LA Bound
"This is so exciting! I can't believe we're actually here." Maya gushed as we stood in the elevator. I rolled my eyes at her.
"I know. I've been waiting ages to see LA and now we're here. We have to hit the beaches and check out the babes, Codester." Zack nudged his brother who immediately shook his head.
"No way man. I've got all the babe I could want right here next to me." Cody said, wrapping an arm around my waist. I grinned at him and he leant down to kiss my temple. Maya stomped on Zack's foot, not as hard as Barbara used to do to Cody but he still yelped a little.
"And you have a 'babe' already too, buddy-boy." She said as he looked down at his feet.
"Sorry baby."
"You're forgiven." The elevator bell dinged and we piled out into the corridor. Cody led the way down to our hotel rooms and unlocked the door to mine and his. Zack did the same with his and Maya's room across the hall. Both guys dumped their bags on the floor and picked up the girls, bridal-style.
"I love you Bailey." Cody said quietly as he carried me into the room. I laughed.
"I love you too Codykins." When we were inside the room, Cody put me down and I started walking through the suite checking it out while Cody brought the bags inside. He and Zack had a quick conversation in the hall and decided that we would spend an hour sorting our rooms out and meet together again in the main lobby for dinner at the hotel restaurant. After shutting the door, Cody joined me in the bedroom of the suite.
"This is so nice." I said, hugging him.
"Anything for you, sweetie." With that, we set to work unpacking our things for our two week stay. At one point I got distracted looking out the window at the view of the sea. Cody came up behind me and put his hand on my shoulder.
"Is everything okay?"
"Yeah. I was just admiring the view."
"Okay. We're done here. What do you say we grab a shower and get ready to meet Zack and Maya?"
"Sure." I grinned at him and we spent the next twenty minutes showering and getting ready. Finally we made our way out, locking the door carefully behind us. Of course, we had to wait a little bit for the others, typical of them to be running late but we still made our reservations.
"So what are our plans for the next few days?" Maya asked once we'd been seated and ordered our food.
"Well, I think a lot of relaxing is in order." Cody sighed.
"Definitely. And beaches are a must. I was practically drooling over them looking out our window before." I said with a laugh.
"And we need to do some shopping to get souvenirs for the people back home." Zack let out a groan at Maya's suggestion.
"I want to get some groceries as well. I don't feel like eating out every night." Cody said and I nodded.
"It'll be good to get some good food once in a while."
"Come on. We're in LA. We're supposed to be having crappy junk food." Zack complained but Maya just gave him a look.
"Just because you're married now, doesn't mean you can let yourself go, bro." Cody said with a smirk.
"That goes ditto for you then, Codykins." I said, wiping the smile of his face. Maya and I laughed at the boys' expressions.
"Yes dear…" Cody sighed.
"So, how about we sit down after dinner and make a rough plan?" I suggested.
"Yeah. Then we can work our own personal stuff around it." Zack said, pulling Maya closer. She blushed a little and pushed him away.
"Maya, we're married. There's nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, there's a lot to be proud of. A lot of women, and men, don't make it this far in a relationship."
"Says the player." Cody muttered, earning himself a glare from his brother and a gentle slap from me.
"I know. I'm just not eager to have the whole world know about our private life." Maya said.
"I hardly think Cody and Bailey are the whole world." Zack scoffed
"You know what I mean." She frowned at him. We continued the rest of our meal with meaningless chatter. Eventually, we made our way back up to our rooms. It was only ten but we were tired from our flight in so we decided to call it a night.
"Goodnight guys. And congratulations on your wedding." Cody said to his brother as we stood in the hallway between our suites.
"Same to you guys." Zack said. The guys hugged for a second and then stood back as Maya and I hugged tightly before splitting apart and following our guys into the suites. I don't know what Zack and Maya did once their door shut but in the suite I shared with Cody, it got really hot. What can I say? We're newlyweds. Can you really blame us?
The next morning, I woke before Cody but I just lay in his embrace, enjoying the closeness. A knock on the door startled me. Cody didn't stir so I wriggled out of his grasp and made my way to the door, donning my robe on the way. Maya was leaning on the door frame when I finally pulled the door open.
"Hey. Is everything okay?" I asked.
"Yeah. I was just wondering if you wanted to help surprise the guys for breakfast?"
"Uh, sure. Let me just grab some clothes. I'll be right back." Maya nodded and I quickly ran back into the bedroom, grabbing the first clothes I saw and throwing them on. London would just about have a heart attack if she saw what I was wearing but I didn't care. The two of us made our way down to the lobby in silence. Once we got out into the bright morning sunshine, though, we started talking animatedly about the previous night.
"I can't believe Zack can be so sweet. I said with a laugh. Maya poked me in the ribs at that.
"Says you. You're telling me Cody can be like an animal. I would kill to see that."
"Well hands off. You've got your husband and I've got mine."
"I know. I guess we'd both like to see each other's husbands being something they're not in public."
