I don't own any of the characters of Inception other than my own and am purely doing this for fun! Just to putting that out there, Now on with the story! :)

Chapter 13

"This is where you're taking me?"

Arthur asked as he arched his brow over at Ariadne as they walked into this small and secluded bar that was near the university. Ariadne grinned over at Arthur as she led him towards the bar. "Yeah this is where I go when my friends and I need a break from school." Arthur nodded as he looked around with mild distaste of the atmosphere.

It pretty much was a regular bar with dart boards hanging on the walls and billiards tables lined up next to each other as patrons played. He then sat down on the bar stool next to Ariadne as she ordered them a beer.

"Interesting place you and your friends visit."

Arthur said skeptically, Ariadne laughed as the bartender placed down two glasses and a pitcher right in front of them. "Yeah it's a really nice place to wind-down." Arthur nodded as he stared at his mug and sighed.

"Alex and I used to go to this little hang out while we were in school. It was a bar but a little bit more elegant than this. We used to stay there for hours just drinking and having a good time after our exams… it was nice."

He said softly as he remembered the memory.

Ariadne smiled and patted him on the back as she took a sip from her drink. "So what happened? I mean last night you guys were practically all over each other and today you are arguing and fighting?" Arthur sighed as he continued to play with his glass, never bothering to look up at her.

"It's my fault really."

Ariadne arched her brow at him as she grew more curious.

"What did you do?"

Arthur snickered and slowly shook his head. "I couldn't tell her that I love her." Ariadne shrugged her shoulders innocently as if it wasn't a big deal. "Honestly how could you?" Arthur finally took his attention away from his glass and looked over at her in complete confusion as she continued.

"I mean she just up and left you without a word and comes back into your life a year later and expects you to tell her that you are still in love with her? Like all that she did to you didn't break you at all? I think that's kinda selfish if you ask me."

Arthur grew somewhat agitated with Ariadne since she didn't have the full understanding as to what really happened.

"She wasn't being selfish. This agency threatened to kill myself and Dom if she didn't go along with what they said. She was trying to protect us."

Ariadne then scoffed.

"So you're telling me that she couldn't tell you that night! She just decided that she was going to disappear? Come on Arthur if she really loved you enough like she said she does then she would've found a way!"

Arthur sighed and slowly shook his head. "You do not get it, in this type to business you do what you're told or they will kill you and your loved ones, it's not a game." Ariadne sighed and slowly shook her head. "I still think there could've been a way." Arthur scoffed, not feeling any better and was starting to regret even coming here.

"Ariadne she did what she had to do and I was the one being the idiot in not telling her how much I care for her."

Ariadne arched her brow at Arthur curiously as she played with her glass. "Why do you love her so much?" Arthur looked at her with complete confusion but decided to humor her.

"I was in love with her the moment I laid eyes on her."

Ariadne shrugged her shoulders, feeling like he wasn't being completely honest with her. "Why?" She asked, Arthur sighed as he finally took a sip out of his drink.

"You obviously never been in love before or you would understand."

Ariadne smirked at him as she turned her body towards him. "And what do you mean by that? How could you possibly even know that I never been in love before?" Arthur scoffed, playing with the rim of his glass.

"Because you do not understand the longitude Alexandra and I's relationship coincides with one another."

He said in a grim tone as he slowly looked over at her.

"When she left I died inside, I felt like a hollow shell that had no reason to continue on and knowing what I know now she felt the same exact way. If you loved someone as badly as she and I love one another than you would understand the monumental series of emotions that go along with being in such a relationship. It becomes an obsession Ariadne she's my heroin and I'm hers, it's a sweet and pure addiction we have and it's something that you cannot just allow to let go overnight."

Ariadne arched her brow at him, astounded by his behavior. "Don't you think it's a little dangerous to fall that deep for someone? It could literally kill you." Arthur snickered and shrugged.

"It hasn't killed me yet."

Ariadne sighed, she knew she wasn't getting to him like she wanted to and decided to turn the tables.

"What would you do if Alex decided that she wants to be with Eames?"

Arthur gripped his glass tightly after hearing that statement and became aggravated by the fact that she even dared to go there. "Then that is her choice… she needs to follow her heart and perhaps she needed to be with me to find Eames." He said in such a hateful tone, while Ariadne placed her hand on his shoulder giving him a remorseful look.

"Maybe you just need to let her go to see if she will truly come back. Maybe what you two really need is to not rush into this relationship and maybe allow things to happen naturally. If you two are really meant to be with one another then it'll happen, just don't force it."

Arthur sighed, knowing that her words were right but hated to admit it. "I suppose you are right." He said softly, realizing that they might not ever be together ever again. Arthur allowed out a large sigh as he whirled around on the bar stool and began to stand up, Ariadne looked at him curiously as she watched him adjust his jacket.

"Where are you going?"

She asked, Arthur looked over at her evenly as he was getting ready to leave.

"Back to the hotel… I have had enough tonight."

He said softly and then left the bar without a word.
