A/N: Hey guys! Thank you so much for all the reviews! :) Okay, so I'm sorry it took so long for me to update, and I'm sorry it's so short. I really promise you I will try, try, TRY on the next one to make it long and hopefully good. xxHeartBrokenxx
Rikki's POV
My head popped up from under the water. I was at Mako Island, in the moon pool. Our, as in Me, Emma, and Cleo's place. I leaned against the rock edge of the circular pool, and laid my head on my arms. New York? Really?
How would tell the girls? How would I tell Zane? I looked around the moon pool. Man was I going to miss this place. I hoped I wouldn't have to be gone a long time.
But, the real thing that was nagging me in the back of my head was the question, what would happen between Alex and Zane while I was gone? It wasn't that I didn't trust Zane…it was just, Alex was really pretty, and really flirty.
I walked to Juicenet somewhat hesitantly the next morning. Once I reached my destination, I stood outside and stared out at the water. "Guess who," someone said, putting their hands over my eyes.
I laughed and turned around. "Hey, Zane."
"No fair," he said, smiling. "You were supposed to guess!"
I smiled as he kissed me. "Hey," I said. "sit down. We need to talk."
We sat down at a table next to us and he stared at me questioningly. "What's up?"
I fidgeted uncomfortably, not meeting his eyes.
"Well…" I said nervously. "Um, I have to go to New York tomorrow."
"What!" Zane said, sliding to the edge of his seat.
"My dad says I have to," I said sadly, still refusing to meet his gaze.
"How long will you be gone?" he asked, taking my hand.
"I don't know," I said, shaking my head. "However long I need to be, I guess."
