Disclaimer: I do not own the Beauty and the Beast franchise. Only this story.
It has been two days since Adam and Belle were reunited after two months and Adam has not left the cell tower once. Adam and the staff have tried to make the cell feel more cozy for Belle. There were piles of books along the one cell wall and after given the supplies, Belle made herself a little bed. Adam too created himself a bed on the other side of the bars because he stayed with her each night.
They now had their hands glued together through the bars. "You don't have to stay here...I'll be okay...I'm warm and full of delicious food."
Belle finally was out of her nightgown and into more weather appropriate clothes which was a puffy green dress. Sure to keep her warmer than her preferable blue one. Unfortunatly she was unable to get clean and she felt gross after not bathing for two months.
"Are you crazy?" Adam shook his head. "I'm never leaving your side." Belle looked at him sadly. "I would rather you go looking for a solution to get me out of here than keeping me company..." she teared up just wanting a proper bed and for her arms to be wrapped around her husband.
"I know you do Belle but I don't think there's a way..." He massages her palm with his thumb. "He used magic."
Belle nodded. "I know..."
"I almost forgot..." He smiles and reaches into his pocket. He takes out a book with a beautiful cover. He handed it to her and she read the title. She gasped. "Adam...is this the original edition?" He nodded. "Yep. I went all the way to Verona to get it for you."
"During your adventure?" She asked and smirked. "It was far from adventurous. I was panicked during that trip..."
"I know. Nevermind. Sorry I brought it up." She traces her finger over the Romeo and Juliet title. "Thank you Adam."
He nodded. Anything for her.
"What are we gonna do...when the baby comes?" She looked into Adam's piercing blue eyes. "Sure I'll be set free but he'll take the baby from me if it's a boy and kill it if it's a girl...and then I'll be shipped off somewhere." Belle looked down glumly.
"I know...I've thought about it too. But he won't succeed Belle." He played with her wedding ring. "How can you be so sure?" She asks feeling hopeless.
"I won't let him touch you or the baby." He smirks at her. "And if my plan goes right he'll be dead before the baby even arrives."
