Creatures Of Myth (JM Book 1) (A Jupiterville Book)

(Gale) (Unedited)

"I forgive you."

I stare at Nessie. She's officially my stalker now. I'm at the mall, clothes shopping with twenty bucks Trip gave me. I think it was originally someone else's money because Trip never has money. Trip himself is in the restroom.

"Are you stalking me?"

"For lying about being normal silly."

I think she was talking about the whole forgiveness thing, but I wasn't really sure.

"Excuse me?"

She's weirding me out. And when did I ever say I was normal? I can't believe she's following me around. Did she stick a tracker on me? I don't think so but I'm not sure. Are trackers legal? I know police use police dogs but...

"I don't care that you're not normal. I love you and I will always love you."

She tried to kiss me again. This time I did the smart thing. I put my hand on her face and pushed her away.

"That's great. Please go away."

She pushes my hand away.

"Don't be silly. Wait. Don't you love me?!"

She screeches. I put my hands up to protect my face. I'm afraid she will slap. It's how girls cope with anger. She wails and tears run down her face. Fearful, I yell at her.

"What is wrong with you! I don't even know you! You're just stalking me! Leave me alone!"

People stare as I run off.

Trip looks up as I enter the restroom. Luckily for me it's not totally embaressing because he's just watching his hands. Unfortunately there are other males in here, not washing their hands. I feel awkward.

Trip looks at me and curses.

"I can't take you anywhere. What happened?"

"Nessie's stalking me."

"That sounds bad. Who's Nessie?"

I stare at him.

"Did you miss my crisis? Nessie's the weird beach girl, who ran away screaming when she saw the jellyfish on the beach."

Hopwfully Trip understands that there was no jellyfish. But does he understand what I'm saying? Our conversation has become the main topic of intrest in the bathroom. Males are staring. Trip gets the idea.

"Oh her. I really hate her."

There's a knocking on the door.

"Gale! I know you're in there! We need to talk!"

I gesture frantically at Trip. He gestures in the direction of the door. I try to make her leave.

"No we don't! Stop stalking me!"

Trip slaps himself on the forehead. I don't think that's what he wanted me to do.

"Gale I don't know your last name! Get out here!"

"No!"

"Then I'm coming in!"

She starts to slowly open the door. I scream. Trip calmly walks over and leans againist the door, thus shutting it. I sigh with relief.

"Open the door this instant!" She screeches again. I panic.

"Trip she's gonna get in! What are we gonna do when she gets in!"

He stares at me.

"Gale. I'm a teenage. She is teenage boy stalker. I'm clearly stronger."

"Are you sure? I heard females were the deadlier of the genders."

"Yes I'm sure!"

"I heard that!" She screams. I scream again at the sound of her voice.

"Look I know you're probably dating someone, but let me assure you that I'm a better person than whatever dumb blonde girl you're dating."

Trip repeated everything she just said under his breath angrily. I think she should run for the hills. After all she did just offend my magic boyfriend.

"Can I please kill her?" He mouths to me.

"Yes please!" I say happily. He nods in return. I shudder as I feel the magic he releases on her. About two seconds she gets hauled away by security who say not only is she blocking the entrance to a restroom, she's disturbing the peace.

It's blissfully quiet after that. However peace lasts for maybe two seconds.

My sister waltzes herself into the boy's bathroom.

"Hi Gale!" My sister exclaims in Mer. Trip curses again. I feel proud that I managed to teach him hi, bye, and my name in Mer. Then again he taught me all of English so...

"Is this another one of your girlfriends? If it is I'm gonna blast first and ask questions never."

"Octavia's my sister who really shouldn't be in the boy bathroom."

She smiled and waved innocently.

"Okay then." Trip said, literally shoving my sister out the door, and putting his weight against it again.

"What do we do now?"

I thought for moment. I'm wasn't sure what to do here. Paris usually gives me all my advice on girls.

The door opened slightly and shut again as Octavia pushed on one side and Trip pushed on the other.

Everyone in the bathroom was staring in amusement. I'm pretty sure this gonna be all over social media soon.

I pushed Trip aside from the door. Octavia stepped in. I quickly told her in Mer.

"You can't be in here. This is for boys. It's where they go to poop."

She nodded. And left.

"Well, whatever you said worked."

Trip commented the obvious. I turned to the males in the bathroom.

"Sorry. My sister just came from Kilovania. They don't have public restroom there. I don't know what Nessie's excuse was."

I exited the bathroom.

"How did you find me?" I asked in Mer.

"Mom said you were on the surface world. Then I was looking for you here when I heard you yelling at the girl who wanted into the boy's room."

Oh. That's why people are staring. Apparently everyone heard the bathroom thing. Oops.

Trip said calmly.

"I have no clue what the heck is happening right now."

My sister ignored him.

"I came to visit because your big brother and I haven't seen you in forever."

She bounced over and hugged me. I felt something crack. I doubled over in pain as soon as she let.

"Maybe we should be not here."

Trip nodded.

"I agree." He said. Then we were gone.
