Swallowed In the Sea || Gabriella + Eric

After The Game Plan, Eric runs into Gabriella by the lake.

[TW: brief mentions of violence, kidnapping, murder, and The Order being The Order]

@gabriella-marino

ERIC By the time Eric had left from the Acheron’s (Tom’s side, really) to go prepare for for what tomorrow would bring, it was late enough that the shadows cast across the ground were long and slanted, taller than their successors. He had been looking down at his phone, telling Grim he was coming over to fill him in on everything that was going on— because by god there was so much to tell. It was exhausting to even think about, let alone relay to someone.

It was quiet as he passed by the lake, the water lapping up on the shore in hushed tones like it, too, was tense with what the past two days had brought this town. Eric paused, turning off his phone to shove back in his pocket, and walked closer until he was standing on the bank. The smell was so familiar now it was almost as comforting as that of the salty ocean— he needed to go back there one day. Maybe after all this was over, he would. See if Danny would still be willing to go sailing with him or go on one of those beach trips Grim, Max, and Eric would go on when they’d lived right next to one. It’d be a bit of a drive, but worth it surely.

He sat down, knees bent so he could rest his arms across them and his chin on the platform of them to watch the water, needing the moment. Of all the pain and heartache he felt right now for his cousin, all the anger and resentment he felt for those fucking piss ants— he just had to sit with it all, watching the stead back and forth of the water.

GABRIELLA: The trap was no longer in the lake and yet Gabriella still hesitated to swim in it. The memory of being inside that lightless box still fresh in her mind, kept that way due to nightmares that made her relive it. She didn’t want to be scared anymore, though, which was why she was at the lake. To show herself that there was nothing to be scared of anymore.

She knew she should have probably waited until nightfall, Aquata’s warnings not something she had taken lightly and knew very well she didn’t want to endanger the lives of any of her fellow merfolk by getting caught. But Candace wasn’t in the room and she had no other plans for the evening so she figured if she headed down there, she could wait until the sun had set and then get back home before it got too sus. As opposed to sneaking out in the middle of the night and coming back even later.

Only, when she got there, who else would she see sitting by the shore but one Eric Andersen.

His back was to her, seemingly not noticing her presence just yet, and it was giving her the chance to turn back.

Instead she walked forward and sat down beside him. She raised her eyebrows at him when he turned to look at her, as if to ask what he was doing there looking out onto the water like some sort of lighthouse keeper waiting for their ships to return safely to harbor.

Because, while at one point she had decided that she was going to hate him and ignore him should they ever cross paths, she had come to terms with the fact that she couldn’t just erase her feelings for him anymore. If they had gone unchanged by his confession, even after some time had passed for her to think it over countless time, then there was no point in fighting them. Bruce had seemed to have a better attitude toward him than Gabriella had, and he had all the more reason to dislike him. If he could learn, why not her?

ERIC He startled at the sound of footsteps approaching only to relax all over again when he turned to look and found Gabriella’s brown eyes staring back at him in that judgemental way of hers. He was a bit hesitant, unsure of what she meant by the expression she was giving him but he knew she must be wondering what he was doing there.

Why she cared was beyond him— after she and her friend had pulled the trap from the water he figured that would be the last time he ever saw her. Aside from in passing or from far away when she wouldn’t notice him but he would always notice her if they were in the same room together.

Eric sighed and turned his phone over, pressing it on and going to the notes app to give her a version of the story. (His cousin’s baby had been kidnapped and Eric was going to help find him.) He passed the phone over to her to read.

GABRIELLA: To say that had not been what she had been expecting was an understatement. Holy shit. Kidnapped? That was intense. She looked up, eyebrows creasing in concern, and typed back before handing the phone back over to him, No wonder you look so exhausted. I’m so sorry. Is there anything I can do to help?

There were a lot of other questions she wanted to ask, like if he knew who had taken the baby or if his cousin was okay or if they had gotten the police involved or… but she knew he had probably already been through that story a hundred times today. She didn’t want to make him relive it and this way, if he wanted to share that information, she had left it open for him to do so.

Gabriella glanced down to his arm, a fleeting thought of tucking hers around it and leaning her head against his shoulder came to mind before she shooed it off. No, he probably didn’t want anything like that coming from her of all people. She had no idea if he still felt the same way he had confessed to in that letter of his, the one tucked into her desk drawer underneath all the other random junk she threw in there. How could he? After the way she had reacted and all this time they had spent apart?

ERIC Reading her message made a corner of his mouth tug up— even when she hated him, she could still find it in herself to be compassionate, no hesitation necessary. It was one of the many things Eric liked about Gabriella, how she could put aside her anger in favor of something like this. So kind and caring that it was hard to grapple with that someone could be capable of such a thing.

He shook his head, No.

No, because there was genuinely nothing she could do to help. The plan had already been set into motion, Eric having called the Order up and been given an address and time to be in London the next morning. (Figures.)

No, because he didn’t want her involved with these people. They had already harmed her, their puppet strings on Henry had made their reach just far enough to threaten her life. There was already a baby’s life on the line, he didn’t want to mark it up with her’s, too.

“Thank you.” He had learned this sign, at the very least. (She had been the one to teach it to him.) Eric looked back out on the lake for a moment before going back to his phone.

The people who did this are the same people who taught me that people like you were nothing but monsters. It took me far too long to realize the exact opposite was the case.

