Gold had left to pick up Abi for it was about the time she was getting off, he had a rose in the car to give to her, he could not say Abi did not feel him with joy to have her close, to have her as his wife he was a lucky man & he wanted to each day show Abi that he loved her that, he did not regret marring her & he always enjoyed there time together, he just enjoyed showing her in anyway he could think of that he loved her & always would.
Once at the school, he parked, getting out of the car he waited for Abi, he did not see her yet, though he could be early or she might be running late, who knows, a teacher or that might of needed to speak with her.

Abi did not know what was up today. All day long people had been giving her strange pitying looks. Yes she had gotten those looks before with her being six months pregnant and having difficulty doing somethings... but this was different. They looked away when she glanced their way. The conversations stopped when she approached. It was unnerving.
Abi's day had been ruined because of it. It had put her in a sad mood. Her baby hormones did not help her emotions. BY the time class was over, she could not wait to leave but a parent of one of her students had arrived to talk with her making Abi late to get out of the building.
Once outside she spotted her husband and smiled softly as she moved down the stairs and across the grass towards him. Abi normally waited till they were in the car to kiss him but this time, because of her change of moods, she stepped up in front of him, put one arm around his waist and just let her head fall to his shoulder with a sigh.

Gold saw Abi, he smiled to her before moving to get the car door for her, though at her actions, he lightly moved his free hand that was not holding his can around her waist to stroke her back as he spoke "What is wrong?" Of course the a side of him got angry that someone had harmed her some how & he would be sure to see that they payed in so many ways. He for now held her as he waited for her to answer, not sure if she would, but hopping she would so he could help the best that he could or how ever he could.

She felt him rub her back soothingly and Abi took a deep breath. "What is wrong?" He asked her and Abi was silent for a long moment before she spoke. "People are being weird." She mumbled. "They are giving me strange looks and talking about me I think. I don't know why... I don't like it." Abi felt like she was being watched. She stiffened slightly and then turned her face into his throat and kissed the side of it before straightening up and climbing into the car. Once he climbed in as well, Abi looked over at him. "Do you want to go out tonight?" She asked him softly.

Gold felt Abi move, at her words he wished to help her he just did not know how with out her giving him names, once she was in the car & they where driving off, he heard her words before he spoke "If you would like to we can, but if you do not then we can stay home" He looked at Abi a moment before turning back to the road, to drive home. He waited for her answer, but he would not force her to go out ether, if she was not in the mood.

"Lets go out." Abi replied. She did not want to go home and sit there thinking about the people at work. It would be a long night if that happened. "Maybe dinner at the french restaurant I saw the other day?" Abi directed her husband as he drove and it was of course not long before they arrived. Storybrooke was not very big.
The restaurant was new and popular. When they pulled into the parking lot, Abi slipped out of the car and waited on the side walk for Gold. When he joined her, they entered and Being Mr and Mrs Gold, were seated right away. Everything was lovely inside But Abi did notice people looking at them. One in particular. A woman Abi knew she had seen somewhere. The woman was obviously pregnant and was giving Abi a nasty look that made her look away quickly.

Gold seat across form Abi, though he saw a few looking at them more then they need, many did well to look else where when he meet there eyes, he missed the look the pregnant woman gave Abi, though he did see her before he looked at Abi "Are you alight?" I was just Abi appeared to be upset with those that where looking at them, but he spoke on hopping people would get a life & go back to it, with out them being the topic or what ever. "What would you care to drink & eat or have you decided?"

"Are you alight?" Gold asked her and Abi met his eyes. No she wasn't but she nodded anyway. She picked up her menu as he asked what she wanted. Abi opened her mouth to say that she would just have water to drink due to the baby when they were interrupted. The pregnant woman had stood and come to stand beside their table. Abi looked up at her now.
The woman was watching Gold however she seemed to be avoiding Abi gaze. "You have a lot of nerve bringing her here." The woman said and now she glanced coldly at Abi. "Your pregnant wife when I am here carrying your child too! Which of your children do you think is going to be born first?" And then then woman reached out and slapped Gold across the face before turning and storming out amongst whispers and glances Abi and Gold's way. Abi's mouth had fallen open slightly as she now stared in shock at her husband

Gold decided to not fight with Abi, it was not worth it & he also figured it was also do to her shift in moods, something was ready to deal with. How ever he was not ready to come, as the pregnant woman approached Gold could not say he was pleased, he really hated having people around him when he was wanting to give his wife a night out, he felt the woman's eyes on him & it annoyed him even more so he looked up at her "Do you need something?"
He growled of course he heard her words that fallowed & he looked at heard "Excuse me?" Golds voice was low, but it was a threat to what the woman just said, Gold was angry he felt his temper flex, though it was her next that made him look at her like she was some two headed beast "What the hell are you talking about?"
Of course he did not get to say more on the matter as the woman slapped him, he felt the sting & he had been close to going after the woman for an answer, how ever did not stop him from speaking "Get the hell back here & tell me what the hell you are talking about"
Of course the woman appeared to be not listening & it only came after he said it that he remembered where he was & more so that Abi was a cross from him, he was shocked he knew it was a lie, but he could not prove it not yet any way & by the time he did his life could really mean nothing again.
He looked at Abi before he spoke "Abigail, I do not know what that woman was talking about, there was no truth in it" Of course he spoke the truth, but Abi was in such a state of mind he was not sure how she would reacted & he feared it, because he knew that a lie could cost him every thing he carried for in this room.

