This story was a request from toxicstoblame and I decided this would be a good concept for me to try so hopefully you enjoy.

Cody was absolutely annoyed right now. Currently in loser class, he had to hear Sierra's crying because Chris showed the footage of him trying to vote her off.

Gwen and Courtney giving him cold stares did not help his case.

Currently Heather, Alejandro, Owen, Noah, Izzy, and Tyler were sleeping by now. The only ones awake were Gwen and Courtney and they still took the time to glare at the geek.

"Okay why are you two so mad?" Cody decided to bite and ask.

"Because you tried to vote off Sierra when you should have voted off Heather!" Courtney said angrily.

"She's been annoying me for seven episodes now, I wanted her gone." Cody said, he knew there were eight episodes due to the aftermath but he's been competing for seven of them so he did not count that episode.

"Cody, I get Sierra's annoying but she isn't a hindrance to our team, Heather is." Gwen argued.

"She's a hindrance to me. She steals my clothing and won't leave me alone!" Cody now found himself getting angry, he didn't even care if he was speaking so harsh to his crush right now.

"You could have just talked to her. And now you've made her upset!" Courtney said angrily, "Look, you need to make things right with her in the challenge next time or you will suffer the consequences for it!"

Cody looked to see Gwen wasn't trying to defend him, she seemed to completely agree with Courtney.

"Fine, I'll try and talk to her but don't blame me if she doesn't listen." Cody rolled his eyes.

After a while Courtney and Gwen went to sleep, and Cody stayed up feeling very off.

He looked at Courtney, the one who held his life for ransom back in Island. While she did clear up she was lying about letting them die, he still didn't like her at all. The fact she was threatening him right now disturbed him.

He looked at Gwen, he was a bit upset to see she didn't take his side. Even if they probably weren't gonna be a couple, he figured they could still be there for each other right? Well apparently not since she sided with Courtney the whole time, I guess the Amazon incident didn't help matters.

He then saw Sierra, he clenched his fists angrily, Sierra had been making his life miserable since she was introduced to the show. All she did was stalk him and steal his stuff, no one seemed to care.

He couldn't sleep with those three haunting him with their presence, he needed to leave them.

Cody then walked up to first class, he didn't care if he was breaking the rules. He needed to escape his team, because as of now, no one truly cared about him.

Cody began sleeping in the corner of the room, not wanting to wake up Lindsay or DJ when suddenly he felt a looming shadow over him.

"Uh… I'm blanking on your name. Oh right your name is Cody." Lindsay said before getting a questioning look, "What are you doing here anyway?"

"My team's bugging me." Cody sighed in annoyance.

"Aw sorry Cody, but what did Heather and Courtney do anyway?" Lindsay asked.

"It's not even Heather this time. It's Sierra, Gwen, and Courtney. Sierra got all upset because I tried to vote her off…" Cody began before Lindsay interrupted, "Wait how did she know you did that?"

"Chris was a jerk and showed the votes. She started crying and Gwen and Courtney are currently taking her side. And now I have to spend a whole challenge catering to Sierra's needs next episode because their needs matter more than mine apparently!" Cody said angrily before sighing, "They're probably right. I should probably apologize for voting off Sierra, I did do it behind her back instead of rejecting her properly."

"But… she's kind of crazy though." Lindsay told Cody.

"What do you mean?" Cody asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I mean, Sierra sounds totally bonkers. Don't you remember that song she sang back in Germany, she kind of claimed you as her property or something, she seems totally unhinged so you did have a right to vote her off." Lindsay pointed out.

"I guess you're right." Cody smiled, "I need to reject her properly though. If she doesn't accept it then I'm giving up on her."

"That sounds very smart Cody." Lindsay said happily, "Good luck on that. You're probably gonna need it."

"Thanks Lindsay, good luck with DJ, I feel really bad for both of you." Cody said.

"Thanks. Also if you want a place to sleep, I can't let you stay here but I think the dining hall would be a good spot." Lindsay happily suggested.

"Yeah that does sound like a good place but again thank you for the advice." Cody said before walking out of first class.

As Cody began walking out of first class, he passed through the confessional lost in thought before he bumped into Heather.

"Oh I'm sorry about that Heather." Cody apologized.

"Ugh whatever just…" Heather began before she gave him a scrutinizing look, "Did you just come out of first class?"

"W-What? No I didn't." Cody lied nervously.

"Translation, 'yes I totally did.' Why were you up there?!" Heather asked angrily.

"Because I couldn't stand sleeping near Sierra. I wanted some freedom from her so I snuck in first class. That didn't work out so I'm sleeping in the dining hall." Cody said, half telling the truth because he also didn't want to face Gwen and Courtney either.

"But Sierra's giving you the cold shoulder, you don't need to leave the room." Heather raised an eyebrow, "Cody tell me what's really bothering you."

"Fine. I couldn't stand to be near Sierra, Courtney, or Gwen after how cold they acted after I voted off Sierra. It gave me an uncomfortable feeling so I left. Happy?" Cody said sadly.

"What did Gwen and Courtney do?" Heather asked him.

"They're telling me I need to make up with Sierra and apologize to her. Though I decided I need to reject her properly so I can't apologize to her." Cody said.

"Cody you can't do that!" Heather said incredulously before calming down, "Well, not yet at least."

"What do you mean not yet?" Cody asked.

"If you reject her, she'll probably feel worse and cry like a baby even more. You need to make her happy first before telling her the truth. Calmly might I add. I hate to say it but it's beneficial for the team, but if it doesn't work out here's the deal I'll try and get Gwen and Courtney to vote off Sierra. All you have to do is vote off Courtney with me when I need you to." Heather said.

"You'd help me vote off Sierra?" Cody asked.

"It's for the good of our team's game and I can't stand her craziness anyway. We already have one Izzy so yes I will help you." Heather nodded.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Cody said happily.

"You're welcome, now go to bed, we need the full team well rested." Heather told Cody.

Cody nodded before leaving for the dining hall. Heather watched him go with a sympathetic look, truth be told she did feel bad for Cody.

She just wouldn't admit it since it would damage her tough exterior, besides she already had Gwen and Courtney to deal with so she wasn't exactly going to interfere unless Sierra went too far but now she's found the perfect opportunity to gain a new ally against Courtney and Sierra, she had to take it.

Besides if she could stop something she was heavily against, who is she to stop that?
