#mermaid Johnny

[skyf0ckz]

First piece for MerMay! Based on mermaid art from the 1800s <3

[homeofthelonelywriter]

The boys still couldn’t believe it. They had just taken down Makarov, Johnny barely surviving it, and now they were somewhere in America, in a beach house with a strip of private beach. All curtesy of Kate, apparently it belonged to her family but was hardly used, so the boys using it was a welcome change.

They had been uncertain if they wanted to accept the (paid for) vacation, but after they all finally got released from the hospital, Price decided it was time for a break and some relaxation. So, they packed their bags and flew to the States. Kate had given them a brief introduction on what was where over the phone and the excitement grew, especially when she mentioned that there was scuba diving equipment.

So, the moment they arrived, after quickly dumping their stuff in the entry way and changing, they grabbed the equipment and set out into the waters. Even Simon couldn’t suppress a small smile or hide his excitement. At first, they stayed fairly close to the surface, but after Johnny saw a colorful fish he wanted to follow, they continued on into deeper waters. And that was when they heard it.

At first, it sounded like a wounded animal, but nothing like anything they had heard before. Either way, a sudden protectiveness coursed through them as they followed the sound to the source. And then they saw it. Or rather her. You.

Your tail had gotten stuck in an abandoned fishing net and you couldn’t get out. Originally, you had tried to reach your people with your cries, but no one came. Well, except for these four men suddenly in front of you. The few encounters you had with humans so far, had never ended well, so no one could blame you when you shrunk back in fear, reaching for the dagger that usually rested in its sheath on your hip, but you had lost it when you tried to free yourself earlier.

The men and you starred at each other for a few moments, before one of them approached. Immediately you tried to swim away, momentarily forgetting about the net, but you were immediately pulled back as the rope cut into your scales. A pained wail escaped you, as blood slowly seeped into the water. The man quickly raised his hands, before slowly gesturing to the net and then to his thigh, where you could see a small knife. You could see his eyebrows raise, as if asking for permission, and you slowly nodded, hoping that they would just let you go afterwards.

He mirrored your nod, before slowly approaching you and taking out his knife. With precision that was unknown to you, he cut through the rope until you were free. Out of reflex, you darted away, your tail swishing hard enough to send the man back a bit, making him loose his grip on the knife and you watched as it disappeared into the darkness. You glanced back at the four, before diving into the darkness, after the knife. Along with it, you found your dagger, which you put back in its place, before swimming back up, just to see the four still there, as if they hadn’t moved. Slowly, you swam up to the man who freed you and held out the knife with both hands, a small smile gracing your lips.

He took it from you, nodding in thanks. After one more glance over all of them, you turned around and swam back to your home, taking a few detours in case they were following you. But when you came to rest later that day, you mind stayed with the men. No matter what you did, you couldn’t stop thinking about them. And little did you know that they had the exact same problem.

when siren!john finds you, you’re sitting on a rock, a pathetic shell of a human being. there’s a knife in your hands, blade glinting in the pale moonlight as you tremble. he calls out to you with an intoxicating croon. you look so shaken, such a poor little thing. just gaze into his piercing blue eyes. come on, pretty one. put down the knife for him. there you go. sweet things like you shouldn’t carry dangerous objects.

he asks you what you were planning to do with it, and you tell him through a fit of tears how every thing is horrible. how lonely you are, how empty you feel, how nothing in this world is with living for.

he agrees; your world is cruel, too mean for a sensitive and good-natured creature like yourself. but under the sea, there’s so much waiting to love you. hold you, caress you, and never let you go. in the depths lies his pod full of sirens just as big and strong and loving as he, all eager to prove it to you. it can be yours, sweetling, just come into the water. john will make it all better. john will make the pain go away.

just come to the water.

that’s it. let him hold you, envelope you in his scaly embrace. isn’t this nice?

now, you’ll have to be a good human and trust him. if you want to join him under the surface, he’ll have to take away your humanity. you do trust him, right?

it’ll all be over soon. just let the water fill your lungs as he sings you to sleep, a soft lullaby to celebrate the end of one life and the birth of a new one. yes, sweet thing. that’s it. succumb to the ocean. to him.

he’s all you’ll ever need.

no more pain of the human world.

and when you wake up, you’ll be like him, a beautiful creature of the water with a gorgeous tail. you’ll see life through his eyes, and you’ll never hurt again.

i hurt my own feelings by imagining how shark mer ghost's insomnia might get worse if remora mer reader got attacked/hurt by a predator while he was sleeping somewhere else

74 / part 2 of shark!141 after remora reader gets attacked

...

Ghost’s grip anchors you in place. His rough palm spans nearly across your back and reignites the sting of half-healed wounds. For a moment, to your sleep-deprived, terror-stricken, paranoid prey brain, he’s not Ghost—just a much larger mer with you trapped in his grip.

You twist, but it accomplishes nothing besides grinding your cheek further into the cold, cave-white sand floor.

"Stop squirming," he snarls. The command lacks its usual bite. The sand swirls around you both, stirred by the agitated flick of his tail. His grip tightens as you struggle. "You think I'm the one you need to fear? Look at you—panicking over shadows. You're damn lucky it's me and not some actual threat."

Your heart hammers in your chest. The first time you pluck up the courage to venture out into the water since the encounter with the barracuda mer--driven by hunger--and here's what it gets you.

"Breathe," Ghost orders. "Before you pass out and make this even more of a mess."

You go limp. "Are you gonna kill me?"

Ghost exhales sharply through his gills. "Shut up," he mutters. "If I wanted you dead, I'd be picking you out of my teeth." His thumb presses into the knotted muscle of your lower back, right where the deepest claw marks still ache. You skipped the fucking patrols. Skipped letting anyone check those wounds while you fussed over everyone else. That's what gets you killed. Ghost focuses on the most inflamed gash near your shoulder blade. Sand packed in the wound. Smell of rot starting to set in. A growl vibrates through his chest. Apparently you'd let it fester over accepting help.

Ghost dips his head and sinks his teeth into the junction of your neck and shoulder--not breaking skin, but applying enough pressure to freeze you in place. His tongue swipes harshly across the infected lacerations. Saltwater and enzymes sting through the detritus. He's... cleaning you. Roughly. Your fingers flutter and thread into wet sand. The dual sensation of pain and the unexpected intimacy send conflicting dizziness up your spine. This isn't right. You should be the one cleaning him.

The pressure of his jaw keeps you from jerking away. His free hand pins your wrist to the sand when your fingers twitch toward his ribs. Like you could ever push him off. You're hyperaware of his strong prey drive and your own instincts to freeze. You don't dare to even squirm. Still, his teeth press harder in a silent warning.

His tongue drags over the inflamed tissue again, methodical despite the violence of the gesture. The scrape of his rough tongue against your wounds burns—not just from the salt, but from the sheer wrongness of it. A shark mer shouldn’t be debriding a remora’s injuries. Shouldn’t be this close or handling you this way without intent to maim or breed. His teeth graze the edge of a half-scabbed gash, testing the give of the tissue. One sharp jerk of his head could tear it open. Instead, his tongue laps another stripe over the wound, slower this time.

Finally, the scrape of his teeth retreats to the safer press of his lips—still firm, still controlling, but no longer threatening to break skin. His grip on your wrist eases.

A shudder works through you. Not fear. Not quite.

He doesn’t lift his head until the marks are flush and pink with fresh irritation instead of festering neglect.

"Stay still."

Sand resettles around you as he reaches for a clump of nearby kelp and rips it free. His movements are efficient as he presses the kelp’s gel against the wounds to seal them.

So that's why he chased you into the cove at the edge of the kelp forest. You hadn't even noticed you were being corralled. You do your best to keep still and prone in the sand despite the overwhelming urge to peer at him over your shoulder. You focus on the sting of his rough healing instead.

Even when curiosity wins out, he doesn’t let you look. One broad hand presses between your shoulder blades to keep you down. The other works the kelp into the wounds with a clinical sort of brutality—no gentleness, just efficiency.

