This story takes place a few months after the end of season three. Here's what has happened since you last saw them.

Rikki has decided to give Zane one last chance because as hard as she tried not to be she is still in love with him. He has been trying extra hard to always be there no matter what.

With Rikki's help, Zane is able to save the café and it is now back in full swing and he is no longer bankrupt.

Zane fired Sophie after finding out that breaking up him and Rikki was her plan all along. Sophie even tried to blame Rikki for it failing in the first place.

Now on with the story:

Inside Rikki's:

"Zane!," Cassie yelled, "Someone is here for you!"

"Tell them to wait! I'm busy!" Zane retorted.

"She says it's really important!"

Dropping his pen Zane got up from behind his desk. Stacking his papers together he walked out into the café. Zane's exasperated voice carried from the back as he walked over to Cassie.

"I'm coming! Now what is so darn important that it couldn't wait till I was done?"

"Now is that really any way to greet meet?" spoke a dark haired female as she spun around on her stool. Her chestnut eyes glittered as shock registered on his face.

"Kiada? What on earth are you doing her? You should be in America."

"Well first off I missed you, you big idiot. Not to mention being alone with Harrison was driving me insane!"

"Yeah he can do that to you."

The entire café had stopped during this interaction. Everyone knew that Zane and Rikki were dating pretty seriously and that anyone who got to close to either would experience the wrath of the other. Whispers filled the air as people tried to figure out who this girl was. Some nervously glanced at the door hoping Rikki wouldn't walk in.

Neither seemed to notice this as the young woman hoped of her stool and the two embraced. Zane held onto her tight as if she would disappear again if he let go. He has missed her so much and didn't want her to leave again. A shriek broke the silence of the café and the two jumped apart.

"ZANE!" How could you?"

There she stood, at the entrance of the café, shocked by what she was seeing. Tears began to form in her eyes but Rikki kept her stance hurt and sadness written across her face.

"Just as I finally started to trust you again! What did I ever do to you" Rikki hissed, "What is so wrong with me?"

Zane crossed the café to her reaching out, "Rikki it's not what you think."

Rikki pushed his arm away and started to walk out.

"Rikki wait!"

She turned back towards him, tears threatening to spill over. "I can't wait anymore. This was your last chance." She said, sadness evident in her voice.

Seeing that things were going south Kiada slipped in. "Rikki let me explain" she pleaded.

"I don't even know you! What should I listen to or trust you? This is your fault!"

Rikki turned to run out; unfortunately Cassie had just walked behind her with a tray full of waters. As the water toppled onto the two girls horror crossed her face. Without a second though Kiada grabbed her arm and bolted out the door with Rikki in tow shouting to Zane that they needed to talk.

They ran down the dock next to the café, which was luckily deserted today and dove in just as Rikki felt the familiar sensation. As her tail appeared the two girls disappeared into the water.

Kiada swam under the dock hoping that Rikki would surface near her and let her explain. A minute later Rikki reappeared in front of Kiada, a mix of emotions filtering across her face.

"How did you know?" Rikki asked, her voice small.

"It's a little hard to explain…" Kiada started.

"Wait a minute, you have a tail too?"

"…Yeah…"

"Okay well I'm listening then but I'm not happy. Did Zane tell you? Oh, I am so going to kill him" she fumed.

"Rikki stop…please! I swear Zane didn't tell me anything"

"Well then how the hell did you know? And what is your deal with him?"

"Look the truth is…"
