Back on the S.S Tipton, Zack was on his shift at the smoothie bar. The sun in the sky indicated that it was almost high noon. Zack had fifteen minutes left until he could get off. May walked over and greeted her boyfriend with a peck on the lips.
"Hey, Zack", Maya said.
"Hey, beautiful", Zack said.
Maya smiled.
"So, Zack um what do you want to do while we wait for our impending double date with Addison and Woody", Maya asked.
"I don't know. What do you want to do", Zack responded.
"I'll have to think about that", Maya said.
While Zack waited for Maya's reply, he heard a customer make a smoothie order. He filled their order and started to make the smoothie. Once he was done making the smoothie, he gave it to the patron and they paid for it. Zack turned back to Maya.
"So, do you have an answer", Zack asked.
"Yes, I do", Maya said.
"Great! What is it", Zack asked.
"I would like go swimming on the Fiesta Deck", Maya said.
"Sounds fun, babe. What time", Zack questioned.
Maya considered her and Zack's time schedule and finally decided on an acceptable time to meet.
"Three o'clock", Maya answered.
"Sounds perfect, Maya. What are you doing before three", Zack asked.
"I'm just working on a research paper. What about you", Maya replied.
Zack picked up a clean washcloth and a dirty cup and started to clean the cup like a bartender would do.
"I'm going to hang out with Woody", Zack responded.
"Ok, well, have fun. See you at three on the Fiesta Deck", Maya said.
"Ok, Maya, see you later", Zack said.
Zack kissed Maya on the lips before she left. Zack then finished cleaning the cup. He looked around for any incoming passengers who might come at the last second before the end of his shift. Luckily for Zack, no one was around. He proceeded to finish cleaning his work station and then left to change back into normal clothes. One of the smoothie guys named Todd came in just in time for him to take Zack's place.
Once he arrived at his cabin, Zack changed into a pair of black jeans, black vans and a deep purple t-shirt. He then walked across the way to Cody and Woody's cabin and walked right in since the door was open. Woody was sitting on his bed, reading a comic book.
"Yo, Woodster",Zack announced.
Woody looked up and saw Zack.
"Hey, Zack", Woody responded.
"Are you game for some fun, buddy", Zack asked.
"I sure am", Woody exclaimed.
Woody stood up from his bed and plopped the comic book down on his bed.
"Let me just get my key", Woody explained.
"Ok, no worries, Woodchuck", Zack said.
In no time at all, Woody got his key and the two guys left the cabin with Woody locking it before leaving. For the next two hours Zack and Woody hung out, joking around, playing pranks on other passengers, talking about witch disgusting habit was cooler: Zack belching the alphabet frontwards and backwards or Woody farting Stairway to Heaven, twice in a row…., and playing arcade games. After two hours of hanging out both Zack and Woody explained to each that they had to meet Addison and Maya before their double date during the evening. When Woody and Zack got back to their cabins, Woody went inside to his and Cody's cabin to look through a booklet to help him to not be clumsy when trying to be a gentleman that was written by Cody Martin.
Zack went inside his cabin to change into his swimming gear, which consisted of swim trunks, a black shirt and sandals. Zack locked his cabin and went to the Fiesta Deck to meet Maya there. When he got there, he found Maya sunbathing on a lounge chair, in her red bikini with a pink sarong wrapped around her waist. Zack walked up to his girlfriend and smiled at her, waiting for her to notice him. She finally noticed him.
"Hi, Zack", Maya said.
Zack sat down next to Maya.
"Hi, Maya", Zack said.
"Ready to get wet", Maya asked.
"Well not exactly, I just got here", Zack protested.
The older Martin twin stood up but was shortly followed by his girlfriend who had a mischievous grin on her face. Zack held up his hands in defense as he backed away from Maya. She kept advancing towards Zack.
"Maya, whatever you're planning please leave me out of it", Zack begged.
"How do you know I'm going to do", Maya innocently asked.
"Because I know that look, Maya. I've it before. I know that you're plotting something", Zack stated.
"You're right, Zack. I am plotting something", Maya grinned.
Before Zack could respond Maya suddenly pushes him into the pool. Zack's body falls in the deep water and back at the surface, Maya is laughing. After a while, Maya takes off her sarong, puts it on the lounge chair and dives into pool, joining Zack at the bottom.
Maya grins at her boyfriend underwater and he grins back then both of them swim up to the surface.
"You little stinker, you pushed me in the pool", Zack mockingly complained.
"Sorry", Maya teased.
"Ah, it's ok, Maya. But you know now I get to do something to you, too", Zack declared.
He swam towards Maya but she dodged him. She was laughing at him until he finally caught her. Zack then playfully dunked his girlfriend and quickly pulled her back up from under the water. Maya gasped for air. Then she gave him a glare but he just smiled like an idiot.
"You…", Maya huffed.
"We are even now", Zack said.
Maya sighed. She thought of an idea. She splashed Zack.
"Hey", Zack exclaimed.
Maya stuck her tongue at him.
"Oh that's it! This is war", Zack exclaimed.
Zack Martin took Maya Bennett's splash challenge and retaliated. The two teens immersed themselves in an all-out splash war. The splash war between them went on for an hour. Zack and Maya were laughing so hard when they both stopped since they were receiving weird looks from other passengers. When they were done laughing, they got out of pool and dried off.
"Maya, do you remember when our double date is with Woody and Addison", Zack asked.
"We're supposed to meet them in the Aqua Lounge at six", Maya answered.
"What time is it now", Zack asked.
"I'll check", Maya replied.
She went over to the lounge chair that she was lounging on and grabbed her bag that was lying right next to her on the ground and pulled out her cell phone. She flipped it open and checked the time.
"Right now it's four thirty", Maya answered.
"Thanks, Maya. Well I guess we should part. I'll see you later in an hour and a half at six", Zack responded.
Zack kissed Maya on the cheek.
"Bye, Maya", Zack said.
"See you at six", Maya replied.
Zack skedaddled back to his cabin. Maya went back to her cabin as well. When they got to their cabins, they took shower got changed and hung around in their separate cabins before their double date with their friends. Maya was taking a nap while Zack was rocking out to his favorite songs.
