Thirty minutes later

Vaughn stood looking at his watch. Were in the h*ll were Jack and Irina.

"Syd. Call your dad again. See where he is." Vaughn said irritated.

"Here they are now." Syd said as her parents walked up to them.

"Sorry we're late." Jack announced.

Katya stared enviously at her sister. Jack was wearing white swim trunks and black under armor. She looked over at her husband. He was more muscled than Jack and his hair wasn't grey but he paled in comparison to Jack as a man.

"Kat. What's wrong, you look sad?" Irina asked.

"Nothing."

Nick eyed his sister-in-law. She was wearing a white bikini top and sarong tied around her waist. Jack had his arms wrapped around her shoulders whispering in her ear. He had to admit he was envious of them. He loved Katya but he knew what she was looking for was a man like Jack and he could never live up to those standards.

They walked out onto the top deck where the surf simulator was set up.

"I bet Chase and I will be able to surf the longest." Dixon bragged.

"Whatever. Carrie and I have developed a very simple equation to determine the strength, altitude and position of every wave that could come our way. Well it's not simple, since it involves finding the inverses of." Marshall rambled before Carrie shut him up with her death stare again.

"Let's bet." Nick offered excited. This was his chance to show up Jack Bristow.

"How much?" Weiss asked. He sucked at surfing.

"$100 a couple."

Everyone agreed and the competition began. First up were Kendall and Arian. Ariana managed to stay up for 10 seconds. Kendall flipped backwards two seconds after he stood up on the board.

"Oh, Kendall. With balance like that how did you ever get field rated." Weiss teased.

Everyone laughed and Kendall murmured under his breath. Dixon and Chase were able to stay on their boards for a minute apiece. Unfortunately Marshall and Carrie's formula didn't work in the practical application. They only were able to stay on the board for a combined 9 seconds. Weiss was next.

"Wish me luck." he said to Nadia. She kissed him lightly on the lips.

"Good luck mi osito." she said smiling.

Weiss positioned himself on the board and the waves began to come. He maneuvered his board masterfully. The minutes ticked by. He finally jumped off after 3 minutes. He rejoined the group hugging Nadia to him tightly.

"Whoa man, when did you learn to surf like that?" Vaughn asked impressed.

"I had an excellent teacher." Weiss replied looking at Nadia lovingly.

Nadia took her turn and stayed on the board for 2 minutes. Sydney and Vaughn tied their times to the second. Katya was to preoccupied with staring at Jack and Irina's flirting to pay attention to the waves and wiped out after only 10 seconds.

"Shit!" she cursed rejoining the group.

"Babe what's wrong?" Nick asked taking her face in his hands.

"Nothing." she said pulling away from him.

Once more looking over at her sister smiling in her husband's arms. Nick followed the direction of her gaze and frowned. He would prove he was better than Jack. He swam out to the board and got ready to surf. Nick was a champion surfer in Australia. He impressed them with backflips and ollies. The group gasped and awed and clapped. He looked out at Katya and saw her watching him intently. He rode the persistent waves for 8 minutes before jumping off from fatigue. He rejoined Katya the water dripping off his muscled chest.

"That was so sexy." she said wrapping her arms around his neck.

"Well you should have known. I know how to ride." he said seductively kissing her lips.

Nick smiled to himself when she deepened the kiss and began making out with him. They broke apart when a wolf whistle went up from their party. He looked up to see Irina taking of the sarong wrapped around her waist. He hadn't noticed before but Irina was exceptionally toned and muscled. Her abs were defined for a woman but not over bearing. Her legs were those of a athlete. She really was gorgeous. Katya caught Nick's wandering eyes and pulled away from him angrily. They didn't speak as they watched Irina showcase her impeccable balance as she stayed aboard for 4 minutes. She jumped off.

She walked back over to Jack toweling out her hair.

"Why'd you jump?" Jack asked.

"To give you a bigger challenge. 6 minutes Jack." she said a challenge in her eyes.

"I can go ten." he said.

"Just ten. It was thirty earlier." Irina said.

Jack laughed causing Vaughn, Weiss, and Marshall to cringe. The great Jack Bristow was laughing and he wasn't even torturing anybody. Jack pulled the underarmor over his head causing everyone in the party but Irina to stare in astonishment. His body was excellent for a man his age. Muscled, toned, abs out of this world. He walked past the astonished faces and got ready for his run. Jack stood up on the board shooting Irina one last glance. He rode his eyes focused his body moving in perfect sync with the board. Jack's movements caused an uncomfortable pressure between Katya's legs. It was at this moment that Nick decided to grab her from behind and pull her into his arms.

The feel of his strong arms around her only inflamed the feeling she was getting from watching Jack.

