After awhile father and mother were coming by. "Hello mom and dad. Are you read for a talk?" Mom nodded. "First mom. You know Nova and his brother Teo right? They visited a few times at work." "Yes its good to see you again." Said mom. "Well Nova and I are dating now mom. Dad already knows. It was when I was a mermaid for a year we got close." "Oh well congratulations. Take care of our daughter Nova." "I will. I have been for quite some time now since we were kids." "Ok, Ok lets get down to the serious business now." I said. So I told them about the deal I made with the organization and that I would take care of her. I would take her to the place I was going in a couple of days. "I see. Well thank you Zee. Are you sure you want to do this? I mean you have a life now with your boyfriend. You sure you can afford to protect me?" "Mom its fine. Its fine with Nova. Right Nova?" "Yeah. Nothing has changed. The only difference is that we are keeping your mom safe." Said Nova. "Hey Teo is the place done yet?" "What place? Oh that place. Yeah it is." "Ok good. Are you coming with us Teo?" "Yeah I will then I have to head over to see my girlfriend. I haven't seen her for a year you know." "Ok then we will try to be fast." I said. "Father do you have time to see what we have planned?" "Yeah of course." So we all got in Nova's car. I sat back with my parents and Teo sat in the passenger side.
We finally got to Nova's house, and Nova said, "Lets head in the back. I have a surprise." So we all followed Nova and saw a house. "Nova this is…." "Yes it's a house. Follow me." So we all followed him inside the house and showed everyone around. "Nadine do you like it?" "Yes but why?" "This is going to be your new house. It will be hard to protect you where you are living now." "So what do you think mom?" "Well I think it will be some getting used to. Its nice." "Good. Well if you need to make any changes let us know." Said Nova. "Oh thank you." "Father what are your plans?" I asked him. "What do you mean?" said Father. "Well mom is back. Its most likely I won't be the princess. Do you have a successor? I mean mom is back I assumed you would want to live with her. I'm sorry if I'm being too nosy." "No its fine Zee. I understand that you are curious. Its something your mom and I will have to talk about. Plus nothing can happen for awhile anyway. Even if I was to return to the surface, I have a lot of things to take care of as king before I can." "Well ok. Enjoy your time with mom for a bit. We will be heading in Nova's house." "I'll be heading home to see my girlfriend now. See you guys later." "Oh thank you Teo. Tell her I say hi." I said. "Ok will do." So he got in his car and headed home.
"Ok well. Mom and Dad you are welcome to come inside when your ready. Have fun with your time alone." "Thank you Zee. For everything." "Its fine mom." So we headed to Nova's house.
"So what did you think?" "Well first why did you build the house? How did you know?" "Well I didn't. I just wanted to build a guest house for awhile so I did it. I never would have guessed it would be used so soon. I'm glad it did." I snuggled up to Nova and said, "Nova? Do you think mom and dad are going to be ok? I mean its been 18 years since they have seen each other." "Yeah I think they will be fine. As for your father retiring as king I don't know. He may need my help if he decides too. So I may be gone for awhile." "That's fine. I eventually have to get back to work." "You sure you want to continue? I mean its been a year you will probably tire yourself out quicker." "Maybe your right. I will see how practice goes and if its too tiring I will just have to tell my fans I'm retiring. I will do my last show with my fans favorite dances like the last time." "What will you do after your done dancing?" "Well I will do it just for fun. As for work I'm not sure. I guess maybe I will talk to the man in charge and sign up to be moms body guard." "Haha. Well your job is to protect her after all. Why now get paid for it right?" "Yeah that's what I was thinking. Oh that reminds me. I have to call her."
