In Love With A Fishman

I wanted to tell Ironic Soul thank you for your nice comment and there is no way I'm gonna end this story short. Once I start to write a story I will never stop until I finish.

Chapter 2: Poison Ivy

"It's nice to meet you." Hody said as he examined Ivy from head to toe.

Ivy had orange-red wavy hair that had the top part in a black and red checkered bow, her hair stopped to her waist and she has peach skin with grey and green eyes. She wore a red shirt with short sleeves and a black leather corset around her waist. She had on a pair of black Capri pants with two chains connected to them on the left side with a pair of red flats.

"I can't believe that I'm actually talking to you like this, then again not every child takes after their parents." Ivy said.

"The only thing I have of him is a bit of a brutal side when someone pisses me off for a long period of time. The one thing in this world that I have no mercy for are those damned Celestial Dragons!" Hody said as looked from the building to see the ragging mad Saint Charloss barking orders.

"Yuck! I hate it for the women who weren't smart enough to run from him." Ivy said then hugged him from behind.

"What in the hell are you doing?" Hody asked with a smirk.

"Giving my thanks to the person who kept me from drowning, I'm a sucker for hugs." Ivy said as she was about to walk back home but stopped when Hody showed her that the area was surrounded by guards.

"You possibly wouldn't mind escorting a lonely and helpless human girl home would you?" Ivy asked with a big smile.

"What do I look like, a taxi?" Hody asked with his arms folded over his well-toned chest.

"No you don't but even taxis have their bargains." Ivy said with a smile. Hody chuckled at her.

"What could you possibly give me that would make me change my mind?" Hody asked now smirking devilishly.

"Well from what I always heard, the key to a man's heart is always his stomach. Plus if you refuse ill scream until my throat starts to bleed." Ivy said while mimicking the very tall fishman.

"That's a human metaphor, that doesn't mean anything to fishmen and if you scream you'll never get home." Hody said.

"Well unless you feed off of air for survival then that's true but you eat food just like I do so I'm right. Not to mention you're huge so I'm pretty sure your appetite is too." Ivy said ignoring his last statement. Hody smiled at the human girl.

"Fine but if you get too clingy you get a one way ticket to the bottom of the ocean." Hody said as he jumped into the water and waited for her.

"You want me to jump in the water?!" Ivy asked looking scared. Hody nodded his head.

"We can't walk there or we'll get spotted and there is no way I'm jumping from building to building and we both wind up getting caught." Hody said with a huff of annoyance. Ivy hopped into the water after a few minutes and felt two very large hands grab her and place her on something.

When she opened her eyes she was on Hody's back. She held into him a bit tighter as he dived under the water and swap in the directions Ivy pointed him to. It didn't take him any time at all to get where they needed to be. Ivy got out of the water and pulled him along to a house near a very large hotel.

"I'll get that food ready." Ivy said as she ran upstairs then back down a few minutes later with a towel for Hody and herself then lit the fireplace so it could keep them both warm.

"So what would you like to eat?" Ivy asked as she sat down next to him.

"You mean, what do fishmen eat?" Hody said as he sat near the fire and dried his hair. He looked at Ivy out of one eye from under the towel to see her pouting at him. (He said it in a way that he was correcting her, I didn't know how to type it so tell me if it's wrong or not.)

"Takoyaki and grilled fish sounds nice." Hody said as he chuckled. Ivy then got up and walked to the kitchen.

After a hour there was a whole seafood feast on the dining room table. Hody was literally trying to keep himself from drooling at the beautiful sight and delicious smells. Just as his hand was about to reach for the food Ivy grabbed it gently. Hody looked down at her to see that she was laughing.

"Go wash your hands first." Ivy said as she pointed to the kitchen sink.

"You sound like my mother." Hody mumbled as he walked to the kitchen.

Hody washed his hands thoroughly then dug in. He almost ate everything except for one plate of Takoyaki. Ivy laughed as she cleared the empty plates and placed them in the sink to be cleaned. After a few minutes she saw a large shadow behind her and before she could look back Hody was near her ear.

"Now what kind of gentlemen would I be if I let you clean up everything by yourself?" Hody asked then moved her aside gently and began to clean the dishes.

"It is the least I could do for you since you did save my life and you towed me home like a rag-doll." Ivy said while watching him.

"That was an easy task for me because I can breathe under water and swim. But for someone as small as you to cook all of that and then clean all the dishes is too much. If you really want to show thanks that much then watch and be happy." Hody said.

"Fine." Ivy said as she walked back to the living room and watched him from the sofa.

Once Hody finished with the dishes he walked into the living room and there laid Ivy in a peaceful sleep on the sofa. Hody smiled then looked at the clock to see that it was 7:30 p.m. His eyes widened and he wondered if he should tell her that he had to leave. Hody wrote her a small note and ran out of the front door, jumped into the water, and swam home as fast as he possibly could. When he opened and closed the door quietly to his mother's house he began to creep to his room but was stopped short by a cough. Hody slowly turned to see his mother eyeing him suspiciously.

"Just going to get a late night snack." Hody said as he began to walk.

"You smell like a human, a female human. I can also smell food on you and for some reason your hat is missing." His mother said.

"I get the feeling that she's done my dad like this too." Hody thought.

"I thought I told you no to go to the lawless zone. You did exactly what I told you not to do, who is this girl you've met?" His mother asked.

"Her name is Ivy and I may have saved her life from a Celestial Dragon and in thanks she fed me." Hody said hesitantly.

"Where's your hat?" His mother asked.

"I might have left it her house or lost it on the way back here." Hody said.

"I want to meet her tomorrow." His mother said as she began to walk to her room. Hody looked at like she was crazy.

"You want me to bring her here?! I only met her earlier today it's not like we're friends or anything!" Hody said.

"I don't care; I still want to meet her. So when you leave to get your hat tomorrow morning I'm coming with you." His mother said as she reached the top of the stairs.

"Oh yea she definitely did him like this." Hody thought with a frown on his face.

Haha! Poor Hody! See you guys next chapter and please review. I'm so sorry for taking so long to update this chapter, I've been doing a lot lately.
