In Granny's
Red: Εmma, glad to see you old again
Ε: Old? Thanks I guess…
Red: You were such a cutie
Κ: Hi, love… did you have a difficult day?
Ε: Strange day… However, I have some exciting news to share
Κ: More exciting than you?
Ε: come on, stop being charming!
Κ: Admit it, love, you can't resist to my charm
Ε: I found a house!
Κ: With a big bedroom?
Ε: Far away from Henry's room
Κ: I can't wait to explore it… how did you decide it?
Ε: Henry suggested that you won't be a simple visitor
Κ: Do you have something on your mind?
Ε: I don't know.. We decided on baby steps, but I am glad that my son accepts you.
Κ: I always knew he is a clever lad… I am still waiting for an answer though.
Red: Look at Emma who is old enough to drink alcohol. Here you are (she leaves Emma's drink on the table)
Ε: Does Granny know that Ruby is drunk?
Κ: And not able to keep her mouth shut
Ε: Did I miss something?
Κ: Still waiting….
Ε: OK! Open book, I get it… so, this morning I had a disagreement with my father
Κ: and you decided to leave home?
Ε: May I spend the night with you?
Κ: I would never imagine saying so, but you have to go to your parents
Ε: ΟΚ (hurt)
Κ: Love, you can spend as many nights as you wish with me, actually you can spend the rest of your life with me, but I want you to be OK
Ε: As long as we're together, I'll be great
Κ: Don't make it harder for me, Emma, you know I can't resist…
Ε: Then don't
Red: Look at Emma who is old enough to kiss pirates
Ε: What in hell is going on?
Κ: The she-wolf can't accept that you got older
Ε: Why? Did she know me at my childhood and I don't remember it?
Κ: Somehow
Ε: Time travel? parallel universe?
Κ: magic
Ε: Apparently, but I still don't get it.
Κ: We wanted to show your parents their mistake
Ε: when you say "we" ?
Κ: Regina and I
Ε: What did you do?
Κ: a 4-year-old eidolon of you. Just for a little… for them to understand…
Ε: ARE YOU CRAZY? WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT? You know what? There is no point in discussing that
Κ: Emma, wait! I did it for you!
Ε: FOR ME? You showed to my parents what they desired the most and then you got it back, for me?
Κ: They should understand
Ε: in the Echo Cave… you were there…
K: Sorry, lass… I hadn't thought of it…
Ε: You had no right to mess with my parents
Κ: Be as angry as you want with me, but, please, go talk to them…
Ε: After that, I'm not going to see them again
Killian watches the yellow bug leaving and calls David
Somewhere in the woods
D+ MM: Emma!
ΜΜ: It's late… it's cold and dangerous…Where is she?
D: We will find her, as we always do
ΜΜ: but, with Emma we are always late…
D: Don't lose your hope! We'll find her and explain to her…
They see the yellow bug. They approach it and they realize that Emma has been crying.
ΜΜ: Emma?
Ε: (with strong voice) I'm fine. You can go back to the loft
D: Not without you
Ε: I can't go back there
D: Emma, I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said in the morning
Ε: (whispering) You had what you wanted just for a few hours… and they took it from you
ΜΜ: We want YOU, Emma
Ε: But in which age?
D: In all of them.
Ε: If only I could be 4 again to make you happy
D: As long as we have you, we're happy
Ε: My brother is the proof that this isn't true
ΜΜ: Emma, this is not the time to become jealous of your brother. We love you both
Ε: Do you really believe that? That I'm jealous of a baby? You know what? I don't have anything to discuss with you and since you aren't leaving, I am.. (she starts the engine of her car)
ΜΜ: Emma, please
D: We may not be perfect parents, but, please, give us a chance
Ε: Do you still want a chance with me? After what you had seen?
ΜΜ: I would have given everything to be able to raise you . Yes, it was my dream… but all it matters is you
D: We are and will be your parents and we'll always love you no matter what
Ε: Aren't you angry with me?
D: Emma, you are the one who should be angry with us. We got a glimpse of your childhood
ΜΜ: why haven't you ever talked to us about it?
Ε: There's no point. What's done is done…
ΜM: I want to know everything
Ε: Then, just ask for it
ΜΜ: Have you thought that I didn't care?
Ε: (bravely) I think that you only care about yourselves. About what you lost. And I get that
D: You're wrong
Ε: Then, show it to me! Do you know what I have been thinking since I learned what had happened? That you wouldn't want me anymore!
D: No!
Ε: That I wouldn't be enough… that you wouldn't accept me… that you would hate me for taking back from you what you really wanted. But I shouldn't feel in this way
ΜΜ: You shouldn't… but Hook is right. This is our fault
D: I meant each and every word I told you before. I couldn't ask for a better daughter. Sorry , I didn't show it to you
ΜΜ: We saw what we wanted, but also what we were afraid of. You had a difficult childhood, Emma, and we are to blame for that
Ε: The curse and Gold's evil plan are to blame for
D: Let's go home and continue this conversation with a cup of hot chocolate
MM: With lots of cinnamon
In the loft
Ε: Henry loved our new house
D: We want you here
Ε: I've made up my mind
ΜΜ: You are so stubborn
Ε: I hear it runs in the family
ΜΜ: Emma, please, don't leave
Ε: No matter what we told, I am 30 years old, with my own child and my…my… let's call it relationship
ΜΜ: And do we cause you any problems?
Ε: Yes, especially when you have a newborn baby and you are becoming judgmental
D: We support you
Ε: it didn't seem so in the morning
D: He makes you smile. That's enough for me
ΜΜ: He made a whole plan with Regina to make us see something that we should have understood on our own since the curse was broken
D: It hurts me to say so, but the pirate was right. I keep on failing you
Ε: It wasn't his place to say that
D: Maybe, but someone should have shaken me. Don't you agree?
Ε: No… for the first time in my life I have people who treat me nicely and I don't want to lose that
D: You won't. I promise. But in the meanwhile you can tell us anything that worries you. After all, we are new parents, we have to learn somehow
ΜΜ: Emma, we are and will be here. We won't leave you
Ε: (she hugs them) Thank you! Do you really believe that Killian makes me smile?
D: What's that on your lips as soon as you told his name?
Ε: And you are OK with that?
ΜΜ: You deserve to be happy. He cares about you more than we do and he proved it today
D: Even if he was a prince, I wouldn't be OK… It's my little girl we are talking about
Ε: Seriously?
D: How is Henry's girlfriend?
Ε: I got it
D: Go find him…
Ε: I have something to do first
Emma goes upstairs and returns holding a box
Ε: If you are curious, feel free to see its contents. I know it's safe now
ΜΜ: Thank you!
Ε: But that doesn't mean I'm not moving
D: As long as you know you're more than welcome here
Ε: (she smiles) Goodnight
D: Don't be late
InGranny's
Ε: Someone's got better at darts
Κ: Emma!
Ε: Sorry, I was unfair. I was afraid and… no one has ever done something like that for me
Κ: I shouldn't pry, love, but since you returned from New York, they have been making the one mistake after the other
Ε: Even that is better than what I got used to
Κ: I know and that's why I wanted it to become even better. You deserve it
Ε: Do you realize that you deserve the best too?
Κ: But I've already had it! Enough tears for one day… what would you say, love? Should we go upstairs? I want you to describe me your new bedroom?
Ε: What about describing you what we are going to do in our new bedroom?
THE END
I would love to know your opinion…. please, review
