Authors note: All moved into my apartment and I have a few weeks before classes start but like i said in the previous chapter. I'm now getting pretty busy, so the more reviews I get the quicker I will be able to post more chapters.

With that said, this is chapter 12. This chapter is going to be more on Belle's point of view than Adams because it was necessary

Enjoy and Happy Reading!

Previously:

With much to his surprise, Belle spoke again. "So what am I to be doing in the library?"

"Probably shelving and making sure the books are in order alphabetically on the shelf. The normal library routine." He told her.

"Alright." She replied.

"There is also a little boy around the castle who would probably love to read with you. He loves books." Adam continued.

"Oh." Belle said sounding surprised. "I'd love that. What is his name?" She asked.

"Chip." Adam said.

Adam noticed a big smile come across Belles face. She only nodded in agreement and seemed excited about reading with Chip. With that said, the two of them sat quietly and enjoyed each other's company until they reached the castle.

Now:

Belle POV:

The carriage came to a complete stop and Belle looked up from her book. As she looked out the window, the castle came into view. It was huge, beautiful, and had its own elegance and charm. 'I've never seen anything like it' She thought to herself. 'But I definitely could get use to this.'

Adam was the first to get out and Belle saw him reach out his hand to help her down. She took it with grace and he guided her out. She heard him chuckle to himself, probably because she was so in awe of everything. She walked away from Adam and tried to take every detail in.

Belle was so intrigued with the grounds that she didn't notice Adam talking to three adults: two men and one woman.

Belle decided that she would probably have more time to explore later and so she quickly walked over to join Adam.

There he introduced the three adults; Cogsworth, Lumiere, and Mrs. Potts. As Belle shook their hands, she studied their appearances.

Cogsworth is an obese man and on top of his head was a curly brown hairpiece. On his face he sported a long Salvador Dali type mustache, and had a pocket watch dangling from his neck.

The other man, with the name Lumiere, is a lanky man with auburn hair that is tied back in a ponytail with a yellow ribbon. He carried a strong French accent, which Belle came accustomed to very quickly.

Mrs. Potts is a plump older woman with white hair that is pulled back in a bun. She is also wearing a lavender cap, blouse, and skirt, as well as a white apron.

But what Belle didn't notice was a small boy sitting by Mrs. Potts feet. This boy was probably about _ years old. He was small and slender, and had the most beautiful blue eyes and dirty blonde hair. Adam probably didn't see him sitting there, so she bent down and spoke to the boy.

"Hello there." Belle said in her sweetest voice. "What's your name?"

The boy looked at her with the saddest eyes ever. It was almost like the she should know the boy, but she didn't. Belle remembered the conversation with Adam in the carriage about a little boy living in the castle.

"Is your name Chip?" She asked.

The biggest smile sweped across his face and he yelled "Belle! You do remember me," as he lepted up to hug her.

She didn't know how to tell the boy that she hadn't met him until now, so she just sat there with the boy in her arms. She looked at Adam for help.

And help he did. "I told her about you in the carriage on the way to the castle, chip." Belle heard Adam say. "I told her how much you love books and she would love to read with you."

Belle tried to hold onto the boy as long as possible, but he pushed himself away from her grasp. "Ok." He said before rushing into the castle.

"Come now." Mrs. Potts said. "Let get Belle settled in."

Belle looked at Adam, who gestured that she should follow Mrs. Potts. She felt a little sad that Adam wasn't going to take her into his castle, but she did as he said and followed Mrs. Potts.

The inside of the castle was just as beautiful. Mrs. Potts gave her a quick tour but explained that Adam would be giving her the grand tour the castle. On the way up to Belle's room, they passed what looked to be the living room, but Mrs. Potts explained that it was the Master's Den. Then as they made their way up the main staircase, Mrs. Potts told her that the master's room is in the west wing and pointed to the large doors, which led to Adams room. "You, my dear, will be staying in the east wing." She was told as they walked towards her room.

Mrs. Potts led her through the big doors to her room. The room itself was very big and the walls were a beige color with a little detail painted on. The main colors in the room were violet, green, and blue. The queen sided bed was covered in a pretty baby blue comforter and the headboard and footboard was green and blue. Over the bed was a beautiful violet canopy. The bed looked so comfy to Belle and she couldn't wait to sleep in it.

