I was giggling while hugging him, happy tears ran down my cheeks, I don't know why I was crying but I just was.
Slowly I broke the hug and giggled as I looked at him, he looked happy as he was grinning widely while his eyes were shining.
"I promise to always be there with you."
He said as he held my hands.
I chuckled and kissed his knuckle as his grin immediately broke to a wide smile, the smile being similar as a kid in a candy store.
He brought me closer and pulled me into another hug, I stood still as I savored the feelings of his hands wrapped around me as I felt the warmth of our bodies against eachother.
I could hear his heart beating.
Thud.
Thud.
Thud.
I nuzzled closer into his chest to hear the heartbeat as it immediately started to bear louder.
Thud.
Thud.
Thud.
I giggled as I listened to his heart beat.
I felt his hands run threw my hair before going to my back.
I giggled more as I looked up at him to see him looking down at me.
"So, about the contract."
I say before adding.
"How long will we be engaged for?"
I expected approximately a year, maybe two before the literal wedding takes place since there'd always be so many preparations and all.
"Three months."
My jaw dropped.
"Three months? That's so early...how will the preparations be done?"
He chuckled before leaning in and whispering.
"The wedding will take place in three months, the wedding is always taken inside of a hole made beside the ocean waves, its somewhere under a cliff, and whenever someone gets married they get married over there, its a tradition. On the same night of the wedding a ritual takes place to make both same, so if the wife or husband is human the one who is a mermaid or merman has to take the ritual with them to they're also a mermaid or merman, but in our case, its different."
He explains.
"Different? How?"
I mutter as I watch him continue.
"In our case we both have to take a ritual, you need to take a ritual to be a mermaid and I need to take the ritual to be a vampire, that's the only way for every marriage in my tradition for the offspring's to share the same power as the parents or different power that the parents used to possess naturally. So you'd be twenty five percent mermaid, twenty seven percent vampire, and 48 percent human, while I'd also be the same or slightly different."
I listened to his words before my cheeks heated up.
"Hold on, offspring's?"
I say as he nods.
"So, you mean we need to conduct this ritual for our offspring's so they hold the same power of possess another power?"
He nods again.
I hear him chuckle before he looks down at me.
"Don't worry, there will be no offspring's of ours right now, we just need to make a few wedding preparations and set up a time for the wedding to take place, by the time we finish it would've taken three months and the marriage would take place."
I immediately calm down.
"Whatever you say."
I whisper as I break the hug.
I watch him take the contract and put it up somewhere before he looks down at me.
"I need to finish this, alright?"
I say as I sit back down and start typing again on my computer.
I could hear his whines and protest's of him wanting to stay with me.
"Whyyyy??? Can't I stay beside you?"
He nags.
"Fuck no, you can't."
That sounded harsh as I could hear him whimper.
"But why?"
He then started to make puppy eyes, fuck.
This guy's going to be the death of me.
"If you go then once I'm done I'll go to you."
"Why? Can't I sit beside you while you type?"
"You can't."
"Why?"
"Because you'll distract me."
Immediately after that I see him have his signature grin in his face.
"How?"
His voice is low, almost like he knows the answer and is saying it rhetorically.
"You'll make me want to stop typing and come up to wrap my arms around you, pull you closer. And savor the feeling of it."
I sighed before adding.
"And also I need to finish this, so could you please go?"
I hear him chuckle before he leaves the room, I could hear him singing on his way out.
He's like a distraction that I can't seem to escape from.
