Home Is Where The Heart Is~ Slugterra Fanfiction

Dad

I yawn and turn over in my bed. It's 12:55 at night and I have been having trouble falling asleep. I don't know why, I just feel like something.... bad happened. I sigh, shake it off, and try to fall asleep when I see the night sky illuminating in a bright fire and I jump up and see Burpy, my dads main slug, flying toward the house. I run to Eli's room and tell him. Burpy then flys through the Window, no longer at Velocity. He looks up at us with sad eyes and Eli speaks up

 "It's dad.... isn't it?" Burpy just nods and I hang my head.

Then I hear movement and Eli picks up the rug Burpy crawled under, to find a hatch door with a letter in it. Before Eli reads it out loud, Burpy rushes into my room and does the same thing, only under my bed. I crawl under and open a trap door hidden under some junk and pull out a similar letter.

It says,  "Naomi, my sweet little girl. If you are reading this, I am probably no longer with you. I wrote this letter to try to help guide you on your adventure to Slugterra. Another thing, if you do go down there I don't want anyone except close friends you develop or people I knew and trusted to know that you're a Shane. It will give you a nice advantage against your opponents and remover, no going under until you turn 15." I sigh and the tears start to form. I just wipe them away and fall asleep, finally able to get some rest.

-Time skip to when they are 15- Tonight is the night. I'm leaving for Slugterra with Eli, Burpy, and the slug grandma gave me the day after Burpy arrived in the night. Her name is Iris. I am currently in class, sitting next to my boyfriend Aidan. We sit in the back where the desks are scooted closer together and our hands are intertwined. I hear him whisper

 "Happy birthday babe." Neither of us pay attention to the Math lecture and I whisper to him

 "Thanks teddy bear. I have some bad news.. I will be gone tomorrow..."

 "What happened? You going to the dentist?"

 "No... I am leaving for good. Grandma me and Eli have to move to Russia. I'm sorry I haven't told you yet, in fact I jut found out yesterday. You are not supposed to know this so don't tell.. Please"

 He stares at me in shock.

 "I understand. I wish I could come with you, it would be better than foster care."

 "We can still text call and FaceTime."

 "I need to feel your skin."

 "I will visit as much as possible." After I say that I lift up his hand and pull out a sharpie and draw all over his hand. It is henna and as I get into it I manage to get it all the way up to the crook of his elbow (8th down on mobile and 4th on computer (i think) it is basically a flower thing on his elbow with a squiggly arrow running down his arm and hand- )The bell suddenly rings and we pack up, and walk out together with our hands together and I am pressed up against his body. We go to lunch and sit down at a two seater after we grab some food. I try to start a conversation by saying

 "Grandma told me I could get 3 tattoos of my choosing last month. I wanted to get them with you, and maybe if you wanted, we could get a little his and her tattoo?"

 "That would be great, babe" He leaned over the table and kissed me on the cheek, pulled back and began eating. I couldn't eat though, I couldn't stop thinking. Was I making the right choice? Me and Aidan have been dating for 4 years, ever since the beginning of sixth when we met. Never in my mind had I not loved him, so was I making the right choice leaving him? Before I knew it the bell rang again, and I shoved a bag of chips in my backpack along with my unopened coke bottle. As we walk along to our next class, PE I don't really talk to much, I'm to lost in thought and the day whisked by me and soon the bell rings and we are free. Tomorrow is Friday and last day of school until summer but I will be down in Slugterra with Eli and Grandma, who will go to live with grandpa who lives down there. We walk to the tattoo parlor and first I get wings on my back, and hen we get matching tattoos on our wrists that says "Our Love soars past Infinity and beyond." It has a sketchy space pattern behind it too. Then I get a henna tattoo that matches he ink on I have him, and he gets his traced but first he takes a picture of my art. We walk out together and spend as much time as possible together before grandma calls me home.

 First we share a large frozen yogurt, then we walk around the park. The sun sets and we sit down on a park bench and start kissing. At first it is light and gentle but after we take a breath it gets passionate and fierce. He lays me down on the bench and stands over me. Nothing happened! I swear! All we did was kiss hug and I sat on his lap. After awhile I feel asleep while cuddling. And he carried me home to grandmas, kissing me one last time.
