Rumples POV
"Belle..."
I roll over onto my side and stroke her face.
"Mhhuhm..." She mumbles nestling herself into me, clinging to sleep.
"We need to get up darling, I have to go to the shop..." I sigh, wishing I could stay with her.
"Mhhn...no..." she mumbles, grabbing my shirt pulling me closer, her eyes still closed.
I laugh and plant a kiss on her head.
"Come on darling, besides, I have a surprise for you," I squeeze her.
She groaned and opened her eyes.
"Does that involve getting up?" She smiles sleepily.
"It might help..." I chuckle flicking her nose before i sit up.
"Usually it's me dragging you out of bed, you must be really excited about something..." she yawned.
Indeed I am.
I just need today to go fast so I can surprise her later.
A grin spreads across my face as I think of what I've planned.
She notices and frowns, but still smiles.
"What?" She rests her head on my stomach, looking up at me.
"Nothing nothing... You'll find out soon enough..." I tease.
"Find out what?"
"I can't tell you," I wink.
"Come on!"
"No,"
"pleaaase!"
"Uh-uh,"
"Rumple!"
"Belle!" I mimic her whine.
She stopped and frowned at me, pretending to be grumpy.
Suddenly, a flash of white covers my vision.
"I'll smother you until you tell me!" Belles voice came from above the pillow on my face.
I laugh and try and get it off but I was rather restrained as she was sat on my stomach now, pressing the pillow down with her hands.
I could use magic to fling her off, but I love our 'play fights'.
I play a long and pretend to struggle, but she is stronger than she looks...
"Belle you know I can't breathe!" I laugh.
She lifts up the pillow and smirks.
"You know I hate surprises,"
And with that, she gives me a quick peck on the sheet and jumps off me into the bathroom.
I need to get ready as well, so much to do for tonight.
It has to be perfect for my perfect Belle.
