Hey guys! Sorry I've been gone for almost a year. This school year was crazy! But now that it's summer, I'm hopefully back in business if you are all ready to continue reading. So you know I had to include Connie in this chapter because she's awesome. ;) This is kind of a reference to the very first episode of SWAC. I hope you like it!

A Voyage on the Sea: Chapter 1

Sonny's POV

"Rise and shine, Sonny! Today's the day of your big cruise!" my mom yells from the kitchen.

I yawn and stretch, trying to take my time savoring the peace and quiet of our apartment. This coming week would be a crazy one. Between all of the fun things to do on the ship and all of the people going on our trip, I am sure there will never be a dull moment. Plus, Mr. Condor booked excursions at each of the ports that we are going to: climbing Dunn's River Falls in Jamaica, snorkeling in Grand Cayman, segwaying in Cozumel, and relaxing on a private beach in Castaway Cay. I can't wait to get started! But first I have to face the hardest task of all... saying goodbye to my mother.

After many attempts to reassure her that everything will be okay, she still had the need to remind me to wear lots of sunscreen, take pictures, and stay safe.

"Yes, mom, I know, you've told me a thousand times!" I tell her, rolling my eyes and smiling.

"Are you sure you have everything packed?" she asks, concern showing on her face.

"I should. I have everything I could possibly need. You made sure of it!" I remind her, reminiscing on her extremely thorough packing rituals.

"Oh, yes, yes, that's right. Well, have fun! Call me when you arrive at every port!" She gives me a giant bear hug and waves with tears in her eyes.

Out of compassion, I say, "Don't worry, mom, I'll only be gone for a week! And I'll have Nico and Grady to look out for me."

"Alright. Just be safe and have fun! Don't get into trouble. Oh, and remember everything I've told you!" she calls out.

"I will. Bye, Mom!" I wave and, suitcase in hand, head out the door toward the scheduled meeting place outside of Condor Studios.

Author's Note: Sorry, this one was short. Lol they haven't even left yet. I'm so evil! Anyway, tell me what you think and if I should keep going. I really think that I could get into this one but only if it's worth it! So please let me know. Love you all and thanks for sticking with me!
