Bryan

I found my mate. I found my freaking mate!! Wake up Coral! Now if only I could speak. My mate smirked.

"I'm Bryan. And you are Coral right?" How does he know my name? "Aha! So it is your name. And to answer your question, I can read minds." Wow. Cool.

"You're a shape-shifter." I got out.

"Yeah. And you're a mermaid. And my mate."

"How'd you know I'm a mermaid?"

"I smell the salt water on you."

"Smell? Do I smell bad?" I asked sniffing my arm.

"No no. No. You smell wonderful." I blushed. "I mean um. I like the smell of salt water. It reminds me of swimming." He scratched the back of his head. "Wow. You're really pretty." he said , making me blush again.

"Thank you." I said biting my lip. I looked at him and noticed he was only wearing boxers. He must have read my mind because he looked down and blushed.

"I should go put some clothes on."

"Yeah. That would probably be a good idea." We laughed.

"I'll see you later, Coral." he said waving and heading off towards the office. I smiled and started towards the gym.
