Two Mermaids and One Direction

Chapter IX

Chapter by lainey BTW

Cassie's POV

I had called Brittany and Emily, after Niall gave me her number, to come get ready for there dates. We really liked Emily! She was really fun and down to earth! Thanks to me, they both looked perfect for their dates.

Emily was wearing short medium-wash denim shorts and a red button up blouse with a black leather jacket with knee high, red converse. Her makeup was simple: blush, bronzer, mascara, eye liner with a slight wing and cherry red lipgloss. Her hair was in a low, donut hole, side bun. Even if she wasn't a girly girl she agreed to just go with it and it definitely payed off.

Brittany was wearing a cute lavender dress that had 3 fingers width straps and came mid-thigh. It hugged her body and showed off her curves and then flowed out past her waist. Her make-up consisted of pinkish- lavender blush, neutral eye shadows, eye liner on the top and bottom lashes,mascara and sheer, fuchsia lipgloss. She was wearing silver, starfish, stud earrings. She had on silver flats. She was stunning.

As they walked out the door I handed them their bags; Brittany had a small, silver, over the shoulder bag and Emily had a black leather clutch.

"Thank you so much!" They both yelled as they walked out the door.

"You're very welcome! Good luck; both of you!" I yelled back.

Ah, if only that were me...

Brittany's POV

I met Louis outside. He opened the car door for me like a gentleman.

"Thank you", I giggled

"I'm so glad you said yes to coming on this date with me", he said, smiling.

"I'm glad you asked me", I replied. "Where are we going anyways?" I asked.

"To a quiet, little, seafood restaurant by the bay. It's really nice, with really good food." He said smiling at me before turning back to the road.

When we got there, he opened the door for me and led me inside.

The waiter brought us to a secluded little table in the corner. It was very cozy with a homey kind of feel.

We ordered our food. We both got Orange Roughy over rice with shrimp, scalloped potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, and sugar-snap peas. It really was good!

"Hahaha!" I laughed loudly at one of Louis' jokes. He laughed along with me.

It was soon time to leave. In the car I stated "this was so fun! It's too early for this night to end".

"Maybe it doesn't have to", Louis' said.

"What are you talking about Lou?" I questioned, raising my eyebrows.

"There's a little park a couple blocks away if you wanna go", he answered me.

"Yes! Lets go!" I smiled.

We got there and started walking through the large park: hand in hand.

"Brittany?"

"Yeah Lou?"

"I've had a really good time tonight."

"Me too," it was getting late; I leaned on him, resting my head on his shoulder.

"Brittany?"

"Yes Louis?"

"Will you go on another date with me next week?"

"Of course Lou," I replied yawning. I was starting to drift off to sleep in Louis' arms, as it was very late and I'd had a very eventful night.

Then all of a sudden, it started to rain, hard. It didn't take long for me to be soaked, or for me to register the fact that I would transform soon.

I ran away as fast as fast as my legs could carry me. But I really couldn't run that fast so Louis caught up to me quickly. I felt a slight burning sensation and then fell to the ground. My purple tail and purple scaled top replacing my lavender dress.

Louis saw it all. What would he think?! He just stared, wide eyed and jaw hitting the floor. I could tell he was shocked.

"You're a... you're a... you're... a... mermaid..." he choked out. Then his face broke out into a huge grin, "you're a mermaid!"

Emily's POV

I saw Niall at the curb. His eyes widened.

"You look beautiful!"

I blushed looking down, "thank you".

We walked to Carter's Crazy Pizza Parlor. The best and craziest pizza place there was. You could get practically ANY Type of pizza with ANY toppings and cut ANY way you'd like!

We ate our pizza happily and then went to the 7:30 showing of "Now You See Me" which was supposed to be really good!

When the movie ended we walked through town, trying to get to know each other better.

"That movie sucked," I laughed.

"Yeah," He agreed and laughed with me.

"What's your favorite color?" Niall asked me randomly.

"Red, what's yours?" I said

"Green", he replied.

This continued for another hour and then he walked me to Cassie's house because Brit and I were staying over tonight.

"Thank you for the lovely night Niall," I said blushing for like-the 50th time- why did I keep blushing?! It's so not like me! I'm hard core. I don't get nervous around guys. But with Niall, it was different. I always get butterflies when I'm around him and he makes me blush at the littlest things! I really like him. I hope he asks me on another date.

As if he read my mind he said, "Can we go on another date soon?" He smiled down at me. His eyes looked hopeful.

"I would love to" I replied smiling dork-ishly. But right now I didn't care what I looked like. I pecked Niall on the lips and skipped inside. Whoa! I just skipped! This boy is seriously changing me...

Brittany's P.O.V.

We were all in our pajamas in Cassie's huge bedroom. I was laying down on the king size bed and Cassie sat on the floor with Emily sitting on the love seat by the unlit fireplace.

We were describing the details of ours dates; Cassie was listening intently. When I brought up the part about being caught in the rain, Cassie looked worried. My eyes widened. Filled with all my unspoken words. We would have to deal with this another time... when it was just us...

Another Cassie pic to the side! She's played by Taylor Swift, but with longer hair. (~Lainey)
