Together

Chapter 1

Tonight is the night. That's what Snow was thinking as she started walking along the corridor that her beloved Prince Charming's bed chamber is on. She can't help but smile as she thinks about Charming and how close she is to seeing him again. As she is walking down the corridor she hears a door opening behind her. She quickly hides behind a column to the side and as the footsteps come closer to her she walks around it until eventually she is looking at him. He Charming. Walking towards his room. She follows him over to his room, he enters and shuts the door behind him but doesn't look back. Snow takes a few deep breaths to prepare herself for the moment she enters and tells Charming how she feels.

She opens the door to his room as quietly as she can and peeks in. She smiles when she sees him. He is wearing what he wore the day that they met as he packs a bag. She fully enters the room and closes the door behind her. As the door clicks Charming turns to face her and as soon as their eyes meet he smiles at her, she smiles back. "Charming!" Snow said as she starts walking towards him.

"Snow!" Charming said as he walks towards her and picks her up and spins her around. She wraps her arms around his neck. "You came." He said with tears of joy in his eyes before putting her down. They look each other in the eyes before leaning in and kissing each other passionately on the lips. Snow wraps her arms around Charming's neck again and deepens the kiss. Though it isn't long before they have to pull away to breathe. "I love you Snow."

"I love you too, Charming." Snow replied with a smile.

"Right. Just let me finish packing and we can go." Charming said. Snow nods in reply.

"Do you want me to help?" Snow asked.

"No, it's all right, I am nearly finished. You can sit down if you want." Charming said.

"Ok." Snow said as she sits on the bed and Charming continued to pack. "So, what's the plan?" She asked.

"Well, I am going to finish packing, then we are going to go the secret way down to the dungeon where I am going to release my friend from prison. Then we are going to use the route that no one else knows, to escape the castle. Then we are going to go and grab some people and we are going to go to my friends summer palace where your step mother can't get to as the whole kingdom is protected from her and anyone who uses dark magic, except Rumplestiltskin, and my father will never think about looking there as my friends' father hates him and vice versa and we will be safe." Charming said looking at Snow.

"Do we have time to get there before people start looking for us?" Snow asked.

"Don't worry, they all assume that I am going to spend the night packing and then I am going to go to bed, they won't notice I am missing until about ten in the morning when my maid comes to wake me up. We'll be fine. And I am prepared for anything, I have my sword and you can have my bow and arrows." Charming said. "Right, I am done packing. Are you ready to go?" He asked.

"Yep." Snow said as she stands up from the bed and walks over to Charming. They grab their swords and bow and arrows. Charming gets his bag and holds Snow's hand in his before they leave the room and head down the secret pathways in the castle and down to the dungeon.

When they get down to the dungeon the run over to the cells to find a dwarf standing in one of them. Charming grabs the keys off the wall and opens the cell door. The dwarf comes out of the cell and looks at them. "Hey Grumpy. You ready to go?" Charming asked.

"You bet I am. Who's the pretty lady?" Grumpy asked.

"Grumpy, this is Snow. Snow, this is Grumpy." Charming said.

"Nice to meet you Grumpy." Snow said and extends her hand.

"Nice to meet you too sister." Grumpy said as he shakes her hand.

"Let's go." Charming said as the three of them start running through the dungeon and out of the castle.

The three of them easily manage to get out of the castle and when they reach the woods they find three horses set up for them. "These are our horses, grab one and we will ride the rest of the way." Charming said as they all get on a horse and start riding away quite fast, Charming is leading them to where they are going. It doesn't take them long to get to their destination, half an hour to be precise. They arrive at the Dwarfs' cottage and get off their horses. They are about to go in but Charming pulls Snow off to the side to talk. "Snow, I need to tell you something." Charming said.

"Ok." Snow said.

"I'm not actually Prince James. I am still the same person you met a month ago, but, you see. James was my twin brother, I grew up on a farm, being a Shepherd whereas James was adopted by King George so that the farm and my family were rich enough to survive. Just over a month ago James died and I had to take his place sleighing a dragon for Midas. I was going to go back to my mother after that but I had to marry Abigail or George would have killed my mother. Then I met you and everything changed. I'm telling you this because, my mother is in that cottage there waiting to meet you."

"Oh. So your mother knows about me." Snow asked.

"Of course she does. I secretly wrote her letters about what was going on in my life, I had to mention you as you were the only thing I could think about. Oh, and I found your friends Red and Granny, they are in there too." Charming said.

"Really?" Snow asked with a smile on her face.

"Yeah, you need your friends with you as well." Charming said.

"I love you Charming." Snow said before placing a kiss to Charming's lips.

"I love you too." Charming said. "Are you ready to go and meet my mother?" He asked.

