OKAI THIS ONE IS CUTE AND ROMANTIC UNLIKE THE LAST ONE! YAAAY! (AND SO RANDOM)

Kanda hated his job, so when the weekend finally arrived he rejoiced. It was Sunday evening and he had spent this weekend meditating and relaxing. Unfortunately, his weekend was drawing to a close and he would have to return to work. He worked a pretty shitty job as a fisherman, throwing nets out in the ocean and catching fish. Reeling the net back in and repeating it for hours until his back was sore, and his feet aching. Kanda was really good at his job though, and made a pretty good profit out of fishing, so the labor was worth every cent. Even if the hours were too long, and the breaks too short.

He sat on his couch with tea and a good book, this is what he called relaxing. His living room was dimly lit which was beginning to become a bad idea, his eyelids were drooping and he was struggling to stay awake long enough to get to bed. He closed his book with a sigh and gulped down the rest of the tea at his side and turned the lights off on his way to his dark bedroom. Kanda laid in his king sized bed all alone, he stretched his hand over to the other side of the bed where a single pillow lay. He had no one in his life who he could lay beside and love. Kanda was truly alone in the world, but he had brought that upon himself, he never let anyone close, he pushed them away with insults.

He grabbed the pillow and pulled it closer to his chest, his chest was aching with loneliness and longing. Kanda curled up under the covers and fell asleep like that, lonely. The next morning light was showing through his window, blinding him. He dragged himself out of bed and dressed rather slowly before he put on his boots and laced them up before he left his house. Kanda made sure to lock his door before he got in his car. He hurried to work for no specific reason, but about halfway there he got stuck in traffic. It was normal for there to be traffic at this time of day when it was this hot.

He absolutely hated getting stuck in traffic, because it was almost always beach traffic, meaning people were heading to the beach, as was he. Kanda would probably be late, but he didn't mind all that much, the job wasn't exactly fun or even slightly interesting. He worked with fish all day, it wasn't like he was going to be catching Nessy The Lockness Monster or anything. Kanda tapped the steering wheel as he leaned back in his seat and waited for the red light to turn green. He hoped today would go peacefully, but knowing how almost everything in his life never went according to plan it was bound to be hectic. Finally, the light changed and he continued on his drive to work, he would be one of the last people to leave today because he took one of the overtime shifts today which as usual, was a big mistake. He finally made it to the beach and circled the parking lot a couple of times, searching for a parking spot closer to the sandy docks. Finally, he found one not too far away and vacated his car.

He walked from his car to the docks and boarded one of the fishing boats about to sail. Other men were putting on their yellow waterproof jackets and pants preparing for the day ahead of them. Fishing was a messy business, so the more protection, the easier you day was. Luckily Kanda hadn't forgotten his gear in his car, so he put that over his clothing and walked over to the nets, preparing them for their little voyage. The captain of the ship and few others undocked the ship and started the boat off in the direction of the expanse of sea. Kanda glared and put his hair up in a bun on top of his head and put a hat on, the boat slowly got farther and farther from the shore and the Kanda cast his net out into the ocean. He cast the next, and the next, and the next, until all of the nets were out and busy catching fish. Salty sea water already drenched him and chilled his bones. Every few half hour he and the other fishermen would haul the nets back in, and dump the fish, and throw the nets back in the water.

Kanda sat down and checked his watch with another crew member, he recalled that his name was Lavi. "Hey Yuu-chan!" he said excitedly, how could that redhead possibly be excited? It was wet, gloomy, and all they were doing was catching fish. "Don't call me that!" Kanda snapped rudely, checking his watch again. It was time to dump out the net and cast it out again. Kanda and Lavi pulled the net up the side of the boat and threw the net on the deck. Fish flopped around frantically and flew in the air, Kanda threw the net back out and picked up the fish and put below the deck. Rinse and repeat for five more hours. Kanda caught the same fish all day, over and over and there was nothing out of the ordinary, except for how annoying this redhead named Lavi was being. Kanda ignored him for the next few hours and continued to do his job as the man tried to make conversation. He wasn't the type to play friends with his co-workers, he was here to get paid and leave, not to socialize his paycheck away. He retrieved another net and threw the fish below the deck.

