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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrva8wa2ts0
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vOnvnPUC7
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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAdGMMcmXU
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8Vo7YrJgn
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNEApRbJ7p
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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L2CwIXHQz
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlHsXT5Y4r
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkn3itlsBa
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWKIn3cYfE
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwPjnGwkef
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRkDAUjH8L
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zHRSjt95m
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyxuJDRysO
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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVIpRMpcIm
Then I remembered.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejEeetB6Tu
"What time is it?"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOh6wEnocx
"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."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqXbc2dNTF
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FfnRSyrxh
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHZdW04uWB
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpXiTvXA0U
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGUjruK9RM
"Yeah, let's go."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2OUptEFmc
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaDTvyze6B
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdFuULtA8X
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRgnxNDsTb
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfoDERQPhY
I shake my head. "Not yet."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6trXmQZ7Dw
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!"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDxNJoMLos
"Have fun!" I tell her.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZT2IWdrN8L
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgrqIwv4nb
"I will!"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80qigSc89o
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgmznk1iK2
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfK0OJ69aS
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9DyXsbSn8
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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtedI8xuGW
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckJAe5aw4l
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa46r688RHo
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEmPvDxkaq
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCNVChr0D2
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?
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRYPZ7Lgmc
"Bambina!"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hwB3tfOJj
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hA7jLGpFo
"Did you hear what I said?"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7e28OKFb9
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEwimynKTJ
"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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2QLJ8BCmx
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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqgS30vYjo
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGsJ7iX9lA
"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.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO5oOVJr1c
He nods. "I understand."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuPO5Y5S4U
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxVSMWslDM
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61E97XpupW
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
