Couldn't Leave You
Neal has been in the enchanted forest for 1 month and has found no way of getting home. His shot wound has healed thanks to water from Lake Nostos. Aurora and Phillip were in the tent next to Neals and Mulan was standing watch.

It was around 1pm when Neal and Mulan started to go and look for food. They came to the beach when they saw something. "Look" Mulan said. It looked like there was someone on the sand unconscious. They started to run up to them when Neal saw who it was. He knelt next to them and said "Emma?" There she was lying on the sand. She had a cut lip and a small bruise on her cheek.

Mulan and Neal took her back to camp. "Is that Emma?" Aurora said
"Yeah we found her on the beach" Mulan said as she and Neal settled her down.
"Is she going to be ok?"
"She's going to be fine." Neal said 'I hope' Neal thought.

It had been two hours since Emma was found and Neal hasn't left her side. Now and again she would move but only slightly. When he was about to move to go and get some water
"Neal..."
Emma started to open her eyes. Neal then rushed to her and knelt next to her.
"Emma?"
"Neal?" When Emma opened her eyes she couldn't believe what she was seeing.
"Neal!" She then threw her arms around Neal's neck. "You're ok"
"Emma what happened to you?"
"Well..."

Flashback...
"Mom!" Henry yelled as he ran to her.
"Henry!" Henry threw his arm round her.
"You're ok Henry don't worry."
Tamara then came out of the shadows with Greg and a gun.
"You're not going anywhere." Tamara said
Emma then lead Henry to her parents and said "Watch Henry for me."
When Tamara was about to say something Emma punched her in the face making Tamara fall to the ground. Greg was about to go for her when David stopped him be jumping on him. When Emma was about to go for Tamara she saw a bag with labelled 'beans'. Tamara then punched Emma right in the face giving her a cut lip and bruise. She was about to get a bean out when she realised it wasn't there.
"Looking for this?" Emma asked.
Then Emma took a bean out and threw in on the ground. Suddenly a big green hole appeared.
"Look after Henry!" Emma shouted before jumping into the hole.

Finishing the story Neal was just in shock.
"You did all of that just to come and look for me?" Neal asked.
"Well after finding Henry and a bag of beans I just had a feeling you was still alive." Emma said with tears in her eyes. Neal saw this and brought her into a hug.

After a while Mulan, Aurora and Philip came round to check on Emma.
"Emma you're awake" Aurora said
"Yeah I am listen I have some beans left so I was hoping to get out of here soon" Emma really wanted to get home and tell her parents she was ok and Henry his father was alive.

A while later Emma and Neal were ready to go home.
"Thanks for everything" Neal said to the others.
"No worries Neal" Philip said.
Emma and Neal looked into each other's eyes and held their hands.
"Ready?" Neal asked
Emma to a bean and threw it to the ground to have it open a portal. "Let's go home." They then jumped in.

Back at Mary-Margret and David's place they where all sitting around anxiously for Emma to walk through that door.
"When do you think she will be back?" Henry asked.
"I don't know sweetheart, but hopefully soon.
Just that minuet Emma walked through the door. Henry was about to run up to her when Emma held up her hand to tell him to wait. Just then Neal walked in. Henry ran up to him.
"Dad!" Henry threw his arms round his father while Emma wrapped her arms round her parents.
Xxxxxx
Later that night Neal and Emma where in her room while her parents and Henry were at Granny's dinner.
"Emma I want to say something. Before I fell into the portal I meant what I said that I love you." Neal wasn't sure if he just said the right thing until Emma said something.
"I meant what I said as well that I love you."
At that moment Neal crashed his lips onto Emma's. Emma didn't want to let go of Neal. After a while Neal let go and looked at her.
"I love you"
"I love you to Neal"
And after that they never let go of each other again.
