The Truth
"Rikki?!" Emma asked me for the third time. I snapped out of it. "What does it say?" asked Cleo. I gave her the test and I walked to my closet, picking out……nothing. "What kind of clothing do I wear if I'm pregnant?" Emma and Cleo looked at each other. "Try wearing like loose clothes that don't make you show your womb" Emma said. "Or just tee shirts and maybe maternity jeans" suggested Cleo. I sighed. I looked at me closet and picked my sweats and a tee shirt. "Is this good?" I asked them. "Perfect" Emma said. "Where are you going" Cleo asked. "I'm to going to the juice bar with Zane" "Oh, okay then just get ready and have fun" Emma said with smile while walking to the door. "Okay" I said with a smile. Emma and Cleo opened the door and just left. "Whatever" I mumbled.
3 hours later
I was at the juice bar and saw Rikki come in. She wasn't wearing what she likes to wear. She was in black sweats and a white tee shirt but this shirt had a message on it. "Kiss me huh?" I asked her. "Ha ha very funny" She said. I smiled at her."Nice shirt" I stated. She smiled. "I'm going to get another smoothie, want one?" I asked her. "A mango passion fruit please" She replied. I smiled and walked to Wilfred.
I was scared to death. I need to tell him the truth! I wrapped my arms around my stomach. Zane came back a minute later. He saw me with my arms around my stomach. "Are you okay?" He asked me. "Yeah totally and thanks" I said with a smile. "You're welcome" We leaned in and our lips collided together. But what I didn't know Miriam was there watching us. She walked up to us. "Having fun?" She asked us. We pulled away. She looked at me, seeing that my arms were around my stomach. "The only reason that you would wrap your arms around your stomach because maybe that your pregnant, right Rikki" She said to me. I turned to her. "Get a life!" I said and walked out. Zane followed me. "RIKKI!" He yelled. I turned around. "What?!" I said to him. "What happened?" he asked me. I started to cry. He hugged me tight. We walked to the edge of the boardwalk before you go into the water. "Zane if I was pregnant….would you leave me?" I asked him.
I looked at Rikki when she asked that question. "Of course not" I said,"….wait is it true?" Rikki looked at me. I looked into her eyes. I can tell it was true. She looked away nodding. I was shocked. "Rikki?" She looked at me with tears in her eyes. "I'm sorry Zane" Then footsteps were behind us. Someone pushed of the boardwalk and we fell in.
"ZANE!" I yelled. Zane looked up to see Miriam laughing. In a second, I became a mermaid. Miriam walked away. "Meet me in Mako Island" Zane told me. I did what he said and swam away. By the time I got there, Zane just walked in. "What are we going to do Zane?" I asked him. "Anything to keep you out of danger and becoming a mermaid" He said to me. I smiled at him. We leaned in and kissed once more. I sat down next to the moon pool and dried myself with my powers and turned back to normal. "It sometimes suck being a mermaid" I said to him," You always have deal with crap, like every time someone wets you to the bathroom or dive in the water and go to the moon pool!" "It looks easy to me" He said. I looked at him. "It's not easy at all, it's really hard keeping this secret" I explained to him," Only
you and Lewis know, it's not easy especially now that I'm pregnant Zane" He sighed. "Come on, let's go to the beach that will cheer you up" Zane said to me. I smiled and stood up. "Wait Zane, I bet you 10 dollars if a mermaid is faster than your boat" I said to him. "Bring it on!" As soon as he said that and dove in the moon pool and turned into a mermaid," Time starts now you know!" Zane ran out and we left at the same time, swimming with high speed, I didn't see a huge rock in my way and I bumped into it. I got a nose bleed. From the scent of the blood, sharks followed it.
I stopped my boat. I looked for Rikki, I couldn't find her. I knew something has to be wrong; I dove in the water looking for Rikki. Then horror filled in me. Sharks were swimming to her but very slow. I saw she was bleeding and lying on the ocean floor. I needed to do something but what?
I am truly sorry its so short guys. And remember review!
