S/M 47 & B/L 40

Warning: Closure.

Sebastian and Min were finally ‘relaxing’ in her temporary apartment after her long shoot when she got a Skype call from Key.

“Hey umma long time no talk.” Min smirked when she accepted the call seeing Key face.

“Lady please, you were the one who decided to move to America. Not my fault our time zones are different.” Key smirks. “Ohhh whos that arm wrapped around your shoulder? Your new boo?”

“Actually, more like an old time boo.” She said turning her screen over to Sebastian who waves at Key.

“Holy shittttt, you guys are finally together?” Key asks unable to control his excitement squealing like a little girl.

“Oh shut up, yes we are finally together. But can you keep it on the down low please not a lot of people know yet. We decided not to go public yet and keep the fans guessing.” Min explains.

“Uggg fine my lips are sealed but shitttt I can imagine how the fans are going to react once they find out BuckLin is real in real life too so what that ship name. SebMin? Noo that sounds too much like semen… SebYoung?… StanYoung?.. OooYoungStan… That it… I like that YoungStan.” Key started to ramble making Sebastian and Min laugh.

“Anyways Key not that I don’t want Min to talk to you but we are kind of in the middle of something.” Sebastian said, showing his topless torso with some very fresh love marks on it.”

“Ahhh, please continue I would love to watch… actually no it will like watching my little sister have sex… wait noo scratch that. But ummm I will cut to the chase.” Key said before taking a deep breath and started to talk in korean only. “I want you to know that I support you 100% and take your side but Jonghyun hasn’t been so good lately and I was hoping you could talk to him.”

“Define hasn’t been so good?” Min asks.

“You know how he was, he’s getting worse. His depression has taken a whole new turn, it is worrying me. And you were the only one who got through to him. You know I wouldn’t ask you unle….”

“I will talk to him.” Min said calmly.

“I know, I am sorry I asked, I won't… Wait? You will talk to him?” Key asked in shock.

“Yes I will, I have forgiven him a long time ago.” Min said turning to Sebastian who was smiling tenderly at her; he grabs her hand placing a soft kiss on top of it. “You have?” Jonghyun asked at the entrance of Key door staring at Key laptop seeing Sebastian look at Min like she hung the moon and stars herself.

“Shit… I am sorry Min.” Key realized he forgot to lock his door.

“It’s fine let me talk to him.” Min said turning to look at Sebastian to see if he was mad but he just smiled at her encouraging her.

“You forgiven me?” Jonghyun said sitting down when Key left the room.

“Yeah I have.” Min said not wanting to cry.

“I am so sorry, I will never be able to forgive myself for what I have done to you.” “We were practically kids then, yeah gotta admit it was like a stab to the heart but it's fine. You shouldn't punish yourself for something that happened years ago.”

“But if I didn’t you would have stayed…”

“Jongie stop, I understand what you are coming from. It happened and to be honest, I wouldn’t change it for the world. I love where I am at and I love who I am with. I’m sorry Jongie, I won’t be able to be there for you as a partner anymore but I can still be here for you as a friend.” Min said smiling sadly at the screen. “So what do you say? Friends?”

“I would rather have you as my friend then nothing at all. Friends.” Jonghyun said smiling sadly at the screen with tears running down his face.

“Good, don’t be a stranger and message me more often. I will be expecting it more now.” Min said.

“Deal. I will let you go, it looks like you are a little busy.” Jonghyun said smirking at Sebastian. “Yeah about that. Talk to you soon, I have some business to finish.” Min winks at the camera.

“Have fun, don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.”

“Pftt. You would do anything.”

“Exactly… Bye Min.”

“Bye Jongie.”

Everyone was suited up in their Quantum suit walking over to the Time Machine all huddled around the platform.

“Five years ago, we lost. All of us. We lost friends... We lost family... We lost a part of ourselves. Today, we have a chance to take it all back. You know your teams, you know your missions. Get the stones, get them back. One round trip each. No mistakes. No do-overs. Most of us are going somewhere we know. But it doesn't mean we should know what to expect. Be careful. Look out for each other. This is the fight of our lives. And we're gonna win.” Steve said, Tony looks over giving Steve an approving look. “Whatever it takes. Good luck.”

“He's pretty good at that.” Rocket said about Steve speech.

“Right?” Scott said looking very excited.

