Cleo and Rikki came running down and stood next to me either side. "Lewis, Cleo, Rikki, Emma" She said. "Well isn't this nice." She laughed and Lewis just smiled at her. "No one wants you here, Charlotte." Rikki said in a stern voice. "Oh really? Lewis called me, said he was missing me." She said looking directly at Cleo. I could see the hurt in her eyes, she ran off into the girls bathroom. "Listen, Charlotte me, Rikki and Cleo have what you can't have. And that is a tail, remember we beat you. We took that choice away from and my god I am so glad we did" I said pushing past her to chase Cleo and Rikki came with me.
The day was horrible. Charlotte was in every single class with me, all day she cuddled with Lewis, I couldn't see why Lewis was like that, just yesterday he was with Cleo, together as a couple and now he was just cuddling Charlotte without telling Cleo he wanted to break up. There must have been something wrong. Perhaps he was blackmailing her. That was it. He was blackmailing her. When I got home I went straight to my bedroom and rang Lewis. No reply so I rang Cleo and again no reply. I didn't bother calling Rikki because I knew she would be on her way to go and confront Charlotte and Lewis.
I went downstairs to get a drink and the doorbell rang so I opened the door. I thought I needed to get rid of charlotte. I grabbed a juice, put a straw in it and I went and sat down on the sofa. I decided a walk around the marina would be a good idea. I went out of the house and I walked along the marina where all the boats were docked up. I was looking for Lewis' when I saw them packing some things onto his boat. "Well hey Emma!" She said "Want to come for a ride with us?" She asked sarcastically. "Oh wait, you can't because you're a mermaid and so you cant and nor can Cleo." She laughed sitting down on the boat seat. "Lewis, I need to talk to you, in private." I asked him. He looked at Charlotte and I walked away from the boat a bit and he came walking to me. "Is she blackmailing you?" I said really quietly so she couldn't hear. "No, why- yeah, yeah she is. She's a mermaid again Emma she wont tell me how but she's shown me." I was positive my face went white. "What?!" I shouted in my quietist whisper. " Keep your voice down, I love Cleo I would never do anything to hurt her but Charlotte said she'd expose you guys if I didn't get back with her, she's planning on stealing your necklaces, it would be better if you guys didn't wear them," He said. " Go on, get back on your boat she's gonna get suspicious call me if you can" I said smiling at him. He walked back to Charlotte and hugged her, she gave me a look in disgust. The boat drove off and I saw Charlotte dive into the water. I was gonna expose her, and I would do it in style.
