I think I did the last chapter of how Sam meets Elliot very well. I wasn't sure if Sam was to save Elliot or meet him after she turns human. Anyway, here's the next chapter. This is where it gets interesting. Review please!

Sam had returned to the ocean after the storm started dying out. She knew her father would not be happy if Sam didn't return after the storm. She couldn't help, but think about Elliot and how handsome he was. It was too bad Sam was a mermaid. She wished so badly she was a human.

Valerie went to her friend who was lying on her back.

"Hey, I lost you during the storm. Did you save that human boy?" Valerie asked.

"Yeah. Oh man Valerie, he was so handsome. If I was human, I would go out with him," Sam said as Valerie rolled her eyes.

"First Randal and now a human. I swear Sam."

"You're worse than Danny."

"At least we found one thing in common."

Sam rolled her eyes as she took a glance around her collection. She had different human items she happen to have found in the ocean or was given to her by Danny. There was a collection of silver ware, bowls, pictures, clocks, magifying glass', coins, etc. Some of the human stuff were nicknacks. Sam loved her collection. She put all the coins she collected inside her new piggy bank. There was a smile that showed on her face.

Valerie started putting her hair up in a ponytail with the scrunchies that were in a little bowl in Sam's collection. She loved using some of the human stuff.

"Don't I look fabulous?" Valerie asked Sam.

"You look terrific," Sam complimented her friend's new hairdo.

"Good, because this is what I'm going to wear on my first date."

"You're crazy!"

"Hey, I'll just say that I found it inside a ship and I just had to wear it."

"You did find it inside a ship and just had to wear it," Sam said while rolling her eyes.

"Exactly!"

Valerie left the cave where Sam kept her collection. She smiled, and then left the cave.

The next day, Sam went to the cave where she always met Danny. He smiled when Sam peeked her head from the water.

"Hey Sam, how are you?" Danny asked.

"Good. You got any food?" Sam asked as she lifted herself on the floor of the cave while Danny dug into his lunch bag and got out a sandwich. "Sweet!"

Danny and Sam started eating inside the cave.

"So, did you ever get to know Elliot?" Sam asked.

"Not much. He apparently is the new kid at my school."

"Man, I wish I could be human. Then I could talk to him."

"You can't even flirt with a guy!"

"Shut up!" Sam played along. "Seriously, I really like Elliot and he doesn't even know I exist."

"Except the fact that you saved him from a storm."

Sam sighed heavily. Danny smiled at his friend to comfort her. She looked at the pool of the cave.

"How 'bout you take me in for a nose dive?" Danny asked, trying to make his friend feel better.

Sam smiled and then pushed herself into the water. Danny slowly stepped into the pool of water before grabbing onto Sam. She covered Danny's nose, Danny put on his goggles, and took a deep breath before finding himself in the deep blue. Sam took Danny to different places in the ocean. The two friends had fun together exploring different parts of the ocean.

Meanwhile, Jeremy was looking for his daughter Sam. The king wanted to talk to his daughter about her absances lately. Jeremy could not find Sam anywhere. The king started looking around the upper part of the ocean, and then saw a sight that he never saw coming. Sam was swimming around with a human boy with her. The human boy seemed to be holding onto Sam as if she was the boy's life preserver. Jeremy was furious, very furious.

"Sam Manson!" Jeremy shouted.

Sam gasped and saw Danny who was looking at Jeremy. Because Danny was human, he could not hear Jeremy from under the ocean. Danny looked up on the surface and pointed up. He needed to breathe!

"Dad, I wish I can explain, but he needs to breathe," Sam said as she swam up to the surface. Jeremy followed his daughter.

Danny gasped for breath while still hanging onto Sam for dear life. Her friend started painting and laughing at the same time.

"That was interesting. Who was that guy in front of us?" Danny asked.

"My dad," Sam answered as Danny's expression changed.

"Oh."

Jeremy appeared from the ocean with an angry expression. He looked at Danny who gave a small wave before using the hand to hang onto Sam again.

"What is the meaning of this? You are not to ever hang around on the surface," Jeremy glared at his daughter.

"Dad, it was in a cave where no human ever goes to except Danny and he's my friend," Sam explained.

"Friend? He's a human! I told you that we are not to associate with humans."

"But Dad!"

"No but's! Now take the human back where he belongs and come back home. I never want to see you associate with him again!"

Jeremy dived into the ocean as Sam and Danny gave each other glances before Sam swam on her way to the cave. She lifted Danny onto the floor of the cave as tears came out of Sam's eyes.

"I'm really sorry Danny," Sam said as Danny wiped her tears.

"I didn't know mermaids made water come out of their eyes," Danny said while smiling. Sam returned her friend's smile.

"I can't stand my father keeping me from the world I love. Keeping me from you is going too far. There's a sea witch I know close by. Maybe she knows what to do."

"Sam, what are you thinking of doing?"

"You'll see."

Sam disappeared into the ocean water as Danny cocked his eyebrows.
