The Bad Boy And The Mermaid
Chapter 23
Blue
Hunter woke me up a little earlier than usual the next day, and he appeared to be a little worried. It seemed like Hunter’s family had a tradition to spend one afternoon for lunch together at the family table every year, and this time, his father and step-mother wanted me to be there with him.
Honestly, I didn’t understand what the big deal was about. I was going to meet Hunter’s parents, and I couldn’t have been happier. I’d always wondered what his father looked like, if Hunter was a splitting image of his father, what kind of a man he was. I wanted to know everything about his family. Every little detail about him.
The first day that I’d stepped into the human world by accident, and met Hunter, I’d been scared of him, and I’d been eager to go back into the ocean, to see my family and while I still missed my family and friends, I wondered what would happen if I went back to my world a month later and couldn’t see Hunter at all.
What would life be without Hunter?
Could I really live an eternity without him?
If I left, I was sure he’d find someone to care for him because beneath all those layers of harsh looks, temper and tattoos, was a guy with a kind and a caring soul. That wasn’t even the problem; the problem was that I didn’t want Hunter to find someone. The thought of him with another woman made me ill. He’d share his lovely smiles, his laughter, the warmth of his embrace and the sweet ‘I love yous’ with someone else that wasn’t me.
Even thinking of a faceless beautiful girl with him gave me a sudden ache in my chest. I wanted him all to myself, and I didn’t know how I could make this work without hurting either my family or Hunter. I wasn’t entirely blind to the truth. No matter how much he adored me, he knew I didn’t belong in his world and he’d often told me how lucky he was, but I wasn’t so sure of it myself. I had started to believe that Hunter was trying to forget that I was a mermaid who needed to go back home one day.
And while I was here, I wanted to forget about it too and live in the moment because the reality was hurting me badly. I couldn’t deny it anymore, the fact that I’d fallen in love with him, and that I would do anything to make sure he stayed with me. If Hunter learned of my thoughts, or knew about the mermaid traditions, it would scare him and so I’d decided not to let him on my feelings yet.
I was going to wait for a while.
“Hey!”
“Blue...”
“Beautiful mermaid.” Hunter snapped his fingers in front of me, hauling me out of the train of thoughts. He smiled, “What were you just thinking?”
“Nothing.”
“It sure was something.” He said, and I liked how he always read my thoughts. He knew when I was sad, happy, and angry, there wasn’t one emotion that he couldn’t read, and that made him all the more special. “I wish I had some of your powers.”
“What powers?”
“Reading people’s thoughts.” He answered bringing his face close to my hair and touching his lips softly to my cheeks. He smelled of his usual cologne, a mix of ocean and spices. I liked it. I inhaled instinctively and he laughed.
“What would you do if you had the power?” I asked.
He peered up at me, his silver eyes watching me. “I’d use it to read your thoughts. I thought that was obvious.”
I shook my head. “You don’t need that power because you’re not like me, Hunter. I can’t understand a lot of emotions you go through, I have to rely on what I normally believe, but you, you read me like a book. You always know what I want and I love that about you.”
