Rumpel was spinning at the wheel, hopping to forget Belle yet no matter how much he did the spinning would not let him forget much like his son, he would never forget & he knew that he lied to her he needed her here with him. The wheel came to a stop he did not know if he could find Belle again or more so he could just if she would come back with him, he needed her here with him & was hopping he could convince her of the same. He rose before he snapped his fingers, diapering in a cloud of purple smoke to appear on the out side the village closest to his castle he used his magic to make a cloak appear so he could, put it on & moved to head into town looking for Belle he drew the cloak hood low so none would see him as well & he had a scroll with Bells face drawn on it, to help him show people he who he was looking for, approaching the first present he saw he spoke "Excuse me have you scene this woman?" With that he showed the drawling of Belle, with that he waited for them to speak.

It had been a long walk but Belle had found her way to the nearest village. She had the little bit of money had had on her when Rumpelstiltskin had brought her to his castle and now Belle headed for a small pub. There were a few people here but many rectangular tables and wooden chairs. Animal heads were on the wall and a fire burned in a large fireplace on the wall opposite the door Belle had entered through.
She headed for the long wooden bar where she ordered an Ale and then food a table to sit at. Before long she was joined by a few dwarfs. "You look so sad." One said to her. Belle gave a soft smile. "Life has not been what I expected lately." She explained. As the dwarf began to speak, Belle listened happy for the understanding voice.

Rumpel had not gotten an answer form the person if they knew that where not saying, yet Rumpel did not think they did so he walked on thinking where else to look for Belle, after a bit of time looking he ended up at the pub, none really looked at him & his eyes flickered over the few with out making so noted he was looking for someone, he headed to the counter to order a drink & ask on Belle. He was not trusting enough here to leave his back open with out remaining alert he keep his eyes forward you his mind open to if danger was around, none could hear him ask the dark tender on Belle but, the bar tender so now he waited for their answer. He had no idea to know that he had missed Belle only by a short time, if not walked right by her when he looked around just missing her.

Belle had told the dwarf what she could about what she had been through without going into too much detail. He in turn had shared parts of his love and loss. A few more of his friends,dwarfs as well had come to join them at the table. Suddenly one jumped visibly and his ale sloshed. Belle glanced at him questioningly.
"The Dark One." He whispered. Belle tensed. She looked in the direction the dwarf was starring as did everyone else at the table. "Why is he here?" She asked out loud but softly. Belle could not even be sure if it was Rumpelstiltskin. The man was wearing a cloak and had his back to her.
"I have to go." She said now. The dwarf she had been speaking to meet her eyes. "Tell me you're kidding?" He said rather loudly. "The Dark One?"

Rumpel heard the dwarf words, he turned quickly to face the direction the voice came from the room became a deadly silence as if many did not know what to do or feared to move. "Dwarf?" Rumpel giggled as he asked he might not be in the mood to do a deal, yet he knew his rep would pay the price if he did not answer the call his focus was on the dwarf when somthing caught his eyes as he looked he swore he saw Belle, his heart almost stopped. He felt the draw he moved closer the group, his eyes on the one he was sure was Belle. Even with the call of a deal, that could be his focus was not on the dwarf any more it was on one he grew sure of being their with each steep.

Belle pulled the hood of her cloak up over her head and looked down at the table when Rumpelstiltskin spoke. The Dwarf stood and Belle hissed "No...sit down." She could hear how silent the room had gotten and the footsteps approaching. The Dwarf looked to Belle and then sat slowly.
Both of Belle's hands found the mug of ale on the table and she held it tightly. Her hands were trembling even though she tried to keep them steady. She did not dare to look up at him as the footsteps stopped beside her. THE Dwarfs around her watched everything silently and nervously.

As he moved the table the saw the dwarf seat down he looked at him as he spoke "Cat got your toug now dwarf?" His focus then moved to look at the figured seeing them, appear to be shaking of course it could be fear yet there was only one way to find out he moved quickly to draw back the hood of the figure the brown curries of one he knew was Belle, he would know her any where. "Belle" He hopped that she would speak to him now that he found her "I need to speak with you Belle" He did not know if she would do so or tell him something that was sure not to be good.

