He had to admit, he was a bit surprised by Ariel- but he certainly didn't mind and wasn't about to refuse. He returned the kiss and traced her jaw with his fingers, beckoning her to come closer. He realized everything about this was emotion driven in Ariel's part, the poor lass had nearly drowned- and a part of him wanted to stop knowing this....
...he didn't feel the same about her, he couldn't.... but he kept chasing her lips with his. If there was no feelings behind the kiss on is end, if he didn't care about her why would he stop? Why did this feel so wrong....

Ariel continued to kiss him and brought herself closer to him. One leg on either side of his lap because all she could register was him.
The kiss broke and she began to kiss his neck. Ariel wanted just to be near him and she was lost in her emotions which were all over the place.
"I love you..." Before she could even stop herself or think about what she was saying. It was out Ariel froze, she looked at Hook "I mean I didn't mean that of course I didn't mean it.... Lets just go back to this." She told him grabbing the ties of his pants and kissing him. With any luck that would distract him enough to forget what she said.
She didn't want to think anymore about it or even touch on the subject of why she told him that in the first place. Ariel hadn't loved him since she was a mermaid had she? She forced the thought from her head by kissing him.

I love you...
That gave him pause. He looked at her, shocked by the sincerity in those words. She loved him, and... he couldn't love her. This had been said to him by so many women, he'd been told a thousand times by one-night stands and he could have cared less. They had met nothing to him....
He turned away from her lips," Ariel.... you almost drowned... and I'm exhausted, I think..." He rested his hand on hers and moved her fingers away," It'd be best if we... we did this another night"

He was pulling away from her?
That was shocking even if he didn't care he'd never turned her away before. "Will.. you just stay? I don't want to be alone." She told him. If he didn't want her anymore that was fine but Ariel didn't wish to be alone tonight.
The feeling of loss at not being able to go back to where she belonged was far to raw and new. If he was close to her that would be enough. She pulled herself out of his lap and laid back down on the bed. She moved over to make room for him.
"Stay?" she repeated.

He really didn't want to.... but she had been there for him before, he owed this much to her.
"I... I can stay.... I suppose," Hook slid in next to her, place his arm around her, but didn't have much to say...

Ariel cuddled in next to him. It felt right safe, warm and all the things it shouldn't actually feel. Hook didn't feel anything for her and she could lie to herself all she wanted. It wasn't going to change that fact. "Why did you save me?" She asked her voice weak from the water and crying.

He closed his eyes and set his chin atop her head, his fingers stroking with her bright-red hair," I.... I couldn't let you drown love, as... upset as I was I don't think I could let you die" he in breathed her scent,"... I know it doesn't always seem like it, but Ariel, I care-" He stopped himself
"I have a heart.... and loosing you to the sea like that.... I wouldn't wish for it"

Ariel held on to him, his nearness had always brought her a comfort she never truly understood.
"Thank you... I don't know what I was thinking maybe I could go back just for a bit... if I did the ocean wouldn't call me I wouldn't miss it as much. I love having legs but its complicated. I just needed time to figure things out I guess..." She sighed.
"Does the ocean still call you?" She asked as an after thought. Maybe she just wanted to hear his voice she loved his accent and his voice lulled her into a peaceful feeling she couldn't describe.

"....it's complicated," he answered back, he wondered how long it would take for her to fall asleep. The gentleman thing to do, and he used the term loosely, would be to stay the night.... but he wasn't sure he could force himself to.
Besides, he'd rather not talk about himself, that was the great thing about most women. They liked to talk about themselves, they'd tell him their life story and then some if he gave them the time- but it was only a rare few who actually cared to listen to him...
"....I try not to think too much of it these days"

"Why don't you really want to see what this world has to offer away from this small town?" She asked him. Ariel wasn't sure why she cared about what he wanted to do but she did.
"From what I know they don't have many pirates here but you could sail to anywhere you wanted..." She was rambling now. A small part of her wanted to let him go back to his cabin and sleep.
Most of her just wanted him close and that was how she got in this mess in the first place. She stopped talking for a moment and just stared. Ariel loved him that much was clear and she had to pull away before he destroyed her heart more then he already had.
"I'm sorry you don't have to tell me... anything if you don't want to."

"I... I might still do that, but I like I said I try not to think about it..." The truth was he hadn't put much thought into what he was going to do after he had even the score with The Crocodile. Truthfully there'd be nothing left for him, not in this world or the one from which he came. Maybe that's why he didn't want to think about the future.
"I came here with a purpose in mind, and until I get my Revenge... There's no reason to really look into anything else"

Ariel sighed. "Your revenge will be the death of you. A life you could have had wasted. Does life really mean that little to you..." Ariel stopped herself.
"I'm sorry you probably don't want to talk about this... I just always saw more to you than a man driven by revenge but if you can't see it than whats the use in talking about it." She closed her eyes for a moment.
"Maybe one day you will see it to maybe there is something out there a reason to keep going. I at least want to believe that..."

That hit him hard, he sat up ,"Maybe..."
That was everything he didn't want to hear, it was the truth. He didn't want anyone to care for hi, he didn't want to think about the future, he didn't want to live... or at least he didn't want to live beyond his ambitions in this world.
He slid his legs off the bed and stood," I have some things to do yet tonight," he lied," I'll see you in the morning... if your still there"

Ariel had been waiting for one of the things she said to drive him away. This had been it but it was to late to take back any of it.
"Thank you than for saving me..." She curled into the pillow feeling his warmth leave her bothered her more then it should have. Before he made his way out of her room she called out to him.
"Do you care if I am here in the morning or will you throw me out again?" She asked alarmed by the pain in her own voice.
She hurt so bad she wondered if she would ever feel okay again. Damn it if wasn't so intent on pushing her away she would love him until she died. Ariel knew he cared if he didn't he wouldn't have pushed her away like this. She had no choice but to let him go you couldn't love someone who didn't want to be loved. So Ariel turned away from him not waiting for an answer and let her tears fall when he couldn't see her.

"No... stay the morning if you need to, I suspect you'll leave as soon as your able" Hooks voice were void of any emotion.," Sleep well, Ariel"
With that he left for his own cabin. He wasn't really sure what he wanted, he both loved and hated Ariel... She reminded hi of everything he loved in life, but forced him to feel things he didn't necessarily want to feel again.
He hardly slept that night, his mind far from easy with thoughts he could no longer supressed
