Love with a Mermaid (closed for icu1978)

[dragonrazor]

Isaac Areno sat quietly on the docks near a prime section of beach. He sighed, tossing small stones into the water, wondering what he was going to do with his life. He was a writer, and had written several novels and movie scripts, so he didn't need money. He had a beachhouse nearby, and enough stuff to fill it. Still, he felt like something was missing. He couldn't figure out what, of course, and that was what was bugging him. He stood up slowly, planning on going back up the dock to pick up some more rocks, when he slipped, and fell into the water, hitting his head on a post. Dazed, he started to sink down into the water. He almost thought he saw a fin move past him. As he hit bottom, several fathoms, he felt certain he was going to die.

OOC: let me know if i should add anything, icu

Areal had been swimming by when she seen the human fall into the water. surprised she moved closer to get a better look. she had witnessed these creatures from far off. never daring to get to close,afraid of being seen or worse, being captured by one of them.

when she noticed the blood floating in the water coming from his head. she felt she had to do something. she enjoyed others pain even if this time it could cost her ,her life. lifting the man into her arms she swam as hard as she could their heads breaking the water she heard him gasp.

moving towards land she let the waves of the ocean push him up onto the sand. afraid to get to close to land herself she waited in the water watching him for signs of life. when he sat up she smiled . her long black hair floating on the surface of the water around her. the waves pushing her closer and closer tot he shore as she watched him. by the time she noticed she was to close to get away before being seen.

Isaac had been certain he was going to die. He could feel his life slipping away, when suddenly he felt soft arms lifting him up and taking him to the surface. He gasped, drawing in breath, then laid on the beach where the arms had left him. He drew shallow breaths for a bit, then slowly sat up. He looked around, wincing slightly, and put one hand on his head. He looked up and into the eyes of a woman in the water. "Hello. Who are you? Did you...save me?"

OOC: sorry, i didn't know you'd responded

 

[icu1978]

smiling she looked at him. cocking her head to one side. " you hurt your head." her voice soft and almost musical as she spoek to him. she knew she shouldn't be here talking to him. she should dive back into the water before he was completely aware of her and what she was.

her large blue eyes traveling over his body. a small smile curving her lips as she notice he was in fine form for a human male. if only he did not have those two stick things hanging off of his body like that.

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac raised an eyebrow, then remembered slipping off the dock. He raised his hand to his head, and winced. "Ouchies. Must have hit my head pretty hard. What about you? Why are you in the water?" His eyes took in her torso, noting how beautiful she was. Then he winced again, and realized he'd probably better seek medical attention. "You don't happen to know where the nearest doctor is, do you?"

 

[icu1978]

"doc-tor?" she looked confused as she looked around her. " no i do not know of a doc-tor.. i am sorry. i am not from around your land"
she could kick herself for sounding like such an idiot. she knew she had to go back into the water soon. he was becoming more and more aware of his surroundings. the longer she stayed here the more dangerouse it became for her.

 

[dragonrazor]

He nodded slowly, then winced again. "You don't have any medical knowledge do you?"

 

[icu1978]

looking confused she shakes her head. " no ... i ... i dont know what you mean.. your injury does not look to bad.. bleeds alot though" looking around the blue water she smiles and shrugs." bleeding is not such a good thing in the ocean... sharks you know."

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac nodded, then pulled his hand away, and saw it was indeed covered in drying blood. He sighed, then smiled. "I'd invite you to my house, but I need to go to the hospital." He got up, and started to leave.

 

[icu1978]

panic at the thought of not getting to see this human again she raised her hand coming a bit closer to land. " wait..... will you meet me here again.. tomarrow?" she looked at him beseaching him with her eyes. licking her lips she looked down at the water around her. for the first time in her life she wished she was human so that she could go with this man.

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac blinked, looking at the woman. The look on her face told him she wanted to see him again. He thought for a moment, then nodded. "Sure, if they let me out of the hospital."

 

[icu1978]

smiling brightly her entire face liting up at his words she waved to him as she drifted back away from the shore." that is great to hear.. i will meet you here to tomarrow ... when the sun is high in the sky ..ok?" as she listend for his agreement she prepared to slip back into the water. she knew that if she where cuaght out in the open like this there would be trouble and she had stayed to long as it was.

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac smiled, then winced again, and headed for the town. After several hours, and numerous stitches, he went home, and collapsed onto his bed, his mind going over her body as he had seen her. His mind's eye dwelled on her breasts and hips, and her face.

 

[icu1978]

diving back into the swilring darkness of the deep sea she explored the snady bottom of the ocean for a few hours before finding a small underwater cave. sliping inside she relaxed against the smooth rock wall and lay waiting for sleep to take her. when next she awoke it was morning and she sliped from her hidden cave to make her way back to their meeting spot. excitment building inside of her as her head broke the water and she looked apon the shore to find him already there waiting for her. smiling she waved and swam as close to shore as she dared.

her lower body hidden under the blue water she called out to him in her musical sing song voice. " hello i am glad you have came...is your head alright then?"

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac had started out early in the morning. He had been sitting on the beach with a sandwich and a bottle of juice, and had been about to start eating when she came to the surface. He smiled, and nodded. "They had to put some stitches in, to close the wound. No concussions, fortunately, so I'm not in danger of dying any time soon."

 

[icu1978]

giggling she rolled to her back and lay floating in the water. " that is good news then." turning her head she looked at him. her eyes changing slightly from deep blue to a slightly greener color. " she had not noticed that the waves where pushing her closer and closer to the shore until she felt the sandy bottom under her hands. pressing her lower body to teh sandy ground under the water she thrashed around trying to get further out to sea.

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac raised an eyebrow, then smiled, and put his stuff down, then stripped. He could use a swim after what had happened to him, so he walked out into the waves. Then he went farther out, till he was able to sit with his chest below water.

 

[icu1978]

smiling she swam over to him. close enough that should could reach out and touch him. but stayed far enough away that he could not see into the water where she hid the bottom half of her body. afraid of what he would do or say if he found out what she was.

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac smiled, then leaned closer to her, and gently kissed her cheek. "Thanks for saving me yesterday." He looked into her eyes, then realized he wouldn't mind stuffing her.

 

[icu1978]

she blushed and looks up at the sky. " it was nothing.. i couldn't just let you drown." looking over and smiles. thinking to herself what a nice loking man he was. as she looked at him her eyes became even greener. licking her lips she lowerd her eyes a little. looking at his lips, " what is your name? i am Areal."

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac smiled, watching her, then bowed his head slightly, "I'm Isaac. It's a pleasure to meet such a beautiful woman." He looked into her eyes again, feeling almost lost in them.

 

[icu1978]

blushing she turned and looked out over the waves. " thank you issac. it is pleasant to meet you as well." smilng she looked back at him. not sure what to do next. she figured she had to tell him about herself sooner or later and the longer she waited the worse his reaction would be. taking a deep breath she turned hr body so she faced him " do you believe in mermaids issac?"

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac blinked, turning to look at her again. He considered for a moment, then shrugged. "I don't disbelieve."

 

[icu1978]

giggling she knodded her head." well thats good i geuss... tell me issac, what would you do if you found yourself a mermaid?

 

[dragonrazor]

Isaac considered, then shook his head. "I dunno. Good question. Depends on what kind of woman she was, I suppose."
