So, Aiden bought everything he said he was going to and helped me set up everything. I couldn't play anything tonight because everything had to download. He made sure to download the game I was playing earlier, which I learned was called, 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare' first so that it would be downloaded by tomorrow night.

After we set up my new phone, which is a LG thinQ G7, the first thing he did was add his name in the contacts. He informed me that the more I play the phone, the more I'll learn about it. It was a cute phone. He even bought a case to put on it 'just incase it gets dropped' his words.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBywkwPgAT9
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6LuxUOAWx
We stayed up and watched a movie before getting to work on some newspapers to find my parents. I showed him the locket I found with my last name and Aiden says I look a lot like my mother.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡik5vnV20SB
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhXnW5Slpr
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXFT1lYSEv
We search for a few hours before I sigh and toss the papers in front of me. This was aggravating. Why would anyone put out an amber alert about their mermaid child? They would obviously know that I would be in the water.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5IBTWncbx
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGGusyVU8S
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbzAQLjjug
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn5iip3LmB
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlmh03TP5c
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5I8htUkl6
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbLrJAcogU
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1mPnssiLb
I throw a balled up piece of paper and smack him directly in the forehead. His mouth dropped open and I smirk back at him.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxT3XHrbHN
Then I remembered.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25qe0xb12C
"What time is it?"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkEaVDmZLo
"You know your phone has the time on it." Aiden teases as he picks up his phone to check. "It's almost six. So, we should get you back to the water. I'll try to find something about your parents today."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYuMeKkO7j
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb8XyyN4LH
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXu94DBXZX
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zuowzo43E
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYsNZnKHx5
"Yeah, let's go."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1B3JafPVr
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgadqo7YH0V
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieyNBDYGiD
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqHji1dUKi

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1bPIdUV1B
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRoXdonPZU
I shake my head. "Not yet."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM2uUJ8be4
Aqua hugs me once again before saying. "I actually have to go so I'll see you later today, okay? Marcus asked me out and I said yes!"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W28jKEeqG
"Have fun!" I tell her.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt0bv2bL6W
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBBNXAS1oG
"I will!"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTm9rOuHgh
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTaFbHBNCr
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4TT63Yzto
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIEzqHX20M
He grabs my hand and we swim out of the gates to their little underwater town. We don't swim to far away before we get to where he was taking me.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyeMpkcas1
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5Y97v3qIa
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJBgNRzMtn
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe46SQjPfqV
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsc9eQXd4C
He chuckles before turning his body to face me. I don't say anything as I look up at the sky, mainly wondering what Aiden is up to. Did he find anything on my parents? Does he miss me like I miss him?
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0fIxwyUfw
"Bambina!"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocYpXyiX4J
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bfj1E5Uj4
"Did you hear what I said?"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNoEgo9ps4
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe34of6qHf9
"I was saying, that I like you, Bambina. You're beautiful, your funny, you like to eat and that's hot, I just... I know its selfish, but I don't want you to break the curse." Aquarius tells me.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3dHoRtGTD
I sit up and look down at him in shock. I honestly didn't know what to say to his words. At first, yes, I questioned whether or not I wanted to break the curse but after spending the night with Aiden after not seeing him for a whole month, I realized that I didn't want to be a mermaid anymore. I enjoy spending time with Aiden and eventually, he's not going to want to hang out with me anymore. He's going to grow up and fall in love and forget all about me. He won't be able to just leave all night long to come hang out with a merhuman.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWCHWQ1MPw
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBans6FKbI
"Aquarius, I like you, too but, only as a friend. I need to break this curse so that I can be with my family again. I'm really sorry." I tell him, giving him only half the truth.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX7PyzgR7G
He nods. "I understand."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YUm0uRTKc
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmINuqBjwF
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIObMi8B3wk
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