"Hey mom. I wanted to ask you something. I was thinking of doing my last show with some requests for dancing. I was thinking of asking the boss to sign up as your body guard. What do you think?" "Are you sure you want to stop dancing?" "Well I won't stop dancing. I will only do it for fun at parties and at home." "If that's what you want Zee. I will support it." "Thanks mom. I will see you guys later then." So we said goodbye and then I said, "Nova mom said she supported me in my idea." "Well that's always good." "Yeah it is." I hugged Nova unexpectedly and squeezed him. "Woah Zee. Are you feeling ok?" "Yes I'm fine." I said with my voice cracking up. "You don't sound fine. You sound like your crying." "I'm fine. I am just so happy right now. These are tears of joy." "Oh well that's good I guess." Nova hugged her back. "I'm glad everything is going good with you. I know this is sudden but what about moving in with me." "What? Are you serious?" "Yeah I mean your family is back together and I am here. Plus wouldn't it be hard to take care of your mom living where you are?" "Well I guess your right it would be. I haven't seen my cat in awhile. I hope Christine has been taking care of her." "Don't worry. She has." "How do you know?" "I have her my shell phone number. I didn't tell her it was a shell phone just a cell number." "Oh good. So you have been looking after me thank you Nova. I love you." "Haha. I love you too Zee." So we kissed for a few seconds then cuddled some more.
"Oh as for your answer about me living with you, I was thinking after I got my new job as moms body guard that I would move in officially." "Ok sounds good. Until then I will keep an eye on your mother ok?" "Yeah thanks Nova."
That night Nova took me home to my apartment. It wasn't to late so I called Christine to let her know I was back. "Your back! I'm glad your ok!" "Yeah sorry. I had some important business. I will be moving after my last concert. I will give you and your husband a ticket." "Ok thank you. Well you cat is doing good I made sure to feed and water her." "Thank you for everything you did for me. I will let you know when I move ok?" "Yeah ok. Thank you." So we hung up. "Well Nova. I told my neighbor I would be moving. I told her I would know when It gets close. I don't know when my next concert will be. I will have to talk to Revy first and let her know what I have decided. Since its already dark I would say stay the night but mom." "Don't worry you father will be staying with her tonight. He called me. So I can for tonight." "Oh good. I know how strong dad is in the ocean. I'm not sure about land." "Don't worry he is like that on land as well. I have seen it." "Ok well. Let me find the kitty and we can cuddle on the couch and watch a movie with popcorn." "Haha ok sure." I got the popcorn in and Nova watched it while I looked for the kitty. "There you are you little rascal." I said. "You like to hide in that corner don't you." "Meow." "Don't meow to me missy." "Haha that's cute. Scolding a cat." "Well I haven't seen her for a year and she meow's at me." "Maybe she's saying hi." "Well whatever. You got the popcorn?" "Yeah I do. Its in a bowl." So I sat down with the cat and Nova sat next to me with the popcorn. I got the remote and turned on a movie. We usually like mystery or action movies. I turned on a movie and we chilled.
Zee fell asleep halfway through the movie. When the movie was over Nova saw Zee was asleep and put the cat down and carried Zee to the bedroom. "Hmm. Nova? Is the movie over?" "Haha Yeah just got over." Then he finally laid her on the bed and kissed her cheek. "Goodnight Zee." "Is that all?" I said. "I'm awake now." "Haha is that so." "Yes." I pretending to be grumpy. "Ok then want a goodnight kiss on the lips?" Nova said Jokingly. "Yes I do." So he kissed me on the lips and it got deeper and deeper until I was out of breath and you know where that eventually led too then after that passionate time we fell asleep.
The next morning I was tired from that night. I didn't feel like doing anything. I woke up with Nova still sleeping next to me. I looked at him and smiled. I loved admiring his face. He looked like an innocent little boy when he slept. Hehe. I kissed him on the cheek and he woke up. "Hmm. Zee." "Oh sorry did I wake you?" "Its fine. I need to get up anyway. How are you feeling Zee?" "A little tired. After I rest a little more I'll contact Revy then I will go over and tell her what I plan on doing." "You know she might be a little upset." Said Nova. "Yeah well she's tough. She will get over it. Plus its not that I am saying goodbye. I am just changing jobs. I plan on being moms body guard till the day one of us dies." "Haha yeah that's a good way to put it. Theres no saying who will die first. Being a bodyguard could mean they will die first. No one knows the future." "Y-yeah that's true." "Are you ok Zee? You stuttered there a minute." "Yeah I'm fine. I'm going to get dressed and have some breakfast." "Ok Zee." They both got dressed and headed to the kitchen. Zee made some French toast and eggs for breakfast. "Haha are you planning on having a food fight this morning?" "What? No! We are not kids anymore. Plus I have to call Revy still." "Ok OK Calm down I was just kidding." He kissed my forehead. I brought the food to the table and we ate.
