Aphrodite had only been gone a short time and Will was already missing her terribly. He reminisced about them together on the shore only a short time again and wondered how quickly she would return. He paced up and down the shoreline in anticipation of her return. He longed to make love to her again.
Amphirite watched Will as he paced. She knew that he was under Aphrodite's spell and knew she had probably filled his head with lies. She had to get him into the water but she didn't quite know how. She thought about it and remembered that he was willing to sacrifice his life for his son's. She would show him the illusion of his son in danger.
Will looked at the water and stepped back from it. He had made a promise to Aphrodite to stay away from it. Suddenly he noticed a small boy out in the sea. The boy was calling his name. He was calling for help and it appeared he was close to drowning. Will did not recognize the boy but he did seem somehow familiar to him how did this boy know his name he wondered. He was torn. Aphrodite had said under no circumstances to go into the water but he could not let a small innocent child drown in front of his very eyes. Will said out loud, "Sorry Aphrodite but I can not sit by and watch." He jumped into the water and became Poseidon once again.
Amphirite smiled seeing her husband. "Are you finished here," she asked him.
"Yes, I guess so. I was talking to Aphrodite and next thing you are here. Where did she go," Zeus asked his wife.
"Zeus wanted to see her. Shall we go home now?"
"Of course," He said leading the way home.
Poseidon appeared somewhat confused about what had happened but he thought it one of Aphrodite's tricks and shook it off.
Amphirite looked at him once he got home with sadness in her eyes. "What's the matter my darling wife," Poseidon said to her.
"Nothing. Nothing is wrong. I'm just tired and well I've been thinking about how to talk to you about something," she paused searching for the right words.
"What is so hard to talk to me about? You know I love you. I'm a changed man. I've been faithful and," Amphirite kissed him stopping him from continuing his words. She did not need any reminders of Poseidon's past indiscretions.
She pulled slightly away looking him in the eyes, "Poseidon, you are going to be a father again." There she had said it, now all she had to do was wait for his reaction.
He looked at her searching her eyes, and then suddenly a huge smile broke out on his face. He grabbed her up and started spinning her around laughing and dancing around the room.
"You're pleased," Amphirite asked.
"I'm more than pleased," and he kissed her passionately once again.
Amphirite was the happiest she had ever been; actually they were the happiest they had ever been but she still knew it may all change and it hung over her like a black cloud.
Since Aphrodite was now after Will, she knew that Zeus would soon reverse the blending and would do it soon. She had hoped with all her heart that she could have this blending be permanent. Now the most she could hope for is that her husband had learned the joy, happiness and love from the soul of Will Turner.
