My heart is yours (Mermaid Tales)

The king finds out

Aphmau POV:
Oh great... my 'father' found out about me having a boyfriend... I had to keep my mouth shut, now I have to explain to him everything, why these two told him? I go to the throne room "There is my little mermaid." I say "I'm an adult now." he says "I know Aph. So Katelyn and Teony told me about your special friend." I glare at them "Who is it? Can I meet him?" I say "I'm sorry, but no. I said I won't say anything about him. If he's ready, maybe he'll come." Katelyn whines "Can't we at least know where he lives?" I yell "No!!" I leave the room "I can't believe this!!" I go to Tavari's...

*few minutes later*
"YOU DID WHAT???" I say "I didn't tell them who you are, I only said about... us dating, nothing more." he says "I'm not ready to meet them yet..." I sigh "I know, I told them you will meet them when you are ready." he smiles "You... really care about me." I say "Of course I do!" I kiss him deeply "You two can't be apart for a single day??" I expected to see Zane the crab, but no, he's still a merman "Did you make him a forever potion?" Tavari says "Yeah I did" Zane asks "How was your adventure?" I say "It was awesome! We met new people, we saw new places, we tried a drink." Tavari growls "We worked for captain
Garroth." Zane's eyes widen "Garroth Ro'Meave? Are you serious?" I say "He tried to flirt with me..." I continue "We almost met prince Travis! He is really nice and any girl would be lucky to be his wife." Zane blushes "Are you ok??" Zane says "I noticed a pink hairde girl with blue dress." I say "You like Nana? That is so cute!!" Tavari asks "She saw you?" Zane says "She almost did, I had to hide. I also noticed she had a flower crown on her." both look at me "Don't blame me for being nice." Tavari hugs me from behind "Are you going to talk with her soon?" he says "I don't know, I don't want to scare her. Maybe I will wait a few days." he grabs a bottle "Do you need a potion?" he says "I want to learn too." I smile "We can teach you!" I grab ingredients "Let's start with one simple potion: speed potion" I tell him what to use and what to do "Now try" he drinks it "Hmm, I don't feel anyth-" he cuts himself off as he swims fast "It worked!" I clap "I'm so proud of you!!" he comes back. Suddenly, one of dad's guards swims towards us "Princess!" I groan "The king ordered me to get you back to Mariana. I assume these 2 are your friends, they are coming too." oh no "No!! They can't come!!" he ignores me and cuffs us "I hate you" we swim.

*few minutes later*
"Your highness, I found Aphmau with 2 mermans." he says "Let them in" the guard uncuffs us, then we enter in the throne room "So... which one of them is the lucky one??" I say "I said I won't tell." the king says "If you don't say, i'll choose." he looks at Tavari, then Zane "You" he points at Tavari "Are you the lucky merman?" I look at Tavari with worry "Yes... I am the lucky one..." dad smiles "How beautiful" Tavari... "How much do you love Aphmau??" he says "I don't care if she is adopted or if she is a princess, I love her for who she is inside." I smile "What's your name??" Tavari says his name "And you?" Zane says "I'm Zane, i'm their friend. I have a crush on someone else." dad says "It is nice to meet both of you. We should celebrate for you Aphmau, for having a boyfriend." I say "You don't have to." I hear a female voice "Father, did you put the guard to cuff her? Not nice!" I see Katelyn "Who are they??" dad says "The green haired guy is the lucky one I was looking for. The other is a friend of her." Katelyn gasps "You are the?" I sigh "3... 2... 1..." Katelyn yells "Teony!" why me? "Is he here??" I take his hand and swim away with Zane behind "I'm going to ask him a few que- where did they go??" we enter in my room "I like your room, so much purple." I say "It's my favorite color." Zane sees my book "Did you read this book??" I say "All of it. You can read it." he opens the book "They fangirled about this?" I say "Yes, there are not many mermans here. It's weird, I know." I lay on my bed "There is one adventure I want us to do." they look at me "Two love birds together." I look at Zane, he blushes "Wait, i'm not ready to reveal myself." Tavari says "I wasn't ready to meet the king, but no, it happened." Zane sighs "I guess... one more look won't kill..." I smile brightly "We can do that tomorrow. For now, I think we should stay here. This will be my first sleepover." Tavari asks "With boys?" I blush "Yes" he kisses me "Ew, get a room. Oh wait, we are already in a room." we laugh at his joke "You will get your first kiss soon." Zane is about to speak, but a sound ia heard at door. I open it, Katelyn and Teony fall "Were you eavesdropping??" they say "No?" I cross my arms "This is my sleepover, I don't want you to eavesdrop. Now bye and good night." I close the door "Aph! Let us in!" I lock it "Fine" my bedroom is near Katelyn's, I bet they went there "At least you have a family Aphmau, I don't know what my family is doing..." I hug him "What should we do now??" "We can eat while talk about our next adventure." Tavari says "Sounds good. What about you Zane?" Zane says "Ok, I don't mind." I smile and clap "Yay!!!"
