!#$&()+

Maddie and London ended up going directly to London's suite. They yelled a quick goodnight to the twins, and entered the room. With a loud exhale, Maddie flopped on the couch.

"It's been a long day," she moaned. London agreed wholeheartedly. Her hand was still sore as she entered the kitchen to put some ice on it. She was exhausted and just wanted to sleep now. But that wasn't going to happen until she talked to Maddie.

"So, what do you want to do?" Maddie asked, getting up and sitting across from London at the kitchen table.

"I need to talk to someone," London informed her, beginning to cry. It startled Maddie, as she got up and went over to London.

"London, what's wrong?" Maddie asked, desperately trying to calm London down. After a while, she finally calmed down a bit.

"I'm just really confused. I think me and Cody had a moment in that hospital. He told me that I deserved better then Luke. It was so sweet. It almost sounded like he felt the same way about me as I do about him. Now I'm seriously thinking about telling him, but then again, I don't think I should. I just don't know what to do," London clarified. Maddie bit her lip.

"Maybe you should tell him. Maybe it's the right thing to do," Maddie recommended.

"I can't just live my life on maybes. I have to know, for sure, what's right," London answered. Maddie smiled.

"If you think he feels that way about you, you should tell him." London contemplated Maddie's words. She thought he felt the same, but she wasn't sure.

"I really don't know. I mean, why would he? I'm conceited, snobby and stupid," London observed, hugging her knees.

"London, don't say that. Your not any of those things," Maddie stated comfortingly. London smiled slightly through her tears.

"Well, evidently, Luke thought I was," London considered. Maddie tilted her eyebrows.

"Luke is a big fat loser. Not to mention a jerk," she countered. London nodded in consensus.

"Well, might as well do something fun," London advocated.

"Okay! I can't stand this anymore!" Maddie yelled. London was taken aback by the sudden outburst.

"What!" London replied. Maddie sighed and plopped down on a pillow on the floor.

"Something happened at the hospital today," Maddie began. London's eyes widened.

"Um, what happened?" London asked, a little hesitantly.

"When Zack and I were in the waiting room, uh…I kind of kissed him," Maddie revealed. London's jaw dropped.

"Kind of?" London said in a barely audible voice, suddenly becoming more interested in Maddie's life then her own.

"I'm not exactly sure how it happened. He was just getting on my nerves so badly. He wouldn't shut up. It was the only way to shut him up!" Maddie exclaimed, trying to quickly explain her actions. London started laughing. She didn't know why, and she couldn't stop herself. Maddie looked sort of anxious at London's reaction. But the laughter proved to be contagious as Maddie burst into giggling fits too.

"I can't believe you kissed Zack!" London said hysterically through her snickering.

"And he's taking me to formal!" Maddie replied. London stopped laughing.

"That's just kind of scary," she teased. Maddie rolled her eyes.

"Hey, maybe you should ask Cody," Maddie joked.

"Very funny," London cackled.

"You do know you can't tell anyone about the kiss, right?" Maddie asked, fiddling with her French tipped nails.

"I won't, as long as you don't tell anyone I like Cody," she answered. Maddie looked to the floor.

"So, your not going to tell him?" Maddie said this as more of a comment then a question.

"I don't think I should," London guessed. Maddie said nothing, but deep down, wished London could express how she felt to Cody. Maddie would respect London's wishes and stay out of it...for now.

A/N: Sorry that was so short. And just to tell you, everyone's out of school for spring break. That's why everyone's at the Tipton in this. The formal at the girls' college is a spring festivity. Chapter five should be up soon. Ciao!
