Never Tell Me You Love Me
Tumblr media
Merman!Yeosang x Reader ft, wizard Jongho
Warning: Angsty, cursing a few times
You returned yet again to the rendezvous point where you and the handsome merman that you had became acquainted with weeks earlier would meet up at.
The scene before you was picturesque and looked to be straight out of a travel brochure as a vacation hotspot.
Tropical fruit was fragrant in the air and partly was the result of the suntan lotion that you used to protect your skin from the sun's burning rays even as it began to sink towards the rippling ocean.
The salty air wafting from the ocean kept your head clear and reminded you that Yeosang was very much real even though you questioned it constantly.
Your hands lazily sifted through the grains of sand on the beach as the waves gently lapped at your feet. Recollections filtered through your mind of the first time that you met Yeosang.
It happened to be that you were scuba diving one day and was quite taken aback to find a partial humanoid figure tangled in a fisherman's net. He was the most beautiful being that you had ever seen even if it was dark beneath the abandoned boat.
You were in denial the entire time that you worked with the roughly wound ropes to free him, the creature having given up until he saw you and had frantically lashed his tail out at you out of instinct of self preservation.
Still you didn't let it deter you when you finally found the nails along the boat that prevented the net from freeing the handsome merman. He immediately swam out of the net, his tail undulating gracefully as he swam and further amazed you.
You swam after him curiously, though instantly taken aback when he turned and faced you. His hair flowed around his head in a hypnotizing manner that was no less than ethereal.
Suddenly it came to you that your tank would be running out of air soon, so you had to swim back to the surface and leave the merman behind who looked on after you with haunting dark eyes.
You were still lost in thought about how you met with him again and how over time he warmed up to you and was a true sunshine to be with, how he was named Yeosang, how he was so handsome and unrealistically muscular, his soft deep voice-
Your thoughts were chased away like a school of fleeing fish when Yeosang's head broke the surface of the water.
He was so godlike that it took your breath away, like a greek sculpture was staring directly at you in real life.
"Hi Sangie..." You breathe while playing with the wet sand beneath you.
"Hello flower~ I'm surprised that you still are interested in coming to see me~ A light day with scuba clients again~?" Yeosang smiled pleasantly as he stayed afloat, the gentle waves lapping at his defined torso and would have mesmerized you had you allowed yourself to stare as freely as you would have liked.
"Yeah, it's after the holiday season so work is kind of light. Scuba instructors aren't in high demand nowadays but it'll pick back up soon!" You smiled at the merman softly and lit up his eyes pleasantly.
"I can be your client!" Yeosang chuckled softly and you giggle at his response.
"You already know how to swim!" You point out.
Yeosang huffed quietly and continued to stay afloat.
A long moment of silence passed as he watched you while your eyes were focused on the sunset. A pang of longing struck his heart as he watched you.
He couldn't sit beside you nor could he go with you wherever he went and it saddened him deeply.His heart became heavy as he watched you, wishing that he didn't have to return to the lonely depths of the ocean again.
'If only I had legs' Yeosang sighed in despair.
"Are you okay, Sangie? You look worried..." You trail off with a concerned tone that made him blush. You somehow knew when he was feeling down.
"Oh it's nothing. Just a lovely day with you~" Yeosang replied with a shy smile that caused butterflies to well up in your chest.
Suddenly a thought startled him and his entire face lit up.
"What are you thinking about, Sangie?" You were ever so intrigued by the wide array of moods that were displayed by the beauty before you.
"Oh it's just something that I need to do as quickly as possible! I'll see you soon Y/N!" Yeosang submerged himself in the water with a splash and swam away quickly.
You looked on from where you were on the shoreline in befuddlement. It hurt a little that he had to go, and you wondered if Yeosang had a date with another mer person.
Yeosang swam on through the deepest and darkest part of the ocean, angler fish occasionally lighting the way ahead of him and leading a trail to the dark wizard of the ocean.
Yeosang had in passing heard about the mysterious wizard that was referred to as Jongho. Having remembered that he could grant wishes that came with a price.
The merman was sure that he could find the currency to pay the wizard somehow. Yeosang gasped in terror when something many times his size rushed at him, soulless black eyes that belonged to the dreaded squid had him hyperventilating as he swam on frantically.