When the woman had slapped him, Abi had felt herself flinch but that was the last physical movement she made up until now. She had not even watched the woman leave. "Abigail, I do not know what that woman was talking about, there was no truth in it" Gold told her. Abi blinked and then she closed her mouth and her eyes turned dark as the emotions hit her.
"No?" She asked now. "There is baby in her. She looks about as big as me... it's not yours?" Her voice was low as to not draw even more attention to them but it was deadly cold. Aib shook her head now and then stood.
She teetered a little bit having stood too fast. The blood drained from her head and she felt lightheaded for a moment. A waiter who had been standing near by watching everything now stepped forward and took her by the elbow to steady the pregnant and royally peeved woman. Abi looked at the waiter after she had regained her balance and gave a court nod before she left the restaurant without a glance back at Gold.
Abi left and walked past the car. She kept her eyes down towards the ground trying very hard not to cry. Everyone knew about this... that's what people were talking about at school... Everyone knew but her... She turned the corner heading for the woods and kept walking till she came to the stone bridge.
Abi dropped to her knees now at the waters edge and the tears came. She screamed as loud as she could in anger and birds from the trees around her took of in fright. She was scorned and didn't know what to do.

Gold watched Abi, at her words he felt like she ripped out his heart, not that it was her fault, but it did not help the pain he felt, he saw Abi get up as she wobbled a bit, he rose form his seat, but he saw a waiter move to help Abi, though he still felt his anger flicker at the mans action, but he was not sure if Abi would allow him to help her at the moment.
As Abi left he moved to fallow her though, she moved faster then himself, he caught up to her at the stone bridge, he heard her scream though he approached her closely as he approached he did not fear her, of course his fear of losing her was great, he would do all he could to keep there family together, but he did not know what Abi would want. "Abigail..." He was not sure what to say or if she would so much as speak with him right now "Please.... speak with me"

"Abigail..." Abi heard him say. She had not even been aware that he was following her. Abi looked down at the water now and was silent except for the sobs that ripped through her. She was shaking all over and could feel the baby moving inside of her most likely not understanding her emotions. "Please.... speak with me" He pleaded. Abi shook her head.
There were so many thoughts going through her mind right now. That he was telling the truth. That the woman was. That Abi wanted a divorce. That she loved this man. And the baby... of course the baby. "Did you cheat on me?" Abi asked softly now not looking at him. "Is that your baby?" Before he could answer Abi got to her feet and turned to look at him. At this man. Her husband. The father of her unborn child. "Why would she lie? Make a big spectacle?" Abi wanted to believe him but she was so scared right now.

Gold heard her words, her pain cut him like a knife though he did not get the chance to make move to comfort her as she cried & with her words, he listened at her first he was ready to speak when he saw her turn & face him to speak more. "I did not cheat on you & no that is not my child"
He watched her "I can think of many reason why one would lie, of course most the reason move around it is a move to harm me, in some way & what better then to drive away the one thing I love, can you not think of a worse way to wound a person, for such a wound is not something that heals so simple or ever"
He stopped a moment before going on "As for a spectacle, I suppose it would run along the same lines as I have said, people will talk & word will spread, people care little if things are true or not when it is such gossip & when it deals with me, well I cannot say I win any favor in them, though this is done just as much to hurt you as me, I will find who started this who, put the woman up to it even when I have my ideas on that"

"I did not cheat on you & no that is not my child" He told her and Abi held his gaze. She was silent however. She would let him speak. "I can think of many reason why one would lie," He told her and Abi knew what he was going to say. He was hated here. "of course most the reason move around it is a move to harm me, in some way & what better then to drive away the one thing I love, can you not think of a worse way to wound a person, for such a wound is not something that heals so simple or ever"
Abi looked down now. What he was saying was all true. But still she wondered and her heart ached. The tears were still coming and Abi could not stop them. She must have looked a mess.Her clothes were dirty from the mud on the ground. Her face was tear soaked and blotchy. Her stomach stuck out a mile. She was unattractive. This made Abi cry even harder.
He was still talking. Promising to find the person responsible for this. Abi closed her eyes. She did not doubt him on that. He had the means to get whatever he wanted. He always got what he wanted. She sighed and wiped at her face trying to calm down. "I want to go home." Abi said now in a low voice. She started forward passing him. If he tried to touch her right now, she would not stop him but she did not want to be the one to touch him.

Gold had watched Abi, he did not know what he would do if she left he feared losing her more that anything else, at leat that he had at the moment. He heard her words & nodded "Of course" As she moved to pass him he lightly touched her, at one point thinking she would hit him & hopping she would allow him to give her some comfort before they headed home of some kind, he really did not want her to feel alone or that he would be so foolish, he lost her once he was not about to do it again if he could stop it.
