Izuku's POV:

I don't remember how I actually got here nor where here was. All I knew was that I wasn't in the water anymore. No pain, no water, no nothing. For now I had Kacchan close by and the moment I really realized that it was him and that I was laying down, I suddenly sat up and looked at Kacchan more than just surprised.

Me: Where?

Katsuki: Don't stress yourself Izuku. If you do need to know, You're on a JCG ship.

Wait!

I am on a ship?

Why am I out of water?

I want to go back there....

The noises here...

The air... it feels suffocating.

Me: I want to go back....

Katsuki: I know Deku, but you're injured... The nurse said you can go back to frolicking in the water when your wounds are healed.

While he may have said that I was actually playing with the thought of just dipping but I couldn't do that now, could I? For now I knew that the would I got was too bad to actually be able to swim with my fin like that. I also wouldn't be able to heal myself at all. So instead I wanted something else.

Me: Kacchan... water.... please....

Katsuki(looking around): I think there's a tub in the bathroom... maybe you can sit in it.

Me: I would be happy even just a bit...I don't care if I am not completely covered in water....just please... this doesn't feel right.

Katsuki: Ok, I'll carry you since your legs are badly injured. Hold on tight.

Me: Thank you, Kacchan you are the best!

He did as he said and actually picked me up princess bridal style and carried me over to the bathtub where he carefully placed me down and the moment just a drop of water came into contact with my skin, my legs transformed into fins and I let the injury out of the tub but enjoyed being inside as well. Kacchan didn't let in a lot but enough to feel comfortable. After that he sat right on the edge and I looked up at him. For some reason he looked as if he wanted to say something but held back,

Me: What's wrong Kacchan?

Katsuki: I just-... It's stupid, don't worry about it.

Me: Why shouldn't I?

Katsuki: You'll laugh... and it's childish.

Me: I promise I won't. I mean I am a water addicted mermaid so what can be even funnier than that?

Katsuki: I was just wondering. Why didn't you show up that day? I waited all day, but you didn't show.

Me: That day... actually that was the day my quirk completely manifested and not just a bit. It became unbearable to not be in the water. I couldn't stand it. Kacchan, you know how people say they feel when they drown?

Katsuki: I've never met a person who's drowned... what?

Me: Well they say it is suffocating and painful yet peaceful because how quiet the ocean can be. But for me being outside on the land feels like that with the exception that it's always loud and irritating. I just... I couldn't stand it. I felt like losing myself. I didn't know what else to do. The ocean gave me peace and soo... you know... I decided to stay there.. ,might not be the best thing but I don't know what else to do. I still feel drawn to it the moment we speak.

Katsuki(thoughtfully): I won't pretend to understand what you mean nerd... but I'm glad to know you're alright.

For once Kacchan really looked too deep in thoughts and I knew very well how it felt like for myself so I didn't wanted him to think about it more and splashed some water towards him while laughing as well.

Me: Stop furrowing your brows Kachcan!

Katsuki: ACK- Nerd! You sound like my hag!

Me: She is right you know!

With that I splashed a bit more water but the thing I didn't think would happen, happened. Kacchan leaned in to splash me with water as well but he slipped completely with the hand which was supporting him and fell into the tub.

Katsuki: Fuck!

Now that he was actually half on me, I couldn't help it but blush. Tho there was something I really wanted to do and when I knew one thing to do my whole life than it was to trust and give into my desires so I stole a quick kiss from him before looking away while knowing that my face was now heating up completely.

I did it...

I really stole a kiss from him...

Gosh...

How could I do something like this...

Tho I want more!

Should I?

No! What am I thinking about?

I live in the water basically and here he is... this is not a good combination. I will get back into the water and he will be on land.

Get your shit together... tho he is hot.

Damn it...

I am soo simping right now....

Katsuki: Hah!? You can't just do that and then look away! It's so unfair, let me see your face.
