Freaks In Love

(Y/N) POV

Today Jack and I are planning on heading to the beach. I have been avoiding going anywhere near the water with him around. I don't want him to find out I am a mermaid. Truth be told I have no idea how he would re act, I just hope not badly. He told me he has a secret he wants to tell me.

We have been dating for about five years now. I am happy he enjoys his job. He always loved helping people smile.

Sean walks up behind me and hugs me, then places a chaste kiss on the back of my neck.

"Hey Sweetheart, ready to go?" He asks me. I nod and he back off, the sound of his flip flops clapping as he walks away. I continue to get into my swimsuit, and throw a pair of shorts and a tank top over it. Sean already packed a beach bag thank fully. I would forget to do that so easily. I run towards the front door, where my boyfriend, appears to be playing on his phone while waiting for me. Picking up my flip flops I look at my handsome lover, and give him a peck on the nose. He loves it when I do that.

"You ready to go?" I ask him, he nods and we head out the door and to the car.

Before getting to the beach, we were listening to music in the car. Sean had his phone plugged in while I was driving. So he had control of music. He was playing all kinds of hilarious music, and was jamming out to it. Singing at the top of his lungs. I was giggling the whole time, and tried to keep myself focused on the road.

When we got to the beach we unpacked the car, and I made sure we came at the time no one else would be here. Also, this spot is very secluded, so I didn't have to worry about anyone seeing us. I set down the towels and my chair, while Sean set down our cooler and his chair. It is early morning, and this spot is kind of hard to get to.

I used to come here by myself all the time, but when I met Sean he would always make me feel better. This place has a story, mostly related to my parents. We would walk along here every morning. We didn't live together for the longest, so we would send time together, but never really staying with each other.

"You know I have never seen you in your bathing suit, I can't wait." Sean says then sits in his beach chair. I look at him, then sit in mine.

"I've never seen you in yours either!" I say and stick out my tongue at him. When I stop he quickly pecks my lips. I undoubtedly love this man, I just hope he isn't freaked out about me.

"You want to go down to the water for a little bit?" I look out and see that the sun hasn't risen yet. So I nod, and take off my shirt and shorts. Then see Sean gawking and I say.

"Close your mouth sweet heart, you'll catch flies." He chuckles and we walk towards the water together, hand in hand. I am shaking slightly; he seems nervous as well. It's not until I get completely submerged that I sprout a tail. I walk further into the water; he holds back a little. I am up to my waist.

"I want to show you something Sean." I let go of his hand and allow myself to fall completely under the water. I can feel the salty water swirl around my legs, with little bits of sand mixed in. and the feeling of just my tail being there. It's an ombre of (F/C) and (2F/C). I love my tail, and I like being a mermaid, but I wish it was different. Sean stands there looking down at me with shocks written all over his face. Then he dives in himself. This time, I can see that he has a tail of his own, bright neon green going down into a much darker one.

Well neither of us had nothing to worry about after all. I smile at him and he hugs me then kisses me. It was deep and passionate, loving. This is who I want to marry, I love this man. He takes my hand and we go towards the shore. Changing back, we go and sit down in our chairs, thank fully we are dry.

Sean and I watched the sun rise, and then spent our day messing around on the beach. We made sure not to go too far into the water, as we wouldn't want others to find out that we are mer-people.

After watching the sun set over the water, we headed home. Sean has more surprises up his sleeve, I wonder what else he has planned. When we got home, I went upstairs and got dressed. Specifically, into a body hugging red dress, that has a slit, from the bottom to the mid-thigh, and it is just above touching the ground. Sean asked me to put it on for dinner. I don't like to get dressed up often, but this is nice to do. I put on a little make up, and style my hair. Grabbing my high heels, I slip them onto my feet, and head down stairs. Successfully making it down there like a boss. I look for Sean whom is standing with his shoes on and is fixing his cuffs. I will admit it; my boyfriend is so sexy in a suit. Smiling I make my presence known by coughing slightly. His eyes widen at my presence. He walks over to me with confidence in each step he takes. He takes my hand, and kisses it.

"You, my Dear look absolutely stunning in that dress. Shall we get going?" He asks and gestures towards the door. I nod and we hold hands and jog out the door to the car. Chuckling as he pulling me along the side walk out of our apartment. Once again, moving in these heels like a boss. We decide to take the car, he wanted to drive, so he opened the car door for me then closed it after I got in. Then proceeded to make his way to the driver's side, and kisses my cheek when he gets in.

When we get to the restaurant He opens my door and bows at me when I get out. We intertwine our hands together, and make our way to the opening to the dinner place.

"Name?" The waiter asks in a bland voice, obviously bored of this place. Sean gives him a look and then says his last name.

"Mcloughlin?" Sean states to the man. The man scoffs, and looks at the board with various names on it.

"Right this way Sir." He says, then grabs two menus and leads us to a table, practically in the middle of the entire restaurant. I didn't mind though, its date night, and I am going to enjoy my night with Sean.

Sitting, we began to look at the menus, trying to figure out what looks the best.

After eating a wonderful meal, we got dessert and I am currently waiting for a piece of cake. Sean ordered it for me and may I say it looked heavenly. When it came out, we each took a bite. Upon putting it in my mouth, I felt something in there I was not expecting. I took it out of my mouth to find a small plastic wrapped piece of paper. It looked like one of those fortune cookie papers. I took it out of the packaging, and opened the paper, curious as to why it was there. I read it out loud, and I smiled so widely.

"(Y/N) (M/N) (L/N), Will You Marry Me?" I looked at Sean with joyful tears in my eyes. He in fact was kneeling down, with a small velvet red ring box opened in his hands. He had a smile on his face, and had some tears of his own as he looked at me with so much love.

"Will you Marry me?" He asks in person this time. I nod and say yes several times. He stands, pulls me into a kiss and pumps his fist in the air, and mumbles something onto my lips.

"Like a Boss!" I pull away, and now can hear all the joyful laughter, and applause in the background, as well as hidden friends of ours filming the entire ordeal.

"Sean Mcloughlin, I love you so much." I state, and he kisses my forehead.
