Zack's point of view

I must say, even if we were in a hotel in Jamaica, away from our family and home this was a great Christmas. The day had been filled with fun with everyone. Woody finally calmed down after he opend all of his gifts.

Woody got cd's from Lily, Travis and me, Gift cards to different restaurants on the ship from London, Cody and Bailey gave him movies, candy and some of mom's muffins he apparently liked so much.

London got shoes, purses and clothes from all of us (she was the easiest to shop for).

Bailey got clothes from Lily and London, jewlery from Woody, Travis and I (with Lily and Londons help) and Cody got her a locket with a picture of them in it and inside it said "To my favorite farm girl".

Cody got a watch from Bailey and on the back it had there initials on it, clothes and Harvard weekly from Travis, Woody and I, Lily and London got him books.

Travis got an autographed soccer ball signed by his favorite player from Lily (apparently he ran into some legal problem and Lily's dad helped him out) Sports gear from Cody, Woody and I, clothes from Bailey and London.

I got clothes from London and Bailey, Skatboarding stuff from Travis, Cody and Woody, I got a signed Tony Hawk skateboard from Lils (again her dad knows him)

Lily got clothes from London, Woody got her a books called "So your boyfriends pranker?" which I thought was funny, Travis got her a charm braslet with a bunch of charms that decribed her perfectly, Bailey and Cody put together a scrapbook for her. They put pictures of everything, especially her and I. They even had a picture of our first kiss..which is weird becuase I dont remember anyone having a camera.

I still havent givin Lily my gift for her yet. I wanted to give it to her later when it was just the two of us. I was on my way to her room to take her somewhere to give her the gift.

I knocked on her door and within a few seconds it opened.

"Hey." She smiled, I took her hand and we started walking down the hall. "Sooo where are we going?"

"Well at first I planed to go out on the roof but you know hurricane so I thought we could just go to our lounge." I told her.

"Sounds good to me." She smiled.

We got into the lounge and we sat down on the couch infront of the fire place. I turned off the rest off the lights so the only light was comming from the fire and the Christmas tree.

"Oooo very romantic." She laughed.

"Ready for your gift?" I asked.

"Of course."

I reached into my pocket and took out a small box and handed it to her. She lightly tore off the wrapping paper and opened the lid of the box.

"There beautiful." She smiled taking the earrings out of the box. They were little silver hoops with her birthstone on them.

"Thank you so much." She said hugging me.

"No, not yet." I laughed.

"What?" She asked a little shocked.

"One more thing." I said taking out a seconde small box.

"Zack." She said giving me the "You didnt have to do this" look.

"I know, I know , just open it." I laughed.

"Oh Zack." She smiled taking the ring out of the box. It was pretty simple, just a silver ring but in the middle of the band the metal almost looked brained and twisted in a cool pattern. She stared at it for a seconde before her face became twisted in a confused expression. "Is there something wirtten on the inside of this?"

"Yeah, read it."

"Truly, Madly, Deeply." She read, then looked up at me a little shocked which I was expecting. "Really?"

"Its true." I said taking her hand and looking her straight in the eyes. "I love you Lils."

A wide smile spread across her face, then she leaned forward and gave me the most passionate kiss i've ever had.

"I love you too Zack." She said once she pulled away.(An: I know some people might think its a little early to be using the L word but its been 4 months and I have resently been watching lots of disney shows and most of the couple dont date long before confessing there love. So why not? Haha plus I thought it was a good time)

I just smiled at her then looked down at the ring still in its box.

"Here." I said picking up the ring. "See if it fits."

She carfully took it into her hand then tried the ring on each of her fingers. Then she went back and placed it on her middle finger on her right hand.

"Perfect." She smiled.

___The next day___

The next morning we were all in the hotel's restuarent eatting breakfast when Mr Moseby came running in.

"Everyone! I just had a call from the airport! And they said all our flights are going out in a few hours." He smiled

Everyone got very excited very quickly, talking about finally going home.

