Landing on the rocks, Sharkboy took a moment to catch his breath. His heart was pounding in his chest, and his scales felt hot with arousal. He had never felt like this before, and he didn't know how to handle it. He was a creature of the sea, not of love. But as he sat there, watching the waves, he knew he couldn't ignore the feelings that had taken hold of him. He had to find Max and talk to him. Maybe they could figure this out together. He stood up, brushed the sand from his scales, and took a deep breath before heading back to the beach house. When he got there, he found the place in an uproar. Max was standing in the middle of the room, his face red and his eyes wide, while Mr. Electric was yelling about privacy and respect. Lavagirl was trying to calm everyone down, but it was clear she was enjoying the drama a little too much. Sharkboy stepped into the room, and all eyes turned to him. Max's gaze was the most intense, a mix of anger, confusion, and something else that made his stomach do flips. "Look, I'm sorry," he began, but Max cut him off.