The window caught Belle's eye next. It was very big, going from the floor to the ceiling. Belle was very fond of big windows because it let in a lot of light. If Belle wanted she could let down the violet drapes so that the room could be darker if needed. Right under the window was a baby blue futon. 'What a perfect place to read.' Belle thought.

There were other things in the room that belle really didn't pay much attention too; like a beige, yellow, and green wardrobe. She turned to Mrs. Potts who was still standing behind her. She looked at Belle with a huge smile on her face, but she wasn't looking at Belle. Belle quickly jerked around to see Adam standing right behind her.

"Adam!" She shrieked and quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

She could tell that he was a little taken back from her sudden movement because he stopped smiling again. But he then came back to his senses and he smiled again.

"For you." He said handing her a single rose. "I hope you'll be comfortable in this room. How do you like it?"

"Thank you." She said accepting the rose. She turned to Mrs. Potts and asked. "Can you please put this in some water and place it in my room?"

"Certainly Belle." Mrs. Potts replied and turned away, walking out of the room with the rose.

Belle turned back to Adam and continued. "It's wonderful. I wasn't expecting any of this. The room is beautiful. Thank you."

"You're welcome." Adam said. "This room is now and forever yours."

"Oh Adam." Belle said "Thank you." She quickly put her arms around Adam's neck and hugged him for a slight second and then rushed away when she realized what she just did.

"Oh I'm sorry." She said, turning away from Adam crossing her arms. But Adam stopped her by placing his hand on her. "It's alright Belle." He said. "Now would you like to see the rest of the castle?" Belle nodded. "I know just where to start. You are going to love it."

Adam let Belle through many corridors to another set of giant doors. Adam grabs the handles and swung the doors open. Belle's eyes opened wide and gasped. It was the library.

The library was huge. "I've never seen so many books in all my life." She said.

"You like it?" Adam asked.

"It's wonderful."

"It's yours, Belle?" Adam said.

"What?" Belle said shocked. "You're giving me the library?"

"Well, yes." Said Adam. Belle let out a little scream and Adam spoke again. "If you say with me in the castle."

"Adam I don't know what to say. This is all happening so sudden. I…"

"This is a library. Don't you people know about piece and quiet in a library? I should…" someone standing by one of the shelves said but suddenly stopped talking.

This person wasn't looking at Adam, they were looking right at Belle. The look of shock on their face gave Belle the shivers.

This person was a male. He looked like he was the same age as Belle. He was tall. His face was heart shaped and he had a prominent jaw. His hair is cut short and his dark brown hair was spiked up slightly. Not the typical French man, whose hair was long and tied back or was a wig. This man was different from any other man Belle had seen. He looked slightly familiar but she didn't know from where. But she liked the look of him.

"Belle?" He said.

This caught her by surprise. She took a step back and felt Adam place his hand on her shoulder. She felt better knowing that Adam was there. But who is this person and how did he know her. She could tell that he felt ashamed when his huge smile transformed into a frown.

"I suppose you don't remember me. We were only children when you left." He said. "I remember how your mother would teach us how to horseback ride and your father took us to the lake every summer until you left." He paused and cleared his throat before continuing. "But that was a long time ago."

Belle thought long and hard.

"Davor?" She asked


Who is Davor and what how will he affect Belle and Adam's relationship? Please review and if you have any theories write them in the review. I'd love to see what ya'll think.

Now there is a funny story about how I came up with the name Davor. (He is a made up character for this story) When I was on my cruise a few weeks ago, one of my waiters at dinner had the name Davor. He is from Croatia and had this amazing accent. I saw him practically everywhere and he even stopped me on one of the islands to say hi. He's such a cutie. So I wanted a unique name for this character and instantly thought of him. I know the name isn't french, but it's very exotic.

Like i said above it may be awhile until the next chapter. But again please review and let me know what you think of the story. I really appreciate those who are reviewing and staying loyal to this story. Your help helps me write even better. Thanks!

Until next time my fellow readers.
