I couldn't find a song for the chapter :(
I slowly opened my eyes, to only be blinded by a bright light.
I sat up, to see I was on the beach.
Crowds of family's were pilling onto the beach taking good use of this warm sunny day.
How the hell did I get here, what happened last night?
I turned to see Cleo Emma and Rikki still asleep.
I reached out and shook Rikki's arm.
"Rikki, wake up" I said
She opened her eyes, and sat up
"what are we doing here?" she asked.
"I don't know" I said looking up to the tumbling waves.
"Cleo, Emma wake up" Rikki said kicking their legs.
"what happened last night?" Cleo asked rubbing her eyes.
" I don't know, but Lewis might, lets go" I said standing and brushing the sand of my shorts.
We all headed up to the board walk and towards Emma's.
We were halfway there, we decided to cut across the oval.
"I have the worst headache" Rikki said rubbing her head.
We got up onto the road when I noticed Emma wasn't with us.
"Em?" I called turning around
"yeah hang on my shoelace is untied" she said bending down to do it back up
She came back up and was just about to take a step forward when water sprayed out from the ground
"Ail!" Emma yelled,
Cleo was quick to turn of the sprinkler.
I counted down the seconds before her tail would appear.
1…2…3…4…5
I threw up my hand and used my water power to pull all the water of her, id practised this heaps since I had become a mermaid.
I managed to get all the water of her and her clothes.
Until it was all in one giant ball.
"that was close" said Emma walking up towards us.
"good thing I know how to do this" I said throwing the water ball back onto the grass.
We all ran back to Emma's.
"Lewis you here?" I called out
"what?! I'm awake!" Lewis yelled for the lounge room, then there was a thump
"Lewis?" Cleo yelled running to the lounge room.
Cleo started giggling
"what's funny?" Rikki asked as we walked forward.
When we turned the corner we saw what was funny, Lewis had been sleeping on the couch and was now on the floor tangled in blankets.
Me and Rikki couldn't contain ourselves we bursted out laughing.
Emma just shook her head at us and sat down on the couch.
I headed to the kitchen in much need of food.
"so what happened last night?" Rikki asked
"well our dear friend Aleeya here forgot to put cardboard on the windows in Emma's bathroom, and I bet you guys can guess the rest"
I was shocked I was sure I had put cardboard on that window.
"but I did cover it Lewis, I'm sure of it" I said puzzled
"well it wasn't when you called us all upstairs for some emergency and then Rikki Emma and Cleo got moon struck then you all raced out back and jumped into the water"
" I.. I thought I covered it" I said walking over to sit on the couch next to Emma.
"its okay Ali, we forget things sometime's it over and done with now" Emma said giving me a hug
Emma was always the more proper of the group and you didn't often see this side of her, sure she was caring but usually she would rant and rave about something like this. Maybe she felt she owed me from saving her tail this morning on the oval.
"so was that all you saw last night Lewis?" Cleo asked
"pretty much I looked for you guys but I couldn't find you so I came home" Lewis said looking at us all
"did you guys stay at mako all night?" he asked
"no we woke up on the beach" Rikki said standing up
"where you going?" I asked
"I gotta go find Zane" she was already at the front door when I said
"what for?" but she Just continued to walk out the door.
"okay" emma said confused
"I need food or I think I might die" I said as my tummy rumbled.
"well, me and Lewis will go to the juice net with you" Cleo said
"shoot I have a shift this morning" emma said jumping up and looking at her watch
"that I'm 3 minuets late for! Ash will be wondering where I am!" emma said running upstairs to get her things
" we'll meet you there" I yelled out
I was now sitting alone at the counter sipping on my cranberry booster, Lewis had surprised Cleo with a picnic at mako so now I was alone.
my phone buzzed inside my pocket.
I pulled out my phone to see that my mum was calling
"hey mum, what's up?" I asked
"well I have some bad news" she said I hint of worry in her voice
All thoughts of bad things went through my head.
Has someone in our family died?, Is my brother Sam okay?, does mum have to go back to the CIA in Washington?
"what is it?" I asked slowly fearing the worst
"why don't you come home and we can talk about it" mum said
"okay" I said then hung up
"you okay Aleeya?" ash asked walking past
"me? Um yeah, I gotta go" I said sliding of the stool.
