Rumpelstiltskin's Heir

Love

PAST:

I walked quietly, thinking of something to say. Obviously this place has changed Auxi-and I want to know how. I mean I know he didn't want me to come-and thought it was best for me to forget him..but he has to understand that he means so much for me that I would risk my life for him right? I opened my mouth to say something but my voice was lost as I saw the object only a foot away.

"Auxi...is that a car?"

"Yep."

"But we're in Limbo. How is there a car here?!"

"Keep your voice down will you? Limbo is home of the trapped souls and dreams. Someone who got trapped here dreamed of having a car. This is why it's dangerous here, their dreams are left in this area. It's good to hide-and since they abandoned their dreams well they don't come. But some of the dreams may be deadly-and if you touch any dream the souls can sense it and will come."

"Wow. I see why you didn't want to take this path."

"Yeah, but we have no choice, so stay quite and do not touch anything. Got it?"

"Yes."

"Good."

PRESENT:

I opened my eyes and looked around...wait...why am I in my room? I thought the curse was taking us back.....

I sat up trying to clear my mind-when I realized someone in my bed...I closed my eyes. Please Please Please tell me I didn't sleep with someone... I felt my shirt with my fingers. Ok so I'm not naked. So still a virgin. I opened my eyes and slowly turned to the body next to me. His face was covered with a pillow, and the covers were on the side. His shirt was slightly lifted and I could see his abs. I felt my cheeks warm up. I stripped my eyes from his abs and carefully took the pillow.

PAST:

I can't handle this bloody silence.

"Auxi why are you angry at me?"

"Are we really doing this right now? Of all time?"

"Yes right now. Auxi you were so nice-and now you're-"

"Showing my true colors?"

"No. Don't you dare say that Auxi. I knew you better than anyone!"

"Keep your voice down. And you know nothing about me."

"N-nothing? Auxi I was the only maid you talked to. I know you love reading, your favorite color is grey-not the dull version but the one in the sunrise because you like to think it means something new and wonderful can come today. You're favorite places are the beaches and mountains-you miss your home under that ocean more than you can bare, you love music and like to wear un-matching socks, you're a great healer and you've helped tons of people."

Auxi scoffed "Helped who?"

"For one; Balyn, he told me of the day you found him and saved him."

"Oh that. Yes well he would think I saved him."

"What do you mean?"

"It was a job, Aldara. I got paid to do it by some girl that was in-love with him and made a deal with Gothel."

PRESENT:

"Seb?" I asked shocked

He stirred in his sleep and mumbled something incoherent.

I poked him.

He's..real.

"S-seb. Seb, wake up." I gently shook him.

He yawned, stretched his arms before closing his eyes again mumbling "5 more minutes."

"Sebastian wake up!" I yelled a little more out of fear then of irritation (he's to cute when he's sleeping to get angry at him)

"Whaaaat I wanna sweep please." he mumbled his eyes still closed

"Auxi just open your eyes for me."

His eyes opened and landed n me "You look nice can I sleep now?" he closed his eyes again.

Suddenly he sat up. "Where am I?!"

PAST:

"Fine-so it was a job. You still saved him-and if he's not an example than I am. You have no idea how many times you've saved me."

"Aldara I'm not who you think I am."

"Than help me understand. Help me know you."

"It's not that simple."

"Because you aren't making it simple."

"Just drop it."

Frustrated I looked around and realized there were many more dreams.  

One caught my attention. It was a guy lifting a girl before kissing her. Love. Someone here had dreamed of love. I looked away, repulsed. Love is the most deadliest disease.

PRESENT:

Seb stared at me-his eyes wide open.

"T-this isn't real! I'm dead-you're alive! W-what's going on?!"

"I don't know! I though you-you were fake but you're here! I can touch you!" I reach over to touch his face but he jumps back and falls off the bed.

I wince and run over to him "A-are you alright?"

He rubbed his head "Yeah...I think so."

I stare at him for a while, smiling softly "So...you're alive..."

"I...think so?"

Just then the door burst open-William is holding a bat and Eddy has a broom.

I giggle "You two look ridiculous right now. "

"I couldn't find my sword ok?" William grumbled 

"Mom are you ok, we heard screaming" said Eddy as he held the broom higher-as if this made it more menacing 

I smile at my little boy "It's fine Edd-I'm fine" I look down at Seb who is still staring at me with disbelief "Although I think Auxi hit his head." 

William turned to Auxi, his eyes widened, and the bat slipped out of his hands.

"Auxiliator? You're alive?"

"I-I think so..." He slowly stood up, touching his face, hair, and chest as if expecting them to disappear any minute. "I think-I am alive."

He walked over to me cupping, my cheek with his hand, staring intently into my eyes.

"Seb." I smiled I reached to cup his cheek with my hand.

"I'm with you" he mumbled 

"Don't ever leave me again" I pleaded

"Never"

He pulled me to him and our lips met. The world dissolved around us leaving only us together. At that moment nothing mattered: how he was alive, why we were still in Storybrooke, my loss of memory-Nothing. He was finally with me.
