Tatiana or more commonly known as Tate was an Icelander who saw the beauty in everything, literally. She saw the beauty in starvation and being abandoned, maybe because she was an unusual child, the only one who had run-ins with the man from the sea...
We were happily dating, I never thought we'd get to this stage. We'd even moved in together but still in my house, most of the town knew but no one spoke about it so no one would ever be in danger "mhm, you are gorgeous, you know that?" I continued making breakfast for us but he wasn't exactly making it easy for me with all the compliments being showered over me, he'd already called me a 'goddess' at least twenty times and we'd only been up a little while "guðdómur minn í landinu , Ég hef skipað frídegi (my goddess of the land, I've arranged a day off)" I looked to see him smiling, I was surprised he had spoken Icelandic "Af hverju? er eitthvað að gerast? (How come? Is something going on?)"I put his breakfast on a plate and put it in front of him "Getur ekki strákur gert eitthvað fyrir stelpuna sína án þess að hafa ástæðu? (Can't a guy do something for his girl for no reason?)" I kissed his forehead gently smiling "svo það er bara ég og þú í dag, ég eins og...(so it's just me and you today, I like that...)"
He suddenly got up and started dancing with me, I'd only recently told him that in school, we were taught to dance professionally, I was one of those few who chose to continue my profession but stopped when my mother died. He'd taken an interest in that and now he's get up and slow dance with me at any second "how about a day at the beach hmm?" I raised my eyebrow "Ertu ekki bara að segja það svo þú getir synda í burtu?( your not just saying that so you can swim away?)" he narrowed his eyes at me smirking "og af hverju myndi ég yfirgefa einhvern eins falleg og þú?hmm?( and why would I leave someone as beautiful as you?hmm?)" I put my hands on his chest and sighed "you talk to the redhead a lot, she's a lot prettier than I am" he kissed me softly while his hands moved from my waist to my face cupping it "you are the one I love, Tate. Always will be. Mera is just a friend from Atlantis, I promise. Nothing more" I went upstairs to change secretly putting my bikini on then a coat.

I stood on the beach watching Arthur in the water which was normally very cold this time of year, it was official, he was insane. And hot with no shirt on. "You sure your not swimming away?" He turned to me "and leave you there? I'm not that inhuman" I smirked looking down as I started to unveil my clothes leaving me in my jeans and black bra, I swayed through the cold water towards my boyfriend. He didn't try to hide him checking me out which caused me to blush slightly. I leaned up pressing my lips to his softly, the kiss deepened as his hands found my jaw and as my own once again felt his chest. The water wasn't even that cold anymore, my legs felt numb but that could of been cause of Arthur being semi nude, maybe the water was still cold? I just wanted to enjoy the moment we had. His hands slowly left my face and the space between us returned. He gave me devilish eyes "I got you something" I tilted my head curiously "oh?" He pulled a beautiful necklace out from behind him, I turned around so that he could put it on me "það er fallegt, takk. ég elska það (It's beautiful, thank you. I love it)" he kissed my face gently "now you know how I feel about you"

This time my blush was impossible to hide "trúðu mér núna?(believe me now?)" I nodded smiling, then we went back to making out in the sea, then he did what I didn't expect, dropped onto one knee and pulled out a box "I can't stand it anymore, Tatiana Meminger, will you make me the best half fish half human and marry me?" I nodded through tears "yes, oh my god yes, of course" he looked relieved "you really afraid I was gonna say no?" He kissed me gently after putting the ring on my finger "you can be very stubborn and you said you wouldn't marry a fisherman" I narrowed my eyes at him "your not a fisherman, your a fish-man. There's very big difference" he caressed my face lovingly "How about we tie the knot, tomorrow? You said you couldn't wait so don't" we agreed we'd get officially married tomorrow and spend our honeymoon here in Iceland which I would take a couple weeks off work.
We went back to our home needing each other more than ever.
