AN: Hey guys here's the next chapter, please mind the TW in this one...
Trigger Warnings: Mention of Attempted Suicide...
An incessant high pitch ringing echoes around the mansion. Groggy green eyes sloppily slide open and Morrigan groans from the aching in her skull and pain shooting across her back, how long was I out?..The house phone continues to ring so she painfully pulls herself up but is stopped from standing by Serra's gentle hand.
"Morrigan rest."
Green eyes glide lazily to a bewildered Maya fumbling with the ringing phone and Morrigans cracked lips smile weakly.
"Maya leave it, its okay.."
The girl hesitantly places the phone on the desk before sliding back onto the carpet at Morrigans feet. Morrigan quickly ushers the pair onto the sofa and hums content when they nestle into her sides.
"Is Ellie still sleeping?" Hazel eyes peer up at her.."Ellie sleeping?"
Serra nods, pointing to the roof and Morrigan chuckles weakly, god that girl will lounge in bed all day if no one goes to get her. I'm glad though, I would've hated if she saw me earlier, I must have looked a mess..
"Thanks, both of you."
The girls smile brightly as she carefully wraps her arms around the pair. The high pitch noise of a phone echo's around them again and Morrigan sighs, they can fuck off, I meant every word last night..I'm done..Someone suddenly pounds on the front door startling them.
Frustrated, Morrigan painfully rises to her feet with a grunt and hesitantly makes her way into the foyer as another angry pound on the door resounds around the mansion, god damn it!..She storms over to the door and throws it open, frowning deeply at a grumpy Leroy pouting on the porch.
"Its about time sister! The town needs some of your psycho magic, we've got a big problem!"
"I don't know who told you to come but you can turn around and piss off! I'm not helping you anymore! Deal with your own fucking problems from now on!" She moves to slam the door when the dwarf lodges his foot against the wood. Morrigan scowls, stalking towards the little man.."Move you fucking foot Leroy!"
"Listen, I don't know whats happened, but I doubt you'd want your merry bandits to get squished by some snow monster!"
Green eyes narrow.."Robin?"
"He's in trouble, a giant pissed off snow man is heading for their camp and I doubt Blondie's magic will have the kick to get rid of it."
Morrigan bites her cheek, frustrated by the savior yet again throwing her in harms way.
"Get off Regina's porch dwarf! I'll see what I can do!" And without another word, Morrigan slams the door in the mans face and rests her weary head on the wooden frame, picking up the slack yet again it seems..She turns, noting Serra and Maya stood concerned in the foyer but she briskly slides passed into the kitchen. She grabs the green first aid kit from under the counter and pulls out several bandages, have to hurry, I cant let Robin and Roland get hurt, even if I want Marian skinned alive after what she said to Regina..She holds a bandage out to the two girls and signals her back.
A couple of minutes later, Morrigan's pulling a fresh shirt over her bandaged back and summons her magic.."Watch Ellie, there's food in the fridge but stay here okay? I'll be back soon."
The couple nod and she smiles weakly before disappearing in a plume of burgundy smoke..
Emma, Hook and David quickly run amongst the merry men's camp, frantically looking through the trees and wondering where a thirty foot snow monster can possibly hide.
Robin quickly approaches the frantic group.."What is it?"
David paces forward, blue eyes scanning the infinite forest around them.."Some kind of snow monster."
"No monster shall cross our path, get the.."
A loud screech echos from somewhere in the distance and Hook jabs his sword passed the group of Merry men.."Its coming from the north!"
All eyes are quickly drawn to the looming monster of ice heading straight for them.
"Its there!"
Emma's eyes widen.."No no, wait!"
Too late an arrow launches from little Johns crossbow and bounces off the walking mass of ice.
"It only attacks when it feels threatened!"
The ice giant screeches and Hook quickly steps forward.."With just a sword, my hook and my cunning wit, I dont think we have what it takes!"
"Emma does."
Emma looks baffled at her hopeful father.."What?!"
"Your magic love." Hook waves his sword like a magic wand and Emma nods.
"Ah, right." She squares her shoulders, flexing her wrists and concentrates. White magic ghosts over her palms and a pulse is sent straight into the snowman's chest. It staggers backwards and Emma smirks triumphant.."Take that frosty."
It quickly recovers and screams at them, spikes popping out from its body, making it look more vicious.
"Really?!"
It swings a heavy fist sending Emma sailing into the bushes and tumbling to the dirt unconscious. It then blows a freezing gust of frosty air at the remaining group, sending them flying backwards in all directions. An arrow suddenly sticks in its arm and it screeches at Marian, quickly kicking her to the floor and advancing.