"So first things first everyone go and call your parents and start packing. If you have any problems let me know." And with that he walked out of the room.

"Come on Cody." I said getting up from the table. "Lets go call mom, we'll see you guys soon."

We walked up to Cody's room and called mom.

"Oh boys thats fanfastic!" Mom said once we told her. "I'll be at the airport to pick you up, see you soon."

"Bye mom." We said together then hung up the phone.

"I'm gonna go get my stuff." I said walking to the door. "See you in the lobby."

"Yeah later." Cody said as I left.

When I started to walk to my room I noticed Lily talking to Mr Moseby at the end of the hall. Mr Moseby had a disapointed look on his face so I decied to go over to see what was wrong.

"Are you sure there isnt any other way?" Moseby asked her as I walked up.

"No not that the moment but dont worrie I'll be fine." Lily smiled. "Oh hey Zack."

"Hey Lils, Mr Moseby." I said, Moseby nodded then walked away. "So whats wrong?"

"Its nothing important." Lily said then turned and started to walk to her room.

"Wait a minute." I said grabing her arm pulling her back. "I dont believe you, tell me whats wrong?"

"I'm staying here for a few days." She said. She looked at me for a seconde and I must have looked confused because she continued. "Like here in the hotel."

"What? Why?"

"Because my Mom didnt think I would get back for her time with me so she ran off to Vegas or somewhere." She said rolling her eyes. "My dad and Nathan went away for work since I was supossed to be my mom for a couple of days."

"So your gonna be here all alone?"

"Zack." She smiled. "Im used to it. I've done this many times before." I knew she had been alone alot before but I just didnt like that thought.

"Lily!" I said in excitement over my idea.

"Zack!" She said in a mocking my excitement.

"You can come with me, back to Boston for a few days until your dad and Nathan get home."

"Zack, thats sweet but its the holidays you should spend time with your family."

"Yeah while your here alone not being with your family."

"Thats because I cant be, its different."

"Come on Lils, I dont like the thought of leaving you here."

"Im glad your thinking of me Zack but I cant impose on your mom and Cody like that."

"One seconde." I said running back to Cody's room.

"Cody!"

"What?" He said opening the door.

"Lily cant go home because her mom left and her dad isnt home for a few days so I told her to come back to Boston with us but she thinks she's imposing so come out and tell her she's not imposing." I said quickly without even taking a breath. Cody looked at me, he didnt answer he just started walking over to Lily.

"Come on Lily you have to come with us." He said.

"Cody you really dont have to do that." She told him.

"Your not imposing Lily, your like a sister to me." He told her.

"Great, I'll call mom." I said. "Cody get back to packing, see you in the lobby." Then I grabbed Lilys hand and ran into my room.

I picked up the phone and called mom again and told her what was going on.

"Oh Lily honey of course! You have to come stay with us." She said.

"Are you sure Carey? I hate to impose on you."

"No, no dont give it a seconde thought your comming here."

"Thank you very much Carey."

"No problem, I'll see you both soon." Then we hung up.

"Your too good to me." Lily said.

I just laughed and gave her a quick kiss. "Alright go get your stuff, i'll meet you in the lobby."

____At the airport___

Cody's point of view

Bailey and I were sitting at her gate waitting until they called her flight. Most of the other students had already left so now its just Zack, Lily, Bailey, Moseby and I.

"Where did everyone go?" Bailey asked. By everyone she ment Zack, Lily and Moseby. We were far from alone in this airport, it was pretty packed.

"Mr Moseby went to get something to eat, Zack and Lily are probably running around on the luggage carts or something." I laughed. "That or there off making-out somewhere."

"Oh stop." She laughed. "There cute."

"Not as cute as you are." I smiled wrapping my arms around her.

"Why thank you." She said with a smile and laugh.

"Flight 283 to Kansas is now boarding at gate 27." The loudspeaker went off.