“All right. You heard the man. Stroke those keys, jolly green.” Tony refers to Bruce who was typing on the keys. “Tractors engaged.”

“We got this Linda.” Steve said looking over at Linda who was wearing a grin on her face that hasn’t been there since before the incident.

“See you in a minute.” Natasha said smiling excitedly at Steve then Linda who winks back at her friend. They all shrink and enter the Quantum Realm, and they all split at different intervals, going to a different place at a different time in history.

The first group which consists of Tony, Steve, Linda, Bruce, and Scott; travels to New York in 2012, materializing right in the middle of the Chitauri battle.

“All right, we all have our assignments. Two Stones uptown, one Stone, down. Stay low. Keep an eye on the clock.” Steve explains when the 2012 Hulk passes by them smashing everything in his way. Linda turns around to look at their Bruce who facepalms himself completely embarrassed. “Feel free to smash a few things along the way.” Linda said smirking at Bruce who rips off his shirt

“I think it's gratuitous, but whatever.” Bruce said walking over to pretend to be 2012 Hulk smashing everything in a sarcastic way while growling fakely. Linda stands behind everyone holding her stomach laughing silently when Tony turns to look at her pushing her playfully but also has a smirk on his face.

The rest starts to pair up, Steve and Linda, Tony and mini sized Scott waiting for their signal to move in.

“Just like old days huh.” Linda smirks as she and Steve runs over to the entrance of what was left of the Stark tower.

“God how I missed you and your snarky remarks.” Steve smiles shaking his head.

“Got to hustle, Cap. Things look like they're just about wrapped up here.” Tony said in the com. “Uh, Mr. Rogers. I almost forgot that that suit did nothing for your ass.”

“No one asked you to look, Tony.” Steve said

“It's ridiculous”

“I think you look great, Cap. As far as I'm concerned, that's America's ass.” Scott said as Linda slows down a bit just to stare at Steve ass now in his current suit.

“However now were on the topic of Steve ass, let me just say my view right now is great.” Linda said causing Steve to look back seeing Linda raise her eyebrows at him.

“What? Like Scott said, America’s ass, and I gotta see what that is all about.”

By the time they got to the elevator Tony updated them on what was going on.

“All right, Cap. I got our scepter in the elevator just passing the 80th floor.” “On it. Head to the lobby.” Steve answered.

“Alright. I'll see you there.” When the elevator opens the ‘Hydra’ Agents sees Steve and Linda who both just walks in and hits the button to continue down.

“Captain, Grey. I thought you were coordinating search and rescue?” 2012 Sitwell asks confused.

“Change of plans.”

“Hey, Cap. Grey” Brock said not taking his eyes off Steve.

“Rumlow.” Steve said when Linda and himself caught the eye of an agent grabbing his gun while everyone was getting suspicious. “I just got a call from the Secretary. I'm gonna be running point on the scepter”

“Sir? I don't understand.” Sitwell said confused.

“We got word there may be an attempt to steal it.”

“Sorry, Cap. I can't give you the scepter.” Brock said rolling his eyes

“I'm gonna have to call the Director.” Sitwell said.

“That's okay. Trust me.” Steve said leaning over to Sitwell's ear. “Hail Hydra.” Linda heard it and plastered a smirk on her face before the elevator door opens, Steve and Linda gets off but she turns around, “Bye Rumlow.” Linda waves seductively winking at Brock making everyone smirk at the blushing Brock.

Once they were out of listening range Steve tried to communicate with Tony but failed.

“Tony, what's going on? Tell me you found that cube.” Steve said when he looks up and sees 2012 Steve standing there. “Oh, you gotta be shitting me.”

“I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.” 2012 Steve said then looking at Linda.

“Steve whats going on? I am confused.” Linda pretends to act confused looking back at Steve to 2012 Steve.

“Linda stand back, that's Loki.” 2012 Steve said.

“I am not Loki. And I don't wanna hurt you.” Steve said putting down the case when they both go head to head smashing their shields together and engaged in a duel when 2012 Steve knocks Steve over.

“I can do this all day.” 2012 Steve said making Linda snicker under her breathe.

“Yeah, I know. I know.” Steve said rolling his eyes at 2012 himself and Linda throwing his shield at 2012 self which also threw his causing both to clash and drop down. Linda was having a blast watching not 1 but 2 Steve battle each other out staring at both their ‘America ass’ fight in a hand in hand battle smashing the case over the rail, she runs over attempting to grab it but it falls not long after the 2 boys fall down smashing through the glass pane. Linda winces every time the boys fall down further and further until they reach the ground floor.

