10-Slowly coming home

Heather, smiling evilly, watched as Courtney fell from the great height. Lindsay, however, dd the only thing she could, she jumped after her. Heather's eye's widened in fear, her head starting looking around frantically.

"I'd better get out of here." She muttered to herself, before running off.

Down below on the beach, Lindsay was dragging a scared Courtney out of the water. The two girl's collapsed side-by-side on the sand. Courtney turned to face her savior, but her own onyx orbs dilated as she met Lindsay's body.

"Lindsay, your, your, your-," she stuttered.

"A mermaid? I know, cool, right?" Lindsay's leg's had been squished together and formed a glittery, pink tail. Taking deep breathes, Courtney hit her head back on the soft floor and exclaimed, "My life is too weird."

After the days events, Courtney was glad to go home. She walked through the door and called for her father. In stead she was engulfed with a hug.

"Oh, thank the Lord!" The girl's voice squeaked. Courtney pulled away and smiled.

"Bridgette!" She cried, pulling the blond back in for a hug.

"You're squishing me!"

"Sorry." Courtney said, releasing her from her clutches.

"Are you okay?" The surfer asked.

"What are you doing here?" Courtney yelled, ignoring her question.

"Taylor had a vision!"

"Heather threw you off a cliff!" Taylor shouted from behind Courtney. The brunette turned to face her other friend.

"Taylor!" She screamed, but didn't hug her.

"Yeah, it's me." She replied, ruining the moment. "What happened? I didn't see anything after that."

"Lindsay saved me." The three girl's made there way into the next room to sit down.

"Great, I thought I smelt something fishy." Taylor scoffed, crossing her arms across her chest and looking the other way.

"Is something wrong with Lindsay?" Courtney asked, furrowing her eyebrows to see if she could remember her doing anything bad.

"There's nothing wrong with Lindsay, Vampire's and Mermaid's don't get along very well, that's all."

"Wait, how did you guys get in my house?"

"Duncan." Bridgette said.

"Duncan's here?" Courtney questioned, looking around quickly to see if she could spot him.

"No." Taylor answered, "He showed us how to pick a lock."

"Courtney." A voice called from the front door. "Are you here?" It was Nigel.

"That's my dad."Courtney said. "De-fairfy!" She shot at Bridgette, only then noticing that she was all fairyed up. As soon as Bridgette had returned to her normal self, Mr. Black came walking in through the door. "Dad, look who stopped by. This is Bridgette and Taylor."

"Nice to meet you." Nigel smiled, with a nod of his head.

"And you." The two friend's greeted at the same time.

"I'll give you girl's some privacy." And so he left the room.

"That was too close."Courtney sighed, sinking back into the sofa.

"Tell me about it." Bridgette responded. She had already turned back into her fairy form, and Courtney had noticed that.

"Bridge, wouldn't it be easier to stay human?" She asked. Bridgette simply pointed to a gash in her cheek. It looked similar to the one Tina had had on her cheek. It was a silvery color, the color of fairy blood, with red stitches keeping it in place.

"Are you sure everything's okay?" Taylor inquired.

"Yeah, it was just Heather being...well, Heather." Courtney joked.

"We'd better get back." Bridgette said, looking up at the clock on the wall.

"Your going?" Courtney asked, sitting up straight in her seat. She hadn't seen her friends in a long time and didn't want them to leave so soon.

"We have to." Taylor told her. "No one knows we left."

"And there's too many tracker's still around." Bridgette added, getting to her feet.

"I really miss you guys." Courtney admitted.

"We miss you too." The blond cried back.

"You know, Duncan's about to go insane without you." Taylor explained. "He misses you the most."

"Tell him I love him."

"We will." Bridgette said, hugging Courtney tightly.

"Bye, Courtney." Taylor said, prying the fairy away from the brunette and out the window.

After watching the open window where her two friends had disappeared to for too long,Courtney finally made her way into the kicthen, where her dad was sitting at the island counter. The CIT took a seat on the old-fashioned, red stool beside him.

"Your friend gone?" He asked, from behind his newspaper.

"Yeah." Courtney whispered, feeling a slow burning in the back of her eye's. Nigel wrapped a warm arm around her shoulder's, hoping it would provide some sort of comfort for her. "Dad?"

"Yeah?"

"What's wrong with me?" Courtney rested her head on her father's shoulder, blinking back the tears. "Every time I love something it leaves."

"Nothing's wrong with you, Princess." Nigel said, "Sometimes people just have to do, what people have to do." Courtney groaned and hither head on the counter in front of her.

"My life sucks." She mumbled.
