PART 14: STELLA'S POV.
I stood silently on the ساحل سمندر, بیچ and let the waves wash over my feet. Then I ran and کبوتر into the water. It was warmer than usual today. I still couldn't believe that Claire had to stay ہوم to watch her brothers. She never missed our little swims. The water felt almost lonely without her. I decided after an گھنٹہ that it was time to get out. I pulled myself onto the ساحل سمندر, بیچ and began searching for my towel. Suddenly I noticed something was blocking my sun. A shadow. I gasped and looked up. David threw the towel at me and laughed. "You scared me to death!" I yelled. "You should really be مزید careful, Stell. This is a public beach." I rolled my eyes. "No one comes down here." He smiled his amused smiled. "I do." I dryed off and jumped to my feet. Hi hand reached out and grabbed me before i could fall back into the water. I grabbed hisshoulders to steady myself. "Thanks." I mumbled. He began twirling a loose hair that came out of my messy bun. I was suddenly uncomfortable. It felt too..too right. 'Will. Only Will.' I though to myself. I pulled out of his arms and started walking down the beach. He was behind me. "Stella, i love you." He whispered. I came back to reality then. I sat up gasping. "Just a dream." I repeated over and over. I climbed out of بستر and got dressed quickly. I couldn't stop the tears that came down now. I was going ہوم today. It had been a ماہ and I hadn't found my mother. i was a failure. Maybe she really was dead. Maybe I was wrong. I went down stairs with my suitcase and hugged my Aunt. "Please come visit me. I'll be so lonely without your mother around." I wiped away my tears, nodded once, and then headed out the door.
***Later***
I sighed and walked through th door of my familiar house. it rattled a little and I didn't apologize to my mother because she wouldn't hear me. She was gone. I could hear my dad running down the hallway. "STELLA!?" He yelled. "Yeah dad, it's me." I mumbled. He hugged my tightly and began crying. I'd never seen him cry...ever. "I thought I lost you. Claire wouldn't tell me anything. I'll do a better job I promise, just don't leave me again, Stell." I patted his back. "I'm home." i کہا into his ear. "I'm staying here." After assuring my dad that i was here to stay I headed اگلے door. Claire answered after one knock. "AHHHH!" She screamed. "Your back!" She did't let me go for another minute. "Yeah i'm back." Her face suddenly was filled with regret. "Any..er, luck?" She asked. My silent No was somehow louder than if I had screamed it. She understood teh pained look in my eyes. I spent an گھنٹہ with Claire and then walked down to the Café. Macy was already singing, staring at me, bug eyed. She smiled. I waved and sat down up front. David didn't see me. David bgan playing his گٹار solo. It was so loud. He was an amazing musician. It made me smile. Then suddenly he looked up. He met my gaze for a سیکنڈ an Macy picked up where he left off. He smiled and looked like he might run off stage. I winked at him. After the song he came from around the stage and caught me in a برداشت, ریچھ hug. He was rubbing my hair. "God, where have آپ been!?" I laughed darkly. "Places." This was enough for him. "Can آپ stay?" He asked, smiling. I sighed. "No, i still gotta go down to Will's vollyball practice. He's been calling me all day. We'll hang tomorrow." His eyes were guarded. "Sure." It would be a longer walk than usual to the ساحل سمندر, بیچ which was the opposite direction. Too much time to think. I thought about all the homework I would have when i got back to school to keep me occupied. The sand of the ساحل سمندر, بیچ felt good. Like a محفوظ harbor. Like home. The vollyball game was loud. I hadn't ever been to a game before Just practices. I sat down in the provided lawn chairs and watched. Will was focused on the game. Ethan was pouring water over his head. Huh, guess it was hot outside. I didn't notice. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a short brown haired woman staring at me. She was smiling. I smiled back. She motioned for me to come sit سے طرف کی her. Confused, i walked overand sat in the provided chair. "You must be Stella." She sad, smiling wider. "Um, yeah." I whispered. She laughed a familiar laugh. "I'm Will's mom. I've heard a lot about you." That explained the familiar laugh. they were a lot alike. "Oh, it's nice to meet you." I said. I felt bad because I knew I was slightly jealous. He had a wonderful mother and I did not. Her smile was beautiful, yet it had nothing on my mother's. The referee blew into his whistle and Will came running towards us. "Stella!" He yelled, smiling. I noticed that he was dripping wet. He came towards me, but did not touch me. It was like he knew..
He picked up a towel and dried off his hands and face. Then he leaned in and kissed me till I was dizzy. His mom was beaming. "Mom, آپ met Stella." He said. "Of course, what a lovely girl. آپ treat her right William." She scolded. I laughed and he laughed with me.

Seeing Will look at his mother with such respect made me feel a little better. As soon as I saw him again, I knew that i was supposed to be with him. David was an amazing friend, and an amazing person in general, but Will was just...I can't explain it. It's like he was meant for me. Tomorrow after I spent some time with David, as promised, I would tell Will the mermaid secret. First i would discuss it with Claire, but I knew she would insist that he knew. Claire was such a child. If he accepts that i'm a fishy freak then my life would be almost whole.