It was getting dark now, and they were on their way back to the shore, Kanda stretched his back and arms. Soon the boat was docked again on the shore and he was handed the keys by the Captain. "Can you close her up for me? Oh, and I think there's still a net that needs to be pulled back up." his boss said, with a weary smile as he too got off the boat while Kanda stayed behind. Kanda nodded to the Captain and took off his gear, and freed his hair from its bun. He ran his fingers through he hair and redid his ponytail. He left his gear on the deck and locked everything up before pulling the heavy net up all by himself. Usually, it wasn't so difficult to pull it up, his muscles burned by the time the net fell onto the deck. He stepped back, surprised, there was a strange creature laying on the fish. He looked half human, half human. His head and torso looked human, while his legs weren't legs. The strange man had a fish tail. "What the hell!?" Kanda said, eyes wide.

"I should be asking you the same thing!" the creature responded, his fish tail slammed onto the deck. Kanda leaned closer and the creature hissed. "Not a step closer, human!"

"What are you!?" Kanda asked, taking a cautious step backward, and nearly slipping on a dead fish. "A mermaid or something!?"

"Precisely! You're the first human to realize that, what is the place?" The mermaid, or merman, asked cautiously. Kanda gave him a good look, the creature wasn't wet anymore it seemed.

"You're on a boat, idiot!" Kanda snapped, "What's happening to your tail?" His tail was twitching, and he looked down horrified. The mermaid freaked the fuck out.

"Oh my god! Come over here you imbecile and kiss me!"

"What, no way! Why?"

"Just do it!" Allen said with an annoyed expression and gestured Kanda to come closer. Kanda obliged and Allen grabbed his shirt and pulled his down closer to his face and kissed him. Kanda shoved him away and wiped his lips. "What the fu-" Suddenly Kanda realized what happened, the mermaid's tail had magically changed from a fishtail to a pair of human legs. Allen looked at his new legs in awe, "I didn't actually think it would work!" he said, "Human man, you must be wondering what I just did."

"Yeah, what the hell-"

"I didn't say you could speak yet." Allen said, interrupting, "If a mermaid's tail dries out they die, which is what was happening a few seconds ago. It's a rumor that if you kiss a human that you get human legs and live. I was pretty sure it wasn't going to work." Kanda slapped his forehead and nearly screamed, what had he got himself into?! Now he had a former mermaid now fully naked and human. What was he going to do? Was he supposed to just leave him, or carry him home..? Allen tilted his head to the side adorably. "Why did you just hit yourself? Is that something humans do often?" he asked, and it almost made Kanda laugh out loud.

"We do it when we're confused or frustrated," Kanda explained, but Allen still seemed completely lost. "My names Kanda by the way."

"Allen Walker,"

"Can you walk?" Kanda asked, but that was probably the stupidest question he'd asked.

"No you retard, I've never had legs before!" Allen said with a sigh, Kanda sighed as well and picked up his bag and awkwardly dressed the younger male. He guessed he'd have to take him home with him. He had nowhere else to go. He lifted up the smaller man and he was lighter than Kanda expected. He carried him all the way to his car and buckled him in before walking over to his side of the car and driving home. The boy asked a lot of questions about everything, like a child. Kanda was glad there wasn't any traffic at this time of night, so he drove quickly, trying to explain a human society to a mermaid. Allen understood most of it, but he was completely lost on why people wore clothes. Why would people restrict themselves in itchy and tight fabric?

Kanda told him that humans wore clothes to cover their bodies, and Allen finally dropped the topic. Kanda finally parked his car in the driveway and stared at the weird boy. He seemed much paler now that he got a good look at him. "What is it, Kanda?" Allen asked, but Kanda got out of the car and carried him inside to his bedroom. Allen touched his new appendages and decided not to move them too much. Kanda was now thoroughly exhausted as he climbed in bed with the strange boy, who didn't shut up for the next hour, but Kanda realized something. The boy was curled up beside him sleep with his arms wrapped around Kanda's stomach and snoring, but Kanda didn't feel any loneliness tonight.
