Children of The Dark One: Rumbelle

Eyes

518 words

When Snow had gotten to their house she brought Davis and Emma. Emma had come to help, and David had come to stay with Rumple during the birth.

They had gotten Belle to the guest bedroom on the first floor so she could have her baby in a little more comfort.

Rumple and David waited it the hall for what seemed like days.

"It's a crazy feeling isn't it." David asked as Rumple paced back in forth by the door. They could her bell screaming.

"Yes, yes. I have had a child before. This isn't my first."

"It's hard every time though. I'm sure."

Rumple waved his hand dismissively. It was hard last time, but much worse this time. He was in love with Mila what she had his first born, but with Belle. This was true love. To hear his true love in so much pain. It was torture.

When it was finally over Emma came out and told Rumple he could come in.

When he walked in he was stunned. "She wasn't big enough to be carrying more than one child."

"Well, there is a lot of magic here." Snow answered him.

The woman left the room leaving Rumple alone with his wife and children.

He looked at his wife tears streamed down her face. In one arm she held a baby girl. She had light brown hair, the color his had been when he was young, and bright blue eyes. The other was a boy. He had dark brown hair and lizard like eyes.

"He has your eyes." She laughed bitterly.

"Have you picked names?" He asked

"How about Hazel and, hum."

Rumple walked over and picked up his son. Then he knew what to name him. "Blaze."

"Blaze? That's an odd name."

"Yes, but both of our names are as well. I just have a feeling."

"Ok Rumple. Hazel and Blaze it is!"

Hazel and Blaze where very healthy and outside of Blaze's eyes they where normal. At least so far.

That Sunday they decided to go to church with the babies. They had been going to the Christina Church every week since that first time Belle took Rumple.

When she showed up everyone wanted to see and hold the babies. Belle and Rumple had decided to not try and hide Blaze's eyes. Belle thought they where beautiful.

The first person to get to them was Granny. She looked over at the babies. Belle held Hazel and Rumple held Blaze.

Granny pulled the blanket from Blaze's face, "His, his eyes."

"He is my son." Rumple answered gritting his teeth.

________________________________
That day was not easy. Rumple was glad they introduced the children at church. He always felt better there.

Everyone was surprised by Blazes eyes. Actually the babies both had unique eyes. Hazel had blue eyes that where bright then any eye they had ever seen.

Henry on the other hand wasn't surprised at all. He adored his new aunt and uncle. There was only one thing that he didn't like. Something about Rumple and Belle was off. They didn't act like themselves.
