The night was cold, of All things victor left behind, The guitar was his favorite when Robert struggled to sleep, Or just in random intervals Victor would play his guitar When he had the energy The last song he played was Robert's favorite, Yet again weren't all of them His favorite Robert gently played the chords to the opening of it He played it quietly so nobody Would wake up
"Victor if you can hear me I'm Playing this just for you"Robert said With a smile
"Lately I've been seeing you in my dreams, I Thank you for being here with me, Your eyes as deep as the sea they make me feel so happy, Your sweet little eyes your little smile It's all that I remember Those fuzzy memories sometimes fuck with my temper, It's been forever since I last heard you want name. Same goes for seeing your face, But when I see it again I'll ask that same damned question again 'Will you be my man?'That all I could ever say"Robert sing before losing the motivation Putting up victors guitar, He decided to go to his room for the night Before hearing 2 people talking He looked around No one was on deck, The ship was stuck in another Bit of ice, So they were going to be here for a while longer But there was a wide open Bit of water On the right side not big enough to escape using the boat But big enough
"You won't tell right?"a familiar voice said
"Never in 1,000,000 years brother"Another person said What was up with the guy before voice, It sounded just like victors A little bit feminine but masculine Calm yet commanding
"Victor"Robert whispered going to words The edge of the boat And pinked over the side It amaze him at what he saw Though he didn't see anyone He's so a little tail jump into the water
"Victor?!"Robert asked A little bit louder
No response
Nothing
He knew he was hallucinating, or was he?
Before he heard Singing
He couldn't put his finger on it at first But it became more and more clear
This was definitely victors But victor died a week ago And with nowhere else to put the body They all said their last goodbyes Before dumping the body into the ocean Victor's carcass sink down
Then it clicked
'Victor isn't dead he was a siren Taking the form of a man No wonder why I fell in love'Robert thought, He came up with a strategy he would pretend to not be listening only to be Caught off guard
"Hear my voice beneath the sea Sleeping now so peacefully At the bottom of the sea Sleep for all eternity"Victor sang Before continuing that 1 thing that Usually worked But this time it wouldn't
"Sailors live so restlessly Come with me, sleep peacefully Listen to this sirens' song Worry not for nothing's wrong"Victor continued
At this point Robert was just humming along Robert came up with a plan he wanted to make himself Look like a clueless Sailor, He liked his hair out of his high ponytail And pretending to be intrigued
"Who could be singing at this hour?"He questioned
"Let my voice lead you this way I will not lead you astray Trust me as we reach the side Jumping out where men have died"Victor said
Robert Looked stunned, Everything made sense now
"Hear my voice beneath the sea Sleeping now so peacefully At the bottom of the sea Sleep for all eternity"Victor sang At this point Robert was at the edge of the boat Looking out into the waves Trying to spot where victor could be Eventually he got a bit of the black haired individual
"Let the ocean fill your lungs Struggle not, soon peace will come Taking in your final breath Sink down to the ocean's depths"Victor sang
They made eye contact for the 1st time in what felt like years
Lost in victor's eyes, Robert let out a little Romantic gasp
Victor looked down into the water
"Looks like I have some Explaining to do"Victor asked
"Plenty of explaining"Robert said Smiling
"But wait Usually my song Takes people in, And they jump off their boats, How come you weren't affected"Victor asked
"I think it has something to do with this, The charm you gave me Before you Quote unquote Died"Robert said Showing him The sea shell necklace Victor nodded
"So To answer your questions Yes I can turn back into a human No I don't want to It's not because of you It's because of that thing "Victor said
"I understand but please just follow me when we escape this ice"Robert said Victor agreed They both smiled at each other Robert blew a victor kiss Before returning into his cabin For the night