Suddenly a plume of burgundy smoke appears in front of the creature and it pauses. Green eyes glance around at the unconscious group before sliding menacingly to a cowering Marian, I should just let the bitch be crushed, no one would ever know..Green eyes glance at the wary ice giant and then settle back on the fearful woman in the dirt.
"Please help me! Please!"
Morrigan stares disgusted at a pleading Marian but after a pause, she disappears in a swirl of burgundy smoke letting the ice creature resume its attack.
Marian's eyes widen.."No!"
"Marian!"
Robin quickly launches to his feet and shields his wife with his body as a giant foot is raised above the pair. Suddenly the snowman stumbles backwards with a screech, its leg splintering into shards, quickly followed by its head before a mountain of ice collapses to the dirt with a shudder.
Morrigan lowers her hands, wobbling on her feet and glances at the startled bandit couple, your lucky Robin was here bitch or you'd be dead!..The rest of the heroes stir, waking and slowly climbing to their feet as Morrigan hobbles off towards denser trees.
"You saved me."
Morrigan pauses, glancing at a confused Marian.."No, I saved Robin."
"Morrigan.."
Emma tries to approach but Morrigan waves the woman off and continues walking at a slow pace.
"Morrigan wait, we need to talk about.."
Morrigan whirls, narrow bloodshot eyes burning into Emma.."No we don't savior! Oh and the next time your not living up to your title, don't send your brown nosed dwarfs to beg for my help!"
With a firm wave, Morrigans gone in swirls of burgundy smoke and Emma sighs weakly..
"Regina?"
Morrigan wanders the cold halls of Regina's vault, inspecting each room and object intently, I've got a really bad feeling about this..
"Please Regina, I know your down here..Talk to me beloved.." She inspects the mass of empty heart boxes and traces her hands over stone walls, I can feel her somehow, I know shes close..Green eyes catch a brief flicker of light and she stops abruptly, tracing a faint line running down the wall, bingo..She knocks, pressing her ear to the stone.
"Regina? Please open up.."
Morrigan pushes at the seam and forces a little magic into the wall. There's a soft click before the stone slides forward into a hidden room.
"I'm coming in.." She gently pushes the door open and slips inside.."Regina?"
Green eyes flicker around the various enchanted items and Evil Queen outfits out on display and she shivers at the memories. Cautiously she moves into the seemingly empty room before her heart leaps into her throat and she pales considerably.
"REGINA!"
Morrigan rushes forward, jumping over the table and scoops an unconscious Regina into her lap.
"Regina! Regina! No, come on!"
The woman remains unresponsive, Regina's once olive cheeks pale and gauntly white, glass and blood encircle the pair and Morrigans stomach lurches at the uncertain slits and glass dug into olive arms.
"No you cant do this to me! You cant let them get to you! We're finally a family, you cant give up on us!"
Tears stream down Morrigans cheeks as she shakes the limp body in her arms and pats Regina's face.
"Regina please..Please.."
Brown eyes droop and sloppily slide open.
"Morrigan?"
"I'm here, I'm here..I'll never leave you I promise. You have to hang on for me understand, I'm going to get you help."
"No..No one will help me..I'm the Evil Queen.."
Morrigans blood boils as she quickly scoops her dazed lover into her arms and staggers to her feet, I hate this town! I hate everyone!..
"I need to take you to the hospital.."
"No.."
"Regina I don't know how much blood you've lost, you could.."
"No..Please..I didn't mean too..I don't..I don't want to go.."
Morrigan watches Regina bawl weakly and her mind races, shes delirious, but who else would help me?..She frowns deeply, Looks like I'm going to have to make a deal with the devil..
Belle narrows her eyes at the jewelry rack behind the plain glass window in golds shop.
"Rumple? The silver pendent, does it go in.." A swirl of burgundy smoke and a collapsing witch has the brunette gasping and rushing to Morrigans side.."Morrigan? Are you okay? Rumple!"
Morrigan pants heavily, leaning against one of the glass cases and grasps Belles hand desperately.."I need Rumple! I need to make a deal now!"
"What?! Why?! Whose blood is that?!"
"It seems someones desperate."
Morrigan's red rimmed eyes dart to the dark one leaning against the front counter and she unceremoniously pulls herself onto wobbly legs.
"Its Regina, I need you to save her, I'll give you anything!"
"Regina? And what's happened to our dear Queen?"
