Rikki's POV

I woke up and right away looked at my clock. It read 7:37a.m; "What am I doing up this early? It's way too early for me." I thought to myself. And with that, I closed my eyes and went back to sleep.

About five minutes later, my phone started ringing and I slowly woke up. I picked up my phone to see Zane was the one calling me. As I was deciding whether to pick I up or leave it and go back to sleep, it dawned on me what time it was.. "Why was he calling me this early?" I kept thinking. But I couldn't think straight so I put my phone on silent, placed it back down on the nightstand, and went back to sleep.

At 9:46 I finally woke up. I picked up my phone; a picture of a full moon appeared "Oh great." I thought sarcastically. After I closed it, I noticed I had eleven missed calls; all from Zane. I checked for any voicemails; none. Typical of him. I realized it might be important so I got dressed and headed over to his house.

As I arrived at his house, the door opened but it was neither Zane nor his dad. It was the bitch I really did not want to deal with right now; Merriam. "Ew, what are you doing here?" She said in that snotty voice of hers. "Oh so it's against the law to go to my boyfriends house now?" I said. Unlike her, I like to fight fire with fire; sometimes literally. "Whatever he's not even home, he's at Rikki's." She said while starting to walk away. "Whatever." I said, mocking her. With that, I left and headed towards Rikki's.

As I walked into Rikki's, I immediately noticed Zane, Emma, Cleo and Lewis all sitting at a booth. I walked over and sat down next to Zane. When I was settled, he put his arm around me. Next to us, were Cleo and Lewis and across from us was Emma. I was about to ask Zane why he called me so many times when Bella and Will walked over laughing and talking as usual. "Hey guys." Emma said. Bella replied, "Hey. Oh and Emma, some guy was sitting at a table outside looking for you. He saw us talking earlier and figured I knew you." "Really," Emma answered, "what does he look like?" "He has dark brown, almost black hair, kind of fit, hmm…" Bella was thinking but before she could tell her anything else, Emma bolted outside. Cleo and I immediately looked at each other and said "Ash."

Emma's POV

Ash! He was back too! I missed him so much! I raced outside and looked to my right, there he was, looking handsome as usual; well, at least from what I remember. "Ash!" I called out. He immediately looked up and smiled. I smiled and walked towards him. When I reached the table, he stood up and we both hugged each other. After the hug we shared a long, meaningful kiss and finally sat down.

"I missed you so much." I was the fist one to speak. "Me too," He paused, "we need to talk." It was then that I realized the last time he saw me I was a mermaid. I still am but he doesn't know about Bella and everything that happened. I could tell right then and there this was going to be a long, maybe even regretful talk.

"About what?" I asked, acting clueless. "The last time I saw you, you were a," he lowered his voice to a whisper now, "mermaid, are you still one?" "Yes," I replied, "but maybe we should go someplace more private." I stood up and took his hand. Without hesitation, he stood up and started walking with me.

Zane's POV

"Zane," Rikki got my attention and I looked over to her, "Why did you call me so many times?" Oh no. I completely forgot about that. "Here lets talk in the office." "Um, alright" she nervously replied to me. After that, I took her hand and we walked into the office.

Inside the office, I closed the door and Rikki took a seat on the couch. I remained standing, realizing I was starting to pace. "So, what's on your mind?" Rikki asked. I immediately stopped pacing. I turned to look at her and I smiled. "I have a surprise for you."
