The bell rang and the teacher arrived, while Cody followed afterwards. Bailey still guilty from what she did decided to take a look at him and as soon as she did, she was surprised to see him concentrating on the teacher and actually paying attention for once. She decided to go talk to him after class.

As the bell rang Cody left the room hastily going to the next class, unbeknownst Bailey who was looking for him. The next class it was still the same, he was pretty much ignoring her and now she was even more guilty, she noticed that Cody wasn't his usual self, without the flirting and self-praise, he was in fact very quiet which was so unlike him.

During lunch…

Maya and Zack were the first ones who arrived at the cafeteria, and soon they were followed by Cody and Marcus. Zack and Maya sat beside each other while Cody and Marcus were seated across them. Zack was still not talking to Cody, so Maya decided to do something about it. She teasingly twiddled with Zack's hair, catching his attention, they were now looking at each other fiercely. Zack started to lean in on a kiss, and as soon as their lips were centimeters apart Maya stopped him with her hand on his lip "Not so fast lover boy! I won't give you a kiss, if you and Cody won't make up!" Zack could only nod.

Cody and Marcus didn't know what they were talking about because they were discussing about a new application on Marcus' iphone.

"So Cody I have written a new song, wanna check it out later after class?" Zack told Cody. He then looked over to Maya, who responded with a smile.

Cody was surprised that Zack was talking to him again, so he looked at Maya, only to be greeted by a grin, so he smirked back at her, knowing that it was all Maya's doing. "Yeah sure dude. I kinda missed hanging out with my bro." he replied with a smile.

"What about me?" Marcus insisted, and so they ended up laughing then Marcus interrupted "Seriously!"

Cody then felt his phone vibrate and he received a text "Some chick's staring at you across the room, somebody you know?" it was from Maya.

He looked over to where Maya was referring and saw Bailey who looked the other way, when Cody caught her staring at him, he texted Maya back "That's Bailey."

"That's the infamous Bailey? She doesn't look rude or mean, in fact she's kinda pretty."

"Well there's more to her that meets the eye. And I didn't say that she was not pretty"

"Do you want me to talk to her?"

"No that's okay, I'm avoiding her from now on."

"Okay, but you know, you didn't deserve to be talked that way."

"I know. But it was still somewhat my fault for treating her the way I did."

"Now you're defending her? Did I hit you pretty hard in the head?"

"No. I'm just saying that I'm just as responsible as she was for the fight."

"You like her, do you?"

Cody was surprised, he was now choking and now he got the attention of the crowd, Marcus offered him some water and when he stopped choking he stood up and said "I'm going to get some fresh air." And so he left, Maya then knew that her theory was correct.

Bailey realized that Cody was leaving and thought to herself that it was the time to talk to him. She decided not to go yet since it would be suspicious to exit right after Cody did, so about five minutes later, she excused herself from the table saying she was going the ladies room.

Running through the halls, she saw him outside the building. When she was about to speak Cody beat her to it and said something to her first.

"Look I know we're both mad at each other, you don't want to see me, I don't wanna see you, so let's do ourselves the favor of not speaking to each other again okay!"

Bailey's POV

That was the last thing that Cody said to her, leaving her speechless. A few days have passed, and Cody was doing a good job avoiding her, during class Cody switched his seat so that he was far from Bailey, when they passed by the halls Cody would either look down on the floor or be busy with his phone.

Cody's change in attitude was noticed by almost everybody, he wasn't flirting, and he was quiet. The people knew who to blame and it was Bailey, sometimes people would even glare at her, but the most noticeable crowd was his fan girls, which was made by Reina. She knew that Reina was mad at her because ever since their 'little' incident, Cody wouldn't flirt back with her and preferred being alone or with his band and Maya. Her roommates even gave her a bad time, they would sometimes mess with her things, but she just ignored them and went on with her life.

One afternoon, as she was walking to her locker, she saw a piece of paper, and it wrote "meet me at the field near the lake, after class" there was even a heart attached to it. She wondered who it was and couldn't help but smile at the note, she thought that it could be Zack, but then it could be anybody.

As class finally ended, she was anxious to go there. As she arrived, no one was there, and then she noticed that she was standing at the ground marked with an X, as she looked up, a bucket of flour fell on top of her, she then heard someone say "fire!".

The next thing she knew was that there were bunch of girls aiming at her with what look like balloons filled with water, she still couldn't see clearly with all the flour on her face. And then she was hit with a bunch of water balloons she couldn't help but cry and she felt pain, next thing she knew was that she laid on the ground unconscious.

Normal POV

Cody was on his usual place near the lake and he just laid there, it became his daily routine after class, and he would bring his sketch pad, and draw the view of the lake. It was one of the many talents, that people didn't know, but only Zack and Maya. Being comfortable, he suddenly heard girls shrieking and laughing so he couldn't help but go to the place where the sound came from.

He then saw Bailey lying on the ground unconscious, and her body was wet and filled with flour, in instinct he run up to her and stopped the girls. He then picked her up and carried her bridal style. He then looked at Bailey's face and he felt guilty, he knew that the girls picked on her because of him.

He then went over to Maya's room knowing that she was given a room for herself only. As he knocked on the door Maya was surprised at what she saw, then helped Cody by opening the door, and led him to the bed where he placed Bailey there.

"What happened?" Maya said in a surprised tone.

"A bunch of girls, threw water balloons on her, rendering her unconscious." He replied. Maya then gave her a "did you do something with this" look. Cody just shrugged, he said that he was just lying on the field then he heard the noise and saw her attacked.

Cody was leaning against the wall and Maya started undressing Bailey because she was soaking wet, she then looked over at Cody. He then looked at her "What?"

"Bathroom now!" Maya replied, Cody agreed reluctantly.

As soon as Maya was finished with changing her clothes she then took a basin filled with water and a sponge, she gave it to Cody. She walked outside the door when Cody asked "Where are you going?" And what am I supposed to do with this?" as he held out the sponge.

"I'm going to get Zack. And you should wipe her face, you know." She replied.

"How bout I get Zack and you deal with this."

"Nope. Because one thing's for sure, if you were the one to tell Zack about this, he would be furious and blame the whole thing on you." And with that she walked to the door but before she left "No funny business!"

Cody then looked at her, her face and her hair were still covered with flour, he then grabbed the sponge and started wiping her face. As soon as the flour was removed, he saw that her face was beautiful, he had never seen her this close before. Cody stopped and just stared at her face, when suddenly Bailey woke up and opened her eyes, and they were now looking at each other.