"Nova how long have we known each other now?" "Well lets see. We met each other when you were 5 now you are 18 so 13 years I would think. Why? What are you thinking?" "Nothing. I was curious." "Are you sure your ok? Your not acting like yourself." "I'm fine. Its nothing. I will tell you when I am ready ok?" "Whatever it is don't worry about it ok? I'm here for you if you need me." "Thanks Nova. I love you." "I love you too." So we finished eating and it was time for Nova to leave. "Ok Well I better go check on your parents." "Let me walk you to the door Nova." "Ok sure." I walked him to the door and gave him a kiss. "Ok well see you soon. Give me a call when you get home and let me know how mom and dad are ok?" "I will Zee. Take care with Revy and good luck." "Hehe. Thanks Nova. I think I'll need it." So he left and I closed the door.
I crashed on my bed. "(Sigh) Kitty you are so lucky you don't have a care in the world." I got up and called Revy. "Hey Revy I'm ready when you are to pick me up. I have something important to tell you." "OK I'll be right there then." "Ok bye." Then we hung up. "Now I wait for Revy."
Awhile later there was a knock at my door. (Knock Knock) I grabbed my purse and opened the door. "Hey Revy. Lets go." I got out and locked the door. Then I followed Revy to the car.
On our way to her house she said, "You ok Zee? You seem quiet today." "Huh? Yeah I'm fine. Just thinking about stuff. I'm fine really. I'll tell you about some of the stuff when we get to your place ok?" "Ok then." The rest of the way was silent as well.
We finally got to her place and went to the studio. We sat on the bleachers and Revy said, "Ok tell me. What's been going on with you?" "(sigh) Well recently I found out Nadine was my mother. I had her meet up with father and now she is living behind Nova's house." Then I told her all the things that were happening other than the part that we are memaids and mom is a witch and wolf creature. "Then Nova told me to move in with him." "Wow that's something. Are you sure you want to do that? I mean you have been dancing for a few years now." "Yes I'm sure." "Ok then lets decide on your last concert then. What are you going to wear?" " I haven't figured it out yet." "I have an idea. Why don't we go shopping?" "Really? I haven done that in at least a year." "Yeah that's why I'm saying lets go shopping." So we got in the car and headed for the store.
As Revy was driving, I said, "I told Nova once I got my job situated and I was officially moms body guard I would move in with him." "Are you sure that is what you want to do?" "Yeah of course. If not I could always sleep on mom's couch since its only in the back anyway." "If your sure then go ahead." "Hey Revy? When would be a good time to get married? I mean I know I'm still young but I mean I want to at least get engaged and wait until I'm in my 20's." "Waiting until your in your 20's is wise. You should wait until your 20's to have a kid. If you have one earlier its ok. Your 18 after all. You still have your mom to help you. I'm sure your dad has to get back to his life eventually. As for engagement. You can get engaged anytime. I would wait at least a year and see how things go living with each other first." "Yeah that is a good idea. Thanks Revy you're a good friend. Oh and I'm surprised you didn't get mad at me for changing jobs." "Of course I'm not mad just disappointed." "Sorry but this is what I have decided." "Its understandable. I will get over it eventually."
We got to the store and did our shopping and ate at the mall then we headed home. As Revy was driving I started feeling sick. "Zee you don't look so good. Are you feeling ok?" "No not really." Revy put her hand on Zee's forehead. "Your burning up. Lets hurry to my place and lay you down." I nodded. I was in too much pain to talk.
Revy helped Zee in and laid her down. "Ok now rest. I will get a rag to put on your head for your fever and get some medicine in you ok? What hurts so I know what medicine." "My stomach and head both hurt." "Ok I will be right back." So she closed her eyes to try to sleep.
