Chapter 4

Weilan woke up to an empty bed, facing the edge of the bed and fell with a thump "Ah!" She got up and found the house was empty besides her and the cat, she was frustrated and relieved at the same time, she dressed she had work giving boxing classes, she was about to make breakfast when Ondina burst through the door "I bought breakfast from the Cafe!" She brought in three doggie bags, Weilan had no idea what was in the bags but it smelled good.

They ate in silence and avoided making eye contact, the cat,. Ariel,, she was Poseidon's kitten, normally avoided Ondina, she jumped onto the table facing Ondina and meowed loudly, turned around and jumped into Weilans lap and started purring.

"So, the cat has spoken" Weilan said

"I guess"

"Look, what happened yester-"

"What happened yesterday was part of the dare, nothing more." Ondina snapped, she didn't want to discuss this, didn't want to remember it. She wanted to forget it, but she couldn't, it kept replaying in her head like a scratched record.

"Oh, yeah, of course." Weilan flinched, she had known that but part of her hoped that... It didn't matter what she hoped, it was for the dare. That was that.

"I'm gonna go to work, thanks for the breakfast." She said putting the cat on the ground, getting up slowly. She got her things and walked out the door, her only thought that she was frustrated, hurt, and furious.

Ondina sat at the table in silence, Ariel staring up at her, Ondina stood and and let out a scream of anger, this was not what she had agreed to. She got ready and went to her job as a swim coach, she needed to get away from this house, from this whole situation.


The sound of punches echoed through the empty gym, gronts and some panting, it was two hours after class had ended, Weilan had a face of fury and concentration, sweat dripping down the side of her face. She kept punching, each one harder than the last, and then, boom! The bag fell to the ground, she sighed, panting and put it back on, deciding that it was a sign to stop. She sat down on a stool that nearby and took off the bandages from her hands. She sat there for a few seconds, panting.

She got up and went to the shower, she was washing out her hair when the memory of what had happened the night before flooded in, the dancing, the kiss, the warm feeling. She stayed under the shower head, staring at her feet with her eyes shut.


Ondina sat on the bench of a school pool, hat on, frustrated, she ran her hands through her hair and got up abruptly, she went to the Cafe and ordered her usual smoothy, she sat outside and sipped while staring out into the ocean. Her face twisted into a bitter, frustrated look, she couldn't stop imagining it, the stupid taste of Weilans lips, the stupid warm feeling of dancing, the terrible memory of Weilans fa-

"Hey, couldn't help notice that you look like a real sourpuss." Cam said, plopping down into the chair in front of her. "Didn't get hot and steamy after the date huh?" Ondina kicked him "Ow!"

"Do you have any reason to be here besides making me furious? Because of not you can fuck off" Ondina said.

"No! I do, I wanted to see how you were, you and Weilan seemed.. Off after dancing, I wanted to see how you were holding up, I'm not a complete asshole."

Ondina looked at him suspiciously, "I'm fine."

"Right, that's why you're sucking the energy out of the whole deck more than usual and why people can feel your anger from a while away. C'mon tell me, the Camsters always here if you need help."

Ondina sighed and groaned "fine. I can't stop thinking about that stupid kiss, I- it keeps going off in my head, I hate it! And when Weilan wanted to talk about it I snapped, I scared her off. I just can't stop thinking about it, and I get queasy and I feel all glowy. I hate it. Why the hell do I feel like this? This disgusting!"

"I hate to break it to you, but you have feelings for Weilan, romantic feelings, you like her."

"Wh-what? No, that's- that's just stupid I- I would never I mean- she's barely a friend we- I- she isn't even my type what an absurd accusation."

Cam stared, one eyebrow up and a grin that said yeah right.

"Ok, maybe, I have small feelings for her but, I doubt she feels the same! Nothing's going to come out of this. This is a dare, nothing more. We last the week, we divorce and pretend that this never happened." She said, looking down a bit with a face of sadness and anger.

"You two are idiots, and that's coming from me! The biggest idiot! Look I don't have experience with" He gestured generally "this but I think you should talk it out, at least that's what carly would say. Well I am going to eat a hamburger, so I'll catch you later lover girl" A kick ensued after this line. Ondina stared down at her half empty drink, thinking about what she should do. An idea sparked, she didn't like it, but it seemed like the only solution.

She rushed to the counter of the Cafe "Carly, I need your and David's help. It has to do with the dare." Carly winced "Well fine, but you're gonna have help out and pay for anything you use that isn't part of the Cafe."


Weilan got home, still wet from the shower, she found the household empty with a note on the table:

Change into something nice and go to the Cafe, I mean if you want to, I don't care or anything. ~Ondina

She raised an eyebrow, and went to her closet to change. She pulled out a flower printed dress, short, sleeveless and reaching up to her neck with a small tear shaped opening above her neck. She wore sandal flats and hanging earrings with silver on them. She wondered what the hell she was getting herself into, she decided to put on eyeliner, following her slated eye, accentuating it. She took a small purse and walked towards the Cafe, it was turning dark, sunset, she stopped in front of it and stood there for a while. The Cafe seemed to glow, considering it was turning to night outside. There was soft music coming from it, enchanting, a song being sung by Carly and Sirena.

Weilan walked in, the Cafe was completely empty besides the band, the table and chairs stacked, and in the middle, Ondina, standing with a lily and bright red face.

"I now things have been awkward since yesterday, and I've been rude, and we've both been stupid. So um, a, I wanted to throw you a small 'nothing is awkward' type thing, whatever. I don't know it's stupid. Here". Ondina said placing the flower in front of her. Weilan walked towards her and grabbed the lily "You're really stupid." Was said as Ondina was pulled into a hug. Ondina held on and Weilan burried her face in Ondinas neck.

"So we're gonna dance, right?"

"W-what?"

"I went through a lot of trouble setting this up"

"Psh so?"

"C'mon"

"Fine."
