His True Love

~2 Days Later, Docking & Going Home, Try Again, Ghosts, Heart Break, Staying~

~Alisa's POV~

When I woke up today we were a hundred yards away from the docks, I got out of bed pulling on the green and brown dress that I bought along with my new brown high heeled boots. I packed the rest of my things before walking out of my courters and onto the deck, I saw everyone lined up and I smiled. I gave Smee a hug before finally coming to Killian, I gave him a hug before pulling away and kissing his cheek, he smiled at me.

"You always have a place on my ship, love, first mate will be waiting for you, we don't leave for another three days if the crocodile makes you change your mind."

I laughed, shaking my head.

"Thank Killian, for everything."

"Always love."

I smiled before walking off the ship and starting my short walk home, hoping Rumple hasn't completely moved on from me.

~Rumple's POV~

It's been two days since the incident with Belle and since then she's steered clear of me and has just done her job.

"Excuse me Rumpelstiltskin?"

"Yes?"

"I wish to apologize for my behavior that other day, I was wrong and out of line and I apologize."

I sighed before standing up and walking towards her, I stopped in front of her holding up the lipstick that was in her pocket, she gave me a confused look, and I shook my head, as she looked at me.

"This is a product of the Evil Queen Regina, if you want to kiss the beast it's best if you do it without the magic. I value the life I live now, I value my magic, my power, it's the only thing that's kept me going over the years. Watch yourself Princess or next time things won't end with you in a dungeon, but with you in the ground."

"I understand, and what if I wanted to kiss you again."

"I won't kiss you back, my heart belongs to another Princess, and it always will."

She nodded her head leaning up and connecting her lips to mine, my eyes closed so I could picture Alisa. For a moment the world around me disappeared as I was with her once again, and that's all I've ever wanted. Belle and I were pulled away by the door opening and Alisa standing there, for a moment I thought that I was looking at a ghost. She dropped her bag and ran off, I pushed Belle away and ran after her, following her into the garden where she tripped over one of the tree roots. I went over trying to help her only to have her stand on her own and push me away.

"Alisa, I thought you were dead."

"Yeah well I'm obviously not."

She started to walk away but I grabbed her arm pulling her back and into my chest letting my lips crash to hers, I could tell that she was fighting it. I just pulled her tightening to my chest, she soon gave in, her arms wrapped around my neck tangling in my peppered hair. When we pulled away she leaned her forehead against mine as tears came to her eyes, I looked into them before pulling away.

"I love you, not her, she and I have kissed twice and the first time she was trying to take my powers."

She looked at me like I was crazy.

"And you let her stay?"

I shrugged.

"I needed a new maid, especially since the one that I had I fell in love with."

"I missed you."

I smiled before getting a confused look on my face.

"I missed you, and don't get me wrong I'm glad you're back, but how did you get out?"