"Shes hurt and I don't have the magic to heal her! Please we have to go now!"
Gold raises a questionable eyebrow at the erratic woman.."Why cant you just take her to the hospital?"
"No hospitals, I know what they'd all start saying about her if I did!"
Belle shuffles back anxiously at the amount of blood soaked into Morrigans clothes.."Morrigan..What's Regina done?"
Green eyes dart to the trepidatious woman.."Please I don't have time! Gold help me, what do you want?!"
"Nothing, he wants nothing."
"I don't?"
Belle glares at the man.."No you don't, seen as she saved your life from Zelena."
Gold raises an eyebrow but concedes graciously.."I suppose she did. So where is our dear Queen?"
"The mansion! We have to hurry, she hasn't got long!"
"Lets get going then." He waves his hand and the two of them disappear in a swirl of red smoke..
Morrigan finishes rinsing a porcelain plate and places it on the drying rack. Green eyes drift to the giggling girls in the backyard and linger, shes completely oblivious to everything, besides noticing the few cuts and bruises and my new haircut, Ellie thinks everything's fine and normal, that I didn't just fall through a time portal and get tortured by the Evil Queen..She watches Serra and Maya run away from the giggling girl but Morrigans chapped lips remain sealed in a tight, thin line, when I came home I expected my life to return to normal, but its even worse than when I left. A part of me actually wishes I stayed in the past but..She sighs, placing the sponge in the sink and gathers a water bowl and some clean towels, I just have to keep up this charade until Regina's better..Her mind darkens as she makes her way upstairs, What the fuck was she thinking?! I cant believe she actually tried to...or maybe it some sort of mistake?..
Morrigan quietly slips into the dimly lit room, weary eyes clinging to the unconscious woman in bed as the door closes with a light click, Gold managed to heal her wounds but its going to take time for her strength to come back, shes lost a lot of blood..How long was she like that before I found her?..
Morrigan slips gently onto the sheets and places towels and a basin on the nightstand. Slim fingers softly stroke Regina's pale cheek but a spark of anger ignites within her, what a stupid fucking thing to do! All that talk about me not leaving her, about me not sacrificing myself and abandoning her and she suddenly does this!..Morrigan wipes an angry tear from her cheek and retrieves a damp towel from the table, looks like I have a lot to get sorted, that means no more running. I chose this life when I had other options so now its time I take responsibility. But that doesn't mean I have to be all smiles and rainbows about what shes done...God damn it Regina..
Morrigan snatches a small white bottle from the bedside table and swallows two pills with a sip of water, I'll have to try and get some sleep soon, I'm running on fumes here. I have zero magic and zero energy..A gentle knock has her quietly pacing for the door and when she pulls it open, bright hazel eyes stare at her.
"Whats up Serra?"
"Ellie..sleep?" The girl points to Ellie's room and then to herself.
Morrigan smiles weakly, sliding out of Regina's bedroom and closes the door with a gentle click.."I should give her a bath first, then bed." She moves forward but a soft hand lands on her chest.
"I can do..You to Regina."
"No its okay, there's not much more I can do.." She glances grimly at the door and moves forward again but Serra pulls at her arm, angering her.."Serra stop!"
The girl shrinks away and Morrigan sighs wearily, gently placing her hands on the reserved girls arms. A slim finger crooks under Serra's downcast chin and the girls head is softly pulled up.
"I'm sorry, I just..I know you want to help but I have to stay busy.." Morrigan holds a hand out to the girl and smiles weakly when slender fingers hesitantly lace through hers.."Come on, we can do it together.."
Serra smiles, sliding alongside Morrigan as they walk side by side down to the foyer. There's a knock on the front door and the pair freeze, who the hell is that now?!..Morrigan slips their hands apart and ushers the girl towards the backyard.."Go and see to Ellie, I'll be back in a minute."
Serra nods, curious eyes glancing at the door as she makes her way into the kitchen.
Another knock and Morrigan storms over to the door, throwing it open. She frowns deeply at Emma staring back but softens a little at Henry's worried eyes, nice tactic blondie!..
Henry shuffles apprehensively.."Hey.."
"Hey."
"Can we talk?"
Morrigan's green eyes narrow at the fidgeting blond sheriff.."There's nothing left to talk about, I thought I made that pretty clear last night!"
"Listen, I know I messed up, but saving that woman was the right thing to do."
"You think I'm pissed because of Marian?!"
"Well yeah."
Morrigan chuckles bitterly.."Stupid as always then." She moves to slam the door when Emma pushes it back open.
