Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: My 19th Birthday

was the day before my birthday right now. It was morning. I always wake up before Nova does because I always sleep before him and he always works his but off so he sleeps in. This time I decided to let him sleep. I walked out to the kitchen and made some breakfast. Nova got up because he must have smelled breakfast. "Oh its you who made breakfast. I will go get your mother." "Thanks Nova." I finished making it and put it on the table. "Ok now I will sit down and wait for mom. We should really bring mom to buy a dog so we don't have to escort her every day. (Sigh)" Then I saw mom and Nova walk in. "Hey mom and Nova. How did you sleep mom?" "Oh I slept good. What about you two?" "I didn't sleep so well last night. Nova slept like a baby." "haha. Yeah well a good baby who doesn't cry in the middle of the night." Said Nova.

As we were eating we were talking to mom. "Hey mom. Nova and I were thinking of getting you a guard dog so you don't have to be escorted all the time. What do you think?" "I think its great. Thanks Zee. Although once your kids are old enough they will be so loud no one would want to try anything. Hehe." "If they are anything like their mom I would say so." Joked Nova. "Hey Nova." "Haha its true right?" "I guess I can get a little loud when I get excited." "A little loud? Try a lot loud. Especially when Revy comes over. Hey where is Aquarius?" "Oh she took a trip to the ocean. She had an old friend bring her. She should be home soon." "Oh good. Now lets talk about your party. Your father should be here this afternoon." Said mom. "Really? Dad is coming! Yay!" After I ate my breakfast I tried to hurry and get ready. "Woah there. Slow down. You have to remember you have got babies in your belly now." Said Mom. "Sorry mom. I want to look as nice as I can for daddy. I don't want to look slobby." "Hehe. You and me both. Lets pretty up for your father. Nova go ahead and work. If Aquarius shows us bring her in Zee's room ok?" "OK then. You girls have fun." Nova went in his study and said, "Girls." Then went to work.

There was a knock on the door. (Knock Knock) Nova opened the door. "Oh hey Aquarius I was told to let you in Zee's room when you got home." "Ok what's going on?" "I'll let them tell you. I don't understand girls." "Hehe you're a boy of course you don't." So she went in Zee's room.

"Ok what's going on?" Said Aquarius. "Oh Aquarius we need some tips. Dad is going to be here this afternoon and mom and I want to look pretty for him." "I got just the thing for your mom. I have just the thing for you too. Be right back." She grabbed a couple dresses out of her bag and brought them to Zee and her mom. "Ok here we are. For your mom. For you." "Wow pretty! Its perfect." I said. I put the dress on and looked in the mirror. "Hmph. My belly is a little big." I said. "Yes but your having babies." Now lets style your hair and do your makeup. You too mom." So we let Aquarius do our hair and makeup. "Ok. Done with Zee. Now mom." After awhile we were all done. We looked in the mirrior an we were gorgeous. "Wow Aquarius. How did you learn how to pretty girls up?" I asked curiously. "Oh I went to school in the ocean. It's the same on land the only difference is its under the ocean." "Go show Nova. You too mom." "OK thank you Aquarius." Said mom. "Oh just call me Aqua." So we went to show Nova.

"Both of you Stay in the room for a second. I have an Idea. I will call you when Nova gets in the living room." Aqua knocked on Nova's study room door. (Knock Knock) "Yeah what is it?" said Nova. "Its Aquarius. Come to the living room. I have to show you something." "Yeah ok. Be right out." Nova did some finishing touches then went to the living room to sit down. "Ok so I have a surprise for you. You have never seen them like this before. Come on out beautiful ladies!" said Aqua.

Mom and I walked out and Nova's mouth was wide open. "Close your mouth. You might catch flies." I joked. "Well how do I look Nova?" He shook his head to come back to reality. "You look beautiful." He grabbed me and kissed me on the lips. I pushed him away. "Nova! Mom is here!" "I'm sure mom doesn't mind right?" "Of course not. Go right ahead." Then I pushed him away again. "Ok ok I'll stop. By the way mom. You look great." "Thank you Nova." Then there was a knock at the door. (Knock Knock) Nova looked out and said, "Its your father Zee." Aqua looked at mom and I and did a few touch ups on our hair. "Ok good." Nova opened the door and let him in. "My My don't you girls look beautiful today." Said dad. "Thank you dad." "Thank you kind sir." Said mom. So we sat and had a good time with mom and dad. Then it got late and it was getting time for bed.

"Hey daddy. I forgot to ask. How is everyone in the ocean?" "Oh they are all good. Oh speaking of the ocean. Nova your mom and dad are wondering when you are going to come visit?" "Oh um I don't know. I have to talk to Teo then I will give them a call." "How are my parents your majesty?" said Aqua. "Oh just call me Kei here. Im not royalty on land. They and your little brother are doing fine. They wanted to ask how you were doing." "Oh tell them I'm doing fine. I will wait for Nova to see his parents before I see mine." "I'll talk to my brother tomorrow. Maybe we can arrange them to come up after a day of being in the ocean spending time with them." "Yeah good idea." So everyone went to bed.

The next morning it was Zee's birthday. She slept in this time longer than Nova. Nova looked at Zee's gorgeous face for awhile and kissed her cheek then went out and made breakfast. He didn't need to escort mom this time because dad was there. He made French toast to recreate a memory of when they were kids. Teo and Nova planned it. Luckily their parents agreed to it.

