Chapter 1
"Ariel, wake up. You're going to be late for school." She heard her sister, but she didn't want to wake up. She was dreaming again about a man, a handsome man.
She was constantly having these dreams since Henry's real mother came to Storybrooke. It was the same dream every night. In the dream she is with this faceless man talking about his adventures in the sea, they are amazing she envy him, his freedom. She decides to get out of bed and go to school. After a shower, she went downstairs and her father and sister where in the kitchen eating breakfast.
"Good morning, daddy" She tells her father at the same time she took a bite of an apple. He smiles. Her house was near the ocean and she just wanted to be in it all day long, and forget about everything and about the man of her dreams. "Good bye, daughters. See you at dinner." Triton said before leaving for his work. He owns an aquarium with his best friend Sebastian; it was beautiful. Sometimes Ariel and her sisters went there to help him.
She went out the door to start walking to school when her cat came running to her. "Flounder! I was wondering where you may have gone too?" Flounder meow. Sometimes she thought that he actually understands what she was saying. But she knows that is impossible. She arrives to school.
"Hi, Ariel." Eric suddenly says behind her back. "Umm…Hi, Eric." She said wishing for him to leave her alone because she doesn't feel comfortable with him and she doesn't know why. It's strange. "Come on, let's get to class."He grabs her arm. Even though he is a year older than her they take a few classes together. Their first class is history and their teacher is a very old Mr. Grimsby, he starts talking about wars. Ariel looks out the window and starts to think about her dream.
She's sitting on rock looking out to the sea. She's singing and it's so beautiful, she looked down at her tail and her heart ached to have human legs. Suddenly she heard something or someone behind her and when she looked she saw a man all dress in black. She jumped in the water at the same time the man yelled "WAIT, STOP! Please." She stopped and raised her head above water. He smiled and said "You have a beautiful voice, mermaid"
"My name is Ariel" She said. He laughed.
"Sorry, love didn't mean anything by it. Let me introduce myself then, my name is Ki…
"MISS ARIEL, be so kind and start paying attention to class."Mr. Grimsby said. The whole class starts to laugh at her and she just wants to disappear. She already hates this day.
