I wasn't looking where I was going after managing to ditch Zack, and Woody which caused me to bump into someone. I looked up to a familiar person with dyed black hair, and a smirk lit up my features.

"Long time, no see." I greeted him with his dark green eyes lighting up upon seeing me.

"Cassidy, I haven't really seen you since all that has happened. Well, aside from not talking to you due to my anger towards you." Cody spoke with his hands in his pocket.

I arched a curious eyebrow at him, "I'm sorry for turning you down."

"So how are you doing?" Cody softly inquired avoiding eye contact.

"Missing my bestest friend so I'm not doing too fine. I keep trying to relapse, but good thoughts keep me going. How about the snowflake nerd?" I let out a sigh as his eyes quickly snapped back to me.

"I believe you meant snowflake king," Cody calmly corrected, "and I miss you so much. It's been terrible not having you by my side, but I have only myself to blame."

I processed his words, "it's partially my fault for not exploring my feelings sooner."

Cody looked startled, and caught off guard by my words. An eyebrow of his shot up in curiosity.

"Whatever do you mean, Cassidy?" Cody pulled off an unphased look.

I sighed, and averted my eyes to the floor. I should of kept my mouth shut, but I had to get the truth out there.

"I had some feelings for you for awhile, but that has passed. I'm sure you're finally over it, right?" I managed to let the words flow freely from my lips.

Cody seemed slightly disappointed with my answer. He ran a hand through his hair anxiously, and our eyes stayed locked on each other's, "I never gave up that you would return my feelings."

A sad smile formed on my face, "aren't you dating someone?"

Cody turned a rosy shade of pink, but nodded his head in agreement. He cleared his throat, and a grin found it's way onto his adorable looking face.
"I decided on exploring my options with both genders. I dated this guy for awhile who ended up passing away due to cancer, but I did find my one true soulmate. Her name starts with a B, and I couldn't be happier." Cody gushed with happiness shining in his dark green eyes.

I was happy for him, "that's good news, and I have some in turn."

Cody arched a curious eyebrow at my words, "give the news to me, sissy."

"I have been signed to a record label to record my very first album. I can't remember if I told you or not about my love for music, and how it makes me happier than I've ever been in the past. I'm leaving tonight, and moving on with my life to better it." I chirped watching his excitement falter for a second.

"Does Zack know? What about the others?" Cody quickly countered with worry etched onto his face.

I placed a reassuring arm gently on his shoulder, "they all know including Zack."

Cody still seemed as tense as ever, "and what's the verdict? Aren't you just getting to know Mr. Moseby as your father?"

I watched him cringe upon calling Mr. Moseby my father, and stifled laughter. I had gotten to know my father here, and there without much negativity so I knew I could count on him. I had to admit that it was hard seeing Mr. Moseby as a father, but after all the years spent with him; I knew he wasn't a bad man.

"Everyone agrees that it is the right choice for me even Zack is happy that I've finally succeeded in finding my peace. My life has been a difficult path to lead, and I did get to know my father all throughout my life up to this point. No worries." I grinned up at him causing his tension to evaporate.

"I'm going to miss you, Cassidy. We have gotten on better terms, but at least you are doing better these days. Best friends forever," Cody softly spoke pulling me into a brotherly bear hug.

I almost died by how crushing the hug was. I gasped for air when he released me, and shot him one last smirk.

"Our best friendship will last unto death. Wish me luck!" I enthusiastically chirped, and started around him.

"Good luck, Casablancas!" Cody called after me with a small smile upon his face.

I looked back one last time, and waved. Life was finally going to work out for me in my favor, and I couldn't ask for a more better life.