"Was it what Marian said, because I'm on your side about that."
"You've never been on my side savior so stop pretending otherwise!"
"Is my mom here?"
Morrigan glances at the uneasy boy as Henry darts into the foyer and she rushes after him, blocking access to the staircase, not a good idea him seeing Regina like this..
"Mom?! Mom your not a monster!"
"Henry you need to leave, you both do!" She scowls at a curious Emma who wanders the foyer.
"But I want to see her."
"Well she doesn't want to see you so leave!" Her heart clenches at the pain in Henry's eyes.
"Hey! If Regina doesn't want to see him then she should tell him herself!"
Morrigan's anger rises, her eyes flickering red as she tries summoning her magic but finds none to conjure, damn it! Looks like threats will have to do..
"I swear Swan if you don't get out of this house right now I'll.."
"You'll what?!" Emma quickly invades the seething witch's personal space.."You get all mad about what Ive done! Well what about what you've done! You murdered countless people when we first met but did I do anything too you?! No, I gave you chance after chance and saved your ass from people that wanted to rip you and Regina apart! The least you can do is give me the courtesy of telling me what I've done to piss you off so much!"
Morrigan's fists clench painfully, flickering red eyes blazing.."I hate you.."
Emma startles, pulling back at the viciousness.."What?"
"I hate you..I FUCKING HATE YOU!" Morrigan darts forward, shoving the blond backwards towards the door.."You ruined everything!"
Shove.."You keep destroying my life! At the portal years ago, back in the past, and when you say something you know shouldn't be said!"
Shove..."You want to know why savior?! Your selfishness at the diner nearly killed me and Regina and I HATE you for it!" Shove...
Emma's back thumps into the white door, eyes wide and focused on the tears rolling from enraged red eyes.."How..?"
"MOM!"
Both women startle, eyes darting upstairs and Morrigan quickly rushes up with the savior close behind..Fucking damn it! I was so focused on Swan I forgot about the boy!..She runs into the room, watching Henry gently shake Regina's shoulder and grasping one of the woman's pale hands.
"Mom! Mom!..What's wrong with her?! Why is she so cold?! What happened?!"
"Get out.."
Emma stares at the unmoving mayor and her stomach churns.
"I said get out!" Morrigan storms over to a panicking Henry and blocks his view of his mother.
"No! What happened?! What did you do?!"
Henry squares up to her and Morrigans heart sinks, what I did? I..I didn't..Hurt red eyes flicker back green, Morrigan quickly avoiding the boys angry lour as she collapses on the bed defeated. She tries so hard but inevitably a sob rips from her throat as she cups her head in her shaking hands.
Emma and Henry soften, the blond shifting towards the bed and glancing at her concerned son.."Morrigan what happened?"
Morrigan shakes her head, trying to hide her tears behind short messy hair. Henry gently slides onto the bed and stares alarmed at the blood seeping through Morrigans fresh shirt.
"Ma.." He signals the bloodied back and Emma slowly kneels in front of a distraught Morrigan.."Why haven't you been to the hospital?"
"I had to take care of everyone.."
"Did you lose control? Is that what happened to Regina?"
Morrigan shakes her head and Emma notes the way exhausted green eyes flicker to Henry.
"Henry could you get Morrigan some water and painkillers?"
"Sure." Henry races from the room and Emma quickly scoots closer.
"What happened?"
Bloodshot green eyes slide up wearily.."I found her in her vault, she was hurt badly and I had to get Gold to heal her."
"Someone attacked her?"
Morrigan shakes her head and Emma looks away grimly.
"I'm sorry Morrigan, I really am, I didn't mean to be so stupid last night, to break your trust but you need help. You look like you could drop dead at any moment."
"Thanks.."
Emma smiles weakly, placing a gentle hand on Morrigans arm.."No one else needs to find out about Regina, but you cant push us away from this. Let us help, if not for Regina, do it for Henry and Elinor.."
Morrigan fidgets, wiping the tears from her face with a shaky hand and gazes between the beige carpet and the blond. With an audible sigh, she nods weakly, shes right, I need help. I almost lost Regina today..
"Okay then, first things first, we need to sort your back out."
"No hospitals."
"Fine, but if its bad I may have to call someone."
"I'll attempt to heal it in the morning so no need."
Emma pouts at the woman's stubbornness until Henry carefully paces into the room with a bottle of aspirin and a tall glass of water.
"I couldn't find anything stronger, sorry."