The kelp’s cool gel seeps into the inflamed tissue, to soothe the burn of his rough cleaning.

His voice is a low rumble against your spine. “You don’t get to hide in the reef and rot.” The words are harsh, but the way his other hand shifts to cradle the side of your neck—keeping your face from grinding into the sand—isn't.

He doesn’t elaborate, either. Just drags you upright by the scruff of your neck and shoves you toward the open water. “Swim. Before I decide you’re not worth the trouble.”

[ghouljams]

Tw for noncon

Merman!Johnny who knows he's not supposed to get too close to shallow water, not supposed to be seen by humans lest they steal him away from his pod, but he can't help himself. There's something about them, the way their short useless little twin tails fight so desperately to try and keep them swimming, and the silly little colored things that keep him from finding out what's between them. He's curious who could blame him?

Which is why he ends up stealing one away, snatched from an unlucky boat and dragged to a nearby sandbar. You keep making these horrible noises with your mouth, chest heaving and water pouring from your lips in short bursts. He hooks a thumb in your mouth to look at your ugly little teeth, so blunt, so different from his own, before getting to the good part.

Cunt. He'd knows it immediately, knows it as soon as he tears your colorful little tail cover off. Poor little thing that it is can barely fit his cock, though the more he thrusts and the more water spills from your eyes, the more of it you take. It's so hot and wet, clutching around him so tight it makes his head spin. He can see why you keep it covered. If the other mer knew how good human cunt was, that humans even had them, humans would become quite popular.

So he'll have to keep you somewhere safe, somewhere special where he can fuck you whenever he wants. Ah, if only you could take in water like him instead of simply leaking it out.

9.6k word count

+++

You hate the winter sea. You hate how cold the waters feel on your skin. And most importantly, you hate how you can't see much people on the shore during this time of the year.

Being the youngest mermaid in the family had its fair share of both perks and frustrations. One perk is how everyone goes out of their way to give you what you want. You enjoy the attention and you love the endless affection you receive from your sisters and parents.

One frustration is how overly protective everyone is. While your sisters have gone in and out of the waters plenty of times, you're stuck with sight seeing atop one of your favorite boulders in the sea. You haven't been on land and your human legs have never seen the light of day.

Meanwhile, your sisters have experienced everything there is to experience outside the waters. You heard they've joined human parties, drank human drinks, and kissed humans. And you die from envy. Sure, you can escape. It's not as if every inch of the sea is guarded. But you're not the rebellious type. Every time you think of going behind your family's back, guilt knocks some sense into you. With all the love you receive from your family, you can't find it in you to rebel and betray their trust. You just hope that one day, they could trust you, too.

So you settle on sight seeing within the waters. It's fun watching people. But tonight? The beach is empty and you blame it on the cold weather.

As you're about to turn back, a person's figure catches your eye. You squint a little bit and you see that it's a man. So you stay for a bit more to watch him. He's fully clothed from top to bottom, which isn't usual for people wanting to take a swim. But you suppose its because its cold.

He walks further into the sea and your heart picks up a pace. You're not sure why, but you attribute it to the weirdness of this person's actions. It's dark, it's cold, and he doesn't look like he just wants to take a swim.

As he walks even further, you duck a little bit to hide yourself and you see that there's some confusion on his face. His brows are all scrunched up and it looks like he's trying to find something.

As you continue to watch him, you're made uncomfortable by how far from the shore he already is. You scan the land and there's no one else with him. When all you can see is his head and he's still walking, you scream as a huge wave comes and suddenly envelopes him.

"No!"

And for a while you hesitate. Where is he? Can he swim? Has he died? Should I rescue him? You don't know! This is the first time you're going to come extremely close to a person. What if he gets scared of you and try to kill you?

"Fuck it!"

You fight against your hesitation and swim to where he is. You look form him under water and you saw that he was being taken away by the current so fast. You swim even faster to reach him, silently hoping your hesitation didnt kill him. When you reach him, you grab him by his arms and bring him back to shore. Not where he came from, but somewhere near a cave where you're not in the open. You can't afford to be in the open.

As you reach the dry portion of the cave, your beautiful golden tail disappears and it's replaced by two weird looking body parts. You're weirded out by the feel and sensation and you're a bit confused as to how they work but you decide its not your priority at the moment.

With a bit of a wobble, you walk closer to the man and put your ear near his chest. You hear a faint sound of his heart beat but you dont see the rise and fall in his chest.

Your sisters taught you about this before. They said it'll come in handy at a time where a human is in an absolute urgent need for help. This is absolute right? And not breathing is urgent, right?

So you do what you remember and apply pressure on his chest with your hands. You pump down and pump up, not sure if you're doing it right. But when you hear him cough, you panic because he opens his eyes.

You're frozen in place, absolutely terrified of whats going to happen. So you did what you thought was best. You leave. But before going back to the sea, you looked at his face. Trying to remember every detail there is. You also took the necklace

he has in his hand as a reminder of the night.

As the water touches your feet, your tail is back and you swim forward. But not without looking back at the man who seemed to have caught your heart.

---

You're back in your room and you fiddle at the necklace you took from the man you saved. It was a silver ring put on a silver chain. There's nothing fancy about it, there was only an engraving that said, "J. S."

You sigh as you try to remember him. You're enamored by his face. The upward turn on the corners of his lips, his defined nose, and long lashes. How can a person look so good? You dont think you ever saw a merman that came close to his handsomeness!

Oh, you are smitten.

It is said that mermaids only fall in love once in their lifetime. They can end up marrying someone different from who they love and they will remain loyal to the person they vowed to spend their life with. However, their hearts will only beat for one, whether the love is returned or not.

And you dont want to end up with the latter! You would rather have your love returned, thank you very much. Because how cruel would it be to not have your love reciprocated.

You start to think if you can be brave. If you can get the blessing of your family to follow this man that has clearly captured both your eyes and heart.

And just as you were contemplating, Julie and Hanni, two of your sisters barge into your room.

"Rumor has it that someone snuck out into the shore!" Julie teases with a smirk

"Oh, I heard that rumor. They said the mermaid's name is Y/n!" Hanni continues.

"Are you going to tell mom and dad?"

"Of course we won't! But you have to tell us how it went."

And both your sisters nodded at you, urging you to spill what happened.

"It was terrible."

Hanni comes to you with a worried look on her face before asking, "Oh dear, what happened? Are you hurt?"

"No, it's just that.. I rescued a man from drowning."

"Oh okay? And is he alive?" asks Julie.

"Yeah, he is."

"So how is it terrible?"

"W-Well... I want to swim to him, follow to where he is."

"Oh..." both your sisters said in unison as they give you a worried look. With just one sentence, they understood. They know why it was terrible. There was only silence and the sound of the sea, until Julie breaks it.

"But it doesn't have to be terrible! Do you really really want to follow this man?"

"Yes. It's only been a while and all I can think about is him."

"Are you really set on doing this? Like really sure?"

"One hundred percent."

"Then let's go to mom and dad."

"Oh come on Julie! You cant be serious. You know they'll never agree! don't give y/n some false hope." Hanni scolds.

"No, I'm serious! You want this so bad? You cant give up without putting on a fight. If you talk to mom and dad, then I'll know you really want it. And if they dont agree, well then, we'll be here to cry with you. I know you'll never want to do anything without their blessings. So the first step is to try to get it."

As Julie finishes her speech, you can see that Hanni is still doubtful but have also gone on board Julie's idea. She's right. Your heart will be most at peace and most brave if you got your parents' approval on this. It'll give you courage.

"So, what say you?"

You look at the silver on your hand and hold it tight. "Okay, lets do it. Now."

---

The three of you swim straight to your parents' room. With Julie and Hanni beside you, you knock on their door.

"Who's it? Come in!"

You open the door and see your parents seated on the huge study table inside their room.

"Hi, mom. Hi, dad, it's me. And Julie and Hanni."

