rumplestiltskin-making love with the devil hurts

Emma Swan

She had been in town two days this Emma Swan and things were starting to change.
Regina was a lot more violent almost like a evil queen from a fairy tale.
Henry was still going on about that damned book Mary-margaret had given him weeks ago.
How we were all fairy tale characters and this was a curse so we couldn't remember anything.

It was a usual day in my shop, not many people came in as they were scared of me.
I decided to close up early and collect people's rent.
I went to Granny's dinner. As I walked in it went completely silent I was used to it.
5 years people have been scared of me and I guess nothing was going to change over night.
People went back to eating their food and talking and I walked up to the counter.
Granny was just placing money in an envelope.

"There's $500 there Mr Gold." She said.
Granny and Mayor Regina Mills were the only two people who weren't really scared of me.

"Thank you dearie"i replied and walked out.
Just as I was walking down the steps Raelyn the woman in my shop was walking down the road she stopped when she saw me.

"Mr Gold I would just like to say thank you for the Angel it's wonderful and looks lovely on my fireplace" she had a small smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye.

"That's quite alright Raelyn, I'm glad it has found a home" I replied softly and sent her a smile back.

Part of me wanted to tell her what I saw when she kissed me but she would just think I'm crazy.

"Would you like to show me around town sometime. I'm still getting used to where places are and some people have said that you own most of the buildings so your good to ask about things" she spoke with a soft voice.

"It would be my pleasure, I can meet tomorrow here and I can show you around maybe have a picnic down by the harbour" I replied.

"Its a date!" She said with excitement and placed a kiss on my cheek and went on with her date.

It happened again, another vision almost like a memory.
This time it was the strange man and Raelyn sat on the floor by a crackling fire, they're  legs outstretched and her head laid on his chest.
Hang on a minute he looks like me, then he said something I don't know what it was but it sounded like my voice, could it be that I was this thing,man in my vision...
