Third person p.o.v
When Lyla and Zac entered the cafe the first thing they saw was Nixie. She was sitting next to Cam, chatting and looking all happy. Lyla and Zac shared a confused look and walked over to the two. "Um hello?", Zac said. Nixie looked at him in disgust, but Cam greeted him with a short "Hey man". "What are you guys doing here? Together?", Lyla asked, directed to Nixe. She shifted under the gaze of Lyla and Cam put an protective arm around her shoulders. "Wait, what's going ooon?", Zac asked, but before someone could answer Ivy came up them and hugged Zac from behind."Hi babe.", she whispered in his ear. Zac smiled and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Nixie and Cam took this chance to leave, so they don't have to answer the questions. "Nixie, Cam!", Lyla wanted to walk after them but Zac held her back. "Don't you dare leave me alone now!", he whispered and tried so get of the grip from Ivy. Their relationship hasn't been so good lately.
"Ivy, I would love to hang out with you, but I'm actually really busy right now.", Zac lied. Ivy's smile immediately fell. "What?" "Sorry babe.", Zac answered gave her a kiss on the cheek and left as fast as he could, followed by a confused Lyla. "What was that?", she asked when they were out of the cafe. "Um I don't know.... Ivy and me....It didn't seem to work out lately.." Lyla simply said "Oh."
Nixie p.o.v.
I was lying in Cam's arms, just enjoying life. "This is wonderful.", he whispered in my ear. I could feel his warm breath, which made me shiver slightly. I simply nodded and gave him a kiss on the cheek. It felt fantastic and I had a million butterflys in my stomach, but at the same time I knew it was wrong. I knew that we were too diffrent to be together. I knew that one day we will return to the pod, and I'll have to leave him here, heartbroken. His idea to become a merman himself was absolutely ridiculous. I hope he forgets this stupid idea soon. "What if he just wants to become a merman to destroy you and all the mermaids?", a little voice inside my head said. First I thought this was stupid ans ignored the thought of it. But the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. What if Cam is just using me?
I pulled away from him, staring in his eyes looking for his feelings in them. He looked at me with love, it felt right, he looked so innocent and nice but - I still don't know if I can trust him. You see guys, I'm a very doubtful person. I don't trust Zac and I'm not sure if I can trust Cam. But when I can't even trust my own boyfriend, how will this ever work out between us? This relationship is a complete desaster, I knew it all the way long. I'm not ready for a relationship, exspecially not with a landman. I'm a mermaid and he's not, and that will never change.
Cam noticed the changing of my mood and looked at me worriedly. "What's wrong Nixie?", he asked. "This won't work out.", I said and stood up abruptly, starting to walk away. "W-what?", he asked, voice filled with disbelief. I took deep breaths. I knew I couldn't resist him if I talk to him, looking into his puppy eyes. But I also knew that I had to. That I will probably never be able to trust him, or his best friend Zac or anyone. I have major trust issues, and I have so many doubts that Cam will just use me and stuff. Too many for being in a relationship.
First I need to time to think. Time to figure out what I want.
