AU. Henry still went to find Emma when he was ten but the curse existed only in his mind.

Requested sequel to Before I Lose It All, but the original fic does not need to be read first to understand this story :)

I've seen that a few Once stories about trips to Disneyland have already been written but I've never seen an EC one set in any of the Disney theme parks so I thought it would be fun to try out! I hope you like it! :D

Henry and his three year old sister Kaelyn were sitting on his bed just after finishing a story he had been reading to her. The two were going back through the book so Kaelyn could see the pictures again when soft footsteps approached the bedroom.

"Alright you two it's time for bed." Their mother said from the doorway to her son's room.

"Mommy look! The mouse has a hat!" The little girl with dark blue eyes and brown hair that was only a few shades lighter than her mother's pointed to an illustration in the book.

"Very nice," Regina smiled. "Certainly something you don't see mice doing every day hmm?" She sat down next to her children.

The little girl happily shook her head as David entered the room and came kneel beside the others.

"They shoouuld!" Kaelyn insisted.

"I couldn't agree more." Regina responded.

"All ready for bed?" David asked.

"Yep." Henry answered for the both of them. "I even got Kaelyn to brush her teeth."

David gasped for show. "All of them?"

Kaelyn nodded proudly.

"Good for you! Look how grown up you're getting."

"Wanna see?!" Kaelyn asked.

"Sure," David laughed.

She gave him a wide smile so he could see her freshly cleaned teeth.

"You did an excellent job sweetie."

"When d'we go on the plane?" Kaelyn asked, crawling into her mother's lap.

"Tomorrow." Regina answered, wrapping her arms warmly around her baby girl. "One more sleep and then we'll be on our way to Disney."

"Disneeeey!" Kaelyn squealed happily.

Her parents and older brother couldn't help but smile at her excitement.

"Hey Kaelyn," Henry said suddenly. "Who's your favourite princess?"

"Cinderella!"

"Cinderella? I thought yesterday it was Ariel?" Henry asked teasingly. She always changed her mind about who her favourite Disney Princess was.

"No no no! Cinderella!" Kaelyn insisted.

Henry sniggered.

"What's funny?"

"You are." Henry grinned.

"Why?"

"He means you're absolutely perfect." Regina placed a kiss to the top of her daughter's head.

Henry rolled his eyes in amusement as Kaelyn gave him a look that said she was pleased with herself.

"Mommy says I'm perfect!"

Regina patted Henry's leg. "I think you're both perfect."

"And I think you're all perfect." David said, standing up. "But now it's time for the four of us to get to bed. We have a big day tomorrow."

"Okaay." Kaelyn said.

David patted Henry's shoulder. "Have a good sleep buddy."

"Thanks." He slipped under the covers.

David lifted Kaelyn off of Regina's lap and she wrapped her arms sleepily around him, nuzzling her head into the crook of his neck.

Regina stood up, and after Henry had laid down she pulled the blankets up to his shoulders.

"Goodnight," she said softly, placing a kiss to his forehead

"Moom," he complained, although he still had a smile on his face. "I'm fourteen, you don't need to kiss me goodnight anymore."

"I don't care how old you are. If I want to kiss my son goodnight I will." She said, sitting on the edge of the bed beside him. "You'll always be my little prince."

"Mom don't say that, it's embarrassing!" He insisted, trying to hold back a laugh.

"Oh no one can hear me." She smiled.

He tried to dodge her second and third kisses but failed.

"Night mom," he said.

Her smile softened. "Goodnight Henry."

She stood up again and followed David out of the room. She was the last one to leave and so she turned around, giving one last smile to Henry before turning out the light. She closed the door, leaving it open a few inches before she followed David into Kaelyn's room.

Regina pulled the pink and purple blankets back as David lowered their daughter carefully into her white-framed canopy bed. Regina tucked the blankets up to Kaelyn's chin and placed a gentle kiss to her forehead.

"Goodnight my beautiful princess."

"Night."

"Sweet dreams."

She stood up and let David take her place by Kaelyn's side as she went to turn on Kaelyn's nightlight.

He gave the three-year-old her stuffed bunny rabbit.

"Bunny!" Kaelyn's eyes shone happily.

"I thought you'd want her." David smiled. "Night Kaelyn."

She closed her eyes as he too placed a goodnight kiss to her forehead.

"Night daddy," she murmured, hugging Bunny as she turned onto her side.

David stood up and joined Regina at the door. She was staring fondly at their little girl.

"Come on," he whispered softly. "It's time for us to get some sleep too."

She felt herself smile as he kissed her temple. Her warm eyes met his and she gave a small nod.

David turned out the light and wrapped an arm around his wife's waist as they made their way back to their room.

When they entered the room David closed the door behind them. The bedroom had a warm glow as the only light came from the two bedside lamps. Regina had just taken off her housecoat when she felt her husband's arms circle softly around her. His touch sent a pleasant tingling sensation throughout her body as the only thing between his arms and her skin was a thin layer of silk.

She leaned her head sideways as he brushed her hair back, kissing her neck. She felt that familiar warmth spread through her as she turned around in his arms. Her own arms slid around his back and she rested her cheek against the fabric of his t-shirt.

He placed a kiss to the top of her head. "Have I ever told you how much I love you in silk?" He whispered.

"Mmm." She closed her eyes. "Only about a thousand times."

