Authors Note: here is another chapter for you to enjoy, there are a bunch of time skips, but i decided not to post them as separate chapters as they then would be EXTREMELY short as you can see when you read it..the chapter itself isnt very long either, but the next one or the one after will probably be quite a bit longer, so you havee that to look forward to! Enjoy!
After Graduation: Chapter 9
After a while of enjoying the moon pool, the realized it was probably time to head back to the mainland. They had been gone for some time already and the boys were probably worried about them.
When they resurfaced at Wills boathouse, they found the two boys fast asleep on the ground, as if they had fallen asleep waiting for them. It was adorable. When when Emma looked at her watch, she found out it was 3 o'clock in the morning! No wonder they were asleep! They all headed back to Emma's to get some sleep themselves. They managed to get in without waking her parents, and soon enough they were all fast asleep.
They were woken up early the following morning by the ringing of a cellphone. Cleo answered her phone. "Hello? She said wondering who would call her this early in the morning, since she was still half asleep, she hadn't looked at the caller ID. Of course it was Lewis calling to check on them. They had completely forgotten that they had been asleep when they came back and that they obviously would be worried about what had happened. After Cleo assured him that they were fine, that they had not been moon struck and that they had not defeated some evil enemy, and after Bella told Will basically the same thing, they agreed they would meet up that afternoon to explain everything. The girls slept for another few hours, considering they did not get much sleep the previous night.
Later that same day they were all sitting in Bella's garden, since her parents were out. The girls were now well rested, and fully awake, in contrast to that morning. Even though Lewis and Will had spoken to their girlfriends a few hours earlier, they had still been worried, about them, and they weren't sure until they saw with their own eyes that they were safe. They couldn't believe it when the mermaids told them about what had happened. Therefore they decided to head out to mako and see for themselves. The girls told them they would see them there.
The girls obviously got there a lot quicker, so by the time Lewis and Will got there, they were chatting away at one thing or another. Lewis, who knew the cave whole lot better than Will did, immediately noticed the differences, but soon enough Will knew what was going on too. Not only did the cave look the same, also the feeling he had had from the first time he had been there was back. The magic was back.
