“Mythical. The word is mythical.”
I study my friends who are well on their way to shit faced. “I don’t know why we just don’t go toBootleggerorRumrunnerif everyone’s intent on getting drunk anyway.”
“And miss Mermaid Golf?” Nova gasps. “It’s a tradition.”
“Do you ever make it past the fifth hole in this tradition?” I ask.
Maya narrows her eyes and stares at the hole marker. “It says sixth hole.”
“Because Chloe crawled over here to find out how mermaids have sex.”
Chloe sighs. “I still don’t get it. There’s no hole.”
Nova’s eyes widen. “Mermaids are part fish. Fish lay eggs. Maybe a mermaid lays eggs.”
Maya shakes her head. “No. No. No. Mermaids have sex the same way humans do.”
“How?” Chloe and Nova ask in unison.
“Mermen have penissus,” Maya stutters. “What’s the plural of penis?”
“Penises,” Paisley answers.
“Exactly!” Maya claps. “Mermen have peni… What was the plural of penis again?”
“Can you stop shouting the word penis at a mini golf course?” I hiss. Shy Maya is going to be mortified in the morning when I remind her of what she was shouting.
She glances around. “Why? There’s no one here.”
“There’s no one on the ground. But there are people here.” People who are staring at us and probably on the way to complain about our behavior. I’m surprised we haven’t been ‘politely asked to leave’ yet.
“A penis is natural. As is a vagina.”
Chloe claps Maya on the back. “Good job. You said vagina.”
“But she won’t say it sober,” Nova whispers to us.
“Anyway,” Maya huffs. “The mermen have the same thingy as human men and the mermaids have vaginas the same as human women.”
“Wow.” Chloe lies back in the lawn. “My mind is blown. I never thought mermaids had sex the way humans do.”
Maya giggles. “You mean the way Sophia and Flynn do.”
“We don’t do it in the water. Flynn says sex in a bathtub isn’t any good.” My eyes pop open when I realize what I said. “Forget I said anything.”
Maya pats the grass next to her. “Come sit down here and tell us all about this bathtub.”
“Who was naked?” Chloe shouts.
A teenager walks toward us. I notice she’s wearing a Mermaid Mini Golf shirt. Crap. We are being kicked out.
“Um, excuse me.”
“Hi, Cindy!” Nova greets. “How are you this month?”
“Um, fine. You’re bothering the other customers.”
“Busted!” Chloe shouts.