Something entangled him as he attempted to escape and he screamed out in pain as sea anemones stung at his skin.
"Who dares to interfere with my flowers, get out, get out!" A long figure swam up to Yeosang, taking a look at the crying merman and prying him loose from his sea anemones.
Yeosang looked through tears at the strong featured male, the black robe flowing down his form made him come to the conclusion that this must be the dark wizard.
"Are you... Jongho?" Yeosang asked hoarsely as the other figures carried him into an impossibly darker cave. It felt as if his skin was on fire still from the stings of the sea anemone.
"I am." Jongho replied shortly, his voice softer than it was earlier.
"Where are you taking me?" Yeosang asked as fear jolted his heart fast forward.
"I'm taking you to get healed. Stop flailing." Jongho commanded and Yeosang briefly succumbed, but his mind still raced.
Yeosang didn't feel afraid once he filled his gills and inhaled deeply, scarcely aware of when the wizard laid him down on a flat rock. He looked about his surroundings and noted the cave walls were like black marble.
Angler fish eeriely illuminating the interior dimly and the merman could barely make out Jongho rummaging about in a chest and bringing out some potions for Yeosang.
He groaned lowly at the bitter taste of the elixir that slid down his throat while Jongho cradled his head in his lap. Nearly unwittingly spitting it into the dark wizards face.
"You should be more careful." Jongho clicked his tongue and Yeosang glared at him.
"You should try having something you didn't ask for squeezed down your throat." Yeosang huffed and shuffled away from the wizard.
"I'm not the one who got hurt." Jongho retorted pointedly."Still, the point stands..." Yeosang trailed off and sat with his back to the wizard.
Sulking because of the circumstances that embarrassed him when he initially came to ask to be able to walk on land.
"Why are you here, princess?" Jongho smirks at Yeosang's back, swimming up alongside the nervous male.
"I came... to ask for something..." Yeosang starts hesitantly and turns to look at Jongho with dark, earnest.
"Oh? What might that be? I can't possibly imagine what such a beautiful specimen as you could possibly want~" Jongho sang out as he swam in front of Yeosang and appraised him, making him shiver anxiously.
"I- I- well... I want to have legs like those creatures called humans have... I want to be with Y/N as much as I can..." Yeosang blushed at his own confession and Jongho only chuckled.
"So it's the usual case of a fairy tale dream~ I can make your dream happen, but there will be a price to pay..." The wizard rested his chin in the palm of his hand, a scheming look in his eyes that unnerved Yeosang but he held to his resolve.
"What's the price...?" He dared asked with a weak voice. Knowing already that there would be a price to pay but it still frightened him.
"Hmm in this case you can have your legs, but there will be a clause attached..." Jongho swam to a cabinet with shell drawers, pulling out a reed scroll and returning to Yeosang's side. He opened it and Yeosang shielded his eyes from the luminous light.
"I can't see that damned thing!" The merman huffed.
"Its not to be seen, it is a record of the clause. The clause here states that you may have your legs under the condition that your love interest does not fall in love with you. Should you fail to meet this condition hereby you will return to the ocean and so will your love, fulfilling servitude for the remainder of your days." Jongho rattles off while Yeosang continues to shield his eyes from the brightness. Struggling to keep up with the wizard's terminology.
"Do I have your voice signature to seal this deal?" Jongho asked softly as Yeosang looked on in befuddlement.
"That defeats the whole purpose of why I want to be with Y/N..." Yeosang snapped, shrinking back when Jongho's darkening face draws near his own.
"Is it yes or no, princess? I don't have all day." Jongho began to roll the magical scroll up.
"Ah- yes yes I mean- yes I want to be with them..." Yeosang blurted out hastily.
"Good answer. I'd be hating for you to have to look back at this day wondering what would it have been like if you had said yes." Jongho gleefully rolled up the scroll and tossed it back in his drawer.
Yeosang woefully held his head in his hands, wondering just what had he done as the wizard began to swim circles around him.
"What are you doing?" He asked softly and Jongho chuckled in response, his hands making a rolling action and forming a large purple ball sparking and crackling with energy between his hands.
