I hardly slept weighing up the odds. Do I want to be human really?

I can't... I can't give up my voice.

How do I get her to love me if I can't talk to her?

I laid staring at the ceiling.

She probably has forgotten about me. I closed my eyes and all I could see is her. She was beautiful.

Maybe... I need to see her. I packed my things and snuck out again. I found a dolphin willing to let me to on their back. They were so much faster.

It didn't take long on a dolphins back to get to shore. I sat on the stone looking at the castle. This part of the beach was empty. It must be private? I looked around making sure no one saw me. Is she even home? Does she even remember me?

I waited a few hours..I should go this isn't helping anything. But as I turn I see her. Coming down the steps. I jumped off the rock and hide behind.

She took off her shoes and stepped into the ocean. She looked out... She looked sad. "Who was he?" She said out loud. My eyes widen as I stare at her. Does she mean me?

Why is she sad? And why does seeing her sad hurt...me.

I stared at her as she looked down splashing the sea with her bare feet. Was she looking for me? Maybe I should show myself.. I went to come out when I saw another human running down the steps.

"Tia" they shouted. Her name is tia. I smiled to myself. "What namjoon?" She shouted. "Keep coming here isn't going to make some man appear. It's private property" he grinned at her. "He might thou-" she said but she was cut off. "No he won't" he smiled at her. "I get you want to thank him but your obsessed" he laughed at her.

She has been looking for me? I felt my checks burn up.

"You won't understand" she sighed.

Does she really want to met me? I need to met her.

"Come and not have your head in the clouds. Who ever he was isn't interested. Other wise he be back" Namjoon said to her as he sat on the sand. "Then why... how did he save me?" She asked as she looked back at him. "Maybe it was a fishamens boat. They realised who you was and dumped you" he said. "And Sung to me?" She laughed at him. "I don't know. Anyway get your head out the clouds! Let's go eat" he began walking away.

I wish she would look at this rock and spot me... but she didn't. She left...

Did she really want to met her rescuer? Being the curious type I need to know.

I went back into the ocean and swam to jimins mothers. Jimin was just arriving to. "Jin" he said shocked. "I want to met her jimin" I said to him. I went to go past him but he grabbed my arm. "Jin.. this isn't what I imagined when I suggested my mother" he sighed.

"It's fine" I said but he shock his head in disagreement. "If she doesn't love you then you lose your voice. Forever. It's to much a risk!" He sighed and our eyes met. He was really worried.

"I should follow my brain and logic but I... I can't. I never believed in love at first sight but I think I do now" I walked past him.

"We have a deal" I said to his mother who was sitting in a chair. She grinned that devils grin and got up. She picked up the bottle and handed it to me. She also had written a contract. "I get my voice back if she falls in love and kisses me?" I asked and she just nodded. The contract said exactly that. But there was tiny writing that I couldn't make out as well. "What's this?" I asked and all she said was. "Now or never" .

I signed it...

"Jin no" I heard someone scream. It was yoongi. He was swimming in with jimin, Taehyung and hobi. "He can't" she laughed. "Sing boy" she screamed and I felt like hands were around my neck strangling me. "Sing" she screamed. I mustered out as much as I could.

Purple sparkles were coming from my mouth and into her shell. Until... nothing... I can't sing... I can't speak. I held my throat and looked at her. Then next thing I knew my fin were changing. I looked down to see my light purple fin being replaced with legs!

I was now struggling to swim!

My friends rushed to me and put their arms around me. "Oh one last thing prince, you have a 14 days" she laughed. 14 days? What the fuck!