GABRIELLA: She figured that was the answer she was going to get and nodded at his reply, having to bit the insides of her cheeks to keep from smiling at his sign language because now was so not the time to be thinking of the moment she had taught it to him, having to watch him curse at her before he finally got the placement right.

Then he started typing again and Gabriella waited for him to offer the phone to her again. Her eyes flickered over the screen, widening when they finally found him again because, again, holy shit! Who were these people? Taking kids from their parents? Teaching people these horrible things about Magicks? How to kill them? How did…?

Her heart sank, an anchor plopping below the surface and continuing down, down, down.

Quickly, she took his phone to ask, How old were you when you learned all of this?

ERIC He gave a shrug, corners of his mouth pulling down into a brief frown as he tried to remember.

I’ve no idea. I can’t remember a time when I wasn't being told these things.

In the short time he and his father’d had together, he had told Eric all of these things. Alongside stories of their ancestors who had protected the innocent lives who lived near water or were trying to find safe passage across the ocean. It had hooked him, ensuring that Eric would want to be just like the brave heroes in the story, too. That he would want to live up to the name of Andersen properly, not just tote it around like a medal that he hadn’t earned for himself.

Then he had died, leaving behind the legacy in the form of journals and books that those before had written. Outlining their findings, how best to trap and kill their prey. (Now they were just a pile of ashes.) The Order had taken over from there— working to make himself into a Squire and moving on up the hierarchy from that starting point.

I didn’t start training on how to do anything properly until I was 14 though. Then when you’re 16 you actually get out into the world to do things.

GABRIELLA: He had been a child when all of this began. Raised from the beginning to believe a lie by adults he had no doubt trusted at the time. It was hard for her to believe the man he loved so dearly and who was as polite as Mr. Grimsby had been would have done such a thing, but what did she know?

Nothing clearly. There were people in this world who trained children to become reckless killers! Who thought the best way to go about their problem was to hop in a boat and lure it to them. They had also kidnapped a baby, probably to do the same with them! Anger surged in her chest and she wanted to ask who they were so she could go tear them apart for hurting the boy next to her, and all the others that had suffered by the hands they had lied to into thinking they were doing the right thing.

And yet, here he was, sitting right next to her like they were…not enemies. He had helped to get the trap from the lake, he had tried to tell her that he had gotten away from them. The only way he’d been able to was by running away, pretending he was dead. She shut her eyes, having to let all of this process without anything new entering her system, even something so simple as the images of the world around her.

ERIC The look on Gabriella’s face had him regretting telling her all of this— but he had to admit it felt good to have her know the truth, to finally be able to just tell her everything without worrying. He should have been doing it from the beginning but he couldn’t turn back time. It was what it was and he had to live with the mistakes he’d made.

He had missed her though— so desperately, he was willing to take this scrap, even if it was just out of pity. Maybe he would mind if she was willing to give more but right now? It was nice to be able to simply be in the same vicinity with her without a harsh glare on her face directed his way, and it was nice to be able to tell someone all this who wasn’t involved with the Order at all.

It wasn’t fair to her, though. They weren’t even friends anymore.

Eric gave a sigh, cringing at himself before his thumbs quickly tapped at the keyboard. Sorry. I don’t mean to upset you. I know I don’t deserve your company, let alone to be burdening you with all of this.

GABRIELLA: She didn’t even get to the end of reading his message before she snatched his phone from his hand, shaking her head.

You were just a kid, she typed, thinking of his cousin’s poor baby out there in the clutches of these people who had done this. I would do anything for my family. They mean everything to me. So how can I hate you for believing in yours? They’re supposed to be the people who protect you and love you, not turn you into a murderer.

ERIC I let you believe I was someone I wasn’t just because I wanted to know if what they said about mermaids was true.

GABRIELLA: I’m not angry at you for that. I spent so long thinking that Mundus and nonmerfolk were all the same. That they all thought merfolk were monsters or game to be hunted and sold for our parts. When you stopped your friends from killing me and looked at me like I wasn’t scary, I thought you different. So when you lied to me that broke my heart. I was angry at myself for allowing that to happen.

ERIC It’s not your fault that I let you down.

GABRIELLA: That’s the thing, I still believe you’re good. I believe that you’re trying to change.

ERIC Unsure how to respond to that, he merely looked at her and nodded, thankful.

He didn’t know what that meant for them, but he appreciated her honesty. It made his chest feel warm where it had only been growing colder and colder with one lost after the next. It gave him hope— if Gabriella, a mermaid, could forgive him, a mermaid hunter, then maybe there was a chance all that was going wrong could be corrected. They would get Tom’s baby back, they would turn the Order inside out, and he could convince Henry to finally abandon them to the ashes as they all fell down, leaving everyone that mattered left standing.

Gabriella was willing to understand other people and their situation, even when she had every single right to not even bother. The Order had been the opposite— there was no understanding of others. There was only one truth, and that was theirs. Now Eric knew what a great big lie that had been to get them to fall into submission instead.

That’s what he would tell her, he decided.

I think I need to be more like you to do that.

GABRIELLA: She worried as he waited to reply, wondering where she had gone wrong, and was eager to read when he finally started typing once more. Gabriella gave a face of bemusement, glancing between his face and the screen as if to make sure that she had seen him type that and he was being completely serious.