"I'm about to give you your legs, princess~" He laughed in a tone that bordered maniacal, raising Yeosang's hackles immediately and furthermore causing him to question his decision.
Without warning Jongho threw the ball at Yeosang, knocking him out cold.
~~~~~
Yeosang awoke with a start, finding himself lying on a bed. He saw sunlight filtering through a window and the sounds of birds singing soothed his pounding head.
"You're awake." Your voice startled him and he felt the sudden urge to look down at the foot of the bed. He gasped to see that instead of his tail he had two feet and two legs.
By now you had came over to his side of the bed, your expression unreadable."How did I get here?" Yeosang asked in a low voice that was filled with worry.
"I found you washed up on the beach this morning... I don't know what happened or what to believe but I'm glad you're alright. I brought you to my place for now since I don't know where you'll be staying." You brush the hair away from his face and gazed down at him, finding the way he fit into your pjs adorable.
He looked up at you with worry, and you furrowed your brows at him in concern.
"You're looking at me as if I'm about to die... What's wrong Sangie?" You coo softly and bring anger surging within him. The anger not being directed at you but anger at this curse that he now was under.
"N-nothing, I just need to adjust." Yeosang stammered out softly.
"Ah yes, my bad." You smile at him and further increased his anger. He loved you so much, but you shouldn't reciprocate it. You stood up and stumbled, alarming Yeosang and he jumped out of bed to assist you.
"I'm okay, geesh I must be clumsy..."
You sigh softly and sit on the edge of the bed. You weren't sure why it felt as if there was now a wall between you and Yeosang now. And it pained your entire body in an unusual way.
"I should go and try to find a job... I can't explain what happened... I just need to stay away for awhile..." He stood up in a determined, wobbly whirlwind and left you alone with questions. Why was it always like this?
You asked yourself that question a lot. Feeling the instinct to go out for a swim calling to you as your skin seemed to crawl and prickle.
A soft exhale escaped you as you dressed for going to the beach, looking at your front door and wishing that Yeosang would come back. Instead you would find a safe haven in the ocean.
~~~~~
"Fuck you Jongho!" Yeosang hissed at the vast ocean before him. Two months had passed and life among humans wasn't something that he felt that he could adjust to. Without you everything was meaningless and he felt like he was without air and water both.
He blamed himself for wanting more. When he felt that he should have been happy with just meeting you at the beach.
He trudged along the shoreline with his head down. His footprints in the wet sand reminding him of the times spent with you. Only for the impressions to be washed away in time.
"Sangie?" A familiar voice called out to him and he froze in his tracks when he saw you out in the water, swimming towards him. Instinctively he turned to flee but you called out to him again.
"Please don't go... I only want to talk with you..." You plead softly and hold out your hands to him.
He nods hesitantly, though unsure as to what he's agreeing to as he approaches you and walks into the water.
"I need to tell you something, Y/N..." He starts out and pauses when he sees your tired eyes light up.
"I need to tell you something also, its been on my mind a lot since I last saw you and I need to get it off my chest." You fidget with your hands as Yeosang draws closer.
"What is it?" He asks curiously, his head tilted reminding you of a puppy."It's that I l-" You gasp when Yeosang clasped his hand over your mouth.
"Never say that you love me. I don't want to hear those words." He spat out even as his heart broke to say it. Being all that he had ever wanted to hear you say but he couldn't afford for your life to be altered in a way beyond your control.
Your eyes grew wide as tears stung. You couldn't deny that you loved him even if he didn't want to hear it.
Neither of you were prepared for the purple light that enveloped the both of you. Knocking you and Yeosang unconscious.
~~~~
Your surroundings were unfamiliar when you came to. Lying at the bottom of the ocean and wondering why you hadn't drowned, until you looked down at where your lower limbs were supposed to be. Only to find a shimmery tail in the place of your legs.
This was really strange to say the least and you were pretty certain that you were dreaming at this rate. Yards away you saw Yeosang sitting with his back to you and sobbing bitterly.
Instinctively you swam up to him and put your arms around him.
"I don't know if this is a dream but it's going to be okay..." You were beyond confused but you were focused more on your worry for Yeosang.
"I tried to protect you, because I love you too..." He allows you to pull him close to comfort him.
