STORYWRITER'S NOTE:
Heeeyyy everyone. This chapter is just a leading up to the actual plot of the story, so it's short. I'm going to end this soon because I don't unneccisarily drag it out. But when I do, do you want me to make a sequel? I sort of have an idea for it but I'm not sure anyfish will read it besides my three friends who make me update for their own enjoyment.

Anyway I hope you all enjoy! I love you!

“Will you ofishially be mine?”

“No, Harry.”

His face fell like when the seagulls come and swoop unsuspecting fish up for food. A little part of me died at the sight of his face.

“W-why?”

“Harry,” I said softly.

“Yeah I know that stupid ‘different species’ shit.”

I just stared. He stared back at me. His face contorted from sad to angry.

“You know on land girls practically throw themselves at me. They wouldn’t care if I had a tail or not,” he sputtered out.

My head dropped to look at my scales. I hated when anyfish yelled at me. He continued yelling at me. It seemed to go on forever. I lifted my head up when in the middle of him going on aboat the girls who surround him whenever he goes anywhere.

Arabella was in the corner of my sand crusted room looking horrified. She held both Usealys and Click Click in her hands. They even looked scared at Harry’s sudden behavior. They were holding each other’s claws. All the grapes were dropped to the sand wood floors.

My dark sand colored eyes met Harry’s seaweed green ones. If we had been in the atmosphere I would’ve been crying. In water your face just contorts to one of a crying face, but you can’t see the actual tears. His face softens at the sight of my face.

“Waverly I-“ I cut him off.

“No no I need to go.”

“Wait no! Waverly!”

I was already swimming out of my room when I felt a firm hand grasp my wrist. The hand spun me towards them. I was face to face with Harry.

“I’m sorry.”

I just shook my head and loosened from his grip. He was reaching out to me again but I swam out of his reach. I quickly swam out of my room leaving Harry and Arabella there.

When I got out of my sand castle I paused and just breathed in the salt water. I just needed some time to myself.

“Waverly?” I hear Arabella call out.

I turned and she was swimming towards me. She opened her arms and pulled me in for a hug. She held me tight while I started sucking the water in and out of my mouth panickingly.

“What do I do, Arabella?”

She combed her fingers through my long, brown, wavy, hair. “Shhh.”

We stayed there for a couple minutes before I was almost okay again.

“Arabella, what should I do?” I asked again.

“I think you should say yes to Harry.”

“Why do you think that?”

“Merman like that just don’t swim out of nowhere.”

“He’s not a merman. He’s not staying here for long.”

“So. Might as well have fun while he’s here.”

I thought about what she said. But what about when he heals? He would go and I would stay here. We would never see each other again. I might as well just save myself the pain.

“No Arabella I don’t think so.”

“You are being such a barnacle.”

“And you are being a beach,” and with that I swam away. I just needed time to myshellf.

I swam aimlessly around the village. Sitting under coral reefs and large stocks of seaweed I thought about what previous events occurred. I also thought about the new Seatoria Secret Clam bras that were coming out soon.

While I was sitting and pondering aboat my thoughts my friend Sealena approached me. “OH MY FISH IS THAT YOU WAVERLY?” I hadn’t seen her in forever.

“IS THAT YOU SEALENA?!” I scream back with equal loud volume. We had a very special relationship. We just partied with each other and got into trouble.

She pulled me in for a warm hug. Her hair had gotten longer and blonder.

“Where have you been? I haven’t seen you anywave!”

“Oh I’ve just busy. You?”

“You can’t tell anyfish, but I was out exploring with Seasica,” she fishpered. “We’re going out again in just a minute. Do you want to come along?”

“Do I ever!”

She smiled widely and pulled me towards her meeting place with Seasica.

++++++++++++++++++++++

The three of us were out swimming in the sea we weren’t allowed in. I didn’t notice we were in the territory where Harry’s boat was in.

We were swimming along and laughing at some fishilarious joke Seasica had made when I was roughly pulled down into a reef by Sealena.

“HEY WHAT THE DE-“ She clamped her hand over my mouth.

I looked up and saw divers swimming around. I knew what they were looking for.

Harry.
