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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rGFGpOeHi
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSehuIeQ9qm
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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVccu8sTqD4
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuwbdcEu12
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lNcWbYPvO
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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ102uSCaFlG
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0wV26NEOO
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhbXM1zdGT
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKp8DCYL9O
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXsMaNOiFn
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyYMvD4HcH
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQNdyHP0ov
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3optUWG8w
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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnEVLQMakb
Then I remembered.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNkcZgldfi
"What time is it?"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84ncJCoZBC
"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."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKSK7CnFAs
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7O2AS55qA
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRvZFe8K3F
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZZnD9ZNJP
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf1jXFFarr
"Yeah, let's go."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz4zuO9oPJ
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX0iZvfCRG
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod8u3vMnGa
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0CpSWIyPq

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyCd7z8pXv
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78ZhPu9IOx
I shake my head. "Not yet."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp3FWCq1Td
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!"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFjCWmKCvJ
"Have fun!" I tell her.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpgFo08Vdr
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTCWzmu6Wk
"I will!"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZeVJ4pd7R
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sI20tDIIi
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡue3rQTjtia
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rfXVtXagp
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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2Bfm0HcSJ
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSpHLa5iwF
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U1yUMmRqK
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9uKVh25tC
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu98AnOEInJ
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?
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPsvPyTx5k
"Bambina!"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4RDUjgETh
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJIIBvc6C7
"Did you hear what I said?"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCmlNDY4cL
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3J4VSeTV1
"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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGoJyxLKwd
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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aEaysNP8O
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5NA4rsIPn
"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.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUtmFGww6Y
He nods. "I understand."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHN2FmRiiR
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQrz2yfxCN
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
583Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6I87nWaxiF
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
