Out For a Swim
Cait needed some quiet and lately the Titan's Tower was anything but quiet. Pippi and Iris could make a person feel like they had four cups of coffee just by being nearing them. Not to mention her mother was now staying there. Cait needed some time alone and that meant she went for a swim.

She headed south down the coast with Hope at her side.

"It's difficult for any parent to see their child grow up. You've met my mother. She's just as exacting as Arthur in terms of who I should be with. 'A nice Atlantean girl who will bear you beautiful children' she says.

I think if I hear those words from her one more time, I may scream." he says.

"What is his issue with Ty, Cait? Has he ever told you?" Cerdian asks.

	"Ty's a male. That's Arthur's problem with him. Apparently I am not allowed to have a boyfriend or be in love. Your mother won't attack a girl you're with just because she's a girl." Aunt Dolphin was much more reasonable than Arthur. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"No, she'll just make her life unpleasant until outweighs the idea of being with me. Mother's done that to every girl that's shown interest in me to date." Cerdian says.

"Again, I think you two are too hard on each other because you're so much alike. You both want your own way without having to compromise." Cerdian chuckles.

"I hope someday that you two will find a way back to each other. He needs you as much as you need him."

"Aunt Dolphin will come around," Cait said. "I think her and Arthur are still holding out some hope that you and I will get together. Which is totally weird because you're like a brother to me, but it doesn't stop them."

"Arthur's idea of compromise is me doing what he wants me to do and that's go back to Atlantis, find a nice Atlantean boy and have babies. I said no."

	"Yeah, Cait, they'll be waiting for a long, long time if that's what they're hoping for. We're both in love with other people." Cerdian says. "If he could accept Ty and the fact that you love the surface, would you be willing to accept your role as Princess and spend time learning your duties?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I asked for time on the surface before going back to Atlantis. He refused. He demanded I go back. All I want is more time to see what the surface has to offer and find myself. He won't listen."

Cait looked away. "He'll never accept Ty, Cerdian. Now matter how much I love Ty or how happy he makes me, Arthur will not accept me being with a boy. I will always pick Ty over Atlantis."

In a strange way, it hurt to hear Cait say such things. Ty was a good guy, but it felt as if Cait had no pride in her own people, something that Cerdian has recently developed a great deal of.

"I guess I understand your position, Cait. I won't trouble you about it further. When you have a plan in place to save Arthur and retake Poseidonis, contact me. I'll be there to help." Cerdian says.

	Cait nodded. "I will. You should come back with me and visit the Titans. They all miss you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I might do that. I'd like to say hello to everyone for a bit, at least, before I move on. I have a few other people I need to visit before too long." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait smiled. "Come on then. I'll race you back." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"All right, Princess Little Fish. However, the shark behind you has a question to ask." Cerdian says, pointing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's not going to work," Cait said and took off swimming with Hope right next to her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It worked when you were seven!" Cerdian says, swimming off after her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm not seven anymore and you missed my birthday this year!" she called back. "You owe me!" (Reply to this)(Parent)
