A secret hideaway
Claire asked for a oneshot of Snow and Charming abandoning their responsibilities and staying in a secret garden for a day.
They knew they shouldn't be here, but that was part of the fun.
Most of the palace and it's grounds was kept by servants. Most. There was one garden hidden away with only a secret passage as an entry that only the royals themselves knew about. Snow had been shown this garden at eight and had been keeping the secret since then. She'd shared many happy memories here with both of her parents and even Regina, and now she was able to share it with Charming.
The royal pressures had been building for some time now. Various people waving things for them to sign in their faces, others demanding boring meetings and so the list went on. Today, Snow and Charming decided they were playing hooky. They were just going to be like a normal married couple and spend the day just with each other. The secret garden was the only place they could go without eventually being found. They spent their day among the tall wild grass that grew past their knees. The beautiful lavender flowers with their sweet herbal smell. The pear and cherry trees were scattered around the little safe haven, and Snow and Charming had used their fruits to keep their hunger at bay.
Nobody would hear their moans of passion here. Nobody would be able to stumble in accidentally on their expression of love to each other among the daisies. No, here they were free; at least for a short while.
