Author's Note: This is just a NoCo one shot I thought of while I was bored. This is my first time writing something like this, so let me know if you liked it or didn't! Without further ado, I present NoCo's Night on The Docks!

-linebreak-

This story takes place following the end of Total Drama Island, the night the winner won. For story purposes, we're going to say that Owen won.

-linebreak-

Cody laid in bed, staring at the ceiling of the Screaming Gophers' cabin. Following Owen's victory, the winner had requested to Chris that all the competitors sleep in the cabins for one last time before they all went home. Chris gave in to the large teenager's request, and so everybody slept in their respective teams cabin before heading for Playa des Losers in the morning.

But Cody couldn't sleep. He tried, but the images racing through the mind of the competition kept him awake. His mind was filled with events from the competition. The thousand foot cliff jump, dodgeball, paintball, the awake-a-thon-

The awake-a-thon.

The event that kept Cody awake every night thinking about. One little event that set his mind off like wildfire. One little event that turned his life upside down.

The moment when Noah nibbled on his ear.

Cody always thought of himself as a "ladies man," even though he was very gay and extremely in denial about it. His dreams were clouded with thoughts of kissing men, although he desperately wanted it to be dreams about kissing girls… especially Gwen.

He glanced over at Noah's bunk- the cynic's bunk was empty, the sheets strewn about.

'That's odd. Where could he be?' Cody thought.

He climbed down from his bunk, trying not to wake any of the Gopher boys in the process. A grunt coming from Trent's bed made the tech geek freeze in place. When the musician returned to snoring, Cody opened the door carefully and snuck out of the cabin.

The stars shone brightly in the Muskoka sky as Cody walked through the camp. Light from the stars guided him to the main cabin. He strolled to the main cabin, but when he shook on the doors to get in, they wouldn't open. That told him that the boy in his dreams was not in there.

Feeling somewhat dejected, he walked to the campfire, which he thought would be where Noah was. The firepit was empty and the stumps hadn't been touched. Alas, Noah evaded the Codemeister once again.

There was only one other place where Noah could be- the Dock of Shame. Sure enough, when Cody turned to look at the dock, he saw the silhouette of someone, sitting in the darkness. The shape of their head and the skinniness of the torso told Cody that it was, in fact, Noah.

'It's him, Cody. He's sitting right there.' the geek thought to himself. 'It's just Noah. It's not like you have a crush on him.'

He shook his head in frustration. 'Oh, what the hell am I talking about!? Of course I have a crush on him.'

Cody approached slowly, carefully tiptoeing on the damaged dock. When he got closer, he could make out Noah's head facing the sky, looking at the moon. The tech geek took a deep breath and sat down next to the cynic.

"Took you long enough to show up." Noah said. "I thought you would've gone back to the cabin."

Cody didn't know what to say. All that came out of his throat was a series of sputters that sounded like, "wh-wh-wha?"

Noah rolled his eyes. "Please. Everybody and their grandmother could hear you creeping up behind me on the dock."

"Oh."

"Why'd you come and find me anyway?"

"Why are you out here?"

"You answer me first."

"Fine. I wanted to find you because…" Cody searched his mind for an acceptable excuse. "I wanted to talk to you?"

Noah raised an eyebrow in suspicion. He cocked his head at the brunette nerd and looked into his eyes intently. Cody couldn't resist the pressure that the Indian boys' eyes put on him.

"Okay, okay, I wanted to find you because I was worried about you." Cody exasperated.

"Why were you worried about me?" Noah asked.

"You weren't in your bed, and I wanted to make sure you were okay."

"Yeah, I'm okay, Cody. I just couldn't sleep, and needed to get out a bit."

The two of them stared into the water in an awkward silence. The sound of waves crashing along the dock were the only sounds to be heard. This silence between the two continued before Cody broke it.

"Noah, do you remember what happened during the awake-a-thon?" he asked.

The know-it-all's eyes went wide as he looked off into the distance, trying to find an ample excuse as to why he couldn't remember. But his mind flashed back to that lovely night he had with Cody…

-flashback!-

The two boys had tried to stay awake by talking to each other. They were sitting next to each other, talking about their families and lives outside of the show.

"Wait, so you have eight siblings!?" Cody asked, shocked. "I can't even imagine having one."

"Only child, huh?" Noah shook his head. "Lucky you. You must get plenty of attention from your parents."