"Thats me." Bailey said standing up. "Bye Cody."

"Bye Bailey." I said standing up and hugging her, she pulled back and looked me in the eyes.

"You'll call me right?"

"Of course I will." I said then pulled her closer and gave her a kiss.

"I'll see you soon." She said then looked behind her. "Are Zack and Lily around? I want to say goodbye."

"Umm. " I said as I looked around for them.

"There they are." She said point over to the right where we saw Zack and Lily running for there lives down the hall.

"Zack! Lily!" We both yelled. They heard and they ran towards us.

"Hey guys, whats up?" Zack said out of breath.

"I would love to know what happend to you guys but I have to go." Bailey said hugging Lily and Zack then exchanging goodbyes.

"Alright, later guys." Bailey said as she walked over to her gate and onto the plane.

We walked down to our gate, we still had another half an hour to wait.

"So why were you guys running?" I asked not sure if I wanted an answer.

"Security guard." Zack laughed.

"What did you guys do? Riding on luggage carts or get caught making-out somwhere you werent supossed to?" I laughed.

They just looked at eachother for a seconde with a suspicious look on there faces.

"No comment." Lily said skipping over and sitting in a chair infront of our gate.

"That means the seconde one doesnt it?" I asked Zack.

"Actually both." He said laughing with me. "But we were only getting chased for the seconde one."

_____6 hours later, in Boston____

Zack's point of view

"Do you see mom anywhere?" Cody asked as the three of us walked around the airport.

"No not yet."

"There she is." Lily said pointing over to her right.

"Hey Mom!" I yelled as we all started to walk over.

She turned around and her face just light up like a Christmas tree.

"Zack! Cody! Lily!" She yelled hugging us. "Oh im so excited your all here."

"Yeah im glad to finally be home." I said

"Me too." Cody agreed.

"And I'm just happy to be anywhere." Lily laughed. We all started laughing with her and I put my arm around her as we left the airport to go back to the hotel.

We got in the car and drove back to the Tipton. Mom was just a twitter of questions for all of us but it was nice.

"Here we are." I said as the car pulled up to the hotel.

We walked up the door and saw Norman was still there.

"Hey Norman." Cody said as he opened the door for us.

"Hello boys, Carey nice to see you all again. And who's this beautiful girl?" He greeted us.

"Hi Norman, I'm Lily Parker." She said shaking his hand. "I'm Zack's girlfriend."

"Very nice to meet you Lily, enjoy your stay here." He said as we walked in.

"Nice to meet you too." She called as we proceded into the hotel. "I like Norman."

"Yeah Normans good people." I told her. "Although I think thats the most i've ever heard him talk."

____Later that day____

Cody and I were downstairs in the lobby talking to Maddie and the rest of the staff. Lily was upstairs in her room putting her stuff away and she would be down soon.

"Well I better get upstairs I have to call Bailey and get homework done." Cody said.

"We had homework?" I asked thinking I forgot about it.

"You didnt but i'm doing some extra credit." He said getting into the elevator.

"Same old Cody." Maddie laughed.

"Yeah he hasnt changed much." I laughed with her.

"But apparently you did." Maddie stated.

"Maddie, you saw me 4 months ago."

"Yeah but you seem to be maturing every minute."

"I supose, but I still play pranks and act like a child somtimes."

"Of course you do." She laughed. "Somethings dont change."

I heard the elevator ding and I turned around to see Lily stepping out of it. She walked over to where I was standing by the candy counter.

"Hey babe." I said taking her hand.

"Hey." She smiled.

"Let me guess, you must be Lily." Maddie said.

"Yeah." She said. "You must be Maddie."

"That I am, I've heard so much about you." Maddie laughed.

"I hope thats a good thing." Lily said.

"Of course." She said then looked down at Lily's hand. "Oh I love your ring! Where did you get it? Can I see it?"

"Thanks." Lily said taking off her ring and handing it to Maddie. "Zack gave it to me for Christmas."