Linda took her time jumping down the stairs gracefully walking over to the boys as 2012 Steve puts Steve in a headlock. “Bucky is alive.” Steve told 2012 Steve making him let Steve go. Linda grabs the septeure and stuns 2012 Steve before he collapses on the ground out cold.

“You could have helped me you know.” Steve groans standing up.

“I know but what fun in that when I can watch 2 america’s ass fight.” Linda said holding up 2 fingers to Steve's face before walking away from Steve.

“That is America ass.” Linda heard Steve say before shaking her head laughing at him.

I’ll Be Your Merman Pt. 2

Summary: AU He’s a merman who is being pushed by his parents to find a suitable mate. You were enjoying a day at the pier skateboarding when you met. “I’ll play Ariel if you’ll be my Princess.”

Rating: PG-13 (Minor language)

Characters: Reader x Merman! Baekhyun, Merman! Chanyeol, Merman! Xiumin, Merman! Chen

Notes: Slightly inspired by a friend’s fictional mermaid drabble and an idea I came up with. You asked for a part 2 – hope you guys enjoy!

Shout outs to @listenthemoose and @bubblehobi for reading and reblogging the first part – Thank you!

Part 1 –> link

“Baek...mmph! It’s...oh you’ve got to be kidding me,” you grumbled as you stared at the digital readout on your alarm clock, “4:52 in the morning! Can’t – yawn! – can’t this wait a little?”

“No, it’s almost sunrise and I wanna watch it with you!” Baekhyun said as he pressed his shell phone closer to his ear. “Can you come now?”

You muttered a string of complaints and a few swear words under your breath as you sat up and threw back the covers, searching for shoes and your skateboard. You rubbed a hand across your face and sighed. “Okay I’ll be there in...10 minutes. Oh and I’m not getting in the water for this – it’s too fucking early to get in a freezing cold ocean!”

He pouted, jutting his lip out as he began to swim back and forth. “But how are we gonna enjoy it together? And P.S. the water’s not that cold, Princess!”

“Ha, for you it isn’t!” you snorted as you slipped on a sweatshirt and quietly reached for your smartphone and keys. You put them into your pocket and closed the door to your house behind you, walking a short distance from your neighborhood before dropping your skateboard to the ground and stepping on. Secretly you were glad it was too early for anyone to be up – if they had seen you holding a shell to your ear at this hour, they’d think you were nuts.

It had been a few weeks since the adorable merman had tossed you his number and struck up a conversation about trying to hold onto your youth before you were both forced to be adults. His problem was his parents wanting him to find a mate soon and settle down, while you were trying to wrap things up on your studies and figure out what you wanted to do with your life. You had talked a lot over shell phone but it had been a while since you hung out in person.

“Baekhyun-ah, are you hanging out with her again?” Chanyeol asked as he watched his friend swim back and forth, shell phone in hand.

Baek nodded as you told him that you’d see him soon. He stuffed the shell into his messenger bag and gestured for Chanyeol to swim with him to the surface. Chanyeol tilted his head and glanced up at the surface.

“You sure?” Chanyeol asked.

Baekhyun rolled his eyes and grabbed his friend’s arm, dragging him along as he began to ascend. “It’s not like you had anything better to do! Come on, Y/N’s really great and I know you’re gonna get along great.”

“Baek where are you?” you called out in a hushed voice. You had skateboarded to a dock where a few private yachts and small personal boats were tied up. Just as you were starting to take a seat at the edge, you felt a wet hand tug on your ankle and you jumped at the contact. Baekhyun popped his head up from the water and smirked, raising his other hand in greeting. Chanyeol came up beside him and shyly waved at you.

“Y/N, this is my best friend Chanyeol,” Baekhyun said as he gestured to the other merman. “Chan, this is Y/N.”

“Hi, nice to meet Baek’s best friend,” you said with a smile.

Chanyeol returned the smile and shamelessly eyed your legs, starting from your ankles and ending at your thighs. “Nice to meet the girl Baek’s been calling a lot…nice legs by the way,” he murmured with a wink.

You ducked your head, feeling your ears burn at the compliment and Baekhyun pouted, nudging Chanyeol in the arm.

