“I…” he shook his head. “I don't know. It just stunned me. That's all.”

Ariel squeezed his hand.

“So, let's go out,” she said. “Paint the town red. Just don't get so plastered that you forget how to magic us back. We don't have to think about any of this now.”

“That's your solution to everything,” he said, although he looked slightly less pale. “You are serious, though? About the divorce?”

Alexander came from a place where there was no divorce, not even suggestion of such a thing. Dragons married for life, even if they didn't mate for life. He couldn't even fathom the very idea of having a second or third wife. He had known what it meant when he married her, and while their marriage was open, he had no intention of signing papers, even if it was just on Earth.

“I am,” she said. “And it's not the first time we've talked about it. Don't act so surprised.”

“We can talk about it,” he said, at last. “But I don't–”

“I know,” Ariel said. “We come from very different worlds. I've long since accepted this.”

“Well, at least there's that,” he loved being on Earth. The busy streets, especially in the dark, were memorizing. The cars whizzed by, people spoke on their phones, and the world seemed simpler and easier. “We can go out for a few drinks if you want. We should celebrate your success, in any case. You stole the show.”

“I was in the chorus!” she protested. “That's the problem with musical theater. It doesn't matter if you were a prima donna in the ballet company; you are in the chorus of the theater unless you can dance and act.”

“You can't dance ballet forever,” he said, and she shrugged.

“I know,” she replied. “And I know I'm already older than most of the dancers out there. Musical theater is a last-ditch effort. Maybe I should learn to act; it can't be that hard.”

“I could waive my hand,” he said, indicating his magic. “One director will lead to another, and they will all be convinced you're a rising star in that regard.”

“No,” she said. “I was a prima ballerina on my own, and if this is my path, I'll figure it out.”

“My independent queen,” he said, kissing the top of her head. “So many people would take that offer and never look back.”

“So many of them are weak,” Ariel answered. “Are you actually hungry?”

“No,” he said, as he scoured the landscape.

“Right, it's not Wednesday, is it?” she said it off hand, but Alexander caught it anyway, squeezing her hand. It was the other thing he hid – his issues with food. He was almost afraid of his dragon form and of the impulses that came with it. Dragons ate other creatures relentlessly, gouging sometimes. Cole was particularly bad for it, as he was never satisfied. But Alexander liked to be in control of everything: his words, his clothes, his situation, and his food. He ate once a week on Wednesdays. Wednesdays were the days Ariel
