Ugh its too early...

My friend: but its 2 in the afternoon

...........screw your logic

Btw I looked up an angel fish and it didn't look anything like how I pictured Tikki in the story and I couldn't find the fish I was thinking of.

The image above the little fish swimming with Mari is very close to how I pictured Tikki in the story in case you guys looked up and Angel fish and developed the same WTF face that I did.

After being scolded by Alya a few more times, Marinette was finally able to settle down and  enjoy some of the things the party had to offer. She tried some of the food that Rose was gushing about and chatted with some of the guests she was familiar with as well.

Tikki was over with a group of sea creatures she knew that consist of a turtle, a yellow and black striped sting ray, and a rainbow fish with scales that glimmered with the colors of a peacock.

Marinette was in the middle of talking to Alya when she felt a finger tap her shoulder causing her to turn around. Nathaniel gave the mermaid a nervous smile with a slight blush on his cheeks before finding the courage to speak. "Marinette... I..I..was wondering if....you would like to dance...with m....me?" The merman turned even more red once the words managed to leave his lips.

Marinette looked back at her friend who was encouraging her to go ahead before smiling back at the red head taking his hand. "I'd love to." she said smiling, blue eyes sparkling with sincerity.

Nathaniel felt his heart rate increase as Marinette swam with him to the dance floor.

Over by the snack table, Juleka was with Rose watching her engulf what was left of the party snacks. The dark mermaid smiled at her friend when she caught a glimpse of red and green at the corner of her eye. She turned her head and saw Nathaniel and Marinette holding hands swimming towards the dance floor. When they were there Nathaniel stopped to place his free hand on the mermaid's waist while she placed hers on his shoulder and they began to dance.

Juleka felt an ache in her chest for a moment. The purple mermaid knew how much Nathaniel liked Marinette...maybe even loved her, but that didn't stop her from falling for him...

Before Marinette had arrived Juleka tried to find the courage to ask the green tailed merman for a dance, but couldn't...

Even though she often ignored what most mermaids said about her, she couldn't help but wonder if Nathaniel didn't like her because of the stuff that was said about her. Marinette was a very beautiful mermaid and a very good friend, it's no wonder the blunette seemed to be having more success with the guy she yearned for than she was.

Did he think she was too scary? Did he see her as a witch like everyone else? If so why does he still consider her as a friend? This was too much, Juleka hoped that she wasn't....dare she say it...in LOVE with the merman....

Deep in thought she didn't hear Rose's last comment about the seaweed hors d'oeuvre she just tried. "Sorry Rose.....what was that?"

Rose frowned at the dark mermaid. "What's wrong Juleka? You're usually such a great listener so it's obvious that something's on your mind."

Juleka glanced back at the dancing couple once more before turning her back to them giving her friend her best smile that she can make. "It's nothing.....now can I have some food too or are you just gonna keep eating it all?"
