A/N: This is set during season 3. Pan never took over Henry's body and the second curse never happened at least not yet anyways. The chapters are going to be short since I sorta started this out as being a series of drabbles. This is not the first fanfic I've written but it is the first one I've been willing to share. Sorry for any mistakes you may see.

Disclaimer: I own nothing!

Chapter 1

"Hi!"

Henry jumped slightly at the overly cheerful voice startled him out of reading his storybook. Looking up Henry came face to face with wide dark brown eyes and blonde princess curls pinned up in cute little pigtails surrounding the baby face of a little girl who appeared to be about five years old. Henry blinked up at her. "Uh Hi," he said with uncertainty clouding his facial expressions. He had never seen this girl before and yet she seemed vaguely familiar for some odd reason.

The girl bits her lip and carefully climbs up the stool next to Henry making sure to smooth out the light blue-green sundress and the nagging feeling of familiarity hits Henry again as the girl turns in the seat away from the counter to face Henry completely. She gave Henry a big innocent goofy smile that all five year olds seem to posses. "My name's Lily. What's 'ours?"

Smiling slightly. "My names Henry,"

"Really?!" Lily said with excitement her eyes lighting up as if Henry had offered her ice cream. "That's my daddy's name!" Lily eyes widened in awe.

"Oh, well that's cool," Henry replied feeling slightly awkward. Looking around the diner for a second Henry turned his focus back to Lily who had started swinging her legs back and forth. There not being much space between them and despite Lily having short little legs, managed to kick him in the thigh repeatedly. Henry tried to move a little further back and away from the overly excited child but could not go too far without falling out of his chair. "Er is your Dad around here somewhere?"

"Nope!"

"Oh ummm, then your mom?" Henry asked hopefully.

Lily shook her head frantically. "No I's don't know where Mommy or Daddy are. Maddie was 'uppose to walks with me to schools but she wasn't there when I's got out!"

"Did you tell your teacher so she could call your parents?" Henry asked with a frown.

"No, I's waited 'round for ewver," Lily said with a pout. "Maddie never came. So I tries walkings home myself but I's got lost and then I cames into Granny's cause Mommy an Daddy comes here a lot," Lily began looking as if she was going to cry.

"Hey hey it's okay. Oh don't cry Lily. I'll help you find your Mom and Dad," Henry said quickly patting Lily awkwardly on the shoulder. He thought briefly of telling someone. However, after everything that had happened in the last few months and his rescue from Neverland Henry really didn't want to bother his Mom's now that they had finally allowed him out of their sight for more than ten minutes. Things were finally starting to settle down and since this wasn't magical in nature and the girl's parents were probably at the school right now frantically looking for her, Henry figured it was an easy fix.

Lily smiled brightly at Henry again and threw her arms around him in a loose hug, nearly falling off the stool she had be perched on in the process. "YAY! Thank yous Henry!"

"Sure," Henry said patting Lily on the back once or twice before removing himself from her embrace. Standing up he began placing his book back inside his backpack. Turning to the young girl with a raised eyebrow and a small smile. "Let's go,"

Lily hopped off her stool and quickly took Henry's hand and followed him out of the diner.

"Let's head back to the school and check and see if your parents are there first okay?"

"Okays!" Lily said as she skipped beside Henry flinging their joint hands back and forth.

They'd only been walking for a few minutes when Lily suddenly stopped walking. Henry stopped as well and turn to look at her. "You okay Lily?" he asked feeling slightly concerned at the kids suddenly change from excited to serious.

"Henry," Lily asked looking up at him with curiously eyes.

"Uh yeah?"

"How comes you have my Daddy's storybook in you bag? Did my Daddy gives it to you?"

"What are you talking about?"

"The storybook yous were reading! My Daddy reads it to me every night before bedstime. Did my Daddy give it to you?"

Henry looked at Lily and it was like a bolt of lightly jolted threw his entire body. Henry looked quickly into Lily's eyes.

Eyes that were strangely familiar.

His eyes.

"Lily," Henry said in unnaturally calm voice.

"Yes, Henry?"

"Your last name wouldn't be Mills? Would it?"
