POV Gumiyeong

How could he not realize I like him yet? Is he that dense? Or does he just not like me because I'm a 'monster'.

I stared across Merlin's room directly into his eyes. They were closed, he was sleeping. I looked around the room I called home for the last year… it was basically a man cave. It had a mini fridge installed along with a huge TV. It also had a bathroom he built himself connected into his room with a fully running toilet and shower.

Even though he was an orphan he decided to build another bathroom so he didn't have to walk down the hallway. That was my Merlin Wynn.

Merlin Wynn.

He spent most of his day school, 8 hours without him… Then 5 hours studying magic and 3 hours hanging out with me. 8 hours of sleep as well.

How should I increase the amount of time I spend with him? The only answer was to either get better at magic so I could help him or… I could join him in school! With my charm speak it would be no problem!

Then it's decided! I'm going to school!

The next day

Merlin's alarms have been going off for three minutes.

I walk over to his bed on the other side of the room and start to shake him gently, "Rghv… Gumiyeong? Oh right thanks for waking me up."

He grips my hand tightly and raises himself up with it. Our faces nearly touching. I blush deeply.

He then waddles over to the bathroom and I hear the shower start to run with immediate hot water thanks to his water magic. I was jealous.

Merlin quickly went through his morning routine before I coerced him to give me a hug before he left.

His unkept, some how naturally blue hair, still wet.

I collected the hair that fell from his head into a jar before hiding it away. WHAT?

After I was sure he left I went outside of his house and walked in the direction I knew his school was. Over the year I had been with the love of my life my charm speak and shapeshifting had significantly improved.

To the point where they were almost two times as powerful. In fact I felt something I never felt before, my tenth tail was growing.

Anyways after a 35 minute walk I stood in front of the school. Taking a deep breath I pushed open the front door and knocked on the door to the principal office.

Speakers around me suddenly sounded, "Who and why are you here? I don't recognize you?"

I coughed and let my charm speak do the work, "Actually I have been a student here for years. My records just got deleted. I am best friends with Merlin Wynn also the sane age as him, he can attest. My name is Gumiyeong… Gumiyeong."

"Ahh! I see of course miss Gumiyeong Gumiyeong! Anything else I can do for you?"

"Ah yes make all my periods the same as Merlin Wynn. Also make it so I sit right next to him."

"Of course of course! Come right in! We have an extra of everything you need for the year! Take it! Also I will give you a schedule!"

That went better than expected.

A few minutes later.

"Merlin! It's Gumiyeong!" I should in happiness seeing him. Merlin raised his head from where it was and looked shocked, then happy, then worried.

I crashed down unto the seat next to him and hugged him tightly into my chest, which he responded in kind. Before he backed away worriedly. What was he worried about?

He leaned over to my ear and whispered into my beat red face, "Gumiyeong… you do realize the SCP foundation will be after us because of a new person appearing out of nowhere?"

Oh. Yeah I had forgotten about them. Oh no no no… did I just screw over Merlin's life?

My face must have obviously turned aghast as he soothed me by caressing my silk black hair. "It's fine…. Trust me… I'm not mad at you. - was he? - In fact this is exiting. Finally some action! Maybe I can coerce a deal for you and me's freedom?"

I didn't like the fact he would have to make a deal in the first place. I put my head on his shoulder while crying slightly. He continued to caress my hair. "For now… let's enjoy our time together… because believe it or not I enjoy being around you just as much as you do for me."

I smiled on his shoulder.

8 and a half hours later.

I was shaking violently as we walked home together. Merlin wrapped his arms around me for support. I wriggled closer into his chest and closed my eyes.

My eyes shot open when I heard the noise of talking. "Mr. Wynn this is the FBI - the man in black pulled out his identification card- and we need to take Miss Gumiyeong from you for a moment."

My eyes went up to look at Merlins. His eyes were on me too. "Hmm. No I don't think I will give her to you."

The man in black frowned, "That was not a request, but an order, Miss Gumiyeong is VERY dangero-"

"Shut your trap. I know who and what she is. I know that before she was a heartless liver eating monster. But now? With my help she is different."

He wasn't wrong.

The man in black looked genuinely shocked. "Huh? She told you? Then you should be disgusted with everything about her! She has killed thousands of innocent civilians!"

Merlin sighed, "I know. But do I look like I give a fuck? If she was such a danger why not just -he makes air quotes- remove her from the system to begin with? Your foundation is kinda dumb."

The man in black reaches for his gun. I blink and the gun is instead a nerf gun. He raises it without noticing, "Give her here. I don't care if the foundation is stupid or not, I have orders. And you? You are probably just enraptured by her appearance."

Yeah right, him enraptured by beauty? Sure he might be SLIGHTLY influenced due to his teenage status, but he would spend every moment with magic if he had the chance. Well and me ~hehe~.

The man then noticed his 'gun' had changed. "Wh- STOP RESISTING!"

Merlin sighed again. "I'm not resisting, I'm just arguing she is not a monster. I want to go with her."

The man in black was confused, very much so.

"Why would you want to go with her?"

"Because she is my best friend by leaps and bounds and leagues higher than you can count."

~hehe~

"So you are saying you want to become a foundation staff member? Such as being the janitor?"

Merlin laughed, "No, I want to be a SCP with her, or even better we can both be researchers at the facility." The man in black frowned even deeper, "Are you anomalous in any way? And why do you say SCP-953 is not a liver eating monster anymore?"

Merlin raised his hand and a human liver conjured out of thin air.

"So what, you are a liver man? Your power is to make livers?"

"Hahaha. NO. My name is Merlin. That give any hints?" The man in black took a step back, "Y-You, no way!"

Merlin raises each of his hands and lightning appears in one and fire in the other. The man in black falls on his back, "R-Reality warper….."

"No, I am not a reality warper, but a mage. As a peace offering to the foundation let me tell you one thing, I have mana."

The man gets up and runs into his car and drives away. Several other vehicles also start to drive away.

My heart starts to beat faster. Merlin… he… I definitely love him. My gaze turns revertant towards him. He was the man that didn't see me as a monster once he knew who I was… he gave me food, shelter, and a name. But most of all… he gave me love.
