Sweet Aria

Monster

Aria's POV
I blame the voice. What the heck are you talking about voice when you said 'it has started'! What has started. I begin rubbing furiously at my hand. I've been trying for an hour now. But they haven't come off. I've tried everything. "Umm Aria...?" Drew called. I turned too see him with his hands over his eyes in the girls bathroom. "Drew! What are you doing here?!" I asked surprised. He followed my voice and stood in front of me. "You were taking so long I got worried!" He said. I smiled. He reached his hand out trying to find me. I grabbed it and put it to my cheek. I smiled at his touch. "Princess if you aren't feeling well then we can go home! I don't want you too get anymore sick then you are!" He said worried. I smiled. Then I looked down at my hand. I hid it behind my back. "No! We can stay! I just had some marker on my hand from work! It's sharpie and I was trying to get it off!" I explained quickly. He smiled. "Alright then let's go on more water rides princess!" He said excitedly. I smiled. Then I quickly led him out of the bathroom. He moved his hand once we were outside so he could see. He smiled at me and I smiled back. "Let's go on that one!" He yelled excitedly pointing at one. I smiled and nodded. Then I let him tug me along to ride after ride. I had scales by my elbows on both arms, the top of my thigh, my right hand,  some on my right cheek leading to the corner of my eye, and some on the top of my left foot. I had hair covering one eye, sneakers, and both my arms hiding behind my back. I had too pull my shorts down to cover the scales. Drew was having fun so that's what mattered. We had one more ride too go on. Once we went on that one I completely hide my stomach. "What's wrong princess?!" Drew asked worried. I laughed awkwardly. "I'm just.... cold! Can I use your hoodie please!" I told him pretending to shiver. I had scales on my stomach now. He smiled. Then he quickly took off his hoodie and gave it too me. I quickly put it on. It covered all of my scales except for the ones on my foot and face. He smiled gently. I smiled up at him. "Thank you!" I said smiling. He smiled back. He had his arm covering my shoulders. I gently laid my head on his shoulder. We sat down on the hill and watched the night stars. This Water Park was a famous one. It was partially famous because of the fact that their are some hotels and campgrounds in the park. So it isn't very uncommon to see someone about in the dark. Then I felt a cold splash hit my backside. "Hey! Watch it!" Drew yelled at the guy who accidentally spilled his water over me. I held my head as I heard the voice. I looked down at my hands and start to panic a little. There's no hiding this... In between each finger was webbing. "Hey are you ok!?" Drew asked worried. Then before I could react he turned me so I looked at him. He stared at me in utter confusion. Then he looked down at the hand he was holding. He quickly dropped it. "W-what happened too you...?" Drew asked curiously. Then he grabbed my chin and moved my hair. He looked at the scales. I moved away from him. Then he quickly took his hoodie off of me. "No! Don't look!" I yelled trying to hide my scales. He looked at them all. Then he took my sneakers off to reveal more webbing. What am I? A monster. "Princess are you feeling ok?" He asked. I stood up shaking my head. Then I ran. "Aria!" He yelled after me. I ran to the fountain and looked into my reflection. My ears even changed to like a fin. I slammed my fists into the water. Water splashed all over me. But it only made the problem worse. I grew fins on my elbows, back, and the back of my ankles. "Aria!" Drew yelled as he found me. I felt tears. I was scared. What was I? This isn't a werewolf transformation is it!? By the look on Drew's face, I could tell it wasn't. I backed away. "You shouldn't have followed." I told him. "Why not?" He asked stepping closer too me. "Get back drew!" I yelled. "Aria please...!" He begged. He stepped closer too me. "No...! Don't touch me!" I yelled. He just stared at me. Then he touched my cheek. Brushing his thumbs across my scales. "I said don't touch me!" I yelled. I swiped at him. Then a wave of blue was around me. It crashed into Drew. When I realized that I caused it, I stopped and looked at Drew on the ground. I looked down at my hands. I really am a monster. I covered my mouth as tears escaped. Drew stood up and looked at me. He's goin to get killed by me. I looked at him and shook my head no. Then I ran away quickly.
Drew's POV
I chased after her but I lost her. I began too look around for her. It was about 3-4 hours before I found her curled up next too the wave pool. She was crying. I walked up behind her and hugged her. "What's happening too me?" She asked quietly. I thought about it quietly. "I don't know, but we'll get through this together. I promise." I said. She slowly lifted her head and turned to me. I saw her. She looked like a water nymph. I smiled. "I'm a monster. How can you be so calm!" She yelled. I smiled then started laughing. She looked at me confused. I stopped to take a breath. "I-I'm sorry princess! I shouldn't laugh! But you look like a water nymph." I told her. "What does that mean?" She asked. "It means that Poseidon chose you to be a nymph as well." Someone said coming up too us. We turned around. I glared at her. "What do you want Cass?" I asked letting my anger show. I held Aria closer to me.
