Chapter 4

The air was thick as I saw my beloved crush on the beach however there was only a few problems. One, he didn't like me well at least I don't think he does. Two, all the girls at school are in love with him. The third problem, my over protective big brother, Zak and my dad and the fact I am a mermaid princess. Suddenly I heard the knock at the door. "Who is it" I call out and my heart stopped when I heard him answer. "It's Shawn, may I come in?" I heard my crush say. I ran over to the door allowing him in. He took a look at me and smiled. "Hey Sakura, you busy this weekend?" Shawn asks me in a voice that's almost like the sweet warm caramel that you find in ice cream. "No, I'm not bust why?" I ask hoping he's asking me out. He just rustles his hair and asks "Do you, you know, wanna go out with me?" I practically gape at the boy and automatically without even thinking I say "Yes, I'd love too. What time and where?" he looks at me and looks relieved and says "7 at the movie theater. Oh and Sakura?" I turn to look at him and before I knew it his lips were on mine and they tasted like cinnamon. We pulled apart and he gave me his number and left. I smiled and was about to run to my phone but then I heard a knock at the back door. I sighed and went to check who it was. When I opened the curtains there I saw my brother. His hair dyed black and his eyes practically glowing purple thanks to his powers he got from daddy. "Zak? What are you doing here?" I ask quickly in surprise. "I'm here to see my aka no imoto, what's wrong with that" he shrugs. "Nothing I guess. Does daddy know you're here?"I ask and he nods. "He told me had a bit to do this week and asked me to babysit you including today, he doesn't trust you alone with the current of the ocean. And that is a lie. He wants to train me in using my powers more." I gave him a look and he smirked "Oh hi mom and dad" he says I casually. "I'm not falling for it. Not one bit" suddenly I hear a chuckle behind me "You two are always the same" my mother says with her brown eyes smiling at us. Suddenly my brother picks me up and I let out a small yelp. "PUT ME DOWN THIS INSTANT YOU OAF" I scream at my brother "OF TO THE PRINCESSES ROOM".

1 HOUR LATER

We're all at the table and my parents are talking with my brother about his adventures and then my cell rings I excuse myself and answer "Hey Sakura, I heard your brothers in town, need a break?" It was Momo and I'm pretty sure I've never been happier to hear those words. "Yes" Suddenly I heard a knock at the door and opened it "Good 'cause either way we're here!" I saw Hikari, Kiki, Mizu, and Lilia with her. "Uncle K, Auntie L we're kidnapping Sakura for a bit, bye" she grabbed me and pulled me without an answer from my parents and I see them and my brother looking shocked. "Let's go! This'll be fun!" as we drove we listened, sang, and danced too the music on the radio then we pulled up to the mall. "Guys I don't have my wallet with- "I stop because I see Kiki with my wallet and said "I figured you'd need this." We enter the mall and go shopping we decided on getting something to drink or eat but that's when I see my mom, dad, brother, and aunt Rina. We decide to go there either way. We got a table next to them and they smiled at us but I was too distracted to acknowledge them. "Well, well ain't it Sakura, will you take my offer up and join the group" Anggie asks me. Everyone falls silent watching her staring hopefully at me and me staring daggers at her. "Why? So I can hurt people? No thank you" my voice was bitter that's when Hikari speaks up "You ask her the same question and get the same answer why don't you leave her alone" Suddenly Anggie turns bitter "Why don't you just shit your mouth, bitch" Anggie says like she's the queen of the world. "You think you're the queen of the world, don't you? Well news flash your majesty no one likes you because of how you act and insult them. So leave us alone before you or I do something we'd both regret, bitch" I say to her and my family looks at me in shock. My father is gonna lecture me about saying bitch but I don't care. "Fine but Sakura remember this you can join our group at any point. Why? Because you got the stuff for it" she turns and leaves us. "That girl's delusional" I say with my teeth clenched in anger. "Girls do you guys wanna have a slumber party?" my father asks. We all say in the lowest voice possible but still loud "YES!"
