The New Family

I was just called downstairs for dinner and I am pretty nervous, I don't know why because I've delt with worse things than dinner, I guess it because a have a whole new set of family! Mrs.Bowman  looks like a nice person, she has dark blue eyes and a very long smile, she looks like a mom from a magazine as she kindly asked me to seat at the table. Mr.Bowman looks like  a business man, he never seems to smile and has a thick black mustache, his eyes are green and very rude, like if they had no happiness. Right in front of me is Michael, he has a  gorgeous smile that just lights the room and beautiful grayish eyes that look right  into me (ICAN'T THINK LIKE THIS!!!! HE  IS SORT OF MY BROTHER AND I AM FALLING FOR HIM). Next to Michael is Luke, he has beautiful hazelnut eyes and golden hair, but he doesn't look very happy. Next to me is Lexy, she has big sky blue eyes and a very perky smile, she looked right at me and said  "do you like mushrooms?", I thought it was a little awkward, but I said "not really, do you?", she didn't answer, and moments later the food came, it was almost all mushrooms!  I felt so bad for telling Lexy I didn't like mushrooms that I just ate them (it was gross). The rest of the dinner wasn't as awkward as I expected, I spent half of the time(or more, I don't remember) talking to Michael, and the rest of the time I was asked questions like where I was from or what was my favorite hobby, I got so nervous that I said I was from Kentucky and that I liked dancing (I actually hate it!), I couldn't tell them I was from Lavincope and that my hobbies where practicing magic, flying, or swimming in the pacific!

When the dinner ended we were allowed to go to our rooms, when I got there I started missing my swimming, so I got in the tub and watched my tail magically appear, it was blue with white at the bottom just as I last saw it. I was enjoying my tail when  someone knocked on my door "Hi Allison" it was Michael! I quickly got out and had to wait for my tail to dry "hold on a sec Michael"  I said feeling very embarrassed. As soon as my tail got dry, my legs appeared  I put on my robe and opened the door. "Hey Ally, is it ok if I call you that?" Michael said, as I blushed I said "sure Mike", I  hesitated and got all red and asked "can I call you that?". He turned around as he was leaving and said "it doesn't bother me". As he left I realized he only came to say hi, did he like me? I hope he did, god I was so red!
