Ariel paced back and forth in the large dining hall, her bright red hair turned golden as it caught the sun.
"Dont be so nervous" prince Eric finally said "They are all going to love you!"
"But what if they think i am strange Eric!?" she said "What if they don't like me!?" she was becoming more and more nervous as she watched the clock, only an hour until they arrived.
"Ariel from what i hear most of these girls are pretty strange themselves, i heard that one of them used to be a servant and another of them lived in the woods for the first 16 years of her life!" Eric said trying to sooth her fears.
"Yes but none of them used to have tails!" all Ariel wanted was to be excepted as a normal human girl, she hoped that the other princesses would not reject her as some of the girls in the village had.
Eric left to make sure that all the rooms where ready for the visitors.
When she first learned that they would be having guests Ariel was excited to meet strangers and hear about the far away places where they lived but that excitement had soon turned into dread for she feared that they would not like her.
Maybe she should try to get some advice from one of the maids, she had recently learned that her friend scuttle did not know as much about the human world as he claimed.
She walked down the halls and soon found one of the maids sweeping the floors, they soon became engrossed in an indef conversation about how to act in front of royalty.
