Perfect Catch

Yugo continued to stare at his phone. He had just received a message from Crow, inviting him around a friend's house with some apparent news. "Yugo," Yuri called from the door wat of the living room. "The bath is ready."  Yuri pouted as he realised Yugo wasn't paying attention to him. He hopped over to his boyfriend, wrapping his arms around his waist from behind. "Yuuugoo, please pay attention."

Yuri whined, though Yugo still seemed away with the fairies. Yugo was still confused on what news could Crow have to tell him. Getting more annoyed Yuri smirked at his plan, he moved his left-hand down Yugo's body, making sure the contact never left. His hand stopped playing with the button of his boyfriend's jeans. Yugo's eye widened as he heard the button snap. He grabbed Yuri's hand turning to see Yuri smirking in victory. "Sorry, did I space out again?" Yugo asked.

"Just a little," Yuri laughed. "What's wrong? Whatever that text says really has you thinking?"

"We've been invited by Crow to his friend's house tomorrow," Yugo sighed. "Just got me thinking why? He says there's some news that we just have to be there for."

Yuri moved his arms to sit on Yugo's shoulders. "Well, perhaps it's good news then," He tried to assure. "Now, why don't you come with me? The bath is going to get cold and if I'm in there by myself I'll get very lonely."

Yugo smiled in a mischievous way. "We can't have that," He laughed licking his lips.

The following day, around midday Yugo found himself making his way to the address Crow had given him. He was still nervous but there wasn't much he was able to do at this point, he had already agreed to show up. As they walked Yuri tried his best to comfort his ever-worrying boyfriend but nothing seemed to get though Yugo's thick skull.

As they neared their destination Yugo realised that were approaching the beach. With the sun at its highest peak he couldn't help but look over at the calm ocean. "Just think," Yuri smiled wrapping himself around his boyfriend's arm. "This isn't far from when I first showed you." Yugo smiled knowing what Yuri meant. It was the caverns close by where Yuri revealed to Yugo, he was a mermaid, seeing his boyfriend with his pink tail for the first time sent shivers down his spine. "Oh, looks like we're here."

Yugo look up at the large house. It was slightly intimating as they rang the doorbell. Though muffled, Yugo swore he could hear familiar voices on the other side. The door opened revealing an excitable Yuya. "Hi Yuri," He greeted before turning to Yugo. "You must be Yuri's mate?"

Yuri laughed as Yugo went silent. "This is Yugo," He introduced. "I didn't realise you where the friend Crow was talking about."

"Yeah," Yuya jumped slightly in excitement. "We have something amazing to tell you. Come in, Lulu made tea."

"Lulu?" Yugo raised an eyebrow, thinking about it for a moment. "Oh, she's Selena's friend, right?"

Yuri nodded. "They went to school along with Rin," Yuri explained. "You should remember all this, Rin has told you many times."

Once they were in the living room, Yuya told Yuri to sit next to him, so that he could explain some things while Yugo stood abandoned in the door. Crow grinned as he came up, throwing an arm over Yugo's shoulder to hug him tightly. With his thumb he pointed in Yuya and Yuri's direction who were currently talking to an unfamiliar red head. "That cutie is my girl," Crow bragged with a blush. "She's Yuya's sister, Emi." Yuya's sister? Yugo thought. Then that means she's a mermaid too. "Oh, and don't worry, I'm as clueless as you."

"You, bird brain?" Yugo laughed sarcastically earning a punch in the arm. "I'm guess you got dragged here too, then?"

"Emi said Yuya and Yuto have important news for all of us," Crow explained taking his arm back. "Something that will be, hopefully change the way we all live."

With that said Yugo was more confused, thought he didn't have to wonder it as Yuto asked for everyone to take a seat. Yuto stood in front of them, obviously nervous about what he was going to say. Yuri took the chance to seat next to Yugo, holding his arm tightly. Yuya jumped happily next to Yuto. "Well, first thing first," Yuto sighed nervously. "I found at recently that my father was a mermaid." Gasps were heard from Yugo, Yuri and Crow. "My mother left me a note telling me how she met my farther and how they feel in love. Though the reason I called you call here is because this affects all of us, particularly Yuri, Yuya and Emi. In the note my mother talked about how my farther became human."

Yuri's eyes widen, tears threatened to fall and is grip on his boyfriend became tighter. "S-so it's possible?" He said, lip trembling. Yuto simply nodded. "But, how is it?"

"That's the thing," Yuya continued one. "We know it's possible but not how yet. An old friend of my parents will be visiting and will help us understand what to do." Yuya smiled as he knelt in front of a tearful Yuri. "Out of all of us Yuri, you decided to know most, living here for so long and holding back on mating with the love of your life. Yuri we can become human together."

Everyone looked on in awe at Yuri and Yugo. Yugo took his arm from his boyfriend and hugged him tightly. Yuri couldn't help but allow the tears to fall at this point. He was overjoyed, he could finally give himself full to Yugo and not worry about anything anymore. They could finally live a happy life together. "Thank you," Yugo said looking up to Yuto, who smiled in return. "Thank you."

I have started to draft up Yuri and Yugo's edition of this story. Struggling for a name though 🤔

On the bright side I found the perfect picture for the cover.
