H2O Just Add Water Chapter 9
It's been a few days and Rikki is the only one who won't give Kyle a chance. If we go inside her café she usually ignores him. And what's worse is that I meet the two guy's who had buckets with them. The one without the water was Rikki's boyfriend, the other one was Nate. They tried to apologize but I didn't take it.
We are sitting in Rikki's café right now ordering some drinks. I decide to try a strawberry smoothie. She said the first one was on the house. Rikki brings it back and she joins us to talk. "What are we gonna do about the rocks?" I wonder. I'm just glad there were some small ones to carry in the net. Some of the bigger rocks weighed down the boats.
"We don't know who is behind this." Rikki mentioned.
"No, but we can try to figure it out." Cleo said.
"Good idea," Emma agreed.
"Sorry I'm late." Kyle said as he came in.
"I should get back to work." Rikki was in a rush to get away from Kyle.
He sat down next to me. "When is she going to stop that?"
"Probably when she trusts you." Lewis said. "And it doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon."
"She was a little hard on me when I first joined the group." Bella added.
"Really?" Kyle wondered.
"Yeah," Bella responded. "I guess she has a hard time excepting some people."
"I guess that's understandable." Kyle agreed.
"Do we have any idea about the rocks?" Cleo asked.
"My thought was that another powerful mermaid or really strong magic had to move the rocks." Lewis stated.
"Another mermaid?" Lilly asked.
"The only other mermaid we know about is Kyle's sister." Bella said. "Could it be her?"
"That's impossible." Kyle answered. "She's dead."
"Could she be getting revenge on you?" Rikki wondered.
"No, and I thought you were working." Kyle said
"I am," Rikki answered. I'm just giving these drinks to customers." Rikki left the conversation.
"Do you think your sister could be trying to get revenge on you?" Emma questioned.
"I highly doubt it." Kyle said. "She trusted me with her secret from the day I found out."
"Yes, but that's still a possibility, isn't it?" Lewis added. "Sometimes the dead like to come back for unfinished business."
"You don't believe that stuff, do you?" Cleo asked.
"It's interesting." Lewis protested.
"But she would have had to be a powerful mermaid, right?" Rikki came back to the conversation. She had empty dishes, mostly cups, to bring back to the kitchen.
"Now you guys are accusing my sister about something when she's dead." It sounds like Kyle's feelings are starting to get hurt. I can hear it in his voice.
"We're just throwing out possibilities." Rikki said.
"I thought you had work." Kyle reminded Rikki again. He decided to leave the café.
Should I go with him? I probably should. "I'll be back." I told everyone. I walk outside and I see Kyle staring out at the water. "It's probably not your sister, after all, she's gone." I tried to comfort Kyle when I stood there next to him.
"I just never thought of it like that even though it's only been a few days since we moved those rocks." Kyle said still facing the water. "I thought she really trusted me."
"Now it's like you're believing them." I pointed out. "Rikki only suggested that because she doesn't really trust you yet. She's just messing with you."
"Yeah." Is all Kyle had to say.
"You forgot you're water." Zane came outside.
"I didn't order anything." Kyle said as we turned around.
Nate tripped Zane which made him tumble. The water spilled all over me. I didn't say anything, I just ran towards water.
"What was that for?" Kyle asked.
"I tripped." Zane said.
"It looked like you tripped on purpose." Kyle is starting to argue. "Look, I know your girlfriend has something against me but it doesn't me you have to pull a trick like that, even if it was meant for me and you missed." He just left at this point and didn't bother to look for Chrissie since he knew where she would be.
Hey, sorry I haven't updated this fan fiction in a few years. I have a few ideas in mind but I just didn't know how to get there. I hope you like it.
