“I don’t know anything about any dagger” Belle told the stranger honestly. “Would you like some tea? Rumplestiltskin should be back soon if you wish to stay to speak to him”
“What’s your name?” John Smith asked.
“Belle”
“Aahhhh” John Smith gave her a knowing look accompanied with a grin.
“What?” Belle asked puzzled. “What’s so funny?”
“Nothing.” The strange man said. “I’m just witnessing the beginnings of a tale as old as time. Please tell Rumplestiltskin, his Doctor is looking for him when he returns”. John Smith began to leave.
“His doctor? Is he sick?” Belle asked the man’s retreating back, a note of concern present in her voice.
The Doctor turned back to face the beauty. “Not at all. It was nice meeting you Belle”.
