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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6LZrWMN5d
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLuL3XTmvG
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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzY7R65qs0
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspOj4IGqeI
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4la5MJMATc
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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8ip4gXLBg
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo0fUWUtky
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ9bXVylLO
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGBqfCxLG9
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzcGIU4adf
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUu6TtJDR9
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLCvLyCz8Q
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOjWl4qjWr
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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab5RNykpPF
Then I remembered.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWLMUM1J7F
"What time is it?"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUBP7nFjtP
"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."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd0STbSVxc
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMqjUcCwfj
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpApqf0yzoH
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoRMe7dFGu
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjawqyGAuAi
"Yeah, let's go."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU5O2Mwg7K
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhmQAt6O29
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfmR9VF7Zq
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR08dzlQftI

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwY9WHaepO
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaY3nln9Ib
I shake my head. "Not yet."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUWjmmU2Y2
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!"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyCOJc4u4j
"Have fun!" I tell her.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOiq7etCNl
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlY9IJoAIwr
"I will!"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzmddX7jZu
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc028RQfKa1
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHRr75fQVu
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVgmFWyRkU
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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWXKEloQX8
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLz3R0dV4fC
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFWvLkRhE5
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivr1WbefKb
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbfrCO1Hmb
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?
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFdo6UgxYR
"Bambina!"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmlOUGs1HS
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt85sIEEduj
"Did you hear what I said?"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlDeNOwLkM
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROoPEmIcFt
"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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAtu7YrERd
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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPT7DiDtAXJ
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrG5yTIaHqM
"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.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrrQoffrFL
He nods. "I understand."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNBJHkPIUR
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7TYl4kIBq
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
584Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8EM6JyeSp
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
