Sorry it took so long, guys. I hope this one is a little longer. And this time this one has more correct grammar than the last chapter as many have seen (for example the ridiculous typos. I didn't notice them until after I added it.)

Chapter 3

Cody looked at his brother with a surprised look on his face. He thought his brother wanted him to stay in this class so he wouldn't embarrass him, but what actually happened surprised him. Zack actually transferred into his class? Something definitely was up.

"Zack? I thought you were embarrassed to have me in the same PE class as you? What happened?" Cody asked with confusion.

"Cody, I also said I was the cuter twin and you were the one with a girl stalking you. A creepy, obsessive girl, yes, but still a girl. Cody, I said a lot of things I didn't mean the other night. And as for what happened? Well…let's just say an angel talked to me. So, are we gonna show them how twins rule the game or are you just gonna stand there and look at me? Which, by the way, that's kinda freaking me out…"

"Sorry," Cody apologized. Zack smiled and led them over to the others. The day went on and as they walked into the Tipton lobby, Cody was still bewildered at the fact that Zack, the usually selfish twin, actually switched out of his class for Cody. He ran over to the candy counter. Maddie stood behind it reorganizing the candy.

"Hey Cody, what's up?" the candy counter girl asked.

"Oh, nothing much, you'll never believe what Zack did!" Cody exclaimed with excitement.

"Please tell me he exchanged into your PE class." Maddie replied.

"Oh my God, how'd you know!" Cody asked in disbelief. Maddie snickered softly.

"Because I told him he shouldn't be so selfish. If he was you he'd want his older brother there with him to protect him," Maddie replied with a soft smile.

"And he listened just because you said that?" Cody replied.

"Yeah…and also I said I'd pay him 5 bucks and take him to a movie, as friends of course." Cody looked at Maddie like she was heartless.

"What? Cody, Zack won't be upset. I mean next to the prom, this is as close to a date as he's going to get." Maddie reassured Cody. Cody nodded and bought a chocolate bar and ran over to the elevator. He pushed the button for the 23rd floor. As the doors closed, Zack ran up to the candy counter.

"Maddie! It worked, and it was awesome! Me and Cody kicked butt!" Zack explained with excitement.

"Cody and I," Maddie corrected.

"Since when did you go to our school?" Zack asked, obviously not getting Maddie had corrected him. He bought a 3 Musketeers bar and smiled at Maddie.

"Maddie, I know I'm only 13, but I really can't wait until our date on Friday." Zack said with sincerity. With that said, Zack took his candy bar and ran up to the elevator and went to the 23rd floor.

"Date. If we're going as friends…then why do I feel so guilty?" Maddie did feel guilty. Maybe she should give Zack a chance. They have known each other for a year now and she knew Zack wouldn't do anything to hurt her. Maybe she would give him a chance on Friday and actually consider it a date.
