Hey guys! I know a lot of you want the story updated ASAP, so please listen carefully in this! We only have a little bit of time to write daily, due to our busy lives and us just not being able to write a ton! To do a whole chapter, it takes a few days of writing and such and editing to make this story possible :-) So please know that commenting "Update!!" won't make it go faster! I might update faster if I get like x amount of votes per chapter, and FOLLOW ME!

Tal's hand tangled into mine as we strolled the sidewalk, walking past diner after diner. "Want to grab something to eat?" He asked, and I nodded. "Okay, Aria.....where?" He said softly, looking around for a place fit for a Queen. Also known as me. "Here." I said, striding into the first place I could see. I didn't really care where we ate, as long as it was local and as long as it was food. "I've never been here before......" Tal whispered to me, keeping my hand close to his hip. "Good afternoon! How many will we be serving this fine day?" A soft accented voice scared the crap out of me. Jumping suddenly, I returned with a smile. "Two." Tal said, gripping the back of me. "Are you okay?" He chuckled softly into my ear, and I laughed back and nodded. "Okay! What can I get you two for drinks?" I think she was Australian. "Water, please." I said gratefully. "Same here." Tal replied to her, and she nodded. "I'll give you two a minute to glare at your menus, then!" No, I think she was British. "Thank you!" Tal and I said at the same time, resulting in us both laughing. "This place is cozy!" I whispered, pretty happy we were here. A few people spotted the tables around us, but they were older people who really didn't look familiar at all. Thankfully no fans. Picking up the menu, I was nose-deep into the food. F O O D!!!

I felt pregnant, literally. I had eaten my meal plus some of Tal's because apparently he doesn't like eating a lot. I could've eaten both of our meals plus a dessert, but it probably wasn't wise. "That was so good!" I said excitedly. Tal nodded. "It was, especially with you there." He gushed. What a cutie. "Why are you always so gushy to me, you softie!" I fake punched him in the arm and stuck my tongue out. "So you want me to be mean to you? Yeah, How To Lose Your Girlfriend 101." He teased. I nodded. "I'm tired already." I said dramatically, putting my hand to my forehead and reaching out to Tal who walked ahead. "Tal, please, save me." I whispered, squatting a bit. "Aria, you're going to make a scene." He shook his head and laughed. "But I like attention." I smirked, and he shook his head. "Not on me." He reminded me. I was surprised Tal didn't get noticed more, but he did like wearing hats a ton outside of his house. Even if he was noticed, it wasn't all common fangirl, the girls were very polite and would even sometimes ask for a hug. Most of the time it was just an autograph or a picture. Walking up next to my man, I connected hands with him again. "Where to now?" He asked, and I shrugged. "I dunno." I said in a high pitched voice, and he chuckled. "How about we go look at......" He widened his eyes. "Antiques!" He said quickly and rushed me into the store on our right. "Woah, there, boy!" I gripped his arm as he pulled me into the store. "What's the matter?" I whispered, knowing there was something up with him. "Natalie, outside." He whispered harshly into my ear. That b*tch was back!? Peeking outside the display window, I saw Natalie walking by, her hair flowing behind her and her hand gripping her larger phone. Before Tal could stop me, I briskly strode outside. "What are you doing here?" I said loudly, Natalie stopping and turning around. "What, so now I can't be strolling around town? Stop being a control-freak, Aria." Natalie scoffed and walked off. I shook my head and walked back to Tal, who was delighted to find some cute antique sets. "How'd it go?" He asked without looking towards me. "Fabulous." I replied with a fake smile. Tal then began to shake his head. "I should've known that girl was trouble." He blamed himself, and I gripped his built arm. "Tal, don't blame yourself. Let's go take some pictures by the fountain!" I smiled and we both nodded and walked towards the town center. The steamy day made me grown, sweat dripping down my forehead. "This sun is going to kill me." I took off my cardigan and stuffed it into my bag before skipping up to the fountain. Leaning my bag up against the fountain, I then walked over to Tal. "Here." I handed him my phone and posed happily in front of the flowing fountain. I could feel the cool rush of wind hit me, that felt so nice! Standing on the edge, I had to step up first. "I wouldn't step up, Aria! That could be dangerous." Tal warned me, putting his arm out to stop me. "Tal, I am not a little kid, I am fine." I said reassuringly, stepping back to withstand my correct posture. Tal was right, it was pretty dangerous. My back heel slipped, and I went piling into the shallow water. "Aria!" Tal called out, and his voice was blacked out by my head going underwater. Sitting up in the water, I choked on the water and tried to catch my breath.

"Stupid move." I told myself, standing up and putting my arms out. Ugh, I was soaked! Thankfully Tal had my phone, and my bag was leaning up against the fountain. "I got a photo of that." Tal was laughing too hard at the screen of my phone, and I angrily puffed out a loud sigh. "Great...." I groaned. At least I wasn't hot anymore. Some people gathered around, some asking me if I was alright. Snatching my bag, I swiped my phone from Tal's hands, and deleted the picture. "Don't need that going anywhere." I whispered to myself, starting to walk down the sidewalk, back to my complex. It was a mile or so past Tal's, but I didn't mind the stroll, even though my panties were soaked to the brim. "Hey, you okay?" Tal asked, almost 1 mile into our trip. I had been completely quiet. "Yeah, I am good." I nodded, slipping the strap of my bag further onto my shoulder. "Let's go get you changed." He grabbed my free hand, since my phone had been returned to my precious hip bag. "Okay." I nodded, my hair still drying from the accident. "Maybe we could go swimming." He hip bumped me softly to get my attention, and I nodded. "Maybe." I smiled.

Hey guys! I was thinking I could go like 4-5 more chapters, have a big plot twist, and end the story? Maybe make a sequel but that could make room for another Tal Fishman story ;-)

Also, whoever asked for Aria to fall in a fountain. Wapoosh! You got your wish! Make sure to follow me to make me release faster! That's a promise ^ Muah xx
