Chapter 25

Emma opened her eyes to see Mary Margaret's green eyes looking at her in surprise.

"Emma" she heard Mary Margaret's voice say in disbelief as she pulled her into a hug.

Emma gave her a confused look, she didn't understand what was happening, why was Mary Margaret hugging her like that, why was she touching her with no hesitation. If there was someone who understood Emma's reluctance towards being touched it was her roommate, so why the hell was she hugging her now?

"Mary Margaret...what..." she stuttered in surprise as she pulled away from Mary Margaret's arms, and that's when she saw it. This woman was no longer Mary Margaret, she was Snow White, her mother. She was in her mother's arms, the arms of the women responsible for all the things that had gone wrong in her life, the women that had sent her to a world she knew nothing about, in the hope that one day she would come back and save them

"Please leave" she said with strength and anger as she quickly removed her gaze from the confusing look that took over Mary Margaret's eyes.

"What" Mary asked in surprise as she took a closer look at her daughter.

If Emma didn't know any better she could have sworn that Mary Margaret had no idea what was happening, but she had too, Henry said she had broken the curse and that meant that this women remembered who she was and what she did.

"Please I don't know if I can handle this now" she pleaded, she needed to get away from this women as fast as possible, the way she was looking at her; with so much love was scaring the hell out of Emma.

She took a deep breath to calm herself; as much as she hated the women that gave birth to her, she couldn't help but feel bad for hurting Mary Margaret. The women that had bailed her out of jail, the women that had opened the doors to her house for a stranger she knew nothing about, these women had done everything for her since the time she got to this town. The last thing she wanted to do was hurt her, but at the same time, she was her mother. She was the person responsible for everything; if it wasn't because of her and her desire to save people she would have had a normal life. If it wasn't for her she probably would have been able to keep Henry.

Henry Emma thought as panic took over her body. Were the hell was her son, the last thing she remembered was rushing into a room to see her son lying dead on the bed, then she gave him a kiss and he magically woke up. Then…then there was a purple fog and after that everything went blank

"I need to see Henry… I need to see my son" she cried in panic as she attempted to get up from the bed but all the wires were keeping her in place. Why was she wired to the bed, what the hell was happening.

"Emma sweetheart..." she heard Snow say with such a tender and loving voice that it made Emma's blood boil, as all the anger and resentment she felt from being abandoned came rushing in.

"Don't call me that" she yelled. She really didn't want to hurt Mary Margaret; she really didn't want to hurt her friend. But when she called her that she couldn't help but feel the need to cause her pain, she couldn't help but want to push her away

"What's going on" her mother asked with confusion and hurt written all over her face, which just made Emma angrier. Why the hell was she acting like she had no idea what was happening.

"What's going on is that I remember" she yelled "how could you do this to me. How could you abandon your own daughter?" Emma asked with so much hate and disgust in her voice that it made Snow take a step away from the bed

"Emma..."

"I remember everything Mary Margaret" Emma interrupted "or should I call you Snow White?" she said with venom reaching at the sound of her mother's name

"Emma hon... Emma what are you talking about" Snow cried in desperation and confusion.

Emma gave her an incredulous look, why was she acting like she had no idea what Emma was talking about

"Henry was cursed by your evil step mother and I picked the book… and saw everything. How could you send me to a world you knew nothing about" she yelled as the machine started to beat harder "how could you… how could you do this to me…" she cried as the machine kept beating harder and harder.

She felt her heart beating faster and she was finding it really hard to breath. But her anger was just eating her up, how could this women be standing here as if she had done nothing wrong. But before she could keep yelling at her mother she saw Whale come into the room with a group of nurses quickly behind him

"Snow I need you to get out" he said, and Emma felt her heart betting faster at the name Whale had just given Mary Margaret, he had called her Snow, which meant that her mother did remember and that just caused Emma's anger to multiply.

"Emma breathe... Emma I need you to calm down" she heard him yell.

