Sollux stood in between the tanks waiting to answer any questions the visitors ask. He turned his attention to Eridan who was constantly growling at him. "You keep frowniing and you'll get riinkle2." Eridan hissed at him turning and swiming away slightly flicking the glass with his tail,Sollux sighed as he watched the seatroll or mertroll swim behind the coral. "Don't worry Sollux,grumpy gills is just t)(rowing a t-Emp-Er tantrum." "When ii2 he not?" "Ummm,n-Ev-Er?" Feferi giggled Sollux joining in. "Excuse me?" Sollux looked forward seeing a woman and a little girl which he assumed was her child. "Ye2,can II help you?" "My daughter would like to know about the mertrolls?" "Oh,of cour2e." He looked at the young girl smiling. "Thii2 ii2 Feferii,II call her FF though." ")(I!" "Woah........she's so preddy!" The young girl said obviously having trouble pronouncing her words correctly. "Wha about tha one?" "Oh,that2 Eriidan A.K.A grumpy giill2." The small girl came close placing her hands on the glass making Sollux nervous. "Where is he?" "ED,plea2e come out." Eridan grumbled swimming to the front of the tank glaring down at the small child,whom stared in aww of his shining violet and black tail. "I weally wike you tail!" Eridan blushed lightly and couldn't help the smile that slowly crept onto his face. "Thank you." He said swiming down to where she had her hands on the glass. "Your eyes are a vvery pretty blue." He said softly whilst staring at her.
"Thank you!" She squealed happily. "Where did you find them." The mother said looking very concerned. "Eriidan wa2 2eperated from hii2 famiily at a young age and they found hiim on the beach,Feferii wa2 found a few year2 later iin 2ome old 2hiip wreckage that wa2hed up on the beach." "Awww,poor things." She gave Eridan and Feferi a look of simpathy before her daughter began tugging at her jeans. "Mommy! Mommy!"
"Yes darling?" "Let go over there!" "Ok,ok,thank you sir." Sollux smiled as the woman chased after her daughter. "Wow ED,diidnt know you could be niice." "I can be nice if I wwant to!" "I bet he can't fliirt." He whispered to Feferi who giggled uncontrollably snorting. "I can flirt!" "Oh really?" "Yeah!" "Do iit."
Eridan blushed darkly. "Y-You havve vvery nice frontal lobes! A-And I like your......uh.....TEETH!" He screamed at Sollux causing his face to go completely purple realising what had just come out of his mouth. (Cue the Erisol fangirl screams)
He swam behind the coral faster than ever,Feferi and Sollux laughed uncontrollably rendering Sollux to fall on the floor and clench his stomache."D-EAR GOD!" Feferi yelled trying to catch her breath. "II-II CANT BREATH!" Sollux's face was red and he was now weazing from laughing so hard. He collected himself from the floor wiping the tears from his eyes.
He noticed Feferi had stopped laughing as well,he looked at her tank seeing she had fallen asleep. Oh dear.
After another hour it was time for the aquarium to close,Sollux turned off the light in the room and as soon as he pulled out his key to lock the door Eridan stopped him. "Hey Sol." Sollux looked up seeing Eridan's tail,freckles,and eyes glowing in the dark. "Yeah ED?" "Uh-hmmm,nevvermind." He said sternly and swam behind the coral trying to fall asleep. Sollux sighed for probably the tenth time today and closed an locked the doors. He made it half way through the front entrance when he looked back smiling to himself,thinking of what tomorrow would be like.(Comment or vote for another part if you like it!)
