When Cody and Bailey got back to Bailey and London's cabin to finish their speech, they noticed that London wasn't around. They figured that she went shopping right away. The heat went down a bit more as the two young lovers finished their speech for graduation. Once they were done, they just relaxed in the cabin. After ten minutes of just leaning back in the spinning chair, Cody grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil and started to write something. Bailey noticed what Cody was doing and wanted to see what it was, so she stood and walked behind Cody's chair. Bailey found out that her little egg head was writing a poem but she couldn't tell what it was about except for the element of natural beauty was used in the word scheme.
"What are you writing about, sweetie", Bailey asked.
"A poem", Cody answered.
"I can see that. Is it for your mom", Bailey replied.
"No it's not but thank you for reminding me that I should make something for my mom", Cody said.
Bailey leaned in from behind Cody and softly laid her chest against his backside while he was still sitting down. Bailey pondered who Cody though VERY highly of and what his relationship with his parents and his brother, Zack.
"Cody how close are you with either of your parents", Bailey asked.
"I'm closest to my mom", Cody answered still not looking at Bailey.
"What about your dad", Bailey asked.
"I seem to be somewhat close to him but Zack's closer with him", Cody explained.
"I'm guessing your favorite parent is your mom while Zack's favorite parent is your dad and vice versa", Bailey guessed.
"Correct", Cody responded.
"But you don't have to guess who's my favorite cuddle or study buddy, favorite girl, favorite project partner or favorite lover is", Cody hinted.
Bailey blushed and softly giggled at Cody's response.
"You're my favorite boy, cuddle buddy and lover, too. You're also my favorite study buddy and project partner", Bailey replied as she leaned over and planted a kiss on Cody's cheek.
Cody swiveled around in his chair with a huge grin on his face and pulled Bailey into his lap. He leaned in and started to nibble on Bailey's left ear. In response, Bailey giggled as she was known to be ticklish on her left ear. Cody continued to nibble as Bailey was showing no signs of complaint and kissed the earlobe. Bailey had to shut her lips tight from letting out laughter flow from her lips anymore. After two seconds, Bailey was laugh again and realized she failed to stop herself from laugh as Cody nibbled on her ear. She soon understood that her feller likes to taste her skin as much as possible. Unfortunately, Cody stopped nibbling on Bailey's ear and opened his mouth to speak.
"We should practice our speech", Cody said.
"I guess you're right", Bailey frowned.
Cody couldn't see Bailey's frown or detect slight disappointment in her voice and proceeded to swivel the chair back around to the desk to grab two sets of index cards. He handed Bailey one set of index cards while he held another set. Bailey forgot about her disappointment and practiced reading the speech out loud with Cody. Once they were done practicing, Cody explained to Bailey that he had to leave so that they could change into something a little bit more suitable for the colder evening. Bailey understood and was about to get up from her fiancée's lap when Cody pulled her back a bit. Bailey was confused until Cody planted a kiss on her cheek and then lifted her up and placed her on her bed.
"See you later on the Sky Deck", Cody said.
"See you later, Cody", Bailey smiled.
Cody kissed Bailey on the lips, grabbed his poem and then left her to return to his cabin. Bailey stood up from her bed when Cody was completely gone, closing the door behind him. She got a fresh set of clothing and headed to the bathroom to change.
Meanwhile with Cody, he was on his way back to his and Woody's cabin. When he arrived, he got out his key card and was about to use it when Zack suddenly opened his cabin's door and yanked Cody from behind into his cabin. Cody was extremely confused when he noticed that Zack dragged him into his cabin and that he found Woody in the cabin. Cody then had a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach what could happen to him with Zack and Woody. The younger blonde twin gulped and looked at his friend and brother in terror. He wondered what they wanted from him.
"What's going on", Cody cautiously asked.
"Why are you hiding something from us", Zack blurted.
"What do you mean", Cody asked.
"We mean that what are hiding", Woody said.
"I don't know you two lunatics are talking about", Cody replied.
"Don't call us lunatics", Zack said.
"Maybe we are", Woody suggested.
Zack gave Woody an incredulous look that said: whose side are you on? But then Zack averted his attention back to his brother.
"What happened in Paris", Zack interrogated.
"Bailey and I already told you guys what happened. It was just us finally experiencing a wonderful and romantic time together in the city of love", Cody stated.
"You know what? We still think that you're keeping something from us", Zack said.
"Yeah", Woody agreed.
Cody rolled his eyes in annoyance. He knew that there would be NO WAY ON EARTH that Cody would mention any sacred moment between him and his Bailey bunny. Only he and Bailey would know what happened. Cody intended to keep certain moments between him and Bailey.
"Look, guys. Bailey and I finally redeemed ourselves in Paris and all you guys want to know what we did there? When have you two EVER cared about what Bailey and I did? I can't believe you don't believe us", Cody responded.
Cody was red in the face. He abruptly stood up from the chair he was sitting in and stormed out of Zack's cabin. The younger blonde twin soon used his key card and entered his cabin. Zack and Woody just stared as Cody had stormed out. Woody looked back at Zack.
"Wow, I've never seen Cody so angry. Maybe we should go apologize to him", Woody suggested.
"I guess you're right. Let's do it now before he forms a grudge against us", Zack replied.
