"As alright as can be" He told her but Belle could still see he was angry. "Dearie, I can only make deals for those that want to make deals" He added. Belle nodded. That was true of course. Belle realized that she was still holding the wine out to him. She looked at the wine and then met his eyes again. If he didn't want it, that was fine.
At his question, Belle shrugged. "Somewhat." She replied softly. "But you're not." Belle had only wanted to come her to see her father and Gaston but mainly her father. Other than that, she no longer felt like she belonged here. Not that she didn't belong in the house because it was still her home. That she didn't belong in this society. Maybe she had just been away from everyone for too long. "Would you like to back to the castle?" She meant his castle of course.

He heard her words, he looked at her of course he had missed the wine she held, how that happened he did not know other then his mind was indeed some where else. He lightly took the glass form her "I cannot say all has been bad & I suppose the idea that so far no deals have shown them self, has put more off a bit" Of course it was only half true, but he seldom spoke in hole truth "We could head back" He looked at her "But, I though you would want to stay longer & would you leave without a last dance?" He smirked softly "Perhaps off some where away form watchful eyes" He watched her before he spoke again "I would even allow you to lead" As he waited for her words he took a drink of the wine, it was good though it did little to help his mood, but Belle did he knew that he could feel it, but he felt like a fool in some way that she could effected him so.

When he took the wine from her, Belle looked down at his hand for a moment. "I cannot say all has been bad & I suppose the idea that so far no deals have shown them self, has put more off a bit" He told her. Belle understood. She knew well enough that this mans life was his deals. She didn't understand why but Belle tried to understand the best she could.
"Of course." She finally said softly. "We could head back" He continued and she nodded. "But, I though you would want to stay longer & would you leave without a last dance? Perhaps off some where away form watchful eyes" Belle smiled more genuinely now and when he added "I would even allow you to lead" She laughed a little.
"I would love one last dance." She told him softly. Belle gave a discreet little wink just to try and lighten his mood. She turned from him now and headed back for the garden. "Come on." Belle said in a low voice. She led the way back to the garden and then to the gazebo were they had first spoken. Belle mounted the wooden steps and then turned and waited for him.

Rumple heard her words, he listened to her words he could not say that he was not happy to hear she wanted a last dance, though he also questioned if she would not want to spend time with her father after, he could not blame her if she did, he was after all her father. As she started to head off he heard her words, he moved to fallow finding that once more they where where they first meet, he finished his drink before seating it down, approaching Belle on the gazebo, of course he was bound to his promise if she took him up on it. He moved closer to her before he spoke "Will you be leading dearie?" He was sure for others had given her the chance to lead, now he waited for her words to know for sure who would lead & form there to know where to place his hands.

"Will you be leading dearie?" He asked her and Belle chuckled. "No." She told him softly. "I think I can let you keep that." In fact she surprised herself and surely him when she stepped towards him and so close there was no more than an inch between them. Belle placed one arm around his shoulders and with her other hand, lifted his arm to place it around her waist. He could adjust the distance between them if he liked but she wanted to see how he took to this. The hand of the arm around his shoulders moved now to the back of his neck and she stroked it soothingly under his hair. The music from the party could still be heard though it was faint.

Rumple indeed was surprised by Belles words of no, he though she would like the chance to lead, he heard the words that fallowed. How ever he was ever more surprised when she steeped close to him, so very close, he felt his breathing quicken though he did not move away from her, one part of him wanted & another part did not, so he was rooted for the moment to the ground. He felt her place her arm around his shoulder before he felt her hand move to move his arm to her waist, he then felt her hand move to the back of his neck to stroke lightly under his hair.
He knew well that to dance would not be taken well if others saw, a good thing they where away form others, he moved to take her free hand, so that he could lead them in a dance even if it would be a very close dance, he was not sure to make of it or more so how she would take to the idea to dance so close, but he would not know with out trying.

Belle had seen how he had first reacted to her touch. This man confused her too much. There were times when he looked at her that she could feel that he liked her as a man could like a woman. But then other times he was so withdrawn. Then there was the kiss...well kisses. There was no one else around so Belle did not think it could be the fear of being seen. Not that anyone would say anything to this man anyways. Belle was just confused. When he started to dance, she moved with him effortlessly. Her body did not touch his except for the slightest of brushes here and there. Her eyes moved over his face lingering on his lips and then back to his eyes. She almost lost herself in the moment. The were no lights here and it was even darker in the gazebo casting them both in shadows.

