Kim's Pov

It's been so good having Alex with me. I honestly don't think I will be able to handle this without him. He's taught me so much about being a mermaid. I'm so glad that i'm with him. We've been together 2 months now! I've never been so happy in my life before. Alex is everything to me. I'm worried about the full moon tonight. This is my first time since I became a mermaid that I will be dealing with the moon. Alex has told me that it can make you do all kinds of stuff. It could be cute, but also dangerous as well. He told me about one time that he hurt someone.  There was a full moon one time where he was and it happened. Since then, he has been avoiding the moon. So he doesn't really have that much experience with it. But he did tell me to avoid it and be careful. Alex also told me that I could be a different person and I don't know if that's good or bad. What if I hurt someone? I shouldn't think about it too much. Alex will be there with me every step of the way. Alex and I are on the couch watching tv. He has his arm around me and I have my head on his shoulder.

"I'm a little nervous tonight Alex." He pulls me in closer and I snuggle up to him.

"It'll be okay Kim. Because I will cover up anything that has a reflection of the moon." I kiss him and he kisses back. God. What would I do without him?

"Thanks. You're the best." I snuggle up to him and pretty much get comfortable.

"I know." I playfully roll my eyes and kiss him. He kisses back and I put my arms around his neck. He puts his hands on my face.He deepens the kiss and then he stops.

"I understand if you're not ready for that yet." I knew what he was talking about. I go on his lap. I look at him.

"I'm not. But who knows? I might be ready soon." He nods and he continues to kiss me.  We just enjoy each other's company. The door opens and I quickly get off his lap. He puts his arm around me and I snuggle up on his chest.

"Hey lovebirds. How's it going?" Cleo asks. She sits on the coffee table and we quickly pull away.

"It's good. We're happy." We smile at each other and Alex kisses me. We pull away and I blush so hard.

"Aww. Well we need the house tonight." Wait. No! I need it!

"Why? I need to stay here tonight!" She looks at me very confused.

"Well we are having a sleepover and you know. We need the house." I give her a look.

"Cleo. I REALLY need the house tonight." She comes closer to me and stares at me.

"Why do you need the house?" Shit! I need to think of an excuse.

"Because Alex and I are going to be having a date and we want to do it at the house." Cleo crosses her arms. She doesn't seem to buy it.

"Well what are we supposed to do? Rikki's is closed." No. I'm not staying there.

"I'm not staying there. Zane's there and I hate him." Cleo nods in agreement.

"Okay. We'll have to compromise. We'll have our sleepover in the living room and you guys can stay in your room." That does sound fair.

"That sounds good. But if it's not weird, we were gonna put some tarp on the window to... make sure no one watches us." Cleo didn't look surprised.

"Actually. We were gonna do the same." Really? Why are they doing that?

"How come your doing it?" She looks like she's trying to figure out what to say.

"Well we are doing an experiment and seeing what happens ." I give her a confused look but I shrug it off.

"Okay. Well try not to disturb Alex and I." She chuckles.
