12:36 A.M on the Shore of the Island
The gang was on the beach admiring the beauty of the island; it had a great beach, a marvelous forest, a good sized mountain in the center, and it all light up perfectly under the bright full moon. London went out across saying, "I'm going to work on my work moon-tan."
"London," Bailey started, "You can't-"
"Bailey," Cody interrupted, "don't bother, educating London is a bold but ultimately futile quest."
"Well," Zack said looking around, "We're here, what do we do?"
"Simple," Bailey said looking to the forest, "We become the Island's first explorers, Moseby wouldn't allow anyone to actually leave the beach and go into forest, so we can see what it looks like before anyone else."
"So," Zack said understanding what Bailey was saying perfectly, "you want to go out on a late night nature hike."
"Exactly," Bailey said excited, "You guys want to go?"
"No," London yelled from where she was on the beach.
"You want to go out in the forest at night," Cody asked showing his fear of doing something like that.
"Yes," Bailey answered seeing that Cody was uncomfortable, "Are you okay with that?"
"Of course not," Cody answered trying to hide is fear, "Why would I be?"
Zack chuckled, "I could think of several good reasons."
"How about you Zack," Bailey asked, "Do you want to go?"
Zack chuckled again, "You think I'm going to let the two of you go out in the forest alone, of course I'm going."
"NOTING HAPPENED," Cody and Bailey screamed at once.
"Come on guys," Zack said still not believing them, "You can tell me."
"Fine," Bailey responded, "something did happen, we were doing the project, working to get an A, and then we had an intimate conversation which led to making out. We then stripped down and had sex, and cuddled afterward where London found us; oh and I'm pregnant."
Zack just stared at Bailey for a second before finally asking, "Really?"
"No you idiot," Bailey said dropping the act, "That's what would've happened if Cody and I would have were brainless idiots who thought only about sex, but we're not, in fact we're the smartest people on the boat who care only about grades; and so, logically speaking, it would have been out of character for us to do something like that and so one can easily conclude that nothing happened!"
Zack stared a Bailey before giving in saying, "Okay you win; I believe you."
Zack then began walking towards the forest. Cody turned to Bailey and said, "Nicely done."
"Thank You," Bailey said as they began following Zack into the forest, leaving London on the beach to work on her 'Moon-Tan'.
Author's Note:
A shorter chapter, but still effective in progressing the story. I wanted to have a bit of a confrontation between Bailey and Zack over his comments about the cuddling thing. What I had Bailey do was a bit over the top, but that's what I was shooting for this specific Chapter. Please Review.
