Poseidon left early in the morning to go on the Olympus for "family meeting" as he told you and you were left all alone in the huge underwater castle.

Being alone in all the castle wasn't the best and without your lover you were sure you would get easily bored; you were used to listen at his laughters filling the house and with him around you could go swimming together to visit places of the kingdom.

But that day it wasn't like that; his older brother Zeus called him and he didn't want to disobey him in order not to see his rage.

"I promise I'll return as soon as possible" Poseidon greeted you kissing you in your king size bed before going.

However even if it was early morning and you just got up you became bored in no time.

You wandered around the corridors and halls until you reached the library.

"Reading is good" you thought and then you went to search for a catching book.

You took several books but none was meant to be the perfect one for the moment; only because you just forgot a little thing that is that all volumes were written in Ancient Greek and you naturally didn't know it.

"Uff... I should have imagined it" you repeated after opening the tenth tome and slamming it.

"Argh.. go to hell ancient Greek!" you imprecated and then you lay down on the floor to admire the sea and the mermaids and fishes swimming above the glass roof of the dome.

It was fantastic and for a moment you got lost in that beautiful scenery imaging yourself out there with the mermaids... until when in your head a melody started playing so suddenly and after a moment, while you were still looking up, you started humming a song.. to then finding yourself really singing.

"The seaweed is always greener
In somebody else's lake
You dream about going up there
But that is a big mistake
Just look at the world around you
Right here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things surround you
What more is you lookin' for?"

The Little Mermaid... you giggled thinking that what you just sang fitted so well to you in that moment; it was like you were talking to yourself... and in no time you got caught up in that song. Well, better say you got too carried away that you stood up and having the luck to be alone you started singing loud.

Even though you weren't a singer you kept on; it was just so funny. Singing that song of the Little Mermaid in an underwater castle was not for everyone... only for you and you wouldn't miss that opportunity.

You sang and returned wandering again in the castle.

Under the sea
Under the sea
Darling it's better
Down where it's wetter
Take it from me
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
While we devotin'
Full time to floatin'
Under the sea

Down here all the fish is happy
As off through the waves they roll
The fish on the land ain't happy
They sad 'cause they in their bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
They in for a worser fate
One day when the boss get hungry
Guess who's gon' be on the plate?

Under the sea
Under the sea
Nobody beat us
Fry us and eat us
In fricassee
We what the land folks loves to cook
Under the sea we off the hook
We got no troubles
Life is the bubbles
Under the sea (Under the sea)
Under the sea (Under the sea)

Since life is sweet here
We got the beat here
Naturally (Naturally)
Even the sturgeon an' the ray
They get the urge 'n' start to play
We got the spirit
You got to hear it
Under the sea

The newt play the flute
The carp play the harp
The plaice play the bass
And they soundin' sharp
The bass play the brass
The chub play the tub
The fluke is the duke of soul
(Yeah)
The ray he can play
The lings on the strings
The trout rockin' out
The blackfish she sings
The smelt and the sprat
They know where it's at
An' oh that blowfish blow

No one could stop you now from dancing and singing. You finally were having your time... but... being too busy and concentrated on enjoying your alone time made you lose focus on something else; and that happened when suddenly you felt something pinching your waist catching you by surprise so suddenly that you squealed hard and jumped for fear; all while you heard uproarious laughters filling the room.

"Poseidon!" you smiled bright seeing him he returned but a second after...

"You stupid! You startled me idiot!" you scolded him

But he wasn't able to answer because, well, he was too busy laughing hard; and to compose himself it took long time.

"You should have seen yourself y/n!" he wiped away some tears and still laughing out loud he imitated your reaction of before to then burs into an even louder laughter.

"Too hilarious ahahahah".

But as he noticed you unmoved and serious he composed himself.

"So little mermaid what were you singing out loud?" he teased you hugging you and smirking at you... and you couldn't resist any more so you stopped blushing to laugh hard.

"You idiot" you giggled and gave a light punch at his chest.

And then you got back singing and Poseidon accompanied you.

"Yeah, under the sea (Under the sea)
Under the sea (Under the sea)
When the sardine
Begin the beguine
It's music to me (It's music to me)
What do they got? A lot of sand
We got a hot crustacean band
Each little clam here
Know how to jam here
Under the sea
Each little slug here
Cuttin' a rug here
Under the sea
Each little snail here
Know how to wail here
That's why it's hotter
Under the water
Ya we in luck here
Down in the muck here
Under the sea"