She looked at Jack remembering the intensity of his gaze as he hovered over her that night, oh so long ago. His eyes filled with passion, pain, and need. His thrusts at first were disjointed but had soon found their own rhythm. The touch of his lips on her skin taking her closer and closer to the sweetest highs.

She felt Nick's lips on her pulse point and moaned as she noisily came right there in his arms. Nick tensed, had she just had an orgasm?

Jack looked over at his family when he heard the moan and saw Katya shuddering violently in Nick's embrace. He knew that body language and he knew that noise. Why had she just had an orgasm? He got so caught up with trying to figure out, that he didn't she the large wave coming towards him and was flipped off the board into the surf. He swam back over and rejoined the group. All of which were staring at Katya in confusion and disbelief. Irina handed him a towel, her eyes dark.

"How many minutes was that?" Jack asked trying to end the awkward silence.

"WHAT THE H*LL WAS THAT?!" Nick screamed at Katya.

"What are you talking about?" Katya asked trying to play innocent.

"YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. WHAT YOU JUST DID!"

"I didn't do anything."

"LIKE H*LL YOU DIDN'T. I SAW YOU. YOU WERE WATCHING HIM AND A F*CKING ORGASM!"

Jack tensed. Was he really the case of Katya's situation.

"Nick I assure you, that was because of you."

"YOU'RE LYING."

"No, I'm not. Look at me. I love you and I can't help the effect you have on me."

"I DON'T BELIEVE A WORD YOU'RE SAYING YOU TRATORIOUS WHORE!"

"Hey, there's no need for that. Let's settle this in a civilized manner." Ariana interjected.

"Stay out of their affairs." Kendall said harshly.

"Excuse me." she answered.

"Stop getting in everyone's affairs, leave it alone dammit."

"Yea, it would be best to stay out of it." Dixon said calmly.

"You're agreeing with him?!" Chase said unbelieving.

"I'm just saying."

"How dare you Marcus, I thought you were different."

"Will you stop all this yelling, it's upsetting Mitchell." Carrie added.

"Carrie, you heard the man stay out of it." Marshall whispered.

"I'm not getting into anything Marshall Flinkman."

"Hey don't talk to him like that. He's just trying to help." Vaughn said to Carrie.

"Vaughn, stay out of their marital affairs." Sydney chastised.

"I will not. She has no right to talk to him like that."

"And he can talk to her anyway he pleases."

"Nadia let's say we leave the fighters to fight." Weiss suggested.

"No, I'm not going to stand by and let my sister be treated like that. How dare you suggest I leave and not have her back."

"I just."

"Who's side are you on Weiss."

"No one. But Vaughn has a point."

"What do you mean he has a point!"

Jack and Irina looked at the feuding couples and shook their heads. Jack wolf whistled.

"HEY!" he screamed "Everyone just calm down. It's just now turned noon. So go get something to eat cool down and settle this in a quieter manner. Preferably in quiet."

"Who do you think you are Jack." all the women (except Irina) yelled at once. They stormed off. Nadia looked back at her mom, anger expressed in her eyes.

"Mom. Are you coming or are you on their side?"

Irina looked longingly at Jack. They shared a look between them, he understood. Irina followed throwing on final glance over her shoulder at Jack. Once the women had left, Jack turned on the guys his eyes blazing.

"YOU ASSHOLES! WHAT THE H*ELL WAS THAT! YOU ARE LUCKY TO HAVE WOMEN LIKE THAT! BEAUTIFUL, SMART AND UNIQUE WOMEN WHO USUALLY WOULDN'T GIVE GUYS LIKE US THE TIME OF DAY! DID YOU SEE THE FACE OF THE GUYS THIS MORNING AT BREAKFAST, THEY'RE ENVIOUS OF US AND ARE JUST WAITING FOR US TO SLIP UP AND GUESS WHAT YOU JACKASSES DID, YOU SLIPPED UP! SO YOU BETTER FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO TO MAKE THIS BETTER AND YOU BETTER DO IT QUICK. I DON'T CARE IF YOU HAVE TO GET ON YOU'RE KNEES AND BEG LIKE A DOG! WE HAVE 2 DAYS BEFORE WE REACH HAWAII. SO BY THE TIME WE GET OF THIS F*CKING SHIP IN HONOLULU, YOU ALL BETTER BE HAPPY COUPLES AGAIN! AND IF YOU STILL DON'T THINK I'M SERIOUS LET ME PUT IT THIS WAY. IF I DON'T GET LAID TONIGHT YOU ALL WILL HAVE HELL TO PAY! DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!"

"But Mr. B." Marshall started.

"DO YOU UNDERSTAND!"

"Yes." they all grumbled.

"Well get started. I'll help if I can." Jack said leaving six ashamed men in his wake. He headed back to his suite to relax and calm down.