But Emma was too consumed by the anger and hatred she felt towards the women that claimed to be her mother "how could you" she yelled "how could you" she cried as desperation sank in

"Emma" she heard Snow pleading, but it was as if she was far away, everything was turning black as she struggled to get out of the bed. She needed to see Henry; she needed to see her son, she needed to grab him and get him away from this crazy town.

But after a few struggles, everything turned black, as she once again fell into unconsciousness.

"Snow I need you to get out" Whale said with strength as he grabbed her arm to drag her out of Emma's room.

Snow was to consume by what had just happened that she didn't even realize that Whale had managed to get her out of the room

"No I…I need to get back in there" she complained as she tried to make her way back into Emma's room "let me go Whale… let me go" she yelled with more authority "she needs me… I need to get back in there…I…"

"Snow" Whale interrupted "Emma has just woken up from a coma" he tried to explain "its normal for her to act this way, and considering we have no idea what caused it or how she came back" he said trying to make her understand "but now she needs to rest, Snow…right now Emma needs to take it easy and for some reason you are making her uncomfortable so…"

"I don't care" Snow interrupted "I…"

"Snow" Whale interrupted once again "Emma will be asleep for a while… why don't you go talk to David and Henry and once she wakes up I'll come and get you"

"No… I want to be here when she wakes up" Snow said stubbornly "I don't want her to be alone" she explained in a weak voice.

Whale gave her a look of understanding but he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, this women was so different from the women he knew as Mary Margaret, she was just so stubborn, there was no way to reason with her so he gave in "alright…but now you can't be in here, we are going to run some tests and I can't have you in the room" he said with authority "once I'm done I'll come and get you"

Snow gave him a small nod and made her way back into the hallway, she knew that there was nothing else she was going to get from Whale, but that didn't mean that she wanted to see Charming and Henry. She needed to be alone, she needed some time to think, she needed some air "can…can you tell them" she said in a small voice "I need some air" she explained as she saw the confusion in his eyes

Whale was going to protest, but once he looked at the broken expression in Snows eyes he nodded and made his way into waiting room.

Snow watch him go as she made her way out of the hospital, she needed some air, she needed some space to think about what had just happened. She needed to clear her head and wrap her mind around the things that had happened before she came back in there and faced Emma.

Outside the hospital it was growing dark and therefore it was getting really cold, but Snow didn't mind, right now she needed some space, she needed time alone to think of what had happened just a few minutes ago.

When she was back in the Enchanted Forest, she would do something similar, every time things got to hard or she needed some space she would get out into the dark and think. She would think about what had happened and then she would try to come up with a solution to that problem. Most of the times her solutions would just cause them more problems, but she still found the outside calming. She didn't know what it was, but being outside brought her a sense of peace, being outside helped her forget about her troubles, whether it was losing Charming or running away from Regina, being outside helped her see hope, it helped her believe that not everything was lost.

Without realizing she was now standing in front of her apartment, the little place that had grown to be her home. She had so many memories in that place, both good and bad. This was the place she had lived in for 28 years, this was the place where she cried when David broke her heart, or the place where she hid when Cora was killed, but most importantly this was the place she shared with Emma. This was the place she lived in with her daughter, even before she knew they were family.

In this place Snow had so many memories with the blond. This place was the place her daughter had called home; the only place she ever called home. A surge of guilt rose through her as she thought of that. How could it be that this was the first place her daughter had called home, why had it taken twenty-eight years for her baby girl to call a place home, how could people in this world be so cruel. Emma was perfect, she was kind and smart and pretty, how could it be that no one found them in them to love her, why had no one dared to show her little girl love.

If there was someone who deserved love more than anyone in the world, it was Emma, her daughter had gone through so much, she had suffered so much that it broke Snows heart just to think about it. And that was considering that she didn't know too much about her baby's past, actually now that she thought about it she didn't know anything about Emma's past. Emma was so closed up when it came to talking about her time in the system that Snow couldn't help but feel a little scared. What was so bad about her past that Emma had prohibited Peter Pan to even mention it, what had Emma gone through that she didn't want them to know. And even though Snow respected Emma's wishes to keep her past in the dark she couldn't help but want to know, she couldn't help but want to learn everything about her daughter, even if it broke her heart into a million pieces. She wanted to know everything there was to know about Emma; she wanted to learn everything about her little girl.

