At the slightest movement of her hand up his leg, Sarah shifted closer to John on the rock. She leaned her head against his shoulder in a possessive sort of manner, one arm wrapping around his waist.
It wasn't like her to feel this jealous, but something about the mermaid, that smile that reminded Sarah of John's ex, had put her on guard. The romantic aspect of their friendship was still too new and too precious to Sarah to take any chances. John had quickly become her best friend and, a year or so after they had met, the best boyfriend she could ever remember having.
"His name is John," Sarah answered coldly. "And I'm Sarah. His girlfriend."
The mermaid looked confused. She giggled and ran a hand over his chest now, ignoring Sarah's looks. "Girlfriend!"
