Ariel went back to the ship she felt drained and empty. Today had really made her questioned everything about herself and before she knew it she made her way into Hook's cabin.
Shocked to find him there and sleeping. Ariel went over to his bed and watched him. Damn it if she didn't love him and hate him at the same time. Her mind went through all the reasons she hated him why everyone did. If Ariel was honest with herself Hook was the cause of a lot of people's anguish. She though about all the times he treated her like his own personal sea wench and his lies.
Before she knew what she was doing she felt her hands wrap around the knife in her purse. She grabbed the white gleaming knife and held it above him.
One stab and she could be free then he couldn't hurt anyone ever again. She was scared how much she wanted to in that moment. Ariel lifted the knife higher she felt a tear run down her face.
Focus on your hate Ariel He hurts people he hurt you ... he doesn't care and he never will and you will lose everything to him...
Then Ariel before she could stop her thoughts they went to all the good moments they shared. Deep down he had something in him worth saving didn't he?
Ariel raised the knife up and slammed it into the bed next to him. Feathers flew up in the air and she bent her head and sobbed.
because she knew the truth she loved him and could never hurt him.
Ariel was doomed to love him forever...

Hook gasped and instinctively grabbed for the intruders throat, then rolled her under him. But that hair... she was crying..... she?
Hook looked at the woman, bewildered to see sad, wet eyes. He let go of her throat and moved away from her,'Ariel... why..? I-I dint think... I ... I'm sorry, Love"

Ariel yelped when Hook grabbed her and then she was under him.
She could't say anything she just looked into his eyes. When he moved away from her the knife clattered to the floor.
Ariel sat up and grabbed her legs... funny how she always found a way back into his bed. She shook with tears streaming down her face.
He would kill her for this...

"Ariel..." he slowly crawled towards her, she wasn't going to kill him- she tried, but she couldn't do that. it simply wasn't in her, something he might have believed to be cowardice in his younger years.
He gently touched the side of her face, he looked over to the knife on the floor," Love... why did you just... why did you just try to kill me?" he whispered

"Because its your fault! All of it and I can't be free until I kill you but I can't.." Ariel cried. "I can't kill you because I love you to much... You stupid pirate!" Ariel yelled hoping anger would take over some of the fear she felt.
"I tried..." Her voice broke.

"Slow down, Love!" He came closer to her," Free of what precisely"

"Free of you!" She spat at him. "Why didn't you one give me the necklace when you got it and two tell me where it came from?" She asked him. She wanted to be angry but it came out broken.

Hook had never seen Ariel like this, and while he didn't appreciate being yelled at- he couldn't return any anger, not this time. Truthfully she had every right to hate him, and because he'd grown closer to her.... he couldn't argue something like this.
He didn't love her, not like Milah, but he cared for her.... enough to tell her the truth.
"Maleficent gave me the necklace.... she told me to throw it into the ocean and be done with it. I thought about it.... but being who I am... I thought I could use the leverage to my advantage," He could tell be the expression on her face that the answer hadn't soothed her at all," I didn't tell you where it came from because... then any leverage I might have had would be gone"
He thought about telling her that had she been given the necklace then and there she would have been swept up by the curse, she would be stuck in this world with untold hardship, but that.... that in her mind would almost be better. Hook thought about apologizing, but he knew it wouldn't be sincere- if given the same scenario again he wouldn't do anything different. He could at least give her sincerity right?
"Ariel... anyone would tell you that killing me.... would be justified- hell, I will even tell you that.... but I don't think that's who you are, Love" He brushed away a tear. He meant every word, but should she try to kill him, he wouldn't hesitate to defend himself- to the point of taking her life.

"You never asked the price I would have to pay for the magic! I can't kill you... but I can't be free from you either. See Killian that's my price my love for you it's the only thing keeping me human. Once I lose it I lose my human from. Now tell me how I can go on like this in love with someone who can NEVER love me back or alone as a mermaid. " Ariel wanted to scream and yell at him but her rage was fading now she just hurt.
"I should cut out my own heart and hand it to you..." Her head fell back in her lap.

Hook had broken many hearts in his life, it just became natural to him, but this... this was different. He didn't want things to be like this between him and Ariel. He wasn't sure exactly what it was he wanted, but it sure as hell wasn't this.
He crawled over next to her, put his arm around her and drew the girl to his chest," Ariel..." What could he say? He could lie, tell her he was sorry, that had he known the price of this magic he'd never have done what he did- but that just wasn't true. In the end... what mattered most to him was his revenge. For the first time... the thought started to make him sick.
No- no, that wasn't right. He'd come so far, and when this was over... he'd make it up to everyone he'd hurt in the process- all the people he'd hurt that he cared about at least.
"Ariel.... there has to be a way...."

"There is.. but I am to weak to do it you just saw that. I don't know what to do and I have something worth fighting for now. I really care about Jefferson but how can I be with him when I am in love with you! I don't want to be alone Hook can you understand that? This world has no mermaids what will happen if someone finds me? It's not even that I am scared about being alone I...I'm just scared." She rested her head on his shoulder.
"I was really trying to move on.." Ariel laughed then it was cold and broken.
"Sometimes I wonder what made me love you in the first place? Your so consumed by revenge and your own motives there is no room for anything else... Everyone in my family always told me I was hopeless and for the first time I can see they were right."

Hook rubbed her shoulder," You're not hopeless Ariel, you're strong... and your stubborn, but not hopeless"
He simply had no other solace he could offer," Ariel, no matter what you won't be alone. You have friends- far better friends than I.... Maybe... there is another way- Mal never told me the price of the magic, maybe there's something else she didn't tell you?"

"Doubt it who knows? She actually said she was sorry... sorry like really? The worst part is if I had known the price I probably would have paid it anyway. Killian you and I aren't so different you know I am selfish I would do almost anything to get my way. I just lack the power to really hurt people in order to do it." Ariel sighed.
"Loving you it isn't all bad but I think we'd make better friends don't you?"

The phrase he'd learned in this world, 'Friends with benefits' came to mind, but he knew that ship had sailed," Yes... I think so... I think I'd like that, Love"

Ariel looked up at him.
"You would? Well great but that still puts me in the same position. What do I do? Damn it I am going to be happy! I don't care if I become a mermaid forever... I can't do this anymore."
Ariel took a breath. "So as mad as I am at you about hiding that necklace it actually worked out in my favor a bit. Just don't lie to me anymore okay? I can handle the truth clearly." Ariel laid her head back against the wall.
It was odd because she was just sitting in bed with Hook and he wasn't trying anything. In a lot of ways she felt closer to him now then anytime when they had been together. Maybe that was because for once her walls were down and his well she wasn't sure he ever dropped them but they were at least lowered even Ariel could feel that.
