Mermaid Sisterhood (A Neverland story)

Chapter 1

 Adrianna was already 4 metres under water and still going deeper. She still had lots of air in her lungs and she felt her adrenaline rush through her veins . She loved swimming, especially being underwater. It made her feel that nothing could hurt her in the underwater world and that all her problems just washed away. 

 She took a look around her, the water was very clear so she could see small fish swimming past her. For some reason she could hold her breath for longer than most people and she was an excellent swimmer even though she had never been on a swimming course. Swimming was a natural thing for Adrianna, just like walking felt like a natural thing for people. She felt the familiar feeling that it was time to go and get some air. It only took a few strong strokes to break the surface. She took a deep breath and flipped her hair out of her face.

"Adrianna! There you are! You know I hate when you stay underwater for a long time." Adrianna's mum Lindsey said and you could hear from her voice that she was really worried. "You know I can't save you if something happens" she continued. Lindsey couldn't swim. That was the reason. "Mum you know I'm a good swimmer! You don't have to sit here and watch me every time I take a swim" Witch was a lot of times. Adrianna was irritated.They practically always went through the same conversation when Adrianna took a swim. She really didn't understand why her mum had to watch over her like this. "But sweetheart, you know I'm worried about you. It's not good for you to stay underwater so long. I'm not sitting here to annoy you, I'm sitting here because I love you." Lindsey said with a warm smile on her face. With that said the last of Adrianna's irritation flew away. "Yeah I know, sorry, I love you too" Adrianna sighed. "We'll have dinner in an hour so get up now " Lindsey said with a gentle voice as she stood up from from the little bridge. Lindsey wandered up the hill to the cute little cottage. Lindsey was the best mum you could ever ask for, she was so loving and caring. She was chubby, had grey middle long hair and a warm smile. She baked cinnamon buns almost every day and made the most wonderful food ever.

Adrianna loved to just sit on the bridge after a swim and admire the view. She really loved the place where she lived. She lived in a little cottage by a lake with her mum. There was forest surrounding the whole place and the nearest neighbours were 10 km away. 

Adrianna was adopted. She didn't worry about it too much because she loved Lindsey like a real mum. Of course she wondered sometimes how her real parents were like but she was happy here with Lindsey. Adrianna turned around and walked up the the cottage and then to her room. She got changed to her favourite grey sweatpants and a black top. She brushed her long brown curly hair. "Dinner is ready!" Lindsey screamed. "Coming!" Adrianna answered.
