Chapter 2. Flying Pigs

Zack and Cody walked out onto the deck and stopped when they noticed Woody and London stood staring into the distance, Bailey was stood behind and was giggling to herself. Zack stood in between Woody and London who seemed to not notice the blond haired boy had arrived. He looked at Woody then back to London. He stepped back and looked to Bailey.

"What are they doing?" Zack asked. Bailey giggled but tried to speak.

"They are watching for more pigs." She laughed.

"Pigs?" Cody asked.

"I told that if they saw pigs flying over the ship, they would expect loads of money."

"Why did you tell them that?" Zack asked.

"It's a game my cousins used to play on me and my sisters, to see who was fooled. Guess I got both of these two." She laughed.

"Now why didn't I think of that?" Zack wondered.

"Zack!" Cody said as he step forward. He stood in front of Woody and waved his hand in front of his face. Woody hit it away. "Woody stop it. Bailey is just joking. You are going to hurt your eyes or something."

"Aw leave them alone, they look peaceful." Zack laughed. Cody watched as Zack and Bailey whispered and giggled together. Cody turned from them and went back to London. He shook her arm and she let fly with it, hitting Cody and sending him sprawling.

"Quit it Zack." London said. Cody looked up to her and listened as Zack carried on laughing behind him.

"I am not Zack, if that was meant for him, he is stood behind you, take a swing." Cody said.

"Hey!" Zack said.

"Look London, Woody. Bailey is messing with you. Pigs don't fly." He said as he got up and tried to get their attention. They looked at him.

"Really?" London asked.

"Yes really." Cody said. London turned to look at Bailey. "I knew that." She said as she grabbed her purse, turned on her heels and walked away, ashamed. Woody also looked to them.

"Spoil my fun." Woody said. He walked away and Cody watched as Zack and Bailey continued to giggle.

"That was a great prank Bailey. I never knew you were into pranks." Zack said as they walked over to the juice bar.

"Sometimes. Me and my brothers and sisters would play pranks on each other all the time." She replied.

"Remind me to give you some lessons in Zack Pranks 101." Zack said. Cody grabbed his brother's arm and pulled him off his chair and off to the side. "What?"

"Don't be getting my girlfriend into any trouble with your silly pranks." Cody said.

"Firstly, girlfriend? Not quite yet and secondly, I have finally found someone I can share my wisdom with. I tried with you and you were a dud."

"You tried to convince me to climb out onto the balcony of the hotel in a storm. Good thing mom came home." Cody said.

"And there's the proof." Zack said.

"I thought you were going to help me get Bailey."

"I am. Time to get started." Zack replied.

The following morning Zack had gone into Cody's room early to help him dress for the day. Not a normal thing for the brothers, but Zack was convinced it was the way Cody dressed, that was putting Bailey off. So Cody found himself sat on the floor of his room, covered in clothes. Zack continued throwing them out of the closet, each one hitting Cody.

"How is this going to help?" Cody asked.

"Don't question my methods. I don't question you when you cook." Zack mumbled from the closet.

"No, because you will anything, even if I do it wrong, which I don't." Cody said.

"Put that on." Zack said handing him a few clothes. Cody went into the bathroom and changed. In a while he emerged in a smart t-shirt and jeans.

"I normally wear this anyway, what's so different?" Cody asked.

"This." Zack said handing him a jacket. "Trust me." The brothers soon left for the class room. They entered and took their seats. Bailey was sat talking with London. Zack tapped Cody on the back and indicated he should say hi.

"Hi Bailey." He said. Bailey looked up.

"Oh hey Cody. Nice jacket." She said. Cody looked to Zack and then back to Bailey.

"Thanks, it was Zack's idea........" Cody started to say but Zack hit him on the back. "I mean......i love this jacket." It was working, Cody thought. Miss Tuttweiler walked in and faced the group.

"Okay class time for the Science Fair Project. I am going to pair you up and you will both work on a new and exciting project to display and next weeks Fair." She said. Cody was getting excited. He and Bailey always worked together on projects, this was going to be his chance to spend time with her. Miss Tuttweiler was pairing people up and Cody looked to her.

"So that leaves, Bailey with................"
