Its All Greek to Me

BAILEY, CODY Zack, and Freya sat at the juice bar the night before they docked in Greece.

"I can't believe we only have two days in Athens." Freya said, as she held the hand of her newly official boyfriend

"How are we going to fit in all the great museums?" Bailey added.

"Easy! We need to get the bus driver to go 2,000 miles per hour." Cody joked. Zack snatched the pamphlet out of his hand.

"Or, we can cut out the museums entirely and go straight to the beach!" Zack said. Cody's laptop beeped before pulling up a closeup of a nose. "Uh, Cody why do you have a giant nose screensaver?"

"Thats Arwin calling!" Cody exclaimed.

"Hey guys!" The man called back.

"Arwin, back up. Your nose hairs look like a jungle." Cody told him.

"Sorry. Hey, do I have any bats in the cave?" The man got closer to the camera, opening his nostrils. "Huh? Check it out!"

"So you're the famous Arwin!" Bailey smiled. Freya waved shyly.

"Guys, you didn't tell me there were girls there! I'm all up in my nose!" Arwin exclaimed, quickly covering his face.

"I'm Bailey and this is Freya. I don't suppose the boys have mentioned us?" Bailey said to the clumsy man.

"Are you kidding me? Bailey, Cody sent me a 9 page email just about your hair." Arwin said annoyed.

"That was a typo! I wasn't writing about Baileys hair. It was supposed to say..Daily bear! Which is a column I write about bears. Daily." Cody said quickly, stuttering over his words.

"Oh! And Freya, you're Zack's girlfriend! Hes told me all about—" Arwin started.

"No I didn't!" Zack interrupted.

"But you—"

"No I didn't!" He interrupted again. Freya looked at Zack strangely because of his outburst while he nervously laughed.

"Nice saves, you two!" Arwin whispered to the twins. "Hey, your mom told me you're going to the museum of Greek antiquities! My cousin works there. You guys gotta look him up! His name's Milos Hakakopolis."

"Okay. What's he like?" Freya asked.

"He's a little quirky, awkward, clumsy. Nothing like me." Arwin said, resting his arms behind his head before falling backwards in his chair. "Here we go."

The class entered the museum as they marvelled at the ancient artifacts. "Wow! These artifacts are breathtaking." Bailey gasped, looking around.

London scoffed. "Hardly! I'm prettier than her. Prettier than her. Prettier than her!" London said pointing to the three identical statues. "Hey Zack, Freya, hree old ugly triplets!" She laughed.

"You know, you'd think in a fancy place like this they could at least afford statues with arms." Zack said turning to Freya.

"Zack, they're thousands of years old." Freya stated.

"Okay, their arm's have a little flab hanging down."  He joked. Freya smiled at him, shaking her head.

Cody stomped over to Zack and Freya after Bailey showed interest in the tour guide.

"Look at her drooling over him like he's some kind of Greek Adonis." Cody scoffed.

"Hello my name is Adonis!" The guide said turning to the students with a smile. "I will be your student tour guide. Come. Follow me!" He pointed to Bailey making her giggle.
