Aquata Cove
Chapter 16: Just Another Day


"Hehehe~! Hahahaha!" Merrick giggled as he squirmed underneath Adam on the
bed. The human is nuzzling and tickling Merrick's neck as he rubbed his
body against Merrick's smooth flesh. It's been almost a week since Merrick
arrived, and he hasn't gone anywhere else since the day at the pier.

Adam chuckled as he licked and nibbled on Merrick's ear, to which the
merman laughed and writhed as he felt his hands along Adam's sides. Adam's
hand reached in, and started tickling those tender, smooth balls. "Oooh~"
Merrick smiled as he wiggled his hips, "You gonna play with me, Adam~?" The
man chuckled as he fondled Merrick's floppy penis under the sheets.

"As much as I-" His alarm then sounded. Adam sighed and grumbled as he
picked up his cell phone, and checked the time, "I'm sorry, Merrick. I
gotta go to work."

"Whaaaat?" Merrick frowned as Adam climbed out of bed, stark naked again,
"But, you've been to work for four days now!"

"I know, babe, and I'm sorry." He said as he put on his pants, "But I can't
put off my job, or else I'll get in trouble."

"But it takes so long for you to come back!" Merrick complained, "Please,
can we at least have sex first?"

"Trust me, I REALLY want to, Merrick, but I pushed it as long as I can," He
then sat down on the bed, and tilted that chin up, "I'm sorry, Merrick,
it's out of my hands. You know I love you, right?" Merrick sighed and
nodded.

"What am I supposed to do until you get home then? I'm always so bored just
staying around here."

"Well, Jamal will be home in a few hours, you can play with him. He can
show you how to work the PS3. Video games are a GEAT way to pass the time."

"Ok, I guess..." Merrick pouted.

"It's a half day today for me, babe, so I'll be home sooner this time, I
promise." Adam said before he turned his head towards him, and pressed his
lips against the other. Merrick closed his eyes and moaned pleasantly as
Adam administered a very passionate kiss. He meshed his mouth firmly
against the other, allowing their tongues to dance and squeeze against each
other. The merman murred as he lapped longingly with his human, feeling his
member start to stiffen from the mouth-to-mouth.

Adam broke the kiss, and rubbed his forehead against the other, "I'll be
home soon, sweetie." He whispered before getting up, and kissing Merrick
one more time, "I love you."

"I love you too, Adam."

