After Graduation

Suite Life on Deck

Chapter 2: Stanford & Xavier

After my airplane landed I said goodbye to Woody, Zack, and London and rode a taxi to the school. Stanford after Hartford and Yale was my next chose. It is very far away from Bailey but at least I'm still at a university. I'm studying to be a Marine Biologist I told everyone the other day. Bailey wants to be a teacher, Zack an athlete, London a clothes designer, and Woody I'm not entirely sure.

"Hi! Cody Martin right"

"Last time I cheeked."

"I'm Bella your PA. Here is your Stanford orientation package, your room key, and your schedule."

"Thank you Bella."

"No problem. Remember classes are an hour and 45 minutes, 8 minute passing periods, and 1 hour for breakfast and lunch. School starts at 9:00 and ends at 4:45, and curfew is at 11:00. Any questions?"

"Nope."

"Okay. Well have a good day."

"You too."

It took a couple of hours to get everything unpacked, 30 minutes each talking to my mom and dad on the phone, and then I meet my roommate Xavier Thompson. A 19 year old, brown haired, green eyed player. Who smokes cigarettes, but has so mush strength and muscle he could kill me with one punch. He got here on a sports scholarship and did not look happy to have a scrawny nerd as his roommate.

"Hey nerd. Do you know where my roommate is?"

"I'm your roommate. Hi I'm Cody Martin you must be Xavier."

"Great I'm going to be living with king of the dorks for the next two years"

"Well If you think that you are going to intimidate me you are sadly mistaken. Not living with my brother all my life and being friends with London Tipton for six years. Anything you call me I'm used to."

"You've got spunk kid. I like it."

"Thank you?"

"Who are in all of the pictures?"

"That picture is me and my twin brother Zack, that one is one of me, Zack, London and our friend Maddie from when we lived in the Tipton hotel, that one is me, Zack, and our mom and dad, that one is me, Zack, and our friend Woody from the SS Tipton, that picture is me, Zack, my ex-girlfriend Barbra, and our friends Max, Bob, and Tapeworm from the Tipton Hotel, that picture is of Woody and his girlfriend Addison, that picture is of Zack and his now ex girlfriend Maya, and those are pictures of me and my girlfriend Bailey who is in Connecticut intending Yale."

"Wow. You knew a lot of people."

"Yeah."

"So where do you come from?"

"Boston. You?"

"New York."

"Oh. Do you need any help unpacking?"

"I only have a few pictures of my family and friends. So I'll be fine."

"Oh can I see them?"

"Sure."

He told me he had a 9 year old little sister named Jessica and a 5 year old little brother named Dylan. His parents got divorced 3 years ago and his childhood dog sparky died a year ago. He has two best friends named Brad and Andrew, and he has had many girlfriends but like Zack decided to settle down and has had a 4 month long relationship with a girl named Tiffany. "Do you want a smoke?" He finally asked after thirty minutes.

"No thanks. I don't smoke."

"Your loss."

"Well. I will see you later I have to get to work."

"Okay later kid."
