Mako's Last Black-Tailed Mermaid

Believe To Become

Josh's POV
Poor Hayden. He hasn't had any idea of what's been going on with Kayla. But I have, and I've kept it from him. I should've told him, but it wasn't my secret to tell.

I've finished work now, so I started to pack up my stuff and get ready to leave.

I put my bag on my back, said goodbye to David, and then I walked out the door.

On the way, I accidently bumped into Cam, which was totally unexpected.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Cam." I said, helping him up from the floor.

"That's alright. I'm sorry, I didn't see where I was going. Are you okay?" He asked me.

I took a good look at the expression on his face.

It was a mixture of worried and surprised all together.

"Yea, I'm fine. Just, surprised." I said.

He patted his pants down and shook my hand.

"Well, it was nice bumping into you." He said with a smirk.

We both started laughing and we said our goodbyes.

I walked away, and looked back at him, not really knowing what to expect to see back from him. As I looked back, I saw that he did the same and I quickly directed my attention to where I was going, to avoid another accident.

I hadn't really noticed anything like this before. But Cam had such gorgeous eyes.

Maybe it's just because I'm gay that I notice that, but he has the most amazing eyes.

Anyway, I was thinking about Cam while I walked all the way home. What was happening to me?

I shook my head, as if to shake these thoughts from my mind. It didn't work, but I got to the apartment and opened my door.

I stepped in and put my keys on the table. My first instinct was to go to the fridge, and that's exactly what I did.

I sat down on the couch, as I thought of all the things that Hayden could do to Erik.

Poor Kayla. She hasn't done anythung to deserve any of this, yet she still has it handed to her on a silver platter.

I just still can't believe that Erik raped Kayla. What kind of sick person does that? And for what? What was or is he trying to achieve here?

I couldn't help but feel bad for her her. She hasn't had it easy, from what I've heard. It still frustrated me that I don't know the entire story though. Even if Zac and Evie say that they've told me everything there is to know about Kayla, I still feel like there's something missing.

The worry in my stomach was all getting a little too much. So I picked up my phone and I called Hayden.

I let it ring a couple of times when all of a sudden I heard the voice of my brother. He didn't sound too happy.

"Yes?" He asked, rudely. I guess he has good reason to be mad. But just not at me.

"I was wondering what you plan on doing? Even if you find Erik, what are you going to say or do to him?" I asked, very worried for my brother's life.

"Josh, I need to find him. You heard what he said about Kayla, what he said he's done to Kayla. I can't let him get away with it. And I certainly can't give him another chance to do it again." He said. Well, it made sense at least.

"Okay, well, where are you? Maybe I could help you look." I asked.

"I'm at the beach, near Rita's place." He said, hesitantly. As if having me there with him, would ruin things.
