[An: Here is Chapter seven finally! Sorry for the long wait, I hope you like it! Please keep the reviews coming i love reading your thoughts and opinions!]


Killian opened his eyes, they had been shut so tight he saw spots in his vision. He could still feel the rolling smoke and the wind blowing harshly against him. When it finally cleared he caught the breath he didn't even know he had been holding.

"Bloody hell..."

Belle moved back looking around, her heart was thumping hard and it felt near to jumping from her chest. She looked back at the Pirate and felt the awkward tension in the air around them. She couldn't erase what had happened the past years during this curse.

Killian looked at her with obvious confusing, he was battling what to say.

"Lass..I.." Killian began.

"Belle.." Came a scottish accent.

Belle turned quickly to see her 'love', she ran to him and hugged him tightly. "Rumple!" Her hands gripped his suit jacket and her nails dug in deep.

"Oh my Belle..." He looked at Killian with quite a sinister grin. He had finally won and victory tasted sweet for the scaly reptile.

Killian looked down, backing up he walked for his boat. Who was he to think she would even look his way? And why should he care? He was forced into a false marriage with the lass, not like he chose to do it. He was a loner not a lover, not since Milah. The fantasy they lived in was not his style, he was a Pirate not a Librarian's husband. He shrugged his leather jacket off and tossed it to the corner.

Belle looked back to see Killian was gone, her eyes searched for the man. To no avail he was nowhere to be seen. She had little time to ponder it a she was pulled away, her heels clicked sharply on the sidewalk as she quickened her pace to keep up.


Belle smiled as Rumple poured her some water, she missed him so much. Yet he was so close to her during the curse.

"I hope your feeling well my dear." Rumple looked up at her to confirm his statement.

"Just a bit foggy, I mean I lived a whole other life." She looked at her hands.

"I know dearie, I'm so sorry that Regina did this to you." He smiled, rubbing her hand with his thumb. "Put you with that...filthy degenerate."

"Y-Yeah.." Belle sipped her water. Killian had been her husband for twenty-eight years, and every moment was branded in her brain and her hate for him had vanquished. She still couldn't ignore her love for Rumpe, but it felt different now. Like it wasn't right, her heart didn't thump hard around him anymore.

"I'm going to go lie down..." She stood and excused herself and bounded for the stairs. She needed the distance, feeling his eyes bore into her every step till she disappeared.

Laying in the bed was cold, felt like she was missing something. She was sure if Rumple laid next to her it would all come back. Or was she wrong? She looked at her hand, that showcased the beautiful diamond ring and gold band. Her heart sunk and thumped repeatedly against her throbbing chest. It had all happened and it wasn't a dream, Killian was her husband. Obviously they would have to change that, since it was a prison for them both by Regina. She didn't want Killian to be tied down to her for much longer.


Killian looked down at the gold band on his finger and twisted it a few times and pulled it from his finger. The impression stayed however, giving him a sore reminder of it. He laid it down on the table and stood. He needed to head home, well to the home he had with..

"Captain, do you need a ride?"

"No Mr. Smee I think I shall walk." He pulled on his leather jacket and left the boat behind him.

Getting to the house Killian felt a sense of familiarness and yet a bigger feeling of meeting a stranger for the firs time. This was a home he had shared with the woman and since she was living with the croc now, he needed to rid of..the things they shared.

He pushed the key into the lock, feeling it took nearly a century to even open it. He closed it behind him and was hit with vanilla and rum. He laughed, some habits never changed. He pushed from the door and laid the keys in a clear bowl, and put his jacket in the closet near the kitchen.

"Lets get to this then.." He sighed deeply and grabbed a few trash bags from the laundry room and cleaned up the mess from whatever Belle had made.

When it came time to go through their clothes Killian found himself holding a blue dress firmly. The scent was filled with a flowery soap powder smell. Yet no cleaning product could wash away the memories of what this dress held in his heart. He had taken Belle on her first boat trip, and she had surprised the hell out of him catching a HUGE fish. She had handled it like she was born to do it, and even cleaned and gutted the thing. He had never been so inlove with her as he had been then She was beautiful even covered in sea salt and fish blood.

He folded it and put it in the box near him and sighed deeper, they weren't in love now. Or really never were if he got down to it. It was fabrications put in their minds by the evil queen. Cruel witch that woman, playing with them like this.


Killian knocked on the door to Mr. Gold/Rumplestiltskins house. I was as if he was knocking on a sound proof door, he knew he was here his car was parked outside and he lights were all on. After a few more minutes the door opened, and there stood the beat himself.

"What do I owe this...pleasure?" Gold said glaring at Killian with intense hate.

"I brought this for Belle, it's her clothes and personal belongings." Killian said, trying to keep from bloody flatting his nose to his face.

"Oh good, saves the rip to your house." Rumple said sneering at the pirate.

"Listen mate, I'm trying to be civil here." Killian sighed, he just wanted to go home.

"Oh you thought I was not?" Rumple mocked him. "I wonder why?"

Killian glared holes into the older man. "Still a coward eh?"

"Excuse me?" Slits replaced the human eyes of the dark one.

"Still hiding behind each word you speak." Killian chuckled. "Bloody hell is there a single true bone in your body mate?"

"Most would fear to eve speak to me like that dearie."

"Most don't' know who you really are 'Gold'." Killian said in a venom coated tone. "The piece of shit that killed his sons mother out of revenge." Killian backed away walking home.

Rumple seethed with anger slamming his door cracking it.

"Who was that?" Belle said coming to a stop at the bottom of the stairs.

"Just a pain in my ass." He muttered.

"What?"

"Nothing dearie, just Killian bringing your clothes.

Belle bit her lip, Killian had been here? When Rumple disappeared into the kitchen she opened the door catching the glimpse of his back. Her mouth opened to call for him. But it was if her mouth was frozen in place. He vanished around a corner and Belle took it as a sign to drop it.
