Emma put on a black tight long sleeve shirt, black skinny jeans and her red leather jacket. She put on her glasses and pulled her hair into a pony tail. Her son Henry bounded up to her room.
"Henry! Morning baby. Momma has to take you to school today."
"Yay!" He said. She smiled.
"Come on." He lead him to his dinosaur room and pulled a shirt out. She put a grey long sleeve shirt ok him and a green shirt sleeve dinosaur shirt over that. She put Jeans on him and his shoes.
She packed a bag for him." Ready?"
He nodded. She smiled and took his hand. She was happy the school aloud this. She led him to her yellow bug and strapped him in. She started the car and drove to school. Emma was early as always.
She picked up her young son and grabbed his bag and hers. She walked into her first class.
She sat in the front.
Her teacher walked over." I expect your son will not be a hard time."
"No ma'am." She murmured. Henry sat next to his mother and pulled out his crayons and his sketch pad.
He started to color as class started. Emma did her work.
Mrs. Mills passed out some tests. Emma sighed when she got to a hard question. Henry poked her and smiled. She smiled and turned to her work.
Emma sat in the library with Henry. He was reading his book. Emma was studying.
"Momma? How old are you?" Her four year old son asked.
"20." She answered.
"So you were 16 when you had me?" He asked.
"Yep." She said popping the p and working.
"Is that the normal age of a person to have a baby?" He asked.
"Nope." She said popping the p once more. He sighed.
She looked at him.
"Henry. Would you like to go with me and ask my teacher a question?"
He nodded. She took his hand.
Emma ducked into her teachers class.
"Mrs. Mills?" Emma said in a whisper.
"Spit it out." Regina snapped.
Emma walked in." Ok." She set Henry in a chair." I um..."
"Not Lolly gag. Spit it out."
"I can't come to school tomorrow. I can only bring Henry to school once a week and my baby sitter disappeared."
"I expect you'll make up the work you missed and still turn it on time."
"Yes ma'am." Emma said.
She hurried out with Henry and rushed him to her car.
"Momma why are you so scared of her?" He asked as Emma drove.
"No reason Henry. I'm jumpy around people." Emma said. She pulled into granny's parking lot. She got him out. She gasped. Mrs. Mills was there.
She sat at a booth and Henry sat across from her.
"Henry what would you like to eat?"
"Nothing!" He yelled crossing his arms. She sighed. He was in a mood.
"Henry do not yell." She said in a stern voice.
"You can't tell me what to do!" Henry yelled.
Emma reached over and took his wrist." You will sit here and no talking until I say otherwise I'll have to take you outside and we will not come back. Do you understand?"
He pulled away and bolted out the door.
Emma stood up and ran after him. She nearly ran into Regina.
"Why are you running?" Regina asked.
"Move!" She said she moved passed her teacher and saw Henry run into the road. She pulled him out of the road right as a car came. Emma held him and laid on the sidewalk.
"Henry why would you do that?" She panted.
"You told me that we wouldn't be coming back so I left."
She sighed and up. He sat on her lap. Mrs. Mills walked over.
"Sorry Mrs. Mills. I didn't mean to push you." Emma said.
"It's fine dear." She knelt beside Henry." If you do that to your mother again then you could get taken away. Do you want that?"
He clung to Emma and shook his head.
Regina stood up." Don't do that again."
Emma stood up and took Henry to the car. She strapped him in and drove home. She got him out and fed him. She drew him a bath. She got him washed and set him to bed. "Goodnight dear." She got a shower and collapsed on her bed. She fell asleep instantly.
She woke her head pounding. She ran to the bathroom and got sick.
She sighed as she heard Henry wake. She stood up and walked to his room." Dear. Momma is going to take you to school for a second so I get get my homework."
She got him and herself dressed.
Emma walked into the building. She held Henry.Emma walked into her class.
"You're very early." Mrs. Mills said.
"I came to get my work." Emma said. Henry touched her cheek
"Momma you're very warm."
"Shhh." She said.
Regina handed emma the work.
Emma took it.
Regina frowned." Emma should you be watching you child? He could get sick with you sick."
"I have no other person to watch him but thank you for your concern."
Regina nodded. Emma walked out and got in the car and drove home.
Emma sat in the couch and sighed." Henry I'm going to close my eyes for a second ok?"
She saw him nod.
Regina walked in and saw Henry.
"Momma won't wake up. It's been four hours." He said.
Regina set her purse down and followed Henry to the couch.
"Do you have a thermometer?" Regina asked.
He ran and grabbed on.
Regina wiped it across Emma's forehead." 107.2." Regina shook Emma awake.
"Hello. Dear you have a fever. I'm going to take you to the doctor can you stand?" Emma sat up with help.
"I-I didn't mean t-to fall asleep f-for so long." She said.
"It's ok dear. Your son understands." Regina said helping emma stand. She set Emma in her car and put Henry into Roland car seat.