"Shh... It's okay..." You rock him slowly in an effort to comfort him.
"How can it be okay when now you're bound to the ocean?! I caused this because I asked the dark wizard for legs and now look at you... I have caused you to be here without you having a say because of my curse." Yeosang recoiled but you continued to try to comfort him.
"My life has revolved around the ocean for the majority of my existence, this will be perfect..." You reassure him. Knowing that this came as something unexpected but you would get acclimated to it. You were sure of it.
Yeosang looked at you with doubt in his eyes, so you impulsively leaned in and kissed deeply. Your hands roaming across Yeosang's chest and shoulders softly and releasing the tension in his shoulders.
You broke away from him and he relaxed in your arms, his hair an angelic halo floating around his head that accentuated his naturally ethereal look.
"Let's see if my home is still down here, I don't think Jongho can find us there." He takes your hand and starts to swim away with you.
Thankfulness filled you as you thought about being able to finally be with Yeosang from here on out. Even if you weren't expecting the dark and mysterious figure looming before you and Yeosang.
"I'm here to collect what's mine."

02.05.2017 // Day: 1 
🐹: Jimin and I made a volleyball bet that the loser shall stay on the water for 5 minutes with the unicorn tube in the ocean. I knew I could win the game but let him win in several moments, and dear, he beat me. He sent me far to the ocean while I was floating on the water. How mean.
🐰: When we just got here, it was so hot that the only thing I want was to go inside the room. Fighting against the heat at night, in this space without wifi or hotspot service, I doubt if we could have a fun time here or not. Next morning, we began the shooting after preparation half in sleep. It was still so hot, but as time went on, I got used to it and adapted to the weather. During the shooting, we played a game called "Finding Capsule in Sand". There were 13 capsules 2 of which were only the winning capsule. The winner was to receive a gift that can be only provided here. From the beginning to the end, I found nothing but sweat a lot. But I wasn't really jealous because I don't know what the prize was. We went back to the hotel for a scene to drink a cocktail after the scene on the beach. I really enjoyed the shooting. I'm looking forward to tomorrow except the weather...
03.05.2017 // Day: 2
🐹: I tried scuba-diving, snorkeling, wakeboard, water-skiing and a banana boat today. The director said that I was the only member who tried everything. I knew it. This is why I'm so tired. I saw JK riding the wakeboard and he was a monster. I should be nice to him from now on.
🐰: I woke up, had breakfast, and went back to sleep again. I was late. The members scolded me. I shall never fall asleep next time. I went to scuba dive on a boat known to be one of the fastest boat in the Philippines. Listening to the instruction, we fix the order. We waited because we were the second team. I then snorkelled because it was too boring and hot to wait long. I went really far and it was really fun. Then I missed the time to scuba dive so I couldn't do it. I found the master who gave me the instruction over there. I wanted to go talk to him because I was sorry, but it was so late that I had to leave. Sorry, sir... I had snacks like pizza and fries then went to ride a wakeboard and jet ski. I was so excited. I was on the back seat of the jet ski V drove and rode a wakeboard. I couldn't stand up at first. I held out but gave up because it was too tiring. But I made it in two. It was another level. It was so amusing... My arms hurt but I was happy to have a new experience. I came back after the shooting with the makeup and hair styling. Today was even more interesting than yesterday
04.05.2017 // Day: 3
🐹: I did the shopping today but there were not many things to buy because they all were so expensive. I bought a totem to protect the room for SUGA and me from a ghost. Go for it, totem!
🐰: In the morning, I was half asleep while preparation and then I began the pictorial work. We moved to another place after the hotel and the place was so beautiful like a painting. The sky was blue as blue can be as if somebody had spread water color there. I recorded many videos and wish them to turn out nicely. Then I went to a souvenir shop. I received 200 peso but I loved everything there so I went over the budget. It was sad, but I bought a dream catcher because I often have a dream these days. I wish I could have only good dreams! Then I had a nice meal. Ah... I saw the sunset and the scenery was beautiful. I recorded another video. I'm sure it will turn out nicely. We opened the presents, finished the shooting and now I'm writing the last diary...! It was hot but happy days. I will swim later too! Bye ♡