With that, Adam went out of his house, and rode off in his motorbike.


~~~


Adam sighed as he locked up his vehicle, and went to punch in, when someone
called out to him.

"Adahm." He turned to see Belinda there, looking at him. He leaned on the
wall, and crossed his arms.

"So?"

"Adahm... I jus wan you to know... I do not drink blood anymore."

"How do I know that, Belinda? Look, I try to see past someone's past, but
what Merrick says you've done... How can ANYONE just do that? From what you
said, this Noita was like a mother to you, and you just killed her and
sucked her blood like it was nothing."

"What I have done is done, Adahm. I give you no reason to hate me. It is MY
doing, and my alone." She responded.

"Yeah, but I don't know if I can trust you. People say one thing, and when
the wrong or right situation presents itself, they end up doing something
they said they wouldn't. That's the risk you take when you cross that line.

"Honestly, Belinda, I still want to be your friend, but now that I know
this about you, I feel scared to be around you."

"Adahm... Whats can I do to show you I am true?" Belinda asked. Adam just
sighed and shook his head.

"I don't know. When the situation presents itself." He said before he
walked away.

"He should no be here either!" Belinda said, "A male luving a male, a
merman and a human! Dat is forbiddan as wells!" Adam turned back around,
giving her a glare. He walked back to her, as calm as he can be.

"That's different, and you know it. At least he never killed anyone who
meant something to him. Until you give me a good reason, we're done." With
that, he walked off, mildly insulted that this friend of his would compare
herself with Merrick.


---


Adam's mood has gotten better since that morning. He doesn't know just
where Belinda stands. On the whole, she's still his friend; he only said
what he did because he got annoyed with her. Besides that, learning what
she is kind of scares him. That one time where she healed the cut on his
thumb, that's possibly a power she picked up from her Noita. And who knows
how many more powers she has from drinking blood. Then again, she did have
a point when she said she hasn't given him a single reason why he shouldn't
trust her, other then when she tried to kill him with they first met, and
the other times when she stole from the Fish House. Regardless, until
further notice, he's decided to keep his guard up.

"Aaand, here's your order... Hey!" Adam said with a grin. Nicholas looked
up, and smiled back. He's wearing a bright blue and yellow uniform of the
café he's currently working in.

"Oh hey! Umm... Adam, right?"

"Yeah, how're you doing Nick?"

"Ok, I guess. Kinda dealing with some blue balls though." Adam laughed as
he started loading up the Fish House merchandise into the backroom, with
the Latino helping right beside him, "I got a Prince Albert, and I still
need to heal."

"You're just wide open with that kind of stuff, aren't you? I swear, you
and Jamal would make a good couple."

"Neh. He's an awesome fuck, but I still not into dating," He said as a grin
dawned on his face, "So I saw you with a ab-fab cute blonde in a fishnet
top a few days ago. He your pretty boy?"

"Yep!" Adam said as he hefted a bag of ice from his cart, "And I know this
is probably a dick move on my part, but the sex is awesome," He leaned his
elbow on large bag, "Picture, if you will, a fine, playful, naked blonde
twink. His eyes as blue as the sea, soft pink lips that would make you melt
at one kiss. His skin is completely smooth, perfectly flawless. He's
completely naked, except for a jockstrap, cupping his beautiful, supple
bubble butt. He bends over the couch, rubbing his perfect bottom as he
looks over his shoulder, and-" Adam felt a hand over his mouth, looking at
the wincing Latino.

"Please no more, it hurts to go hard," Nick said as he grunted, gently
cradling his own crotch. Adam chuckled as he continued to move the large
bags of ice and fish into the café's kitchen, "Happy for you though
-- ennghh." He said as he walked awkwardly. Nick smacked Adam's rump before
he sat back down in his cart, "THAT'S for getting me hard," Nicholas said
as he walked off.

Adam scowled as his iPod zapped out as he strolled in the warehouse. He
just needs to change, and head home to Merrick.

"Wut are you goin on about?? Just spit it out, would ya??" Came the
Captain's voice.

"Adam was KISSING another man!" Adam froze in his tracks, his insides
suddenly purging from the statement, "Right behind the Fish House!" That
voice... It's Damien. He's kind of a douche-bag around that gets on
everybody's nerves. He was promoted to manager a few years ago. Looks like
he's finally been found out that he's gay.

Adam sighed as he walked away. It was nice working here while it lasted.


~~~


"Yeah? So?" Captain said.

"We gotta get rid of him! We can't have a faggot working here!" Said Damien
as he slapped his hand down.

"Why the hell not? He's a good `nuff fishboy. Last I checked, the gays are
good with work. He gits more cans and hooks done in the Hut than any of the
other fishboys. He's real good with customers, and has a good attitude. Is
that was your written complaint was about? Bitching about one of the
fishboys just cause he's a fairy? Who the hell cares??"

"We can't have a fag representing the Fish House! Last time I checked,
fishermen aren't some flimsy she-males!"

"Oh, fuck off. He's more a man than YOU are, wastin my time about who
kisses what. I don't care if he was makin a puffer fuck his arse, as long
as he gits his job done, what's it to you who or what he's chasin?"

"Captain, I insist, we HAVE to get rid of him!"

The rusty, old, fat Captain looked up at him. He put his pen down, and
stood up, "Ya know, I used ta be just like you. Always goin on about what a
man should be, what's supposed to be right. Lemme tell ya story. Sit tight,
you'll love this one.

"Once upon a time, I had a son. He wuz always getting bullied in school
because he was always actin so girly and pretty. I did my best to
straighten him out, try to get him to act right, like a REAL man. But I'd
always find him puttin' on nail polish or find some girl clothes in his
closet. I told him the bullying would toughin him up, but that got nowhere,
he just kept on bitchin about it.

