Title: A harmony of life
Author: seren_ccd
Fandom: Once Upon a Time
Pairing/Characters: Belle/Mr Gold (Rumpelstiltskin)
Series: And west of the moon
Rating: PG-13 for mild language and sexual situations
Word Count: 11,000
Spoilers: For episode 1.12
Disclaimer: Not mine! The title comes from the classic song East of the Sun (and West of the Moon). I personally love the Billie Holiday version, but the Diana Krall one is stunning, too. I also use excerpts from Swann’s Way by Marcel Proust and And You Smiled, You Spoke, and I Believed by Walter Savage Landor. All of the towns and roadside attractions do exist and I have taken what is probably extreme license using them in this story.

I've also taken liberties with how Rumpelstiltskin became injured which I'm sure will be Jossed (Kitsis'd? Horowitz'd?) in the future.

A/N: This is the last of a three story series, the sequel to Near to the sun and Near to the moon.

Summary: Belle and Mr Gold go on a road trip. No, really. It’s very cathartic.
