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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimCVJ1iFL1
He taught me how to use the camera and we took a lot of silly pictures together. And even some normal ones.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqAfiGAEkO
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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ263Iuo4TKY
"Do you remember your mother's name?" Aiden asks me as he begins looking through amber alerts matching my description.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEJQOhwSl2
I nod. "My mother's name is Elizabeth Gallegar and my father's name is Martin Gallegar."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTWwwitrdk
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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNHvv4eP9Y
"Isn't there an easier way to find someone?" I ask Aiden.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3fUAB9UPp
He chuckles. "Yeah, I suppose we could look on the internet since this doesn't seem to be getting us anywhere."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQVbJlEk77
I glare at him. "Why didn't we do that to begin with?"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM96yVzOXAn
He shrugs. "I didn't want anyone to see that I'm searching for Elizabeth and Martin Gallegar because then they might wonder why."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfaU3I8tMu
I nod, taking in his words. Then I smile as I hold up my phone.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1B6O9DKWah
"No one is going to look through my phone." I tell him.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI9NyJN2gu
He smirks. "Pretty and smart.. I like it."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9t3LJz9JEh
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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFJBeshIdc
Then I remembered.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gPvsXeezd
"What time is it?"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0lKQmoCuR
"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."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxfx0oTyaz
I get up and hug him tightly. He hugs me back just as tight.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaoeuO6e8n
I run to the bathroom and quickly undress. I wrap a towel around my body tightly and walk out.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENS2biGCHE
Aiden's eyes fall down to my towel and then back up to me. He clears his throat and avoids all eye contact.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhRksMahnF
"Ready?" He asks me. Although it looks like he's asking the ceiling...
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8uYERz96z
"Yeah, let's go."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3XoHyUru2
We walk out the house, and since he lives in a house on the beach, I just walked straight down.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLFm0294Ci
I take the towel off and hand it to Aidan. His eyes widen before he turns quickly away from me.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50JnJrzf2V
"Later, Aiden!" I say as I run toward the water.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BFrF6oSTe

"Oh, my gosh, Bambi! I thought something happened to you!" Aqua swims quickly over to me and pulls me into a tight hug.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Huo7lUGVE
I look over to see Aquarius shaking his head. "I just figured you found some way to break the curse."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVG7xHrefGk
I shake my head. "Not yet."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQkAgLO82F
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!"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXr6a7P3CG
"Have fun!" I tell her.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYs3r7xpYM
She does a little mermaid sway in excitement before yelling back,
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59kOTjP05s
"I will!"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPeob1ticJ
Aquarius and I chuckle at his crazy sister.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfQZVNYotk
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." Aquarius says with a smile.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cOg6UyQ0K
I nod. "Yeah, so, what do you want to do?"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoDOhD0j1d
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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRi1YRKScg
There was a nice big rock that was big enough for two mermaid to sit on, which is what we did.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JK0PKCfDL
"What are we doing?" I ask once I got comfortable.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkbldaZq5F
He shrugs. "Just sitting here."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbId12ph3R
I snack his shoulder. "Well, I know that."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwINC6SDcA
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?
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQKGUakMpS
"Bambina!"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIjhZTY2qY
"Yeah?" I ask looking over at Aquarius.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCzX11lgSV
"Did you hear what I said?"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLaUQobkLX
I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm just tired and I spaced out. What were you saying?"
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAFDFDZQ28
"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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yqVeTHQD3
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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt310nHg3R
Aiden is my human and I don't want some silly curse to keep us from being friends.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlrV1a1cdg
"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.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUmGHZXtOe
He nods. "I understand."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3onMDyosV
"I have to go get some sleep so I'll see you later today?" I ask.
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecTKOMUQTY
He smiles up at me. "Of course, beautiful."
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBypjuHcMf
I smile back before swimming off to get some sleep.