"He tried explaining the he was born a guy, but he was more like a lady;
said he was transsexual or sumthin, I dunno. Well, I just about had it with
him, and I told him, `Well, if ya don't man up, son, you're DEAD to me!'"

"So you kicked him out of your house?" Damien said, "Good, that was
probably the only way he could've-"

"No no, it gits better," Captain said bitterly, "I came home a week after
that, and I went into my son's room. He was beaten up, and he had slashed
his wrists," The Captain opened a drawer of his desk, and took out an old
yellow post-it note, and tossed it onto the desk, "He had put this on his
forehead, for me to look at when I got there. Go on, read it."

Damien picked up the old note, and read it to himself:

-Am I dead to you NOW?-

Damien looked back up at the Captain, "That's a shame... I'm sure with
counseling, he could've been better-"

"Shut yur fuckin trap," Captain spat out, glaring fiery daggers at Damien
"Now look here, I ain't gonna pretend I understand about the GLBT crap or
nuthin, and God help me, I don't really care. But if I stepped up as a
person, and as a bloody father, my son -- or daughter, whatever -- would
still be here. He fuckin killed himself because I didn't accept him as he
wuz. I thought he'd toughen up from the abuse at school, but like a fuckin
idiot, I let him die..." The Captain is being as calm as he can be, but
he's fighting to keep from shedding a tear, "I don't bloody care what
people are, because it doesn't make a fuckin difference. And I lost my only
kid cause I didn't realize that sooner."

"... I'm sorry, Captain, but I can't go along with this as long as there's
a homosexual working here." Damien persisted.

"Good," Captain said, "Then fuck off."

Damien blinked at him, shaking his head, "Wait, what?"

"Yeah, yur fired," Captain said as he put the note in his drawer.

"Yah!" Damien scoffed, "You can't fire ME! I've made you more money in this
dump than you have ever since you opened it!"

"Oh yeah that's right..." Captain said as he slowly nodded. After a pause,
he looked back at Damien, "I'm sorry, are you still here?"

"You CAN'T be serious!"

"Wut? You wanna pony ride or sumthin? I got work to do." Damien shook his
head and turned to leave, "Oh, Damien, one more thing," Captain said as he
picked up a pen and some papers. Damien turned around and looked at the
salty old man, "You ever touch Adam or his boyfriend, sleep with one eye
open, got it?"

SLAM!!


~~~

Adam sighed as he took the rest of his stuff out of his locker. He stepped
through the hall, and bumped into Damien. Before he could say anything, he
slapped the box out of Adam's hands, causing it to fly out of his arms, and
scatter onto the floor before stalking off. Adam scowled as he squat down,
and started to gather his things.

"And what the hell are YOU doin, fishboy?" Came the scratchy voice. Adam
looked up to see the Captain, standing there and looking down at him.

"Just gathering my stuff, I'll be out of your hair in a few minutes..." He
said.

"Why? You goin somewhere? Don't tell me ya quittin. Ya got one more
shipment to deliver before ya take off." Adam looked back up.

"Huh?"

"Wut? You just assumin I'm gonna fire ya fer eavesdropping?" He said with a
smirk, "You know what they say: `The first three letters of assume is
A-S-S. When ya ASSume, ya make an ASS out of yerself'."

Adam paused; he honestly thought he was going to get fired for being gay,
"I uh... Yeah, I heard you and Damien talking."

"Well, I won't be doin THAT ever again," Captain said as he snorted, "Now
git that stuff back in yer locker, and finish that last shipment. Yur one
of my favorite fishboys, and don't ya forget it. I'm not about ta lose a
decent canner just cause he chases worms over guppies." Adam blinked in awe
as the fat, old fisherman walked away, "Oh, and one more thing," He said as
he turned around one more time, "My best regards to ya boyfriend. Don't let
yur best catch git away, ya hear me?" With that, he left Adam to his
devices.


~~~

Adam couldn't help but smile as he punched out of work, or since that
moment in the locker-room for that matter. His boss literally made his day
this time. He'd want to do something nice for the Captain, but whenever
someone does that, the Captain kinda turns it down.

