"Hey, guys!" A guy's voice came from Cody's computer.

"Hey, look, it's Arwin," Cody said, grabbing Zack.

"Arwin, hey, what's up?" Zack asked before he smiled at me.

"Well, actually, me. I'm on Mr. Tipton's helicopter. I'm coming to visit you guys," Arwin said.

I soft chuckled, realizing all the stories that Zack and Cody have told me about their pranks or mishaps with Arwin back at the Tipton Hotel.

"Awesome. When are you coming onboard?" Cody asked.

"Now! I'm using a new device I invented for Mr. Tipton. It can safely eject you anywhere," Arwin laughed.

"This can't be safe," I said as I rubbed my forehead.

"I'm basically in a giant rubber ball," Arwin explained.

"This really can't be safe," I said louder, this time. Zack chuckled as he heard me.

"Oh, it's time to go. Okay, here we go!" Arwin said.

Zack, Cody, and I looked up when we heard helicopter blades and a hatch opening. If it wasn't for the fact that the camera inside the ball was still going on, you could hear Arwin screaming inside the ball. It bounced almost everywhere. And of course, it went right over the railing and into the water.

"Arwin, are you okay?" Cody asked.

"Sure, this thing's totally waterproof," Arwin shrugged. Then the sound of rushing water was heard.

We were able to get Arwin out of the water with a net, and somehow, and I have absolutely no idea how Arwin was rolled up tighter in the net than a sushi roll.

Zack, Cody, and I were unraveling the net when Mr. Moseby came back.

"Arwin, always a pleasure to see you. But here's a thought. Maybe next time you should just walk up the old gangplank," Mr. Moseby said.

"Are you kidding?" Arwin said as he got out of the netting. "Those things are death traps."

I took a deep breath in and slowly exhaled it, which almost sounded like air being let out of a balloon. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

"Arwin, so great to see you," Zack said.

Zack, Cody, and Arwin hugged. "Hey, guys," Arwin said, "Oh, your mom shows me pictures of you two all the time, but you can't hug a picture. Well, you can, but the paper cuts are nasty." Arwin looked at me, "You must be Esme, Zack's girlfriend. Their mom's showed me some pictures with you in them."

I smiled and nodded, "Yep, the one and only. It's a pleasure to meet you. The boys have told me so many different stories with you."

Before I could go any further, Zack interrupted me, "So, Arwin, what brings you here? Besides a giant bouncy ball."

"Well, Mr. Tipton has given me a very important job," Arwin said as he grabbed a towel to dry off, "I have created a supercomputer that's going to automate the entire ship. So now the S.S. in S.S. Tipton is going to stand for "Smart Ship"."

Zack and Cody had positive reactions, meanwhile, Mr. Moseby and I were both on the concerned side.

After work, I decided to go to the gym. It wasn't very often, but I occasionally went. Mostly when Zack had to do double shifts.

I was walking on the steps of the step climber, listening to music when I saw Zack with London and Woody. "Babe? What are you doing?" I asked as I started walking backward up the stairs.

"These 2 need help with passing P.E. What better place to help them than here?" Zack asked, "And look at you. Walking backward on the step climber. That's impressive."

"Yeah, it's what happens when I work out when you're working," I said with a smile, "I've slowly picked up how to do this when you do double shifts."

The next day, I found out that Callie, the computer, had a huge crush on Cody. And it was becoming a huge issue. When Cody wasn't around, or he was doing something she didn't like, she made all the equipment everywhere acting haywire.

I mean, it was nice having the flower shop at a cool temperature so they wouldn't freeze or wither in the heat. 

I gasped when I walked into the flower shop, and they were all practically popsicles. All my hard work, out the window.

"Arwin!" I shouted, running to find him. "Arwin, Callie froze my entire flower shop!"

"You're not the only one with a complaint. I gotta figure out what her problem is," Arwin said as he ran away. 

I huffed, annoyed with the situation. I grabbed some space heaters and tried to warm up the shop a little bit so the ice would let up. 

As the day went on, after my shift, and things got weirder. I went to open my bedroom door, and it wouldn't open.

"I'm sorry, I can not let you leave," Callie said.

I growled, annoyed with this machine. I figured she wouldn't be able to mess with my books, so I started to read. I heard something and went to open my bedroom door. I smiled when it opened. "Yes!" I exclaimed excitedly.

The next day came, and Arwin tried to leave. I felt really bad because I know he had good intentions with the smart computer, but unfortunately for all of us, the robot was just too smart, and creepily too human. 

I watched as Arwin put a giant magnet on a constructor's hat, and strapped it onto his head by velcro. I sighed, knowing it wasn't going to work. The moment that Zack and Cody said bye to Arwin and he was over the water, he fell right in. 

"I knew that was gonna happen," I said as I shook my head.
