AUTHORS NOTE

HELLO MERPEOPLE! thanks for reading my story. I hope you enjoy all the great puns I make. As for updating I will try and update twice a week. I'll probably mainly update on Fridays and Saturdays because of hell (school) 

Anyway I hope you enjoy!

“Kiss me,” Harry whispered.

I hovered where I was. I couldn’t answer all I could do is look into his seaweed green eyes. His eyes told me all I needed to know. He wanted to kiss me. But did I want to kiss him? My father would surely murder me once he finds out Harry is really a mermaid and only here temporarily. If he was a permanent merman then I would be all up on him for sure.

I always overthink things. I know I’m overthinking this whole Harry thing. Should I just kiss him? Just for the fun of it? Or should I save my feelings from getting hurt in the future?

“You know if you don’t answer we’ll never know,” He broke my thoughts.

Instead of answering I swam to him, breaking the distance between our bodies. Our scales were touching each other. I loved the way it felt. I could see the air bubbles escaping his mouth. His eyes looked desperate.

I pressed my lips against his. Our lips were moving in synch together. This wasn’t like our other kisses. Well the two there were. This one held something in it. Something I couldn’t place my tail on.

His hands found their way around my body, pulling me closer. Our tails hitting each other lightly from treading the water to stay up.

My hands found their way into his hair, massaging it, and pulling it causing a groan to escape from Harry. My mouth opened and he slid his tongue in. Woah that was new. I liked it though. We continued this new activity until Click Click screeched out, “HEEEEYYYYYYY.” What a flop block.

I pulled away from Harry. A rosy blush evident on my cheeks. He had a smirk on his face as he stared into my dark sand colored eyes. All I could do was stare back. I was usually sink away and avoid eye contact with other mermaids, but with Harry I was comfortable.

“HEEEEEYYYYYYYY,” screamed Click Click.

I turned my head to see what Click Click was screaming at. She was staring straight at us. I knew she was judging us.

“I-I better give her some grapes,” I stuttered out picking up Click Click.

Harry nodded. I could’ve swore I heard him mumble a ‘dammit’ under his breath, but I couldn’t be sure.

“So……” Harry dragged out, “About what just happened.”

“Yeaaaahhhh.”

“What was that?”

“A kiss, Harry.”

“You don’t say. What does it mean to you?”

I let out a huff. “I don’t know Harry. What did it mean to you?”

He seemed to think hard about it. “I think it meant that I like you.”

“You can’t like me, Harry.”

“Why not?”

“We’re two entirely different species! Once you heal you’ll go back on land, and I’ll stay here!”

It was quiet.

“But that doesn’t stop me from liking you.”

“It should.”

“But I-“ I cut him off.

“Harry no. We can’t. We should just stay friends.”

He swam quickly over to me and pressing his slightly chapped lips onto mine causing me to drop Click Click. “Heeyyy.” He kissed me like I had never been kissed before. Never had I felt such passion or desire in one kiss before.

“Do you kiss all your friends like that,” he breathed out.

“No.”

Harry and I were sitting on my large clam bed talking about nothing and everything. That’s the thing about us we could talk about anything. He made me forget about everything.

“Harry tell me about the boys on the boat.”

“What do you wanna know?”

“Who are they? How do you know them?”

“We’re in a band together. It’s called One Direction.” He seemed to think for a minute before going on, “There’s five of us. There’s Niall, Zayn, Liam, and Louis.”

“Tell me about them. What do admire most about each one.”
“You saw them on the boat didn’t you?” I gave him a nod as a yes, “Well Niall is the blonde one. He eats a lot. I envy how he’s always full of energy and sees only the good in people. That’s one of his flaws too, only seeing the good in people. He’s been hurt so often from it. I feel for him.

I’ll tell you about Zayn next. Zayn is the quiet mysterious one out of our band. He likes his alone time. He usually disappears off to someplace, but eventually he comes back. What I like most about him is his looks. I know that sounds weird but you saw him right? Let’s see who’s next? Oh Liam. Well Liam is afraid of spoons.” What the heck was a spoon?! “He’s like the dad of our group. He’s always looking after us and being responsible. That’s what I admire about him. I could never handle all of us like the way he does.” He ends with a smile.

“What about the one that saw us Harry?”

“That’s-that’s Louis,” he looked pained to say. “He’s my best friend. He understands me like none of the other boys. He’s so energetic and so full of life. He cuddles the best and Boobear is always sarcastic, but the good kind. He’s the hermit to my crab. This is the longest I’ve ever been away from him and it pains me,” he stopped, “what I like most about him is just him in general. There is no flaw in him.” He ends with a smile.

“They seem like great people.”

“They truly are.”

There was knock on my door. I swam up to open it revealing Mafisha.

“Dad wants to talk to you.”

“Okay……… Harry I’ll be right back.”

I swim down the hall of our sand crusted castle to my father’s corriders.  I enter the room. He’s reading the kelp paper that gives us all the latest news.

“Hey daddy Mafisha said you wanted to talk to me.”

He looked confused, “I never told her that.”

“Then why would she tell me that?”

He just shrugged and went back to reading the kelp paper. I turned and started swimming back to my room. My door was closed and I remembered leaving it open. Maybe Harry closed it.

I open the door. I couldn’t believe my eyes. There hovered Mafisha and Harry. Kissing.

“What the deep sea,” I seathed.
