Rumples POV
I sit, my chin in my hands, my knee sub-consciously shaking.
She's been in there for an hour.
I've been here for an hour.
I've stood up a few times to watch frustratedly through the window, but it's to painful seeing her led there, doctors and nurses bustling around her, so I either pace back and forth or sit down.
"Calm down Gold," Emma said, slouched beside me.
She was sipping a coffee Hook had gotten her from the machine.
Now, the problem with Snow Queen.
I know what she's up to.
Know what she's going to do.
She's given me a free pass out of this place.
And I'm taking my wife with me.
I haven't told Belle because she will want to do the right thing and stay, fight this like everyone else. But if we did that, we would most surely die.
The Snow Queen has her mind set on what she wants, and nothing - no-one I should say, will get in her way.
I need to get Belle and the little one out of here, by tomorrow night, otherwise we are done for.
But how am I going to get her to leave with me... That's the only problem.
Whatever happens I'm leaving - and not leaving her behind.
If I have to use magic, take her by force, whatever, she is coming. My darling Belle cannot be murdered here. But, if she is the doting wife I know she is, she will come with me. Even if she doesn't know the real reason she's coming for is....
I stand up again.
"How long is this going to take..." I sighed, thinking out loud.
"I'm sure they're doing their best," Emma replied.
"I wonder where Hook is..." She looked over down the corridor.
"He told me he was getting some of the others to help guard the hospital, we don't want any unexpected arrivals..." I said with gritted teeth.
"I might go find him..." She murmured.
I nodded and stared into the window.
I love you Belle.
Come on.
Fight through this, I know you can do it...
Suddenly, footsteps clicked slowly down the corridor.
"Don't come any closer!" I heard Emma shout.
I span around to see Emma on her feet, watching the approaching Snow Queen.
"I'll do as I wish," she curled her fingers and Emma was suddenly covered in a thick layer of frost.
"Why didn't you tell me you were expecting dear?" She smiled.
"Sorry dearie, must've, slipped my mind," I held my hands behind my back.
She tilted her head too one side, her facial features calm, her eyes piercing.
"I didn't realise you had a wife," she fluttered her eyelids.
"Mhh...." I raised my eyebrows.
I stepped to the side, blocking her view as she peered into the window.
She sighed and took a step toward me.
"Hmm.... The dark one.... Having a child..." She put her hand over her mouth and snorted, looking down.
"I'm sorry... I just thought I'd never hear anyone say that, let alone me," she laughed delicately.
"Are you done?" I growled.
"Of, far from it actually," she smiled, brushing her dress.
"I need you to do something for me," she fluttered her eyelids again.
"And why would I do that, hm?" I raised my chin.
She smiled and looked to the floor again.
"Well, I'm sure when you leave you are planning on taking your family along with you," she pursed her lips.
I didn't reply and glared at her.
"So, I won't stop you," she held up her hands.
"What's the catch," I held my ground.
"Well, I'll do you a deal, as your are so fond of them, you - kill - Hook," she smiled, her eyes wide.
"You want Hook dead? Am I allowed to ask why?" I asked.
"He's getting in the way of my perfect plan... Yes I know everyone's going to die in the end, from my curse, but I'm afraid I won't be able to cast it with him constantly around Emma," she sighed softly.
"Yes, it seems he's become a somewhat cheerleader for her, since our return from Neverland," I nodded.
This won't be a problem.
"So you'll do it then?" She smiled.
"Anything for you, dearie," I smiled, my eyes cold.
"Your actions are much appreciated, your reward is your life, along with Belles and your child, " she smiled.
I looked over at Emma.
"Has she...?"
Don't tell me she's heard any of this.
"Oh of course not, I'm not that stupid Rumplestiltksin," she laughed.
"Goodbye..." She unfroze Emma and disappeared in flurry of snow.
Before Emma could say anything, I waved my hand quickly in front of her face.
I made her forget the last 5 minutes, forget that the Snow Queen came.
"Woah," she took a step back.
"Alright dearie?" I frowned at her.
"Yeh, just uh... Wow that felt weird.... Man I need more coffee, you want some?" She started making her way down the corridor.
"If you wouldn't mind," I replied.
I turned back to the window.
This is working out Belle.
We're going to leave this place and never look back.
Find ourselves a new home, a new life.
Away from here.
Just us.
My happy ending is so close I can almost see it.
Our happy ending.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
