Belles POV
I woke up to the smell of bacon gently sizzling from downstairs.
I stretched my arm out to find the other side of the bed empty.
Dragging myself out of bed, I slip on Rumples giant dressing gown and half sleep walk down the stairs.
Rumple tried his best to comfort me but, all night, even with the curtains drawn, I could feel eyes on me. I kept seeing the face I saw at the bottom of the garden. Every time I did get to sleep, his face appeared out from the darkness. I was tossing and turning all night. Rumple did notice when he woke up in the early hours of the morning. He didn't say anything he just wrapped his strong arms around me.
Rubbing my tired eyes i wander into the kitchen and dump myself onto one of the kitchen chairs.
"Good morning my love," Rumple said, turning his head toward me, a saucepan of sizzling bacon in one hand, a spatula in the other.
"Mmh...morning..." I gave a tired smile and stifle a yawn.
He knows why i couldn't sleep so he doesn't ask.
"Full English?" He smiled.
"Sounds perfect," I smile back.
"And I thought," he said, placing everything down onto the stove and walking over,
"We could start planning for the wedding," he said, leaning on the counter toward me.
He gestured over to the table with his eyes and I span the chair around to look.
On the table was a jug of what looked like freshly squeezed orange juice and a tun of wedding magazines. Magazines for dresses, suits, flowers, venues, caterers, everything you could possibly need for a wedding.
"Wow," I say walking over to it.
"You've obviously been collecting them," I laugh, picking a bridal one up.
"Aha....no...." He blushed, walking over with two plates of food.
He had. So he's wanted this for a while then? Adorable.
Rumple set the food down and sat down at the head of the table and I sat next to him, slightly to his left.
"Right, where to start..." He breathed, looking worn out already.
Hmm...
I thrust a magazine at him and picked up one for me.
"Here - I'll look for a dress and you look for a handsome suit," I smile.
He laughed and took it from me, then kissed me quickly on the lips.
"Better get started, there's so much to do," he raced his hand through his hair.
"I'm sure we'll manage," I squeeze his hand before opening my magazine.
For a while we sit, neither of us talking, engrossed in the pictures, eating our breakfast.
All these dresses are beautiful, but theres only one problem.
They are all so expensive... Surely we can't afford them...
Maybe I should be practical and go for something a little less extravagant, well to be honest we don't need all the fancy things, all I need is him there and that's it. That's all I want.
"Belle?"
His voice broke me from my thoughts.
"Mh?" I lift my head up.
He looked a bit anxious.
"Do you...do you think this....this one would?..." He was blushing slightly.
He wants my approval.
"Just uh....have a look at this one..." He said, handing me his magazine.
It's very handsome indeed. A three piece suit, a dark blazer, with a light purple tie and waistcoat which had cream lines creating a subtle pattern.
"Do you think it would suit me?" He said, doubting his looks.
"Oh Rumple it's gorgeous, you would look great in it!" I look up at him.
His cheeks flushed redder and he beamed.
"You are too lovely," he reached a hand to my face, stroking my cheek with his knuckle.
"I know, I know..." I laugh.
I ripped the page out and put it aside.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"Well, that's in the yes pile," I answer.
"Yes, pile?" He looked confused.
"Rumple! It's the first one you've seen! You have to keep looking," I laugh at him.
He sighed and turned the page.
"This is going to be a long day..." He sighed.
"Yup! But it was your idea!" I say, pecking him on the cheek.
He chuckled.
It was!
