Ariadne found Frank at the Internet Café. He was sitting at a table with his laptop editing a film he recently shot. Frank didn't notice her taking a seat across from him.

"Why aren't you outside?" she asked. "It's beautiful out."

"By beautiful, you mean 'hot', right?"

"Yeah. It's hot out." Ariadne remembered how bitter cold it was in Perry Sound. "Beats winter in Canada."

"Well I would be outside at the pool but I have work." He said excusing himself poorly.

Ariadne got off her chair and stood beside him to peer at the screen. "What are you working on?"

"A little short film." Frank was going over the same shot again and again as if he just knew there was a problem.

"About?"

"It's for a horror film making contest." He explained. "It's about a woman who's being chased in the woods by a guy with a gun…"

"Wow, I've never heard that plot before."

"But she gets to a farm and the farmer takes her in to protect her. The twist is the guy trying to kill her is the good guy. She's infected with a flesh eating disease and she eats the farmer and his wife, then infects the guy. The end."

"Wow… That's a really good twist." She praised him.

"Why thank you. First place is ten grand."

"Seriously?" she asked. "Over a fifteen minute film?"

Frank nodded. "It's going to be a short film they'll never forget." He sounded far to proud of himself. "So what brings you here?"

The plan was about to come into play but it could only advance from Franks positive answer.

"Well… the ship is having this prom thing near the end of the cruise and I thought, you know." She hoped he'd say something. "Would you wanna go with me?"

Frank leaned back in his chair. "Hmm… well you're really cute and I haven't been asked already so…"

"Take time to think about it." she said, her stomach expanding in her throat.

"Why not?" he smirked. "It'll be fun." His smiled said, 'I can't wait!'

Ariadne then wanted to tell him what was really on her mind. She wasn't comfortable using him, especially after he forgave her for being savage to him in high school. What if he found out on his own and never got over it? Hurting Joe was not her concern. The idea of hurting Frank frightened her.

It was a risk she had to take and that moment was the best time. Unfortunately, Frank got up and said he had to leave.

"Shit."

Dressed like Emma Frost at a pool party and reading French Vogue, Joes eyes were locked on the purses printed on the slick pages. The beach chair beside her was empty for only a minute when she sensed somebody taking a seat there.

"Hi." The person looked at the magazine cover then scratched his last word. "I mean bonjour."

"I have a boyfriend." She didn't bother to look at him.

"That's ok." Joe placed the magazine down. "He's the guy in the blue shirt that just went that way, right?"

"Yeah, that's him."

"Ok…" Kevin looked around to see if anyone was listening. "There was a girl up the stairs drawing a picture that looked like him."

"That's interesting…" It wasn't too interesting. But wait… "Who was drawing him?"

"Some little girl in a scarf."

Joe hid a gulp and slipped off her round sunglasses.

"Was this little girl with a tall ass red-head?"

Kevin shook his head. "She was by herself then Jayne Alvers started talking to her."

"We're going to meet her tomorrow. I think we're having a spa trip with her?"

"Do you have something worthy to tell me and if not, why the hell are you here?" Joe snapped.

"Uh… that girl was sketching your boyfriends head and she was talking to Jayne Alvers about trying to steal him."

Joe just laughed. "He would never cheat on me." She said. "And what happens in my life is none of your business you creeper!"

"I can prove it to you." He insisted. "I have a baseball cap with a camera in it that I brought for the excursions."

"You are not spying on my man." She snarled a warning. "There is nothing going on. I would know."

"Who is this?" Arthur had returned from the restroom to see his chair occupied by an uninvited guest. Luckily for Kevin, Arthur didn't hear a word of their conversation.

"Rodger, he just came up to me and started creeping at me." She told him.

"Ok," Arthur pulled Kevin up. "You have to leave."

"Fine." Kevin snorted. As he walked away, Kevin gave him the finger. Arthur watched him like a dog until he was at the other side of the pool. When he lay back on the chair, he noticed Joes mood flipped upside down.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Joe sighed. "Nothing."

"When a person says nothing it means something is wrong." He told her. "What is it? Did he say something to you?"

"I guess I have PMS or something." She lied again. "It'll be over by the time that prom comes."

"Do you want me to get you some ice cream?" he suggested.

"No." her eyes were back on the purses.

The drifting ship felt soothing like the silk sheets they laid on. They would be in far more trouble than before if they kept giving into temptation. But they were alone in a place only one other person had the key to.

"So did you ask Frank to the 'prom'?" Arthur snuggled beside her sliding a fibger over her hair.

"He said yes." Ariadne reported. "But I feel bad for this… I think he should know about our plan."

"Why?"

"Well because I've hurt him a lot in the past and it's only fair I tell him this." Ariadne sighed. "Seriously, I was very mean to him. I don't want to hurt him anymore. Maybe he'd be more willing to help."

"First you need to know for sure this guy can keep a secret."

Ariadne was flipping through the channels to see if anything on looked good. She stopped at a shot of the Eiffel Tower being shredded to bits then falling.

"Not this movie." She turned the TV off. "You can't play a bad movie on a movie channel."

"What was that?" Arthur asked.

"That was that stupid GI Joe movie." Ariadne rolled her eyes. "I actually had to go see it in theaters."

"Why?"

"Jules used to have the biggest crush on Channing Tatum." Ariadne explained. "She said if I saw it with her she would stop talking about how they were going to be married and about their kids and… I fell asleep."

"I would have also." He agreed. "So how was your day at sea?"

"It was fine." Ariadnes head moved closer to his. "But then some creepy guy came up to me and started flirting with me. I told him to leave me alone and Jayne had to get rid of him."

Arthurs eyebrows rose. "What did this guy look like?"

"A little chubby, a few tattoos and glasses." She described simply. "Jayne took good care of him."

"That same guy was talking to Joe when I left her alone for a second."

Ariadne felt her guts exploding. "He talked to Jules before me and then her? Oh shit." She sat up and looked out the window.

"What's wrong?" he gazed over concerned.

"… Nothing."