More like her? What?

Why would you want to do that? she replied, quickly giving him back the phone and crossing her arms over her chest, suddenly feeling very self conscious. She wasn’t trying to change for the better. In fact, it felt like she was regressing into some scary internet troll who hated everything and found no joy in life. Outlandish with her actions, having been emboldened by the anger and sadness that had consumed her.

ERIC You’re a good person. You’ve saved my life. Twice.

GABRIELLA: I’m a mess, she replied, frustrated. Her lips pressed together and she gave a sharp breath from her nose. I think you’ve been holding onto the image of some fantasy from that first time around. I get angry, too. I’m not perfect at all. You should know that.

ERIC Eric’s brow furrowed a little— as if he didn’t already?

I do. I never said you were. I know you do, and I know you’re scared but try to pretend like you’re not. About your family and home, about your studies, your dance. I know you get overly defensive. That you get very frustrated when you’re late for anything, and that you think bubblegum is a suitable flavor for anything other than actual bubblegum. I know you’re not perfect, but that doesn’t make you any less kind and caring and someone I wish I was more like.

GABRIELLA: She tried not to watch him this time as he typed, and kept typing! It made her get nervous, both wanting and not wanting to know what he was explaining in the absolute wall of text his thumbs were laying out before them. Gabriella turned to look at the water and the forest across the way, the trees bending and swaying to the evening breeze.

Then he gave her the phone and she had to read it all. She blinked, looking up at him.

All this time she had believed him to think of her as his savior. As someone to be put upon a pedestal and thanked at any given moment for saving his life twice over, as if it wasn’t the right thing to do, as if she hadn’t been doing it partly for herself, for not wanting to think of herself as a murderer for sitting by idaly as a mundus drowned when she could have done something to stop it.

Turns out he had actually seen her as her. As Gabriella, just as she had always seen him as Eric.

Suddenly filled with affection and desire, a hand shot out to grab hold of the curls on the back of his neck and pull him toward her to press a kiss against his mouth.

ERIC Despite looking directly at her Eric had not seen that coming.

His eyebrows jumped up on his forehead as he was yanked forward, utterly unprepared for her lips on his, so much so that it probably made for a hard landing place rather than something that was supposed to be pleasant and soft. Confusion quickly turned into surprise which then melted away into Dear, god, yes.

He didn’t touch her (had to actively resist by letting the hand that had shot out to catch his weight dig his fingernails into the sandy dirt beneath and the other into his trousers) except for where she had initiated the contact— the kiss. Gabriella Marino was kissing him and he, after getting his wits together, was kissing her, too.

Eric couldn’t help what came over him, after all this time of waiting for her, of finding her, of getting to know her, of losing her all over again, only to now have her come back. He didn’t want to lose her ever again, not if she was willing to give him this, which he hadn’t even known was an option but was very on board with. He tilted his head to fix the angle, let her nose press into his cheek and deepen the kiss into something more, something he felt like he needed more than air at present.

GABRIELLA: It was supposed to be quick, especially after the initial feeling like she had just rammed her mouth into a wall, but after Eric responded with such gusto, she let it linger. Then went back for another and another before pulling away slowly. Her eyes opened, jumping back and forth between his own to survey his reaction.

That’s when she took notice of his hands, the way his body was angled away from her, like he was trying so hard not to crowd her or…make her feel trapped. It made her feel embarrassed considering she hadn’t even asked to do that! She had just reeled him in a planted one on him! Agh, had she misread this whole thing?

Surely, not, right? If he hadn’t wanted to kiss her then he wouldn’t have responded the way he had…right?

ERIC (Right!)

When she pulled away he couldn’t help the absolute goofy smile that formed across his face, eyes flicking down to her lips and back up again.

He saw the uncertainty there and wanted nothing more than to smash it to bits, making sure that it could never come back when it came to his feelings about her. If only it was a tangible object for him to get his hands on.

Eric shifted, turning his body toward her now and allowing himself to sit up without the use of his arm like a kickstand— he raised it, holding it close to her face but not quite touching. He raised his eyebrows at her, first asking for permission.

GABRIELLA: His smile and unspoken question made her break out into a silent giggle, her hand falling away from the nape of his neck to take hold of his and press it against her cheek. Yes, her answer was yes. It always had been, probably always would be when it came to the likes of him. With a smile like that, it was kind of hard for it not to be.

They stayed like that for a while, her thumb swiping back and forth across his hand, happy to sit there with him with this newfound understanding. It had taken a while to get there but it had been worth it. She knew it would be, all this time waiting for him had to have been.

The sun had long set, casting the world into the blueish tint that came with the night, when she finally grabbed his phone. It had locked, so she had him type in the password so that she could type, We should go, it’s getting late. Can I see you tomorrow?

ERIC Now, given permission, he felt like he no longer had to hold back watching her with a fond look in his eye. (He had barely kept from doing so before, but ever since he had confessed he had tried to not look at her at all to keep from doing so.) He reluctantly let her hand when she made him unlock his phone, knowing she’d need the both of hers to type.

He nodded enthusiastically— then paused and shook his head, holding out his hand for the phone so he could tell her why. I’ve got to go to London tomorrow. To help find the baby. But I’ll text you and when I’ll be back soon. I promise.

