1.SpainxReader: Another Mermaid's Tale

You didn't know much about life. You were born only to sit beside a king one day. You knew that. At the age of six, you did not understand much.

You only knew that you loved music.

You loved to listen to it, sing it, write it, breathe it! It was one of the only things you cared about.

You hummed a happy tune as you walked regally down the hall. Mama says a lady never runs. Mama also said today you would get to visit a different kingdom. They had a boy there that was going to be your friend for the rest of your life, they said.

"______, dear!" You heard Mama call in her beautiful sing-song voice. "It's time to go~!" Mama's voice was beautiful. You loved when she sang you to sleep.

"Coming Mama!"

You had been in the carriage for awhile now. All you could see was forest. Forest had become boring.

Your crystal white carriage broke out of the tree line to come upon a beautiful sea. It was something you had never experienced. The waves crashed against the shore in a melodic sound. You smiled in glee. This kingdom looked fun.
--
"Welcome~!" Various townsfolk sang as your carriage passed by. "Hail our future queen!" Rose petals rained down from above greeting you peacefully.

You trailed farther up the cobblestone road. At the top you spied a magnificent castle. It looked fantastic. You stepped out of the carriage, a little wobbly after sitting for so long. Taking a moment to stretch your back, you skipped after you mother. Two men, dressed in mail, opened ornately carved doors to what you assumed was the entryway. The large hall was decorated with columns and many foreign flags. They all had the same red and orange-yellow design, with a crest off to the side. At the end of the hall stood two men. One was as big as your Papa and the other seemed around your age. He had fluffy, chocolate brown hair and grass green eyes. The older man looked like the boy but a lot more rugged. You guessed that was the boy's Papa.

You reached the end and the boy bowed in respect. "You must be _____. I am Antonio Fernandez Carriedo, or Toni if you prefer, mi señora."

"My, your boy is mannered!" Mama said sweetly. Toni's Papa smiled, satisfied.

You curtsied back. "I'm ______."