"I don't think a thousand is enough."

"Have I ever told you what I love you in?" She said, her voice growing ever-more teasing.

"What."

"Absolutely nothing," she whispered, nibbling on his earlobe.

"Really." He feigned thinking this over.

He suddenly scooped her into his arms and she gave a surprised cry as he carried her over to the bed.

"David!" She laughed, trying to keep her voice down.

He lowered her onto the bed and climbed onto the mattress over her.

"I can make that happen," he whispered before leaning down and capturing her lips in his.

She moaned appreciatively against his lips and so he deepened the kiss. Her arms wrapped around the back of his neck, holding him close to her.

He finally broke away from the kiss, running his fingers delicately through her hair as he stared lovingly into her eyes. She was positively glowing.

Her hands slid from his shoulders to his chest. She pushed him onto his back, rolling over with him and then straddling his hips. His hands found her waist as hers rested on his chest again. She lowered closer to him, her hair tumbling down around her beautiful face. Just as he thought she was about to kiss him again, her lips moved to beside his ear instead.

"Not tonight my love." She whispered, followed by a quick apology kiss to his cheek.

He gave an involuntary groan as she swung her leg back over him and sat on the mattress beside him. He pulled himself into a sitting position, leaning back against the soft headboard.

"Why do you do this to me," he shook his head, smiling.

"Because it's so much fun to tease you." She bit her lower lip, grinning mischievously.

He pulled the blankets up and got underneath them, resting back against the headboard again. "Come here," he said, holding his arm out for her.

She moved closer to him without hesitation, moving under the covers and melting into his embrace. She relaxed as she felt his arms wrap protectively around her. She rested her head on his chest as he rested his cheek against the top of her head.

"I'm sorry," she said. "It's just that we have a long day tomorrow and we really need to get some sleep." Her voice grew more suggestive. "It has absolutely nothing to do with you dear, trust me."

"You know I love you anyways." David said with a smile.

"I know." She closed her eyes, sighing in contentment. "I love you too."

The couple remained like that for a while longer, simply enjoying the comfort of being in each other's arms.

After about twenty minutes David looked down to see that his wife's eyes were closed.

"Regina," he whispered.

"Mmm?" She murmured, half asleep.

"We should try to get some sleep."

She groaned as she shifted in his arms, reluctant to leave the safety of his embrace.

"Okay," she breathed, still not moving.

He rubbed his hand up and down her arm. "Come on."

She grudgingly pulled herself away from him. After placing a tender kiss to his lips she nestled under the covers on her side of the bed, closing her eyes.

David pulled the blanket up to her shoulders and then lied down beside her, wrapping an arm around her once more.

"Goodnight honey," she whispered sleepily.

He smiled, running a hand affectionately through her hair. "Goodnight."

"Daddy?" A quiet whisper broke through the silence of the semi-dark bedroom.

David stirred in his sleep but didn't wake up.

The three-year-old stood quietly for a few minutes, peering up at him waiting to see if he would wake up.

When there was no response, the little girl moved to the foot of the bed and pulled herself up onto the cushiony surface.

She crawled up in between her sleeping parents and slipped under the covers. Her head plopped down on the free space of her mother's pillow and she stared at her through bright blue eyes.

Kaelyn shifted as she tried to try to find a more comfortable position. Regina's eyelashes fluttered open and her eyes warmed as she saw her daughter there beside her.

"Did you have a bad dream?" Regina whispered as she brushed her fingers delicately through her daughter's soft hair.

Kaelyn shook her head.

Regina checked the alarm clock on the nightstand behind her:

3:07

"Can't sleep?"

Kaelyn shook her head again.

"I stay with you?" the little girl whispered.

"Of course you can darling."

Kaelyn inched a little closer to her mother who wrapped an arm around her.

"Are you excited for tomorrow?"

Kaelyn nodded, yawning widely.

"Well you know, the sooner you fall asleep the sooner you'll wake up. And then we'll be on the way to Disney." She tapped the little girl's nose gently.

David cleared his throat in his sleep but didn't wake up.

"Am I gonna see princesses?"

"Indeed you are," Regina smiled. "And also Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse... all of their friends; princes, fairies and even pirates."

"Hmm," Kaelyn smiled as she thought about this. "And there's castles?"

"Well, there is at least one. Cinderella's castle. It's the one you see at the beginning of all your Disney movies. And guess what else?"

"What?"

"We're going to go inside the castle."

"Really?!" Kaelyn asked a little too loudly.

David groaned, turning over in his sleep.

"Hush darling," Regina whispered with a quiet laugh, rubbing Kaelyn's arm gently. "We don't want to wake your father. He has to drive tomorrow and we don't want him to be grumpy do we?"

Kaelyn shook her head.

Regina lifted her head to peer over her daughter, checking to see if they had woken her husband. Thankfully he still appeared to be fast asleep.

She rested her head back on her pillow again. "Now I know you're excited, but it's important for us to get as much sleep as we can. We have a long day ahead of us."

"Okay mommy."

"That's my girl." She placed a soft kiss to Kaelyn's forehead.

"Night mommy," Kaelyn kissed her mother's cheek.

Regina 's smiled at the gesture. "Goodnight sweetheart." She whispered, closing her eyes. Regina fell back to sleep quickly and her daughter wasn't far behind.