"Yeah. But we're never going to see it." I laughed as we entered the café we'd been looking for. We quickly ordered what we wanted and made our way back to the hotel. When we got back, we found a half asleep Zack, leaning on and pounding on the door to mine and Cody's suite. Maya put her finger to her lips and I giggled silently as she crept up behind him. She slowly slipped her hands over his eyes, pressing a gentle kiss to his cheek.
"Guess who?" I asked after she winked at me. The expression on Zack's face as he recognized my voice was priceless.
"B-Bailey? What are you doing? Cody's on the other side of this door." Zack began panicking and pulled Maya's hands off his eyes. By this time, both Maya and I were bent over laughing. He looked between the two of us, clearly confused.
"What's going on?" Cody pulled the door of our suite open and stood looking at the scene in front of him.
"I have no idea." Zack said, turning to his brother. Maya and I finally stopped laughing and began to explain what had happened.
"Maya and I went out to get breakfast for you guys. We found Zack half asleep in the hall when we came back and…" I trailed off into fits of laughter, leaving Maya to finish the story for me.
"I put my hands over his eyes and Bailey said 'Guess who?' to confuse him." Zack and Cody looked at each other, evidently wondering what they'd gotten themselves into.
"You two are dangerous together." Cody muttered, coming over to me.
"Morning sleepy head." I greeted him with a kiss.
"Do you have any idea how worried I was when I didn't wake up beside you?" He chastised me. I just laughed at him and led him into our suite. Maya did the same with Zack and before long we were all sitting around the table in our suite, sharing the breakfast Maya and I had bought.
"So, Zack, Maya tells me you're quite the gentleman behind closed doors." I said. Zack almost spit out his drink at my off-handed comment.
"What?" Cody was looking at me.
"Oh, don't worry. I know a few things too. I would love to see you get your claws out." Maya laughed, making fake claws and scratching at the air with her hands. Both guys went bright red and could hardly look at each other.
"I agree with Cody. You two should be kept apart from each other. You're dangerous." Zack told us when he recovered enough to talk.
"You're the ones who wanted a joint honeymoon." I reminded them, earning sighs from them both.
"We can't help it that we're good friends who like to talk about everything. And what else were we going to talk about on our way to get breakfast?" Maya asked innocently.
"Anything! Whatever you wanted, apart from your sex lives!" Cody cried, still unable to look at his brother.
Eventually Maya and I got tired of teasing the guys about last night and we cleared up the dishes. Then both couples spent an hour or so getting ready before we met back in the lobby.
"So, Hollywood or Disneyland?" I asked.
"I'm still dead from the plane ride so I think Hollywood is the best choice. I don't want to miss out on all the fun at Disneyland." Maya decided so we made our way out into the beautiful LA sunshine, heading towards Hollywood Hills.
"Hey Zack! Come here for a second!" Maya called as she stood near the base of the famous Hollywood sign. He went over to her and the pair posed for a few photos that Cody and I took before we switched and they took photos of Cody and I. After a while, we made our way down to Hollywood Boulevard and the Walk of Fame where we spent hours walking along, looking at the stars embedded into the sidewalk. Maya ended up buying a poster for some adventure movie that she and Zack loved.
"We can use it for decoration in our home theatre when it's done." She explained. As a wedding gift to both couples, our families had paid for us to build our new homes and they were being built while we were away. Of course, they wouldn't be finished until a while after we got back but the majority of the framing should be done.
By the end of the day, we decided to just order room service for dinner and ate in Zack and Maya's room.
"I can't believe we've been here a whole day. It feels like we've been here for a few hours. Before we know it, the care-free days of our honeymoons will be over and it'll be back to the normal everyday lives at home." Maya said as she snuggled up to Zack on the couch.
"I know. I don't want this to end." I sighed.
"Well, at least we know that once we retire, we have an idea for where we'll have our penthouses." Cody joked from behind me.
"You'd better remember this, Codykins." He just laughed at me and we settled back into meaningless chatter.
All too soon, our two week stay was over. We'd spent hours at the LA beaches, checking out Disneyland, shopping at various malls, and of course, having private time in our rooms at various points. We somberly packed our belongings and made our way to the airport. The flight home was quiet, with Maya and I sleeping on our husbands' shoulders while they talked quietly. We were met with open arms at the airport in Boston with Carrie, Arwin and London waiting to greet us. The whole drive to the Tipton was filled with the four of use telling them all the things we'd seen and done during our trip. When we arrived back at the Tipton, we went into the suite London had given us. It was a double suite meaning it had two separate bedrooms and a main living area. We went into our separate rooms and promptly fell asleep. It wasn't until the next day that we bothered to get our things unpacked. We only had a few days left until we had to get back to work and we spent those days catching up with our family and friends and writing out thank-you notes to everyone for the wedding gifts.
A/N: The rest of the chapters are going to be set with one day per chapter. There is a link on my profile to my polyvore so you can see the outfits of Bailey and Maya for each chapter as I imagine them. If you have any ideas for things that could happen to them, let me know. R&R :)
