A Knock On the Window (ON HOLD)

Mermaid Lagoon

He beams at me. "The mermaids it is then." He starts flying towards the lagoon and I follow. When we get there the girls are all piled up on the rocks, doing their hair.

"Peter!" they all shout when they see him. He lands on a big rock in the middle of the water and they all crowd around him. "Oh tell us a story Peter!" they beg.

"Alright!" he says, and starts spitting out some story that I'm sure isn't true and for the first time I realize that I hadn't brought any of my things, oh dear...

"Who's she?" I hear I high pitched voice ask.

"Melody." Peter says.

"Oh Peter not another one!" they complain.

"Oh come on you guys, at least try to get along."

"Well thank god this one is actually dressed!" the blond one shouted.

I looked down at myself, I was wearing some dark skinnies, a sheer blue tank top, and a pair of black studded combat boots with some old gold spiked necklace thing. To hipster, in my opinion. "Yep," I say, "that's me, 'actually dressed'."

"Come on down here!" they shout.

I raise an eyebrow, "In what story are mermaids good?" I ask sharply.

"What are you taking about?" asks the red haired one with obvious false innocence.

You can practically hear my eyes roll, "Oh please, all they try to do is drown people! I'm perfectly comfortable up here, thanks."

They try to coax me down, but I stand my ground. That is until Peter grabs my wrist and starts to lead me towards the water, I give me a questioning look but allow it. Looking back on the experience I didn't know why. After I landed on the rock it was a bit of a blur. A mix of green tails, shouts, and a high pitched squeal that I tried to convince myself hadn't come from me. But when I regained awareness I was soaked through to my underware.

"Oh that's great." I say sarcastically, "Thanks." I shake my arm like when you're trying to get something gross off but know it's pointless. All I can here is Peter and the mermaids laughing. "Oh you think this is funny do you?" I ask him.

"Well yes, a bit." he says between breaths. He's hovering not that far away from me, over the water.

I smirk. "Well you know what else is funny?" I ask him.

He stops laughing immediately and leans towards me, "What?" he asks in all seriousness.

"This." I say, and I jump towards him, off the rock, and grab his arm and pull him down. He wasn't expecting it.

When we resurface I'm the one who's laughing. The mermaids are whispering amongst themselves.

He staring wide eyed at me, as if he couldn't believe I'd one-uped him. I smirk, and his look of shock disappears into one of absolute joy and he starts laughing along with me.

"You want to go dry off?" he asks.

UNEXPECTED CHAPTER!!! I haven't quit on you guys don't worry, I just don't find this Fic very interesting any more so I kind of have to be in the mood to write it. And there may be a month brake between chapters, sorry. Those of you who are reading it, thank you! I'm not that popular (probably because I suck) but hey that's okay! Ta-ta for now and all that shit (I'm sorry it almost 2am and I'm tired, but I was just so close to finishing this chapter, and I can't remember what I usually put at my AN closings for this Fic so please tell me if this is not it).