As soon as Tom had his son safe and sound, then Eric wouldn’t have the lingering worry simmering in his guy. Things were all falling into place, they just needed the one last piece to find its way back home. It did not seem fair that Eric could be this happy and miserable all at the same time, but so was the human condition.

GABRIELLA: You better.

Gabriella stood, not wanting to keep him any longer, and helped Eric get to his feet. She smiled and leaned forward to kiss the corner of his mouth simply because she could now, after all the times of staring at that spot and wondering what it would be like. She didn’t have to wonder anymore. Their hands were still connected, she gave his a squeeze before stepping back, letting their arms reach full length until their fingers slipped just out of reach.

She waved and then started walking off into the water. When she was deep enough, she transformed into her tail and stripped her clothes off, annoyed that they would be wet but willing to deal with it in favor of the other option. She wadded them into a ball and tossed them back up toward him before diving, flukes slapping down on the surface to push her down into the water and away from shore.

ERIC The father she got the more he wished to pull her back in but knew he had to go, too. Tomorrow would be a big day and the following ones would no doubt be even larger. Grim was waiting on him. (If the missed calls were anything to go by, he was getting rather impatient.) There was much to be done yet before he could settle down and have time to enjoy this.

They had waited this long— what was one more day?

He smiled as he watched her wade deeper into the water. Apart of him wanted to follow. He remained in his spot, watching as her ball of wet clothes landed in front of him with a fwump. Shaking his head he dripped down to pick it up and carry it a ways away from the water’s edge, hopefully they’d be a bit drier when she’d come out later. He glanced back just in time to see her tail slip beneath the water’s surface and smiled to himself, letting the image linger in his mind for a moment, before carrying on into the night towards Grim’s.

It's over 100°F today and we're 9 unions strong turning up the heat on the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors.

We are the 4th wealthiest county in California, yet we are one of the worst compensated county workforces in the state! We can't hold onto new hires because we're so understaffed and overworked that they get overwhelmed and leave within a couple of weeks. Our workers go to Solano and San Francisco County to get better pay for the same work.

If you're on public assistance of any kind in California, but especially in Contra Costa County, this is about you too. Our clients' cases get discontinued and benefits get delayed through no fault of their own because we literally don't have enough people to stay in compliance. Tour food stamps could be late this month or next month. Your medi-cal could take weeks to get approved while you sit in the hospital. Even the Public Defenders are understaffed and underpaid, so if you're facing incarceration your representation is at risk. Rent, gas, child care, and medical costs are skyrocketing. Most of us are a paycheck or two from losing our homes.

We have confronted the BoS about this, and their response, verbatim, was "it's not a priority." Not "we can't afford it", not "we can't do it". Fairly staffing and compensating the workforce is not a priority. Therefore, our clients and communities are also not a priority.

Our contracts are up in 9 days. If you are in Contra Costa County or the surrounding area, or even if you just want to give the BoS a piece of your mind, you can contact them here and give them a piece of your mind.

Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors

The International Songwriting Competition (ISC) Announces 2017 Jazz Winners

Judges Include Billy Cobham, Lonnie Liston-Smith, Danilo Perez, John Burk (President, Concord Label Group), And More

April 19, 2018 -- The International Songwriting Competition (ISC), widely recognized as the most prestigious and respected songwriting competition in the world, is pleased to announce its 2017 winners. Created in 2002, ISC received more than 16,000 entries from almost 140 countries. Total prizes include more than $175,000 in cash and merchandise, including a Grand Prize consisting of $25,000 in cash (USD) and over $35,000 in additional prizes.

The Grand Prize winners this year are Nicholas Miller (better known as Illenium), Annika Wells, Kate Morgan, and Michael Biancaniello for the EDM song Crawl Outta Love Ft. Annika Wells."

Taking home First Place in the Jazz category is Hiroe Sekine (Kiryushi, Gumma, Japan) for the song Nippon Barre. Second Place is awarded to Hayley Lam (New York, NY, USA) for The Unknown Bell II, and Third Place goes to Mads Mathias (Copenhagen, Denmark) for Im All Ears.

Denouement || Gabriella + Eric

(Set March 21st) Eric finally tells Gabriella the truth.

[TW: mentions of the mermaid trap and others, references to murder and violence, but no explicit descriptions]

@gabriella-marino

ERIC

It was not that Eric had needed the full 24 hours in order to figure out the lake trap situation considering that had been figured out in full within half an hour of that promised time stamp. He had needed it in order to prepare what he was going to say.

This was why he had needed the time. To figure out how to word it, to explain it all in full without room for error. There was so much to tell, so much he wished he could convey properly but he knew there was no way he would achieve what he wanted to. Whether it was speaking or writing it down, Eric was not someone who could use words to their fullest extent— but he was going to have to try.

He hadn’t slept that night (how could he?) and by the evening he had finally worked up the nerve to text Gabriella, asking her to meet him at Grim’s address, where he had run from the university to, having needed someone who could understand in full to explain it all to. The man who had remained silent throughout until the end when he had passed by Eric to place a hand on his shoulder and say, You’re doing the right thing, my boy.

Max had been sticking closer to him throughout, somehow knowing that Eric needed the support.

The invitation was sent. There was nowhere else to hide and there were no more excuses to give.

