"Henry! Oh god, I was so scared!",Regina Mills said relieved when she saw her son and a strange woman coming to the house. "I found my real Mom!",Henry just answered and brushed past Regina and the the town's sheriff Graham. "I'll check if he is okay.",Graham said and Regina nodded. She turned around to the strange woman and looked at her shocked. "You are Henrys birthmother?", she asked and the woman gave her a innocent smile. "Hi." "Eh… Would you like a…"
"Mom?",cut her a little female voice off and she turned around to the door. "It's past your bedtime, young lady.",Regina said and her daughter Melanie ran to her to hug her. "I couldn't sleep and Henry came back but he just muttered something and… I wasn't bad ,Mom. Was I?" "No, sweetheart. It's your brothers fault. He went without permission to… where are you from?",she turned back to the woman. "Boston.",the woman answered.
"Just promise me that you won't do the same thing and we'll never get in trouble. Henry scared me.",Regina said and kneeled down to her daughter. She stroke over her cheeks and gave her a smile filled with love. "I won't Mom. I love you." "I love you to, sweetheart." "Can I have an apple before I go to bed?" "Sure sweetheart.",Regina said and stood up while Melanie ran to the apple tree.
"My name is Emma Swan.",the woman introduced herself and shook hands with Regina. "Regina Mills. That's my daughter Melanie." Regina watched Melanie fearfully and Emma frowned. "You don't have to supervise everything." "Better safe than sorry.",Regina just answered and smiled when Melanie came back to her and hugged her. "I picked an apple for you, too Mom." "That's nice, sweetheart. Thank you.",Regina answered and kissed Melanie's cheek.
"Would you like to try the best apple cider?",Regina asked Emma who nodded smiling. They went into the house and to the study. Regina saw that Melanie crept behind them and laughed softly. She poured three glasses. Two with apple cider and one with apple juice before she sat them onto the couch table and opened the door to the study where Melanie was staying. "It's still past your bedtime, young lady.",she said and Melanie shrugged. She slipped in the room and took her glass.
When they all settled down Graham came in the room to inform Regina that Henry was fine and sleeping. Regina dismissed him and saw how Melanie slowly drifted off to sleep. She took her into her lap and stroke softly over Melanie's head. They talked some until Emma said something what hurt Melanie. "He has quite the fantasy.",Emma said smiling and Regina looked up. "What do you mean with that?",Regina asked and raised an eye brow. Melanie laid silently in her arms and listened.
"I mean with his fairytale book and that everyone here is cursed.",when Regina watched her surprised she stopped. "I mean… you… ehm." "It's fine… I just don't like his fantasies.",Regina said and hugged Melanie tighter. "No, you hate that he calls you the Evil Queen and don't want to be close to you. And it hurts me like hell that he doesn't love you.",Melanie said loudly and looked up.
"It's okay. He'll come around. We'll be a family again." "He hurts you and you still protect him!",Melanie said and stood up. She looked at Regina with tears in her eyes and Regina stood up. "Meli…" "No! You don't get to defend him! He treats you like shit and you never snap at him!",Melanie screamed and Regina opened her mouth but Melanie ran into her room. "Melanie! Melanie Arianna Mills you come down this instant.",Regina shouted after Melanie and just got a door slamming shut as an answer.
Regina sighed and went back to Emma. "Melanie has her issues with the fairytale. Since Henry got this book he is distant to me and Melanie. She is hurt. Before the book they were inseparable and now he doesn't even want to spend time with her…" "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have talked about that… it isn't my business." "Yeah. And I would be happy if you would stay out of any of it.",Regina snapped and Emma sighed. "Hey… I wasn't the person who made this relationship like it is right now." "No but you'll still leave town after you go out of this door.",Regina said and pointed at the front door. "I didn't intend to stay.",Emma answered and stood up. "Good."
They went to the front door and studied each other one more time before Emma left and went to her car. Regina slammed the door shut and slid down. Emma looked to the rooms and saw how both children watched her. Henry with a hopeful smile, Melanie with a sceptic one. She waved them good bye and climbed in her car.
The next day Emma woke up in a jail cell in the sheriff station. Graham sat in his chair and watched her. They talked and Regina came into the station because Henry went missing again. After some convincing Emma got free and helped Regina to find Henry again. She went to Henry's and Melanie's school and went into their class with Regina.
"Where is my son?",Regina demanded and their teacher ,Mary-Margret Blanchard, looked at them confused. "I thought he would be at home.",MM said and Regina snorted. "When did my son got ill during school?",she asked with venom and doubts in her voice. "Everything has a first time.",Emma said and Regina looked at her. "I would have to phone the school to tell them that he is ill what I didn't do." "Well, sorry that I don't know this school." "If you would have spend more time in school you probably would know." "How?" "I'm the mayors daughter… I know everything.",Regina answered annoyed and looked at MM. "So? Where is my son?" "I really don't know. But who is that?" "Emma Swan. Henry's birthmother."Regina spat and sighed. "If you know where he is send him back."
Melanie ran into the room and saw her mother. "Mom!",she said excited and hugged Regina. "I knew that you would come to get me." MM and Emma looked confused and Regina hugged her back. "I'm sorry, sweetheart. That's not the main reason.",Regina said and Melanie looked hurt. "But…" "I'm sorry. I'm really, sweetheart but I have to find your brother first before we can go to Granny's." Melanie started crying and Regina held her close. "He is unfair.",Melanie sobbed and Regina lifted Melanie up and put her on hip. "I'm so sorry, sweetheart."
MM and Emma melted at this sight and sighed. "Where could he possible be?",Emma asked quietly MM. "I would look in his castle.",MM answered and they shared a smile. "You two go to Granny's and I get Henry.",Emma suggested and Regina turned around. "Really?" "Yes. Now hurry before the lunch rush kicks in." "Thank you.",Regina said confused but went with Melanie to the diner.
Emma and Henry talked at his castle and they drove to the diner.
"Why would your mother pick up your sister during school time?", Emma asked him. "It's her birthday today. She does this every time one of us has birthday and we get everything we want from Granny's." "Your sister was hurt that you left school." "I… I know but I needed to think." "Sometimes you have to think about others first. I don't know how old she got but I know that it's important for her to spend time with you."
"But she doesn't believe about the curse. She did at the beginning but she spent some time alone with Mom and afterwards she didn't any longer. Mom cursed her because she wouldn't want the curse broken.",Henry said angry and Emma sighed.
"Please just spend some time with her. She is crying every time someone mentions you and your absence." "She isn't." "She is and if you don't want to believe me then ask your teacher.",Emma said and left no room for protest.
Finally they arrived and went in the diner where Melanie was sitting in Regina's lap and eating ice cream. Henry slid in the opposite booth and Regina sighed. Melanie just shoved her ice faster in her mouth until Regina stopped her. "Not so fast, sweetheart. It will give you brain freeze.",she said and kissed Melanie on the hair. "Doesn't matter as long as I can be as far as possible away from him.",Melanie muttered and Regina sighed. "Don't be so mean to your brother. He has a lot to think about." "Me too but I don't destroy his favorites activities!",Melanie said and stood up from Regina's lap. "I didn't say that it is right…",Regina tried but Melanie just took the bowl and threw it on the floor before she ran out of the diner.