“Yah! Stop flirting with her!” Baekhyun whined.

Chanyeol snorted as he placed both hands on the dock and hoisted himself up so he could take a seat next to you. “Like you haven’t checked her legs out Baekhyun-ah.”

Baek opened his mouth to say something while you giggled, watching as his face flushed pink. He gestured to the remaining space on the dock between you and Chanyeol before pulling himself out of the water and sitting down. He wrapped his arms around you and your eyes widened at the sudden action.

“She’s my friend – no flirting with her!” Baek declared as he squeezed you. “And no looking at her in that way!”

You laughed as you stroked the top of Baekhyun’s head. “Aww, is my little merman getting jealous?”

Baekhyun started to pout at the comment until he felt your fingers running through his hair and brushing his ears. His eyes fluttered and he let out a little sigh, his cheeks warming. Chanyeol pretended to look disgusted and he nudged Baekhyun’s arm.

“Ugh, get a room hyung!” Chanyeol said with a shake of his head. “I’m an innocent merman who hasn’t been mated!”

“Please, you know what happens when mermen and mermaids mate! They teach this to us in school!” Baekhyun snorted, rolling his eyes.

“Hey guys, I thought we were gonna watch the sun come up,” you interrupted them, not wanting to hear the rest of the mating talk. “Look!”

Baekhyun snapped his head to the horizon and straightened up when he saw light starting to peek out. You stopped stroking Baek’s head and turned toward the horizon as the last traces of the dark sky began to give way to pinks and gold. Chanyeol stared with wide eyes as the sun slowly began to slip up into the sky and he sighed with a smile on his face. You couldn’t help but smile too as light began to spread out and up.

“I forgive you for waking me up so early Baek,” you murmured. “This was definitely worth getting up for. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” he said as he looked over at you. He scanned your outfit and huffed. “But I was hoping you were gonna come swim with me after!”

“I told you! Too. Fucking. Early. To. Swim,” you stated, crossing your arms over your chest. “So how are things under the sea?”

“Life is the bubbles!” Chanyeol joked. “Just like that movie you humans watch!”

Baekhyun groaned at Chanyeol’s pun and grumbled that he was spending too much time around Suho. “Aish, you’re gonna start sounding like a dad with bad dad jokes like him! He’s not that funny!”

“He tries! I think he’s funny!” Chanyeol shot back.

“Yeah, just you and Xiumin though,” Baekhyun snorted. He shot you an apologetic look and rested his palms on the deck, leaning back. “Ah...my mom and dad won’t stop asking me to find a mate. They’ve named some of the worst matches possible and I don’t know how much more I can take of it.”

“By worst, how bad are we talking?” you asked.

Baekhyun straightened up and pretended to flick imaginary strands of long hair around while making faces. He took on a high-pitched voice and mimicked many of the potential mermaids he dated or met at his parent’s request.

“You’re…a boy Baekhyun – I need a real merman! Aish, you’re too skinny, you need to do more hard work! Your family’s rich right? Ah that’s probably why you’re asking me – Mommy’s rich boy needs a girl and no one would look at him unless he had money!”

Chanyeol doubled over laughing as Baekhyun adopted a snooty look for his last impression and you shook your head at hearing some of the things said to him.

“Were they really that bitchy to you?” you asked.

Baekhyun nodded and you stared at him in disbelief. Sure Baekhyun wasn’t an overly macho bodybuilder of a merman but the guy had nice biceps and he did have abs. You loved his long lashes and the way his lips would jut out when he pouted or smiled cutely at you. Plus he understood your struggles and you sympathized with his.

“Umma wants me to be happy but I don’t wanna rush things,” Baekhyun sighed as he cupped his chin in his hands. “Our friend Xiumin went into an arranged mating and that didn’t end well. She left him before they could have kids – said he was too clingy but I know she had her eye on someone else for a while.”

“Poor guy,” you murmured.

Chanyeol cocked his head and looked over at you. “How about you Y/N? What’s up with you and the human world?”

You scrunched up your nose and pulled your knees up to hug them. “Oh I just finished my second to last year of college. Need to start thinking about my senior thesis, but not sure what I want to do it on. My mom isn’t forcing me to find anyone yet, but I think she’s worried about what I’m going to do with myself after graduation. My sister went off to the Air Force and she’s already been given several higher ranks and better pay. Plus it feels like a lot of my friends are already getting married or having kids.”