When the text came through that Gabriella was outside the front door he went to open it, unable to help the smile that bloomed on his face at the sight of her. (Maybe it was because this was going to be the last time he did see her.) He waved a hand, welcoming her in. Max wagged his tail, shooting past Eric to greet the newcomer with enthusiasm if only because he remembered her from that summer night when Eric had been in the hospital.

GABRIELLA:

To be perfectly honest, she had not expected to hear from Eric Andersen ever again. She thought he was going to go get his friends, tell them their jig was up, and then be out of town before the sun could set on them.

Imagine her surprise when, not even a day later, he was asking her to come over. It made her wonder what his play was here. To lure her somewhere alone so that they could take her out or something?

No, she told herself. No. He wouldn’t do that. She had to believe that.

Instead, she had made sure people knew where she was going to be that night. Bruce, first and foremost, had gotten that message almost as soon as Eric had texted her. Then she had told Candace where she was going to be but that she would be back later that night, so if she didn’t come back then someone would know for sure. And a few people from dance, who had asked if she’d wanted to hang out that night also got the message that she would be with him that night. They, of course, all sent back cute and excited messages as they had seen him whenever he would come by to get her for their weekly hang out. It sort of made her feel sick, and not in the good way it used to.

She went, though, as stupid as it sounded to do. But she had to know what he had meant when he said he had been keeping things from her and she had to know who it was that put that thing in the lake.

Gabriella went to the address she had given her and when he opened the door, smiling softly at her, she almost forgot the context of her visit and this wasn’t just another day for them. The feeling of something brushing against her legs, thankfully, broke her gaze from his and she smiled down at the familiar fluffy dog. She crouched down to greet him, scratching at his head and wrinkling her nose as he tried to lick her cheek.

When both parties were satisfied she rose back up, looking back at Eric.

ERIC

In that moment, Eric also forgot what this was all about. Seeing Gabriella and Max interacting warmed something in his chest because it was just another tick in the box of reasons why Gabriella fit into his life.

She looked back up at him and he moved out of the way to gesture for her to come inside, Max following beside her.

Grim walked out from the living room, jacket and hat on his head with the dog’s leash in his hand. Max scrambled over, circling around him to nose at the leash and wiggle with excitement. He smiled at the pair of them, waving to Gabriella as he, too, remembered her from the night at the hospital and had listened to countless descriptions of her from Eric. There was so much he wanted to say to her, as the individual who had saved Eric’s life from certain death— but now was not the time.

(What if she leaves? Eric had asked him only hours before.

To Grim, he did not think this was such a bad thing. From what he had heard, Gabriella was a very kind person. Kind enough to have dived into the ocean and haul a complete stranger to shore despite knowing the consequences to herself could have been as life threatening. He did not know of all the inner workings of the Order but he knew enough. And if Eric’s tale of what had happened between him and Henry Charming was anything to go by, then he thought it best that the girl get out before anything dire happened.)

He waved with his free hand before offering it to her as Eric turned sideways, glancing between the pair of them.

GABRIELLA:

Suddenly, Gabriella felt awkward as the man, who she had learned was Eric’s sort of surrogate parental figure through conversations about their families. Apparently, besides a few cousins, this was all the family Eric had left. She could tell how important he was to Eric and this is what made her feel self conscious because if he was important to Eric then she wanted him to like her. Which was such a stupid thing to be thinking about right now.

Still, she brushed her hair behind her ear and took his hand in hers to shake.

It also made her think about her own parents and how they would react if she had brought Eric to meet them. Her mother would think he was adorable, cupping his face in her hands as she looked him over and decided that he didn’t eat enough. Her father would size him up, probably not like him at first until Eric said something stupid enough to break his resolve, making him chuckle and clap Eric on the shoulder too hard.

Her cousins would pounce on him, the ones closer to her age with questions and the little ones would actually pounce on him, like he was a new toy. And she would watch it all, smiling and laughing to herself but overall pleased as he became a part of the scene with little to no effort.

But that wouldn’t happen any time soon, not while Avalor was still the way it was. …if her family was even still there, or alive.

She put a lid on all of that, pushing it out of her mind because who was to say she would even want any of that after tonight?

Gabriella nodded to Grim and waved to Max, assuming that they were both going on a walk. She didn’t know if this was a good thing or not, being left alone in this house with Eric.

ERIC

“Come on, Max. Let’s leave them to it.” The dog agreed, prancing past the two of them to go sit by the door, tail wagging against the floor as he waited patiently. Grim put the harness on over his head, having to bend over to clip it, and then opened the front door to step outside. He poked his head back inside for a moment to give Eric a final small smile. “Good luck.”

The door shut quietly, the shuffling of their feet fading into the evening.

He looked back at Gabriella, swallowing— there was no more distractions left, nothing besides his own excuses if he had any left to give. There was always something that could be, lies could be made in an instant. He didn’t like lying, though, and had been doing it to her for so long now that it wasn’t fair to continue the trend right when they were at the edge of the truth.

Pressing his lips together he continued into the house, gesturing to the living room. Whether that meant you can sit or it’s free to roam was up to her. Eric held up a finger and then disappeared down the hall to Grim’s office to fetch the things he needed.

First, the bag of books. He had wanted to rip them into shreds as soon as he walked in last night, still hot off of his conversation with Henry. He’d stopped himself (just barely) and decided that he would need them for this, instead. Second, the letter.

