I am very sorry for the long wait for this chapter. I hope the length made up for it. Enjoy!

-Present Storybrooke-

It was quite a shock to Regina finding out that she wasn't just unconscious for a day but she was out for six whole days, she was unbelievably shocked.

It had now been minutes since Henry told her how long ago the town was put under Maleficent's sleeping curse, and Regina was still standing there, in The Charming's doorway wide eyed, mouth slightly parted.

"Mom... Mom are you alright?" Henry stuttered.

Shaking Regina out of her daze, she quickly hid her shock and wiped all expression off of her face giving herself a complete poker face.

"Oh nothings wrong dear, may I come in?" Regina replied questioning her son.

"Y-ya, of course" Henry again responded back with still a slight stutter and was very confused by his mothers reactions while stepping out of the door frame in order to let her in the small cozy apartment.

Stepping into the apartment, closing the heavy door behind her Regina made her way to the coat hanger stand. While taking off and hanging her trench coat realizing nobody else was around she questioned Henry where everyone else was.

"Ma and Gramps are both at the station working. I think Grandma and Neal are at Granny's, I'm not sure about that thought".

"Have you been home alone for a long time?" Regina replied back trying to keep her son figuring out her shock and figuring things out for herself.

"No, about an hour only. Why?"

"I just worry about you Henry, your my whole world." She said cupping his face and then giving a quick kiss to his forehead.

"Have you eaten recently? Would you like to go out for lunch?"

"Oh, I'm starving! Do you think we could stay here and you could cook something instead of going out though? I really miss your cooking." Henry sweetly told his Mother.

Touched at this Regina gained a bright smile on her face, nodding her head and making her way to the small kitchen, while quickly wiping away the one tear that slide down her face before Henry would see.

"Is there anything you would particularly want?"

"Anything with apples" Henry replies back with a slight laugh and grin on his face.

"I can do that!" Regina answered back with a smirk in place.

Half an hour later Regina had Waldorf Salad and Bacon-Apple Dates prepared for herself and Henry. Calling Henry over to set the table Regina went back into the kitchen grabbing two glasses and the chocolate milk; Henry's favourite.

Going back to the Dining table setting down a glass in front of each of them and pouring some milk in their cups.

Before she even had a chance to take a bite, the front door of the apartment came swinging open with a stumbling Emma Swan with piles of paperwork in her hands. Rolling her eyes with an amused smirk on Regina's face she watched as Emma tripped over the shoe she just took off and dropped all of the files she was carrying.

Now feeling sorry for the women and since she was in her apartment eating her food Regina politely asked Emma if she would like to join them. Gladly accepting the offer of food Emma came quickly to the table with a plate, silverware and glass for herself.

"So, what are we eating?" Emma questioned.

"Waldorf Salad and Bacon-Apple Dates!" Henry told his other Mother with a huge smile on his face.

"Gross! Dates! Don't those taste awful?"

"No! There great! Especially when Mom makes them! You have to try some!" Henry excitedly told The Savior.

Cautiously taking a bite of the food, Emma's eyes widened in shock and exclaimed that it was amazing.

Watching Emma and Henry chat Regina remembered that they hadn't even realized that she had not been around for almost a week and started feeling down, so she quickly finished the little bit of food on her plate, took it to the kitchen and placed it in the dishwasher.

"Well, I should be going, I have some things at the office that I need to take care of" Regina told Henry and Emma.

"Aww, already" Henry whined.

"Yes, I'm sorry dear. Maybe, you would like to stay at the manor with me later tonight? Of course if that's alright with you Emma".

Gasping Henry excitedly asked Emma if he could.

"Sure you can kid!"

Walking towards the coat hanger and putting on her coat, Regina said her goodbyes and excited the apartment with a sigh.

Regina didn't know why she ended up walking to Gold's Pawnshop but there she was standing in front of the building reaching for the door handle.

I hope you liked this chapter! As I am slow at updating this story would you rather keep waiting the same amount of time for each chapter or have me write multiple chapters and post them all at once?