"Hi girls. What brings you here this late at night? Come sit with your dad and I." You swim to them and your sisters urge you to go ahead and plead your case.

"Mom? Dad?"

"Yes, princess?"

"I m-met a boy." At this first sentence, your dad looks at you with brewing confusion in his eyes that you have no doubt will turn into anger any minute now. Especially when you tell him your plan.

"And how did you meet this boy?" your dad inquires.

"I rescued him tonight."

"What?!"

"Oh, dear."

Your parents react at the same time. Your dad, out of anger and your mom, out of worry. You see that your mom reaches out to your dad to hold his arms, trying to calm him down.

"And I want to follow him."

"Oh you really did it now, y/n!" your dad is seething.

"But dad! It was urgent! He was caught in the waves and no one else was there. But I was. So I saved him. No one saw me and I left before he could wake up. I promise."

"Okay, you saved him. But now you're saying you want to follow him. There's no way in Hades you expect me to say yes to that, right?"

"But dad, mom. I wanted your blessing. If you say yes and let me, I'll be brave and courageous. I like him!"

"Like him? You've been with him for a minute! And he was unconscious. How do you know you like him?"

"I feel it in my heart. Really, dad, I do! Mom? Please?"

"Oh, don't use your tears on us now! There's nothing you can say that will make me agree to this! It's a dangerous world out there. You dont know how vile humans can be! Might as well ask me to throw you to the werewolves so they can kill you! At least there, death is the only outcome. With humans, death is the kindest punishment!"

"Marcus." Your mom interjects and touches your dad's face. This seems to calm your dad down for a little bit.

"Michaella, talk some sense into your daughter. None of this nonsense anymore." And with that, your dad storms out of the room and Julie and Hanni follow him. Probably to try and talk to him some more.

"Mom..."

"I'm sorry darling, but your dad is right. We hope we can tell you the opposite. That the human world is a safe place you can always go to. But that's just not the reality. Humans are unpredictable. And also, how will you know where to go? You haven't even spoken to the man."

"But mom, I'd rather learn how cruel the world is than to experience the cruelty of never knowing whether there's a chance for my love to be returned. I love you all the most and my heart will only be at peace if I know that my family is behind me as I pursue the person I like."

You wipe the tears from your eyes and slowly retreat back to your room. You hold on to the necklace that will now just be a little memento of the once in a lifetime love you have for man you'll never meet again.

---

Hours turned into days. And days turned into weeks. You're on top of your favorite boulder again, watching the humans as they come and go to the beach. The weather is much warmer now compared to that one eventful night. There are people making bonfires and singing and dancing around it.

Everyday ever since, you went to the boulder to see if you would catch a glimpse of the man that caught your heart. But its been a while now and not even his shadow showed up. You think, maybe if you're a bit more persistent, one day he'll visit the beach again and you'll see him. Even if its from afar.

You admit that since the fight with your dad and their refusal to give their blessing, your world has dulled out a little bit. You couldn't find it in you to sing the songs you once loved to sing. Your appetite hasnt returned back to normal. And your joy has been washed out. Your mind is constantly occupied with images of the owner of the necklace that have now found its permanent place around your neck.

You hear a splash beside you and you turn to see Julie. She gives you a small smile.

"Hey, y/n. Mom and dad wants to see you."

"Oh, okay." You didnt think much of it. They probably just have something for you to do. You can see how they try to keep you occupied by giving you little kingdom tasks here and there. Something easy to do, just to keep you going.

"Mom, dad, y/n's here."

"Hey, princess."

"Hi, dad. Hi, mom."

You couldnt bring yourself to hate them. Of course not. You're sad and dejected. But you still love your family. And it might be the loyalty in you as a mermaid, but you're also trying your best to move forward.

You notice that in the room are all your 7 sisters, apart from your mom and dad.

"Why is everyone here?"

Your mom swims forward to where you are with so many emotions on her face.

"My dear, your father and I, together with your sisters, have decided to give you our blessing."

"B-Blessing?"

"Yes, blessing to go after your love."

Shocked is not the word to describe what you're feeling right now. Instead, you're confused with a little happiness swimming up to the surface of your heart.

"What? But I thought.. you and dad, you said-"

"Yes, and it took some time for us but eventually, your mom and I agreed that indeed, there's no cruelty greater than not knowing whether your love can be returned."

You look at your mom. You recall saying those words to her! She must have convinced your dad!

"Oh dad! Mom! Thank you. You dont know how much this means to me!" You sob as you take both your parents into a tight hug.

"Hey, don't leave us out!" And all your 7 sisters flock to you to give you hug.

"Now we have a gift. We cant let you go without helping you." Julie says as he gives a you a shell with some coordinates on it.

"That's where you have to swim to meet your love."

"Yeah, apparently, he is quite a famous person in that place. If you look well enough, you really might find him." Hanni adds. "Dad asked us to help you have something to bring on your long travel."

You looked at your dad and with tears in your eyes, you whisper, "Thank you, dad."

Your dad clears his throat and you know he's trying to hold back tears. "Alright, its time for you to go now. Remember, we're connected wherever. Even if you're swimming to very far seas, everyone in the ocean is your friend and will come to your rescue. So, don't hesitate to turn to the waters when you need to."

"Yes, dad. I will. Mom? Thank you."

Your mom and dad squeeze both your hands, and with one last look at them, off you went to where your love is.

---

You break the surface of the waters and pop your head out into the air. And as you do, you hear the faint sound of the city from where you are.

It's been 217 days since you started swimming to where the coordinates on your shell are. It's a long swim going to the opposite side of the world and you've gotten so tired of swimming too many times. You've befriended so many different mermaids from different mer-cities and you've received varying advices from them about your pursuit.

Some tried to reason with you, some urged you to continue, thinking it was so romantic how you decided to follow this man to where he is. But each time, your resolve just got stronger and stronger.

And finally, today, you're exactly where you need to be. The stars and your coordinates say so.

Now you're confronted with your next dilemma. It's time to go on dry land.

A good mermaid you met during your long travel gave you some things you have to do once you go on land. She's been on land so many times that she's mastered all the basics and necessities. And now you're mindful to follow everything she said.

"Okay, the first most important thing is to wear clothes." Wendy says.

"Clothes?"

"Yes, clothes. You know what that is right?"

"Yeah, I do. I know, but where can I get it?"

"Here, I'll stuff some clothes in this bag for you. I'll also throw in a pair of slippers for your feet. Once you're ready to go on land, don't walk to where the people are immediately. Dry the clothes for a while and then put it on you. Got it?"

So that's what you do. You swim towards the portion of the shore that's most hidden and you take out the clothes that Wendy graciously gave you. You lay them down on the sand to dry and you sit beside them.

As you wait, you stare at the feet that you now had in exchange for your tail. You wiggle your fingers and try to get use to them. You reach out to your sole to feel it and you thought about how far you've come now. You stare at the silver jewelry adorning your neck.

"I'm almost where you are."

The thought gives you a surge of energy that not even a minute later, you put the clothes on even if it still felt cold to the touch. But you cant wait a single more second!

You slip the slippers underneath your feet and you stand. You take careful steps at first and you feel the weakness in your knees. But you dont mind. You'll get used to it as you walk more.

But you don't get used to it. You've walked far enough to reach the noisy part of the land. There's so many people, and so many lights. You're fascinated at everything you're seeing. There were really giant boxes that moved very fast.

Everything is so... new.

But you don't let yourself get distracted. There were huge big glowing sheets up in the sky that showed faces of people. Really beautiful and good looking faces of people. And you thought, since the love of your life was handsome, wouldn't he be on one of the huge glowing sheets, too?

So you walked and walked and followed every glowing sheet, hoping to find one with the face of your love.

You looked around but couldn't find anything. But still you continued walking. Until you reach a place with much lesser lights and much lesser moving boxes. It was dark around you now but you don't know where else to go. You walk some more and you find a glass box with fishes inside.