It was his confession. He had written everything down, knowing that he wouldn’t be able to do so one at a time over texts as she asked one question after the next— so he had gotten it all out beforehand.

He returned with both of them in hand, chest having begun to rise and fall faster as the moment drew nearer.

Eric placed the bag on the coffee table, turning to face Gabriella. He didn’t hesitate to hand her the letter, papers all folded up neatly into a blank envelope. Taking out his phone, he texted her, This is everything. If you have any questions afterwards you can ask me. But read that first.

GABRIELLA:

She peered around, nodding as he held up a finger and walked down a hallway to turn into a room. At first she was going to keep her eyes firmly on that hallway to make sure he didn’t come out of it bearing a weapon or that no one else followed him out of it. But then, as she glanced around to find an exit strategy, her attention was caught on photos. Gabriella approached a shelf that was home to a few alongside books and a stack of mail.

One was of Eric and Max, the other of a much younger Eric, dressed in what looked like a school uniform, and Grim. It made her let out an amused huff, seeing his hair brushed back off his forehead in some attempt to tame it for whatever this event they were going to was. She reached out to touch the frame, smiling despite herself.

Movement made her look up, quickly retracting her hand to cross her arms over her chest. Eric approached her with a bag that looked like it was too small for the amount of stuff that was inside of it and an envelope. She took the letter when it was held out to her, eyebrows scrunched up.

Then Eric had his phone out, typing something. She got out her phone in time to see his text notif pop up.

Gabriella sat down on the couch behind her, on the edge of the cushion, and pulled the pages out. They were filled with his handwriting. Everything, his message had said. Her stomach turned over with nerves.

She glanced up at him one last time, knowing that whatever she was about to read was going to change this for her, for better or for worse. Finally, with a deep inhale that expanded her ribs, she began to read.

ERIC

Dear Gabriella,

I am sorry for the burden I am about to unbare onto you. But it’s what you’ve asked for and it’s the answers you deserve to know and that I should not have kept from you all this time. There’s no easy way of getting into any of this so I’ll spare you anymore of my procrastinating.

Henry was the one who put the trap in the lake. I didn’t know until yesterday and had nothing to do with it knowingly, though I think I could have stopped him had I not been an ignorant git. For that, I’m sorry to the both of you. I know you wanted to go to the police but I would warn you against it as his family are lawyers who would probably ruin any chance of getting you the justice you seek. As well as only earning you a spot on their radar for going against their son, which I would beg you not to put yourself in that position of danger at the risk of your secret and life.

As for my role in all of it, he used my family’s books to help him. I don’t know to what extent but he took them from me for some period of time, long enough to have read them at least. My family were hunters. A long time ago they decided that mermaids were dangerous creatures that lived in the oceans and were going to dedicate themselves to hunting them all down. Which they did. They learned, they wrote it down, and they passed it all down from one person to the next. Every son was taught by his father how to hunt and kill a mermaid.

Point is, I was one of those sons. I am one of those sons. I have hunted and I have killed mermaids. I thought it was the right thing to do, had been told it was all my life. I had been on a hunting trip that night of the boat wreck.

When you saved me, you saved me from more than just drowning.

After that my whole world changed. I had been taught for years that all mermaids were killers who wouldn’t hesitate to drag you under. So if that was wrong, what else could I have been wrong about? In order to find out I let everyone I know believe I’d sunk with the ship and came here, to Swynlake, to figure it all out.

That night at the lake I was trying to capture the creature, but not kill it. I wanted to see if I could talk to it, if it could be talked to. I had no intention of hurting it. And then there you were, saving me all over again.

Ever since the wreck I have been trying to do better and be better. At first I was doing it because of you, thinking that maybe you were just an exception to the rule. Instead I found out that I had been lied to my entire life and that I had allowed myself to be, too. I had gladly put on the blinders and kept my head down without so much as thinking that I could look up for any reason unless ordered to. When I finally did, I found out that not only was the world so much more than I had thought but that I could bear the weight of my past inside of it once I accepted that reality simply was what it was instead of someone else’s made up version of it. And I knew that I could no longer hold you as the thing responsible for me wanting to change. The only person who can do that for me is myself. So I did. At least, I hope I have. I’m still working on it, but I never intend to stop so long as I live.

When I asked to be your friend I had been hoping to repay the debt I felt I owed you in some way. Really, I had just wanted to know you. You were such a mystery for so long that I thought I had dreamed it all up sometimes. My intentions had been to see how wrong my family had been about mermaids, the addition of friendship was just an added bonus. In reality, the opposite had become true. Our friendship became more important than proving them wrong. You became more important than that to me.

If this is the last time we are to meet then I feel I must be truthful about everything, given this chance. I care about you very deeply. I know that this will change everything between us as I have known it would since the moment I decided to keep it from you. That was wrong of me, I’m sorry, but I’m not sorry I’ve gotten to know you as I have over these past months. Now that you’ve been in my life I could not imagine it without you. I don’t expect anything in return but you wanted the truth and I can’t in good conscience keep it to myself any longer than I already have.

I make no plea for you to forgive me for what I’ve done. Any of it, all of it. Whatever you do with this is your decision alone.

