Opposites at Full Throttle

Extra: The Hilarious Makeout Scene

Setting: It's late in the evening on the cruise, and Jack and Ariel have just returned to their cabin after a particularly enjoyable day. They're in a playful mood, having just won a dance-off at one of the ship's events. The energy between them is charged, but as they get closer, their natural tendency for awkwardness and bickering leads to a comically disastrous attempt at a romantic moment.

Scene 1: The Build-Up

Scene: Jack and Ariel are both grinning as they enter their cabin, still a bit out of breath from the dancing. Jack, feeling confident after their victory, pulls Ariel close, his hand resting on her waist.

Jack: (playfully) "I think we made quite the team out there. We should enter more competitions—maybe even professionally."

Ariel: (laughing, rolling her eyes) "Please, I was the one leading most of the time. You just managed to keep up."

Jack: (mock-offended) "Oh, is that so? I seem to remember you almost tripping over your own feet during that last spin."

Ariel: (teasingly) "Only because you have two left feet. But fine, I'll give you some credit—you didn't completely embarrass us."

Jack grins, his eyes glinting with mischief.

Jack: (leaning in closer) "Then how about we celebrate properly?"

Scene 2: The Attempt

Scene: The playful banter quickly escalates as Jack leans in to kiss Ariel. She meets him halfway, and for a moment, everything seems to be going smoothly. The kiss starts off sweet, but as they get more into it, things start to go hilariously wrong.

Jack: (mumbling against her lips, a little too eager) "You taste like... victory."

Ariel: (giggling, but trying to stay focused) "You're ridiculous... and maybe too confident."

In their excitement, Jack accidentally steps on Ariel's foot, causing her to yelp and pull back.

Ariel: (wincing, but laughing) "Ow! That's my toe, not the dance floor!"

Jack: (apologetic, but chuckling) "Sorry! Let's try that again..."

They both try to get back into the mood, but as they attempt to kiss again, their noses bump awkwardly, making them both pull back with a laugh.

Ariel: (giggling uncontrollably) "Okay, seriously, how are we this bad at this?"

Jack: (grinning, determined) "Third time's the charm. Come here."

Scene 3: The Disaster

Scene: They try to reposition themselves, but as Jack moves closer, he accidentally knocks over a decorative lamp on the nightstand. The lamp tumbles to the floor with a loud crash, startling them both.

Jack: (wincing, looking at the lamp) "Well... that's not a good sign."

Ariel: (laughing so hard she has to sit down on the bed) "Jack, I swear, we're like a walking disaster."

Jack: (joining her on the bed, still chuckling) "Hey, at least it's never boring."

They exchange a look, both of them catching their breath, and then, as if by unspoken agreement, they decide to try one more time. They lean in slowly, cautiously, trying not to laugh.

But just as their lips are about to meet, the ship hits a small wave, causing the bed to shift unexpectedly. Jack loses his balance and ends up tumbling onto Ariel, who's caught off guard and bursts into uncontrollable laughter.

Ariel: (gasping for breath between laughs) "This... is officially... the worst makeout session... ever!"

Jack: (laughing along with her, propping himself up on his elbows) "I guess we're just not cut out for romance."

Ariel: (still giggling, but reaching up to cup his cheek affectionately) "Or maybe we're just our own kind of romantic."

Scene 4: The Hilarious Yet Sweet Conclusion

Scene: After a moment, their laughter dies down, and they're left looking at each other, both still grinning from ear to ear. Jack shakes his head, his smile softening.

Jack: (with a playful sigh) "You know, we're pretty terrible at this."

Ariel: (nodding, her smile turning fond) "Yeah, we are. But... I wouldn't change it for anything."

There's a brief pause before Jack leans in again, this time more slowly, giving Ariel a chance to meet him halfway. The kiss they share now is tender, unhurried, and filled with the warmth of their shared humor.

When they finally pull back, they're both smiling, and the awkwardness has been replaced by a comfortable, affectionate connection.

Ariel: (softly, but still teasing) "Maybe we should stick to dancing."

Jack: (grinning, giving her a quick peck on the lips) "Or just accept that we're always going to be a little bit of a mess."

They share a laugh and settle down together on the bed, holding each other close, content in the knowledge that, even when things go hilariously wrong, they're perfectly imperfect together.

The Scene Ends:

The scene ends with them cuddled up on the bed, the earlier disasters forgotten. They may not have had the smooth, romantic moment they intended, but what they got was something even better—a moment that was uniquely theirs, filled with laughter, love, and the joy of being themselves together.
