"A Valentine Surprise" by geneames1
Isca sat in the living room of the undersea home belonging to her sister, Caylis. For once, she was alone; Caylis needed a break and went out to hunt for shells for her extensive collection, which meant Isca finally had time to think without interruption. She gazed idly out of the window, watching schools of colourful fish swim by. Her mind was not on the fish, however. She was thinking about Valentine's Day.
