Bella pov:
Rikki had come to my house as she was going to help me tell Will that I'm not going to be able to be a Part of the perfect summer he had planned.
Hey Bella, Rikki said.
Hey, I'm really freaking out, I said.
After you tell him you'll feel much better, Rikki said
Or even worse, I said.
Come on Will must be waiting, She said
We had told Will to meet us at the beach so we could tell it to him there.
We walked towards the beach seeing that Will was with Byron.
Hey guys, I said nervously.
Hey Bella, Will said.
So about our plans, I have to cancel, I said.
What why, Will said.
I had promised Rikki that I would help her with her Cafe, I said.
But, you could've told me this earlier, Will said
I know I forgot, I'm so sorry, I said.
It's fine, call me if you change your plans, Will said.
Hey Rikki, Is Emma going to be here this summer or is she going somewhere , Byron said.
She may go to a resort but if she doesn't she promised me that she will also help in the Cafe, Rikki said.
Oh, he said before he left.
They were disappointed, I said.
Well Now you have to help with The cafe, Rikki said.
What, I said
Come on Will will be looking around for you near the Cafe and if he doesn't see you he will feel like you are ditching him, and If I tell him that you were on a break when he was there he will ask Zane and Zane will tell him that you are not helping here and then he will think that you ditched him, oh God there were many wills in this sentence, She said.
Your explanation was really big, you really think that this can happen, I said.
Anything can happen, she saidEmma pov:
I had just told my parents that I didn't want to go, and they were really disappointed.
I was heading to the beach where I was going to meet Rikki and Bella who were going to tell Will that Bella was canceling their plans.
All of this happened all of a sudden that we couldn't even prepare for things.
I had reached the beach and see Rikki and Bella talking.
Bella was a bit disappointed while Rikki was happy, of course Rikki will be happy she doesn't have to cancel anything.
I walked towards them and said, How did it go.
Well he took it better than expected, we told him that Bella was going to help me at the Cafe, Rikki said.
How did he react, I said.
He was a bit disappointed but he understood it, so things didn't go out of hand, Bella said.
How did your parents take it, Rikki asked.
Well I told them that I was planning on studying maths so and revise alot of stuff so next year I will be prepared and understand things better and I also told them that I had promised Rikki that I would help her with her Cafe, I said.
So you both are gonna be helping me great, Rikki said.
What it was just an excuse, I said.
But Byron was here earlier and He asked if you were going to be here so I kinda told him that if you are going to be here, you will help me with the Cafe. Then if he finds out you aren't going to the resort, he will see if you are at the Cafe and if he doesn't see you there he will ask me and I will tell him that you were on a break but if he asks Zane and Zane tells him that you were never here in the first place he will think you ditched him, Rikki said.
You thought above time, I said.
She said that to me too, Bella said.
But she is right, anything can happen, I said.
We never know, Bella said.
Come on, let's go to Mako and see what the lovebirds are up to, Rikki said.
Umm, wouldn't it be a bit weird like they live there, and mako island is like their house, and we would be invading it, I said.
Come on Em, It's and island people are supposed to go there, Bella said.
And Cleo is still helping us with the mermaid stuff and they did say that we can come over whenever we want, the moon pool is a common mermaid hangout spot, Rikki said.
Fine, but I still feel like we are invading their personal space, I said.
Come on, this is our first swim, let's make it memorable, Rikki said running towards the water.
Come on Em, Bella said as she followed Rikkis lead.
I followed the girls and jumped into the water.
This was our first swim and it was amazing.
Surrounded by water being able to breathe in it, it was just magical.
We soon had reached the moon pool bit there was no sight of Cleo or Lewis.
We quickly got out of the water and called them.
Cleo, Lewis, We shouted.
We walked around the island and finally saw them.
Lewis was walking around looking at things while, Cleo was writing something.
Hey guys, Bella said.
What are you doing here, Lewis asked.
We were bored so we thought why not come here, I said.
Great, now that you're here we can Start training,Cleo said as she walked towards the moon pool.
Seriously,Bella said
You came here, Lewis said following Cleo
We All followed Cleo fill the Moon pools opening.
She then stopped for a moment and took out an rock with her power.
It turned out it was a secret Compartment.
She put a book in it,the book She was writing in earlier.
Cleo what is that, I asked.
It's a book, she said.
Why were you writing On it earlier, I asked.
cause I've written it, she said.

Yep,all of it, Cleo said.
What is it about, Bella asked.
It's called Secrets of Mako, it's about mermaids, Lewis said.
Cool can we read it, Rikki said.
Not in public but you can read it here, Cleo said.
Why here, Bella asked.
Cause this book can be seen in Public and then the island Will draw attention, and we don't want that do we, Cleo said.
No we don't, Lewis said.
Okay,we will read it here, I said.