Oh, poseidon! You were starved!

So you walked faster and put your hands inside the glass box and grabbed a fish. You were about to bite on it when someone harshly grabs your hand. The person's hold on you was so tight that you dropped the fish back into the water.

"Ow!"

"What the hell are you doing with my fish? You're a thief, aren't you!?"

You try to speak but you're not sure what to say. Would your language be the same as them? You understand what they're saying, but would they understand you? The person looks very angry and you dont want to make him even more angry.

"Do you have money to pay for this! You must be crazy? Don't you dare run away! I'll call the police." The person tightens his hold on your wrist even more and you try to escape his burning grip.

"Hey! Let go, you're hurting her!" You hear a woman's voice shout from behind you and immediately, the person lets go of you.

"Mrs. Zhong! I'm sorry. She grabbed a fish from our aquarium and was about to bite on it. She must be crazy! I was just about to call the police on her."

"That won't be necessary. Just leave her to me."

The woman looks at you with kind eyes and you smile at her. She saved you from the angry man and you sense a familiar aura about her that you can't quite pinpoint. But what you're gut is telling you is that she's someone you can trust.

"I see that you're not from here. Why dont we get you some place warm and out of these cold clothes?"

She guides you inside a fast box. It's the same kind as the ones that were moving very fast. You sit inside and you're amazed at how it feels when it starts moving. You sit still and stare glances at the woman that just kept smiling at you.

You don't realize that you pass by a big glowing sheet with the face of the person you're looking for.

"Here, why don't you change into these clothes and then we'll get you something to eat?"

You take the clothes that Mrs. Zhong hands you. You recall that thats what the man called her earlier. You nod your head and when she leaves you, you start changing into the new clothes.

Once you're done, you look around the room. It was so different from what rooms look like under the sea. There were so many stuff you dont quite understand. But you note that you like the warmth that you're feeling.

Someone knocks on your door and its Mrs. Zhong.

"Let's have you eat."

You follow Mrs. Zhong out of the room. He leads you to another room with a huge table with so many seafood. You eyes sparkle at the food in front of you because you're hungry from all the walking you did.

So you sit down and look at her to ask for permission. And when she nods at you, you grab a fish and take a bite of it. You groan in relief as you tasted the freshness of it. Your feet did a little wiggle at how good it tasted!

"You're a mermaid." Mrs. Zhong states and you looked at her with wide eyes. You carefully swallowed the food in your mouth and also carefully nodded at her.

"It's okay. I know about mermaids. Our family has always been friendly towards your kind. I know many people don't believe that you exist, but for generations, the Zhong family does." She offers you a gentle smile and urges you to continue eating.

"Dont be afraid to talk. Your words will register to human ears as human language. The same way that it registers as mer-language when you talk to mermaids."

"O-Oh, how did you know?"

"Information about you is sacred inheritance that is passed down in our family. So tell me, child, what's your name?"

"I'm Y/n."

"Pretty name. What brings you here, y/n?

"Uhm, I followed someone."

"Oh, you came for love! Do you know his name?"

"No, I don't. I've only met him when I saved him from drowning. I left before he could wake up. But I have this!" You show Mrs. Zhong the ring necklace that you've been wearing ever since.

"I see, do you mind if I take a look at it? We might find some clues from it." Without hesitation, you hand her the silver piece and she immediately inspects it.

"J.S. Huh, that's a vague information. Let me take a photo of it and let's see what more I can find out about this."

She takes out a small shiny box and a flash of light comes out from it. Mrs. Zhong looks at your confused face and lets out a chuckle.

"This is called a phone."

"A phone?"

"Yeah, you have conch shells in the sea, don't you?"

"Yeah."

"Well its similar to that in a way that you use phones to call someone who is far way from you. But its just more powerful than a conch shell. You can do a lot more things with it." You nod in understanding although you dont really fully understand.

You focus on the food in front of you and as you keep munching, you hear someone coming in.

"Mom!"

"In the kitchen, son!" Someone comes in the kitchen and you look at him with curiosity.

"Meet y/n. Y/n, this is my son, Chenle."

"H-Hello, Chenle." you give him a shy wave and he acknowledges you with a polite smile.

"Nice to meet you, Y/n. Is she your friend, mom?"

"Yes, she's a special friend and she'll be staying with us for a while. Can I ask you a favor, son?"

"Sure, mom, what is it?"

"Well, y/n here is really a special friend to our family. It's probably the first time you're actually meeting someone like her."

"Oh for real? Wait.. special friend, meaning...? Like, that special friend?"

"Yes, she's our mermaid friend. And Poseidon probably looks after her really well because fate led her to us."

"Oh, wow. Never met a real mermaid before. I've only heard her from the stories we know about them."

"You're right. But we're always prepared to help them anytime. So if you can fit it into your schedule, will you help her get used to our world? She's looking for someone."

"Yeah, yeah. Of course. I can do that. Who's she looking for?"

"I'm looking for my love. The owner of this!" You interject and show Chenle the ring on your neck. He takes a close look at it.

"J. S.? Are those initials of the person you're looking for?"

"Uhm, I'm not sure. But this belongs to him."

"Alright, we'll help you find him! In the meantime, stay with us! We'll make sure to keep you comfortable here." You smile at Chenle and nod enthusiastically.

Things are looking very positive for you. You thank the seas that you end up being with such kind people.

---

"Chenle, where do I start finding him?"

You know its deep into the night but you cant sleep yet. Your mind is racing with thoughts of how to find the man you love. So Chenle offers to stay with you for a while. You're both seated on a big fluffy chair while he plays with his phone.

"Hmm, what do you know about him?"

"He's handsome."

"Come on, we're gonna need more than just that. What does he look like?"

"Well... his lips first, it has a very defined arch on top of it. You know this part here on your lips?" You point to Chenle's philtrum and he subtly backs away from your touch. A tinge of redness appearing on his ears.

"Y-Yeah okay, got it. What else?

"And then the corners of his lips are upturned even if he isn't smiling. His nose is very high. And then his lashes are really long. Hmm, what else... oh! His hair, very black."

"Okayy, so many people fit that description. Do you have anything else?"

"Hmm... my sister said he's famous here!"

"Famous?"

"Yeah! Famous. So if I try really hard, I might actually find where he is. That's what my sister said."

"Famous, huh. Okay, how about where and how you met? We need to get more clues from what you know."

"I met him back where I live. It's very very very far from here. I saved him from being carried away by the sea."

"You saved him from drowning?" his eyebrows are knit together, as if he's thinking. Like trying to remember something, too.

"Y-Yeah. It was cold that time and nobody was with him. He was trying to find something before a huge wave hit him."

"It was cold, you said? How cold? Was it snowing?"

"No, but the waters were really freezing and no one was swimming that time because of the weather."

"Johnny hyung was in an accident in December." Chenle whispers something you couldn't hear. "Can I see the ring again?"

"Oh, here."

"J. S. ... Johnny Suh? Could it be Johnny hyung?!" Chenle's face lights up in realization and immediately finds something from his phone.

"Y/n, is this him? Is this the person you're looking for?" He shows you his phone and from it, you see the face of the only person that's been on your mind the whole time. And you jump up in delight!

"Chenle! That's him! That's really him! Do you know him? Oh, my seas! Can we go to him now?"

"Really? Shit. The person you love is Johnny hyung."

"Johnny hyung? Is that his name?"

"Johnny. His name is Johnny Suh. J. S., the engraving on the ring."

"Johnny Suh. What a beautiful name. Chenle, we have to hurry! We have to meet him!"

"W-Wait, y/n. We have to plan this well. My mom probably told you already that not everyone believes in mermaids. And you might freak him out if you meet him all of a sudden. We don't want him to be scared."

"O-Okay, so what do we do?"

"Leave it to me. I'll make sure you meet him. But now, you have to sleep because tomorrow's a busy day for us."

