I don't know when I'm going to update again because i want to develop the characters more first. i finally have an excuse to watch Disney movies =)

Okay this chapter could be a little confusing but you'll just have to understand that Ariel is sleeping now and this chapter is her dream.


''Mind if I sit here?''

Ariel looked up from her iPod to meet the blue eyes of a boy with black hair. Ariel was startled and it took a while before she could say anything. ''Sure,'' and she pulled her backpack from the table next to her.

''Thank you, I'm Eric.''

''Ariel.''

''Could you help me with another thing to?''

''Okay what is it.''

''Could you tell me the purpose of this class?''

''The purpose of this class? Seriously?''

''Yes,'' he said not understanding.

''You want to know the purpose of home room?''

''Yes, I couldn't find which book we use.''

''You are serious, okay home room is where announcements will be made and where you can catch up with your homework. But how come you don't know?''

''I have always been homeschooled.''

''This must be a big change for you then.''

''It is.''

''I can help you a little if you want.''

''I would love that, thank you.''

''Okay first let me see your schedule. By the looks of it we both have art class next period.''

Then the teacher entered, ''alright class you know the drill all cellphones must stand on mute as of now until the end of the day. We have a new student Eric Bench. Miss Ariel since you're already sitting next to him I expect you to show him the ways of this school. Now do something for yourselves until the bell rings.''

''Do you have any brothers or sisters?'' Ariel asked Eric.

''No, you?''

''I got six older sisters so it's pretty crowded at home. Sometimes it feels like a have tree moms and three sisters.''

''I'm missing one sister in this story.''

''No my mom died when I was little and my three oldest sister took a bit of her role over especially the oldest.''

''I'm sorry but at least you knew your mom I never knew my parents.''

''With who do you live then?''

''I live with my foster parents Carlotta and Grimsby.''

''That's awful.''

''Don't worry they love me.'' then the bell rang. And they put their stuff back into their bags. And left for the next class.


There they picked seats next to each other. They were soon joined by Belle. ''Bonjour.''

''Hi Belle,'' Ariel said.

''Who is this?'' Belle asked.

''I'm Eric and I'm new. Nice to meet you.''

''Nice to meet you to.''

''Okay attention here everyone. Today we'll be drawing this fruit bowl. Get your pencils and start working,'' the teacher said

''Can I ask why you're speaking with a French accent?'' Eric asked Belle while they were grabbing their pencils.

''I was born in a little town in France but then my father got a great job opportunity here so we moved.''

''Don't you miss your family then?''

''A little but we visit every summer and Christmas.''

''What does your father do for work?''

''He's an inventor he works for Gearloose industries.''

''And what does your father do Ariel?''

''My father is the director of some big company preserving underwater flora and fauna. So he is always busy but he says he can't cut back on his hours because he wants that none of my sisters and me get handy downs. That's why none of my sisters moved out. So they can help my father with the household.''

''Can I ask how you two became friends?'' Eric asked

''That's easy,'' Ariel laughed, ''we both like adventures.''

''Yes but like to read about them and you like to have them.''

''You like having adventures to.''

''But you have a knack of getting us in trouble during an adventure and I don't like that so much. You're lucky that your father forgives you so much because you're the youngest. My father expects me to do the right thing because I have to make all his dreams and expectations come through.''''

''But you're dad doesn't expect too much of you. I have to live up to six older sisters.''

''But your sisters are really great and nice.''

''That's the problem.''

''We also like to visit each other's houses,'' Belle explained to Eric. ''I like to visit her to have a big family.''

''And I like to visit her to have some peace and privacy.''

''You sound like really good friends,'' Eric said.


They got to know each other more throughout the rest of the day. And when school ended Eric didn't want to say goodbye just yet. ''Do you want to visit my house?'' Eric asked Ariel.

''I can't I'm on the swim team and we have practice now. But you're welcome to watch.''

''That would be great. Are you coming to, Belle?''

''I'm sorry but I can't my dad expects me right home.''

´´You've got a new book, just admit it,'' Ariel said.

''Okay, I also have a new book which I'm planning to read this afternoon,'' Belle sighed, ''you know me to well.''

''That's the purpose of friends see you tomorrow.''

''Bye.''


Eric enjoyed watching the swim practice. Ariel was really good. Afterwards he came towards her. ''You were really good the team must be glad to have you.''

''Thanks I must go change now my sister is picking me up. See you tomorrow.''

''Okay till tomorrow.''

Ariel tried to change into her clothes as fast as she could Arista was always anxious to get home. When Ariel got outside she saw Aquata's car. She was surprised because she thought that Arista would be picking her up after band practice. But when she got into the car she saw Arista behind the wheel.

''Stealing Aquata's car again?''

''Not stealing, borrowing. Besides this car drives so much better.''

''Dad let us all pick our own cars.''

''True but we couldn't get these anymore.''

When I finally have my own car, stay clear of it.''

''Oh yeah how are the driving lessons going?''

''Good.''

''Need help with anything?''

''No and Attina already promised to help.''

Then they arrived home where Ariel took a quick shower before she was called for diner.


''Ariel why don't you tell us how your day was,'' her father said.

''Good, there's a new boy in the class, we talked a lot.''

''Oh I smell a crush,'' Adella answered excited

''You haven't even met him,'' Andrina said

''I don't mean me but Ariel.''

''You really think Ariel is in love with him?'' Alana said.

''Knock it off you guys,'' Atina said. ''If Ariel is in love with him that's great but it's not our business let her eat in peace.''

Ariel smiled thanking to Attina and went on with her diner. Could her sisters be right? Was she in love with Eric? True he was nice and she looked forward to seeing him again. But in love? Ariel wasn't sure about that.
