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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYE0p5akct
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaMVYgnhbZ
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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ROLGJn0p
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ybvrtq83m
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeFlYDY8sN
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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJSIdyCZE2
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡistVJartA0
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0mCsrhDP4
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8m8Cn5Emlp
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQy25xtTylV
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX985Opy0np
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NVitid6M4
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLKALtHkXL
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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLhNnwv5gk
Then I remembered.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIfwWqUXpX
"What time is it?"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BFrfabaPJ
"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."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbN3kQj7Sv
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzZUN6mV0R
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLfg1J6605
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJBwLhTkZ6
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacwM4ag9ga
"Yeah, let's go."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxyo4byVHD
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhb2TDcve9
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1QxXSgjf3
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjM0r5KzCcB

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkubDtIVzB9
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzueY6nXAwR
I shake my head. "Not yet."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquQ7JOWQyx
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!"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYfkKQRQRF
"Have fun!" I tell her.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoRz3DzPj2
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZZClfyz9M
"I will!"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhGO5kR0RQ
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcrTuXXOWq
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6bE2e1T2R
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpFKfFlNtB
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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIP85EeHmU
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGbXmMt4LJ
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga5zK1FWSS
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvW4ltbSSnn
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr3un4sxEE
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?
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBuSOKYiGO
"Bambina!"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBLGUuIrSK
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAp9d1Pl2OU
"Did you hear what I said?"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOsviYyXcv
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5lS3XQeUO
"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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrNcFcEHbG
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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNegKXv7mE
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi9VBWrUb0
"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.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dNSVnMGrT
He nods. "I understand."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns4dJCQXmH
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjjdfeQZti
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVKaJMeObB
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