"Aww Zack." Maddie gushed when she read the inside of the ring. "I never knew you could be so romantic."

"I have my moments." I said while Lily mouthed the words at the same time and Maddie laughed.

"I've only seen you two together for a few minutes and I can already tell your perfect." Maddie said giving Lily her ring back.

"Thanks Maddie." Lily laughed. I looked over and saw Esteban walking around the lobby.

"I'll be right back." I said to both of them.

"Hey Esteban!" I said said running over to him.

"Zack, your back from school." He said in this thick accent.

"Yeah we were stranded in Jamaica for while but we got here." I explained.

"Very good, so where is the other little blonde peoples?" He said then shook his head. "I guess I cant say that anymore."

"Not the little part at least." I laughed. "Cody's upstairs talking to Bailey."

"Oh yes the girl he would never stop talking about."

"Yeah but they finally started dating this year."

"Really? Thats great." He looked over. "How about you? Finally settle for someone? or still playing the field."

"It finally happend." I laughed. "A girl got through to me."

"No!" He said in disbelif.

"You wanna meet her?" I said, he looked very confused. "One seconde."

I ran back to Lily and Maddie. "Excuse me ladies, I need to borrow this one for a moment."

"Go ahead." Maddie laughed. "Bye Lily, i'll see you later."

"Bye." She laughed as I lead her over to Esteban.

"Esteban this is my girlfriend Lily Parker."

"Hi Esteban." Lily smiled. "Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too." He said finally losing that confused expression. "So your the one who's tamed the wild Zack"

"Tamed? Im not so sure." She laughed then looked at me. "Softend, maybe."

"Well it was nice to see you both but I have to get back to work." He said then ran off to help someone with luggage.

____The next night___

Today had been really fun. I showed Lily around Boston and people/places in the morning and that afternoon I hung out with Cody while Lily was with Maddie. Cody and I went swimming, played video games and ran around the hotel like old times. When Maddie came back with Lily she said she was taking up all to a teen club they saw today on there trip.

"It was on Stewart Street, right Lily?" Maddie asked as we drove around trying to find the club.

"Yeah." Lily said looking out the window. "Right on your left Maddie."

Once we got into the club I saw Lily and Maddie werent lying about how cool it was. When you first walked in there was a restaurent and a juice bar. Then if you went in a little further there was a huge dance floor and a small stage.

"Did'nt we tell you guys?" Maddie laughed.

"Yeah, this place is great." Cody said.

"You guys wanna get something to eat first?" I asked. We all agreed and got a table on the side close to the dance floor and stage.

"Ooo hey looks like its karaoke night." Lily said watching as we watched people picking songs to sing.

We got our food, which was actually really good. As we were eatting we listened to people being picked to sing, some where good..others not so much but it was fun. We were almost done eatting when the host of the club started walking around.

"Alright who is next up on stage?" He said walking around the tables, then stoped infront of us. "How about you?"

"Yes Lily you should go up!" Maddie encouraged her.

"No I dont think so." Lily said quickly.

"Oh come on Lily you sounded great when we were singing in the car today." Maddie said. I waited for her to make her desicion, I was hoping she would go up, just because I've never heard her sing. She just said that singing used to be her talent in beauty pageants.

"Alright." Lily said bitting her lip and following the host to the stage as we cheered her.

"Have you guys every heard her sing?" Maddie asked Cody and I.

"No." We both said.

Lily walked up onto the stage and the band ask her what song she wanted to sing.

"Umm." She thought for a moment. "You know '"Wild at Heart" by Gloriana?"

"Yeah." One of the band members answered. "Our specialty is country."

"Great." She laughed. "Can one of you sing the guy part with me."

"Yeah no problem." The guys with the guitar said as they both took there place to the microphone.

Down a back road
Long, hot summer
A couple kids runnin' loose and wild
He kissed her
She said mister,
Take an inch and I'll give you a mile

The guy with the guitar started off. I wasnt surprised Lily picked that song. Its one of her favorites but I was excited to hear her sing it.

