When the mermaids retreat a few hours later Earth goes to wake up Uranus. He has to. Sure,he was stubborn,but still didn't deserve to be left to rot.

"Where are you going Earth?" Saturn asks,he was a really nice siren. He had never eaten any people unlike the rest.

"Oh! I think I forgot a shell I'll go find it! And if I don't I'll just get a new one."

"Alright be carefull next time!"

"I'll try to!" I say, knowing damn fucking well I wasn't going to find a shell.

"Ceres are you okay?" I hear Saturn ask before making my way to the surface. I quickly arrive there and get straight to work. And by that I mean kissing him awake.

Just after a few seconds he jumps being very clearly scared as fuck.

"No! No! No! No! You're are not kissing me again ever! No fucking way!" He screams.

"Shh! Keep it down!"

"Keep it down?! You fucking made me pass out! Why should I keep it down!"

"Because the other sirens might hear you! That's the reason why I put you to sleep in the first place! When I tried to warn you about that you didn't listen!"

"No! That's wrong! You shouldn't have done that to me!"

"Uranus! You left me no other choice! I had to do it! It was too keep you safe!'

"You could have told me you were going to do that! Instead you just forced yourself onto me!"

"Uranus! If I told you I'd do that you'd book it!"

Uranus remains silent..He feels so..betrayed.. He didn't really know the siren that well..But..he felt a connection to it! He felt that he could trust Earth! He didn't seem like a bad guy.

"What sirens to keep me safe from..?"

"Listen. If it would have been Saturn you'd be fine,if it was anyone like Ceres you'd be food."

"Why?"

"Because that's how us sirens work! We don't feel hunger like you humans! We feel a deep lust to kill somebody!"

"And why would have I been safe around that Saturn?! Why wouldn't I be safe around you?!"

"You are safe around me! You just make it harder for the both of us!"

"You didn't awnser my first question.." Uranus responds bitterly.

"Because Saturn doesn't eat humans! He sees no fun in it!"

"Then I should be safer with Saturn than you!"

"Fine then. Go. Never come back." I say, trying to act like I didn't feel jealous.

Uranus,however,is shocked.

"No,I didn't mean it like that Earth!"

"Yes,you did."

"Can we just forget this and go back to whatever we were?!"

"Hm..I don't know."

"Please? Listen I was just scared that you'd to worse things to me!"

"Ugh,alright!"

"Can I come in the water?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"You need to go back to your home. The others are probably worried about you."
Uranus doesn't can't even realise that Earth mentioned the others.

"But I wanna stay here with you!"

"Uranus! You have others waiting for you! You can see me tomorrow! Now go!"

"No!"

"Then I'll have to make you do that by brute force!"

If I can't do it by talking to him. Looks like I have to make him listen to me. So,I make it on land and transform into a fully clothed woman.

"What are you doing?"

"Making you go back home. Let's go." I grab him by the hand walking him to the quiet house where he resided.

"How do you know where I live?"

"I'm a siren. Of course I know this stuff." I place three gentle knocks on the door and a tall man with pink-white hair in a long braid and glasses.

"Hello sir! I am here to return Uranus." I speak. He seemed familliar,like the man Saturn described.

"Thank you miss! May I know how come you had to return him though?"

"He got a bit lost and asked me for help." Uranus doesn't dare to make a sound

"Thanks again!"

"Don't worry it's my pleasure." I say,turning my back and heading back to the beach

That human was really stubborn wasn't he?