Chenle says you need to sleep. But the racing in you heart won't allow you to do that. You just learned his name. And what's even more heart pounding is you're just another step away from meeting him. You close your eyes and say a little prayer. Johnny Suh, I can't wait to meet you.

---

"Okay, so I'm bringing you to work. Wear this and this, and then this." You receive everything that Chenle gives you and immediately start to undress.

"W-Wait! Not yet! Damn, let me go out first before changing!"

Chenle walks out of your room and you immediately wear the clothes he gave you. After dressing, you go out and see Chenle waiting for you outside.

"So, here's the deal. I'm bringing you to work. Johnny hyung's group and my group have one big activity today, so he'll be there. I'm taking you in as one of my assistants for the day and you'll help on everything. Eventually and hopefully, you'll have a chance to help Johnny hyung, too. Don't be too forward. Remember not to get too excited. Just be calm. Don't scare him. Okay?"

"O-Okay!" You held Johnny's ring tightly in your hands, hide it inside your shirt, and hope that everything will turn for the best.

---

Once you get to where Chenle was working, you're surprised at how many people there are. Everyone seems busy and is constantly moving. You survey the place hoping you see Johnny now.

You're both nervous and excited. You imagine how it would be meeting him. All you had with you was a ring and a memory of his face and that was enough to keep you going. You're very sure of your what you feel. What you're not sure is if this love you have, can be returned.

"Chenle!" a deep loud voice calls to Chenle and both of you whip your heads in unison. And as you turn to the direction of the voice, in front of you, in flesh, is Johnny.

Your lips part as he walks toward you and Chenle. All of a sudden, the place isn't noisy anymore. All of sudden, there was no one else but you and him. He hasn't changed much. But this time, you see the brightness in his eyes. Something you couldn't see on the night you saved him. You want to run to him, jump in his arms and tell him that you were the one that saved him. But you don't do any of those things. You remember Chenle's words and held yourself back.

"Johnny hyung!"

"Chenle, it's been so long!"

"It has, hasn't it? How are you?"

"Been doing great! Just got back from New York two days ago. How about you? And oh, sorry, who's your friend here?" Johnny turns to you and you mirror his actions.

"Johnny hyung, this is y/n. She'll be assisting us for today's shoot. Renee is sick, but I figured its gonna get busy today. So I brought her to help. Just let her know if you need anything, okay!"

"Nice to meet you, y/n. Hope you wont get too overwhelmed today." Johnny reaches out his hand to you.

"N-Nice to meet you, Johnny."

"See you later, Chenle! Just have to get my hair and make up fixed."

"Yes, hyung!"

You let out the breath you didn't know you've been holding

"Wow, that didn't take long. How was seeing him again in person y/n?"

"He's shining." He chuckles at your choice of description.

"Come, let's station you to where he is."

For the rest of the day, thanks to Chenle, you mostly followed the team assigned to help Johnny.

"Y/n, can you wipe Johnny's sweat please!" one of the head assistants instruct you.

"Y-Yes!" and you quickly run to where Johnny is. You take a tissue and gently dab it on his forehead. You brush away some of the hair framing his face. And then like how you observed from everyone, you turned the small fan you had on and turned it towards Johnny's face.

"You learn fast, y/n." Johnny smiles to you and you swear your heart does a little spin at his compliment.

"I-I do?"

"Yeah, you do. Have been doing this work for a long time?"

"No, today's my first day. I l-like helping you." you say straight. Johnny is surprised at your innocent confession. He pats your head and you're flustered at the contact with him.

"Thanks y/n. You're doing great."

"Alright! We're ready to take again!"

You touch the spot on your hair that Johnny touched and you smiled a little bit. You think you just fell in love with him even more, if that's even possible. He's so kind and so gentle.

The day went by and you had more small interactions with Johnny. And for every encounter you had with him, you can't help but admire him even more. He always spoke with such kindness and respect. So when it was time to go, you feel your heart weigh down a little bit.

"Anyone wanna grab drinks?" Johnny shouts.

"Hyung! Count me in! But can y/n join, too? We go the same way home so, we're gonna head back together after."

"Of course! Who else?" A few more boys, that you guess are their friends, raise their hand and said they want to come.

You look at Chenle expectantly and he just nods and smiles at you. Chenle, thank you! You thought.

All of you ride in one van and you go to a place that smells delicious. Everyone went inside a private room and started ordering. You're seated between Chenle and Johnny.

"Y/n, this is Mark, Haechan, Jungwoo hyung, Taeyong hyung, and Doyoung hyung. Everyone, this is y/n. She's a family friend and she helped at today's shoot."

"Hi y/n. Wow, has she ever been casted before? She's very pretty, no cap." The boy named Jungwoo says.

"Casted? What's casted?"

"That's when companies ask people to join them. To become an idol. Like us." Chenle answers. "But no, I don't think she's ever been casted before. She lived overseas for a long time."

"Oh really? Why'd you come here?" Mark curiously inquires.

You sit straight before answering. "For love! I followed a man." And everyone in the table chokes at your answer. You look at them and wonder if there's something wrong with what you said.

"Interesting. That's very brave of you. Who's this man, though? Can you share it with us?" it was Johnny asking now. He looked intently at you, awaiting to hear the name of the man you loved enough to cross another country for. You don't meet his gaze. You can't just blurt his name, right here right now, can you?

"There's someone... someone really handsome." Chenle coughs and all the others chuckle a little bit.

"Wow, y/n. You're something, aren't you! You're fun." Taeyong comments.

Just like that, the food and drinks come and you happily try everything. As dinner progresses, Johnny initiates a conversation with you.

"Y/n, this might be weird, but would it be possible that we've already met before?"

Yes! You look at Johnny and think very hard about what to say.

"Because you seem very familiar to me."

"W-Well I've always seen you." In my mind, when I think about you.

"Is that so? Are you a fan?" Johnny smirks as he asks.

"A fan? What is a fan?" You tilt your head and wait as Johnny tries to explain.

"Hmm, the easy explanation is its someone that likes another person."

"Oh! T-Then I'm a fan!"

"Really? Of the whole group?"

"No, you! I'm a fan of you!" Johnny breaks eye contact with you and turns to drink from his glass. His neck gets a little bit red.

"Are you always this honest?"

"I've never lied in my life."

"That's good. Very good, actually. I don't like liars."

You're not lying to Johnny aren't you? You're just postponing to tell him everything. You're going to tell him, eventually. Some time and place better.

---

Yesterday wasn't the last day Johnny would see you. His group and Chenle's are going to work together again today. And seeing you tag behind Chenle as he enters the set, he's guessing you would always tag along for the whole duration of their comeback preparations, which is a welcome change for him.

He would never openly admit to Chenle, but you are a breath of fresh air for him. Your chocolate brown hair that went down to your waist, your eyes that smiled along with your lips, and your lips... he probably focused on them one too many times every time you went close to him. But what intrigues him the most is your innocence and honesty. He'd never been flustered by someone before! But your sudden confessions catch him off guard. He's never met someone like you.

"Johnny!"

"Hey, y/n. How are you?"

"I slept well and was happy I can come with Chenle again today! I was excited to see you." Johnny gives a hearty laugh. This is what he was talking about. Only you can be so direct and forward with him. It makes him wonder if you're flirting with him. But when he looks at your face, there's no hint of malice or intention. Just pure... pureness. He wonders if you'd let him taint that innocence a little bit.

"Work hard today, y/n."

"I will!"

And through out the day, you do work hard. Johnny looks at you as you listen to another staff giving you instructions. He doesn't see what the staff asks you but you start picking up some water bottles that have been left on the floor.

As you were picking up water bottles, he sees something silver come out from inside your shirt. And you're not too far from him that he wouldn't recognize the very familiar piece of jewelry on your neck.

He stands from where he is and walks to where you are. He gets even more confused when he grabs your hand to face him and he confirms that you were wearing his ring.

"Where did you get this?" Y/n is shocked at the evident anger in his voice. Your eyes widen in realization on what he was pertaining to.

"I said.. where did you get this?"