Sincerely,

Eric

GABRIELLA:

It took her some time to get through the letter, both due to the content and that it was not her first language. Though she did not look up from the pages at any point, sometimes she had to stop reading it just to take a breath and tell herself she needed to get to the end. When she finally did her throat felt tight and her fingers had gone cold, shaking as they held the pages between them.

The realization didn't just hit Gabriella, it trampled all over her, making her feel dazed and wrung out. She felt like she was in a haze as she tried to comb through all this information and make sense of any of it.

Eric Andersen was the villain of the stories her parents and uncles and aunts would tell their children of. Poachers in their boats, roaming the surface of the waters to lure in mermaids and kill them without any mercy. He and his family were a part of the reason she had to keep that part of her a secret, to hide it away and resent it because it would brand her as a monster, something to fear. When, really, it was people like him that should scare people.

She blinked, not even realizing she had begun to cry. Out of anger or fear or hurt, it didn’t matter. It was spilling out of her now. How could she have done this? Fallen for someone who had killed merfolk?

All that time she had looked at him and thought, thank goodness. Thank goodness I saved him. Now she didn’t know what to think. Because how? How could someone as sweet and funny and ridiculous as Eric be capable of all that he had admitted to?

Gabriella looked up, but not at him, to the bag that was on the table in front of her. Setting the letter aside she opened it up to reveal books all shoved inside. She took one out, the smell of leather and old ink filling her nose. It rested on her lap as she flipped through it. Entries of hunting trips were logged between the pages. She slammed it shut and moved on to the next, finding diagrams of nets and traps, drawings of mermaids inside them with descriptions of how to build them.

Finally she allowed herself to find Eric. Gabriella wished she could be angry, hoping that it would flare up inside of her so she could do something instead of just sitting there staring at him like the idiot she was. That he made her feel like.

ERIC

He had taken a few steps back, unable to sit, and stood next to the fireplace across the way. His arms were folded on his chest, one hand covering his mouth as he tried not to watch her but feeling like it was the only thing he could do. Her reaction was as expected— the harrowing look of betrayal as she finally looked up at him was as painful as a kick in the chest.

Twice he had seen it in the span of a day. First Henry, now Gabriella. He didn’t know how much more he could stand to lose.

That had been his reasoning behind what all he had done, wasn’t it? To ignore Henry’s words? To have kept everything from Gabriella? It had all been because he hadn’t wanted to lose them. Yet here he was, one after the other it felt like he had never been farther than them, even when Henry had believed him to be dead and Gabriella just a vague waterlogged memory in his mind.

That was the thing about life, though. As he had said it was an acceptance of what was, not what someone wanted it to be. Even himself. He couldn’t control everything, especially the actions of others— but he could control his own.

He moved, steps quick to get him into the kitchen to grab the lighter that was on top of the fridge, and then was back at the fireplace, kneeling in front of it. He moved the curtains out of the way to stick his hand in and open the flue. Then he threw the valve to let the gas through, his other hand reaching in to click the button on the lighter and flames shot out before stabilizing with the flow. Eric stood and turned his head back to Gabriella, eyes flickering to the books in her lap.

GABRIELLA:

She watched as Eric ran off until he was out of sight then shut her eyes to accept it. Fine. Fine, if he wanted to be a coward and not face the consequences of his actions then he was not the person she thought he was. After everything, she thought maybe…but now-

When she opened her eyes Eric was crouched in front of the fireplace, the burst of warmth hitting her from where she sat. Gabriella blinked at it then up at him when he got back up. His eyes looked down at the books. His family’s books that had probably been around for hundreds of years, judging by the way they looked and the handwriting in them. Passed down from one generation to the next. Heirlooms to them, prized possessions, ties to the past that could never be recreated or found anywhere else. And he wanted to burn them?

No, he wanted her to burn them.

She pressed her lips together and looked back down at the pages. This was evidence. This was history. Proof of the things he and his family had done. She could take them, she knew he would let her. His letter had said so.

Did she want that, though? To prove that he was the bad guy he had already claimed to be?

He had said he wanted to change. That he was changing and that she could believe from the time they had spent together. It made her wonder what he had been like before. The photo, sitting on the table, had he been a killer then? Only a child who had been taught how to do such horrible things?

He was still young now, wasn’t he? They both were. His birthday had come and gone at the top of the year, something she had been annoyed to learn after the fact and had made a note to remember for the next one. Could she really blame him for following in the footsteps of those who had been supposed to give him a life of love and protection, when instead they had brought him up to be a murderer? The more she thought about that the more she could wrap her brain around it because she had been a kid she had thought her parents were bigger than giants. If he had thought the same, then why would he question them?

Until she had given him a reason to.

He had faked his death. He had run away from everything he knew. I’m trying to be better and do better.

She didn’t want to give him a reason to stop.

She stood up, one of the books in her hand, and slowly crossed the distance to stand beside him in front of the fireplace. Gabriella looked up at Eric, eyes searching his own. The reflection of the flames cast the gray of them in a warm glow.

It all came down to whether or not she believed him. If she believed that he had really done all of this soul searching and wanted to make amends for the things he had done. If he really did care about her the way he said he did.

Gabriella turned and threw the book into the fire.

ERIC

He tried to keep steady as she approached him but his breathing became shallow, shaky, evidence of that found in the way his chest stuttered on every inhale. Eric didn’t break eye contact when she looked up at him, not wanting her to think he was trying to hide anything else— it was all out there now. Everything he was, everything he had been. No more secrets.

