Chapter 6: - My Sweet Secret

After Rumple explained all to Belle, He checked if the coast was clear before they carried on to the nursery. As Rumple opened the door and stepped into the room, Nanny Robyn ran at him with a broom,

"For Mishaven!" she yelled going to hit him with the broom but Belle quickly ran in front of him and held up her hands,

"Nanny Robyn stop... It's ok. It's Rumple. He remembers" she assured her and Nanny Robyn looked mortified as she quickly dropped the broom and bowed respectfully,

"Your majesty I am so so sorry I had no idea" she said guilty and Rumple smiled before waving his hand,

"it's no matter" he assured her before whispering in his wife's ear,

"That woman could win a war hands down with nothing but a broomstick" he whispered teasing and Belle giggled. Madeline smiled, seeing her son and she wrapped her arms around him, hugging him,

"Oh my boy... Thank goodness your safe" she said relieved,

"I thought I'd lost you" she whispered and Rumple smiled before shaking his head,

"Never mother... I promise" he assured her before hearing his daughter gurgle from inside her crib and he smiled and went over,

"There's my precious little flower" he cooed as he scooped her up into his arms and held her close as he pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead. Belle smiled as she watched before walking over to his side and pressed a kiss to his cheek,

"She missed you... We all did" she said softly before growing worried,

"Where's Bae?" she asked and Rumple looked at her as he held their daughter,

"Don't worry, He's safe. He and his grandfather are locked in the dungeon but don't worry I have a plan" he promised and Belle smiled,

"That's great! What's the plan?" she asked determined and he looked as if thinking for a moment before looking at her awkwardly,

"Ok... I'm 'Working' on a plan" he promised and Belle rolled her eyes amused,

"Oh Rumple" she said teasing and he acted innocent,

"What?... I've only gotten as far as punching Gaston in the face. In my eyes that's progress" he said but couldn't help but chuckle and Belle shook her head as she giggled.

Over the next week Gaston had been working Belle to the bone. He never rested when it came to wish making and Belle was exhausted after she made yet another giant chest of gold appear and she slowly fell to her knees. Gaston smirked as he admired the gold, picking some up in his hand and then allowing it to spill back into the chest before smirking at Belle,

"Right next..." he began but Belle looked at him desperately,

"Please... Let me rest" she begged,

"I've used too much magic... I'm exhausted" she said tiredly and Gaston looked at her with a bored expression,

"Oh please, you're a genie for heavens' sake" he complained and Belle looked down sadly,

"Even genie's have their limits master... I just need 20 minutes to get my strength back... Please" she begged and Gaston rolled his eyes before nodding,

"Very well... You may use that time to also visit your son but no longer than 20 minutes" he said firmly and Belle smiled relieved,

"Thank you" she said and went to stand but she fell because she was too weak to stand on her own, Gaston rolled his eyes before looking at a guard,

"Assist her" he ordered and the guard quickly complied and helped her to her feet and she smiled gratefully before walking out the throne room slowly.

Belle walked down the corridor that lead to the staircase to the dungeon when Rumple popped his head out and smiled before pulling her into the shadows with a smirk and she giggled as he held her in his arms,

"There's my little actress" he teased and she giggled as he kissed her gently,

"Where you successful?" he asked and she smirked before holding up a ring of keys,

"Worked like a charm" she said brightly and Rumple chuckled,

"Oh have I told you lately how much I love you?" he asked smiling brightly, pulling her closer and she smiled, wrapping her arms around his neck,

"You tell me every time we get a moment alone together" she reminded him in a teasing tone and he smiled,

"And yet it's still not enough times" he teased before kissing her once more and Belle giggled lightly,

"Do you remember our plan?" she asked and he chuckled,

"It's your plan you came up with it" he teased and she rolled her eyes,

"We're married so if you want to be technical. It's both our plan" she said and he chuckled before kissing her cheek,

"As you wish" he said, taking the keys from her gently and removed one and gave it to her,

"Ok. You remember what you have to do and which route to take?" he asked and she smiled nodding,

"Of course. The north passage with no guards on duty" she reminded and he smiled brightly,

"Good" he said before kissing her gently,

"Stay Safe" he said firmly and she smiled,

"You too" she said before they both headed off in different directions.
