Chapter 1: New Arrival

"Did you hear? Someone new is coming today; she is going to work at the new coffee stand!" Bailey said excitedly. She knew London wouldn't care, but she couldn't wait to tell Zack and Cody, two of her friends.

"So? New people come on everyday. Some even leave. Don't get excited over every person, Bailey. It distracts you from my beauty," London replied while looking at herself in the mirror.

Of course, Bailey thought. London was almost acting smart and unselfish, but then, it all changed. "Whatever. I'll be back; I'm going to go tell Zack and Cody the news."

In a few minutes, she was at the Juice Station and was sitting down at the stools.

"Did you hear? Someone is coming today! They're going to work right over there," she said, pointing over at the newly built coffee stand. "Mosbey wants me to keep it on the DL though, so don't tell anyone."

Zack nodded. "How hot do you think she'll be? Hopefully very," He said and saw Bailey rolling her eyes. "I was kidding! If I were to ask anyone, it'd be Cody. Speaking of, have you told him?"

"Not yet, but he'll soon know!" Bailey said leaping off of her chair. "Cody! Cody!"

"Yes, Bailey?" He said hopefully.

"Someone new is coming today! A new worker, she is our age and she'll work at the coffee shop." She said once again.

"Oh, yea," He replied, a little disappointed. He quickly brought his mood up. "I heard. Her name is Crystal. I know her from camp a long time ago." He smiled slightly, the memories filling his head. She had been his first serious kiss. Back then, though, their cabins had been in a war, and it was a bit like Romeo and Juliet, now that he thought about it. They had to sneak away in order to be together.

"What does she look like? Tell me! I need to know!" Bailey said impatiently.

"When I last saw her, she had long, straight, black hair with a single blue streak framing her face. She had blue eyes, and was medium tall. But again, it's been a while. She might have changed a lot since then." He smiled again, now he had her image in his head.

"You mean that chick you were in love with at summer camp forever and a day ago?" Zack asked, suddenly coming over to where they were standing. This made Cody blush intensely.

"Awww, a camp sweetheart!" Bailey said. "How romantic!"

"Yeah, but our cabins hated each other! We were always playing pranks on each other. The boys' cabin won in the end, though." Zack said.

"I wouldn't be so sure about that."

"Crystal!" Cody said. Behind Zack, a girl around 15 and a half stood. She still had jet black hair, but the blue streak was replaced with red and her eyes had turned a little greener than before. She had a sweet smile and was about the same height as Zack, a little shorter than Cody.

"You guys totally fell for the marshmallow foam. You should have heard Ryan, he was frantic. He literally thought Rikku had rabies!" Crystal said, chuckling at the memory.

"Yeah, but Max ran off with Julius' underwear! You should have seen her face. It was hilarious. She so embarrassed!" Zack said.

"Well, it's all of the past, now." Cody said to break it up. He smiled at Crystal. "Welcome aboard, Crys. This is Bailey, by the way. Bailey, Crystal."

"Hi Crystal, nice to meet you!" Bailey said excitedly.

"Nice to meet you, too. Thank you, Cody. A boy with some manners." She glared at Zack playfully. "Anyways. How's life? Has this boat been treating you well?"

"Most definitely. We are finally away from our mom. She is a great woman, but still annoying at times. It's cool to be finally free." Cody said informatively.

"Yeah, she seemed a little clingy at camp. I thought it was really weird that they had the parents come visit us. It seemed a little… Out of place, you know?" Crystal said while looking down at her shoes. She looked up at Cody's face and blushed deeply. "No offense, about the clingy thing."

"No problem, I agree. She was determined to make sure we became friends. She forced us to bring you a cake." Zack said this time. Crystal looked at him with relief. She was happy to be looking away from Cody. She still really liked him.

"I can't believe Max threw it in the river like that! I watched her swimming when…" She looked back at Cody. "Never mind…"

"OK, I am really confused. Who is Max?" Bailey asked.

"Max is an old friend from the hotel," Cody explained. "She and Crys shared a cabin at camp."

"So…" Bailey started. "Max is a girl?"

"Yeah, a really sporty one, too." Crystal replied. "Well, I'd better get unpacked. Good seeing you all!"

"Here, I'll help you with your stuff," Cody said quickly. He and Crystal walked away, both blushing slightly.

"So, let me get this straight," Bailey said apprehensively, "Cody and Crystal were… a couple at camp? Is that why they are acting so weird? Cause they are blushing a lot. I don't usually notice those things, but today I'm seeing lot's of it."

"Yeah, Cody would always sneak off and meet up with her. Max told me later that the girls saw them making out, like major. They were apparently pressed up on a tree!" Zack replied.

"Scandelous!"