Zee came out looking like a mess holding her belly. "Hi everyone. What's going on?" I said in a Zone. I sat down and everyone got ready. I picked up a bite of French toast and started playing with it and accidently flung it. "Oh I'm sorry." Then the fight began.

The fight went on for awhile and Nova's parents came by like old times and said, "Ok who started the fight?" "I did. Mommy." Said Teo. "Why did you do it Teo?" "I was bored." "Get this cleaned up and go outside." "Haha hey we did this when we were little. I was the one that did it not Teo. I must have been in a daze like last time and started it." "Its ok Zee. We were replaying it for your birthday." "Oh thank you Nova. It was fun. Did we decide on a time for the party?" "Yeah 12:00 this afternoon." "OK good. I better start getting ready." Aqua helped me with the bath like always and let me sit for awhile. Then she dried me off and I got dressed did my hair and makeup. Aqua helped me. Everyone was going to meet us there including mom and dad. They were riding with Teo and his girlfriend.

Hours later it was around time to leave now. I got into Nova's car with Nova's help and we headed out just the two of us. I closed my eyes and rested until we got there.

"Zee we're here." "Hmm. We are?" I looked around and sure enough I see everyone there. "Ok lets go." I walked with Nova to the others and saw my dad. "Hello mom and dad." "Hello dear happy birthday." Said mom. "Thanks mom and dad." "Happy birthday." Nova whispered in my ear. "Thank you." I whispered back. After I got all my happy birthdays, there is only 3 people who don't know about me so I decided to tell them. "Revy Kiran and Crystal. Can you keep a secret? I mean it. If someone from outside besides the doctor here know I could be in danger." "Ok sure." So I went to the ocean and Nova helped me. I put my legs in and my legs turned into a fin my hair changed along with my eyes.

"Wow beautiful Zee." "It sure is." Said Crystal. Kiran agreed. Dad came over and said, "I missed your mermaid form. I'm glad I got to see it again Zee." Said dad. It was the first time Teo's girlfriend saw my tail as well. She knew about the boys being mermen but not Zee. Aquarius got in and her feet turned to fins with a beautiful blue color fin and hair. Her eyes stayed the same. "Wow your beautiful too Aqua." Said Dad. "Thank you your majesty. Oh sorry Kei." "Its ok." So we played in the water and Revy felt my tail. "Ew it feels like a slimy fish." "Hehe. Yeah it does. My hair is silky smooth. Want to feel?" Revy felt my hair. "Ohh yeah its really nice." "Oh another surprise. Aquarius can you bring my dolphin friends over?" "I know just the ones. Be right back." Aquarius went down and told the dolphins to come up. They followed her up.

"Hey Diamond and Emerald. Sorry I haven't been in for long. As you can see I'm going to have two babies." "Oh congratulations I can't wait to meet them in the ocean. Zee." Said Diamond. "Me too." Said Emerald. "Wow you can even talk to sea creatures." Said Revy. "Yep I can. I was shocked at first too. Everyone let me introduce you to my lovely friends Diamond and Emerald. I'm guessing you know which is which. Hehe." "Nice to meet you all." The dolphins said in unison. They said nice to meet you all. Luckily we rented out the beach so no one could come. Everyone played around in the water then it was time for Lunch then Cake.

We had our lunch which was a potluck. Awhile later we sang happy birthday and ate cake. Then it was time for presents. I opened my presents and thanked everyone. I noticed Nova was gone. Then someone came over and gave me a piece of paper. I read the paper it said: Follow the directions and you will find me. Get to the x marks the spot. So I found the certain things I was supposed to find and saw Nova. I walked to him and It was sunset. I noticed I was wearing a blue dress. "No way. Are you serious?" "I know you have wanted this for a long time. You probably wished it on your cake. We have known each other since we were kids. My brother was always a bully so I stuck up for you. Ever since I knew what love was I kept looking at you. I didn't know love until I saw you after I got back from my trip. We actually started dating. Sorry if I'm a little cheesy. But…" He knelt down and said, "Will you be my wife?" "Hmm let me think." I joked. "Yes of course you idiot. What took you so long.?" He hugged me then we kissed a deep kiss on the lips. He couldn't twirl me around because of me being pregnant but I was finally engaged to the one I love. Then we talked a bit saying we will probably have to wait until you give birth to have a wedding." Said Nova. "Hehe. Yeah. We can have Aqua's little brother be a ring barer and my cousins little girl to be the flower girl. I was thinking about doing the vows on land and the second reception underwater for those who couldn't make it." "Yeah good Idea Zee." So we got in the water and watched the sunset until there were stars.

"Well we better head back." Said Nova. "Aww is it that time already?" I said sleepily. "Haha. Yeah you can hardly keep your eyes open. Plus it's a little chilly out. Here let me put a towel on you." He took a towel out and put it around me. He helped me up and we headed to the car. Mom and dad were already in our car. Since they had to come home with us. I of course slept in the car the whole way home.

When they got home Nova carried Zee to bed. Dad had escorted mom to her house. He decided to stay for a couple of nights.

The next morning Zee slept in again and Nova let her sleep. He looked at her finger and said "Finally I proposed. I love her beautiful smile." He kissed her cheek then decided to make breakfast. It was pancakes bacon and fruit.

I got up smelling the wonderful breakfast. I saw the fruit and whipped cream. "I know what I am having for breakfast." I said. Mom and dad arrived and we all sat down and ate our breakfast. I had the fruit with whipped cream with a cherry on top. "Take it easy on the whipped cream. You don't want to get sick or the babies sick." Said mom. "Oh right sorry." I said.
