"Alas Adam no Eric is not here with me. Belle seemed quite distressed you were late and he wanted to cheer her up." Ariel only hoped Eric wasn't 'rescuing' Belle from her sadness. God only knew what the two of them were doing in the wine cellar.<br/><br/>"I would be an honor Prince Adam if you would help me greet guests. I have been preparing hard all day and would appreciate the help. Thank you."<br/><br/>Ariel smiled and her eyes sparkled at him. Belle was a lucky princess indeed. Adam was stunning, so handsome and built. Thoughts crossed her mind about Adam 'rescuing' her. "Yes it has been a long time, did I mention how handsome you look this evening? It's too bad Belle is not around to see you. Such a shame." Ariel was being coy, but thruth was, she wouldn't mind slipping away with Adam if she could. Maybe after all the guests arrive, Sne might have that chance to see just what a beast he could be.
