show me what i'm looking for {angelique}

[Jefferson]

holding conflicting realities in

Like was a funny thing. For the longest time, he had wanted nothing more than to return to the Enchanted Forest and have a new story written for him and Grace. One that didn't involve abandonment or false memories. He had thought this was the only way to be truly happy. But things had changed when he had found her, and embraced her. They'd been together and he felt . . . complete. Little did he know that this was not the only happy ending awaiting him in Storybrooke. He had met a lovely young woman -- though their first meeting had been a little tense. But since then, he had gotten to know her more and found himself quite enthralled by her. He was not one to frivolously date, nor one to trivialize a relationship. No one would ever be able to replace Grace's mother. At the same time, being in her company felt . . . right. And he wished to explore that rather than let his fear of losing someone else he cared about cloud his judgment. He had gotten to know her far more than he had allowed her to get to know him. He knew he was not an easy person to deal with, and that his mental state was questionable . . . but she never made him feel, mad. Now that they were back in the Enchanted Forest -- thanks to Pan's curse -- he knew it was time to change this. While the others would take back the kingdom, Jefferson wanted to show Angelique his home. Where he came from. Give her some insight into the life he lived here. They had made camp for the night and most all were sleeping, including his Grace. This would be a good opportunity to speak to Angelique to see what her plans were now that they were back in their initial home. He easily found her and approached her with a small smile. "Glad to be back?" He asked, a hint of sarcasm in his voice though perhaps she was happy to have returned here. To him, it didn't matter where he was as long as he had his daughter . . . and now it seemed, as long as he had Angelique as well. Perhaps that was a bit forward, but he couldn't deny what he felt in his heart. Even if it was far too early to really express any of it. He had been in love twice before and knew what it felt like. Which was why he knew quite well, that he was on the path of finding love once again.

Pan.. That little brat. Angelique liked kids and all, but that little creep brought her back to the place that she did not want to be in! It could have been worse, she supposed. Her mother could know where to find her.. And at least now she had Marguerite.. and then there was also the fact that she and Jefferson had been becoming extremely close. She enjoyed the time they were spending together, and he seemed to be as well. When they first met, things were a little..tense.. and then during their first date, it was a little awkward. The two of them clearly didn't have much experience in matters of the heart.

Since they were back in the Enchanted Forest, Jefferson wanted to show her his home. She would have offered the same, but honestly, she had no home there anymore. Even if she did, she wouldn't ever want to go back to that dark, awful place.  As everyone else slept, Angelique and Jefferson remained awake, and sitting near the fire, talking. It was nice.. even though the two of them had been a bit quiet - in a state of reflection on Angelique's part - until now. His question made her laugh a little, and she shook her head. "Not one bit." She admitted. "Storybrooke was a gift.. and now we're back here where I started. We're too close to my old life.. and.. I never wanted to be here again." she took a deep breath, and sighed. "Sorry.. I'm rambling." She lightly nudged his arm with her own, and she gently bit her lip. "What about you? Are you glad to be back? Especially now that you can be here with Grace?"

He listened to Angelique speak about her feelings regarding this place. For some, well many, the curse that had initially taken them to Storybrooke had been to prevent anyone from getting their happy endings -- and a way for Regina to get hers. Yet for some, it seemed to be the opposite. If there was one thing Jefferson could say, it was that Storybrooke had certainly turned into a place of new beginnings for everyone; second chances and fresh starts. That was what he had been given with Grace. He gave a small smile as she apologized for rambling. He wasn't entirely sure what he could say to make it better since she clearly had a lot of painful history in the Enchanted Forest. She then asked if he was glad to be back, particularly since he was with Grace. "Whether we're here or in Storybrooke, as long as I'm with her, I'm happy." It didn't matter where they were, so long as they were together. That was the main thing. He could have built a life in Storybrooke with his daughter. Or he could build one here. The most important thing, was that they stay together for wherever Grace was, was where his home was . . . and you know what they say, home is where the heart is. "At least you have your sister here," he said, trying to help her find a positive. "You had a fresh start in Storybrooke with each other. Maybe you can find that here now as well." He could only assume as much, for his situation with Grace was similar. After having been seperated for so long, they were now reunited. "Where do you plan to go?" He questioned, wondering if she was going to join the others in the fight to take back the kingdom and protect it.

Angelique thought the relationship between Jefferson and Grace was beautiful. She wished that her father had a chance to live, and maybe she would have had something similar with him.. But alas, her mother cared for money more than she cared about human lives or the happiness of her children. Jefferson though.. he was kind, and  nurturing. He was the perfect father.. The perfect man. She quickly pulled herself out of her dreamy thoughts when she realized he had asked her a question. It registered, but it took a moment for her to answer. "I...I really have no idea where i'm going to go, actually." She pursed her lips. "I never really had a home. I guess I could go wander around to find a castle to work in again since that's what I did when I ran away.. But I feel like here.. Marguerite is going to be the same person she used to be." 

It was easy to go back in to the lifestyle she'd been in. A pampered lady, being groomed to be a princess, and one day, a queen. "She had always sought to be royalty. That's why she was always the apple of my mother's eye." That and her flowing golden hair. Angelique loved her own locks, personally, but no one wanted red headed children. Everyone wanted fair skin, and dark or golden hair. She was the perfect one, and now that she was back in the  Enchanted Forest, it was likely that she'd try to win a title once more. "I fear that I have no one in this world, like you have Grace. But..I'm very happy for you." She leaned in close, and gave him a gentle kiss upon his cheek. "I hope you stay happy, Jefferson..You deserve all of the happiness, and love.. in the world."  She would stay with him... but she didn't want to read too deeply in to their...relationship. 

So far it was a little slow going, but she did care very deeply for him.. Even though she was far too awkward to voice her feelings.
