Eric paced as he waited for his ever so faithful servant to come to him. He looked out over the water, his kingdom, the place they always met by. She would bring him good news, or it would be bad for her. If she tried to run, he'd turn her back into an octopus and hoped that she wasn't near the water so she couldn't survive.
"Master." Ursula said, walking up to him. He turned around to look at her. She wasn't dressed in the dress like she was last time. She wore a pair of jeans, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology t-shirt, and flip flops. "He has successfully turned." She didn't sound too happy about it.
"Finally." He said. "Where is he?"
"I don't know." She said quietly. Eric raised his hand and slapped her. She fell to the ground, holding her cheek and crying.
"What do you mean you don't know where he is?" Eric hissed at her. She looked up at him, tears streaming down her face. "You lost Arial you little bitch! She escaped and married that man! And now you lost the new one. Do you really want me to take it out on Morganna?"
"You wouldn't!" Ursula cried. "She's my little sister! You wouldn't!"
"But I would." He said. "Find him, or sweet little Morganna pays the price next." With that, he left. Ursula set on the ground, sobbing.
Eliot pulled off his shirt and pants, showing a pair of swim trunks. He pulled his hair up into a ponytail, because it was a bitch trying to brush through it after it had been wet. He was going to swim out with Sam, just to make sure he actually got into the water.
"Is anyone else going in with us?" Eliot asked.
"Nah. This is your thing." Hardison said. Eliot nodded and got Sam out of the backseat, scooping him up into his arms. "You take care Sam." Hardison said. "If I had a water proof cell phone for you to use, I'd give it to you." Sam smiled.
"I'll come with Eliot sometime." Parker sad as Eliot carried him towards the water. "Maybe Sophie and me will come sunbathe sometimes and have a picnic with you."
"I'd love that." Sam said. Dean watched his brother head towards the water. He didn't have anything to say because he didn't want to jinx Sam's safety by saying something. He did watch him like a hawk as Eliot took him out to the deeper part of the water. "You can let go of me now." Sam whispered in Eliot's ear.
"What if I don't want to?" Eliot asked with a smile. Sam looked deep into his blue eyes. Eliot kept his arms around him. "You have to promise me you'll stay safe."
"I promise." Sam said. Eliot reluctantly let go of Sam.
"Let's see what you can do." He said. Sam smiled and dove into the water. He came back up a minute later holding a beautiful seashell. He swam to the coast.
"Parker!" He yelled out. Parker walked to him. He held out the seashell. "Thought you would like this." She took it and smiled.
"Thank you Sam." She said. She laid it on the beach by her and watched as Sam swam out into the water. "He seems happier, or as happy as a man with fins can be."
"Eliot, we should probably go research stuff." Dean said. "It's getting late." Eliot looked at Sam.
"I can't leave you." He said. Sam smiled at him. "I could just camp out here until we figure out what we're up against."
"You'd freeze out here at night." Sam said. "I'll be waiting right here for you every morning. Go figure out what's going on with me so I can come home and we can have some fun in a real bed." He winked at Eliot.
"Please don't let anything bad happen to you." Eliot said. He kissed Sam then swam back to the shore. Dean handed Eliot a towel as he walked onto the beach. Sam treaded the water, watching them. Eliot looked back at him. "I'll be back first thing in the morning. Ok Sammy?"
"I'll be waiting for you." Sam said. He waved at them all. Eliot smiled then slid into the front seat of the Impala by Parker. Hardison stood there, staring.
"Dude, really? Haven't we had this talk about respect before?" Hardison said as he walked towards the backseat.
"Shut up Hardison!" Dean, Parker, and Eliot all three said.
"Oh I see how it's gonna be. I'm the only geek as of right now so ya'lls are gonna pick on me." He got into the backseat of the Impala. As Dean started to drive away, Eliot watched Sam through the rearview mirror until he was too far away for him to see.
Late that night, when the events finally caught up with Sam, he found a small cave to sleep in. It was flooded so he was able to feel safe there. But he felt lonelier then ever. He wrapped his arms around himself and curled up on himself.
"I miss you Eliot." Sam cried.
Eliot tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep. He paced to the window and looked out over Boston then went back to bed. He did that well over ten times. He laid back on the bed and looked up at the ceiling.
"God Sammy, I miss you." He said. He pulled on of Sam's pillows to his chest and forced himself to drift off to sleep.
