1Suite Life On Deck
Bailey Belle
I DO NOT OWN SUITE LIFE OR ANY CHARACTERS
Bailey and Cody were on the picnic blanket after they finished eating. Cody still didn't have the courage to kiss her yet. When the time comes, it comes. He didn't want to make her feel like she had to like him back. It had to be something they both wished for. Cody and Bailey shared laughs together and told stories and were having a good time in each other's company. They felt secure being around one another. When they were together the rest of the world didn't matter.
Cody was sitting against the tree and had a sketch pad out drawing Bailey. He wasn't the best artist, but he gave it a shot. He would not let Bailey see the picture he was drawing of her. By drawing her it was an excuse to admire her beauty without being pegged as being creepy. He couldn't help it, but every time he looked up from the sketch pad he looked straight away to her eyes.
"Don't you dare make me look inane." She said with a tint of seriousness. Cody just laughed. She couldn't look stupid if she even attempted to. Cody smiled up at her. He was going to tease her a bit.
" Aren't artist supposed to draw the things they see and what they feel?" Cody said and she dropped her mouth open. She struck his shoulder with her hand, but it didn't hurt. He then laughed again.
"You are so mean!" She said smiling, but yelling at him at the same time.
"You don't even know what I see. Don't jump to conclusions, Bailey...You want to know what I see? I see...absolute beauty." Cody said looking up at her, but when she looked back he instantly started drawing again. He was afraid her reaction was going to be unpleasant. He was wrong though. Bailey felt her heart beat accelerating. She was amazed by him. He was still the same charming Cody that he was month's ago. Usually the people she got to know better turned out to be cold hearted and insensitive, but not Cody. She didn't really comprehend it, but maybe she didn't need to. She just enjoyed being in the same area as him, being around him. That's all she needed to know.
"Umm...Thank you..." Cody smiled, but refused to look up to her to see her face. He was still bothered by the fact that right now she would be completely appalled with what he said.
" Why are you thanking me? I did nothing." Cody finally looked up to her and she was smiling. That made him certain that maybe he can do this. Maybe he can tell her how he felt. Maybe she did like him in identical ways. The pencil started shaking rapidly in his hand because of all the things running through his mind. All the options...even the bad ones. What if the result to all these emotions demolish their relationship. It was a lot to take into consideration. Their relationship could endure anything, right? It was a well constructed friendship and they were devoted to that. One fumble couldn't break them so easily.
" You are always kind hearted to me..." Cody smiled at her. He wasn't just trying to be nice and considerate he actually meant everything he said. She was a picture.
" I always say things that are accurate, I am not trying to make you feel good, but if I am, I'm glad for that, but I would never say anything that would be inaccurate."
"Hmm...Still, thank you..." Cody went back to drawing and Bailey was falling even more for him, the fact that he thought all those things about her just made her feel wonderful. Like she was perfect even though she knew she was not. Every human has flaws.
Cody looked back up at her and he saw an eyelash resting on her cheek right under her eye. He dropped the pencil next to him and took his hand up to her face. She didn't reject him. He put his hand on her face and wiped the eye lash off with his thumb. They were an inch apart at the most.
"You had an eyelash...I think they say you can make a wish on these and it comes true." Cody said not breaking his eye contact with Bailey. They could feel each other's breaths. Their lips started craving for one another. Cody leaned in to make contact, but stopped himself noticing Bailey's hostility towards it. He became very unsure about whether he should kiss her or not. Right when Bailey noticed it she leaned in closing the gap between the two of them. Cody dropped the sketch pad in his hands and held Bailey's face gently. Their minds went completely blank. Bailey knocked off his hat as she grabbed tufts of his hair, but he didn't mind. They were so engrossed in the kiss. They both could hear each other's heart beats because they were so developed into the kiss. Cody then pulled away. He couldn't believe that just happened. They both had permanent smiles on their faces.
" Did...Did that just happen?" Cody said losing control over his emotions. He was so hoping she would say yes and that, that experience was not a dream or a figment of his imagination. Instead she grabbed his collar and pulled him in for another kiss. It was shorter, but it still felt like they went to heaven. Cody finally did it...He couldn't believe his six month plan worked.
"Does that answer your question?" She smiled at him. Cody smiled back and it was like all the words they had to say were just said. All those feelings were just said by their eyes and their smiles. Cody knew she was the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.
"Uh-huh...By the way...I think I lost that eyelash you were going to wish on..."
"Who said I needed it?"
"I love you, Bailey...I hope you don't think it's too soon or too weird, it's just-"
"And I love you, Cody." That made their hearts even beat faster. The sun was out and the birds were chirping and they just admitted their feelings for each other...today was a impeccable day. Nothing could extinguish the passion they had for each other.
"Could you excuse me for a moment?" She then had a confused expression. They just proclaimed the love they felt for each other and now he didn't want to be with her? Did he just say it because he felt like he had to? Cody got off the blanket stunned from everything that just occurred. He walked down the hill a bit and made sure no one was around.
"YES! MY SIX MONTH WORKED!" He would never forget this day...Bailey heard him scream down the hill and she just laughed a bit. She couldn't get that grin off of her face. Six month plan? Didn't they meet six months ago? She then put the pieces together. He had made a six month plan to have her fall for him. Honestly, he didn't even need to. She loved him for the longest time. Cody came back up the hill and was trying to contain his excitement. She could tell by the way he walked and that look in his eyes. He then sat down next to her.
"Cody, are you okay?" Bailey said concerned. He still hasn't said a word since his outburst. Cody looked at her and smiled.
"Perfect." He said and his voice kind of cracked. She was about to laugh at him, but stopped herself. She then leaned up against his shoulder and he wrapped an arm around her.
"So...tell me, what is this six month plan?" He smiled at her and kissed her on the cheek. He held tightly onto her. He didn't want to let go and neither did she. They could stay in that position forever.
" You want to see what I drew?" Cody said picking up the sketch pad and pencil. He then handed it to her.
"Wow...I can't believe you drew this..." She said noticing every single detail and how he perfectly showed how the light hit against her skin. It was a masterpiece.
"Why don't you keep it?"
"Really? You would let me?" She was pleasantly surprised. He was very good at drawing. It was a breathtaking piece. She fell in love with it instantly.
"Of course. I already know how beautiful you are time you realize the same. Though, my drawing doesn't really compare to how sublime you really are." She then let the flirtatious giggle out again and he just laughed with her.
" I hope you know now I have to draw how handsome you are." She opened a new page and did the exact thing Cody did. Every chance she got to look up again her eyes went straight away to his. They were dazed by each other. They kept laughing and having a good time. Talking about whatever that came to their minds. Eventually night came and they didn't go back to the Tipton's. Instead they stayed out and looked up at the stars with a telescope. Cody wasn't looking at the stars though...Eventually they did go back in case any animals were around and they had to tend to the horse. They both almost fell asleep there because they were so comfortable. This day in June would never be forgotten.
