By alliancing himself with Regina, Bae thought that he was playing his cards right. True, he wasn't telling her his true motivations or in fact his plan and Regina didn't care as long as it meant getting her son back. In Regina's eyes, Emma had no right to him, she hadn't raised Henry, soothed ever fever and endured every tantrum. What she just could wrap her head around was the fact that Henry chose Emma. Graham chose Emma. She had nothing but when you have nothing you have nothing to lose. The first day that Emma finally let Henry go back to school, under the watchful eye of Snow, Regina was waiting at the school gates at recess.
"Henry." She announced herself as she walked towards Henry who was sat down at one of the picnic table with a couple of his new friends. The friends that he had found a lot easier to make since he had been with Emma. At the sight of the Queen, his friends scurried away in fear, leaving Henry by himself.
"What are you doing here?" Henry asked.
"I came to see you." Regina replied as if this was a perfectly plausible response with none of their past history.
"I don't want to talk to you. Grams said that I didn't have to talk to you if I didn't want to." Henry replied. In truth the woman who he once called "mom" scared him. He didn't truly 100% believe in the curse until it had been broken. The stories he had heard about the Evil Queen and her exploits against the Enchanted Forest, as well as his family, scared him to death. Regina was so focused on Henry and finally seeing him again that she didn't notice Graham enter the school gates to check on Henry as Snow came into view at the other end of the yard, Snow and Graham both rushed towards Regina, not seeing the ten year old who was hidden from view.
"Dad!" Henry called urgently, rushing to Graham and then straight into his grandmother's side when she held out her hand to him to bring him closer to her.
"Go with Snow." He ordered as Snow rested her hands on Henry's shoulders, holding him in front of her as if to show Regina where he belonged.
"Graham." Snow began to argue.
"Your majesty, please take Henry inside." Graham asked polietly. He had been given strict instructions from Emma as to what to do when Regina finally reappeared and he was going to follow them to the letter.
"Henry doesn't want to see you and Emma doesn't want you anywhere near him." Graham said, crossing his arms across his chest.
"Henry's my son." Regina argued, trying to intimidate him, she didn't scare him, his hopefully future father-in-law scared him and in comparison to him Regina looked like a puppy.
"Henry's my son. Mine and Emma's. He calls us mom and dad and if he doesn't see you then he damn well doesn't have to." Graham replied harshly, turning on his heel and walking away.
"What did she want?" Snow asked, standing by the door waiting for him to return.
"She wanted to see Henry." Graham answered calmly.
"I hope you told her to beat it. Are we going to tell Emma?" Snow asked.
"I'm going to have to tell her but not today." Graham replied. Snow smiled, although neither Graham nor Henry had told her, she still knew what was going on.
James' fatal flaw was his loyalty, he had missed out on 28 years of his daughter's life and 10 years of his grandson's so he was determined to make up for those lost years. As King it was his duty to protect his people but how could his people have any faith in him if he couldn't even protect his own family.
"Rumplestiltskin." He demanded as he walked into the pawn shop, the bell above the door ringing with a loud shrill, broadcasting his entrance.
"Your majesty. How can I be of assistance?" Gold replied, leaning carefully on his cane from the door to the store room.
"I want to make a deal." Charming announced.
"I'm listening."
"What would it take for your son to stay away from my family?" Charming asked. Gold limped around to behind the counter.
"Ah. You see, I have as much control over my son as you do over your daughter; I play no part in this. All I ask is that occasionally I get to see my grandson. I trust you know what it feels like to be reunited with your child only to find that they have a child of their own. No deal." Gold said with half of a smirk before limping back to the store room, signalling that the conversation was over.
Sorry for the delay, it's been hectic applying to uni and moving house. Don't do those two things are the same time, especially when it involves your boyfriends parents. Speaking of which, please thank Si for making me write this!
