Inspired by the movie -Luca-

Andy POV
"Are you for real?" I asked my best friend while looking at the boat in front of us.
I mean it was definitely a boat from like a century ago but Sonny insisted with this boat trip and I couldn't say no to him.
"Don't be dramatic. It's gonna be fun"
"I'm not being dramatic but if we drown in the middle of nowhere I'm gonna blame you" I glared at him.
After some difficulties, we managed to row far away from the shore without falling off the boat.
It was kinda nice and Sonny decided to stop in the middle of nowhere to breathe in the real essence of the ocean or some bullshit that he said.
"Doesn't it feel good? To be here just the 2 of us without any drama or problem..." Sonny said laying down on the boat.
"Yeah...it's been a while"
Nothing serious happened but school is always stressful and both of us really needed some time off so even tho I felt like the boat was about to break at any moment, I was happy to be there with my best friend.
"Hey, I know this cool bay and we can start a fire there" Sonny suggested breaking the melancholic mood that started to surround us.
I agreed and not only cause I was in the mood for s'mores.

"Are you sure this is the right way? Cause people say that here weird things happen..." I mean, I usually don't believe in those things but once they saw some weird fishes and probably a human with a tail and honestly I didn't want to stay there to find out if it was true or not.
"Andy, you need to chill. They are just legends, not even kids believe in them" Sonny said while keeping rowing.
I sat back and looked around in case the boat collided with some rocks since we were pretty close to the shore.
Then while I was looking around, I saw something shining under the water and when I was about to grab it, thinking that it was a piece of jewelry or something like that, it disappeared.
"Did you see that?" I asked panicking a bit.
"What?"
"The shiny thing...there...in the water" I stuttered cause I wasn't going crazy...right?
"Mate, you worry me sometimes" Sonny shook his head and hopped off the boat to pull it up the shore.
I breathed in and decided to forget it, we were there to relax so that was what I was gonna do.

We secured the boat to the shore then Sonny started the fire while I grabbed the beers and the food we brought.
"Do you remember the first day of school?" Sonny asked out of the blue while looking at the calm waves in front of us.
I cringed at the memory.
I was so whipped for this guy that I met the previous summer but he was an asshole.
So yeah, for the first couple of months I couldn't stop talking about him.
"We promised to never talk about him again" I said sipping my beer.
"He was an asshole but it was kinda funny seeing you that whipped for someone" Sonny laughed and I hid my face in my hands.
"He was...a mistake ok? I don't think about him anymore" I stated.
"Thank god, I might add" Sonny joked and I pushed him off the rock he was sitting on making him fall in the sand.
"You're being mean to me so I will go for a swim"

The water was kinda cold but nothing unbearable.
I swam around for I bit when I saw the shiny thing again and this time I went underwater to see what it was and I couldn't believe my eyes, I was definitely going crazy.
A freaking mermaid was in front of me...like a real one just like in the movies.
She saw me and swam away as fast as she could.
I did the same but not cause I was scared, Sonny had to witness it too.
"Sonny! Mate! You have to see it. Come on!" I was panting.
"Hey chill"
The mermaid was already gone.
"Are you ok?" He asked concerned.
I looked behind me at the water.
"I-I..."
"Listen, you need to calm down. It's ok" Sonny said with a soft voice.
Probably I imagined it so I listened to Sonny and we just chilled.
We talked, ate tons of s'mores and drank beers all night.

-the next day-
I didn't sleep at all the previous night cause I couldn't stop thinking about the mermaid, I wasn't crazy.
So since Sonny was busy that day, I decided to go back there and prove to myself that I was right.
I got to the exact same point, hopeful to see the creature again.
The water was calm and crystal clear and I could see clearly through it like it was glass.
Then out of nowhere, I saw a shiny tail, the mermaid.
I followed it with my gaze but when she saw me she got scared and swam away.
I just wanted to talk so I followed her but another creature blocked my way and looked at me with a stern look.
If looks could kill I would have been already dead at least three times.
Also if I wasn't scared to death I would have thought that he was the most beautiful creature ever.
With perfect and smooth skin, wet and brown hair, piercing eyes and a tail that shined like diamonds under the sun.
"Lizzy just go home!" He said to the mermaid.
Then his eyes were back on me and I stopped breathing for a second.
"What were you thinking?!" The creature said but I was too focused on his beauty.
"I- you're a..."
"Yeah, I'm a male mermaid. Cool. What were you thinking with my sister? You wanted to kill her?"
"No, God no. I-I saw her the other day and got curious. There are legends about creatures like you..." I explained while trying to stay afloat.
"All legends are true as we say in the sea world..." he simply said.
"But you shouldn't be here. It's not a place for humans" he added but when he was about to go away I stopped him.
He looked at my hand that was around his wrist and coughed lightly.
"I-I want to know more..." I said moving away my hand.
I looked at him with my best puppy eyes and apparently, it worked cause he sighed and silently nodded.
"Just...stay close to me and don't do anything stupid"
I nodded my head and before I could do anything his lips were on me.
My mind was screaming and my body was frozen like I don't even know his name.
When he pulled away, I tried to hide my blush as best as I could but he noticed it anyway.
"It's so you can breathe underwater, don't be weird about it. Plus you're too...human for me"
