"You broke my heart and I won't let you have any more time in my life."

"You do not get that choice," he said, grabbing my arm trying to pull me towards him.

So I sucker-punched him and watched as he fell back into the sea clutching his nose. "I don't get a choice?" I laughed angry tears falling from my eyes. "This is my life I can do whatever I want with my life you don't have control of me."

I started to walk away from the sea, not wanting to deal with him. But he yelled out a reply making me turn back towards him.

"I'm sorry ok," The merman said watching me from the water. "I didn't mean it."

"Didn't mean it?" I growled bawling my hands into fists trying to not get angry. "You did it to spite me because I wanted to go to visit my friend."

"I-" The merman started but shut his mouth when he saw how angry I truly was. "You'll be back."

"No, I won't," I told him walking away from the sea towards my home. I threw open the door slamming it closed behind me and went into my design studio. I closed the door gently now feeling my anger diminished I locked it and slid down. I pulled my knees up hugging them as sobs racked against my rib cage wishing I never fell in love so easily.

"Kawai?" A voice asked from the other side of the door making me pause mid sob. "Are you ok?"

"I would rather be alone right now James thanks for checking on me though," I told him feeling my hair fall out of its messy bun.

"Are you sure maybe I can call someone?" James asked making me smile sadly.

"I'm fine James really don't worry take the night off do nothing stupid," I said laughing at the last part.

"I don't want to leave you here upset," he said turning on the nob not being able to open it since I locked it.

"Please, just go do something fun I'll be fine," I told him trying to stay strong, so he didn't worry.

"Ok as long as you're sure," James said, waiting for me to say something but continuing when I didn't respond. "Goodnight Kawai."

"Goodnight James," I said listening to his footsteps walk away from the door.

I wiped the tears that began to fall from my face and turned the light on practically dragging myself to the desk. I flopped down into the comfortable roller chair and moved my designs away from me. I put my head down onto the desk not feeling like dealing with anything more but knowing I had photoshoots tomorrow that wouldn't happen.

"Yeah, your right it won't happen," a familiar voice said inside my head. "But you know what could make us feel better?"

I sighed knowing exactly what she would say and really not wanting to deal with her.

"Killing the merman would make us feel better," Lizzy said enthusiastically as if it was the best idea in the world.

"No killing anyone you know the deal," I reminded her lightly banging my head on the table from being aggravated with her. "Anyway, that won't make me feel better."

"What about researching Phoenix?" She suggested sadly that I didn't take her first idea.

"I don't feel like it," I told her and stopped banging my head just leaning my head on the table not moving beginning to feel numb.
