Thank you sooo much my lovely reviewers! :) I love reading what you have to say! Remember if you have any songs/ideas/storylines just let me know!

Thank you VampireGirl3381 for your review & to you (and other readers) I'll try my ABSOLUTE hardest to finish this story! I understand how annoying an unfinished story is & I really don't want mine to be like that!

This chap is for Marril96 because of her reviews & also she suggested writing this chapter like this

Disclaimer: Don't own H2o Just add Water (if I did we would already have a Season 4!)

Enjoy the chapter & review! I need 10 before I put up Chap 7. Chap 8 is gonna be pretty big (cliffy & all) and there'll be one of my big storylines beginning then!

Chapter 6 – When it all falls apart (By the Veronica's)

Emma's POV

Two days later, I mustered up the courage to go to the Juicenet Café after staying at home depressed, watching TV, ignoring 32 calls and messages from Cleo, 27 from Rikki, 5 from Lewis & 2 from Zane, and thinking up excuses to give my parents as to why I wasn't out with the girls.

As I reached the same café that just 3 days ago I was standing outside absolutely excited about seeing my friends again, I was actually thinking about how life could get any worse than this.

Don't know who my real friends are (anymore)
I put my faith in you
What a stupid thing to do (when it rains it pours)

As I walked into the café I scanned the room and saw Rikki and Zane behind the counter with another girl the same age as us with short red hair. Rikki was making a drink while talking to Zane who was holding a tray, while the red headed girl looked like she needed to talk to one -or both- of them, and began looking around the room.

Cleo & Bella were sitting at a table together both quite solemn looking. Cleo had her back facing me and Bella was mixing her drink with a straw.

I walked over to an empty table and sat down feeling quite out of place as every other table had groups of people talking or laughing and having a good time. I stopped looking around thinking that couldn't be helping my mood after all, so I slouched in my seat not sure what I was still doing her and noticed the red-headed girl was walking over to me.

When she reached my table she smiled down at me politely before saying "Welcome to Rikki's Café, are you ready to order a drink?" and finished it with another smile.

"Um can I have a blueberry burst" I replied with a forced smile.

"Sure, coming right up. Are you new around here or visiting? I haven't seen you around before" the red head said to me writing down my order.

"Yeah sort of" I started but was interrupted by Rikki who I hadn't seen approaching my table.

"Hi Em, you should of told us you were coming" Rikki said.

"Why? So you hide any other secrets!" I said putting my defensive guard up.

"What! No way! That's not what I meant!" said Rikki before turning to the girl and saying "Go give the order to Zane please Sophie".

She walked away and as soon as she was out of earshot, I said "Let me guess, she knows we're mermaids too?"

Rikki scoffed, unamused and took a seat next to me "What's gotten into you Emma?"

Raising my voice I said "Me! Me? Whats gotten into me! How about the fact that my best friends have been lying to me while I have been away?"

This scored us pretty much everyone in the café's attention, including Zane who was stopping the red-headed girl (Sophie was it?) from bringing me out my drink. The red-headed girl was now watching us too and even Cleo and Bella had now spotted Rikki & I after hearing the fight and the two of them were coming over to my table too.

Rikki rolled her eyes and said "We weren't lying to you, we just never told you about it! It was something we wanted to tell you face to face" I shook it off with a scoff and a dirty look at her, but she seemed different in the way she was fighting.

Don't get me wrong; Rikki and I have more than our fair share of fights in the past -some of which have almost broken our group up- but always in the past neither of us were trying, or going to back down; but this time it seemed like Rikki was trying to end it .

"YEAH WELL GUESS WHAT? MAYBE I HAVEN'T TOLD YOU ABOUT STUFF IN THE PAST THAT CLEO KNEW ABOUT, BECAUSE I FELT LIKE I COULDN'T TRUST YOU! IT WASN'T A COINCIDENCE THAT YOU WERE ALWAYS THE LAST ONE TO FIND THINGS OUT" I yelled before getting up from the table and walking out of the café.

Before I did leave, I took one glance back at Rikki. Her mouth was open and she hadn't moved at all since I said those last words to her. She looked absolutely devastated. I had never seen her cry, but right then she looked on the brink of tears. I felt so bad, but instead of apologizing I just turned around and walked out of the café – guilty conscience and all.

Everything is messed up, straight from the heart
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart
Gotta pick myself up where do I start
'cause I can't turn to you when it all falls apart

Did you like? Remember 10 reviews if you want the next chapter! What did you think about the way the chapter was written? Easier to understand?

Have a good day
