I do not own the Suite Life.
Zack woke to the sounds of kids running around screaming and chasing each other. He blinked and sat up on his makeshift bed. Looking around he got his bearings and remembered where he was. He shook his head to drive away any sleep that could possibly come back. Scarlet poked her head in from around the blankets.
"Lets go, you're stuck shopping with me," she teased.
Zack blushed. Normally he would have groaned remembering how long it took his mother to shop but Scarlet was different. Zack blushed even deeper when he realized that she looked prettier than the night before.
"Are you going to stare at me all day or are you going to change," she asked, throwing an outfit at him.
"What're these," Zack asked, pulled from his thoughts of girls when the clothes hit his face.
"Declan's old clothes," Scarlet announced before leaving to round up Cliff and Suri.
Zack changed quickly. He looked down at the clothes. He was now wearing cargo shorts, a black sleeveless muscle shirt, a red zip up jacket, and his shoes. He ran his hands through his hair. Then he walked out and met Scarlet by the door. She gave him a once over then nodded in approval.
"You have muscles," she noted.
Zack blushed again and pulled the jacket tighter around him. Any other time he would have grinned and used that to his advantage but not now; not after everything that happened. Scarlet led the way to a market place type thing. Zack followed behind her and held the bags of food that she bought.
"Why are you getting more food," he voiced his thoughts out loud.
"It's Leon's birthday tomorrow. I want it to be special," she explained.
The rest of the day Zack spent blushing.
Cody's(Kai's) POV
I stood on the roof of the hotel. Sarah was sitting in a deck chair. I looked out into the endless sky. What am I doing, I'm supposed to be finding Zack? We had no idea what kind of powers he had or if someone was really after him.
"Kai, you're going to go blind if you keep staring at the sky," Sarah said.
"I don't care," I snapped.
Sarah looked at me like I was crazy. Maybe I was but right now I had to find Zack. I shut my eyes and slowed my breathing. I had no idea how that would help but I was doing something right?
"Hey Kai, I found your brother," Sarah said.
"How, Where," I asked, eyes wide.
"One of my contacts called from Los Angeles and said they saw a boy helping a bunch of other kids fight off some Obstacles last night," she explained.
"I love you," I blurted out.
The two of us froze. I had only said that because she had found Zack. My face flushed and Sarah was blushing.
"I mean, I … you found…thanks," I finally said looking away in embarrassment.
"No problem," she was as thankful as I was to get that conversation over with.
"So Los Angeles," I offered.
"Yeah," she said.
Preview to the next chapter:
Zack sat on a bench trying to find the Obstacles. It was a trap. Three attacked but before anyone could move, Sarah and Kai jumped out and struck them down. Scarlet, Kylie, Declan, and Tray dropped down from their hiding places and glared at the two.
"Hi Codester," Zack said.
