Author's Note from Mat49324: No surprise, it's time for another one-shot on my page. I had a thought through my mind on this since the spies had a jacuzzi at their beach house that they NEVER USED believe it or not, and that got me thinking why they never did. Plus, if you remember back to S1's The Getaway, Sam has a heart-shaped hot tub at her house that was only used once. Then again, how many other movies have hot tub scenes that get really steamy? So, I've decided to bring that here to Totally Spies... for fun! Oh, and in addition, this is also the first one-shot I've posted where I'm a college graduate (WHOO HOO!). For now, here's The Blue Time Ranger if he's got something he'd like to say.
Author's Note from The Blue Time Ranger: Doesn't it just suck when you remember they had a perfectly usable thing that they never used? Well, we're gonna rectify that now with another oneshot. Let's get cozy and ROLL IT!
Title: Hot Tub Talk
Summary: Sam's house had a jacuzzi, and so did the spies' beach house, but they never used it... so, what happens when the spies decide to use it with male companions? Hmm...

6:53 P.M. – The Spies' Beach House
Another day was winding down as the spies had just arrived home following a rather mediocre shopping day.
"Well, that was a near-bust of a shopping day," Clover complained as Sam immediately went away.
"It didn't help that there weren't that many movies that were worth seeing," Alex added.
"Is there anything on TV we could possibly watch so this day doesn't turn out to be a total waste?" Britney wondered.
"I could make us spaghetti if anybody wants?" Mat offered, seemingly on board with Britney's suggestion.
"Dude, I could go for some of that spaghetti," Nick replied.
"I'm still a little stunned the day's nearly over and we came up bust at the Groove," Clover told the others.
"It's the way it goes, I guess," Blaine commented.
Everyone had to agree on that. Some shopping days were good, some weren't.
"I suppose I'm in for spaghetti," Britney quipped.
"Likewise," Blaine added.
Alex and Clover were no different.
"Now, for question number two," Alex started. "Where'd Sam go?"
"I'm up for your spaghetti, too, Mat-honey," Sam replied, returning in her red and white tie-on bikini.
"You're going swimming, Sammy?" Clover wondered.
"No," Sam shook her head. "Jacuzzi."
She gently pulled Mat by his arm as if she wanted a male companion. Thankfully, Mat easily got the message and walked with Sam to the jacuzzi.
Nick didn't even need to read Alex's mind to know that she was thinking pretty much the exact same thing, and the two of them walked hand in hand towards the jacuzzi.
And, for the hat trick, Clover smiled at Blaine and he got the message as well, the two of them joining the rest of the spies in the jacuzzi.
"Ahh, that's so much better," Sam sighed.
"You know something, I just realized that we've never actually used this jacuzzi the whole time we've been here," Alex quipped.
"What a waste, really," Britney replied.
"Welp, good thing we're basically rectifying that right now, huh?" Nick laughed.
"Ah, we definitely needed this, that's for sure," Clover stated.
"So, anyone have any interesting hot tub stories to tell?" Mat asked.
"Oh, how about this one time May turned herself into a tomato?" Nick chuckled.
"Wait, she did what?" Blaine gasped.
"Oh, this I've gotta hear," Alex chuckled.
Before Nick could get that tale started, however, the seven spies heard the sound of their front door suddenly sliding open.
Knowing what that meant, the spies all tensed up, only for May to inadvertently jump into the pool instead of the jacuzzi where everyone actually was.
Naturally, May resurfaced looking incredibly confused. "Um... where did everybody..."
"We're in the hot tub, ya goofball!" Nick called out. When May's eyes met Nick's and she realized her mistake, she looked predictably embarrassed.
"...oops," May laughed as she hopped out of the pool to join the other spies in the jacuzzi. "I'm too used to doing that in the pool, honestly."
"A little too quick on the trigger, miss tomato," Clover laughed.
"What do you..." May asked, only to glance at Nick. "You didn't tell them, did you?"
"Well, I was about to, before you jumped into the wrong water," Nick laughed.
"Wait, wait, what's this about you turning into a tomato, May?" Alex wondered.
"It was when I was about ten, really," May answered. "My parents and I, Nick included, since he was in my class then, went to a fancy hotel for a class trip. That's when my mom introduced me to a hot tub for the first time, and trust me, I felt like I needed it, because it was the middle of winter, and the weather back then suuuuuuuuuuuuucked."
"What ended up happening was, well, May enjoyed the hot tub a bit too much, and she actually fell asleep in it," Nick chuckled. "She was fine when we finally woke her up, but she felt like she'd been turned into a steamed tomato from how long she was in there."
"From that point on, I always made sure to never stay in a hot tub or jacuzzi for too long," May quipped.
"Sounds like a hoot," Alex laughed.
"I hear that alcohol and jacuzzis don't mix well," Mat added.
"No way," Nick stated. "I wouldn't try it."
Everybody shook their heads in agreement. Nobody even had any alcoholic beverages on them anyway.
Something else seemed to be on Mat's mind, too, since everyone was in a hot tub.
"Well, nobody would try mixing a jacuzzi and alcohol, but some girls do try something else," Clover added as if she read Mat's mind.
"Oh, gosh," Mat chuckled.
"What's this about?" Blaine wondered.
Nick and Mat had some inquiring looks on their faces as if to say to Blaine, "Do we have to say it?"
"Clover, you are too daring," Britney chuckled.
"I'm just saying..." Clover reasoned.
"But on the other hand, it's... not really a bad idea," Mat commented while Sam cuddled next to him.
"I don't want to be the one who encourages the inevitable," Nick chuckled.
