What if Sonny from General Hospital met Ariel from the Little Mermaid? What if instead of marrying Eric, Ariel married Sonny. Sonny already has all his kids and Ariel is 18. She had grown up on land after Jason found her and raised her. She considers Sam and Jason her parents even though she knows they aren't. Story begins when Sonny and Ariel meet for the first time. They are at Kelly's at that's where they meet.
Ariel walked into Kelly's with Jason in tow. She rolled her eyes as she sat down. Mike came over and took their order. As they were waiting, Sonny came in. Ariel met his eyes as he looked around. He spotted Jason and walked over. Even though he and Jason had worked together for years, he never met Ariel.
"Jason, I'm sorry to interrupt but when you get a second, I need to speak with you." Sonny looked at Ariel and smiled. Ariel smiled back with the same sweet smile. "I don't think we've met, if we did, I would have remembered. Sonny Corinthos." He stated as he held out his hand. Ariel took his hand and shook it never breaking his gaze.
"Ariel… well just Ariel, never really had a last name. If I had to have one, I guess it would be Morgan." Ariel said sweetly. Jason smiled.
"You're his daughter?"
"I guess, I mean Jason and Sam found me abandoned and took me in. He's a very sweet man." Ariel said for the first time breaking Sonny's gaze. Sonny smiled and looked at Jason then back at Ariel.
"So what would you say to a small dinner with me tomorrow night?" Jason glared down at his "daughter". He knew what Sonny always thought he would get on the first date, and he wasn't getting it from the woman he considered a daughter.
"I would be delighted. I'll see you around six?" Sonny nodded and said his goodbyes and left. Mike came over with their food. Jason continued to glare at Ariel. She finally noticed at asked what.
"What? You just agreed to a date with Sonny."
"I know, I was there." Ariel said smiling. "What's the big deal?"
""The big deal is, he only has one intention on the first dates and he's not getting in from the woman I raised. You aren't going on the date and that's final." Ariel rose from her seat and glared down at Jason.
"You can't do that. I'm 18 and I can date who ever I choose. I bet Sam would agree with me. Remember she would have been the mother of Sonny's other child. She will agree that it's fine to go out with him." Ariel walked out of the diner and towards the penthouse. Jason paid for the food and walked after Ariel.
I can handle I child Sam we'll be fine. WHAT WAS I THINKING? Jason screamed in his head. He rubbed his temples as he walked in. Sam came in from the kitchen.
"Uh oh, someone's angry." Sam said with a smirk.
"Oh, Jason's just sore because I got asked out." Ariel said. Jason walked over to the couch and plopped down.
"Tell her with whom Ariel." Jason closed his eyes and put his head on the back of couch. Ariel smirked.
"Sonny Corinthos. I knew that he would have a problem with it, but I thought that you would understand being that you were going to be the mother of one of his children." Ariel told her with complete honesty. Sam just stood there in the door way stunned. The girl she considered her daughter wanted to go out with Sonny Corinthos. She wasn't having any of it.
"You're not going."
"What? But Sam…"
"No buts Ariel, because of my history with Sonny, I know exactly what he wants and he's no getting it from you."
"You two really think that I can't handle myself? Please I raised by you two, I know exactly what to do in case of trouble. Tell you what, let me go on this date and if anything happens you can lock me in my room and kick Sonny's ass." Sam and Jason looked at each other.
"Fine, but at the first sign of trouble you beep me and I'll come running." Ariel squealed with joy.
"Thank you! I have to go call Robin." Ariel raced upstairs to call her best friend. Sam turned and walked over to Jason and sat down.
"Besides the excitement at Kelly's, what did you two do today?"
"Nothing actually, after I told her that she couldn't go out with Sonny, she kind of walked out of Kelly's and wound up here. I paid and went after her. How could she do this, I don't want her to have to deal with something major when she's 18."
"Well, my mom had me when she was 16. Of course, she did give me up, but that's beyond the point. We don't know if Sonny has the same intentions, maybe he actually cares about her. Maybe Ariel will be that one girl to change his life."
"Sam, I don't know, we raised her so well, I just don't want to lose her." Sam scooted closer to Jason. She laid her head on his chest and wrapped an arm around his waist.
"We won't lose her Jason, but she is growing up, if she wants to date, we can't exactly stop her. She is 18 after all."
"I don't care Sam, if she thinks she's going to be marrying Sonny, she has another thing coming." He hopped off the couch and went upstairs to his and Sam's room. Sam rolled her eyes and went back to cleaning the kitchen. The next evening came all too quickly for Ariel, before she knew it, the door bell rang. She raced downstairs as fast as she could without falling and accidently ran into the door. She opened it and tried to look as if nothing happened.
"Hi Sonny, come on in, I'll only be two minutes." She climbed back up the stairs and finished her makeup. Jason came into the foyer and approached Sonny.
"Look Sonny, I don't know what exactly you have planned for tonight, but I better end with Ariel here at the end of the date." Sonny held his hands up in surrender.
"Jason, if you think she's going to try anything on her, I would never do that. She's 18 Jason she has her whole life ahead of her." Ariel came down the stairs in heels that she could actually walk in.
"Jason, stop scaring him. He's your boss, ready Sonny?" Sonny turned to her and his mouth went dry. Ariel was wearing a short strapless red dress that stopped before her knees, red heels that were about two inches high, and had a small black half jacket. Ariel smiled at the sight on Sonny's face. She walked over and snapped her fingers in front of his face. He blinked and shook his head. "Ready?"
"Um, yeah, come on." He offered his arm and she took it.
"Bye guys, I'll see you later." Ariel called over her shoulder. When they made outside, Sonny opened up the door for Ariel and she slid in. Sonny then got in and told the driver where to go. "Where are we going?"
"To my house, I thought that I would cook you dinner." Ariel smiled as she looked at him. Sonny couldn't keep his eyes off of her. He thought that she looked so beautiful. When they got to Sonny's house, he led her inside and told her to get comfortable while he started dinner. Ariel just shrugged and sat down. She started looking at pictures of Michael, Morgan, and Kristina. She smiled when she saw one of all of them together. "What are you looking at?" Sonny asked as he came in the room. Ariel looked up and placed the picture back down on the table.
"Just these pictures, your kids are look great."
"Thanks, dinner's ready when you are." Ariel nodded and followed him into the dining room. They sat down and began to eat. "You know you're the first person to see this dining after its remodeling."
"Well, I must be pretty special."
Yes you are he thought but didn't dare say it out loud. He was beginning to lose control on his emotions and knew that if he didn't get her out the house soon, exactly what would happen. He promised Jason he wouldn't hurt her and he had no intention of breaking it. He's seen Jason pissed and really didn't want to see it again.
"Sonny?"
"Um?"
"You spaced out, I asked if you'd like to what some TV before I have to leave." Sonny looked at the clock and saw that it was only 7:30 so he said sure. As they sat and watched, at some time Ariel had fallen asleep and her head ended up on Sonny's shoulder. He looked at his watch and saw that it was after 10. He picked her up bridal style and put her in the car and drove her to the penthouse. When he got there, he called Jason and told him that Ariel had fallen asleep. Jason said he would be right down to get her. After getting Ariel out of the car, he carried her upstairs and placed her in her bed. He left her in the clothes that she was wearing, even though he knew she would hate it. He walked out the room and went to his and Sam's room. After making sure Sonny left, he fell in to a peaceful slumber.
