oh she's got a way with the boys in the placeTREAT 'EM LIKE THEY DON'T STAND A CHANCE- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Regina be damned.
If she wanted to have lunch with Gold in the middle of the day, she was going to do it, by gods. However, advertizing so blatantly that she was pregnant, with the stack of magazines Ruby had gotten her (where in the world did she get these??) was another thing. But, again, Regina be damned. She'd already caused enough trouble for her, swiss cheese memories and all, and she wasn't going to take her bullying any more. She was going to live her life, in this town, how she liked, and she wasn't going to walk on egg shells around the stupid mayor who couldn't keep her anger and rage in check.
So here she was, sipping tea and nursing on one of Granny's specialty grilled cheeses, flipping through the magazine. Most of them held first-time-mother advice, but this one, this one caught her attention.
Baby Names.
It was a hard choice. Would Gold go for her paying homage to his son --- no, it's not like he was dead, he was just avoiding them with all his life. She hoped maybe one day, she could sit down and talk with him. Maybe help him through his troubles, help him see what she sees in his father. Who knows.
Regardless, she set to the task of reading the article. What would they name the baby?

His whole plan was screwed up. First, he tried to stop Belle from becoming the target of Regina’s attempt to control him. Then, her memories were screwed up because of the unpredictability of magic in this land. And now, their relationship was pretty much out in the open and Belle was pregnant. He hoped that… that she would forgive him when the curse broke and he was able to bring back all of her memories with magic. He could only hope. Even if they had slept in the same bed together, it wasn’t like they were… there yet. He was only there to help stop her nightmares, and his presence seemed to help. The instant she didn’t want him there with her, he would leave her be.
Like the wonderful woman that she was, she had suggested lunch at Granny’s today, and of course, Gold agreed. If Regina saw them, he would show her off to the witch. He would protect her with every ounce that he had in him. He wouldn’t let her down, he wouldn’t want her to be his weakness when she was his strength.
When Gold walked into the diner, he noticed that both Granny, Ruby and a couple of the patrons of the diner all glance over at him then at Belle. Of course, it wasn’t much of a secret now, was it? Not after the newspaper, and the news about how Belle had gone crazy and seemed to have forgotten that she was pregnant.
Ignoring the looks, Gold slowly walked over to where Belle was sitting, kissed her on the cheek, and sat next to her. “Hey sweet heart.” He noticed the magazine that she had. “What are you looking at?” He didn’t get a great view without looking like he was snooping, so he decided he’d ask before he looked.

oh she's got a way with the boys in the placeTREAT 'EM LIKE THEY DON'T STAND A CHANCE- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - She gave him a brilliant smile when he sat next to her. It was something about they way he slid in next to her on the seat, shielded her from the rest of the diner. Protected. But it was more than that. Normally he would sit across from her, but today, today seemed different. She slid towards the window a little to give him more room, but not enough to separate their arms or legs from rubbing against each other as they moved. She could feel the eyes of the diner on her, and knew she was glowing - pregnant women tended to do that when they were happy. She rested her head against his shoulder, "oh, Ruby gave me this. It's supposed to help with picking out names for the baby."
Hm. That was strange, the word was just coming to here more easily than late. It was comforting, that her mind was finally accepting what her heart had accepted awhile ago. But, something's still felt missing. Broken. She had to chalk it up to the fact that Gold was being guarded in his interactions during the relationship, sometime treating her as someone else than who she really was to him; which, technically was true, but wasn't? Oh, that didn't make sense it at all. But, whatever. She would deal with it, since she had this feeling that eventually things would fix itself on its own.

He wasn’t sure what was different today. Perhaps he was feeling more protective over Belle because of the looks, or the fact that their relationship was pretty much, though no completely, out in the open. But at the same time, it wasn’t the same. He couldn’t talk about the snowball fight or when he caught her a couple days later decorating the castle, despite his wishes to not celebrate the stupid holiday. Even now he would probably only celebrate it, if the town ever got that far in the future before Emma Swan left, because she wanted to and he enjoyed watching her smile. But his point in all of this was, it wasn’t the same as it used to be, and it was his fault. Everything was his fault, including her swiss cheese memories.
“Oh?” He stopped for a moment and tried to stop the panicking in his head that occurred the instant she said the word ‘baby’, still not quite used to the fact that he was going to be a father again. He couldn’t change it, and he had been forcing the panic down every time they talked about it. He was determined to be a good father this time around, but he had already made mistakes. He would try, he would try as hard as he could to be a good father and maybe he would turn out to be an okay father in the end. "Have you found a name you like yet?"

