Mermaid Bay

Chapter 21

Taylor's P.O.V

   I made a mistake, or was it was a mistake? I wasn't sure what to think about now. I was driving back from Vanessa's house and I....... kissed her. The biggest rule of hunting, don't get attached, just destroy the supernatural. Not this time, this time was different. Her smile, her laugh, her evreything is just so perfect. Part of me is telling me that this is all a trick, she was using her charm, or the other hunters were testing me. But I know what the real case was, I had fallen for Vanessa, the non human, the thing I have been tought to hunt since I could remember, I had fallen for a mermaid.

    I don't hunt the supernatural for the fun of it, I have a reason, a very important reason.

Flashback*

 I was around eight and my mom, dad , and big sister and I had gone to the beach. I had a normal life then, we even had a dog and a white picite fence. At, that point it felt like nothing could go wrong, I was not expecting anything, just like they were hoping for. I had gone back to our car to get the sand toys that we forgot, while the rest of my family was hanging out at the beach. I saw it, I saw it all. A big wave came out of nowhere and swept my family into the ocean, and there were these creatures, and they were dragging them down into the water and suffocating them. I ran to the beach,afraid of going into the water. There was nothing I could do, just watch my family slowly suffocate. I remember one thing very clearly though, the things that killed my family were half human and half fish, they were mermaids.

 

   The hunters came along not to long after, they took me with them, raising me as one of them. I was falling for something that murdered my family, I wanted to stop the feelings but I couldn't, what wouldmy family think of me now?

 Vanessa's P.O.V

   Saying that I was suprised would be the understatment of the decade. The thing that really bothered me, was that I liked it. Had Taylor been drugged by micky mouse? Or was he just trying to screw with me? What knid of game was he playing? I know I am pretty socially awkward but this is not normal.

  I kissed back....... I hate to say it but I did. My feelings for Taylor; utterly confusing, my feelings for Gale; very, very complicated. Am I getting punished for something? or is the universe intentionally screwing with me? I don't know, but I do know one thing. I need to sleep, as a crazy as things are right now, a mermaid needs to get her full eight hours.

Next mourning**

   Me being me, I can't think of anything better to do than sleep. I, of course am always inturrupted. There was something shaking me, bouncing me actually. I reluctently peeled one eye open, then the other. There were angie and tris were jumping on my bed, trying to wake me up I assumed. Well, congradulations. If looks could kill there blood would be boiling. Hmm, now that I think about it........
