Cody just looked down at the floor with a disappointed look on his face. Then looked up and gave Stephanie the puppy dog eyes.

Stephanie caved in and agreed to a date with Cody, the brother of the boy she liked.

"So, Friday at seven?" Cody asked, watching Stephanie look for Zack in the bedroom.

"Uh, yeah." Stephanie said not realizing what she just agreed to.

Cody just watched her search for Zack. "You're not into this are you?" He asked with a hurt look on his face.

"Look Cody, it's honestly not you. I like Zack. I'm sorry." Stephanie explained while Cody just stood there. He had no idea what to say.

"Hey Steph!" Zack said as he came out of his room.

Stephanie quickly fixed her hair and walked right into the suite.

"So, listen, I was wondering if you wanted to go out sometime," Zack said. Cody was trying as hard as he could not to hit Zack.

"Sure!" Stephanie said as quickly as possible.

Zack smiled. "Great. I'll see you tomorrow then? At 7?"

"Sounds great." Stephanie could not get the smile off her face. "Just our of curiosity, where do you intend on taking me?"

Zack didn't think of that. He just answered, "The restaurant in the Tipton."

"Oh. Great. I'll meet you there tomorrow at 7." She said as she leaned over and kissed Zack on the cheek. "Bye Zack. Bye Cody." She waved good-bye and walked out of their suite.

Once the door was shut, Cody turned to Zack and chased him around the room.

Once they both stopped running, Cody asked why he would do such a thing.

"All I did was think about what you said. How I would have to wait at least another 10 years for Maddie. And how I could get her incredibly fine sister today." Zack smiled. "So, I took the chance."

Cody just stared at his brother. "You mean, the one time you listen to me, is so you can steal away the girl I like?"

"Pretty much. Yeah."

"Well, I'm going to kick your…"

Just then Carrey walked in after doing a show. "Boys. What's with all the yelling? Moseby's going nuts with all the complaints he's been getting."

"I listened to Cody and now he's mad." Zack explained all innocent.

"No!" Cody jumped up and told his side of the story.

Carrey just looked at the two boys like they were nuts. "Why don't you just find another girl?" She suggested.

"Because," Cody said, "She's here at the Tipton. I would get to see her a lot, in and out of school. There's the convenience factor…"

"Wait. Mom, do you even know who we're fighting over?" Zack asked.

"Now that you mention it." Carey said, "No."

"It's Maddie's younger sister, Stephanie." Cody explained.

"Who happens to like me." Zack added.

"Well, you can't choose who she goes out with for her." Carey said. "Who she picks, she picks. I think the only fair thing to do is you both take her out and whoever she likes best can have her."

"But she already likes Zack."

Zack smiled. "Exactly. So she already picks me."

Carey just looked the two in the eyes and said, "If she likes Zack, she likes Zack. You can't force someone to like you."

Cody just walked into his room and shut the door. He was going to win her heart. One way, or another.

Thanks for the reviews. Fell free to review more if you wish.
