I poured 2 juices and a basket of crisps and put them on a tray and took them over to the table where Lewis and Charlotte were sitting. I put it down on the table. "Aw, look at you 2 and Charlotte I swear I am so sorry about when you found out about me and Rikki sneaking into your house, she was sure you were up to something and well you weren't so here have these on the house." I said trying to look all happy and nice. She just smiled and so did Lewis I backed away seeing if she would drink it without the straw. She didn't. Just then Ash walked in and my legs turned to jelly. I laughed and smiled at him and Rikki and Cleo walked off. He approached me. "Hey gorgeous" He laughed. We hugged then we kissed. "When do you get off work? He asked playing with my hair and I swear Rikki and Cleo were watching. "In about" Rikki interrupted. "She gets off now, go on have fun." Rikki laughed. I went and got my bag and Charlotte was standing by my locker. "You know I'm a mermaid that's why you didn't put me a straw." She said very sternly. There was no point lying because I knew that if I made up a lie I would keep stuttering. "But how, it isn't possible I thought you'd lost all your powers?" I asked. "Well when there are more than one sea caves then it is possible, I went up to Ireland and there was one there." She said. I thought for a moment. Bella had lived in Ireland. "I don't suppose this has something to do with that over mermaid, you know Bella?" I said feeling clever. She looked shocked. "And how the hell do you know about her?" She said looking angry. "She told me herself she was a mermaid." I said grabbing my bag and going to the door. "Wait" Charlotte said. "No, you going to freeze the door shut?" I said actually thinking she would. "I cant, all I have is a tail and no powers, you can build the powers up though using special magic and well I was wandering if you could help me?" Charlotte said smiling. I got my bottle of water and I chucked it over her and turned the heating down really low. "Good luck" I said laughing and walking out.
"Let whoever you want into the staff room, I don't care." I said letting Rikki know what I was on about, I hugged Ash and we went. We went for a walk along the cliff front and the views were amazing. Then Ash suddenly stopped walking and stood in front of me holding my hips. That moment was special. "Emma, I don't want you to ever think that I am freaked out by all the mermaid thing because I'm not, I'm a good listener" He laughed. "Yeah I might not understand like Rikki and Cleo but I am here for you no matter what! If you ever want to talk about anything, I will always be here for you." I smiled. We kissed and that moment on the cliff front was special, I don't think my life had ever had a meaning before I met Ash.
