[ By now Rumpelstiltskin is questioning Milah. Anger written clear across his face. He doesn't have time to answer Claire or really the energy. Because I never loved you. He knows the moment she says it that she'll get her answer. His hand surges outward and thrusts into Milah's chest. The younger him can only yell and move forward a few steps before the Dark One flings him back. Pinning him with ropes and pulleys before removing her heart.
When the younger him gets free he scrambles to catch the body of his falling love. Fear and grieve already overtaking his expression. Whispered words from Milah. I love you. Before her eyes shut. Watching it again like this doesn't reduce the ache in his chest. He should have done more. All these years later. ]
