A Ride & Much More (Abi)

[Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold]

Gold had made every thing was perfect, today of all days he wanted nothing to go wrong, he choose today for more then one reason, but mostly because it was the day they found each other once more. How he had wanted to ask such a question before, though he had to be sure that Abi was happy with her time with him for what he planned was nothing simple or something to take lightly.

He also took the time to plan, to insure Abi would not expected something & for him to keep it from her, had been a challenge. For he keep thinking, that by hiding it he was lying to her, he only hopped this now worked in his favor.

Of course he had other plans before his main plan so, that is where he would start, he had bought 2 black horses form the stables of course he had been keeping them there at the stables for the time being, after today it might change, but only time would tell.

The bread of horse he choose was a Frisian stallion & mare, pure bread, it was his gift to Abi no matter how this day turned out. The horse he choose to use for this event had been the stallion, more for a play on words form the park when they, went when she said hansom, both the horses where washed & groomed amazingly, before the stallion horse was tacked. He had the horses shooed to help for when ridding & also had planed to have the stallion dropped off close to the school, before having the mare dropped at home fort the time being, the one dropping off the mare would insure the horse was placed in a coral pen for the time & when things where decided would come back if need be. So by the time, Gold & Abi would make it home there would be two round pens set up for the horses, though the stallions was set more away to insure his safety.

Once the stallion was delivered close to the school, for there there it was mealy getting on the horse, though for him it had not been greatly hard, but then he had also scene to it the horse knew how to lay down & bow on common making it simpler. The horse knew other things as well, but for now that was the main thing, Abi would have to learn with time on everything the horse knew.

He had waited until school was out, when he knew most students would be gone & Abi normal would be come out of the school, to get a ride form him home, when it was time he headed for the school.

The gold on the bridle, only appeared to glimmer, in the sun & his cane was tucked into pouch of leather against the saddle much like that a riffle would of be placed in, during the old west.

[Belle/Lacey Gold]

Abi should have expected something out of the norm. As she left her classroom, the students had left for home but there was still staff here. The ones that she passed in the hallway seemed to be excited about something but when she passed, any conversations fell silent. Abi felt off about the atmosphere here. She held her things a little closer and then hurried from the school.

When she stepped out the front doors, She did not see him at first. Of course, she had not been expecting Mr Gold to come riding up on horse back. She had moved down to the sidewalk before she turned her head one way and then the other looking for Gold's car. When she spotted him, Abi froze and she stared.

She shook her head slowly. "What in the world..." She said softly. He looked like a prince coming for his princess. The horse was stunning. Its main and tail were beautiful. She fell in love with the animal instantly. As he got closer, Abi looked up at Mr. Gold. Abi gave a bright smile and then started towards him. "What is this? What are you doing?" She was unaware of anyone else watching from the school or surrounding buildings.

How Gold felt his heart skip a beat at Abi smile of course form her his heart skip a beat allot, but only for her in such a way. Gold drew the horse to a stop when close to Abi, at her words he smirked before leaning down a bit closer to the neck of the horse & Abi "This is me on a horse dearie" As if he really had to start such a fact "I have come to sweep my princess of her feet, in a way I heard she would enjoy. Though I can wait until after you fawn over the horse if I must" He signed before lightly rolling his eyes at the though, even though he was only joking.

[Belle/Lacey Gold]

Abi watched as he leaned down over the horses neck and closer to her. "This is me on a horse dearie" He told her and Abi grinned and rolled her eyes. "I have come to sweep my princess of her feet, in a way I heard she would enjoy. Though I can wait until after you fawn over the horse if I must" Gold told her and Abi giggled. her eyes moved over the horse once more and she reached out with one hand and scratched the horse between the ears.

It lowered it's gorgeous head so it could get more attention. She scratched for a few more moments and then moved to Gold's side. She ran a hand down his leg from the thigh to his ankle. "What happened to not wanting to make things obvious?" She teased. She wanted to kiss him and get up there with him but was not sure how to do either...

[Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold]

Gold watched as she pet the horse, as she moved closer to him he did not miss as her hand moved on his leg, a bit hard to miss such a thing. His eyes closed a bit, a the feel before he looked at her fully with her words "I think most of Storybrooke already had some idea if did not know we where in what, people see as together. Besides, I did say I would work to change, I though this would be a good start" Though he had been doing so before hand, it was just this was a bit diffrent in his ways.

[Belle/Lacey Gold]

"I think most of Storybrooke already had some idea if did not know we where in what, people see as together. Besides, I did say I would work to change, I though this would be a good start" He reply to her and Abi nodded. "This is...fabulous." She told him now. "I never would have expected you to do this." Abi wanted to get up. She took the horse by the reins now and led it to one of the stone benches climbing onto the bench, she was bale to pull herself up onto the horse behind Gold. Abi's arms went around his waist and she kissed the back of his neck through his hair.

[Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold]

Gold heard her words he nodded lightly with her first, at her second he smirked "Then it was indeed a suprise?...I am glade I was able to pull if off then" He did not stop her as she lead the horse, she lead the horse to a bench before moving onto the horses back behind him. He felt her arms go around his side, before he felt her kiss to the back of his neck even threw his hair, it did come to mind she likly would have more fun behind him then, he was going to. Once he was sure Abi, was ready he turned the horse heading for the park, it would be nice there where they could talk with out everyone being around.

[Belle/Lacey Gold]

"Then it was indeed a surprise?...I am glade I was able to pull if off then" He had asked. Now as they moved towards the park, Abi nodded. and the realized that the could not see that. "It was huge surprise." She confirmed with a chuckle. Her open hands in front to him moved over his stomach and one dropped to his upper thigh for a moment before moving back up to hold on a again.

"Mr. Gold." She said now. "This is amazing. A beautiful animal and the man I love. But what is the occasion?" She did not think anyone would do this for nothing more than a nice time. Abi could feel the sway of the animal under her and the park was empty at first view when they had arrived. Abi shifted her head forward to rest against his upper back.

[Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold]

Gold felt Abi hand move on him, at her words he spoke "I though it would be nice, since I heard you make a note of it when we where having a talk & I though it also would be nice surprise to do, as well since it is the anniversary since we meet here in the park. Though you are welcome to go ridding any time you want with or with out me on the horse. You are welcome to keep him at home or at the stables though, that choose I leave up to you"

[Belle/Lacey Gold]

Belle nodded against his back and smiled. Ho many men remembered things like anniversaries? Especially when it have been only a short period of time. She chuckled when he mentioned where to keep the horse. "I don't think keeping the horse at the house would be a go idea." She told him now. "You have a large yard but I don't think he would be happy there. He would need other horses to keep him happy so maybe at the stables? She would of course love to go out there every day and see him.

This was so nice. She could feel to movement of the horse and hear the creaking of the saddle mixed with the sound of the horse's hooves on the cement walkway. There was a nice breeze in the air and Abi could smell the scent of Mr. Gold. He smelled clean and felt warm against her face. This was perfect. She was so happy that she gave a little moan of pleasure and her arms tightened around him in a hug.

[Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold]

He felt her nod against his back, he smiled lightly form it of course leave it to Abi to get him to smile for no reason then she was there & it not be laced with a smirk that was a trademark of his. At her words he listened & of course his smile only grew into a smirk though he knew she did not see it he decided to just play to part of her words "Of course, you are right he would need another horse around... I suppose he would not be to happy alone. And we can keep him at the sable" Like anyone would say other wise, if he set his mind to do it.

As they rode to the sound of the horses movements, other then there words to break the tune he heard her make a little moan before, he felt her arms tighten around him into a hug & he was quick to find at how much a disadvantage he would be compared to Abi, on this ride. Of course now his ears burned because of the sound she made & it mattered little on why she did it, he was still moved in more ways then one.

"I take it you are happy?" Of course he had been close to asking what, he did to get such a sound out of her, but though better of it since well he knew he would be to tempted to work for it again, then the ride that he should be thinking about at the moment.