"J-Johnny, my hand."

"Fucking answer me!" His voice booms and everyone stops to look. You also drop an open water bottle on the floor. Some of the water get on your feet as you were only wearing open sandals. Your eyes get wide with fear and panic and Johnny doesn't understand why.

"Chenle!" you shout Chenle's name and the boy looks to you direction and runs in panic.

"You got wet?"

"Y-Yes."

"Shit." You were shaking as Chenle quickly carries you somewhere.

---

Chenle quickly finds and empty room before your tail fully appears.

"C-Chenle..."

"Shh, it's okay. I'll get you dry and they'll turn into feet in no time."

The door harshly opens and it reveals an angry looking Johnny whose expression turns into something different when he sees your form.

"Hyung close the door!" And Johnny does. He locks it, too. He turns to look again, this time blinking to make sure his eyes aren't betraying him.

"What the fuck?" you sob at the situation. You were still trying to find the right time to explain everything. Trying to get close to him first. But now he sees you in this form, you wont be surprised he's disgusted with you now.

"Hyung! I'll explain later but now that you're here, can you help me first? Get me two towels!" Something shifts in Johnny's expression. He's neither angry nor confused now. He's face is just blank and focused as he gives Chenle the towels.

Chenle wipes your tail with the other towel and the other one, he gives you to cover yourself for one you transform back to being human. When Chenle fully dries you off, your tail shifts to legs again and you're naked.

Both Johnny and Chenle look away as you cover yourself with the towel. You keep your head down as you wait for Chenle to hand you new clothes. Both men turn around as you start to dress yourself.

And as you do, tears don't stop streaming down your face. You feel defeated. You've never once felt ashamed of who you are. Never. But at this moment, you hoped you were a normal girl. You hoped you weren't a mermaid. Because if you weren't a mermaid, then you would have met Johnny normally, like any normal human would.

As you put the last piece of your clothing on, you remove the ring on your neck that connected you to Johnny for a very long time. You walk to him and hesitantly took his hand. You place the ring on his palm and quietly say, "This belongs to you. I'm s-sorry I took it, Johnny."

You let go of his hand and they watch you as you exit the room. Even Chenle didn't go after you. Your sobs still ring clear in his ears. You must feel so broken and defeated inside, he thinks.

---

You walked and walked and walked some more until you reached the shore where you arrived. You feel the soreness of your feet, so you sit on the sand and looked at the open sea.

Now what? You're sure that Johnny hates you. You now know that the only love you'll ever have in your lifetime can never be returned. This must be the cruel pain that your parents mentioned. Oh, how extremely painful it truly is.

You hug your knees close to your chest and just cry your heart out. As you continue to do so, some figures emerge out of the water and you wipe the tears that blurred your vision to see what the figures were. As you do, you saw that it was your mom, Julie, and Hanni.

"Mom? Mom! Julie! Hanni!"

Instead of you coming to them, they came to you. One by one, their tails turned into feet and they run to you. You look around you and when you see that where you were was a secluded part of the shore, you're relieved.

"Mom.. Sisters...."

And with just one look, your mom and sisters understood. They hugged and cried with you until there was no more left to cry.

"Why did you come here?"

"We wanted to visit and see how you were doing. Your father had to stay because of duties, but he sends his warm love. He misses you dearly." Your mom answers.

"I ruined everything mom."

"Shh.. you didn't ruin anything. You were brave."

"Yes, y/n, mom's right. You were brave for chasing your love! And sometimes, when things dont work the way we expect them to, the most important thing is trying." Hanni adds.

You hug them once more. Oh, how you missed your family!

"You can always come back home." Julie tells you. And just when you're about to answer, you hear a faint voice calling out your name.

"But it might be too early to say! Is that him?"

"I-I guess so..."

"Y/n! Where are you?"

"Oh that's him! He's looking for me." As Johnny gets closer to where you are, your mom and sisters quickly go back to the sea.

"Y/n!" Johnny closes the gap between you and him and pulls you in an embrace. "I thought you left!"

"N-No, I was just sitting. How did you know I was here? Why were you looking for me? "

"Chenle's mom told us you might be here based on where she first found you. And I was looking for you because you left."

You search his face for answers but it was too dark. He still hasn't exactly answered why he was looking for you.

"Y-You were mad..."

"I was but not because... I wasn't.. Sorry I'm worried some people might see us here and take photos of us. This isn't exactly a private place. Will you come home with me?" Johnny reaches his hand out to you and you look to the sea briefly before taking his hand.

---

The drive going to Johnny's place was quiet. No one said a word. And when you enter his home, nobody said a word, still. Instead, Johnny takes your hand sits you on his couch.

"Yes, I was angry."

"I'm s-sorry."

"You don't even know what I was angry for, yet. I was angry because I've been looking for this ring for a long time now. It was the last thing on my mind before I had an accident."

"I know..."

"You know? You know what?"

"Your accident. That night, at the sea, you were looking for something before drowning."

"Yeah, I drowned while trying to look for this ring. How do you know this?" Johnny stares deep in your eyes and his lips part as everything clicks like a puzzle.

"You're the silhouette in my dreams. Except that you are actually real." He pauses. "Ever since the accident, I've always had these dreams of a girl leaning down on me. She didn't have a face and I can only see her silhoutte. That girl... she's you. You saved me, didn't you?"

And as you nod, Johnny hugs you again.

"You saved me in more ways than one." as you stare at him confused, Johnny takes his ring out.

"This ring belongs to my mom. J. S. for Johannah Suh. And that night when you found me, I was in a very dark place. It was my her death anniversary that time. I just wanted to miss her by myself. I just wanted to be somewhere quiet. It's hard to remember her when everything's constantly moving around me, you know."

"This was one of the few things that reminded me of her. So when it was taken by the waves. I had to find it. And that's when the waves took me, too."

After Johnny was done explaining, you saw the sadness in his eyes. So you gently take his face in your hand and try to comfort him.

"Mermaid can only love once in their life." Johnny looks at you. "When I saved you, that one love came to me."

"W-Wait, am I the person you were talking about at dinner? The one you followed for love?"

"Y-Yes."

"You swam half the world to meet me." You nod at his conclusion.

"You were my one love and I just wanted to give it a good fight before giving up. So when I saw the fear in your eyes when you saw my tail, I thought, maybe that's all the fight I can do."

"Fear? I wasn't afraid of your tail, y/n."

"You weren't?"

"No! Your tail was magestic. The most beautiful thing I saw. I was scared somebody would see you from the set and try to hurt you."

"So, you aren't scared of me?"

"Never."

"Then can I still work for you?" At this, Johnny laughs.

"Why work for me? Didn't you say you love me?"

"Y-Yeah, but that's just me."

"Is it?" Slowly, you see Johnny's eyes look at your lips. He slowly moves forward to seal the gap between you and him. As he does, you close your eyes. In a second, you feel his hands on your face and his soft lips on yours.

He keeps still for a while. His lips quiet on top of yours. As he separates from you, he presses his forehead against yours and whispers.

"Why don't you be mine, instead."

"I'm yours, Johnny. Always." you answer with no hesitation.

---

"I'm yours, Johnny. Always."

Johnny attaches his lips on yours again. This time, his tongue sought entrance and you let him in. His thumbs draw circles on your cheek. You let out a small whimper when he sucks your tongue. Your small sound officially drove him crazy.

His mind is racing with a hundred thoughts of what he wants to do to you. As he deepens the kiss, he imagines how these lips of yours would feel around his cock. You would look so pretty looking up at him, gagging around his length because its too much for you.

It's just a fantasy for now. He won't do anything tonight that would scare you.

"Tell me, princess, have you kissed anyone before?" Your eyes looked glossy and your lips swollen from kissing. He runs a finger over your lips as he wait for your answer.

"N-No."

"Not even a merman?"

"You're the only one I've kissed. The only man I've been with whether on land or seas."

"Good." He feels satisfied with your answer and his chest swells with pride at the realization that he gets to be person that corrupts you.

