Ariel sat in front of her vanity read her shower robe. She was brushing her wet hair as she stared at herself in the mirror. She stared at her green eyes that the amulet had given her. Green eyes that James hadn't noticed. She wondered if he could even see them.. Flashbacks of what Thrax did to her and how she reacted went through her mind. But she wasn't crying. She felt too upset to cry. She had no more tears to cry after what happened with Frollo. Plus she didn't want to cry, not with the baby. If she got sick she would hurt it. Her eyes blinked as she continued to brush her hair as she remembered what Thrax had told her.. How James and this Eric guy had kissed while Frollo raped her. Her hand gripped tighter on the brush as she felt herself starting to get emotional. She blinked and looked down at the teddy bear James had given her for their child, trying to get her mind off of it. But she couldn't.. She twitched a bit as she felt some angry and sadness well upside her.. So when she heard James come in she turned her head to look at him. He gave her a smile, but all she could give him was a small one.. Her eyes told him everything though. She wasn't okay. She finished brushing her hair before she got up and went to the closet to get dressed. She put on a green dress that she had made herself. It fit well with her golden hair. And once she got it on she cleaned up after herself. She picked up the brush and put it back in the drawer of her vanity. Which was when James asked her what was wrong, which made her stop as she looked down at the vanity.. Ariel stood in silence before her head lowered. "Who is Eric," she started, "And why did you kiss him while you were in Jail?" She asked as she didn't raise her head up once to look at him in the eyes. Not wanting to right now. She didn't want to break down. She needed to avoid that. Her dress

James made his way upstairs and stifled a yawn. He had been up all night making plans for the nursery that he hadn't even realized what time it was. Ariel must was wondered where he was last night. Besides, he wanted to check up on her. Thankfully her sickness had started going away now that she was getting used to being pregnant, but he was always worried that she'd be sick and not tell him. He knocked on the door lightly before entering and flashed her a smile. "Good morning. How are you feeling?" James couldn't help but notice that she seemed to be in a different mood. She didn't smile at him like she usually did. When she didn't look at him for a moment and got dressed, he started to worry. Was she upset with him for not coming up last night? Had he done something to upset her? "Is everything alright? Are you sure you're not feeling sick?" He started to walk over to her so he could give her a hug but his movements froze at her words.
"Who is Eric, and why did you kiss him while you were in Jail?"
James blinked, baffled by what she had just said. "How...oh gods, how did you know that?" Guilt washed over him as he remembered that night and he frowned. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you...I just, I just wanted to forget about it." He hung his head and shoved his hands into his pockets. "Eric has been a friend for years. He came to visit me and I know that he's had feelings for me. I won't lie to you, I did have some in return for him at one point in time, but that was all before I met you." James took a few steps towards her but he stopped a few feet away when she turned away from him and he frowned. "I've already told him that I can't be around him anymore because I love you. I didn't want to keep giving him false hope." He tried to get her to look at him, wanting her to know that he never meant to let that kiss even happen.

Ariel looked up the moment he asked her how she knew that. She saw the guilt in his eyes and immediately knew what she had accused him of was true. She felt her bottom lip shake a little bit as she turned around to look at him. She listened to what he had to say before she would talk. Eric was a friend of his who he had feelings for at one point. But it had changed the moment he had met her. She stood silent as she listened to what he was saying, almost not believing it.
He walked closer to her, causing her to look away from him. Only to look back at him when he told her he had rejected him. She watched his body language and expression, seeing how guilty he looked. She waited a couple of minutes before she started to speak.
"I can't tell you who told me, but it wasn't from you." She said as she felt her gaze harden a bit. "So you decided to kiss this friend of yours while you were in jail and I was being violated by your father?" She asked as she started to let him hear how hurt she was by this. "You kissed someone you knew had feelings for you? Even though we are engaged and now have a baby on the way?" She asked as she took a step forward, her hand going over her stomach.
She could feel the tears welling up in her eyes before she wiped them, refusing to cry. "And you told him after you kissed him you couldn't be around him anymore? Why not before? Why not before you touched someone else other than me?" She said before she gasped as she looked away, her hand running through her bangs. "I was being... and you just.." Ariel said as she couldn't finish the sentences as she started to feel sick again.
Her eyes closed as she covered her mouth and made a motion as if she was going to puke. Her free hand held onto the vanity as she tried to take control over her body, not wanting to puke.