“Air Force?” Chanyeol asked. “Are those the things I see in the sky that look like faceless birds but not quite?”

“Um sort of Chan,” you admitted. “I think you saw regular airplanes – those take people to faraway places in a short period of time. The Air Force is part of a protection squad that the government relies on if there are any threats to the country – they are trained to fly small planes and to look for signs of threats or trouble from the skies. It’s hard to get into and it’s very rigorous but people like my sister love challenges like that. She’s away from home a lot because she has to live on a base close to work but she’ll visit sometimes.”

“You miss her?” Baekhyun asked.

You nodded and replied that it had been a few years since you saw her since she was unable to go on leave. “I know my mom is proud of her like I am, but she also worries about me doing something productive with my life after school.” You looked over your shoulder to make sure no one else was coming onto the dock to try to take a boat out early. Luckily, it was still early enough that even the elite was sleeping in.

“How much longer are you guys allowed to be up here before they notice?” you asked.

“Eh we have some time,” Chanyeol replied with a shrug of his shoulders. “As long as we don’t get caught by humans and cause a scene, we can do just about anything we want.” He yawned and stretched his long arms out, wincing when his stomach growled. “Sorry guys, I’m hungry.”

“I could eat too,” Baekhyun admitted. “Wanna catch our breakfast?”

“Hyung, Y/N doesn’t wanna eat raw fish,” Chanyeol groaned as he slapped his forehead. “Or I dunno, maybe you do.”

You shook your head and tried to think of something nearby you could grab. Then it hit you.

“Hey, you guys have pancakes down there?” you asked.

You were greeted with identical confused looks and you giggled as both tilted their heads, trying to figure out what you were asking about. “I’ll take that as a no then? Well I know I shouldn’t encourage unhealthy eating habits but I know a place not far from here that makes amazing pancakes – I’ll just grab some and we can split. Sound good?”

“Is she back yet?” Chanyeol whispered from his position under the dock.

“I think I see her,” Baekhyun said as he peeked up at the sound of a skateboard rolling towards them. Both had returned to the water, Chanyeol hiding under the dock while Baek kept a look out.

You picked up your board and held out the takeout box containing 9 fluffy pancakes cooked to golden brown perfection. “Brought syrup too in case. Oh and I like to put Nutella on mine – sorry, it’s a weird habit I picked up from my sister,” you said as you sat down and opened the box. You doled out three to each of them before tearing a piece off one and dunking it into a to-go packet of Nutella spread.

Chanyeol took one, studying it and taking a small bite. He chewed thoughtfully before ripping a larger piece off to enjoy. “It’s like a cloud!” he whooped with a goofy smile. “So soft and not too sweet! Oh can I have some of that syrup please?” You passed over the plastic cup with the maple syrup and explained what it was to him.

Baekhyun was slowly eating his and he tapped your knee, pointing to the Nutella. “I wanna try some – what is it?”

You held out the container and he scooped a small glob of it onto his piece. “It’s a chocolate hazelnut spread,” you explained.

He took a bite of the Nutella covered piece, small smears of the spread ending up on the corners of his lips. He licked them and polished off the piece with a smile. “I really like that! May I have more please?”

You pulled out another to-go packet and opened it for Baekhyun to use. You held one out to Chanyeol but he politely declined, saying he was enjoying them with the syrup or plain.

“Best morning ever,” Chanyeol murmured as he finished. “Saw the sunrise, ate pancakes, met Baekhyun’s cute friend.” He grinned widely at you and Baekhyun puffed his cheeks out.

“Waeeeeeeeeee! I said no flirting!” Baekhyun complained as he threw a piece of pancake at Chanyeol. The latter caught the piece before it could land in the water, smirking as he popped it into his mouth.

“Hey no fighting! Don’t waste pancakes!” you protested as you held your hands up.

Baekhyun huffed as he finished his pancakes and you bit your lip when you saw he still had a little smear of Nutella at the corner of his lips.

“Baek, you’ve got a little…”

“Get it off then,” Baek teased with a smirk.

You blushed before digging around in your pocket for a napkin, leaning forward to wipe the smear off. Baekhyun pouted slightly and you tilted your head.

“Aish, hyung!” Chanyeol murmured with a shake of his head. He slapped his forehead and then it dawned on you.

