Tia: Heeyyy people! This is our first story so you better like it.

Caitlin: *stands in the corner quietly*

Shelby: me, Tia and Caitlin are the owners of this account and we will all be writing this story.

Tia: no this is a fanfic of H2O, but we pretty much have our own ideas.

Shelby: unless you count the fact that whenever they touch water, they turn into mermaids... but other than that!

Caitlin: AND WE'RE ROCKIN' IT!

Shelby: O_o

Tia: anyways, I'm gonna be writing this chapter! So enjoy!

Shelby: OR ELSEEEE.

Lily's POV

Once upon a time, there was three magical teenage mermaids. They shared adventures together and kept the fact that they are mermaids a secret.

Whoa, hold up. I'm not really fond of this whole 'fairytale' introduction. Why can't we just start the story? We aren't princesses.

Okay, that's better. I'm Lily, your ordinary teenager. I text, I cheer, gossip, have a boyfriend, and whenever I get wet, I grow a massive mermaid tail. No biggy.

"Hey!" My little friend Sierra entered my backyard with her usual look: cute, pink little skirt, pink lacy tank-top and high-heeled sandals. Her normal little hairstyle: up in a messy ponytail, her golden curls bobbing up and down as she walked. She was a short teen from Puerto Rico, so she has that little Spanish zest to her style.

"Hey," I replied, tossing hamburgers on the grill, preparing for the Fourth of July party I hold every year. "Where's Kat?"

"I dunno, working?" Sierra shrugged, sitting cross-legged on the grass.

"You know there's a chair-" I slid my feet over to the chair, "-right next to you, right?"

"I don't FEEL like SITTING in a CHAIR," she whined.

"Well then..." I faltered quietly, heading back to the grill.

"Dios mío, por qué todo el mundo tan molesto? Por qué no puedo simplemente sentarse en el suelo en paz?..." She muttered something in Spanish, and no, I have no idea what it meant.

(if you wanna know what it really means, PM us, or use Google Translate)

About an hour later, we walked along the shore, looking for the Bait Shop. That's where our friend Kat works. But along the way, we ran into one of my favorite people.

"Hey," Justin ran over all shirtless, tossing a football back and forth with his stupid pervert of a friend, Mike. Like the good boyfriend he is, he hugged me and kissed me on my forehead.

"Hi!" I said happily, telling myself not to blush.

"Aye, let's keep it G-rated over 'ere, 'ight?" Sierra said, prying us off each other. Mike nodded in disgust.

"Yeah, that's gross. How could you put your lips on that lizard?"

"You're just upset 'cause you don't have a lizard to put your lips on," I smirked. Sierra laughed slightly.

"Whatevs. Let's ditch," Mike walked back the other way.

Justin turned to me. "Uhh, see you later? I can make it to the party."

"Sure," I smiled and followed Sierra to the Bait Shop.

Sure enough, there was our friend Kat sitting at the counter of the shop, boredly playing with the hooks and sinkers. Her face lightened when she saw us.

"Hey goth girl," Sierra greeted ever so politely. Kat stuck her pierced tongue out. Kat could easily be mistaken by goth. Her outfit for the day? Black skinny jeans, baggy black shirt hanging off one shoulder, with a skull on it that has a checkered bow. Black makeup. Black streaks in her hair. You get the point. But she definitely don't act goth.

"I'm so BORED!" she exclaimed, growled, then chucked a hook into the vast blue ocean. She guiltily looked at me, fake-smiled and held out her hand. "That'd be three fifty, please."

"No thanks!" I smacked her hand away. "Anyways, happy fourth of July!"

"Yeah, REEAAL happy," she pouted. "I have to sit here ALL DAY."

"Actually, you get off in about five minutes."

Kat's face lightened. "YIPPE!" she danced around in a circle, then leaped over the counter.

"But you have another five minutes!"

She tilted her head and put her hand of my shoulder. "Oh, Lily. Lily, Lily, Lily," she tsk-tsked. "When are you gonna realize that I. DON'T. CARE."

Sierra stepped towards Kat. "It's okay, you always have Jeremy to help cheer you up!" she turned her back towards us, wrapped her arms around herself, acting like she was kissing someone. "Oh, Jeremy!"

"SHUT UP!" she pushed Sierra, making her get a mouthful of sand. "He's not my boyfriend anymore, and I'm totally over him! He's a lying, cheating, little bi-"

"HEY, LANGUAGE!" I cut her off. "Can we just get to the party?"

"I swear, the next time I see him, I'm gonna take a hotdog, and sh-I HEARD PARTY!" Kat shoved out of the way and back-flipped down the beach. I shrugged and front-flipped.

Kat's POV

The Fourth of July party was awesome at first. Mike sling-shotted water balloons off the roof of the house into the street, Lily and Justin had their little 'boyfriend and girlfriend' fun, and I hung out with my football-player friends. Everyone was happy.

Until HE showed up.

There Jeremy was, his tan skin, flippy golden-brown hair and his charming grin, walking straight towards me.

"What do you want?" I complained. He tilted his head.

"Come on, Kat, I know you still want me," he placed both hands on the upper part of my arms, but I just pushed him away.

"Ugh, you're a loser, Jeremy," I walked to the front of the house, almost through the door, when...

SPLASH!

My jaw dropped as I looked down at my dripping wet body. "MIKE, YOU MORON!" I shouted up at him as he laughed hysterically.

I was frozen. My eyes were panicked. Now everyone was staring at me, and I probably only had about ten more seconds until I went totally mermaid on the party. The only people who know are Lilly, Sierra, Justin and Jeremy. Without hesitation, I dashed into the house, also filled with people, praying that I would have enough time to make it to the bathroom. Please, please, please...

Tia: AND CLIFF-HANGER! XD

Caitlin: I hate you. -_-

Shelby: xD

Tia: anyways, I hope you liked the first chapter, please review and tell us how we did. Thanks!
