Drabble 12 : A quiet life.

A child laugh resonated in the air. A little girl with long blond hair was running, happy, behind another little girl with brunette hair.

Their two laughs mixed in the air. The first child was Rapunzel, and the second one was Belle, who was the king's daughter.

They were friends since almost their birth, close thanks to their fathers' friendship but also by their mothers' deaths. They were both five years old, and were already beautiful little girls.

Rapunzel was trying with difficulty to catch the little princess, but this one was running too fast for her. But it didn't stop her form laughing.

Rumplestiltskin, her father, the king's friend, was walking slowly with this last one, behind them, smiling. The king seemed to be happy and it looked like he finally moved on after his wife's death, which happened five years earlier.

The two little girls were still running, and the two men were savoring its calm and quiet instant, during which they didn't have to care about what happened in the kingdom.

Rapunzel and Belle were their two jewels, that they tried to preserve as much as they could. It was a beautiful day, perfect, and they could just appreciate it.

This children' innocence made them feel better, to them, running a kingdom, and tired as they were.

They smiled again, by seeing Rapunzel's victorious smile who just caught her friend.

Yes, it was a quiet life that they had…