She tossed the book forward and the flames engulfed it. It landed face open, the pages down on the flames. Probably for the best since the paper went up quickly. The leather merely shrunk, the edges of it curling up from the heat instead of burning alongside the rest.

Once that one was gone Eric turned around the grab the bag, hauling it over by the strap to rest at their feet. He took hold of the next one and threw it in next. One by one they put them in to burn, their information going up in smoke that was released out into the evening air. (The people around them were probably wondering who had a fire going when winter weather was no longer a talking point.) Then there was none left. Only the ashes at the bottom of the pit and his own memories of them that would eventually fade with time.

He thought he would have felt guilty for having done that to his family, that something like regret may have turned up in his chest after they were actually gone and it would never be able to sit right with him. Instead he felt— free.

Using the key (because while he was stupid enough to just use his hand to turn off the gas valve, he didn’t want to break whatever this was by going and burning himself) to turn off the valve. The flames were gone in an instant, only the dying light of a few embers still flickered inside the fireplace.

Eric turned to Gabriella, waiting to see what her next move would be.

GABRIELLA:

It was cathartic for her, too, to see the books burn and to know that the information inside of them could never be used to hurt merfolk ever again.

Then the fire turned off. Then Eric was looking at her and she was looking back up at him, wondering to herself what she was going to do.

To answer her own questions, she found that she did believe him. That he was trying to change for the better, that he wanted to make amends for all the pain and suffering he and his family had no doubt caused from all they had done. He was a sincere person and it was hard to think that his letter had come from a place of anywhere else. She also believed that he did care about her. If he had been bold enough to confront his friend about the trap, because yes even she had learned about the yelling match between the two of them last night since word got around fast in the dorms, then it seemed as though he was true to his word.

She cared about him, too. But she hated it in that moment.

It felt like betrayal to her kind. To her family, to Aquata, to Bruce. How could she continue to spend time with him knowing what she did now? The answer seemed simple, she couldn’t.

Pressing her lips together when she felt her chin start to wobble she almost reached out to touch him, hand coming up blindly. Maybe, she thought, maybe…

Gabriella closed her eyes as tears blurred over her vision, using her sleeve to swipe them off her cheeks before they got away. She took out her phone out and texted him, I never want to see you again.

Without looking back at him, forcing herself into this decision, she stepped back over to gather up the letter and walked past him to get out the front door and out into the night. She hugged herself, hands clutching at the fabric of her shirt at her sides as she finally let herself cry, feet carrying her back to the dorms.

ERIC

True to his word, the decision was hers and Eric let her go. The instinct to follow her only got as far as his feet turning him to watch the front door slam in her wake, the sound echoing in his chest.

She had pulled out her phone, presumably to text him something— he didn’t need to read it to know what it had said. He stood there for a long moment because maybe if he didn’t move then she would come back, see that nothing had changed in her absence, and would realize she could change her mind.

In fact, the door did open and he breathed in, thinking, hoping—

Max came barreling in.

“Max!” Grim’s scolding voice came first, followed by his person. Max came to Eric, the leash dragging along behind him on the floor. “Sorry, he got away from me as I was opening the door. I was just—”

He stopped what he was doing (taking off his hat and jacket) as soon as he saw the look on Eric’s face. His eyes scanned the area around him, dipping forward to check the room to find that he was alone. Ah.

“She left.” His voice was quiet, more air than sound. Grim had heard it plenty of times before. The boy sniffled, tilting his head back as he tried to hide away his emotions and put on a brave face. “I uhm— I don’t think she’s coming back.”

“Oh, Eric.” He came forward, tossing his things on the chair in favor of gathering Eric up in a hug. “I’m sorry.”

Eric stayed rigid for a few seconds before he loosened, his weight falling forward against him as he curled his arms around Grim with an almost too tight grip, fingers winding into his shirt. Grim sighed, glancing around the room. There were no signs of damage and he had not seen any signs of cuts or scraps on Eric’s face (the only wound he had sustained could not be seen by blood or broken skin), so it must not have been a very violent ending. Not that he had thought it would have been.

The only thing different about the room was the fireplace. The screen was open and embers still glowed among the ashes.

Grim pulled away, holding Eric by his shoulders to repeat his words from earlier and hope they actually sank in this time. “You did the right thing.”

Eric shook his head slightly, mouth pulling into a deep frown. “It doesn’t feel like it. She hates me.”

“Did she say that?”

“She didn’t have to.”

“Well, even so, you could not have kept this from her forever— give it some time. Who knows what it will bring.” Grim tightened his hold before letting go. “I’m proud of you.”

“Don’t be.”

“I am, anyway.” He smiled when Eric looked up, eyes glassy, to glare at him though it held no real heat. Max gave a little woof catching both of their attention. He wagged his tail, head tilted back to get the fur to fall back and reveal his eyes. “I think someone’s feeling a bit left out.”

Eric knelt down, hand unfastening the clip and pulling the harness off of him. “Come on, then.”

Grim stayed back to watch him lead Max off into the kitchen to no doubt get him a treat of some sort, letting his own nerves run their course under the lack of scrutiny. Time. All this would need time. Whether that was to mend or heal would remain to be seen. He followed after the boy and his dog, ready to gripe at the pair of them as soon as he heard the fridge open.
