I don't known the characters from OUAT…but the OC's are mine.

Emma stared at her hands. Her thoughts were racing, in every direction but where she wanted them to go. It's not that she wasn't happy about having a brother. She was, loved him very much. He made her parent's so happy as well, Emma could see it. Yet, she couldn't help but wonder if they had ever looked at her once that way too.

As far back as Emma could remember no one really ever looked at her like that. The two that would have died, tragically in an "accident," that was all Emma's fault. She killed them.

Her mind continued to race as her fingers wound their way around a pocket knife that lay next to her. Maybe he had been right, the man she was force too live with, after their deaths. His words echoed through her mind and before Emma realized it, she was whispering them on impulse. She whispered them as if he was standing over her from behind ready to reprimand her for not being a good little girl. Tears found their way to Emma's cheeks as she instinctively repeated what he had always told her.

She stared at her reflection in the bathroom mirror. "I am worthless"

"I will never amount to anything."

"No one will ever love me. I am unlovable."

One. Two. Three. Four.

The blood slid slowly down Emma's arm as more steadily filled each cut. Relief washed over Emma as if what she had done had somehow made it all away. Even though deep down she knew it hadn't, it was all still there, in the back of her mind. It always stayed back there lurking, waiting to once again resurface and become the wall she once again couldn't get passed. Not without caving into this unspeakable act, to only have it once again reappear later on.

A knock at the door, caused Emma to freeze, even though she knew she was safe and sound locked behind the bathroom door.

"Emma? Regina just called; she needs us to come to Granny's." The voice belonged to David. Emma stared down at her arm in shame. They loved her. David and Mary-Margret loved her, and this is how she was repaying their love. She knew they shouldn't love her; she sure as hell didn't deserve it, but, for some elusive reason they loved her anyway. However, she couldn't help but feel that soon that their love would fade into oblivion soon enough. She couldn't help but wonder if David, Mary-Margret and Henry would be better off without her.

"Just a minute," Emma said steadily as she reached for the gauze from behind the cabinet behind the mirror, "I'll be out soon."

She listened as she could hear David's footsteps walk away. "Okay Emma, I'll wait in the truck."

***At the Dinner***

When Emma and Charming reached the dinner she could see everyone standing in a wide circle. surrounding the jukebox Granny just had put in.

"What is going on in here?" Emma asked as Regina walked up to them.

"Took you long enough to get here."

"What is all the commotion about?" David asked.

Regina led the duo through the crowd till they could see three teenage girls dancing around the jukebox. "Them," she said concern shown on her face and in her voice as she watched the girls.

Mary-Margret walked up, holding Neal protectively only taking her eyes off the girls for a moment, "No one knows who these girls…"

"Where they came from, or how they got here." Regina finished.

Before either could respond….

"EMMA!" One of the girls attacked Emma with a tight hug.

"What are you doing, Idiot!" the second girl shouted at the long-haired teenager.

"Do I know you?" Emma asked in shock, the girl radiated excitement.

The girl looked up at Emma, as the smile slowly, faded. "Oops…" She quickly rejoined the other two girls.

The third girl folded her arms, "What did I tell you! What did my father tell you?" The first girl shrank back, "I'm sorry."

"There is nothing we can do about it now," said the second girl. "We might as well introduce ourselves."

"That sounds like a good idea." Emma said, as she looked at David.

The second girl stepped forward as she placed her hand on her chest, "My name is Lily."

She then gestured towards the third girl who then spoke, "I'm Gracelyn."

"And I'm," The first girl chimed in excitedly, "Ava."
