Patrick smiled as he learned how to swim as a merchild. Pearl smiled as she taught him. The 18 year old was a natural big sister and adored her baby brother. He was so adorable and so sweet. Pearl laughed as she chased Patrick. The 18 year old loved playing with him. He was so awestruck by everything in the lagoon and ocean.
After a good day of playing, Patrick was resting his head on her lap. Pearl smiled contently, gently stroking his hair, taking care not to disrupt his hair or his rest. Pearl had decided she wanted to stay a mermaid and grow up with Aquarius and Marina as her loving parents. She hoped Patrick would make the same choice, that way they'd be able to play forever.
Patrick yawned as he woke up. "Hey you." Pearl smiled warmly. "Pearl, I wanna stay a merchild, is that ok?" Patrick asked. Pearl beamed with joy. "Absolutely little brother. You just need to sign this." Pearl said, magically conjuring a contract. Patrick signed it without a second thought. Pearl squealed in delight as she lifted Patrick up and gave him an Eskimo kiss. "OH you have no idea how happy you made me." She said. Patrick laughed happily as he hugged her.
