The wedding was being performed by Prince Charming! Now that Regina no longer had any power there.
Belle was busy getting into her gown, with help from some of the girls she had recently met, Red and Snow! She soon had everything on and was ready to walk down the aisle. Snow and Red looked at her,
"Wow girl that dress is absolutely gorgeous on you!" Snow gushed.
"Totally stunning!" Red agreed instantly. Belle was grateful to the two girls and whispered "we girls really must get together sometime, after this, I really could use some females in the house sometimes!" she giggled.
Red looked at Belle "Are you sure he won't mind us coming to see you?"
Belle knew that Red was referring to Rumple and laughed "oh don't you guys worry, I'll take care of my husband!" she grinned tasting the words for the first time. Although it was't official until she went down there she felt she might as well call him that.
Red and Snow both led her to the doorway as they would be her brides maids. Snow and Charming's three year old daughter Emma was tossing the flowers for them. She threw a motherly look at little Emma wondering if her own child would be that beautiful.
But then the door opened and she was being led down the aisle to the tune of dreams do come true. But she only had eyes for Rumple whose hair was just as careless as usual and his suit of gold and blue. She smiled as her love for this man filled her with a joy she had never known before.
Soon she stood in front of him and she saw his eyes give her a slow once over, and she felt a blush creep into her face, at the look on his face, his mouth hanging open then she saw the sparkle in his eyes, and she whispered "what, why are you looking at me like that?"
Rumpelstiltskin laughed "I'm enjoying the beauty of my new wife, you are just absolutely beautiful, the most beautiful thing i've ever seen." Finally they turned their attention to Prince Charming who watched them slowly calculatingly before starting the ceremony.
"Do you Rumpelstiltskin take this beautiful woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, and man forsaking all others, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
Rumple smiled at Belle staring her in the eyes, and said very clearly "I do!"
Belle grinned with all the love in her heart as Charming turned to her, and asked started
"And Mrs. Belle do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, and forsaking all others, in sickness and in health for richer or poorer, until death do you part, as long as you both shall live?"
Belle smiled no hestation and she spoke firmly. "Yes, I do!" she responded softly!
The rings were slid onto their fingers. And finally Charming closed his book and said "you may now kiss the bride!"
Rumple pulled Belle into his arms and kissed her. She looked at him lovingly and smiling. "OH Rumple this is the best day of my life! I love you so much!" Rumple lifted her into his arms and took her home. And into his room and his bed. He ripped the dress off of her. And kissed her hard. Soon the dress and his suit were down on the floor and the two of them lay exhausted on the bed. She snuggled against him and finally she shared with him.
"Rumple do you mind if my new friends visit every now and again?" she asked softly. She watched Rumple look at her calculating. "Only if I am here with you!" he finally responded.
"You young lady are not allowed out of my sight, not after what happened a few months back, never will I let you stay here by yourself unprotected."
"Rumple they wont' hurt me! Not those two! Not Ruby and Snow!" she protested gently. Rumple smiled "oh so that is who you speak of, they may visit you anytime they like."
"Good cause I told them I'd talk to you about it! I told them that I couldn't say anything without talking to my husband first!" Finally she fell asleep beside him.
