"Yes... I feel the same way.... and I'm sorry, Ariel" He looked at her," It'd probably be best if you didn't believe me- but for what it's worth I am..."
It was so obvious she was on the verge of tears, he went over to her and embraced her gently," You're a wonderful person... I wish you all the best in this life"

Ariel hugged him she would miss this, his scent, his voice Ariel couldn't imagine her life with out him.
"I'm sorry to I shouldn't have tried to stand in your way. I will miss you and your better then you think you are remember that. If things go alright then come back or at least send me a sign your okay? Else and I will be worried. " Ariel finished, she placed a kiss on his cheek pulling back enough to at least give him a smile.
"I mean it I want a letter or something," Ariel told him, the wind picked up and she knew it was the last time she would see him.

"I'll do what I can, Love" He kissed her forehead gently," Take care of yourself.... if I come back I don't want to hear that something happened to you- alright?"
Hook gave a soft smile as he dried a few escaping tears

Ariel nodded, "Alright, I will" She took a shaky breath.
"Well then Killian I wish you the best, stay safe and good luck." Ariel told him she held his hand and squeezed it before backing away.

He in turn, left for his ship, leaving her alone.
He hoped that should he perish before he returned, this was the memory he'd have of her in his last moments.

Ariel watched him leave, then Else showed up upset because she missed Hook. Ariel cried on her shoulder happy to have her as a friend. Soon she had to go home Ariel went back to her place.
A few days later she had to see her father finally, she was putting it off for far to long. Ariel made her way to the place Arista told her he could be found.
Ariel braced herself and walked in the bell above the door jingled.

Triton was under a car, working on a troublesome hose, when he heard the bell.
Alana had TOLD him to wait for while she got lunch. Or else he would find himself in this kind of predicament; elbows deep in work when a new customer strolled in. Customer's come first.
"Just a moment." He grumbled from under the car. He set down what he was doing and rolled himself out from under the car. He sat up with a grunt, wiping the sweat from his face with a hanky that he then shoved in his jumper pocket.
"Is this your first time at the Marine Garage?" He finally looked over, catching sight of the bright red hair. He froze.
"...Ariel?"

Ariel had to hold back tears when her father stepped out of the back room. He still had his kind eyes but in this world he was smaller and so different from the sea king he once was.
"Daddy, its me..." Ariel stood in the office, she had no idea what to do she wanted to hug him but he just looked at her like he couldn't believe she was there. Ariel had so much to make up to him she didn't know where to begin.
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to see you.."

"...Ariel???" He said again. Staggering towards her. "Is it really you?" He ran over of took her in her arms. For a moment he thought he had seen Athena, but that was impossible... not after those murdering PIRATES had...
He pulled away. "How did you escape? I thought you would never be free of that accursed pirate's hook!"

Ariel stepped back, her father thought she had been captured? Ariel felt a wave of guilt, her sister was right she was a terrible daughter.
"Daddy, I was left behind in the ocean I wasn't cursed. I came here with Hook but I haven't been his prisoner. I'm sorry, I didn't think you wanted to see me I only ran into Alana a little while ago." Ariel felt tears spring to her eyes, her father looked at her as if he didn't know her anymore.
Maybe that wasn't a problem because Ariel wasn't sure she knew herself either.

"You came here with Hook?" He said, the words not sinking in at first. "Why would you go anywhere NEAR him? That... that PIRATE... You KNOW what Pirates did to your mother..."

Ariel took a breath, "He isn't like that Daddy, he would never hurt me. He even helped me get back the trident when it was stolen remember? It doesn't matter now he is gone..." Ariel felt the pain return.
Her father would never understand, "I just wanted to see you, I'm sorry it took so long."
She couldn't tell her father that she loved Hook, that she saw a rare side of him they were friends.

"ALL pirates are like that..." he said firmly. "Immoral creatures driven by vengeance!" But it was slowly coming back to him. Yes... his trident had been stolen... by a pirate... but Ariel went missing and then came back with it. "You... you could have been HURT. That was NOT your place to go looking for it! What would I have done if something had happened to you, Ariel? " He was pacing. "We had guards, the command of the oceans... but you were GONE. Just GONE! Do you know what that DID to me?" He was full out pacing now. "He had to have talked you into it.... goaded you into it... you would never be so FOOLISH!" He suddenly stopped; with the light just so... she looked so much like... "Athena...?" He murmured, stunned. He reached out and touched her shoulder, as if she were a ghost... but then shook his head of snowy hair. No... it wasn't his wife. He came back to himself. "You stayed with HIM instead of seeking us???" It suddenly dawned on him. "No...no, you were a prisoner... you COULDN'T come, that's why!"

Ariel watched her father in disbelief, Alana was right he was confused. He hated humans and now he was one Ariel understood that much. She didn't know what to say, she could lie and tell him he was right but Ariel couldn't lie to her father not like this.
"I didn't know you were here, after Alana told me I thought you would be angry about my leaving. I should have came sooner father I am sorry. I wasn't a prisoner, I stayed with him because I wanted to I'm sorry but he is different. He saved my life father, more then once."
Suddenly Ariel was glad she wasn't with Hook, she couldn't imagine breaking that kind of news to her father.
Were getting married he will be part of the family yeah right that would go over like a tidal wave!
Ariel couldn't count the times that they had saved each others lives. Still he probably wouldn't care, Ariel was at a lost of what to do or say, she had to see him she missed him.
"I just wanted to see you please forgive me Daddy. I miss you."
Ariel felt like she was 6 again and she for once needed her father. She had lost almost everyone else and Ariel didn't want to crawl back to Else again. She had already done so much for her.

"Why would you need saving? If you were safe within the castle?" He was confused, jumping between two lives, one false, one not; one depressing, one torture to remember. He squeezed his aqua eyes shut. "No... no... you wouldn't do that..." His breathing was getting shallow, his head was getting foggy; he just wanted to run to her and hold her, but rage of a king built up inside of him. "You put you AND your kind in DANGER...Ariel... always surfacing, revealing yourself to ANY humans..." He bit at her. "Did you even CONSIDER what humans were capable off??? Your mother... Attina... EVEN Adella was caught in a net and then DISAPPEARED... the humans are relentless, any sight of a mermaid and they will hunt for MORE..." And then it was as if he hit a wall. Triton clutched his left arm, feeling shooting pain erupt through it. "Uhgh... Alana... where is Alana... " Alana would take care of him. He sank to the floor.
