Bambina
Around dawn, I said goodbye to Aiden before I headed out to the water. At first he kept telling me I could stay at the house so that we could play games and hang out.
Despite the fact that I'm a mermaid...
As much as I wanted to spend my time with him, I think that he needs to spend some time with Darcy.
He likes her so he needs to tell her. Otherwise, he'll be, as Kelsie would say, friend zoned. You know, like me.
So, after a few minutes of trying to convince Aiden to hang out with Darcy today instead of me, he finally sighed in frustration, but agreed nonetheless. I mean, I doesn't tell him to confess his feelings or anything because then he'd know I know he likes her. No, I just told him, 'Don't be stupid and make decisions you'll regret later!' Meaning, 'Tell her how you feel before you lose your chance!'
When I got in the water, my first instinct was to find Aqua and Aquarius to tell them about my trip to see my mom. Then I remembered we aren't talking anymore. I hate that I miss them. Because when the curse is broken, how will I ever see them again? I mean, I already discovered I can't swim without my tail.
And even though I wanted to find them, they knew I was coming back today, they know where I like to swim around.
They never came looking for me and vice versa.
So, later on, around dusk, I make my way back to land. It wasn't exactly time to get out of the water but, it wasn't far away. I'd say about another ten minutes. I see Aiden talking to Darcy on the back porch. Only, she wasn't looking at Aiden. She was looking at me.
The weird part, is that she didn't look surprised or shocked to see a mermaid floating around in front of her friends house. No, instead, she gave me a knowing smirk. Like she knew something that I didn't.
...
Maybe she isn't looking at me.. I mean, there's no way she would know anything about me. And, surely, she'd be pretty shocked to see a mermaid. I know if the roles were reversed, I'd be pretty shook.
After a few minutes, it was getting closer to when I needed to get out of the water. I was starting to think it was going to be like that one time when he left me out here naked for an hour before she finally left.
I really need to get some clothes to put nearby just in case. I can't really run around in the nude...
She then leans over and gives him a kiss on the cheek before waving and saying what I suspect is her goodbye because then she leaves without say anything else.
I watch as Aiden walks back into his house for a few minutes before coming back with a towel. I walk out of the water a minute later and walk up to him, thanking him for the towel as I give him a smile.
As we walk in the house, I turn toward him. He must have been looking down because when I stopped, he runs straight into me, grabbing my waist to steady himself.
"You okay?" I chuckle as his face turns a light shade of pink.
He clears his throat before nodding at me.
"Yeah, I'm good. Why'd you stop?" He asks with a questioning raise of his left eyebrow.
"Well, I, um, think that Darcy saw me in the water.." I voice my concerns.
He shakes his head with a soft chuckle. "Bambi, I think you may be imagining things. If she would've saw you, she would've freaked out. Or, at least said something to me."
I nod although I didn't believe that one bit. I know what I saw. I just feel like she knows something..
Shaking the thought away, I turn back around and run up the stairs to get ready. I have to meet Cameron at the beach soon and I'd like to look nice. So, I pick up my phone and dialed Kelsie, who said she'd be here in ten minutes to help. Perfect, I can take a shower while I wait for her.
Aiden
I wasn't happy. Actually, I was far from it. I know that I said I'd help Bambina find love but watching her come down the stairs, her long blonde hair straightened and her makeup fixed up as if she were headed to prom, was eating at me. She was all dressed up, for him, wearing a pair of black high waisted skinny jeans with a yellow frilly off the shoulder blouse.
And, guess what? It was killing me slowly on the inside as I watched her leave the house to head out to meet him at the beach.
I admit it. I'm jealous. Even though I keep telling myself it's for the best. All I can come back with is, 'but, why can't I be happy?' and 'why does it have to be for the best? Just because my parents didn't make it, doesn't mean I'll have the same fate with Bambina.'
So, it's decided, instead of helping her fall in love with Cameron, I'm going to make her fall in love with me.
Because, I more than like Bambina. I wouldn't say love but it's gotta be close to it. Because the thought of her being with Cameron makes my stomach turn because it isn't me she's with. Maybe she doesn't like me now, but she will.
