Being perfect p2

"Uhm do you have to get on top of me in order to kiss me?" I asked as Bastian stopped and sat up, "no, we could always sit up and kiss, it's just a small peck." He said, "I don't know you long enough, so I'm not ready to 'kiss' yet." I said as he nodded, "I understand, but we've only talked for about 3 days, I've always talked about myself, and what you should know about me, why can't I know anything about you?" He asks, "because it will get you killed." I said as I get up off his bed and walked away to the beach, as I jump in the ocean and hand him back his clothes he allowed me to borrow but they were soaking wet, "thank you for allowing me to wear your clothes mr. Bastian." I said as I swam back deep into the ocean and swam into the opened window of my bedroom and laid in my seashell bed, as I began to think about bastian, wonder what it will feel like if he and I actually did the activity such as 'kissing.' Well that's nothing to think about, I have a big day tomorrow morning, I will be crowned king tomorrow then after my coronation I will be looking for a husband, but the male sirens mother picked out for me were not even close to my type, but then I started to think about bastian and my head began to pound, my face begin to turn warm, as I imagined me and bastian getting married, what a lovely sight that would be. AGHHH what am I thinking!? I put a pillow on my face as I scream inside it, this sucks. As I finally get into a position that finally put me to sleep, as my older brothers tackled me to wake me up, "morning little brother! Or should I say, King Little brother." Alek said as I huffed and pout, as the coronation began I bowed to then crowner and he put the pearl necklace on me then my seashell crown as I smile nervously at my big brothers, and my mom death glaring me because she's still angry from me hanging out with bastian, I swallowed the lump in my throat to repent from crying because now my mother hates me, as the coronation ceremony ended I attempted to visit my mother who was in the bed talking to my older brothers, "ah! There is our king!" Alek said as he swam over to me and hugged me, my mother not saying a single word nor giving me a single glance, she was staring out of the window, "um, h-hi mother." I choked out as she said nothing, still looking out of the window, I broke down and swam to my room as one of my older brothers called out to me. As I slumped on my bed and cried in the pillows I hear a knock and quickly wiped my tears, "little bro? You okay?" He asked, "no Alek! Mother hates me now! She won't talk to me, she won't even look at me, even i baked her a sea cake for her birthday and she didn't even eat it!" I said as I sobbed in his shoulder, "mom's still pissed from you hanging out with the pirate. She hates humans, but it's not your fault you didn't know that." He said as he rubbed my back, "why...? Why does she hate humans so much!?" I said while crying more as he rubbed my back, "I wish I could tell you why, but then you'll hate bastian." Alek said as he sighed, "what do you mean? Bastian knows too!" I said, "look, me and the others know the truth behind father's death, all you need to know is that dad wasn't killed by a shark, and mom lied about it just so you won't freak out if you knew the truth." Alek said as he hugged me, "I got to go, I'll bring you your dinner since if you attend supper would be awkward." He said as he swam away and closed the door, leaving me thinking. 'Bastian knows the truth about my father's death? I need answers from him.' I said as I waited until supper as Alek came back with my plate of food, "the rest of the bros were wondering where you were so I told them that you didn't feel good." Alek said as I began to eat, "at least you and the other big brothers aren't mad at me anymore." "Mad? Who said we were mad? We were just scared and worried for you because you just up and swam away without telling us." Alek said as the horn blew meaning nighttime as began, as he hugged me and bid me goodnight and swam to his room, which means I have to keep on look out for Bastian's light beam meaning the coast is clear for me to go out and see him, but the memories of my mom glaring and shunning me keep coming to me which aches my heart, but like alek said it's not my fault, she will get over it, as later in the night I saw a blue light blink at me it stood for the coast is clear and I can come out now. I swam up to the surface but sung my transition song and watch my tail disappear to two short but long legs, (and before you ask yes I'm short.) and walked up but wobbled to bastian and he caught me but made sure to look away, and gave me his extra set of clothes. "Listen about last night- I deeply apologize for doing that without your permission—" "it's fine bastian, I was about to do the same but I thought of knowing you for a bit while longer." I said smiling as bastian gave me his clothes and we went back to his house, while we were cuddling and talking about stuff, I heard a door slam open, "SON!? WHERE ARE YOU?" A voice boomed from downstairs as he got up and muttered a "shit." Under his breath as he told me to hide in his closet and don't make a sound, i nod and did so as he laid on his bed like nothing happened, and then a man came in his room, and my eyes widened in fear as he said what I wish I wouldn't have heard.
"Hello. Father."
