Mermaid Tears (Mermaid Elsa x Male Reader)

Ch 03 - Mermaids

You were pacing a bit thinking, you had just accepted the deal from Prince Hans, but you still had one problem... How were you going to break the news to Anna and Olaf? You just got home, how were you going to explain that you were going out to sea again with it being this close to winter to find and capture a sea creature that could easily kill you.

You sat down in a chair, took off your hat and ran a hand through your (H/C) hair sighing, "(Y/N) is something wrong?" it was your sister, you looked up and you saw she was now wearing the dress Hans gave her. It was a green dress that looked like one Anna would wear to a coronation or something like that.

"Wow, you look amazing." You said and Anna looked down and twirled around in the dress.

"You really think so?" she said, but then she looked up, "Wait are you saying that to avoid my question?" Damn, she had gotten better at seeing through you.

"Well I was being honest, but yes." You admitted.

Anna's eyes held genuine concern, "C'mon you can tell me." she said walking over and sitting next to you.

"I know I can," you said, "you're just not going to like it." you added, when Anna gave you that 'little sister' look you gave in, "I'm going back out to sea."

Anna gasped, "What? You can't go, at least not now. Winter is coming and you just got back. I mean what am I going to do I can't take care of Olaf during the winter without you-" you covered Anna's mouth with your hand to stop your rambling.

"Anna, let me explain myself before you start chewing me out okay?" you said and Anna nodded, you sighed, "Prince Hans gave me an offer that I just couldn't refuse. Listen this job will only take a few weeks maybe even a month, then I'll be right back." You said, "When the whole thing is done Hans will give us an incredibly huge reward, we could move away to a better location where I won't have to leave for such long periods of time."

"But what about me and Olaf, what will we do while you're gone?" she asked.

"Prince Hans is going to ask the king if it'll be okay to have the two of you stay here until I get back." You explained and Anna looked like she was close to defeat.

"W-well possibly, but what about..." she said with tears coming to her eyes before hugging you, "Whenever you go out to sea... I-I m-miss you too much." She said the sadness clear in her voice. You hugged your sister, "Every time you leave I always think that you might not come back." Anna said.

"Hey," you said softly before pulling away and wiping some of her tears away, "I'm going to come back, I always do don't I?" you said. "I'm making you a promise Anna," you said to her, "no matter what happens, I will not stop trying to get home to you and Olaf. If something happens to my ship, keep watching the seas for the dolphins I'll be riding on into the harbor."

Anna giggled, "You still remember that?" she asked, she once told you something about you riding dolphins back home if you ever lost your ship.

You smiled, "I never forget things like that."

Anna gave a slight smile, "You promise you'll come back?"

You drew an 'x' over your heart, "Cross my heart, besides, you'll be fan girling over the prince so much the weeks I'm gone will just fly by." Anna punched you playfully in the shoulder. You laughed.

A few days had passed and you had gathered your crew for another adventure on the stormy seas. Prince Hans had provided a lot of supplies required for sailing on a journey like this, including a Courier Falcon so you could report your progress back home. It was morning and there was a slight amount of fog, "Captain I knew you were crazy," your first mate said as he handed you the second to last crate to be put on the ship, "but this is a whole new level even for you." He said as he picked up the last crate.