She had been flipping through the magazine for ten minutes now, but nothing stood out. It was all too... "Modern." She said aloud, shaking her head. "All these names are... too modern, too of this word. Foreign. I want... I want something from our world." She looked at Gold, "our old lives. I want to be able to remember it... I would if could remember it. What do you think would be good?"

She was asking him? After his last baby name choice was Baelfire? Then again, Baelfire was a wonderful name, if he were to say himself. Something from their world? The Enchanted Forest. He thought for a moment looking from the magazine to Belle and he rest his head on her slightly.
He hadn’t even considered having a baby, let alone what to name a baby since he had Bae. Not even imagining having another baby at any point, never having anyone he wanted to have a baby with… and really he wanted this baby. If it had come a little later than it was coming, a couple years maybe, he probably would have been a lot more prepared.
“Me? I…” He gave it a little bit of thought running through names he had heard throughout his years. “For a boy… There’s… Ezekiel or… Jack, maybe. And for a girl there’s… Leucia or Jaqueline… or even Isabelle.”

His ideas were much better than these, these modern names. She turned her head and pressed a kiss to his head, settling against him. Granny came by setting down two cheese burgers with friend and two sweet teas and left again, without a word.
"I went ahead and ordered while I was waiting. You don't mind, do you?"
She picked up one of the other magazines, one with first time mother advice -- she doubted she needed it, but for she was always up for knowledge.

Well at least she didn’t think his names were stupid. He wasn’t good at this whole baby name thing. He was hoping she would fall in love with a name, or had a name in mind already, but at least she wasn’t laughing at his suggestions.
Then the food arrived and he grinned, picking up the ketchup bottle and putting some on his burger and on his plate for his fries. Yes, he liked ketchup, thank you very much. Even if that kid had sort of ruined his meal not too long after he’d been freed from the curse himself. “Of course not, sweet heart.”

It was full of the same old stuff, and deciding she had put enough thought into her oncoming pregnancy, she closed it and set it aside. She was eating her fries, gazing at Gold. He was going to be the father of this baby. She had been having daydreams of them taking walks in the park, pushing a stroller, but then they got mixed with visions of being in a carriage, and a man with a skin of gold looking over them with a smile. And every time the vision brought her to tears. She sniffed suddenly and turned away. Was she already suffering from mood swings?
No. Her memories were messing with her again, making her long for a life that was no longer possible, no longer existing. They were here in storybrooke. They werent... they were no longer a man of gold and his maid living in a dark castle in the middle of some ...forest. She took a deep breath and took a bite of the cheeseburger, which she silently mulled over the names he had given her. After a moment, she spoke.
"I like Jaqueline, and, if it's a boy, Ezekiel," she tested each name in her head with his last name, and it brought a smile to her lips too, and her eyes shone and sparkled like a meteor shower was happening before her eyes.

He chuckled when she dipped her fries in his ketchup, though he didn’t say anything. Normally he would mind, and might end up beating up a kid who did that, but he didn’t mind at all when she did it. It was really cute, Gold thought to himself, especially that little cheeky smile she had worn afterwards.
Gold noticed her immediate change, as if there was something inside her head that was making her cry. However, instead of using words immediately, he turned her head back to him, and he placed a small, gentle kiss on her lips, looking at her with the most loving of eyes. “It’s going to be alright.” He hadn’t really been very physical with this relationship, their kisses limited to that one that they had shared that first night. And he hoped he wasn’t too forward either, hoping that the kiss would comfort her.
Gold smiled when she mentioned the names. “You like them?” He was almost surprised, believing that he was a terrible picker of names. Jaqueline Gold. Ezekiel Gold. Or would it be Jaqueline French and Ezekiel French? He wasn’t sure.

Let me know if anything else comes to mind, too, however, they need middle names, too."
She laughed lightly, and took interest in her dinner once more. The soft kiss he had laid on her early had her stomach fluttering pleasantly, leaving her feeling like... an innocent young maiden who was experiencing her first love, all over again. It was reminder her of times before Storybrooke, times she didn't completely remember but it was a memory. She pressed a kiss to his lips, finding it not at all awkward at all. "I know it's going to be all right... I have you."

Gold nodded and leaned against her slightly, a hand dropping to her leg, slowly stroking her hoping it was soothing. “I will, I promise.” Even though he was sure that he was terrible at giving names. Maybe if he actually gave some thought to the names, well more than he had already.
Good. She didn’t feel awkward about it. Gold was worried, as he always had been worried about pretty much everything that he did. He was so guarded, so worried, so… scared that he would do something wrong. Every decision he seemed to make was a wrong one, he was so worried about making another wrong one. “And I’ll be with you forever. As long as you want me with you.”
