Wills POV
I lay down on the granulated sand and thought about what happened. Big mistake. As soon as I thought about what happened I thought about the consequences of my actions. How could I? She was one of my girlfriends best friends and she had just broken up with one of my best friends. I seem to have thought the word friends a lot in those sentences when the chances are that I no longer had any. I was just their and so I became the rebound guy. She didn't feel for me at all. I knew that even though she kissed me. It was amazing but it wasn't real. It was done through sympathy not love. The problem was all that I wanted to feel at this time was guilt and remorse but I couldn't I also felt a longing to carry on right now despite my conscious telling me otherwise. For me it really was a wonderful encounter.
As I moved my head the inches it required to see her stunning face I noticed she was stirring . I really hated myself for admitting it but I had never been like this with Bella and that thought scared me I had spent over seven years with someone and the time I cheated I felt more for Cleo immediately. Cleo's eyes flickered open and she looked at me emotionless for a second.
"OH MY GOD!" She screamed "OH MY GOD" she was now chanting 'it really happened' over and over. I was amused for a second with the thought of the scream causing an earthquake like in the cartoons I used to watch when I was little. Then reality kicked in and it took a lot not to scream out myself.
" how could we have done this? Bella will never speak to me again and the whole world will hate me" she started to cry and I wondered for a second how she still had tears in her after yesterday. I leant over to comfort her but she pushed my hand away. I understood that it could never happen again. But I still wanted it to.
As I tried to comfort her and she pushed me away even further I heard a thud. Someone was coming up to the moon pool. Cleo dived in the water but I hung back to smooth over the sand without making a sound then into dived in. Once I was out of sight I turned to see who was in the moon pool. When I saw who it was I immediately thought how lucky it was we got out without him seeing us Lewis would have gone mental... He was obviously looking for Cleo and I saw him sit and begin to draw pictures in the sand. He looked utterly depressed and this just added to my nearly unbearable guilt.
Cleo who was hovering in the water beside me gestured to go up to the surface. I complied following her slowly. As we approached the surface I noticed little things about Cleo' s tail. As she was taller than Bella it was a bit longer than hers and the scales on the end of it were glimmering silver. In my opinion it was nicer than Bella's and again I even felt bad admitting this.
At the surface I just looked at Cleo willing her to speak and she did.
" Will we can't tell anyone about this do you understand?" I nodded " I mean It will"
"Ok I get it Cleo, never happened" Cleo breathed a sigh of relief "thank you will you don't know how much it means to me that this stays a secret" I nodded again as she sped off leaving me to swim the long way home. As I pulled up on the beach I planned to go straight to mine and Bella's place and get changed. As I walked their I got a lot of funny looks being soaking wet and covered in sand. Luckily Bella wasn't in but I presumed that she would be any minuet now as her work would be finishing soon. I covered up my full day disappearance by making a mess and getting out loads of movies. As far as Bella was concerned I had been having a full day movie marathon! Sure enough within five minuets Bella's voice rang out.
" Hi honey I'm home" Bella called out
" Hi Bella I'm just watching another movie" I lied easily
" have you even left the sofa all day?" Bella questioned amused
"What's the point I have everything I need here, food beer and now you" I grinned but felt awful inside. Bella laughed,
"well I think you need some exercise now. How about upstairs?" She kissed me and I went along with it but the guilt was really killing me.