"Not really. They don't really care where I am, or even know where I am most of the time. I could be on the other side of the province and they wouldn't give a damn."

"That's… kinda screwed up."

"Yeah, but I-" Cody yawned. "I-" he yawned again. "I always-" he slumped down the tree stump he was sitting on and fell on the ground, face up. His eyes were closed and he was breathing softly from his nose, asleep.

"Cody! Cody! Come on man, we could lose the challenge! Wake up!" Noah poked him a couple times, but the tech geek stayed asleep. He groaned. "Man, now we're down another player."

The bookworm tried to stay awake for a little while longer, but soon succumbed to the tiredness in his brain, slumping to the ground like Cody had done. The two scrawny geeks were laid next to each other, both of them asleep.

Unbeknownst to both of them, while they were sleeping, Noah began cuddling Cody and nibbled on his ear. His arms were wrapped around the tech geek's waist, cradling him while they both slept.

Several hours later, both boys woke up in shock. Cody felt the hands around his waist and the nibbling on his ear and was in pure bliss feeling it. Noah looked up at what he was kissing and screamed. The other boy had also begun screaming, because even though he enjoyed it, he didn't want Noah to know. Both of them ran off screaming.

-flashback over-

"Of course I remember, Cody. What about it?" Noah tried to play off the question innocently.

"When you had your hands around my waist on your lips on my ear?" Cody brought up. "I enjoyed that a lot, Noah."

"Then why didn't you bring it up after the fact?" Noah scooched a bit closer to Cody.

The scrawny geek blushed beet red. "I was too nervous. I wasn't ready to have that discussion."

"Is that why you tried to play the "ladies man" act?"

Cody nodded.

"I see. I can tell it didn't work out. And Cody, about the cuddling in our sleep, I must admit-" Noah moved even closer to Cody, so the two were touching shoulder to shoulder. "That I enjoyed it too. And my god, you're cute as hell."

Cody's face couldn't handle it anymore and turned as red as a tomato. "Y-you enjoyed it too?"

"Of course I did." Noah expressed genuine emotion for quite possibly the first time ever on the show as he smiled at Cody. "How about it, cutie?"

The brunette embraced the Indian boy in a hug and gave him a kiss on the lips. After they held it for a few seconds, they let go and stared into each other's eyes.

"Noah, do you want to go out with me?"

"Absolutely."

The two embraced each other in a hug and held each other tightly. Noah climbed onto Cody's lap and continued to hug him, and they stayed in this position until someone interrupted them.

"Aha! E-Scope knew it!" Izzy came up from behind them and startled both of them. Noah almost fell in the water but was saved when Cody grabbed the back of his vest.

"Izzy, what are you doing here?" Cody asked sternly. "Why are you spying on us?"

"Firstly, my name is E-Scope. Secondly, I always knew that you two were gay." Izzy stated. "Thirdly, I saw you two leave your cabin and figured there would be some spicy things happening."

The lovers looked at each other in disbelief and shook their heads at the crazy girl. They watched in a mix of horror and confusion as she started eating a plank of wood from the dock.

"Hey Iz- I mean, E-Scope, can you promise not to tell anyone about us?" Cody asked, sensing the nervousness from Noah.

Izzy stopped eating her piece of wood for a moment to respond to Cody. "Absolutely! E-Scope can keep the secret between you gay boys."

They breathed a sigh of relief with a little hope that they wouldn't be tormented for being in a homosexual relationship with each other.

Izzy took one final bite from her piece of wood and chucked the remainder on the ground. "Okay, gay boys! E-Scope will see you later!" she said before doing several backflips away from the two lovers.

With Izzy leaving them alone, they turned back to face the water. Noah placed his head on Cody's shoulder and looked out into the water. The two boys sat in silence for a couple minutes, enjoying each other's company.

"Wow, Noah. The moon is so pretty tonight," Cody whispered. "Just like you."

"Already starting with the corny jokes?" Noah jokes. "You're lucky you're cute."

The moon in the sky lit the dock up so they could see each other's faces. Embracing each other, the boys kissed on the lips while their eyes twinkled in the moonlight. This kiss lasted several seconds, and the two lovers slowly retracted their lips.

"I love you." They whispered to each other.

Closing note: And that's that. Just something I thought was cute and wanted to write. Let me know if you enjoyed it, or think it's utter trash, so I can improve next time. Thanks for reading! -BaguetteMan
