"Yes. We have no clothing stores. Just jewelry." Tara said smiling. "Well we have a garden in the palace, there are a few squares and a spa." she said smiling. "Which do you want to go to?" she asked not caring where they go.

"Let's go to the garden...I never really liked spas...that's a girl thing." he said smirking. He looked into her beautiful eyes and fell in love with her all over again.
"Babe...your eyes cause me to fall for you all over again." he said lovingly.

"To be honest neither do I" Tara said smiling up at him. She then blushed hearing that every time he looked in her eye he fel in love with her all over again. "Oh Lethal" she siad sheepishly. "I fall in love with you over again every time I wake and you are at my side" she said happily. "Now lets go to the garden" she said and lead him there.

Lethal smiled and followed her to the gardens.
"It's very beautiful..." he said and swam around looking around the garden then swam back to her. Lethal placed a hand on her stomach and smiled.
"I can't believe we're going to be parents..." he said and looked at her lovingly.

Tara smiled and put her hand over his. "I know. But the best part is she is yours. Yours and no one else's" she said and kissed him softly. "I love you" she said softly then took his hand in hers and lead him around. They got to a big fountain and she sat down on the edge and patted the spot next to her.

Lethal listened to her and kissed her back just as softly and smiled at her.
"I love you too Tara. I love you too Keira!" he added smiling gently at Tara's stomach. He swam wiuth her to a fountain and chuckled.
"You have a water fountain....under water?! That's so cool!" he said and sat down beside her.

"You wouldn't believe the technology we have here. or how many laws we have broken." Tara said giggling. "Like we have fireplaces with real fires." she siad smiling up at him. She put her head on his shoulder and looked out at the garden. "We will have to get out own house now with a baby on the way" she said sighing happily.

Lethal smirked.
"Well, all you do is defy the laws in science....nothing too bad." he said and stroke her hair softly.
"A new house...but how? I don't have any money....and I don't see any houses on sale." he said confused and kept a hand on her stomach.
"I love you Tara...I love you too Keira." he said and kissed Tara deeply before pulling away and letting her relax.

Tara giggled then kissed him back. "And we both love you" she said smiling. "Well my family has another castle not too far away that we don't use. We could moe into that" she offered. She wanted a house to just Lethal, Keira, and herself. No servants no one. Just the two of them then eventually the three of them.

"Oooh, a castle. Sure, I would love that!" he said smiling down at her. He then began to think, how was he gong to put a ring on her finger if he had no money? He needed to find a job...but he didn't think there were any jobs available down here.

Tara smiled up at him and kissed his cheek. "Why don't we go look at it after we talk to my parents?" she asked softly looking up at him and smiled wider. "What are you thinking about?" she asked closing her eyes and smiling.

His thinking was interrupted and he nodded.
"Oh, okay then let's go." he said and kissed her head gently.
"I was just thinking....I want to buy you and my mom something....but I have no money..." he said quietly looking around the garden, then back at her.

"Oh. You don't need to get me anything. I already have you and that is all I need" Tara said smiling up at him. "But I have a bunch of money since I am a princess that you can use." she said. She didn't use her money so she had way more then she would ever need, and she was willing to share with Lethal.

Lethal looked at her and remembered that she was a princess.
"Oh right, well I'm getting you something weather you like it or not!" he said smiling.

Tara giggled and nodded. "Alright. But I don't need anything" she said smiling. "Ok I think I am ready to go tell my parents now" she said standing and taking his hand.

"Okay, let's go then love." he said and held her hand gently and swam with her to her parents.
"What do you think they'll say?" he whispered getting nervous.

"Well I don't really know. I think they will be happy but also disappointed because we aren't married." Tara said looking up at him. "But once the child is born they will forget all about it" she said and kissed his cheek. "But I know I am happy." she said softly.

"Oh right, we're not married...and for some reason it feels as if we are." he said and kissed her cheek back in return. They continued to swim until they found her parents.
"Okay....let's get it over with....he said in a shaky voice.

"I know." Tara said smiling. She nodded then swam up to her parents. "Mom dad I need to tell you something." she said. "What is it dear?" her mother asked smiling. "I am going to have a baby" she said and looked at her father. He smiled widely and hugged her tightly. "I am so happy honey." he said. "I am too but dear you two aren't even married" he mother said. "But mother we love each other and isn't that was marriage is? Two people who love each other enough to spend the rest of their lives together?" Tara said then her mother hugged her. Her father extended his hand to Lethal. "Congratulations" he said smiling.

Lethal shook Tara's father's hand.
"Thank-you your majesty..." he said politely. He was surprised...he thought that he would have yelled at him and banished him like in the stories he would read.

Tara's father chuckled. "Lethal you don't have to call me your majesty.....Just call me Robert." he said smiling. Trara was shocked. Her father only let people he loved call him by hiss real name. One was thought highly of if he asked them to call him by his name. Tara smiled widely and hugged Lethal then her father. "Father can we have the key to the other castle? We are going to move in" she said and he handed her the key. "here you go. Now go have fun you two" he said smiling.

"Okay...Robert." he answered and smiled. He held Tara close and kissed her cheek gently and ran his fingers through her hair gently.

Tara smiled then looked up at Lethal. "Let's go get moved in" she said smiling. She was so proud of him. She wished she could show him off to the other mermaids but she didn't want to be a snob about it.

He nodded and kept her close.
"Okay...let's go love." he said and said bye to her parents before swimming beside her to their new home.

Tara smiled and swam close to him. "You know it is considered an honor around here if my father lets anyone call him by his first name. Only a few can. My mother, sister, me, two army generals, and now you. That is all." she said smiling up at him. "He must really like you" she said smiling and kissed his cheek.
