Ryan wrapped his arms around his wife of just over a month as they lied in a bed which wasn’t their apartment or even a hotel room.
Instead, it was a former beach front hotel which had been taken over by the government as a transformation center for those people infected with the mermaid virus. The hotel beds had been replaced with hospital beds, the beds where larger then normal to fit people when they grew their mermaid or merman tail.
“Not how I expected to deal with our first month as a married couple.” stated Amy as she rolled over to face you.
Both of you where fresh out of college and looking forward to building your life together as a married couple.
“No…I expected wild sex every night and morning.” Stated Ryan as Amy grinned before kissing him.
“Well, we can still do that.” Offered Amy
“Doctors say that speeds up the change.” Countered Ryan as he eyed his wife, she was beautiful to him, a little bit taller then normal but he was tall for a guy. Thin athletic, with medium size breasts which he wished was a little larger but he knew there where plenty of things she wished was different about him physically and a good ass. But physical appearance was only part of it, she was funny, caring and had a playful attitude.
“I know.” Said Amy more then some disappointment in her voice. “However, the doctors don’t know much about this damn thing.”
“Agreed, but why risk it.” Offered Ryan, he was the more careful and planner of the two of them. When it had come to their wedding, he had done almost all the planning. It helped that his accountant/business degree helped him manage the budget. “I am in no rush to go into the water.”
“Well at least you will have gills, so no risk of drowning.” Offered Amy, she knew Ryan had almost drowned as a kid and therefor had a slight fear of water. He wasn’t deadly afraid of the water; he just would rather avoid water deep enough to drown in.
“Only risk is losing my dick.” stated Ryan, not wanting to think that he had around a fifty percent chance of becoming a woman and then a mermaid. Half of all man infected became mermaids.
“And I have a chance to get a dick, no reason to worry about it.” Countered Amy, not adding the chances she would become a man and then a merman was extremely small, as she nuzzled into him. “Let’s get some sleep, maybe tomorrow we will awaken to find out they found a cure.”
“Hopefully.” confirmed Ryan as he pulled his wife close and let sleep take him as she let sleep take her.
Tomorrow would bring another day but not a day either of them would want, phase two of the change was about to begin.
