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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkEhLRlzIq
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QVn7wwjAZ
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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDZ8JkEvdr
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjkjBwZ1No
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Q3nwpPAhv
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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ676MMM41wo
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7J2OO10lYQ
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib4CSiKGiy
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqEQQM7GN6
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW9xDit5QD
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ968nozhU4Q
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKEFr9jDAq
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbaUHtJ51D
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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWfFLglZYc
Then I remembered.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsHfw6MRK9
"What time is it?"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTbNQZQEAg
"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."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgLcFFhAlm
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2qMjJt9MH
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLx9CXKIpb
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpVJyaXYcx
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSBkYidqHp
"Yeah, let's go."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJ0t2ZJm7c
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSaDySvttK
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbBJOEsMGG
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLlJNLrZl1

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwpEjSBhrH
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwf434bird
I shake my head. "Not yet."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDtscQPTA9
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!"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMAegH9qPw
"Have fun!" I tell her.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHX7R9RgQY
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ21cM6VAbR
"I will!"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnsECw9BQ2
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS0XvDGR3s
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqpc4szvzb
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWs6MBmbA3
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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4HZKLUab4
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII7usHZ8rl
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq1WhkNsYC
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb5kqJ3ejz
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsbwgWeIAR
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?
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmWJyT521N
"Bambina!"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9qdrXAKqk
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3nX0ry8de
"Did you hear what I said?"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDYZBwAZ75
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gzRnaHmKh
"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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkJbEb4ZHp
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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIN83QdpOrf
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq9N4faWu1
"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.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiTzrwge3B
He nods. "I understand."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ph0AdzcOP
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvHJOH7z36
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVjAKIJgk6
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
