"We love."

Regina had waited a while to think about her answer to that. At first, she was trying to calm herself down. How dare Snow say "loved"?! How dare she imply Emma is dead?!
Then the sadness had sunk in. What if Emma was never coming back? Regina knew she had to think of a better reply; she couldn't yell – not now.

The morning went past quite fast. Nurses had come in to change the flowers, doctors came in to check on Emma, David came in during his lunch break and brought food for both Snow and Regina and the rest of it was just silence. The awkwardness between Regina and Snow had gone hours ago; now it was just a peaceful silence.

When Charming came around for lunch, he told Snow and Regina he would get Henry from school and take him home. Both women thanked him; they were glad they didn't need to worry about that at the moment.

This became a routine for everyone after a few weeks. Charming would work and look after Henry and only visited the hospital at lunch time or on weekends with Henry. Snow and Regina were there beside Emma every day waiting for something, anything. They didn't talk much, but they had gotten over their problems and the silence was just nice without all the hate from the past.

Weekdays, Henry stayed with Snow and Charming, so getting to and from school would be easier, and on weekends, he would stay with Regina at home.

...

One sunny Wednesday morning, Regina walked into Emma's room, shocked to find it empty. Where's Snow? Regina thought as she sat down next to Emma's body.

Regina forgot about Snow after a while as she snuggled up to Emma. This was the first time she had been alone with Emma in months, and she was going to enjoy it.

Hours ticked by, and there was still no sign of Snow or Charming. Regina found it odd but didn't really want to look into it.

Before long, Regina's thoughts and whispers to Emma were interpreted by the one and only Cora Mills. "Mother!" Regina shot up to her feet as soon as she noticed her mother standing there.
"Reggie, darling, I haven't seen you in so long. How are you?"

Regina sighed. "Mother, my wife has been in a coma for months. How do you think I am?"
"Oh Reggie, it will be okay. ... I'm sure she will wake soon." Cora stepped closer to Regina, once again trying to close the gap.

"You always show up at the worst time. Why?! Do you think I'm just going to come running back?" Regina's words were cold and harsh, which made Cora's face drop. "I made it clear last time I saw you: I don't want you in my life." "But Reggie, if you help me get my heart back ... I can love again. I can love you." Regina was angry now; she stalked over to her mother and pushed on Cora's chest. "You could have done that years ago! Before the curse, before Rumple stole it and before I fell in love with a dying woman!"

"But Reggie-"

"NO! No Buts! GET OUT! I want nothing to do with you!"

Cora was quite shocked by that, so she did as she was told. Blue smoke engulfed her, and within seconds she was gone.

Regina just lay back down next to Emma and let her watery tears fall.

...

A few more weeks had gone by and Regina hadn't heard word from her mother; at least that part of her life was good.

It was almost summer, and Snow was already organizing a Fourth of July BBQ at her new house on the edge of the woods. Almost the whole town was invited so she insisted that Regina help her plan while they were in her hospital.

"Snow! Calm down; you have a month to plan this." Regina said as she caught the 'Outside Entertainment' magazine flying towards her. Snow was about to chuck back a witty comment but was interrupted by her husband and grandson. "Henry!" Regina said, her voice perking with happiness; she hadn't seen him all week.

"Mom!" Henry was just as happy.

The hello's were over, and now everyone was sitting around Emma, talking about Henry's day at school and the Fourth of July BBQ. Well, that was Snow mainly, but Charming got some words in once in a while.

Suddenly, Emma's vitals started to drop, and the machines were beeping like crazy. All four visitors jumped up, quickly seeking help. Whale and a bunch of other nurses and doctors came rushing in as soon as they heard the alert. One nurse spoke to all four people. "You're going to have to wait outside."

...

It had been about 15 minutes since everyone was chucked out of Emma's room.
Snow was in the bathroom, Charming was getting coffee and Regina and Henry were in the waiting room.

"Mom, what if it's not okay? What if Ma doesn't wake up?" Henry's voice cracked in that sentence; this was the first time he was really showing his emotions about the whole situation.
"Oh Henry." Regina wrapped her arms around her son. "I promise you: Emma will wake up."
Henry's tears were falling quiet fast now so his words were stuttered. "How can you be so sure?"
Regina rubbed Henry's back before she answered. "Because she wants to wake up."


So I wanted to jump forward a few months so it would have to be chapters and chapters of Emma in a coma. I hope you liked it.
