Belle and Ruby are best friends.
And Belle is in love with Ruby, but she doesn't know how to say it.
"Just tell her, Belle." Emma said.
"But she's with Peter." Belle replied.
"Did you ever think that she's with Peter because you won't tell her you love her?" Regina asked.
"Look, I have an idea, okay?" Belle said.
"What's this idea?" Emma and Regina asked in unison.
"The Talent Show." Belle replied.
When Emma and Regina gave her confused looks, Belle continued.
"You guys know I can sing, I'm gonna sing a song for her."
"What song?" Emma asked.
"Feelings by Maroon 5." Belle answered almost instantaneously.
"That's an awesome idea!" Regina exclaimed.
"Yeah, well auditions are at lunch, and then the show is next week." Belle said.
"Good luck." Emma and Regina said with wide smiles.
The next week at the talent show, Belle stepped onto the stage.
Emma and Regina were cheering louder than anyone else and Ruby was just looking at Belle completely shocked.
"This goes out to a good friend of mine." Belle said, looking at Ruby the whole time.
She stepped back a little and the song started.
You and me and all that wine
Loosen my tie, lie down, let's fly
Every guy that passes by
(Look at her, look at her oh)
And you say that it's not right
But where does he think you are tonight?
Does he know your nasty side?
(Look at her, look at her oh)
If you want me take me home and let me use you
I know he doesn't satisfy you like I do
And does he know that there's nobody quite like you
So let me tell you all the things he never told you
(yeah!)
I got these feelings for you
And I can't help myself no more
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I, I, I
You and me let's go all night
Going so high, we f*ck the sky
Come with me now, f*ck that guy
(Look at her, look at her oh)
Now you flash that sexy smile
And tell me I've got to wait a while
And it makes me lose my mind
(Look at her, look at her oh)
If you want me take me home and let me use you
I know he doesn't satisfy you like I do
And does he know that there's nobody quite like you
So let me tell you all the things he never told you
(Yeah!)
I got these feelings for you
And I can't help myself no more
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I, I, I
(Can't help myself no more)
I, I, I
No, I can't wait much longer
It needs to happen now
'Cause I can't spend the rest of my life chasing you around
I want to get much closer
You need to tell me how
Baby, how, how
Babe, 'cause I
I got these feelings for you
And I can't help myself no more
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I got these feelings for you
(Got these feelings for ya, got these feelings for ya)
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I, I, I
Belle finished and everyone cheered.
She bowed and got off the stage, walking right to Ruby.
When she got close enough, she grabbed Ruby by the shoulders and kissed her.
"You could have said something earlier you know." Ruby said.
Belle playfully hit Ruby and smiled.
Ruby returned the smile happily.
They leaned in again, coming to terms with their feelings.
