"Hey thanks Freddie for taking me with you," Carly said while sitting on a bench at the indoor dock entrance.

"Why thank me?" Freddie asked with a smile. "It's my pleasure,"

"Yeah," Carly said. "But if I didn't get this chance, I was probably stuck at a Puckett family reunion," they both shivered at the idea.

"Well," Freddie added shyly, "she wouldn't have invited you anyway,"

"Why not?" Carly asked. "I'm her best friend,"

"Exactly," Freddie smirked.

"Hey Freddie!" Freddie heard.

"Cody?" Freddie said. Cody ran through the entrance to give Freddie a tight man hug. "How are you doing man?"

"I'm okay," Cody said with a smirk. "Hey and this is Carly, no?"

"Hey," Carly introduced herself, "you must be Cody, I heard a lot about you,"

"Is she like your girlfriend?" Cody asked as she pointed to Carly.

"No," Carly and Freddie replied in unison, "she's my best friend,"

"A female best friend," Cody said with a smile "Interesting.". Suddenly two bewildered boys at the same age of Carly, Cody and Freddie entered the entrance.

"Oh right, that's Zack, Cody's twin brother," Freddie said. "And I'm not sure who the other is."

"I'm Woody," Woody blew his nose in his hand and reached it out to Freddie and Carly, "Cody's lovable roommate and Zack and Cody's best friend."

Freddie just lifted his hand and said "Hi," Carly decided to do the same. To don't make him feel bad they didn't give Zack their hand either.

"So what are you doing here?" Freddie asked to Zack and Woody.

"We are going to visit Woody's cousin," Zack explained. "To see the meat statue of hers,"

Freddie and Carly looked at each other for a moment with big eyes.

"You're Sam's cousin?" Carly asked to Woody.

"Yep," he said. "You know her?"

"I know her alright?" Freddie said and Carly barely suppressed a chuckle. "I'm surprised she didn't eat the meat statue,"

"The statue has already exceeded expiration date when Spencer gave it to her," Carly said.

"Still," Freddie said. Woody and Zack left the entrance. Cody decided to lead Carly and Freddie to the boat. They chattered while Carly's and Freddie's suitcases were rolling behind them. The three gossiped about Woody's and Sam's family and sometimes about their own families too. Much to Cody's surprise and relief the subject girlfriend or relationships wasn't mentioned as his break-up with Bailey was kinda sensitive. Cody never told Freddie about Bailey. They stopped penning when Cody was sent to sea school.