“Oh...” you said as you looked at Baekhyun. Your face felt warm and you nervously tucked a strand of hair behind your ear. You leaned forward, hands gripping the edge of the dock when you froze hearing someone whistle a sea tune. Taking that as their signal to leave, Baekhyun and Chanyeol quietly slipped under the surface of the water and you started cleaning up the mess from breakfast.

“Excuse me, do you have a boat here or are you waiting for one of the owners?” a voice asked as you straightened up. You turned and saw it was a fisherman who must have had one of his boats tied to the dock. You ducked your head and apologized, stating that you liked to come down to the docks to sit and eat breakfast.

“I didn’t know this was a private dock – I’ll leave sir,” you said.

The fisherman shrugged and waved it away as nothing. “Easy mistake to make lass,” he said. “You can stay as long as you like. I just need to know in case someone asks.”

You showed him the trash from breakfast and excused yourself with a smile, board in one hand and trash in the other.

“That was close hyung!” Chanyeol hissed as they swam back to their village.

“He was far away – I heard the whistle!” Baekhyun insisted. “By the way, why were you flirting with Y/N?”

Chanyeol shrugged and raised his brows. “Kinda hard not to – she’s really fun to hang out with and it doesn’t hurt that she’s pretty to look at.” He tilted his head and smirked. “Wait, is she…the one?”

“Waeeeee?!” Baekhyun sputtered with a shake of his head. “I mean, I really care about her and I could tell she was uncomfortable! You shouldn’t have continued to flirt with her – you saw how she reacted!”

“Uh huh, sure,” Chanyeol snorted as he crossed his arms over his chest. “You know that she could join us someday if she wanted.”

Baekhyun groaned as he began to head toward Chen and Xiumin’s place. “You and your movies – aish Chan, there’s no sea witch to make her a mermaid!”

Chanyeol rolled his eyes and followed after him. “Baekhyun-ah, that’s not what I meant! If you paid attention to the textbook, you would have seen a passage on binding promises between mermaids and humans.”

Baekhyun froze and lingered back, glancing over his shoulder in disbelief. He scrunched his brows up as he tried to recall where that section was in their texts and bit his lip.

Chanyeol smiled smugly as he drew himself up and recalled the content, “If a human locks eyes with a mermaid or merman and they ask a favor or make a promise in the form of a question, they are bound to fulfill it.”

“If they don’t?”

“Actually…no one knows,” Chanyeol replied as his shoulders sagged. “The humans try to hold up their end of the bargain in the end. I mean, I don’t know if that could make her into a mermaid but maybe if she felt the same and kept her promise…”

Baekhyun paused, rubbing the back of his neck as he recalled your first meeting with him, specifically the moment he asked if you could keep his tail and species a secret. Wait, had he actually made you swear to a binding promise without realizing it?

“How’d the recent date go?” Chen asked Baekhyun over drinks.

“New topic please.”

“You’re being too picky Baekhyun-ah!” Chen whined as he swirled his glass around.

Xiumin leaned over and rested a hand on Chen’s arm, shooting him a look. Chen bit his lip and ducked his head, muttering that he spoke too quickly.

Xiumin glanced over at Baekhyun and leaned his arms on the counter. “Baekhyun-ah, don’t rush into it,” he murmured before picking up his glass. “Learn from your hyung’s mistake.”

“See any cute humans to steal more bikini tops from?” Chen teased.

Baek shook his head and swallowed the rest of his drink. He chewed on his lip and debated whether he dare tell them about you. Chanyeol he could trust because they had been best friends since they were kids. But these two…

“I didn’t,” Baekhyun admitted. He kept his eyes on his glass as he continued, “But I met a cool human girl who rides a skateboard. She gave me some pancakes for breakfast.”

“What is a pancake?” Chen demanded as he put his glass down a little too loudly.

“Does she…?” Xiumin asked.

Baekhyun kept his eyes glued to the glass and Xiumin took his silence as a yes.

“She promised to keep my secret,” Baek added. “She looked me in the eye when she made the promise.”

“Ah binding promises – I’ve only read about them,” Xiumin said with a nod. “She sounds cool. I’m guessing she’s not very girly or into frills then?”

Baek shook his head and smiled fondly as he recalled your outfit from this morning – hair was messily pulled back, oversized sweatshirt with a faded logo on the front, shorts, and sneakers without laces. Nothing was fancy or shiny about your look but he could tell you looked comfortable and he liked that about you.