He unlocked his motorbike, and rode it over to the candyshop to buy some
gummies for Merrick, see if he likes them. After purchasing a bag of
colorful sharks, octopi, and worms, he rode his vehicle down the pier, and
saw Nicholas waving at him from the Lovers store. He chuckled as he rumbled
his motorcycle to a stop next to him. Turning it off, he took off his
helmet, and looked at the tan-skinned male.

"What're you doing here with a name-tag HERE? I thought you worked at the
Pelican Basket?"

"I do! But I work here too; two part-time jobs." He said with a grin, "Just
wanted to give you this, with my compliments," He said, handing over a
black bag, which contained a few tasteful items. Adam blushed and grinned
as he accepted the bag, and took a peek in it.

"I appreciate this, Nick, but this is kinda embarrassing."

"Don't think about it, just wishin the best of luck between you and your
BF." Adam smiled as he stowed the merchandise with the candy.

"Well, thank you, Nick. I better get back home though, he's been waiting
for me all day."

"Alright, man! Take care!" He said as Adam put back on his helmet, turned
on his motorcycle, and drove off.


~~~


Later that night, Adam breathes deeply as he lays with Merrick. The blonde
man moans sweetly as Adam spoons him from behind. "Ohhhhh..." Merrick moans
as Adam's mouth presses and kisses along his neck. His nose inhales slowly
as he laps thickly into that smooth, creamy flesh.

Merrick's dick twitches as it stands rigid as he feels the growing
attention press into his tender soft buns. He squirms as his legs interlace
with Adam's legs as one of his arms dig in and hold Merrick from
underneath, and with the other hold onto one of those silk thighs, pushing
one up, and holding them firmly in a subtle show of strength.

"Hhhnnn..." Adam huffs as his hot breath flows down Merrick's neck, "Tell
me what you want..." He takes one of Merrick's ears into his mouth, and
starts to chew on it firmly.

"Nnnhh~" Merrick whines as he touches one of those strong hands, "I want
you to mount me..."

"Mmnnn..." Adam's lips smacked and licked around that ear, pressing his
teeth on it and tugging, "What else..." He closes his eyes as he presses
his throbbing erection into those warm, welcoming cheeks.

"I... Gh... I want you to suck my dick..."

"Mnnnn, really..." Adam moans lowly. Merrick blushes and moans pleasantly
as he feel's Adam's warm hand roll and fondle his balls, "I want that
too..."

"Ollhh...~"

"I wanna have some of that hot meat pressing in on my mouth..." Adam
whispers as he nibbles on Merrick's earlobe.

"Unnhh..." Merrick turns his head and kisses Adam's mouth. Before he can
ask his next request, Adam takes a hot breath just before his lips glue
onto his.

"Mllmmmmnn..." Their mouths make wet, slurping laps as they make out
deeply, Adam gently grabbing and rubbing Merrick's rock hard cock as his
own member rubs dangerously close to his pink
hole.

"Hllmm... Nnngghh..." Merrick whines a little
as Adam gently bites Merrick's lower lip. His mouth parted to take a
breath, before Adam firmly grabs him by the jaw, and dives back in for
another hot kiss. "Mmnnhh!" Merrick's arm tenses as Adam plunges his tongue
almost down his throat.

He loves this. He loves having Adam control him in such a gentle way. To
know he is so strong as to possibly force him to do anything for him, but
to hold and touch him in a way that wants to do anything to him instead of
going for his own pleasure...

"Mnnn... Hnngg..." Adam fumbles for the lube on the nightstand, before he
finally locates it. He pops the cap open and presses the nozzle onto the
crack of Merrick's ass.

"Hhhhhh... HH! Adam, wait," Merrick suddenly says, "Adam, stop, stop,
stop."

"What? What is it?" Adam pulls back, and scoots away, seeing Merrick
shuffle around onto his backside. Adam looked, and realized that the shell
slice on Merrick's necklace is glowing and vibrating!

Merrick bolts right up, and gets off the bed, before striding to the
window, and looking outside at the cloudy night sky.

"Merrick? What's wrong, babe?" Adam asked as he too gets up out of bed rose
up. Merrick then turns to face Adam.

"Tonight is a full moon...!" He said, as the clouds apart from a large,
white shining lantern in the sky.
