As soon as she left, he sat down. He wasn't sure what hurt more, his heart or the unseen knife wound in his chest. He knew the wound wouldn't kill him but it was going to do its best and as he laid down in the cot on the back he felt the world begin to spin. He didn't fight it, passing out might be a nice break from life right now he thought. Belle meanwhile had made it about four steps out the turn before she realized that she didn't have the keys to the library apartment. They were in the back of Gold's shop in her purse where she had left it in her hurry to get out before he convinced her to stay. She turned around and walked to the back door and slid in, hoping he was still in the front and wouldn't here her. She saw the purse and grabbed it, about to leave when she saw Rumple passed out on the floor. The damn idiot, the knife wound was probably worse than he let on. She walked over and slapped him. Well how else do you wake up an unconscious person plus she was still incredibly angry at him.

"Belle" he said groggily, "did you just slap me?" he asked astonished.

"Yes, and you deserved it, now get up, I'm taking you to the hospital." She grabbed him and helped him unsteadily to his feet.

"You came back," he said happily.

"I just had to grab my purse," she answered seeing his face fall. "come one, let's get to the car." She helped him to the car and as soon as he slid into the seat, his eyes shut. Shit, she thought, he definitely couldn't die from this, right, she wondered worriedly. She put her foot firmly on the gas and sped to the hospital.

Once at the hospital Whale came out and asked with confusion, "What's wrong with him?"

"He used elemental magic to heal me from a stab wound to the chest and the price was that he has the wound now, though you can't see it on the outside. He said it wouldn't kill him because the curse won't let it, but he doesn't look so good. He can't heal it because he doesn't have any magic right now. The curse wasn't happy that our true love broke the shattered sight curse."

"Ah, so that's why everyone's normal again."

"Yeah" Belle responded embarrassed by her word vomit to the doctor a second ago but when she got nervous she tended to do that and well right now, she was very nervous.

"Okay, well I will admit him" Whale said, "I'm not sure what exactly I can do for him but some IV fluids should help."

Whale set him up in a hospital bed and connected him to several IVs and a heart monitor. The doctor checked on him occasionally and told Belle that he seemed to be doing better but he still hadn't woken up. Belle planned to leave as soon as he began to wake up, she was serious about the time apart. She loved the man but she wasn't one of the people he could manipulate and play. No, she was his wife and she deserved better than this. So when she saw his eyes begin to flutter, she collected her stuff and began to leave but apparently not fast enough.

"Belle?" he said as she was about to leave. "Where am I?" And then Gold remembered. Killian had stabbed Belle, he had used elemental magic to save her, he had told her the truth, he had passed out on the floor, she had came back.

"You're in hospital, you passed out in the shop. I know you said you can't die from this but Whale said you were pretty close."

"Well I can see your leaving but Belle, no matter what I did, I never meant to hurt you. I love you, you know that right?" Rumple asked hesitantly.

Belle walked over the bedside and placed a kiss gently on his lips. "Rumple, as angry as I am at you right now, I still love you. I just need sometime to think but I know. I know you love me and I love you too. Goodbye" and with that she was gone.
