A/N This is the fanfic I came up with after listening to a couple people's thoughts on the story I posted titled "New Fanfic" Hope you enjoy!
I couldn't believe this was happening AGAIN. I thought that after the girls defeated the water tentacle that there would be no more problems with the full moon. Yet
here I was being dragged to Mako by my moonstruck girlfriend. Bella kept turning around and smiling at me like a lovestruck idiot every few seconds until
we finally got to the Moon Pool. As soon as she let go of me I quickly got out of the water before the full moon could pass overhead, because I knew what kind of
mess I would get myself into if I stayed in any longer. Suddenly Lewis and Zane tumbled in through the land entrance carrying Rikki and Cleo.
"Why did you bring them here! We don't need 3 moonstruck mermaids!" I said.
"Relax" Zane said "We shielded their eyes the whole way here, they haven't seen the full moon, and they aren't going to either"
"And they wouldn't let us leave without them and we couldn't leave you here to deal with Bella alone" Lewis added.
"Fine" I muttered "Just lay them down over there and help me get Bella out of the water"
Zane and Lewis walked over to the corner of the cave where you couldn't see the moonlight and put down Cleo and Rikki. Then we all walked over to the Moon
Pool and started to pull Bella out.
"Noooo Will don't make me get out" She said "Come join me we could swim together, wouldn't that be fun?"
"Um. No" I replied quickly.
After a quite some time we finally managed to drag Bella out of the Moon Pool and pin her down so she couldn't get back in.
"The moon will pass overhead in about 5 minutes" Lewis said, checking his watch. "So until then we'll just have to prevent Bella from causing any more trouble
and keep Rikki and Cleo from seeing the full moon"
"Lewis, come swim with us"
"Yeah that would be fun, you can come too Zane"
We all exchanged glances, then turned around and found Cleo and Rikki in the Moon Pool begging for Zane and Lewis to come swimming with them.
"Well we might as well leave them in there, as long as we don't let them get to us and don't get in we should be fine." I said.
"Yeah" Zane agreed. "Better than trying to get them out and one of us falling in when the moon passes over"
So we waited. The whole time we had to listen to Rikki go on about how amazing Zane was and how cool his dirt bike is and all that stuff. It didn't help that Cleo
wouldn't stop saying how smart Lewis was and she kept begging and begging him to swim with her. Bella just stared into Will's eyes and kept giggling every once in
awhile. Finally the full moon was over and the girls woke up from their trance.
"Wha.. What happened? Will why are you pinning me down!?" Bella said.
"Did we get moonstruck again"Cleo groaned.
"Yes" Lewis replied as he and Zane helped pull Cleo and Rikki out of the Moon Pool.
"Will" Bella said.
"Yeah" I replied.
"You can get off of me now."
"Oh sorry" I said as I moved aside so she could sit up.
"So what happened?" She asked.
"Oh nothing much" I replied "You went crazy and ran out of Cleo's house and you dragged me with you, you're really strong by the way, then you jumped in the
water and you pulled me to Mako with you, then Lewis and Zane showed up with Cleo and Rikki and we all pulled you out of the Moon Pool but then Rikki
and Cleo got in so we just waited until the full moon was over." Bella gasped, so did Rikki and Cleo. I hadn't realized they'd been listening too.
"Will I'm so sorry! I could've drowned you!" Bella said
"It's fine" I told her "It didn't take that long anyway and I'm a freediver so I just held my breath."
"Okay" Lewis said standing up. "I think it's time for us all to get back home we'll talk about this again tomorrow"
The next day I met up with the gang at Rikki's to discuss the full moon last night. When I walked in Cleo, Rikki, Bella, Lewis, and Zane were already sitting at a table. I walked over and sat next to
Bella. As soon as I sat down Lewis started talking.
"Ok so obviously you girls are still affected by the full moon even though we thought you weren't" Lewis said "So we need a plan for next month"
"How about you stay with the girls at Cleo's house, Zane stay at the dock in case they get moonstruck and make it that far, and I'll stay at the Moon Pool in case you
and Zane both fail" I suggested.
"Are you kidding me" Zane said "That's-"
"Genius!" Lewis interrupted him.
"What?!" Everyone exclaimed.
"Think about it, every time you girls get moonstruck us guys end up chasing you but we can never catch you, so if we're there waiting for you we would have a better
chance at stopping you from doing anything." Lewis explained. I just nodded.
"Will that's a great idea!" Bella exclaimed, giving me a quick kiss on the cheek. I blushed.
"Well, what do we do now?" Cleo asked.
"I guess we just wait until the next full moon to test out Will's theory" Rikki said.
"Let the countdown begin" I said.
A/N Make sure you read the author's note at the beginning of the next chapter! It's VERY important and is kind of the key to understanding it.