With that a new worry came to mind. What the hell had happened at the hospital, had Emma really forgotten everything since the curse broke. Had Emma forgotten all their time together, had she forgotten the time in the Enchanted Forest, or their time in Neverland, had Emma really forgotten that she had called her mom or that she finally admitted to lover her?

No that couldn't be possible, God couldn't be so cruel. Emma had to remember, she had to remember her and Charming, she had to. She couldn't forget everything they had been through, she couldn't forget that they had finally managed to become a family.

A surge of guilt and anger rushed through Snow as she whipped the tears that were coming out of her eyes. Her daughter had woken up from a coma, Emma had found her way back to them and all Snow could think about was the fact that Emma might have forgotten her. It was ridiculous, her daughter had come back from the death and she was crying over the fact that she might not remember that she loved her.

She felt a strong hand made its way down her back and slowly pulled her into a hug.

"Everything is going to be ok" she heard Charming's voice mumble in her ear "she found her way back to us and she'll do it again" he said as he pulled her closer to him "everything is going to be ok" he mumbled

"She doesn't remember Charming, she doesn't remember" she cried once she found her voice.

"I know… I know but she came back to us Snow… she's with us and she is alive" he said as he pulled her away from him so that she could look at him in the eyes, but Snow had them close, clearly wanting to avoid eye contact.

"Snow look at me… please look at me" he begged "I know that this is hard for you…I know that her forgetting your time together is hard to handle, but she's alive Snow, she is alive and she is with us" he smiled "and right now she needs us more than anything…"

"She kicked me out of her room Charming" Snow interrupted "she yelled at me for abandoning her… and the look in her eyes Charming" she said as the tears came down from her eyes "the look in her eyes was one of so much hate… so much anger, that…that" she paused as a sob came rushing through her mouth "she hates me"

"Hey" Charming said strongly as he pulled Snows chin up so that this time she was forced to look at him "she could never hate you"

"Oh she does" Snow interrupted quickly "you didn't see the look in her face" she cried

"Your right I didn't" he said strongly "but I've known her long enough to know that she would never hate you" he said "if what Whale told me it's true, and Emma seems to have forgotten everything up until the curse was broken, then she remembers Mary Margaret" he said with a smile as he finally got Snows attention "and she loves Mary Margaret… you brought her walls down once, I'm sure you'll do it again" he said as he placed a kiss on her forehead. He knew he had finally gotten to her. He knew her more than he knew himself, he knew that Snow never gave up, so the only thing he had to do was give her a challenge, he only had to give her something to do, something to look forward too.

"So Whale told me Emma woke up" he said "want to go check on her" he asked with a small smile as he took her hand and slowly pushed her forward.

They walked for a while, both lost in their own thoughts but before they could reach the entrance of the hospital Snow came to a stop "what happens if she doesn't want to see us" she asked in a broken voice

"Will wait" he said strongly "she can't run from us forever" he smiled

"This is NOT a joke David" Snow yelled once she saw his smile, it was driving her crazy to see how calmed he actually was

"I don't think I can take rejection again… I don't think I can lose her again" she cried

"You won't…we won't" he said as he pulled her into him "the only way we'll lose her again is if we don't try to get her back" he smiled and pressed a kiss in her forehead once again "we can't give up now Snow…We can't… she needs us"

Snow took a look at the man holding her tight and gave him a small smile. It sometimes amazed her how good he actually knew her. He always knew what to say make her feel better.

"Your right" she said with as much strength as she could find "let's go check on our little girl" she said as she opened the door that would lead them to Emma's room.

Emma felt light-headed and weak.

The memories of the past moments came rushing into her mind. She had made the decision to leave town. Just before she left, Henry had eaten that apple turn over and fallen to the ground. Then everything happened to quickly, she grabbed the book and a memory took over her mind. She was watching Mary Margaret and David crying next to a baby, they looked so broken as they placed a baby girl into a wardrobe. That baby was her, Emma recognized her baby blanket, and that woman wasn't Mary Margaret that women was no other than Snow White. Snow White was her mother, just like Henry had told her a thousand times.