Woody nodded in agreement. Zack and Woody walked out of the cabin and went over across the hallway. Zack knocked on the door. Cody yelled on the other side of the door, telling them to go away. Woody shivered at Cody's angry voice.
"Zack, he's really angry", Woody warned.
"I know that", Zack snapped.
Zack knocked on the door again. Cody opened the door with an annoyed expression on his face.
"What do you two want", Cody asked.
"We want to apologize for interrogating you and not believing you and Bailey for what you said about Paris", Zack said.
Cody cocked his head sideways in confusion with his eyebrows furrowed.
"Yeah, we're really sorry, Cody", Woody sincerely said.
Cody straightened his head back in the normal position.
"Ok, apology accepted", Cody said.
Woody smiled at Cody.
"Iguana hug", Woody said.
Cody rolled his eyes in amusement and held out his arm to give his roommate a hug. Woody gave Cody a huge bear hug. Cody could barely breathe as he was being squeezed to death by his friend. The large boy finally released his friend and let him catch his breathe. Then Woody patted Cody on the shoulder.
"Are we ok", Woody asked.
Cody nodded his head 'Yes'. Woody smiled and then walked into his and Cody's cabin. Cody then looked expectantly at Zack. Zack just shrugged his shoulders and then gave Cody a half hug. Afterwards, Cody just gave Zack an incredulous look saying that he could do better. Zack rolled his eye but gave Cody a real hug and Cody graciously accepted his brother's hug. After a minute, the twin brothers released from the hug.
"Are we good", Zack asked.
"Yeah we are", Cody said.
Zack smiled at Cody and then patted him on the shoulder.
"Ok, see you later, Broseph", Zack said.
Cody nodded his head and watched his twin brother go back into his cabin. The younger twin then went back inside his cabin to change into a fresh set of clothing. When Cody got inside the cabin, he had seen that Woody had changed into different clothing. Woody was wearing khaki shorts and a blue volcome shirt with black sneakers. Cody grabbed some clothes and went in the bathroom to change.
Ten minutes pass by and the intelligent Martin twin comes out with dark blue jeans on and a crisp short-sleeved button up black shirt and a pair of black and red laced vans with black shoelaces. Woody looked at Cody.
"Are you ready to meet the others at the Sky Deck", Woody asked.
"Almost ready, I just have to do a few things and then we could go", Cody responded.
"Ok, dude. How long will it take you", Woody questioned.
"Just a few minutes", Cody answered.
Woody nodded his and let Cody do what he had to do. The first thing Cody did was text Bailey about wearing her heart locket and key. The second thing Cody did was finish the poem he had started when he was with Bailey and slip it into his back pocket. Finally, Cody searched for his locket and key and put them around his neck. Woody noticed the heart shaped locket with a key around Cody's neck and titled his head showing a sign of confusion.
"Hey, Cody, what's up with the locket and key", Woody asked.
Cody gave Woody a confused look and then looked from his cabin mate to his neck and suddenly realized what his friend was referring to. Cody then has an embarrassed expression on his face until he collects himself to answer the brunette haired boy.
"Oh, the heart shaped locket and the key is part of a set that I had bought on Barbados as a gift to Bailey and I as a couple. It holds a great deal of symbolism of our love for each other", Cody answered.
"All I need to know. Are you ready to leave now", Woody responded.
"Yeah, we can leave now", Cody replied.
After the quick conversation, the two high school senior boys left their cabin, locking it behind them. Once the duo was in the hallway, they met up with Zack and their trio formed. When the boys arrived at the Sky Deck, they all went to their girls, greeting them with hugs and kisses. Well, only Zack and Woody could greet Addison and Maya right away while Cody had to wait for his Bailey a few moments later. Fortunately, Cody didn't have to wait long because Bailey was only thirty seconds later, making quite a presentation to her feller. When Bailey came on the Sky Deck, Cody was in awe. She was wearing a white cloth sun dress with silver strappy sandals. She was also wearing her locket and key around her neck.
Bailey stood from a distance, brightly smiling at her little egg head. Cody brightly smiled at his little hay bail. Bailey kept smiling at Cody as she started to move her feet and ran towards him in her sun dress.
Bailey jumped into Cody's welcoming arms and he caught her, spinning her around. Cody kissed Bailey on the lips and then let her down, hugging her afterwards. She welcomed his embrace and hugged him back. The very experience couple released from their embrace and smiled even brighter and wider than before. Both of them looked at each other.
"You look absolutely charming", Bailey cooed.
"You look like an angel from the high heavens above", Cody smiled.
Bailey stifled a giggle by biting her lower lip.
"Cody that's so sweet", Bailey said.
The farm girl pecked the lips of her city boy as she slipped her arms around his neck.
"I see you got my text about the key and locket", Cody said.
"Of course I did. I see you are wearing your key and locket as well", Bailey replied.
"I was hoping we could coordinate a little bit this evening", Cody said.
Bailey giggled.
"Ready to hang out tonight with our friends, honey", Bailey asked.
"Of course, sweetie. Let's join the others", Cody replied.
With that, the couple turned on their heels and laced their fingers together, walking towards their friends. When everyone was ready to start out the evening, they all left for dinner. They planned that after dinner, they would go bowling in the ship's bowling alley. The three couples left for dinner at a restaurant near the railing that had plenty of space for tables.
