Real quick A/N one huge shout out to my bestie SuperMinds-fan she is a huge fan of this book and that's the reason I updated it so much second this chapter is split into two because I keep my chapter under 1,500 words. So here is part 2 and the next chapter is going to be pretty much all enchanted Forest.

"Yeah, that's him, all right." David said as Constance kept calling her boyfriend. "Come on Jefferson answer the phone." Constance said to her self. David walked back to the two. "Do you remember turning a butcher into a pig?" David asked Rumplestlin. Constance turned her head and saw Jefferson out of the corner of her eye. "Jefferson." Constance shouted. Just a day prior Jefferson had been reunited with his daughter Grace but Constance wanted her boyfriend.

Jefferson saw his girlfriend and ran over to her. "Hey my love." Jefferson said. "My mother is missing again." Constance said. "I'm sorry." Jefferson said. "Okay, so what's next?" Rumplestlin asked. " Granny's. We can see who else you terrorized there." David said. Constance giggled. "Can or do you want to come or you bussy?" Constance asked Jefferson. "No I can come." He said.

"Look, uh, can I ask you a question about you and Mary Margaret? H- how- how does that work?" Rumplestlin asked. "Is my father asking for dating advice." Constance asked. "Are you asking dating advice?" David asked. David and Constance looked at each other confused and Jefferson also had a look of confusion on his face as well. "Of course not, no." Rumplestlin said. "Honesty. That's how we did it. Hard work and being honest with one another." David said.

"Well, I don't lie." Rumplestlin said. "You lies this morning." Constance said. But everyone ignored her. "There's a difference between literal truth and honesty of the heart. Nothing taught me that more than this curse." David said. "Uhm Constance can we talk real quick?" Jefferson asked.

"Yeah of course we can my hatter." Constance said. "Look Graces Storybrooke parents are ok with me taking her it's just she is not aloud to live with me." Jefferson said. "That's crazy your her father." Constance said. "I know." Jefferson said. "We can figure something out." Constance said.

They walked into Granny's. "Belle, huh? Sorry. Doesn't ring a bell." Ruby said as Constance and Jefferson walked in. "Ruby, listen to me. If you've come across her, you gotta tell me. I'll make sure nothing bad happens." David said. "Yeah, but what about him?" Ruby said pointing to Rumplestlin. "Ruby Belle is my mom and well he is my dad." Constance said. "I've got him. Trust me." David said.

"She was in earlier with Constance She was looking for a job. I pointed her in the direction of the library." Ruby said. "When do you think she went there?" Rumplestlin asked. "Right after we started this hunt." Constance mumbled. "Me you date night tomorrow." Jefferson told the women he loves to help ease her mind. "Okay but only if I find my mother." Constance said.

"Don't know. But when you find her, give her this. She left it in her booth." Ruby said giving her Belles jacket. "No, that's mine. She didn't have anything for the cold." Rumplestlin said. "You sure you'll watch out for her?" Ruby asked David and Constance. Constance shook her head in a yes way. "Yes. Why?" David asked. "I think- I think I-can find her. Lately, since things changed, I've been, uh, a little more sensitive to odors." Ruby said.

"What, you can smell her?" Rumplestlin asked. "I guess it's 'cause of the wolf thing." Ruby said.

Constance was about sixteen in the woods running. When she was met by two people one in a white cloke and the other one in red. "Hi." The one with the white cloke said. "I'm Mary and this is my friend Red." She said. "Hi I'm Constance." She said. "Nice to met you." Constance said. "You too." Mary said. "May I ask why are you running." Constance asked. "My friend she is being ran out of her village." Mary said. "Oh I'm sorry." Constance said. "Snow you stay here I will leave because I don't want to hurt you too." Red said.

As red ran off. "Mary was dose Red where a red cloke. "Red is part wolf Constance that's why." Mary said.

The four of them followed behind Red who was able to smell Belle. They stopped In front of a shop. "What's wrong?" David asked Ruby as she stopped. "I had her, but I- I lost her trail." Ruby said. The let out a sneeze. "Oh. It must be the flowers. I- I can't track her anymore. I'm sorry." Ruby said.

"Don't be. This is her father's shop." Rumplestlin said. They all entered the shop but Constance latched on to Jefferson and kissed him. "You again. Out. This is a private establishment. You're not welcome." Moe French the shop owner said. "Where's Belle?" Rumplestlin asked. "I won't let anything happen to her, Moe." David said. "We're just worried." Ruby said.

"Why dose that girl hugging and loving on the portal jumper look like my daughter have you changed her form or something." Moe shouted at Rumplestlin. "No she is your granddaughter." David said. "No my Belle would never be so stupid." Moe said. "I just want my mother back." Constance said with teas forming in her eyes. "Don't be. She's safe. So you can stop looking." Moe said.

"Look, if I could just have the chance to talk to her." Rumplestlin said. "You will destroy Belle like you destroy everything else. Well, I won't let that happen." Moe said. "What have you done with her?" Constance asked un hugging Jefferson. "There's only one way to get her away from you two." Moe said. "What have you done with her?" Rumplestlin asked. "I have to make her forget about you, no matter the cost. Even if it means she forgets me, too." Moe said.

"You monster." Constance cried. "Jefferson her he rout of here. David said. "Come on love bug." Jefferson said. Jefferson got Constance out of the shop and they went back to Granny's "one ice cream Sunday's two spoons." Jefferson said. "Granny shook her in an a okay way and made it. "Thank you granny." Constance said. "Your welcome." Granny said. The two ate ice cream and waited.

"Mom." Constance shouted as she came into the door. "Constance. Are you ok." Belle asked. "Yes I just thought I lost you that's all." Constance said. "Oh Connie bear." Belle said hugging her daughter. They let go of each other and belle sat down at the bar with the two of them. "Mom this is Jefferson and Jefferson this is my mom Belle." Constance said. "It's nice to met you I have heard so much about you." Jefferson said. "You too and yet Constance says nothing about you." Belle said.

"Hum ask dad about that." Constance said.