Then she had fought with Regina, which led her to hear the truth from the Evil Queens mouth; the truth that she in fact was the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming. Then if things could not get any weirder she had fought a dragon, a freaking dragon, and all to get a potion to save her son. She had been tricked by Rumpelstiltskin to retrieve that potion just so that he could take it and bring a god damn purple smoke into this town. And when she thought everything was lost, she had kissed her death sons forehead to have him magically woken up from a sleeping curse, the same curse that had once befallen her mother. Then everything went blank.

As hard as she tried to remember she couldn't understand what the hell she was doing lying on a hospital bed, she didn't understand what had happened that landed her in this situation. Had she been hurt by the dragon and with all the adrenaline from Henry she didn't even noticed? Or had she collapsed from that purple smoke? Or…

"Hey Emma, how are you feeling?" Whale's voice interrupted her thoughts.

"What am I doing here" Emma asked quickly ignoring Whales question, she was really curious about what had happened and she had no time to be polite.

"You just came out of a coma" he explained quickly

Emma mind went completely blank, what the hell was he talking about "a...a coma?" she asked in disbelieve once she found her voice.

"Yes..." he answered quickly; there was no better way to put it

"How long" she asked wanting to go straight to the point

"What?" he asked in confusion

"How long have I been in a coma" she clarified with a little annoyance. She was tiered of not getting the information she needed

"Just two days" he said quickly

"Two days" Emma mumbled in surprise. For moment she thought it had been weeks, considering how strange people were acting around her "and how did I fall into a coma" she asked with curiosity

"That I don't know" he said gently as he pulled a chair next to Emma "your fath... David brought you to the hospital unconscious... A few minutes later you fell into a coma" he explained

"David brought me here" she asked in disbelieve.

Why would David bring her to the hospital if she was already there with Henry? What the hell had she missed

"Yeah he came in here asking me to take care of you as soon as possible" he explained

"Did he say what happened" she asked

"No he didn't have time to" Whale quickly explained

"Oh ok" Emma said in a defeated expression. She could have sworn that Whale would give her the answers she so desperately needed, but apparently she was wrong.

"When can I leave" she said after a long moment of silence, she hated hospitals more than anything in the world, they just brought up bad memories.

Whale looked at her with a weird expression as the question took him completely of guard "well Ms. Swan you've just come back from a coma so I suggest you stay here for a few days..."

"No" she harshly interrupted "I want to be discharged now" she said with more authority, just like her mother had done a few hours ago when she was asked to leave Emma's room.

Whale looked at her in surprise this woman was just like her mother "well I'm afraid I can't do that Ms. Swan" he said with the same authority she had used just a second ago.

"Yes you can. I feel perfectly fine" she quickly argued

"I'm sure you do" he said in teasing tone "but you still need to be under surveillance considering you came out of a coma..." he explained but was quickly interrupted by a clearly annoyed Emma.

"I know my rights Whale" she argued "if I want to go. You have to let me" she said stubbornly

"Emma... It's not wise to let you go" he said but Emma just gave him a hateful look and turned around

"You can't keep me here against my will Whale. So go get the paper work so I can leave as soon as possible"

"I'm afraid I can't do that" he said and got up from the chair "the second you came through that door you became my responsibility and I'm afraid I can't let you go yet" he said as he made his way out of the room "now get some rest. I'll come later to see how you are doing" and with that he made his way out of the room leaving a frustrated Emma behind.

"Snow" Whale said coming out of Emma's room "we are done with the tests"

"And how is she" Snow asked quickly

"Everything seems to be fine" he said "it's as if nothing had happened" he explained in confusion "as Mr. Gold said…it's like magic"

"So can I go back into the room now" she asked as she attempted to make her way into the room.

"Yes" Whale said standing in her way "but…even if the tests seem to be fine, Emma just managed to come back from the dead, and magic or not that still causes some trauma to the human body, so I am just going to ask to take it easy on her… just don't stress her out…please" he said

Snow gave him a pointed look and nodded. She was tiered of people acting like they needed to protect Emma from her. She was her mother; she would never do anything to hurt her.

