Notes: Betaread by the fabulous lanalucy.


Belle sat at the counter at Granny’s diner. She waited for her lunch while Ruby kept her company, talking animatedly about the previous night where she ran through Storybrook’s woods in her wolf form.



“Belle, are you even listening?“ her friend asked, her tone annoyed. 



“What?“ Belle broke her gaze away from Granny, who worked in the kitchen. “I’m sorry, I was… a little lost in reverie.“ She took a long sip of her iced tea.



“Yeah, I noticed. It seems to happen a lot lately,“ Ruby huffed. “I didn’t mean to bore you.“ She started to get up.



Belle turned on her barstool to get Granny out of her line of sight and focused her gaze on Ruby instead. “You don’t bore me. I’m all ears now, please continue.“ She gave Ruby her sweetest smile. It worked.



Sometime later Granny came around the counter and passed Belle a bag with her lunch. “Here you go, sweetheart,“ Granny said, patting Belle’s hand.



“Thank you.“ Belle casted her eyes downward. Heat spread across her face; she knew she was blushing furiously. The way Granny said sweetheart made her stomach tingle. Then Granny made it even worse by leaning in and pressing a kiss to Belle’s cheek. 



“See you tomorrow, sweetheart.“



“Y-yes. Okay. B-bye,“ Belle stammered, before making a fast exit. It couldn’t possibly be right what she was feeling for Granny, but tomorrow Belle would be back for another round of sweet torture.

Well, this certainly leaves a lot to the imagination ;). And I haven't seen this pairing around so plus points for that!

yeah, I guess it does leave some things to imagination, but that's part of the fun, right? *gg* it was a challenge to write for this pairing, I liked that about the prompt.

Oh oh oh!

I totally didn't expect this pairing to be filled!

That was super cute. You made this work so well. Is Belle blushing because of something that has happened or something she wants to happen? Granny flirting was wonderful.

ha, I thought you might expect that your prompt wouldn't be filled - that's why I picked it and why I wanted to make it work =) it was definitely a challenge.
Well, I thought Belle was blushing because she's embarrassed... by Granny's closeness and attention. Also because she feels caught. You know what I mean? But really you can interpret it as you wish.
I happy you like what I did!
