Yeah, if you look at Belle's relationships with the other mains (not named Rumple) and the conversations she's had with them, I would say that Hook is her closest "friend" out of the 7. Not sure who would even come in second because I can't recall her having a real convo with anyone else but Zelena in 5B when she went for help with the baby. And I think Rumple himself knows this - he impersonated Hook in 4B to get close to her.

But idk if Belle is thinking this hiding thing through because Rumple should have a house full of her stuff. Is she also going to make sure that Emma places an anti-locator spell over her new living space?
