Hey, guys! Sorry for updating late! I just didn't have the time to update earlier! And if any of you were wondering if Bella would ever appear, don't worry, she will. She just won't appear for a while. Anyway, thanks for the reviews and enjoy the story! I don't own H2O: Just Add Water.
I heard my alarm go off, signaling that it was time to get ready for school. I forced my eyes to open as I slowly arose from my bed. I scrambled to my closet and threw on some cargo shorts and a white t-shirt. Then I headed downstairs to grab some breakfast. Kyle was already sitting at the table munching on some cereal. "Why does school have to start early?" I asked tiredly as I rubbed my eyes.
"Because it sucks," Kyle said plainly.
I sighed then poured myself a bowl of cereal then slumped down into the chair next to my brother. Kaylie then showed up at the foot of the steps. "Hey guys," she said tiredly.
"Hey," we replied unenthusiastically.
My phone went off. I pulled it out of my pocket. It was a message from Lauren. I was supposed to walk with her and the gang to school, since it is only a couple of blocks away. I scarfed down the rest of my breakfast and grabbed my bag that was by the door. "See you at school guys," I said.
"Don't you want a ride?" Kyle asked. "I can drive you."
"I'm good," I replied. "I'm gonna walk with the gang."
"You might want to be careful," Kaylie suggested. "It's supposed to rain later."
I looked out the window and saw that the sky was blanketed with clouds. "Crap," I whispered. "Thanks for the heads up."
My sister nodded. I waved to my siblings and walked out of the front door. While strolling down my driveway, I saw everyone approaching my house. "Hey Will!" Cleo called after me.
I waved and made my way over to the group. "So who's ready for a fun filled day at school?" I said with fake excitement as I clapped my hands together.
Annoyed sighs and grunts arose from the group. "School is just a waste of time!" Rikki complained.
"Well, we're just gonna have to live with it," I shrugged. When we finally arrived at school, we dispersed to go to our classes. Lauren walked with me to my biology class, which unfortunately was my first class of the day. I just hoped that Carrie wouldn't bother me too much.
"It's supposed to rain later today," Lauren said.
"So I've heard," I replied. "Hopefully it doesn't happen while we're at school."
"Yeah," Lauren agreed. I suddenly saw a twinge of sadness in her eyes. It was almost like she was questioning herself.
"What's wrong?" I asked draping my arm over her shoulder.
"It's just that..." she hesitated." Do you think Carrie is prettier than me?"
I almost lost my breakfast. "Where did you get such a crazy idea?" I asked with a shocked expression.
"I always overhear her talking about how you and her always talk in biology. From what I am hearing, it seems that you like her more than me."
"Lauren, listen to me," I said as I grabbed onto her shoulders. "We both know that I despise Carrie; and I would never do anything to hurt you. Whatever comes out of her mouth is complete garbage."
"Really?" she asked.
"Really," I confirmed. We then approached my biology class. "Just remember what I told you," I said to Lauren as I gave her a long passionate kiss to prove my point. She just smiled with a dreamy look in her eyes. She then turned around and made her way to her own class. I grinned and walked into my biology room. Once I sat down, I could already feel Carrie's eyes on me. "Not today Carrie," I said dismissively.
"Come on Will!" she whined. "We would look so good together!"
I turned to face Carrie. "Carrie, listen to me. I have a girlfriend who I don't plan on leaving any time soon. So I suggest that you find another guy to drool over because I'm not on the market."
"You'll see it my way someday," Carrie said.
"Yeah sure, when pigs fly," I said sarcastically.
"Okay class," my teacher, Mrs. Heine, began. "Today we will be conducting an experiment to see how different substances react to water.
Great. I thought. Mrs. Heine then started to pick our lab partners. Luckily, I wasn't paired with Carrie. I was paired with a guy named John who I became friends with at the start of the school year.
