The Bad Boy And The Mermaid

Hunter

“Hello? Are you still with me? Or have you expired from shock?” I heard Hannah’s voice but I couldn’t understand what she was saying, all I could hear was FOUR FREAKIN MILLION DOLLARS.

“If this is some kind of joke, Hannah, I’ll kill you,” I warned her.

She switched to video-call and I found myself staring at a blank white until I realized she’d been holding the lottery ticket on the screen. She slowly panned it out. “Do you read this?”

“It’s a ticket I bought. That doesn’t explain anything.”

She turned the ticket over and showed me a number. Two-nine-one-four-eight. And then she proceeded to show it to me on her laptop and the winning number printed in the newspaper.

I couldn’t believe my eyes. “Take a picture and send it to me on my phone.”

“If Ryan gets his hands on this ticket, you’re finished, and you have about twenty-four hours from now to claim the reward if you don’t then they will do another draw and find another winner.”

“Why didn’t you tell me about this before?”

“Because you weren’t answering your calls GENIUS.” Hannah literally screamed at the word ‘Genius’ to put emphasis. “Sometimes I wonder if my best friend was possessed to marry a dumb guy like you.”

I laughed, “well, that’s funny literally coming from a person who’s IQ is similar to a carrot eating rabbit." I repeated what I’d taught Blue when we had first met.

Hannah narrowed her eyes at me. “This ticket is going to the dumpster.”

“NO!”

“Alright. I’ll change my mind if you say ’Hannah is the smartest sister in this whole wide universe. Say it.”

“Over my dead body.”

She held the ticket in one hand, and a lighter in the other, challenging me. A mocking smile on my evil sister’s face, “I know how much this lottery means to you.”

“Hannah is the smartest, most beautiful sister in this whole wide universe.”

“Awww. Sweetest thing you’ve ever said to me. If I were you, Hunt, I’d be packing right now.”

“Talk to you later,” I said and ended the call.

Blue’s eyes were wide in curiosity, “Is something wrong? What was Hannah talking about?”

“Turns out we just became rich. We won the lottery.” I explained her, and then added, “That’s what Hannah says, and I’m still not sure if it’s really true or if she’s playing a prank on me. We have to go back home and find out.”

Blue’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Does that mean we could have a baby now?”

That hadn’t really crossed my mind.

“Well...I suppose we...”

She hugged me fiercely, the wheels in her mind were already turning. “You’ll have a lot of money now, won’t you? So that means we could have a baby now. Say yes, Hunter, pleaseeeeee…”

I smiled. “We would have enough money for everything you want.”

“I just want you, always and of course our baby.” She scooted closer and put her arms around me. In a sweet, melodious, voice she whispered, “Let’s make a baby right now.”

I laughed. “We just made love.”
