Chapter 10
The Little Mermaid? It both shocked me and amused me at the same time. How could humans know enough about merpeople to make an entire movie about it? I knew that humans had an idea about merpeople, but they thought that we were mythical and their beliefs about us were very far from the truth. They thought of us as peace-loving creatures that had nothing but smiles and swam around all day. Just that was almost enough to make me laugh hysterically at the thought of EMMET being peace-loving! And Rosalie! Oh, just the thought of ROSALIE being sweet tempered and smiling all the time was enough to make me almost collapse of laughter. Humans didn't have a clue that we existed and they thought of us as sweet stories! Ha, we were closer to their 'vampires' than their ideas of a merperson! They thought that we could die! And that we could be born! The very idea was inconceivable to me.
Every merperson that I had ever encountered had woken up from a blackness. If they were babies, my age, or old, they had all stayed the same since they had woken up, it was starting to be known as the Vicis Orsa after an old human language that for some reason we all knew. It was the only thing that we knew, that and our names when we awoke. Of course after a few centuries we started to pick up on the humans' main language, or at least the one that most of the ones that we had seen spoke, English. We never forgot the Old Language though. In the Old Language Vicis Orsa means 'Time Beginning'. It is fitting since we all regarded the day that we awoke as the beginning of time, or at least our time.
"Thanks for watching with us Mr. Edward!" Stella's loud voice broke me out of my thoughts of our past and back to the present. I liked the present, Bella was in it, and I would get to stay with her here for 7 days.
"Your welcome Stella. Is the Little Mermaid your favorite movie?" By the way she had said 'The Little Mermaid', and the way her eyes shone made me think so.
"Yep, it's my favoritest movie in the whole wide world! Bella likes it too!" At that Bella blushed my favorite color again.
"It is NOT my favorite movie Stell! Maybe when I was your age but I don't...like it...anymore." She obviously still liked it but was too embarrassed to admit it. Stella's thoughts told me the same.
Why is Bella lying? She likes The Little Mermaid. She told me! Why doesn't she want to tell Mr. Edward her favorite movie? She likes him.
Two things registered in my mind as I listened to Stella's thoughts. The first, that she thought that Bella liked me. She was her cousin and had to know her emotions better than I did! The very thought of Bella liking me, it just knocked the breath out of me.
The second thing that registered in my mind from Stella's thoughts was that she called me Mr. Edward!
Mr. Edward! Just from those two thoughts I loved this kid!
"Come on, Mr. Edward! We want to watch the movie don't we?" Yep, I wanted to see how people thought of merpeople.
Come to think of it, humans are extremely sexist about merpeople. They usually pay more attention to the mermaids. They hardly ever mention mermen! Usually, it's just sirens. I wanted to see this movie and how they portrayed the so-called-mythical merpeople!
"Mr. Edward, come on!" I hadn't noticed Stella start to walk down below, I hastily followed.
"Stella you don't have to call me Mr. Edward."
"I want to. Bella has been teaching me about people's first first names. If the person is a boy, their name is Mr. If they are a girl, it's Mrs. I want to practice." Bella was an interesting and oh-so-enticing shade of red.
"Well, if Bella told you to do it, then go ahead."
"Thanks Mr. Edward! Can we go now?"
"Of course Stell, lets go, come on Edward!" I could see that Bella wanted to get us moving before Stella said anything else.
I was following them when the wind changed and Bella's scent was sent straight into me.
Sorry again for how short this was! The Old Language was Latin by the way. Remember this merperson history, it will be important!
Mr. Edward! Ha!
If you want the next chapter dedicated to you, be the first to review!(That rhymed!) Another thing that rhymes is Stella and Bella! I never noticed that before.
