She locked her slim arms around his waist. "I feel... better... but... so.. HORRIBLE too..." She choked into his shirt. "I... I think you're right. I NEED to talk to her." She looked up at him, tears in her eyes. "Th-thank you... for pushing me. Even though I thought you needed to back the hell away... thank you for freeing me..." She stuttered. Despite her gratitude, she looked a wet mess.

"Don't thank me Alana its nothing we saved each other remember?" He pulled her into a kiss then unable to stop himself. He deepened it his mouth opened to hers in a way he'd only dreamed about.
He pulled her closer and when he finally ended the kiss he ran his fingers though her soft hair. "I'll drive come on." He took her hand and led her to his car.

The kiss was exquisite. Alana thought she had enjoyed them BEFORE, but it was NOTHING compared to this feeling. No bitterness in the back of her mind making her guilty about doing this with a human... because it was ERIC. She opened up to him as his mouth demanded it, letting him take and give as he wished. When their lips parted she was breathless.
She could only manage a nod when he offered to drive. She got into his car with him, her hands shaking as she latched her seat belt, trying to think about how she would face her sister after all the awful things she had thought and said about her.
But when she looked over at Eric, she was reassured, taking his hand in hers.

Ariel sat on the couch, she flipped through a book not really enjoying it. Ariel was still getting used to the feeling of not caring about anything. It was like something was missing from her but she couldn't for the life of her remember what it was or why she should care it was missing in the first place.
Ariel went to the window and watched the sea for a few moments. There was no missing it no longing nothing. Ariel went back to the couch and closed her eyes, she didn't feel like doing anything else at the moment.

Alana took a breath, looking one last time at Eric for strength... before knocking on the door to Ariel's apartment. The door finally opened and Alana's heart quickened with slight panic, but she didn't run away.
...Ariel... looked awful. Well, she looked BEAUTIFUL, always did... but the spark in her... even when she was sad or hurt by Alana's presence... it was lacking. The older sister shook that thought away.
"Ariel... she murmured. "I'm... can... can we please come in?"

Ariel opened the door not expecting to see her sister or Eric at her place.
"Um sure?" She opened the door wider, Ariel pointed to the table. "Sit if you would like," She sat down and watched them.
Ariel didn't care why they were here or what they came to tell her but she figured she might as well listen. "So what brings you here?"

Alana sat on the couch with Eric.
Shit... she couldn't remember ANY of the things she had gone over on how to START her apology. She would have to wing it...
"Ariel... I'm so sorry." She blurted. "I... I was a lot more bound to that dagger then I realized... but that is STILL no excuse for all those horrible things I said to you. I was angry, yes... but you're right... you made your decisions, and I can't JUDGE you for making them. I should have been there to love you no matter what... and I wasn't. I'm so sorry..."
She got off the couch and knelt down beside her sister's chair. "And... father... that was NOT your fault. Both Hopper AND Whale warned us about his... anxieties and how his body might not react well to added stress. I should have told you from the BEGINNING how he was doing... but I was just so mad..."
Tears were gathering in her violet eyes. "I just want to put this all behind us, sister, if you'll forgive me for all those things I said. I... wasn't quite myself..."

Ariel looked at her sister crying on the floor she was saying she was sorry for something Ariel didn't know what anymore.
"So your sorry about all of it... its a bit to late for that Alana," Ariel trialed if she knew someone one gave a crap she might have not agreed to the deal. Though right now she didn't care at all.
"So father is okay? Well that's good to know. I am not sure what you want me to say. I couldn't care less either way about you feeling bad you treated me terribly Alana." Ariel told her her voice flat no emotion in it because Ariel had none to give.
"I mean what a stupid deal your life for mine such a waste! I am sure your worth more then that...probably. Anyway I'm glad about father, I am however sure it was my fault. I probably sent the old man into a tail spin telling him I've been screwing a pirate for months now. Not exactly the words I used but they might as well have been. So don't be so hard on yourself sister, as you put it this is my fault and for once I totally agree with you."

Alana blinked, flinching at Ariel's wording... though SHE had used the word 'whore' more then she should have in past conversations with her little sister. No wonder why she was acting this way. This was Alana's doing. She placed a hand on her shoulder.
"No... no it wasn't a stupid deal. I love you... that's WHY I did it. And I would do it again. In a heart beat." She said. "I know you have felt so alone in all this... but I promise you... you don't have to feel that way anymore. I'm here for you, Ariel."

Ariel looked at her, her eyes cold. "If you don't think it was a stupid deal then your dumber then I thought. Giving your life for mine for anyone its just useless. Please spare me your pity."
Ariel stood up, "I don't need you Alana, I don't need anyone. I never have why do you think I left home in the first place? Because I was tired of the simple boring dull ways of our people. Then I finally get something that I want a way out of this damn ocean and you think its a curse?" Ariel took a breath, before continuing.
"I found a way out it didn't matter that I had sold myself to become a pirate whore did you ever think for once Alana that I enjoyed being one? It was after all so much easier then being a damn princess. Hook was after all a very experienced man and he took care off all my needs. Maybe you just need a good screw Alana and I am sure Eric will be more then willing to oblige after all we had our moment didn't we?" Ariel shot a look at Eric.
Ariel spoke her voice was devoid of emotion she might as well been reading the news paper for all it mattered.

Alana's grip on her sister loosened, and then recoiled completely.
These weren't Ariel's words... they COULDN'T be... This was Alana's poison. All the things that she would have LOVED to hear her little sister admit when bitterness still clutched at her heart like a talon. She shook her head, refusing to believe what Ariel was saying.
And then she spoke about Eric in such a way. THAT was a sore spot. Alana stood up. "ARIEL, STOP IT." She bit, a warning in her tone. "That... that is NOT acceptable to say. He is a good man and deserves respect, even if you feel I don't."

"Yeah, whatever," Ariel turned back to Alana. "So what else did you want to say? Sorry I'm not more willing to listen to you talk about shit I could care less about."
Ariel crossed her arms, as if to ward off them both.
"Thanks for telling me father is okay. As for the rest you can save it I know how you really feel and its perfectly okay I'm over it. " Ariel was back to being less snappy but she still wished they would just leave because she didn't care in the slightest.
She felt like she wanted to lie down, maybe sleep again which is something she had been doing a lot of lately.

"Ariel, what happened to you? Alana is trying to say she is sorry why are you being so cruel to her?" Eric asked not being able to believe this was the Ariel he had dinner with. She was totally different, mean even Ariel wasn't mean what was going on with her?

"ARE YOU glad father is okay?!" Alana asked, her voice raising. "Because it seems like you don't even CARE. AT ALL. Great Neptune... I understand you're mad at me and can't bring yourself to love me again, but this is DAD we're talking about! And Eric has only ever been friendly to you! What is WRONG with you???" She wanted to shake her sister out of this stupor.

"What's wrong with me? There's nothing wrong with me you have just never been able to see that dear sister! I am who I've always been. Of course I care about father, I may not agree with any of the things he said, poor fool thinks Hook actually captured me." Ariel smiled it was cold and with out any feeling.
"Well I guess he did in a way however none of that matters anymore. So I guess now your just wasting your time being here." Ariel looked at her with cold eyes.
"Just go because I am certain I'll never love anyone again. Don't feel bad sister its not just you."
