Invisible (SQ)
A/N: Hello everyone, this little story sort of came to me in my dream last night. I tried to turn the little movie I made in my head into words for you guys. I've never written anything before, so I hope it's not all bad. If you hate it please let me know, if you love it or just like it share your thoughts as well.
This story is not set in any particular time of OUAT.
Thoughts of the characters are in italics.
I don't own OUAT or the characters I'm borrowing :)
p.s. My first language is not English, it's Dutch so if I make a grammar or spelling mistake I apologize, I try my best not to.
Emma let out a deep sigh, while she was sitting at Mary Margarets breakfast bar drinking a cup of hot chocolate with cinnamon and whipped cream. She loved how the cup of the delicious brown liquid warmed her hands and how the warmth coursed the rest of her body.
Today was a cold winters day in the beginning of February. Before sighing so loud Emma was thinking of another brown something that made her feel warm inside. "Regina's eyes, wait a minute…why am I thinking of Regina's warm, beautiful, brown eyes?"
After letting out the sigh and before Emma could analyse her thoughts she heard someone say "Is everything alright Emma? You have been staring in the same direction for nearly ten minutes and now you're sighing quite loudly. Is there something on you mind? I can't imagine the toaster is so interesting to look at." Mary-Margaret said.
"Huh?, no I suppose not." "What?" "I suppose the toaster isn't that interesting to look at".
Mary-Margaret looked a little confused at this answer to her question, so she asked her daughter again "is there something wrong Emma?" "No, why would there be? Everything is great! It's winter, a little cold but dry outside, there's snow, Henry's building a snowman outside with David, I have this nice cup of hot chocolate…everything is just perfect."
Snow could see in Emma's eyes that this probably wasn't the whole truth but she decided to let it slide for now. If Emma wanted to tell her what was on her mind she would have told her. Perhaps her daughter would confide in her later so she decided not to push.
"What do you say we join your father and Henry outside?" "Okay mom, let's go! I say we will ambush them while they are working on their snowman and start a snowball fight! "Yes, getting some fresh air will clear my mind".
After a lovely afternoon of spending time with her family and winning the snowball fight against David and Henry, Emma felt much better.
"Ma, me and grandpa have decided that since you and grandma cheated during the snowball fight, you can no longer claim victory." Emma turned around to see Henry entering the living room while taking of his coat, hat, scarf and gloves. She tried to look shocked and threw a hand over her heart while asking "whatever gave you the idea that your grandma and I would cheat?"
"Well, not so much grandma as you, I know you used magic during the battle. You couldn't possibly create so many snowball in so little time! You were like a machine out there, they just kept coming, we didn't stand a chance!" Looking at Henry while he was giving his little speech made Emma smirk a little. The beginning of a smile on her face didn't go unnoticed by her son and so he screamed "See, I was right, you did cheat! Grandpa, Grandpa, ma is a cheater, Henry started yelling to David as he came up the stairs to enter the apartment as well, so we didn't lose after all.
"Ma, I hear by disqualify you and grandma for this round of snowball fighting". Emma glared at her son and was about to make a comment when she heard Snow saying "Don't be mad at Henry for figuring out our little secret." He's right we cheated and so it's only fair we get disqualified. Though it wasn't my choice to cheat, Mary-Margaret said while giving Emma a slightly disapproving look.
"Alright, alright, Emma caved." So I used a little magic, don't be so dramatic over it and gang up on me. She gave everyone in the room a glare. "Okay, now that's settled let's adjust our score board, shall we", David said.
David walked past Henry towards a small blackboard that was hanging on a wall in the living room. The board read: snowball fight scores. Written in crayon on the left side of the board there stood 'TEAM SNOW & EMMA 3', while on the right side it said 'TEAM DAVID & HENRY' 3. David took the crayon in his hands and erased the 3 on the right side and put down a 4 in it's place while smiling. "Looks like we're leading now Henry", Henry walked over to David and gave him a high five before he turned around again and smiled deviously towards his mother. "That's what you get for cheating ma, let this be a lesson".
Emma opened her mouth to say something but before she had the chance Henry went up the stairs while stating he was going to pack his bag because it was almost time for Emma to bring him home to Regina for her weekend with him.
She turned on her heel while muttering something about "who is the parent and who is the child here….learning lessons" and lets out a huff. Mary-Margaret just couldn't help herself and laugh at that and soon David joined her. Emma just tried to ignore them and let herself plop down on the couch and in an instant she was back to her thoughts, back to Regina…
So, this is where my dream ended or better said when I woke up. Should I try to make a multi-chapter story of this or leave it as it is? What do you think? I have some ideas floating in that brain of mine so it is an option. If I continue the title of this story is going to make sense as well.
Rating of this story is K+ for now, but it could become T or even M rated in the future (not sure about that though) but you'll be warned of course.
Thanks for reading! And let me know what you think in the review section if you will :)