Rumple could feel the times that they touched, at some points it was simpler to look over then others. He danced with her longer, hearing the music play on, it was only when it stopped did he draw the dance to an end, her face was still bathed in shadow, much like they both where, even with his breathing faster a bit, it did not stop him form speaking "If you want, you can get more of your things or spend more time with your father"
He could not say if it was a miss of her being so close & the party, perhaps drink that got him to move to kiss her or if it was something else, how ever what ever drew him to act he did not knowing how it would turn out, like before or would Belle push him away this time, there was no telling.

The music ended and this time Belle did not pull away from him. In fact she stayed the same way she was. "If you want, you can get more of your things or spend more time with your father" He told her now. Belle thought about this. "I'll say good bye but it hurts to see him and then know I have to leave." This was true but it was not that she didn't want to leave with him. Belle did not think she be without this man now. "But I will go and get some more of my clothes and such. She had not thought he would kiss her but when he moved to do so, she had no hesitation and in fact, her head moved forward at the last moment to meet him. She wanted to move closer to him now but held herself back not know what he wanted from her.

Rumple heard Belle words he could excepted them, for he knew the pain she had to be feeling to know she had to leave, but he hopped she was happy to of come. He heard her words of getting more things he nodded, as she moved to meet his lips the arm around her waist moved to draw her closer with out thinking about it, he moved to continue the kiss of course like before he had no idea where it would lead.

She blushed a little even with the kiss when he pulled her closer. Her head was tilted back slightly as she moved to deepen the kiss a little. What was it about this man that made him so kissable?
He had bought her..well bartered for her. Taken her away from her family and had originally told her he wanted her to skin children... And yet she could not help but wanted to be near him. To touch him. To kiss him. It was baffling even at a moment like this.
The hand that had been in his now slipped from his fingers and then moved to run gently over his solid chest. That was another thing about him and she did not know if it generally was all men or just him, but his body was firm. It made her feel safe. She could take care of herself of course but every woman ultimately wanted to feel protected.

He felt her deepen the kiss & he fallowed suit, he was enjoying the kiss what she awoke in him, things he had not felt in many years, yet she was able to rise him. He made a sound of pleasure with the feel of her touch to his chest, he continued until they needed air, where he broke it, but he was breaking heavy & had to think about stopping this kiss, before it got out of control. Yet, even with out kissing her he had not let her go, he felt her hand on his chest he did not move to stop her as she ran her hand over him, but he had to still his hands form starting anything.

When he broke the kiss, she did not push for more though she wanted it. She could hear his fast breaths and Belle looked up at him for a moment before leaning forward and kissing the center of his chest and then the hollow of his throat. She wanted more. He had initiated this and Belle did not understand why he would not even move to touch her now. True his arm still held her to him but that was all. The tip of her tongue came out against the flesh of the base of his throat and then she moved to bury her face against his hair and side of his neck just breathing him in.

Rumple was working to come to terms with all that happened, yet it was clear he would not get the chance to think on it much, no he would get other things to think about. He felt her kiss the center of his chest, he was not sure if she knew what she was doing, but she was playing with fire & he feared more if she did not know. At the kiss to his throat he was left to think of more & at the feel of her tongue on his skin he moaned, he could not help it. As moved her face into his throat & hair, his other hand moved to hold her like the first, it took him a bit before he spoke "Belle, as enjoyable as this is, I think it wise we look at getting your items that you want"

She liked his scent. Musky but with a hint of soap as well. She had not moved for a few moments but had felt his other hand touch her. When he spoke however, it put a damper on the peacefulness she was feeling. "Belle," He said and she gave a murmurer in response. "as enjoyable as this is, I think it wise we look at getting your items that you want" Belle sighed softly and then slowly lifted her head. "Right." She replied looking as his shoulder instead of his face. It was something she did when she got embarrassed. She could not look the person in the eye right away. both hands came of of him and she stood there waiting for him to release her.
