Maddie was organizing the candy counter---as usual---when Cody walked up, "Hey Maddie."
"Hey Cody. How's Highschool?" Maddie inquired.
"Easy. In fact, I've never seen anything so easy in my life!" Cody bragged.
"Maybe you should just skip your grade, get your diploma, and go to college at Harvard?" Maddie asked.
"Because I don't want to leave Casey behind." Cody replied.
Casey was actually Maddie's neice. Maddie's older brother, Matt who was in his early 30s now.
"Please, Cody, I've known Casey since she was a baby. She's my neice. If anything, she's going to go to college with you at Harvard." Maddie said with a roll of her eyes.
"Okay, if you think so. I'll have to talk to her about it." Cody smiled.
"Good. Hey, where's Zack?" Maddie inquired.
"She's at Max's house. They couldn't stay away from eachother and Max's parents are out on vacation to the Bahamas. They won't be back for another month (wink-wink)." Cody replied.
"That's nice. I hope they don't make any wrong decisions though. That's what Matt did with Casey's mom. They had a baby boy, but he died soon after his birth." Maddie implied.
"I'm sorry." Cody smiled affectionately.
"Its okay. Go on. Find Casey. I'm sure you two want to go to the amusement park today with eachother." Maddie chuckled.
Cody laughed too, "Yea, well, see you tonight."
"Bye Cody." Maddie smiled.
Zack came through the sliding doors of the hotel, he looked depressed.
"What's a matter, Zack?" Maddie inquired.
"Max broke up with me." Zack replied sadly.
"I'm sorry. Would you like to come over to my house and have some hot cocoa?" Maddie asked, "I'm getting off my shift in a few. If you want to that is---."
"No! I want to." Zack said heartily.
"Good. Let me just lock up the register." Maddie replied, locking up the blue machine.
"Come on." Maddie said, grabbing her jean purse.
Zack followed her, a sly smile on his face. Max didn't really break up with him. He just wanted to get closer to Maddie...
