Story Time for the Charming Family and Company


I was ready, so I began to tell my tale that I'd chosen to tell.

"This was about 6 months after I was forcibly brought by Caesar to live in his estate in the city of Rome, Italy and I really missed my people and family a lot. Livia noticed this, and went out that day, and bought me a black cat. Much like the ones you see when you see statues of Bastet. She knew that I was really depressed, because both of my brothers were killed already, and I was the only one of my family that was alive. She found me this one particular day, sitting on the edge of the fountain in her favorite flower garden."

"Are you bored of it yet Henry?"

"No, I'm getting more and more entertained with it. Please continue Aunty Selene." He prompted me with the cutest Puppy Dog Eyes.

"Before I do though, I feel as though as I should tell you something."

"What is it?"

"You have the cutest Puppy Dog Eyes, this side of the Nile. I will never be able to deny you anything, my sweet."

"Oh really?" He asks mischievously.

"Really, really."

"So, where was I? Oh yes, I remember now. So, I don't quite remember what had happened that made me so upset, that I had to go to the fountain to calm down, but I was there and …." I never finished my story, because I fell asleep shortly afterwards.

Dr. Whale had come back in and told everyone, "Alright, everyone except Snow and Charming have to leave. Your visiting hours are over, only immediate family …. Aka Snow and Charming …. Can stay. Sorry about this. You can come back in the morning."

Even though they were all saddened by this, they took their leave. Henry was the last to leave. Before he got off the bed, he hugged his Aunty Selene, and told her, "Good night Aunty Selene. I'll come back in the morning, and talk with you again. I love you."

At that, he quietly and quickly, slipped off the bed and walked out of the room to his other mother, Regina.

"That was so sweet of Henry to say that to Selene." Snow told Charming, after observing their grandson saying goodbye for the night to his Aunt.

"That was indeed. I wish we could understand what she went through after our supposed suicides, and the hell Octavian put her through, while she was living with him." Charming replied to Snow's previous statement.

Unbeknownst to them, as a result of Charming and Snow wishing they could understand just how horrible and the horrid things that Selene had to go through, Selene inadvertently granted their wish.
