EPILOGUE (part 1) FOR OCEANS.

Many, many, many years later.

"I don't get why you didn't want to come, the Aquarium is fun" Calum shook his head with a smile.

"I really don't see what's so cool about it" Luke huffed following his skipping friend, who couldn't contain his excitement over his (possible) new job.

Calum was holding out his resumé in his hands as he grinned, looking everywhere. He noticed Luke on his phone and barely walking and he groaned.

"Hey" Luke said when Calum took the phone out of his hands and shoved it in his pocket.

"Enjoy the aquarium, Luke." he chuckled at his friend annoyed expression.

Calum saw the door for information and he squealed before turning around to his annoyed friend. "Stay here, I'll be right back. Feel free to look around just don't go too far."

Luke just rolled his eyes nodding as Calum entered through the door with a smile.

The blond looked around, all the kids against the windows looking at the dolphins and fishes. He licked his lips and stuffed his hands in his pocket as he started looking around as he waited for Calum.

His eyes settled in curiosity as he watched through the mirror a fish that looked like a porcupine, he smiled when he caught the fish inflate itself so it looked like a balloon. He giggled and hugged himself.


He kept walking and looking at all the fishes, he even got to touch a manta ray that was in a table full of water, even a pretty orange starfish. For an odd reason he felt at home here, he always found the water so fascinating and he never knew why, even if he was kind of scared of it.

"Hey"

Startled, Luke turned around with his hand clutching his leather jacket. His eyes widen at the cute curly man in front of him. "Hello?" Luke asked.

"I see you're enjoying yourself here. If you're interested there's a mermaid show in ten minutes" the man said, interlacing his hands in front of him.

Luke's eyes traveled to his name tag on his pale blue polo, with the name Ashton. He smiled tightly at him, "Thank you but I'm waiting for my friend--"

"Hey, Luke!" Calum waved as he ran over to the blond, standing next to him. "I left my resumé and talked to the owner, he's so cool. I bet I'm going to get the job, I'm so excited. Oh" he blushed when he noticed a cute employee in front of him.

Ashton giggled. "I was just telling your friend about the mermaid show in..." he looked at his wrist watch. "Eight minutes"

"A mermaid show? Holy shit, that's so cool. I've always wanted to see one of those" Calum shook Luke by the shoulders in excitement. "Where is it curly?"

Ashton blushed and pointed to the end of the tunnel where all the sharks where. "Thank you curly" Calum patted Ashton's back before he grabbed Luke's hand and ran to the tunnel.

"It's Ashton" he smiled to himself, his eyes going to the floor to try and control the red on his cheeks.
