Good hello! Ugh! You have no idea how thrilled I am that you guys are loving this story. I swear I get more and more thrilled about writing a new chapter every time I see a review. I also realized how much I was skipping when watching the ending of season 3. Let's just say then when Neal died I was in a full shutdown mode. Also, I told my friend the first way I thought about bringing back Rumple, at the end of the story I will tell you what it was however, for dramatic effect, I am going to let you keep guessing. ONTO THE CHAPTER! HUZZAH!

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Once Upon a Time. If I did, Regina would have a bigger role in season 4.

The yellow bug drove into the town of Storybrook and parked on the side of the street. It was late at night and the streetlamps were on giving an off-white glow to the town. Emma and Neal stepped out of the car soon followed by Killian. Henry, however, was fast asleep in the back of the car.

"It's really back huh?" Emma said, leaning against the car door.

"That it is. What now, Emma?" Neal asked, looking over at his wife.

"Find my parents." She pushed herself off of the car door. "You both stay here. Try not to wake up Henry."

The blond briskly walked down the very familiar street and walked into the building that held her parents loft. She took a deep breath before knocking on the door. She was wondering of anyone was awake when the door was swung open. There stood David, his mouth forming an 'o' shape.

"Hi." She stated before taking the silence as a bad thing. "Don't-don't close the door. My name is-"

"Emma."

"David?"

David stepped forward embracing his daughter in a tight hug, hand finding the back of her head. Emma was quite relieved that he actually remembered her. That was one thing she didn't have to worry about. Speaking of which.

"You remember." David stated, still gaping at his daughter.

"You remember." Emma countered back smiling slightly.

"Of course, what-what are you doing here?"

"Hook found me and said that you were cursed."

"We're back, or we never left, or well, we don't know."

"But you remember who you are?"

"Yeah, but this curse, we don't know who did it or why. All we know is that our last year has been wiped away."

"Wiped away?" Emma said, head tilting slightly.

"All we remember is saying goodbye to you. It feels like yesterday."

"But if you can't remember then how do you know it's been a-"

"Emma?" Mary-Margaret called out.

Emma looked upward to where her mother's voice was coming from and gaped. She saw completely how they knew it was a year. Mary-Margaret hugged her daughter tightly then pulled back, still holding her hands.

"As you can see, a lot has happened." Emma looked down at her very pregnant mother and breathed out slightly.

(Author's note: Sorry for using the dialogue from the show. I loved it too much to scrap it. Also I didn't know how to write a new reunion for them. However, we are now transitioning to my own stuff. Wee! I don't think the rest of the story will be like the show, but some of the main stuff we will see. Okay back to the story. Sorry!)

The blond felt very uncomfortable. Was there something in the water or did her mother and her self-consciously plan this out before she left. Emma swore that if anyone else was pregnant, she might go crazy. Well, she may be slightly amused if Regina was pregnant but that is beside the point.

"Wait so is Neal with you as well? What happened in a year, Emma?" David asked.

"Um, yeah, he is with Henry who is sleeping. I can tell him to get Henry in a room at Granny's and come here if you want to talk with him."

Emma pulled out her phone to text Neal when she heard a gasp coming from her mother. She looked up to see Mary-Margaret gaping at her.

"Emma…" She whispered lightly looking down at Emma's hand.

To be quite honest, Emma didn't understand how she didn't notice the rings when they were holding hands not just a few seconds ago.

"You're married? To Neal I'm assuming or..?"

Emma nodded.

"Yeah, April 5th." Emma stated playing with her rings. "Henry had begged for us to get married sometime since we apparently waited so long. We just went to the courthouse and made it official."

David stood there just gaping at his daughter. He didn't move or blink or breath until Mary-Margaret nudged him a little.

"Looks like we missed another of her firsts." David frowned a little bit.

Emma could swear that she saw tears threatening to spill from his eyes but ignored it because she swore that if he started crying, then she would start crying and then her mom would start crying and well, we wasn't in the mood for a crying fest.

"So now what do we do?" Emma asked.

"Try to figure out what is going on."

They all nodded. Emma yawned and blinked several times.

"After you get some sleep." David grinned.

"We'll meet at 8:30 at Granny's. How about that?" Mary-Margaret said.

"Sounds good, 8:30 it is."

Well, 8:30 is nice except for waking up at 6:30 feeling nauseated. What better way to hide the glorious sound of vomiting with the sound of a shower, at 6:30. When Emma finally had gotten out of the shower she looked at the screen on her phone. 7:45. No way she could have been in there for that long.

When Emma walked out of the bathroom, she saw Neal sitting up in bed, rubbing his eyes. He looked up to see her and smiled.

"I was beginning to think that you died." He whispered as Henry was still fast asleep.

"Nope, but I sure felt like it." Emma chuckled and sat down on the bed.

Neal instantly went to wrap his arms around her and pulled her close to his chest. They lay their snuggled up together, Emma making no resistance. She buried her face deeper into his chest and took in his scent.

"It was your cologne. Don't use it."

"Why not?" He kissed the top of her head.

"Well one: it makes me want to vomit, and two: I like your natural scent better."

"Well if I can keep you from vomiting then I shall toss my cologne in the ocean to never see it again."

They two lay there cuddling for about twenty minutes before they decided to wake up Henry and get going. When everyone was set and ready to head out, they casually walked into Granny's, Neal's arm casually over Emma's shoulder and Emma leaning her free arm on Henry.

The family of three sat at a table waiting for Mary-Margaret and David to show up. Ruby walked over and placed two hot chocolates with cinnamon in front of Emma and Henry and a coffee for Neal.

"Hot chocolate with cinnamon, how did you know?" Henry asked curiously.

"You just looked like a kid who liked cinnamon." Ruby smiled, a hint of sadness in her eyes, before walking back to get another order.

Mary-Margaret and David walked into the diner and waved as them came up to the table.

"Emma, Neal, good morning, and Henry-"She stuttered slightly. "It is Henry right? I'm Mary-Margaret and this is my husband David."

Henry nodded and shook both of their hands. David gave a quick nod to Neal and sat down.

"So how do you know my mom?" Henry asked.

"They are old friends of mine."

Henry raised his eye brow. "Really where do you know each other from?"

"Phoenix." Mary-Margaret said. "Here." David stated at the same time.

"Uh well, Phoenix and then here."

"Wait, I thought you only stayed in Phoenix for that…place." Henry said.

"Yes, we were cell mates." Mary-Margaret stated with a smile.

"Really? What were you in for?"

"Banditry." Mary-Margaret answered, both eyebrows raised.

Henry just nodded.

"So should we order? Let's order." David raised his hand to catch a waitress's attention.

All of the sudden there was a crash of a cup hitting the floor. Emma practically had a heart attack and Neal pulled her closer out of instinct before looking over to see Regina gaping at them.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to startle you." She said.

"It's okay." Henry said and went back to looking at the menu.

Emma stood up and brought Regina to the back hallway and explained what had happened to her.

"So now what are you going to do?" Regina asked.

"We are going to find the caster of this curse." Emma put her hand on Regina's shoulder. "He will remember you Regina. We are family. He'll remember eventually. We just have to figure out how."

Woo! I got over 1500 words. How do you like me now!? Anyway, as you can tell I obviously really love the dialogue of this show and I just don't have the heart to remove it. I'm trying to get out a chapter a day however I am not posting on Sundays because it is generally a very busy day for me and I am barely home to work on a chapter. I hope that you enjoyed this chapter and I'll see you guys in the next chapter. Reviews are the good part of my life. ~Kierstyn