James sighed as she brought up what his father had done to her and how he did what he did while she was going through that. He could hear the hurt in her voice and it made his heart drop. When she took a step towards him, her words filling with more and more hurt, he felt himself shrink back from her. Her questions came at him all at once and he lowered his gaze. "Ariel, I've felt so guilty about this please just..." He froze as she made a gesture that she was about to puke. James raced across the room and grabbed the trash can from the bed, running back to her and holding it out in front of her, his hand resting on her back lightly. He knew she was getting upset by the fact that she was feeling sick like this and that made him feel even more guilty. James gently sat her back down on her vanity chair, making sure to keep the bucket in front of her the whole time. He waited a moment for her to give him the okay before he pulled back slightly after setting the trash can down in front of her. "I'm sorry, I really am..." He grabbed a chair and sat down across from her, keeping a close eye on her in case she felt sick again. "I know I made a mistake and I understand that it upset you...I know my father was hurting you and I did nothing about it..." He ran a hand through his hair and sighed.

Ariel grabbed the trash can the moment he held it out in front of her. She sat down as he rubbed her back and stayed there, keeping the trash can close in case she would throw up. She made a few gagging noises but nothing came out. And after a while of that she finally calmed down. She let out a sigh of relief as she removed her hands from the trash can, nodding at him she was okay. She listened to what he said as he sat across from her. She looked at him and softly sighed to herself before she scooted to the edge of the chair to get closer to him.
"How could you do anything about it?" She said as she caressed his cheek. She pulled away from him and sighed once more as she tried to figure out what to say. Half of her wanted to forgive him, while the other half wanted to be mad at him. But she knew she couldn't be mad at him. He was honestly sorry about it. He didn't leave her for Eric, he stayed here with her and even told the guy he couldn't see him anymore. She fiddled with her ring before looking up at him.
"If I ever see him, I'm not going to be nice.." She said in a little teasing voice as she softly smiled at him. She leaned closer to him as she grabbed his hand. "I'm still hurt, but I forgive you.. Just, no more kissing your friends, okay? I'm the only one allowed to kiss you.. And I'm the only one you should kiss. I am the mother of your child after all." She said as her smile widened.
"And sorry for bringing your father up, that wasn't fair to you." She said before she leaned forward and had her forehead lay against his. "I love you.." She whispered before she pulled away from him. Though as she did, she felt herself falter back into feeling upset.. She wondered if it was because of her hormones. She wanted to let it go, but it was hard to..

James almost flinched as she moved closer to him and reached out her hand. Images of the two of them, of his father and her, flashed through his head and he thought she was going to slap him for it. He closed his eyes as her hand caressed his cheek and he leaned his head lightly into her hand. The warmth from her fingertips made him feel a little better. The thought of what his father had done to her still made him sick to his stomach and the fact that he couldn't do anything about it made the feeling even worse. It was already churning at the thought but he tried to ignore it. At her words, he looked up at her, giving her a half hearted chuckle at her words. "I wouldn't expect you do be. And I promise. I am yours and only yours." He gave her a small smile before lowering his gaze again. The thought of his father still bothered him but he knew that it was all in the past. She was already starting to move past it and he couldn't let it eat him up for the rest of his life. When she apologized about bringing up his father, he gave her a small nod, letting her know it was alright. He felt her rest her forehead against his and whisper that she loved him. "I love you too." James gently took her hand in his, placing a kiss on the back of it. He leaned forward and then kissed her lips lightly, wanting to be close to her but leaving her enough space in case she wanted to move away from him.
