SQ pairing after angst.
Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to these characters this is just harmless fun. I hope you enjoyed reading as much as I did writing it for you. So without haste here is chapter 4. Rated M for talk of Rape.
Chapter 4
Regina cant contain herself anymore and just crumples onto the ground sobbing with all the emotions of the past and her mother giving her what has always craved just a little too late. But it happened. Emma kneels down beside her takes her hand and rubs her back and says "Hey its OK Madam Mayor. Regina, its OK now. We can handle this, I can help you better than you realize". Cora takes one more step forward and just engulfs her child into a warm embrace as she kneels beside her sobbing child. "Oh Regina, I am sorry, so sorry, come here my darling child. I did not ever want you to find out about your birth father. I wanted you to always have Henry the man who knew you were not his, but yet loved you more than I could ever have envisioned". "He was my daddy, the imp is nothing to me" she spits out. "Mother I am sorry we don't have more time and it will take more time but I think I can learn to forgive you. I will try anyways".
With that Cora stands up looks at Emma and says "remember what I said, look after her don't hurt her or else" and walks off back into the mist. "Wow that was something" Emma says as she just embraces Regina in a hard hug, "Ssshhh its OK Regina. I got you, nothing will hurt you ever again I swear", Regina just snuggles into her neck for a moment before she thinks what am I doing, straightens up and stands and strides towards Henry leaving Emma on her knees. Wow what did I do now Emma asks herself?
Henry has walked up to his grandfather while all that was going on with his mom, not even noticing Cora had got there. He was intent of speaking to his grandmother. He said "Gold" as he wasn't sure if she knew who he was yet, "Henry" Rumple says startled, "why are you here?.". "well I wanted to er..." well he kicks the ground looking down and slowly looks at Milah and then at Rumple again. "Oh Henry" Rumple says "yes. Oh Milah introduction time, this is your grandson Henry. Henry this is your grandmother your fathers mom". "I know who she is" Henry said "I just wanted to meet her". He looks at Milah and asks "is that OK ?"
"Oh my boy, of course it is ok", Milah responds and reaches out for Henry," may I touch you? I cant believe your here. Oh you look just like your father when he was this age". "I thought you had died before my dad was even 9" said Henry. "Well yes, I had but to be honest I made a deal with Hades so that once a year I could look in on Rumple and Bae, but when Bae disappeared I didn't need to look at Rumple no more. I tried to find Bae. I saw him once on his 14th birthday in some strange land and after that it was too painful to see again. I'm sorry you lost him too". "Its OK" Henry said "he died a hero. Well a Hero to me anyways".
Regina had arrived by Rumple then but stood looking like she could kill him on the spot where he stood. He glanced up at her and saw her look and gulped. "Well if Henry is done here I think it is time to go. I really would like to get back to Belle. I don't like leaving her alone this long". Henry looked at his mom and then took a step towards Milah and hugged her tightly and said" it was nice to meet you grandma. I am sorry it took so long and that we do not have longer". Milah looked at Regina and said "he is a joy his mother must be so proud of him". Regina says "I am very proud of my son"." Huh I thought she was his mother" pointing to Emma who is now walking towards them all too.
"Oh" Henry said "yes she is my mom too" , Emma he points at her "gave birth to me, but well long story short she had me in prison as dad dumped her I was given up for adoption and mom adopted me". "The Evil Queen is your mom". Henry laughs and said "well lets see … your my grandmother , he is my grandfather 2x oh yeah I just found out he is my moms dad too. Emma is Snow White and Charming's kid, so I'm a real prince too. She is the savior who broke moms curse. They don't want to know it yet, but they both love each other and have true love too. I am OK with this as I have my family then whole again". "Wow so much has happened" Milah says. "Yeah we came here to get Hook back for my Ma, but he wants to be here with you. Mom lost Robin to his wife who was here, so we all going back empty handed". "Oh" Milah says as Emma arrived at the group. "I am sorry, I didn't mean for you to lose your love too". "Well he chose you" Emma said coldly to her. "I will get over it just make sure he stays out of trouble he does have a knack of having trouble follow him wherever he goes".
"OK we need to go" Regina says she cant stand to be here no more. She needs a drink maybe a bar full of booze to drown out her day and time to think. "Is everyone ready?" Rumple asks. They say goodbye to Milah and Hook and walk away into the mist. Rumple calls the boat again and off they go back to Storybrooke.
