[A/N: Sorry for the long wait! I had alot of things in the way and health comes first! But please enjoy!]

Killian was real pissed. Real pissed. That book had been enough to spark a flame in him and Mr. Gold was in for it today. That imp like man had made him feel rage for the last time. How dare that fool even think of his wife in such a manner? It was beyond disturbing of that old man to be having fantasies of his Belle.

He pulled in front of the pawn shop, with the look of murder written all over his face. He wasn't playing around this time. No, Killian was going to make sure that the man knew his place around Belle. He got out of the car and stalked towards the pawn shop door, his first obvious thought was to strangle the life out of Gold and then blame it on whatever drunk happened to stumble down the ally way. But he knew Belle would hate him for that, she would see past his lies and leave him.

"Mr. Jones!" Came a deep yet chipper voice. Killian turned to see the Mayor standing at the edge of the sidewalk's curb.

"Madame Mayor," Killian nodded his respect towards the woman.

"You look a bit...heated." She said pulling her gloves off.

"Look? Well maybe it was the fish I ate earlier. It gives me a bit of a belly ache, it does." He said, smirking.

"Would that fish be a slimy little bastard that seems to cause trouble?" Regina stood beside him to stare into the same shop and smile, "Listen, whatever Gold has done, leave it alone."

"Maybe It can't be left alone-"

"Does he pose a threat?" She interrupted him.

"Well yes-"

"Mr. Gold is a very tricky man, he tries to make it seem as if he has something up his sleeve," she chuckled, "When really he is only trying to get under your skin."

Killian sighed. She was right. How did he even know Belle knew about that book? It was Gold who brought it, and it may not have even been Belle's to begin with. He was playing with Killian, hoping he would come in there and beat him up, and play the poor victim for Belle, "He is a right bloody bastard.."

"That he is..." Regina joined in with the laughter.

The door chimed and as if knowing he was being talked about, Gold came out with a grin, "Well, I know my shop is pretty, dearies, but it's nothing to gawk at."

"Just talking about how much of a kind soul you are Gold," Regina said with a fake smile.

"Yes, and how much you contribute to this town," Killain smirked.

"And I suppose you two were also saying how fabulous I am and how much you would love to kiss my a-"

"Alright, I should be going," Regina said rolling her eyes as Gold just smirked.

"Well, it was good seeing you, my dear. Try to stop by more often," he smiled, "I need a bit of a drama queen to liven the place up."

Regina glared and left, making sure to say a few choice words under her breath as she did so.

"So, did you give the book to Belle?" Gold said leaning on his cane for support and still maintain his grin.

"Yeah..and she didn't like it...not one bit," He looked at the older man waiting for a reaction. He wasn't at a loss, the old man made a disheartened expression and Killian had to keep his cool, "She is a married woman Gold, she isn't like the rest of these tramps that want you for a one night stand," he said, watching the beady eyed stare from the imp like man.

Gold was about to counter back when Emma walked up to question him on yet another problem.

Killian walked away, done with it. He got in his car and slammed the door. The only person he could question over this was Belle. He needed to make sure in heart there was nothing going on in her mind for the man. He drove off towards the library and stopped on the side. His heart raced as he got out and stepped in front of the doors. People were passing in and out, yet he couldn't find it in him to open the door.

He pulled the door handle open and walked in, the smell of old and new books drifted among the air along with various perfumes and cologne. He felt his head spin from the many smells all at once. His gut felt like it was being ripped open and yet he still managed to find his way to her desk.

"Killian?" Came her sweet voice. "Baby, what are you doing here?" She said smiling, yet very confused.

"We need to talk.." Killian said, looking pale and ready to release his lunch. His nerves were getting to him, but he didn't want it to show.

"Well..is it important? I'm working." She said worried.

"Yes..It's.." He looked down. "No, just forget it, love..."

"Killian..." She stood to place a soft hand on his shoulder.

"We can talk about it at home," He regained composure and turned to kiss her. He inhaled her scent and backed away. His eyes looked sad and so misleading to his wife. He walked out before she could say anything and spun out of the parking spot and went to the bar.