"I'll have some later, I already took two before you came and the pains okay at the moment."
Morrigan slowly rises from the bed with a wince and rolls her eyes at the blonds eagerness to help. She glances woeful at her pale lover but with screaming protest from her back, gently places a kiss on Regina's forehead.
"Come on, I have to bath Ellie and put her to bed before.."
"No, I'm sure Serra and Maya can handle it for one night. We need to look at your back before it gets any worse."
Emma and Henry are ushered from the room and down the stairs by the stubborn witch.
"I've managed to survive a full day, I'm sure another half hour isn't going to kill me."
"Well your not alone now so another half hour isn't needed."
They stare at each other before a head peaks out from behind the kitchen wall. Morrigan stares between Serra and Emma and sighs irritably.
"Fine..Serra can you bathe Ellie please?"
The girl smiles, nodding and dashes back into the gardens.
"I'll go get the first aid kit." Henry eagerly bounds into the kitchen whilst a frustrated Morrigan is pulled into the living room.
"Lie down and we'll cut that shirt off and take a look."
"Now your undressing me..What would Hook say."
"Shut up and lie down will you.."
Morrigan smirks, gently sliding onto the sofa face first as Henry rushes back in with a water basin, towels and a green first aid pack.
"On the table kid."
He places the items on the coffee table and stands back as his mother begins cutting open the bloodied fabric on Morrigans back.
"What else can I do?"
"Keep her mind busy."
"Her can still hear you you know."
Emma smiles but it soon slips, her stomach churning uneasy when the shredded shirt is pulled back.."Jesus Morrigan.."
White skin blazes red, a dozen lacerations slice into flesh and charred skin is burnt around deeper tares. Small trickles of blood seep from where inflamed skin has split back open and Emma gags, her hand snapping over her mouth and eyes darting away.
"Henry, go help the girls.." Her sons wide eyes stay transfixed on Morrigans back.."Henry go!"
Henry snaps from his daze.."But.."
"Henry please see to Ellie for me.." Eventually the boy concedes and stumbles from the room.
Morrigan can tell the blonds still in shock by the eerie silence washing over them.."Emma.."
"You've been walking around like this for days."
"I got the girls to sterilize the worst of it this morning."
"Regina did this?"
"No, the Evil Queen did."
"Morrigan I think I'm gonna need help if you don't want to go to the hospital."
"Just patch them, I'll attempt to heal myself in the morning."
"Attempt? But what if you fail?"
Morrigan stays silent and Emma shifts anxiously.."Listen, I know you don't like it but just let me get someone else to help or you may end up making your back worse."
Morrigan sighs.."Who?"
"I was thinking mother superior."
"No! There's no way in hell I'm letting that bitch near me!"
"Fine, what about Tinkerbell?"
"Is the fairy known for keeping her mouth shut?"
"Yeah, Id say shes not a gossip."
"She better not be or Blue wont be the only fairy on my list to fry."
Emma quickly pulls out her phone and dials.."If Tink starts gossiping, I'll be the one doing the frying for you.."
Morrigan grins as the blond presses her cell to her ear and wanders into the foyer, have I made a mistake? I always do things for myself..What if the town finds out? But I doubt Emma will say anything, not after what was just said, and if she does, I'll comatose her permanently..
"Shes on her way, and Ellie and Henry have just gone upstairs with the girls."
"Good, I don't want Ellie seeing this. Shes got enough to deal with."
Emma hesitantly slides onto the sofa across from Morrigan and fidgets.."Why did you go back to her?"
"Who?"
"Back in the past, you stayed with the Evil Queen knowing what would happen. We could've gone to Rumple for help but you stayed."
"It was my problem, no one else's.."
There's a deafening silence, both women thinking about their less than ideal adventure into the past.
"Emma, don't tell anyone about Regina, I need you to promise to keep this secret, if word gets out, it could finally send her over the edge, and I don't think Id ever be able to get her back."
Emma shifts.."What about the kid?"
"If Regina eventually wants to tell him then fine. But no one else finds out understood? And Regina doesn't find out you know either."
"Okay.."
There's a knock at the door.
"That was quick." Emma quickly paces to the front door and pulls it open, waving a curious Tinkerbell into the foyer.
"Hey, so whats up? Is Regina alright?"
"Yeah shes fine but its Morrigan I need help with."
Emma guides the skeptical fairy into the living room where Tink quickly refocuses and stares disturbed at Morrigans torn and bloody back.."What the hell happened?!"
Morrigan frowns, straining to glare at the gawping fairy.."That's a very long story. Can you help me or not?"