She slowly opened the door to Emma's room. Taking a deep breath before finally coming in, she felt fear quickly making its way into her body as she got closer to Emma's bed. What if Emma rejected her again, what if she kicked her out of the room like she had done a few hours ago.

She was about to turn around and exit the room but a strong hand kept her in place "we can do this" Charming said in her ear "I'm here with you" he mumbled again.

She gave him a small nod as she felt her confidence coming back and together they made their way next to their little girls bed.

The look her daughter had on her face broke Snows heart into a million pieces. Emma looked so distressed, she looked in so much pain that all Snow wanted to do was pull her into her arms and take her pain away, but she knew that if she did that she would just make things worse. So she took a deep breath and pulled a chair next to Emma's.

"How do you feel" she asked

Emma's face shot up at the sound of the woman's voice, at the sound of her mother's voice "I'm fine" she said in a small voice as she moved her gaze away from Snows begging eyes

"Good" Snow said quickly "do you feel any pain" she asked in concern

"No" Emma responded quickly

"Do you…"

"Where's Henry" Emma interrupted in a harsh tone, she didn't feel like answering Mary Margaret's interrogation

Snow gave her a painful look but quickly answered her daughter's question "his with Regina"

"What" Emma yelled and she attempted to get out of the bed but Charming quickly held her in her place "let me go" she yelled "don't touch me…don't" she said strongly and Charming quickly removed his arms from Emma's body as a hurt expression crossed his face

"What the hell is my son doing with her" she yelled "she almost killed him"

"Emma… Regina is his mother" Snow said quickly, trying to calm her daughter

"NO HE IS MY SON" Emma yelled "she lost all her rights the day she potion him" she said angrily "and why the hell are you defending her" she yelled at Snow "aren't you guys supposed to hate each other or something" she asked as a dark laugh escaped her lips at the irony of Snow defending the Evil Queen, at the irony of having to think about fairy tales being real.

Snow flinched at the sound of Emma's voice but she ignored it and kept her eyes locked to her daughters "Emma a lot of things have passed" she tried to explain

"I don't need to hear your excuses or explanations" Emma interrupted harshly "I just need to see my son"

Snow was about to say something but a small voice interrupted her

"Mom" Henry yelled as he made his way into the room "Mom your back" he cried as he pulled her into a hug "your back"

"Hey kid" she said while tears came rushing out of her eyes. He called her mom, her son had just called her mom "I'm so happy to see you kid" she said as she pressed her lips on his forehead "I'm so happy you are ok" she cried.

Snow and Charming smiled at seeing their daughter reuniting with her son. Snow couldn't help but feel some jealousy run through her as she saw the way Emma held Henry, she was holding him with so much love that Snow couldn't help but wish it was her in Emma's arms instead of Henry

"We should give them some space" Charming mumbled in her ear as he pulled her out of the room.

She wanted to protest, not wanting to leave her daughter, but she knew that considering the circumstances they were constantly in it was better to give Emma some time alone with her son.

Emma held her son tightly to her chest. She felt his breathing getting louder and louder as he attempted to stop his sobs.

"Henry what's wrong" Emma asked as worry came through her at seeing her son in so much pain.

"I'm just happy you're ok" he said in a small voice "I was so scared" he cried "when I saw you lying there dead on the floor" he said as his voice broke from the memory of his mother's dead body.

"Hey" Emma said pulling him closer to her "I'm here, its ok…its ok, I'm ok" she said with more strength "I'm right her"

"I know" he said as he held tighter "I know but I was still so scared" he cried "when he made that cut into your hand…when he licked your blood… when… when" he cried even harder, finding it impossible to continue as the memories came rushing in. Even though his mother had come back from the dead, even though she was here with him he still couldn't get over what they had gone through, he couldn't get over the fact of what had happened to them in the past few months.

Emma stared at Henry in confusion. What the hell was he talking about? She didn't remember anyone cutting her hand or licking her arm, she didn't recall that ever happening to her and especially not in front of her son.

