The Bad Boy And The Mermaid
Chapter 18
Blue
Alec 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.
“I said you look like a mermaid.” Alec said with a grin.
I was utterly confused. “How did you...how did you know that I was a mermaid?”
Alec burst out laughing. “Nice one. I meant that Blue hair really suits you; I know it doesn’t suit much people. I have seen some girls in college dye their hair blue, you know to try something different but they ended up looking like complete witches. But I can’t believe how natural it looks on you.”
Oh. So he liked my blue hair hence the comment about me being a mermaid. I sighed in relief.
“Thanks, Alec. I like my hair too.”
“You know what? that just made you sound downright conceited.” He said laughing. “But with that face and body of yours, I can’t say I’m really mad. You’re allowed a bit of narcissism.”
“Hey, what you guys talking about?” Phoenix leaned against the bar and pushed an empty glass towards Alec.
“We were just talking about how narcissistic you are, Phoenix Lockhart.”
“I could fire your ass for that comment, Alec Rogers.”
Alec just smiled. “I would love to see you try, bro.”
What was that scent? I brought my nose close to Phoenix, going on my tiptoes, took a long sniff and sighed. “You smell nice.”
His face went red. I had no idea why. “Uh...Okay. Thanks, I guess.”
Alec cleared his throat. “In all seriousness, we were just talking about mermaids. I’m so fascinated by mythical creatures. Did you know that more than eighty percent of the world’s oceans have been undiscovered? Imagine if they did some serious underwater researches, they may come across merfolks. Who knows there are probably some beautiful mermaids down there. Blue could totally look like one.”
Phoenix rolled his eyes. “You should totally stop geeking out like that, dude. Blue looks like she could use a drink for all that nerdy talk.”
Alec passed me a look full of suspicious. “Would you like a drink?”
“What kind of drink?” I asked.
“The type that I’m making.”
I looked between Phoenix and Alec. “I mean Maximus told me not to drink during the shift.”
“Trust me; if your hand or mouth is nowhere near my dick, your position is not in danger. I can guarantee you that. Besides, your shift is almost over.” Phoenix assured me, a cocky smile on his lips.
“A dick?” I asked. “What part of the male anatomy is that?”
Alec grinned. “See. I like Blue and her easy-going personality. She doesn’t even get remotely embarrassed. Lucky boyfriend.”
“I wish my boyfriend knew how lucky he was.”