"Y-Yeah, yeah.." Tink quickly pulls out a small vial from her side bag and hesitantly slides in next to the frustrated woman.."I don't understand though, why cant Regina heal you? Or you heal yourself?"
"Regina's not feeling well and my magics spent. Now are you going to help or should I just kick your ass out?!"
Emma smiles weakly at the apprehensive fairy.."Its been a long twenty four hours."
"Looks like it. Hold still, this will sting a little.."
Gently, glowing green powder is tipped onto the angry torn skin and Morrigan hisses, gritting her teeth as her wounds slowly begin to stitch together and her inflamed flesh returns to its milky color.
The last of the lacerations finally heal over, leaving vivid scars behind and Morrigan releases a steady breath, that feels like heaven..
"There, all done. But the dust wont get rid of your scars I'm afraid."
Morrigan pulls herself up with aid from Emma and runs an exhausted hand through tussled short hair.."I don't care, my bodies like a mosaic anyway."
"Morrigan?"
All eyes dart to a timid Serra who fidgets incessantly under their gaze.
"What is it?"
"Ellie's story."
"Course, I'll be up in a minute." Morrigan pushes herself to her feet and smiles warmly at the retreating girl.
Emma grins.."They look great. You've done a great job working with them."
"Yeah. Well I better put Ellie to bed..Thanks for the help fairy."
"The names Tinkerbell."
"I'm sure it is." Morrigan slides passed the huffing woman and heads for the staircase.
Emma and Tink watch Morrigan slink tiredly up the stairs before the fairy's escorted towards the front door.
"Don't take Morrigan's attitude to heart, shes not really used to being around fairies that don't rile her up."
"Remind me to ask about that later."
Emma grins.."Thanks Tink, we really appreciate the help."
"Is someone going to tell me how she got injured?"
"No, I thanked you for your help so now you can leave!" The pair quickly refocus on narrow green eyes hanging over the banister before Morrigan's ascending the rest of the stairs and disappearing onto the landing.
"Whats got her so angry all of a sudden?"
Emma sighs wearily.."Life.." She pulls the front door open for the perplexed woman.."Don't ask, the less you know, the better for Morrigans temper. Thanks again Tink."
"No problem, tell Regina I'll visit soon okay?"
That's highly unlikely if Morrigan has anything to say about it. Emma plasters a fake smile and nods.."Sure, see you later."
And with a heavy thud of the closed door, Emma rests her weary head on the door frame. Her mind wanders to her childhood and she frowns. Loneliness and people telling you you aren't worth anything never ends well. And with Morrigans state last night and Marian's words..Emma shakes her head weakly. Your an idiot Regina, of course people love you, no matter what you've done in the past..
Emma wanders up the stairs and hears Morrigans voice drift across the landing. She draws closer to the sound and leans against the door frame, listening and watching the witch tell a heroic story about knights and dragons to the rest of the captivated bodies in the room, she really is a good person at heart. Yeah she does some stupid things now and again but shes only human, only a woman who loves her family too much she holds on too tight and ends up in these situations. I don't have the stamina she has, never have, but I can see the similarities between us. The next few days, if not weeks will probably be tough for her and Regina. I'll help anyway I can but I suspect she'll reserve herself and try and go it alone. Perhaps Mary Margret can talk to her, she mentioned her and Morrigan getting friendly in the missing year..Or maybe Hook, she can tolerate him..
"And they lived happily ever after.." Morrigan quietly slips from the bed, ushering the other bodies to the door and kisses her slumbering daughter on the forehead.."Night sunshine.."
The girl groans as Morrigan quietly slips through the door and into the hall.."Henry you can take your room, the girls have their own so unfortunately you get the couch Swan."
"No biggy, I've crashed on the ground in the enchanted forest, how much worse can the couch be."
Henry chuckles.."You guys want something to eat?"
"I'm just going to get some rest Henry. I think the last time I slept in a decent bed was with Swan, and even then she kept hogging the covers."
Emma frowns.."Says the woman who mumbles constantly in her sleep."
"You guys..slept together?!" Henry stares bewildered.
"More like spooned, eh savior?" Morrigan chuckles lightly at the blonds blushing cheeks.
"I was forced into it."
"Whatever you say." Morrigan grins and quietly heads back to Regina's room for some overdue rest.
"If you need anything.."
I know the drill Swan, I'll let you know don't worry." And with a weak smile, Morrigan slips through her and Regina's bedroom door and its closed with a soft click..