"Can we kiss again?" He smiles at your request and takes your hand to lead you inside his room.

"We can do more than just kissing."

As you reach his room, he turns you around to kiss you again. This time with much more intensity. You let out pretty moans that are like music to his ears.

He lips go south to give your neck open mouthed kisses. He licks a spot just below your ear and this makes you arch your neck even more, giving him more access. He smiles against your skin as you become so responsive to him.

His hands roam on your body, from your waist, to your hips, down to where your ass is. He gives it a little squeeze and you jump in surprise at his action.

"Tell me if you want to stop, y/n."

"No, I was just surprised but I l-like it."

"Good girl."

Johnny holds your hips again and attaches his lips to your abused neck. This time, his hands roam inside your shirt. His fingers linger on the skin of your stomach before reaching for the clasp of your bra behind your back.

"Do mermaids really wear this?"

"N-No, Mrs. Zhong just told me its important to wear it." He undos your bra.

"You dont have to wear this anymore when you're with me." And you nod at his words. He moves his hand to cup your breasts and your eyebrows scrunch and you bite your lips at what he does. He can't wait to see all of you. So he takes the hem of your shirt and removes it from you.

He takes in your beautiful form. He looks closely at you as he plays with your nipples.

"J-Johnny..."

"My pretty pretty mermaid." Johnny dips his head to get a taste of you. He puts one nipple in his mouth and he sucks on it with the intention of turning your skin into swollen with his marks.

You gently pull Johnny's hair as he swirls his tongue on your nipple. And when he's had his fill, he guides you to lay down on his bed. In a swift move, he removes both your shorts and underwear. Leaving you fully naked for him.

You're a goddess, Johnny thinks. With your long hair all sprawled behind you, and your skin adorned with his love bites, he doesn't think you can get even more beautiful than this. You look so small and it drives him insane. He can't wait to ruin you.

He teases a finger over your core and you squirm away. So he holds your waist in place as he inserts a finger in you. You let out a moan from the penetration and when he feels that you've adjusted enough, he adds another digit in.

He watches you with lust as he pumps his finger in and out of you. The way your face contorts in pleasure and your hips remain in his hold, turn him even more.

"I feel something, Johnny.."

He feels your insides tighten and from this, he knows that you're about to come.

"Don't fight it princess, let go for me."

"Ahh!"

And like the good girl you are, you come on his fingers. Immediately, he dips his head into your core and suck the bundle of nerves as he curls his fingers inside of you.

"Wait, Johnny! T-too much!"

"Have to prep you well, princess. I dont want to hurt you later."

You grab a fistful of his hair as he overstimulates you even more. Your screams turn louder as he eats you into your second orgasm.

Johnny lifts his head from your core and licks his finger clean. He removes his pants and you see his cock spring free. He lays against the headboard and he looks at you with anticipation.

"Come here, Y/n." And you get up with your knees and come closer to where he is.

"Ride me." You're confused at what he means so he lifts you by your waist onto his thighs.

"This," he points to his cock, "goes inside this." he touches your core. You understand. And although he sees a bit of fear in your eyes, you follow Johnny. You align yourself with his cock and take in the tip.

You bite your lower lip at the burning feeling, but you continue to slide down.

"You're doing well my sweet girl. So good for me." Johnny's hands guide your waist to slide down even more.

"T-Too big."

"You can take it." Johnny becomes impatient and fully pushes you down on his cock.

"O-ohh! Johnny, it hurts!" He sees some tears in you eyes but he kisses them away.

"You'll feel good in a while, princess. Now, move for me." And you follow Johnny. You maintain eye contact with him as you bounce faster on his cock. He tightens the grip on your waist.

"You feel so tight around me, y/n. Shit!"

Johnny flips your positions and you're now under him. He pushes your legs even further from each other and he reaches deeper into you.

"A-Ahh... ahh. So good."

"Yeah? You like how that feels princess? Like how your pussy is getting ruined?"

"Yes, J-Johnny. It feels good. D-don't stop."

He continues to ram into you and when he feels you tighten, he increases his speed even more. He wants to feel you more, want to corrupt you more. He wants to fuck you until you beg for him.

Even when you come, he doesnt stop. The sound of his cock coming in and out of your pussy is an unholy one.

"W-wait Johnny."

He grabs your hands and pound into you some more. "Just a little more princess, I'm almost there."

He thrusts into you a few more times until he feels you squeezing him again. He relishes the feeling of you around him. He's blissed out with how good you feel.

"Fuck, come for me again, y/n."

And you do. This time, Johnny comes with you. And he pulls out just in time to release his cum on your stomach. He stares at your cum covered stomach and then at your face.

You look so pretty panting and sweaty. And this sight is all for him.

He grabs a towel and cleans you up. After that, he fixes your position on the bed to make sure you're comfortable.

You reach for his hand and he does the same to you. He looks at your eyes and gives you a gentle smile.

"Thank you for swimming to me, mermaid. I'll be the one to come to you now."

Pt. 1

Your obsession with the four men kept growing inside you and two days later, you found yourself once again close to the surface. It was easy to spot them, the water around you and them was deserted otherwise. Well, at least if you didn’t count the fish and other sea creatures.

Always keeping out of sight, you watched as they enjoyed their time in the water. Whether they were swimming, diving, snorkeling or just playing around, you stayed nearby. One on hand, you wanted to keep them safe. The sea was dangerous, you knew that firsthand, having to fight against bigger predators daily. But…there was something pulling you to them as well. When you first saw them, you were scared. After all, every time you met humans before, they tried to take you. Wrapped their hands around you, sometimes even used nets. But you always got away somehow.

“Oi! Johnny! Come back here!” You peeked out from behind the rock you were using to hide and saw one of the men on a floating thingy, slowly drifting out to sea. He was fast asleep, not realizing how far off he had gotten. Suddenly, your heart started to beat faster as you realized that he began to drift out to an area that was known for its strong currents.

Not thinking, you dove under the water and swam to him as quickly as you could. By the time you reached him, he seemed to have woken up, but he had also been caught by a current. Although he wasn’t threshing around, you could sense the panic boiling inside him.

You breached the surface right next to him and could immediately hear the others yelling at him to stay calm. But when the man caught the movement next to him and saw you, he shrieked and tumbled off the weird thing. The moment, he hit the water, he was pulled away by the current. You quickly grabbed him under his arms and pulled him back up, using your fin to keep you both afloat. “Wha-” He sputtered, looking at you with wide eyes.

You looked right back, still holding him, before motioning for him to hold his breath. The moment he did, you dove back under and pulled him along, using the strength of your fin to navigate the both of you out of the current and back towards the beach, where the others were still waiting.

As soon as it was shallow enough, you let go of the man and turned around, about to swim away, when someone else called out. “Wait!” You hesitated, glancing back to see an older man with a beard, slowly walking toward you. His hands were raised and you quickly realized that he was the man that freed you. When he noticed that you weren’t about to bolt away, he lowered his hands again and smiled at you so sweetly. “Thank you. For saving that idiot.” He pointed to the still gasping individual, who, even though he looked as if he had just swam an atlantisthon, still managed to grin at you and send you a wink. “Aye, thank you bonnie.”

You were quickly joined by the other two, but the one that spoke first, made sure they didn’t get too close, so they wouldn’t spook you. “Do you…Can you understand us?” You slowly nodded, and the man chuckled, looking at you with sparkling eyes. “That’s good. My name’s John. These are Johnny, Simon, and Kyle.” You took all of them in. They looked like warriors, well built and covered in scars - some more than others - but they also looked so…nice. Not something you ever thought of the mer-warriors. Quietly, almost too quiet, you whispered your own name back, your voice breaking, not used to you speaking. The man repeated it just as quietly, almost as if trying how it sounded from his lips and you couldn’t help but smile at all of them.

