Rumples POV
"I wish I could stay with you all day..." I sighed, looking down at Belle, tucking her hair behind her ear, leaving my hand there.
"Me to, but we both have work to do," she sighed, a sympathetic smile across her face.
"If you have any...problems....any at all, you ring me, no matter what okay?" I pressed a phone into her hand.
"I have my phone?" She took it, confused.
"Yes, but this one has only my number programmed in, when I see this number ring on my phone, I'll know it's important and to get to wherever you are, straight away," I explained.
"Right..."
"By just clicking that button it will call me automatically, if you are in a situation where you need me quickly, just press that, just click that and I'll be there as soon as possible," I squeezed the phone in her hand.
"Okay," she smiled anxiously.
"Well, I have to go," she gulped, tucking the phone into her purse.
"Seriously Belle, call," I look her deep in the eyes.
"Yes, Rumple, calm down, I will...." She whispered, pulled away from me and looked to the floor and made her way to the library.
Damn. I know I'm being way over protective - but I can't have anything happen to her. I can't have anyone hurting her.
Before entering the library, she turned and gave me a weak smile.
I smiled back and waved a little, then she disappeared.
I'm smothering her. Things were going so well...
I can't help but be protective, she's my fiancé and I know for a fact that there is a lot of people who will use her to get to me, and lots of people who will take advantage of her being so beautiful and vulnerable.
I take a deep breath and make my way into the shop.
"Well that was a deep sigh," a voice laughed.
My head shot up from the floor to see Scar sitting up on the counter.
"And how did you get in?" I frown.
He shrugged and jumped off the counter.
"Are you here for business? If not then, feel free to get out?" I take off my coat and hang it beside the door.
"Hmm kind of," Scar said.
"Oh really? Fire away," I make my way toward him.
"Well, I was thinking....we got off to a really bad start....so, I was wondering if we could, go out for a couple of drinks later?" He smiled.
Sorry? After everything he's done to Belle? I don't think so!
"Why such a sudden change of heart?" I ask.
"I feel bad....I'm off my meds and....and I get it now that you're with Belle and I can't get in between you, and I'm sorry, I will apologies to Belle as well?" He sounds convincing.
"No, that won't be necessary," I don't want him anywhere near Belle.
"Okay, so a fresh start?"
"Fine," I sigh.
"Great, so drinks at The Rabbit Hole, say 7 ish?"
He didn't give me time to answer.
"Okay, seeya then!" He smiled, brushing up against me, patting my shoulder before bounding out of the room.
I stood there, I don't quite know what to do. How can I go for drinks with someone like that?! What will Belle think?
I look over out the window to the library.
I saw a glimpse of Belle placing a book on one of the shelves before moving out of sight.
Maybe if I do go out with him I could find out more information. Find out why he was so obsessed with Belle, what 'meds' he was talking about.
Belles POV
*bzz bzzz*
I walk over to my desk and pick up my phone. My normal one, not the one Rumple gave me... I get that he's protective of me but, now I feel like he's watching my every move. I love him so much, but I feel suffocated.
Oh what a surprise, the text is from Rumple.
Meet me at Granny's 7 sharp,
See you then
Rumple
Thats odd. He usually signs it with R? Never mind, he's probably busy.
Dinner at Granny's, sounds good.
I look out the window and sigh.
I can still feel eyes on me. His eyes on me.
Okay, maybe Rumple is right being so protective at the moment.
Scars POV
Swiping his phone was easy.
Sounds great, see you there
B x
Getting Belle to be at Granny's at 7, easier.
I must admit, I never thought Mr Gold would say yes to drinks, well he didn't really, but he will defiantly come. At 7. Well done Scar.
