Long hours...

"Okay I think we're done here," Maddie said stretching her back, Cody stretched with her,

"Thanks sis." She said placing the last box in the corner, "Well cya," She siad heading out the door, her sister slammed the door behind her,

"That was a nightmare.." Maddie groaned,

"She seems...Interesting," Cody sighed, "Hey um, who are you going to the ball with?" Cody asked, Maddie snapped,

"Oh my gosh! I forgot it was tonight!" She gasped, she tugged Codys arm and ran home,

MADDIES SUITE

She ran threw her closets,
"Looking for something?" He asked taking a bite of his bannana.

"I'm looking for my old prom dress!" She yelled, and threw her stuff around the room, Cody cocked an eye browe and shut her door, "This what your looking for?" He asked pointing to the pink dress behind the door,

Maddie had a sign of releif.

"Thanks Cody," She said getting it down, "Hey, who are you going with?" She asked,

"No one, You may not have noticed but there are no other ids in this hotel," He said, Maddie laughed,

"Well, you could always come anyway to serve the guests," She said, Cody thought a second, he had an idea,

"Hey Maddie, do you-"

"I gotta go get ready, I'll be in the bathroom if you need me," She said closeing her bedroom door, Maddie was his only choice, not that it was a bad one, he never really had an interest in Maddie what's so ever,

But...he didn't want to show up at the dance alone,

Cody walked to the bathroom door and gave a quiet knock, but with her in the shower it was hard to hear,

Cody stood there for few seconds and gave up, he walked out of her suite and into the lobby,

"Hello Cody, not causing any scandleisem?" He asked,

"That's Zacks job," He informed,

"Ah," Moseby said smiling, "I've never seen you this happy," He said,

"Well yes, My guests are happy and when they're happy so am I,"

"Yeah right its cause nothings gone wrong in the past few days since Zacks been gone," He growled.

"That too.." He said walking off,

Cody sat there,

"Ello lil blond person," Esteban greeted from behind, Cody turned around startled,

"Oh hi Esteban, shouldn't you be working?" He asked,

"I saw you sitting there and I thought you were sad about something," He said,

"Well..not sad, just thinking alot,"

"About what?"

"Nothing its stupid,"
"I bet it's not,"

"Alright alright.." He sighed, Esteban sat next to him, "You have my attention,"

Cody took a deep breath, "Well..You know how the Tipton Ball is tonight?"

"Yes," He answered.

"And how we need dates?" He asked again,

"Yess," He said,

"And well..There's someone I wanna ask but that persons older then me, and that person has a date already, but since there are no other kids around here-"

"Your asking me to the dance? It's so sudden!" Esteban gasped, Mr, Moseby looked over his desk, Cody shook his head,

"I'm not asking you!" He said,

"Oh good.." He said breathing,

"I wanna ask Maddie," He confessed, he blushed harshly,

"Miss Maddie? Oh im sure she'd love to go with you, you are how you say, adorable?" He asked,

Cody shrugged, "But I think she's already gonna go with someone else,

Esteban scratched his forhead, "I think...You should ask her now," He said,

"Are you crazy! She'll think im crazy!" Cody shouted,

"Ok ok! Don't ask her!" He said,

"Esteban who's side are you on?" Cody yelled,

"The side that's right!" He cried into the other room, Cody rolled his eyes,

London walked to the candy counter.
"Anyone here?" She asked looking under the desk,

"Huh..Maddie usually hides down here.." She said getting up,
"London, she's getting ready for the ball," He sighed,

"Oh okay, can you get me a candy bar?" She asked,

"I don't work here," He said,

"I'll pay you twenty bucks," She said handing the money out, Cody was wide eyed, he ran behind the counter,

"Nuts or no?" He asked pulling out candy bars.
