Fourteen - The Mermaid misses the Bad Boy
HUNTER
I placed Blue's luggage on the bed and began unpacking it. I was going to help her put things in place so she didn't face a problem later when she was alone.
She sat down at the edge of the bed and looked around curiously. "Is this room..."
"Mine. It was my bedroom when I used to live in the house with my family."
She climbed to her feet and walked towards some shelves and looked at the trophies and awards I'd received during school. "You were a good student." She remarked.
"Yeah. Kinda...I guess." I tried to remain modest about these things. I didn't think too much about the trophies. I didn't think much of anything. My entire life had no meaning whatsoever.
She pointed at a framed high school picture of me sitting on the bedside table. It was a picture of me with my soccer team, the entire group of jock players who used to be my friends at one time. When my father declared to disown me, the same gro

BLUEWhen I woke up the next morning, the first thing I did was reach for my phone. My finger's hovered over Hunter's phone number. He had told me I could call him but only if I was in a major crisis. I was just missing him; I missed waking up to the warmth of his large body, tracing those tattoos on his arms, and even running my tongue over it when he was fast asleep. I missed that little apartment and the aroma of breakfast that he prepared for me. I missed Leslie.My eyes were suddenly moist as I remembered every single detail. I hadn't realized that someone had been calling out my name."Blue."The door barged open and Hannah walked in. I tried to wipe away the tears but she'd already seen it. Her expressions softened. "Oh, honey..." she sat down on the oversized bed. "You miss Hunter, don't you?"I gave her a nod. "Why can't I go back to him?"She ran her hand through my hair. "I'm so sorr
The Bad Boy & The Mermaid Sixteen - The Mermaid goes clubbing
BLUE"What's clubbing? What do I have to do there?" I asked Hannah. I was excited at the prospect of going out somewhere. I was tired of being holed up in the house for an entire week.Worse all I did was ended up thinking about Hunter. Now I had really made him upset and I had to find a way to apologize but before that, I wanted to go out."Clubbing is where you will be dancing."I shook my head. "I don't like dancing. Let's go somewhere else.""You will be fine. It's a club slash bar so there will be a lounge where you can sit and chill if you don't like dancing. They serve the best tortilla chips and guacamole and don't even get me started with their burgers
The Bad Boy & The Mermaid Seventeen - The Mermaid gets a job
BlueWhen I touched Tyler's hand, I could see snippets of his life. His tragic past, bits of his childhood, so much pain and the face of a beautiful woman. I pulled away abruptly and he stared at me in confusion. I took a step back, then another. He had his hand raised towards me. "Are you alright?"I was panting. If I had kept the connection much longer, it probably would have taken a toll on me. That is one reason why I tried to block away people's memories when they touched me."Blue?" Hannah was clearly anxious. "What happened?"I plastered a fake smile and turned to him. "Can...Can I start with my work?""Of course. I'm sure Max briefed you about what you'
The Bad Boy & The Mermaid Eighteen - The Mermaid gets drunk
BlueAlec was a funny guy. I realized that he was the only boy I actually liked other than Hunter, but I knew that my liking for Hunter was different. When I was with him, I had butterflies in my stomach taking flight all at once, but with Alec, I felt no such thing. I was just very comfortable around him, the way I felt around Hannah too."Did I tell you that you look like a mermaid?"That snapped me out of my thoughts and brought me back what he'd just said. "What?"Did he say, mermaid?!How did he find out? I was pretty sure I hadn't said a word about the Underwater world or being a mermaid. I was starting to panic.
The Bad Boy & The Mermaid Nineteen - The Bad Boy hates the Mermaid's New Job
Hunter An impish glee was settling inside me as I packed Blue's things from my older room where she stayed for the entire week. I was happy because I was finally bringing her back where she belonged. With me.The entire time that I packed her things, she hadn't said a word to me. Just remained by my side, helping me pack her bag. I didn't miss how she kept sneaking glances at me and when I smiled at her she would just look away.Strange.I tried not to feel wounded with the fact that I had said I loved her and she hadn't said that she loved me back. Then again, what had I expected? If it was going to remain a one-sided unrequited love, so be it. I was going to love her nevertheless. It wasn't every da
The Bad Boy & The Mermaid Twenty - The Mermaid confesses to the Bad Boy
HunterLeslie jumped on Blue as soon as we stepped through the threshold. He was so happy to see her, he literally couldn't stop going around in circles and then sprawled on the floor for belly-rubs."You're such a good boy." Blue cooed. "I missed you too, Les."Leslie was indeed a lucky dog. Any man would be more than happy to have Leslie's place just for an hour. She hugged the little traitor close, burying her nose in his fur."I'm so glad to be back." She whispered."Yeah, me too. I missed you, Blue." I said, "I thought I was doing the right thing by sending you away but I was obviously wrong. I shouldn't have—"
The Bad Boy & The Mermaid Twenty-One - The Mermaid goes to the movies
Hunter Blue had been upset for the next few days and I didn't understand the reason why. Normally, she was very cheerful, talker non-stop, made me laugh and constantly asked me to strip from down below so she could see what all the fuss was about. But since the time that she'd been back from Hannah's she'd remained aloof. I asked her a question, and her head was often in the clouds.This was very unlike her.And now her behavior was bothering me because it continued on for another week. When Blue asked me one afternoon if she could hang out with Hannah, I said yes. I didn't understand why she needed permission from me to go with my sister, and the same evening she said Alec invited her to go to the movies with him.
The Bad Boy & The Mermaid Twenty Two - The Mermaid gets sex education
Hunter What's a virgin?"I started to think of a less explicit way that I could explain to Blue what being a virgin meant. Her large bright blue eyes stared at me in what appeared to be sheer fascination and curiosity. She was waiting for an answer. My word could be law."Well, a person who has never had sex in their life is usually a virgin," I explained.Blue continued to stare at me, and that was making me nervous. "What's sex?"I blew out a breath and maybe I was starting to sweat a little. "When a man and a woman go to bed naked...they do things to each other.""Bad things?"