And so, an unlikely friendship began. Every day, you would join them on the beach, show them tricks, win breath-holding contests and play with them. At some point, late at night, you found yourself sitting in the shallow water with the silent one of the group. Both of you so still, that fish had started to swim around you. With a smile, you started to play with it, not noticing Simon staring at you. “You’re beautiful.” Wide-eyed, you turned to look at him, surprised to see him smiling softly at you. Your mouth opened and closed, not knowing what to say, but he just leaned over and pressed a soft kiss to your cheek, before getting to his feet and trudging back to the building on the beach. “See you tomorrow.”

The next day, you noticed them growing more affectionate. Their touches more intent and lingering for longer. Their bodies were suddenly much closer to yours and their eyes were constantly on you. But when John gently cupped your face while the others were getting food from inside, you pulled back, fear in your eyes. He looked surprised, stunned, and confused. “I-I’m sorry if that was too much. I promise I would never do anything without your permission.” Your chest heaved as you breathed quickly, fear clawing at your heart. “W-When humans kiss us…we…we become human too.” John’s eyes widened and he stumbled back, stuttering further apologies, but you just turned around and swam away, still scared. But at the same time, there was a small voice in the back of your head, asking if it truly would be so bad to be a human. To be with them.

73 / remora reader and shark!141

...

You dart into the reef to hide, tail flashing silver behind you. You're not taking chances again yet.

Soap pivots and locks his gaze on your hiding spot instinctively. Before he can chase after you, Ghost speaks up.

"Quit terrorizing the cleaner fish."

Soap snorts. His body relaxes, but two beats of his long tail carry him down to the reef anyway. He's never been able to resist his overactive prey drive. "Wasn't me." He circles, fingers brushing multicolor spines and blooms as if testing for weaknesses. "Thought we agreed no games before breakfast."

"I'm not playing," you mumble.

Soap finds your hiding spot. He braces his forearms against the reef above your head. His shadow engulfs you completely, cool and safe. "Aye? Your wee tail's still twitchin' like bait."

Embarrassment prickles across your skin. You look away from him and smoothe your palms down your tail, cleaning your scales nervously. "Never mind."

Soap tilts his head. He winds his arm around the sharp edges of broken fan coral to skim the curve of your tail with his knuckle. You settle his larger hand in yours and pick at the grit under his claws in silence. Soap's turns his hand palm-up so you can fuss with it properly. His knuckles are split from sparring with Ghost, and his forearm bears faint bite marks from that same rogue barracuda mer who picked a fight. "C'mon. Out you pop. I won't tell Price you're still jumpin' at shadows if you clean my teeth."

You startle. Price? "Is he mad?"

Soap smirks and flexes his fingers in your stilled hands. "Nah. Just grumpin' that some arsepiece’s scarin' off his favorite wee perch." His teeth flash in the dappled light. "Unless you'd rather he hear how you've been hidin' scraps from him again."

"I have not!"

Soap leans in. His broad shoulders completely block the light filtering through the coral. The faint scar on his cheek creases with his smirk. " Then why's there two cuttlebones and a clamshell picked clean under that brain coral?"

An irate twitch prickles down your spine and makes your dorsal fins stand up. He knows for a fact that you never ever steal food. You just like to collect the trinkets sometimes. You're saving those bones for something specific.

"That's what I thought. Come, come, out ye get."

You let him use your grip on his hand to pull you out of your hiding spot. He could never wedge his way inside, thanks to the sharp stone and broken coral around it. Your much smaller body glides through easily. The coral ghosts past your scales but leaves red nicks on his bicep. He doesn't seem to notice.

You curl into his chest and cling there as he settles onto the sand beside Ghost.

Ghost doesn’t lift his head from where it’s pillowed on his scarred forearms, but you feel his eyes. Sunlight catches the jagged edge of his fin, freshly torn from the same skirmish. His tail flicks once as you settle against Soap’s chest. “Quit dragging her out into the open. You'll just make her more skittish.”

Soap’s chest vibrates with a laugh that curls your fins. “Nah, she likes havin’ someone bigger to cling on. You’re just jealous it’s not you.”

Ghost glares at Soap. Then the weight of his gaze drops squarely onto you. The more you pretend to busy yourself with cleaning Soap's scratched arm, the longer it leaves Ghost to stare in silence at the puckered red lines down your back and remember how they billowed with fresh blood.

He's been quick to anger since that fight. You're sure he blames you for inciting the whole thing.

"Just as well the bastard took a chunk out of you," he mutters. "If that's how you learn to keep away from threats you can't suck up to."

You tense. Soap’s fingers tighten around your waist. "Leave off." He tilts his wrist to brush one of your knuckles with his thumb. It's a patient gesture from a beast like Soap toward a nervous bottom feeder like you. "Don't know how you've still got so much sand in your gills. It's been days since that fight. The rest of us might as well have forgotten it already."

Ghost doesn't answer. His gaze drags again over the half-healed claw marks striping almost to your shoulders. His stare lingers too long on the deepest one—the one that nearly snagged your spine when he'd been too slow to intercept the barracuda's strike. You've not cleaned them as well as you should. He has half a mind to yank you sideways from Soap’s grip and make you take care of yourself better. Stupid little good-for-nothing.

You wait in the crook of Soap's arm until he and Ghost settle into silence again. Then you shift yourself up to Soap's shoulder and begin busying yourself with cleaning his teeth. You keep your gaze trained down on your work.

Soap tips his head back and slackens his jaw to give you better access. His incisors glint in the filtered sunlight. The metallic tang of old blood clings to his molars. You work methodically, plucking shreds of kelp and bone fragments from between his teeth with your smaller fingers and ignoring the way his throat bobs when your thumb grazes the corner of his lips. You feel him begin to shift in playful arousal under you.

Ghost’s tail flicks again. Closer this time. “Fuck’s sake.”

Soap’s throat rumbles with a laugh before you can react. “Bet she’d fix you up just as nice if you stopped glowerin’ long enough to ask. I swear you’re just sore ‘cause nobody’s offered to clean your fangs or your cock since the last time Gaz and I—”

“Finish that sentence,” he growls, “and I’ll tear out your spine for a toothpick.”

"Clean him next, then," Soap tells you mildly. "Teeth and everything else. Good n' proper." He shoots Ghost a cheeky look. "She’ll fix ye up right if ye just ask, see? Then again, maybe ye’ve forgotten how to ask for anythin’ that isn’t a knife to the ribs.”

You nick your knuckle on Soap’s tooth. A bead of blood wells up, swirling crimson in the water between you. Soap’s nostrils flare—a shark catching scent. He laps the cut with a rough swipe of his tongue before you can pull away.

Ghost’s tail slams into the sand. The force of it sends a shockwave through the water that scatters a nearby school of damselfish. He’s between you and Soap before you can blink. One rough hand grabs your tail to pull you backward off Soap’s chest. His grip is mean, but the way he angles his body between you and Soap’s nipping teeth is protective. He clamps his other hand around Soap’s throat and shoves him flat against the sand. “Don’t play with her like food.” Then he turns on you. “You’re a liability.”

You nod and lower your gaze.

It only seems to piss him off more. “Stop flinching. You’re acting like bleeding chum in open water. Do you want another mer to take a bite out of you?”

Soap shoves Ghost away. "Pick on someone higher up the food chain, ya fuckin’ weapon.”

“No.” Ghost’s gaze snaps back to you. The predatory stillness in him is worse than Soap’s chaos. “She’ll keep being jumpy until she fixes herself up.”

Soap’s grin sharpens like he’s enjoying toying with Ghost—distracting him on your behalf. "Aye, there's his old soft spot. Makes a right pretty nurse, eh?”

Soap grins when Ghost lunges at him—but you scrambling to get clear of their tussle is what actually stops both short. Ghost freezes, watching you retreat toward the reef again with a tension in his shoulders that wasn’t there before.

Soap blinks. Then groans. “Christ, Simon. You’ll never get her to trust you if you keep snapping like a—”

Ghost silences him with a rough shove before swimming off toward the deeper trenches.
