Grace was walking home from the library holding her books she got from the nice Belle Lady.
"Papa," She started it was so nice to say that again, her other family Paige's family allowed her to move back in with her father and she couldn't be more thrilled. She would finally have her Papa back and hopefully her father would be happy with Belle. Grace had to plan this out she had no idea how.. maybe her friends could help her? She decided to start small.
"What do you think of Belle?" She asked him. "I think she is pretty and smart.." Grace told him watching his eyes look at her with a bit of surprise.

And a look of surprise it was! "What do I think of...?" Jefferson gave a chuckle then. "My Saving Grace, always making friends like her mama.." He ruffled her hair. "Well Grace, I rather enjoy Miss Belle's company too. And the two of you appear to have lots in common."

"We do?" She questioned Grace thought about that for a moment she did love to read but that wasn't what she was thinking about when she asked her father that question.
"I am glad you saved her, I bet she was sad before you came." Grace told him.

"Aye, you both do. Both love stories clearly" he winked to her. "And friendly and smiling" Jefferson added. "From knowing her only bits and pieces before," he continued. "You know, I would believe she was sad being trapped in that cell. I know for a given fact, that the Psych Ward wasn't a fun place to spend life."

Grace smiled she liked being compared to Belle. "How could she be happy Papa with no sunshine or even a book to read. What a dull life."
"I think you should try to get to know her better. Don't you? I bet she tells good stories like you too!" She said. holding his hand, this was perfect being with her father again made her happier then she could remember being in a long time.

"Of course, that would be wonderful.. but I'd rather you happy Papa. Do you think Belle would make you happy?" Well that came right out, Grace thought she was going to be secretive about it but then she was always honest with her father.
"I mean.. " She tried again. "As a friend?" She tried Yeah her father would see right though that.

Her eagerness made Jefferson chuckle. "My sweet Saving Grace" he said with loving affection. "Simply having you back in my life makes me happy.... and we've been perfectly fine simply you and I for 10 of you years. But, I know as you get older, you'll need a mama-figure too..." he said quietly.

Oh, Papa I'd be happy with just us too. I wonder if you would be happier with someone? Well we could invite her out for ice cream...I bet she would like that after being locked up all that time. Don't you?"
Grace was happy now that she had her Papa back she just wanted him to be as well. She would do anything to see him happy.

"Aye" replied. "I think Belle would love a chance to try ice cream." He then thought over Grace's comment. "Love..." he stopped walking. "you know...I've gone ten years without ever falling in love. Well... 38 if you count the years 'frozen' in time in the curse....wow..." he whispered the last word in disbelief. "But...your mama...she was my True love...."

"Do you think you could love again? I mean is it possible" I often wondered.. once you find true love and it leaves you can you find love again?" She asked him her question was beyond her years but she asked it anyway.
"I only wish you to be happy Papa.. to find someone again.. " She told him taking his hand.
"Will you tell me the story of you and Mother someday Papa?" She asked him.

"Do I think I could...?" He stopped then. His Grace was very wise -before-her-time for one so young.... "Yes, Grace...I suppose it'd be possible to fall in love again..."

He took her hand and gave her fingers a kiss. "Then I will give it a try. But my Saving Grace, don't push it, alright? Let things happen...naturally, okay?"
