I don't own Monster High. Sirena is my OC though. Enjoy Chapter 3!
Chapter 3
"A what?" Frankie asked in interest and disbelief. Being only sixteen days old, she'd never heard of a mermaid before. "A mermaid." Sirena repeated. "A half human, half fish creature that lives in the water. That's why my feet are webbed and I live in the ocean."
"Fascinating." breathed Clawdeen. "Ugh." Ghoulia agreed.
At that moment, Deuce walked up to the table. He whistled low when he spied Sirena. "Wow." he said, seeming to forget that he had a girlfriend. Even though his eyes were covered by his red sunglasses, everyone could tell he was staring at Sirena. He sat down across from her and said, "You are one hot monster."
"Sirena is NOT a monster." Cleo spat out snottily. "She's a mystical creature. And she's definitely not that hot, Deuce."
Deuce ignored Cleo's comment and continued to stare at Sirena. She giggled shyly and brushed her black hair back with a hand. "Even though Cleo doesn't think so, I am a monster. And, sorry to disappoint you, but I've already got a boyfriend." she informed him.
This got everybody's attention. "No way! Give us details ghoul-friend!" Draculaura squealed in a high, girly voice.
Sirena smiled and reached into her purse for her wallet. "Well, his name is Frost Neige. His dad is the Yeti, and they live in Tibet, so it's a long distance relationship. We met at the beach three years ago. I was in the sand singing, because my mom forbids me to sing underwater."
"Why?" Clawdeen asked, leaning in intently. Her yellow eyes glowed bright as she tried to picture Sirena's boyfriend.
"Not to brag or anything, but the voice of a mermaid is the most beautiful, enchanting sound in the entire world. When we sing and people hear us, they're instantly put into a trance, and they try to find us. If we sing in the water, they jump in and drown trying to find us. That's why people are afraid of us and call us monsters." explained Sirena. "My mom doesn't like the idea of killing innocent people, but mermaids have to sing. It's an important part of our lifestyle. So she lets me and my sisters sing on the beach whenever we want. Anyways, Frost heard me singing, and he found me, along with a million other people. But he was the only one who took the time to get to know me. The other ones stayed around because I was pretty. He looked inside of me." Sirena's cheeks grew rosy as she blushed. "He said that even if I wasn't pretty and didn't have a beautiful voice, I'd still enchant him."
"Awww!" Draculaura, Clawdeen, and Frankie cooed in unison.
Finally Sirena opened her purse and pulled out a photograph of her with a tall boy. He had shaggy white hair that was long enough to almost block his ice blue eyes. He had a very thin layer of fur underneath a blood red turtleneck sweater and black cargo pants. A gold medal hung around his neck, and Sirena had her arms wrapped lovingly around his waist. "This is from four months ago, the last time I visited him. It was on the same weekend that his shockey team won gold. He's really good at shockey."
"Ooh, an athlete. Tell us more!" Clawdeen demanded, pressing for information. "He's an average student. He receives B's, and the occasional A. His best class is Clawculus. He's got two pets, who are absolutely the sea's knees! One is a Himalayan mouse hare named Crystal, and the other is a pika named Kaba, which is the Tibetan word for 'snow.' He likes to snowboard. He absolutely loves the snow. Winter's his favourite season, which is totally opposite with me. I'm more of a summer girl." After letting the ghouls look at the photo, Sirena brought it close to her heart. "Even though he lives in such a cold climate, it hasn't affected his personality in the least. He's got a heart that's warmer then the sun. Being with him makes me feel even more comfortable then when I'm in a soothing, hot salt water bath."
Before anyone could say anything else, the headmistress walked up to their table. "Good afternoon girls. Who is this?" she asked, eyeing Sirena.
"This is Sirena, Ma'am, the new ghoul. I was going to bring her by your office after lunch to confirm her registration and ask a few questions." Lagoona answered respectfully.
Sirena extended a hand warmly in the headmistress' direction. "It's a honour to be attending your school Ma'am." she spoke politely, flashing a shy smile.
The headmistress' lips curved in the slightest hint of a smile as she shook Sirena's hand. "Thank you Sirena. Why don't you both come down to my office now so that you won't be late for your class."
"Alright." Sirena and Lagoona stood up, leaving their trays on the table. "Bye mates. I guess we'll see you later." Lagoona said.
Everyone waved as they left. "Bye Lagoona. Bye Sirena!" Draculaura called.
When the two monsters had fully disappeared, Frankie turned to her friends. "I just had the most voltage idea! Let's have a welcoming party for Sirena!"
"That is a good idea!" Clawdeen agreed. "Where should we have it?"
"How about the swimming pool?" Draculaura suggested. "After all, she loves the water."
"Brilliant! Draculaura, that's the perfect place! You are so smart, that if I didn't know you, I'd think you were a mad scientist!" Frankie cheered enthusiastically. "Who else likes the idea?"
Everyone put up their hands except for Cleo. "I think the whole thing is batty. Nobody will come." She snapped rudely, trying to tear down the idea.
"Aw come on Cleo. It sounds like fun." Deuce begged, trying to persuade his ghoul friend. "I'm going. You could be my drop-dead gorgeous date."
Cleo stared at him for a few seconds, then finally sighed. "Alright. I'll go. But only because you're going."
Frankie pumped an arm up in the air with excitement and almost lost her hand. "Yes!" This party was going to be the biggest bash in the history of Monster High. She just knew it.