"Yeah." Snow said as she took Charming's hand in hers and they walked into the cottage, where they are greeted by Red, Granny, the dwarfs' and of course Ruth, Charming's mother. Red runs over to Snow and embraces her in a huge sisterly hug. "Hey Red."

"Hey Snow." Red said. Charming goes over to his mother and embraces her.

"Hello mother." Charming said.

"Hello son. So are you going to introduce me to Snow or what?" Ruth asked as Charming takes her hand and they walk over to Red and Snow who are talking.

"Snow…" Charming trailed off as Snow and Red turned to look at him. "I would like you to meet my mother, Ruth. Mother, this is Snow, the woman I love." Charming said looking at Snow with such love and adoration in his eyes.

"It is so nice to meet you Snow, my son here has told me a lot about you." Ruth said.

"It's nice to meet you too." Snow said as Ruth pulled her in for a hug. Snow hugged her back and smiled.

"It's a pleasure to have you join the family." Ruth said as she pulled back and smiled at Snow, Snow returned the smile.

"Guys, Thomas is going to be here soon." Grumpy said.

"Ok, has everyone got everything that they need?" Charming asked everyone, they all nodded in reply. "Ok, we're all good to go. There are going to be three carriages. Me, Thomas, Snow and my mother are going to go in one, then the rest of you can split yourselves up into the other two. Is that all right with you guys?" Charming said. Everyone nodded. Then there was a knock at the door and Grumpy answered it. It was Thomas.

"You guys ready to go?" Thomas asked as he came in and gave Charming a brotherly hug, which Charming returned.

"Yeah, we're ready." Charming replied.

"Ok, let go then." Thomas said as he lead everyone out the cottage and to the carriages. They all got into the carriages. Thomas, Snow, Charming and Ruth in one. Red, Granny, Doc and Grumpy in another. And the other dwarfs in the last. As soon as everyone is in their carriages they all leave to go to Thomas' Summer Palace.

"So this must be the famous Snow White, I'm Thomas." Thomas said as he got in the carriage and sat next to Ruth, opposite to Snow and Charming and extended his hand to Snow.

"It's nice to meet you Thomas." Snow said as she shook Thomas' hand.

"Thomas, thank you for doing this for us. It means a lot." Charming said.

"That's all right brother." Thomas replied.

"How long does it take to get to the summer palace from here?" Charming asked.

"Well, we made it here in about an hour and a half, the dwarfs' cottage isn't far from the boarder so it shouldn't take that long. We will be there before George will want to come looking for you, so don't worry." Thomas said.

"Ok." Charming said before looking at Snow to notice her yawning. "Snow you look tired, why don't you try and get some sleep." Charming said as he wrapped an arm around Snow's shoulders. She leaned her head on his shoulder. "Don't worry, I'll wake you up when we get there."

"Ok." Snow said before closing her eyes. Charming placed a kiss to her head before turning to face Thomas and his mother. Whilst Snow is sleeping peacefully, Charming, Thomas and Ruth discuss many things, though they do it quietly as they don't want to wake Snow. About an hour and a half later they arrive at the summer palace and Charming gently wakes Snow up before they get out of the carriage and look at the summer palace.

"Wow. It's a beautiful palace Thomas." Ruth said.

"Yeah, it is a really beautiful place." Snow agreed.

"Thanks. Well why don't we all go to our rooms and get some rest and I will see you all tomorrow." Thomas said as he lead everyone inside and showed them to their rooms. Snow and Charming were sharing a room and when they entered it they looked in their closets to find clothes ready for them. They got changed into some clothes. Well, Snow put Charming's shirt on as it was hot and she didn't want to wear anything long like a night gown. They both got in their bed and Snow placed her head on Charming's chest as he ran his fingers through her long ebony locks.

"Charming…" Snow trailed off.

"Yeah." He answered.

"What's your real name?" She asked.

"David. My real name is David." Charming replied with a smile on his face.

"It's nice to meet you David. But you know what, I still like Charming better." Snow said as they both laughed.

"It's been a long night, we should get some sleep." Charming said.

"Ok. By the way, your shirts are really comfortable." Snow said.

"And you look incredibly sexy in my shirts. Goodnight Snow." Charming said.

"Goodnight Charming. I love you." Snow replied with a smile on her face.

"I love you too." He said before placing a kiss to her head and falling into a peaceful sleep with the woman he loved lying next to him.

So this is an idea that I had. I was thinking about how their life would be like if Snow didn't get caught by that guard and told to tell Charming she didn't love him in episode 10 of season 1. Please review, and tell me if you want me to continue. If I do this will include some Snow and Ruth bonding and at some point she will become pregnant with Emma. Also some Snow and Charming fluff will be included. Thanks for reading.