“She’s…very casual but comfortable with what she does and looks like,” Baekhyun said. “Thoughtful but a little unapologetic at times. Not fond of facing responsibilities head on but she knows they need to happen or be done.”

“So she’s a female version of you?” Chen concluded with a smirk. He yelped when Baekhyun smacked him in the arm and Xiumin shook his head at them.

“Anyone else know about her?” Xiumin asked. “Correction – aside from us and Chanyeol?”

Baekhyun shook his head and Xiumin nodded.

“Probably for the best,” Chen added. “Last thing you want is to have something happen like that human movie with the redheaded mermaid.”

“Aish, why must we talk about that?” Baek sighed, shaking his head.

“You were up early,” your mom commented at dinner that night.

You nodded and reached for the pepper shaker across the table. “Sorry – a friend of mine wanted to watch the sunrise today and I thought I’d join him. It was really beautiful – I’m glad I went.”

Your mom smiled and relaxed her shoulders, your answer giving her relief. It was better than you staying cooped up inside on your phone or computer doing hell knows what like other young adults, but she had to worry like a good mother did.

“Sounds like this is a good friend,” she replied. “Have I met them before?”

You shook your head and replied that you happened to meet by chance. It was kind of true but you told yourself to not tell her about the merman part. Your gut told you it would be a bad idea if you did.

“New friends are always good,” your mom replied, letting it slide. “Oh I forgot to ask – how is Sam doing? Did you guys have fun when you saw him?”

You paused from stabbing a piece of asparagus and bit your lip. You had forgotten all about Sam and you slowly put your fork down.

“Um…I didn’t skateboard with him,” you said. “Turns out he forgot all about our hangout and he was going to have lunch with his fiancé.”

“Wow already? Sam must really like this girl,” your mom mused as she raised her glass to take a sip. “Although it’s very unlike him to forget – I thought I remembered him as being very punctual and good with schedules.”

“People change Mom,” you muttered as you continued eating dinner. “May I please be excused?”

She nodded and you thanked her before clearing your plate, kissing her on the forehead.

“Yah Y/N! Didn’t anyone tell you it’s not wise to swim at night?” Baekhyun scolded you as he swam up to the secluded area of the beach you asked him to meet you at. He leaned on a rock and studied your expression. “Everything all right?”

“I just could use a friend if that’s ok,” you admitted as you put down your skateboard. You slipped off your sneakers and socks before tugging your sweatshirt off to reveal your bathing suit.

Baek’s eyes widened and he parted his lips in surprise, a faint blush crossing his cheeks. “Wae? Are you going to come swim with me?”

You nodded as you tied your hair back and began wading into the water, wincing as you tried to adjust to coldness. “How can – FUCK! – you stand thhhhhhiiiiissss?” you asked, teeth chattering.

Baekhyun tried not to laugh at you and he moved away from the rock, trying to swim as close as he could without stranding himself in the shallow waters. He held a hand out to you and you clenched your teeth as you pushed ahead, ignoring the freezing sensation of the water.

“Awww Y/N, come here,” he said as he pulled you close to him in a hug, trying to warm you up. “Is this helping?”

“Mmhm,” you mumbled as you wrapped your arms around his body. “Geez mermen are really warm!”

“I think you mean…hot,” Baek teased.

“Shut up!”

“Okay, okay I’ll stop,” Baek sighed as he rubbed your arms to try to warm them up. “Is something wrong though?”

“I think I’m just stressed about everything,” you murmured. “Everyone’s growing up too fast and I feel like I’m not. Like I’m a failure at being an adult. I mean, I’m still living at home but it’s only because it’s cheaper than school housing and I haven’t worked a real desk job before but –”

“Y/N I still live at home,” Baekhyun interrupted as he took your shoulders and turned you to face him. “I’m one of the youngest in my friends and I haven’t taken any of the mating stuff seriously. I’m not working because my parents aren’t letting me until I find someone. They don’t even support me singing because they think it’s a waste.”

“But Baekhyun you have a beautiful voice,” you said. “I wish others could hear it too.”

“I’m just glad you heard it,” he murmured with a smile. “You’re not alone – remember that. I’m here for you okay?”

You closed your eyes and smiled as you squeezed him in another hug. “I’m here for you too.”
