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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuTzvrghh8
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPwIdK0RoK
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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMmSpSTViX
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNS5K3aXgj
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01tETFCRNh
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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVkXVHuuuB
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJe32GFbEn
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSDGjMxEgO
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWJKeg60Vw
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqWypjcrPx
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCVJosjdGA
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mM0xNDBsd
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtxzIdSFaj
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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hOAnH8ZOK
Then I remembered.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNHSDvHYAK
"What time is it?"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHqJ1m3dXK
"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."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxNdsUc7Sh
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6VbSnx9rU
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssXszwzNcz
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDynq7yhiqS
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgPniVwOqT
"Yeah, let's go."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3INAzIfCW5
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzdhVsxL4P
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5vEAe31lK
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoeKc9odVr

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5ikLINaHT
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd6pZI171d
I shake my head. "Not yet."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVS47o4ozG8
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!"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aeGUqCotN
"Have fun!" I tell her.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKP7tqX4Ing
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hB2Ch81cY
"I will!"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3mfjFbcGz
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfDqKtW96e
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCoXkVY46P
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw23uzzCOu
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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr3qlGAK5A
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbgigdv1cu
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyxtu7zIh5
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO4qbudUTt
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf4hTqcQPc
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?
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOlNoRbi1P
"Bambina!"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG2b7ZVXZ8
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUU00hotIC
"Did you hear what I said?"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvb201uarH
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTR6BWIJe7
"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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ngNSwvtGs
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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0PdGyGXgj
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEdcDIAUSe
"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.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojG4KMZHqt
He nods. "I understand."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFN7hAxnnN4
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfpEh4Ohdm
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9yyU4kFxq
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