Belle did not move as he pulled back her hood. When he had spoken to the Dwarf however, Belle glanced over at the little man. She willed him to keep his tongue. Belle had no doubt the Rumpelstiltskin would do something horrible. The Dwarf however was not looking to start a fight with the Dark One.
"Belle" Rumpelstiltskin said now. Belle did not look up. "I need to speak with you Belle" He added. "I think you've said enough." Belle retorted now still not looking up a him. "You made your choice."
She tried to sound strong but her eyes were filling up with tears as she spoke. He had treated her so badly and only because she had kissed him. How was she supposed to know that he had not wanted the curse removed? She had fallen in love with him and had only wanted to help.

The dwarf said nothing it good for him, Rumpel did not miss Bells words he felt a sting that she did not wish to speak with him. He knew he could force her to do it, yet he would not do so he could not to Belle so he thought perhaps doing other wise could get her to do so. Of course what came out was not what he had in mind "Belle please, I wish to make makeup for it to you" If she turned him down, he would look for a fool than being the dark one saying he did something wrong, as his mind came to turn on what he said he hopped this did not get out for he would be scene as weak or not quite like he should be & could be taken advantage of.

Belle was so aware of all the people in the pub watching everything with eagle eyes. She still had not looked up at the man at her side. It was odd however. Everyone else was afraid of this man. Why wasn't she? Belle knew that he was dangerous. She wasn't stupid by any means. But she didn't fear him. Cautious maybe but not today. Today she was a woman scorned and that was something every man should fear.
Yet when he spoke, "Belle please, I wish to make makeup for it to you", It was something so unusual for him. Belle glanced up at him in surprise. For a fleeting moment, she though of the good times she had shared with him. The laughter and the games and the conversations that had made her fall in love with him in the first place. It was not every woman who could love a beast.
Belle started to stand and the dwarf at her side placed one hand on hers. "Belle, don't" He told her. Belle gave him her sweet smile. "I'll be okay." She told him softly. "I'm not going far." Belle stood before the Dark One now. She met his eyes with a chilling gaze and then turned and walked to a near by empty table and sat expecting him to follow.

He knew he might have to quite any rumors that came form this, Belle would not like it yet his beast of a side demanded it the only thing that keep it form happening was Belle getting up. Of course with the Dwarfs words, Rumpels eyes where on him, as if ready to do something his focus was drawn to Belle as she moved, he did not miss the look she gave him a look few would have & lived. He fallowed her, over to the table where she took a seat, he waited a moment before doing the same he was not sure what to say, not sure if I need you back would work his mind thought on much yet he feared that she would walk out of his life a second time. He could not live with the idea, he could not lose her again perhaps he would have to explain that he needed his curse for now, he was not sure he could say why since he was not sure it would make Belle like him any more if she hatted him.

Belle watched as he moved to join her at the new table. She looked down at the table top as he sat and waited for him to speak. So many thing were going through her head. She was going to be strong. No matter what he said, she was not going to come back with him. She was going home to her castle with her father. She would find Gaston and she would put all of this behind her. Still he was silent. Belle did not want to look at him. If she did. it would do nothing but remind her of how much she loved him. She was sure of it. That would just make her weak. He had made it perfectly clear that he did not want her with him anymore. Her love was proven by her kiss. He had chosen his powers over her. She almost said "Well?" But kept herself from doing so.

He stil felt beside on what to say, yet he thought to speak his thoghts to see where the chips would fall so to speak "I was wrong Belle, I need you at the castle...the place is not the same with out you thier" It was true, it was not the same it did not hold the warmth it once did with her thier it was back to being a cold & lonly place to be where he was left to remember he was a beast. He still had the chipped cup & she was right his heart was not the same with out her he needed her he only hopped he was not to late to make admince for his wrong somthing he could not think he felt much of other then when he lost his son.

"That's not what you were saying earlier." Belle replied now in a soft voice. She glanced at him now. "All I did was kiss you. True loves kiss. I thought you would be happy." She shook her head. "How was I know? You..." She was remembering the way he had yelled for her to shut up. The way he had grabbed her. Being pushed to the hard floor of the cell and being locked there much the way she had the day she had first arrived. It had not been what she had expected in return to kissing the man she loved. Belle remembered the hurt he had caused her both physically and emotionally. "How can you ask me to come back?" She looked back to the table. "Why did you even come for me? You only want me there to clean and cook for you."

"I was upset & it was wrong of me, I thought you where working with Regina the Queen & I do wish to be happy its... its is just I never figuered I would find it... so I just lost hope... it woud ever be" He heard her last words "I did not just come to find you just so you can cook & clean" He sighed "I will not ask it of you if you come back Belle" He was not sure what else to do to beg her came to mind, yet the setting was a really bad place for such a thing. "Please Belle, I need you to come back"
