Coras' Curse

Chapter 1

It had been 5 peaceful months in Storybrooke since the trigger was stopped. Gold had left and safely returned from Neverland with Neal in tow. Snow and David had moved to a bigger house, and were trying for another baby. Henry was doing well in school getting good grades, and that included maths. Regina is once again the mayor. Snow and Regina were able to stay in the same room without killing each other. But the biggest news of Storybrooke was that Emma had moved in with Regina and Henry.

Emma and Regina had gotten together shortly after the trigger had been stopped. The night the trigger was stopped there had been a celebration party at Grannys'. Emma had spent practically the whole night with Regina and Henry. Henry had spoken with his mothers' for about half an hour, then went to speak with his grandparents. That was the night Emma and Regina realised just how much they had in common. At the end of the party it was decided Henry would go with Regina. Emma gave Henry a goodnight hug then turned to Regina with open arms.

"Come on" Emma pressured "You to"

Regina stepped into Emmas' warmth and held her tightly.

A week after the party Regina was walking home from town hall, after trying to get her job back, when she saw Emma sat on the floor in the rain. The blonde had her knees brought up to her chest with her arms wrapped tightly around them and her head rested atop her knees. Emmas' jeans had gone sticky from the rain and her tank top had gone see through. Regina made her way over and sat on the ground besides Emma, holding an umbrella over their heads. Regina wrapped an arm around Emmas' neck and pulled her head to her shoulder.

"Regina?" Emma questioned quietly

"Yes dear" Regina answered softly "What's going on… are you okay?"

"No" Emma squeaked

"you want to tell me what's wrong?"

Emma looked up at Regina for the first time then spoke "David… and M-Mary-Margaret…they don't want me"

"They said that?" Regina asked angrily, whilst pulling Emma closer

"They… want to replace me… they want another baby. They want to get this one right. MM wants a girl"

"Its okay" Regina soothed "they'll still be your parents"

"No" Emma sniffed "its' happened before"

"What do you mean?"

"My first family… they adopted me…but…then the mother got pregnant… a-and, they sent me away"

"That's not going to happen this time. I promise" Regina said "Come on, I'll take you back to my place, you can have a bath, relax and sleep in the guest room"

"Really?"

"Yeah, come on"

Regina stood up pulling Emma with her. The brunette wrapped her arm around Emmas' shoulders leading her home. Emma walked the whole way without removing her head from Reginas' shoulder.

"Knew it" Ruby whispered to herself seeing Emma and Regina attached to the other and entering the mansion.

After her bath (and talk with Regina) Emma was feeling much better, so she headed downstairs where Regina was just saying goodnight to Henry.

"Night mom" Henry said hugging his adoptive mother, he then turned and did the same to his birth mother.

"Feeling better?" Regina asked

"Much. Thank you"

"That's okay" Regina smiled. "Remember they love you, they care about you… and so does Henry"

"If you say so" Emma shrugged

"I know so… besides you saved them from… well… me"

"Don't say that"

"It's true… if it weren't for you… Henry wouldn't have been born and I would never be able to love again" Regina said placing her hand atop Emmas' knee.

"And if it weren't for you… Henry wouldn't have been born" Emma pointed out "But you're different now, because of Henry. I mean would you have thought all those years ago, you'd be looking after Snow Whites' daughter?"

"No" Regina said squeezing Emmas' knee "I'm an evil witch"

Emma used her finger to lift Reginas' chin and lock eyes with the former Queen. "You are not evil… you're Regina… a mother, who loves her son more than anything… that's how I see you. You just have a really strong heart" Emma said placing her hand over Reginas' heart "And that's not necessarily a bad thing"

Their faces were only inches apart by this point, and they both moved in at the same time to capture the others lips.

Present day

Henry had been spending the day with his grandparents, which mainly consisted on teaching him how to ride a horse. And David was to be dropping him of after dinner.

Once they reached the mansion, Henry bounced out of the truck excited and used his key to enter. Hesitantly, David followed him into the mansion, and in to the dining room.

"Hi Henry" Regina smiled "How was your day"

"Great" Henry said

Emma and Regina both took a bite of their untouched food when they began to feel a tingling sensation. Soon after they were surrounded by purple smoke.