"Okay class, you may begin your experiments," Mrs. Heine said. John then began to carefully pour water into a beaker. I was so tensed up that I thought that I would become a statue. Just as he was pouring the last bit, Carrie "accidentally" bumped into him, causing the water to splash all over me.
Just my luck, I thought as I sprinted out of the room and into the bathroom next door. As I locked myself in a stall, my tail formed. I sighed heavily and crossed my arms. I then held my hand out and clenched it together. Within seconds, I was completely dry. Not long after my legs came back, John came into the bathroom.
"Are you okay Will?" he asked with concern.
"Yeah, I'm fine," I replied. I'll be out in a minute. After I heard him leave the bathroom, I stayed still for the next few minutes to simulate the drying of my clothes. I didn't want people asking how I dried my clothes so fast. After I was sure that I was in the bathroom long enough, I casually strolled back into the classroom.
"Is everything okay, Will?" Mrs. Heine asked quizzically.
"Yeah, everything's good," I replied with a nod. I then made my way back to my lab desk. I knew that everyone had their eyes on me. Before I continued on my experiment with John, I turned towards Carrie. "What was that for?"
"What?" she asked innocently while batting her eyelashes.
"I know you bumped into John on purpose."
"So?" she shrugged. It's not like a little water can hurt anyone."
"You'd be surprised," I mumbled under my breath. I then turned back to work on the experiment. If there were any more mishaps, then it was going to be a long day.
The bell rang signaling that the final class of the day was over. Thankfully, I didn't have to run to the bathroom any more times during the day. Although I do think I actually did well on my geometry test. Guess that last minute studying during lunch helped me out. Rikki sits right behind me in geometry and guess what she was doing the whole time? She kept bugging me for the answers! Sometimes, I just don't know what to do with that girl. I made my way to the courtyard because that was where we were all gonna meet up. Minutes later, I saw the girls walking towards me with Lewis not far behind. "Hey Will!" Lewis called.
"Hey guys," I replied. I glanced towards Rikki. "So Rikki," I began. "We're trying to cheat off friends are we?"
"Hey!" Rikki shot back at me. "It was a last resort!"
"Yeah, yeah," I waved her off.
"Will, I hear you got splashed with water today," Emma said. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm totally fine," I reassured. "I made it to the bathroom on time. I'm just lucky that..." I trailed off. My eyes started to get blurry. I fell to my knees and closed my eyes. Suddenly, I started to see images of the full moon and Mako Island appear in my head. I also saw a glimpse of a giant storm happening around Mako. Did this have to do with the full moon coming up? Was I going to get moonstruck? Did I see what was going to happen? The last assumption seemed unrealistic to me. It's impossible to see into the future. My vision finally started to clear. I shook my head and stood up.
"Oh my god Will!" Lauren shrieked. "Are you okay?"
"Ye...yeah," I replied shakily. "Don't know where that came from." I didn't want the gang to worry about me. They already had to worry about the full moon itself.
"Are you sure?" Cleo asked.
"Positive," I reassured. Everyone gave me an unsure look, but they brushed it off.
"We'll, let's get going," Lewis said. We all nodded and began to walk back to our homes.
I waved to the gang and continued towards my house. Once I got to the doorstep, I unlocked the door and walked inside. When I entered the kitchen, I saw Kyle watching T.V. "Hey," I said.
"Hey," he replied.
"You know," I began. "I kinda wished I was able to drive so I can get home early like you."
"Won't be long till you get your license," Kyle said. "You can stick it out till then."
I nodded and made my way upstairs. I then went into my room and closed the door. I flopped onto my bed and rubbed my temples. What happened earlier was really starting to bug me. Did I really see what was going to happen on the full moon? Well, one thing's for sure, I need to be fully prepared for the full moon. If not, then all hell would break loose.
I'll be ready, I thought.
What's with the vision that Will had? Don't worry, you'll find out in the next chapter because the next chapter is the barbecue! Thanks for reading and I will update as soon as I can!
