''So it looks like that new girl Elsa is another loner,'' Belle said.
''Yeah I wonder why she keeps wearing gloves,'' Ariel said.
''I don't know but what i do know is that it's her business not ours.''
''Shoot I forgot to take my medicine at breakfast,'' Ariel said slamming her hand against her forehead.
''You can always go to Jane or Vanessa and take it now.''
''Nah i'm going swimming.''
''Alright, suit yourself.''
Ariel was swimming for about an hour when she suddenly heard a male voice. ''Glad to see you swimming again you loved it so much and you are very good at it to, a real mermaid.''
Ariel shot her head back up above the water. ''Eric?'' she said surprised when she recognized him. ''No this can't be, you're not real.''
''No i'm not real but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy this moment together.''
Ariel climbed out of the pool, ''I suppose.''
''Put a towel on you'll catch a cold.''
''How is this possible?''
''i don't know, but you're in danger, you have to get out of here.''
''But my friends,'' Ariel said.
''They're in danger to.''
''From what?''
''The people that keep you here. They're not who they say they are. If you don't believe me go to the basement where you found me, once there you will find some of the institutes secrets.''
''Does that mean you'll go away again?''
''Not if you don't want me to.''
''How can you even doubt that, of course I want you to stay here with me.''
''Melody is growing fast.''
''She sure is, before you know it I'm a big balloon.''
''I like to see that.''
''Why can't you, you're here now.''
''It's complicated. But you said you have friends here?''
''Yeah Belle is here and I met some new people like Rapunzel, she never left her house before so she has lots of hobbies to keep herself occupied.''
''Belle, I saw him,'' Ariel said enthusiastically to Belle after she had dressed.
''Who?''
''Eric, I talked to him and it was wonderful. But he said that we should go to the basement because there are secrets there. We talked for what seemed like hours.''
''Ariel stop it,'' Belle suddenly yelled. ''Do you have any idea how much it hurts when you talk about him like that? You lost your boyfriend but I lost someone to, a friend. I miss him to and it hurts me every time you say that you saw him. I can't see him and all this time I have been strong for you but I can't be strong anymore,'' Belle yelled with tears pricking in her eyes.
''If you're such a good friend of Eric and me then why weren't you there for his funeral?'' Ariel yelled now to.
''Because I was already here and the nurses thought it was better if I stayed here. But I will not let you turn this into one of your little adventures.''
Ariel walked back to her room while Belle stayed behind crying. ''Wow and I thought I had a temper,'' Adam said.
''Go away Adam, I want to be alone.''
''I thought that maybe you wanted to talk about it but if my help isn't appreciated I'll go away.''
''No wait, it would be nice to talk to someone about it,'' Belle smiled. ''But not here, let's go to my room I made enough of a scene here for one day.''
Adam shrugged, ''if that's what you wish.''
''So you're fighting with Ariel, I thought you were best friends for life and that sort of girl stuff.''
''We are but Ariel sometimes get's to carried away when she's enthusiastic and then forgets about other things, like people's feelings.''
''Who was that Eric she was talking about?''
''A friend of ours and the father of her child. He's death now, murder, they didn't find the body or the killer.''
''That must be hard.''
''Yes it is and Ariel still sees him apparently and then she forgets she's not the only one grieving.''
''How can she see him when he's death?''
''How can I make things appear from out of a book? how do you turn into a beast?''
''Okay, I get it.''
''I'm sorry I just miss Eric,'' and Belle started crying again
Adam didn't really know how to comfort a crying woman, normally woman would comfort each other because they tended together like some sort of herd. Adam finally settled on patting Belle's back. suddenly he noticed all the books in the room, ''so you like to read?''
''Yeah, do you?''
''Actually I have a confession to make, I kindoff forgot how to read.''
''Well then I'll teach you. here let's start with Romeo and Juliet,'' and she picked up a book from her nightstand and handed it over to Adam. ''Let's start here,'' and she opened the book and pointed at the top of the page.
''Uh, twoe?'' he said unsure.
''Two,'' Belle corrected him gently.
''Two households,'' Adam continued.
Okay I have no idea how Adam suddenly turned into the picture but I think it fits. Also we know that Elsa has come to the institute I wonder what her power is wink wink. I put her in this chapter because I saw Frozen last weekend and I loved it at this was the best chapter to put her in so there may be spoilers for Frozen later on in the story but I wil try to give out a warning before that. Next chapter will be the last flashback.