I ain't here to do anything half-way
Don't give a damn what anyone might say
I just wanna free fall for a while

That rebel moon is shinin'
Those stars burn like diamonds
Hell bent on chasin' down that crazy side
I'll follow you where you're leading
To the first sweet taste of freedom
You got me runnin' baby,
Wild at heart

Once Lily opened her mouth and sang that first note it floored me. Her voice was beautiful. She sang in perfect harmony with the guy.

About midnight, he tells her
I ain't got no come-on lines

He sang playing the guitar to the fast paced song.

Well I'll love you, or I'll try to
We got nothing to lose but time

Lily sang then turned to wink at me. I had to smile at that and the fact that she looked to be having so much fun up on stage. By this time almost everyone in the restaurent was getting into the song by dancing and clapping.

Stick your hand into my back pocket
Light me up like a bottle rocket
I just wanna free fall for a while

That rebel moon is shinin'
Those stars burn like diamonds
Hell bent on chasin' down that crazy side
I'll follow you where you're leadin'
To the first sweet taste of freedom
You got me runnin' baby,
Wild at heart

O-oh, alright
Tonight is tellin' us we're way too young

O-oh, that's alright
I've got forever on the tip of my tongue

"She's really good." Cody said as we watched Lily and the band move and dance around on stage.

"I told you." Maddie laughed.

That rebel moon is shinin'
Those stars burn like diamonds
Hell bent on chasin' down that crazy side
I'll follow you where you're leading
To the first sweet taste of freedom
You got me runnin' baby,
You got me runnin' baby,
Wild at heart

O-oh, alright.

The song came to a close and everyone broke into applause. Lily laughed and talked with the band for a minute then the guy who sang with her gave her a hug. Then she came back to us.

"Lily you were fantastic!" Cody said.

"Fabulous!" Maddie smiled hugging her.

"Amazing!" I said as she sat down.

We spent the rest of the night dancing and laughing. After an hour or two we decided to go home, Maddie dropped us back at the hotel. We stayed up talking and playing games until it was pretty late. Mom was the first to go to bed, then Cody, not long after Cody went to bed I could tell Lily was getting tired. We were watching t.v in the living room and Lily had her head on my chest. I watched her closely and saw her eyes starting to close a little bit.

"Alright Lils." I said playing with her hair. "Time for bed."

"Good idea." She said getting up from the couch. I went up behind her and picked her up in a bridal style and carried her into my mom's room.

Awhile ago my mom's contract was renewed and we moved into a bigger suit with two bed rooms. Mom asked the hotel to bring in a seconde bed into her room so Lily wouldnt have to sleep on the couch.

I brought her into the room and set her down on her bed. She pulled the blankets back and crawled in.

"You were amazing tonight Lils." I whispered kneeling next to her bed. "You have a beautiful voice."

"Thank you." She smiled. "Goodnight Zack."

"Night." I said giving her a quick kiss and leaving her room to go to my room.

______One day later at the airport______

We had a great past few days, I loved being home with Cody and Mom. Being back at the Tipton felt right and it was great having Lily in Boston. She met everyone in the hotel, even Arwin and she loved them all.

Now I was at the airport with Lily, she was leaving to go back to Santa Barbara. Her Dad and Nathan got back last night and even though she was sad to leave Boston I knew she as excited to get back with her family. They just called Lily's flight and we were just saying our goodbyes.

"Bye Zack." She said wrapping her arms around my neck as I did with her waist.

"Bye Lils, Have fun with your dad and Nathan. Tell them I said hello."

"Oh I will for sure." She laughed. "Thanks for taking me in and showing me around the Tipton&Boston, it was amazing."

"I was happy to, well babe you better get going."

"Yeah." She said going up on her tiptoes and kissed me. We pulled apart and I let her go off to her gate and onto the plane.

There ya have it! Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. Please review!