"I'm the one without a boyfriend, so leave me out," Britney remarked.
May was no different.
"Guess Britney and I are the only singles here," May remarked.
Alex knew she was in a two-piece, as did Clover; Sam realized she had a bikini on, too.
"I'm a little mixed if you say we should do... that, Clover," Sam spoke up. "Even IF I have a bikini on."
"Up to you," Mat chuckled with an inquiring look on his face. "I won't be mad if you say no."
"Clover, this isn't Girls Gone Wild, FYI," Nick pointed out. "You're seriously gonna do this?"
"I get we ARE with our boyfriends," Alex replied. "But I don't know if I want to take that step..."
"Same," Sam added.
Clover looked around before smiling. "I may be daring, true, but even I know when to restrain myself," Clover quipped. "I'd really only do something like that if Blaine was comfortable with it."
Sam and Alex smiled at each other, glad to know that Clover could show some restraint.
"You know, that whole shtick reminded me of that one time someone actually took my top off in the pool," May quipped.
"Really?! That actually happened to you, May?" Blaine gasped.
"It was a couple years ago, actually," May replied. "I went with the Jellyfish Pirates to the local pool for a class trip, kinda like what we always used to do at summer camp as kids..."
"Ah, the memories," Nick sighed.
"Basically, we were all just minding our own business, when out of nowhere, some punk sneaks up behind me, does an evil laugh, and freakin' yanks my top off!" May proclaimed. "I mean, who does that?!"
"That kinda punk, apparently," Clover chuckled.
"Thankfully, nobody saw anything they weren't supposed to, especially since April and Yuki dunked that poor fool before he could try his nonsense on anybody else," May giggled. "That's what he gets for trying to perv on the Jellyfish Pirates!"
"I almost thought that Souji or Akira would have gotten to him first," Alex quipped.
"Oh, they wanted to, but April just beat them to it," May laughed. "And even if they didn't, I would've given that guy hell for trying that."
"I'd probably do the same," Nick quipped. "I'm sure you all remember the dunk tank day when someone tried to do that to Alex."
"I've never had more fun watching a perv get dunked," Clover laughed.
"I'll say," Mat laughed.
"For the record, beautiful," Blaine told Clover. "I... don't think I'd have minded, but that IS quite a step when you think about it..."
Nick and Mat had inquiring looks on their faces, but did nod in agreement with what Blaine said about that being a big step."
The spy friends had a good time forgetting about their near-bust of a shopping day at the Groove.
"Would you have minded, Mat?" Sam wondered.
"Well..." Mat chuckled. "I agree it's a helluva step to take, but... no, not really."
Sam immediately kissed him on the cheek and the lips. She had no intention of removing her top at all anyway.
"Honestly, I don't know if I'd be ready for... that," Mat added.
"To be fair, I probably wouldn't mind, either, as long as we're both okay with it," Nick quipped.
"I figured as much," Alex giggled as she leaned over to kiss Nick.
"Best we don't test that theory just yet," Clover quipped, backing off on the topless matter.
"Totally," Alex added. "Best to just keep things slow, despite we have been with our boyfriends as long as we have."
"Besides," Sam quipped. "I feel showing everything is way too far away in this situation."
"Maybe one day when we're farther along," Clover replied.
"So, any thoughts we might take the fun to the pool later?" Mat wondered.
"Probably," Britney answered.
"But I admit... seeing May dive into the wrong water was a sight to see," Alex giggled.
"I almost feel tempted to do that every time May does that now," Mat snickered.
"Oh, please don't!" May exclaimed.
"But why, May?" Nick laughed. "It was so good, after all..."
"And that's the thing!" May shouted. "I know for a fact that I'm never gonna hear the end of it!"
"Speaking of 'good'..." Britney chuckled.
Sam and Mat were busy kissing in the jacuzzi, as were Alex and Nick.
May couldn't help but smile at the lovey-dovey atmosphere in the air (also glad to change the subject from that embarrassing moment) before tapping Nick on the shoulder.
Nick didn't even get a chance to respond before May placed both of her hands on his shoulders and shoved downwards, sending Nick under the water instantly.
"That's what you get for teasing me about my screw-up, Nick," May taunted. "Offenders get dunked, that's a Jellyfish Pirate rule!"
Suddenly, May yelped in surprise as she found herself yanked under the water as well, courtesy of Nick grabbing her legs.
"Saw that coming, honestly," Alex laughed.
Nick and May both quickly resurfaced, competitive glints in their eyes.
"You'd better be ready to reap what you sow, May," Nick proclaimed.
"Oh, it is on like a copyrighted catchphrase!" May shouted.
Eventually, the rest of the spies decided to join in the water battle as well, quite happy to have this time together.

Final Author's Note from Mat49324: Well, that's all she wrote for my 26th one-shot, and my first one-shot completed as a college grad. Now, how many of you noticed the spies never used the jacuzzi once at their beach house – not even after a mission to detox or celebrate? Even though it may not seem like a big deal, it's also slightly deceiving at the same time. Also, hopefully you were taken by surprise that Clover brought up the "going topless" aspect, and if you liked that the spies eventually backed off, or would not have minded if they did, that's your take. Anyway, stay tuned for the next one-shot, whatever that may be, and I await your reviews. For now, here's The Blue Time Ranger if there's anything he'd like to say.
Final Author's Note from The Blue Time Ranger: And that's a wrap! It felt refreshing to use the hot tub and not just the plain ol' pool for once. Poor May, though, is probably never gonna live that down, hehehehe...
And that's about all I really have to say, so, until next time, have a fantastic day, don't listen to the screeching morons, and we'll see you next mission!