She pulled Henry out of their embrace so that she could take a look at her son's broken face. And that's when she saw it; there was a huge cut that made its way from her elbow to the bottom of her hand. She traced the cut with her hand, wincing at the pain that came with the contact. She stared at the cut in confusion for a long moment, trying to remember how the hell that had gotten there. Was it the dragon, had her fight with the dragon gotten her that cut without even noticing it. No it couldn't be, even with the adrenaline of having to save Henry surging through her veins she would have notice a cut of this magnitude wouldn't she? Yes something as big as that wouldn't be easy to ignore, so why the hell wouldn't she remember how she got that

"Mom is everything ok" Henry asked as he noticed the surge of fear that took over his mother's expression

"No" Emma mumbled quickly "how…"

"What's wrong" Henry interrupted in a small voice, full of worry "do you want me to get Whale" he asked quickly

"No" Emma interrupted and pulled him closer to her "I'm fine" she lied "I'm fine it's just that I can't remember how I got this" she said while pointing at the cut in her arm.

Henry looked at her in confusion before pulling away from their embrace so that they could look at each other in the eye "what do you mean you can't remember" he asked in confusion

"I don't know how I got this" she explained quickly "do you" she asked in curiosity

"Yes" Henry answered quickly as panic took over his voice "he did it to you" he explained

Emma stared at him in confusion "HE" she asked

"Yes…Peter Pan" Henry said with so much hatred in his voice that it made Emma flinch "he did that to you in front of everyone" he explained

Emma looked at him like he was crazy "Peter Pan" she said in disbelieve "as in the boy who never grows up" she asked in confusion.

Henry just stared at her, confused about what was happening. Why was his mother acting so strange, why was she acting like she had no idea what he was talking about "yeah him" he said with a little frustration "all though his not really a boy" he finished

"Of course not" Emma said with a little sarcasm. Everything she had known about fairy tales so far had been wrong, starting with the fact that they were not just stories made up to make kids believe in happy endings, they were real, they existed and in fact they were part of her past. So why would Peters story be any different?

"So who is Peter Pan" she asked in sarcasm "is he Sidney Glass" she said with a joking tone, she had a feeling he never really liked her, which will make sense about why he would attack her once he had the chance.

With that Henry's look just got stranger, he was looking at her like if he had just found out she was an alien "mom are you ok" he asked in concern

"Yes kid, I already told you I'm fine" she said quickly "so tell me… did I get right?" she asked with a teasing voice attempting to ease the tension in the room, but Henry kept looking at her as if she had suddenly gone crazy

"Kid what's wrong" she asked in concern

"You don't remember" he said in understanding "you don't remember do you" he asked

"What are you talking about kid" Emma asked in a worried tone, but Henry ignored her as he already had questions of his own.

"What's the last thing you remember" he asked with concern written all over his face

"Let's see" Emma said quickly "I remember kissing your forehead" she said slowly "then you woke up… and then there was a purple smoke" she explained "after that everything is blank" she finished

The look that took Henry's face at her confession frighten Emma. He looked at her with so much pain in his eyes that it made Emma regret everything she had just said "Henry whats wrong" she asked in concern

"What do you mean by everything goes blank" he asked in confusion

"Henry how much am I missing" she quickly asked, quite frankly he was scaring the hell out of her with his expression and sudden silence

He stared at her in confusion, not knowing how to explain to her what had actually happened. He was just a kid he had no idea what he was supposed to say. But at the same time he was frustrated, if the last thing Emma remembered was the purple smoke, then that meant she had forgotten EVERYTHING, that meant that all Emma remembered was breaking the curse. Which will mean that she didn't remember her time in the Enchanted Forest, or their time in NY, that meant she didn't remember him meeting his father, or her time with her parents. That meant that Emma was back to being the same close and broken person she was before the curse had broken. That meant that she was once again the person that didn't trust anybody and that felt so unworthy of love.

He couldn't help the tears that took over his eyes at the thought of once again losing his mother. Because even though Emma was back with them she didn't remember all the time they had spent together, she didn't remember how they had finally become the family they always wanted to be.

Emma couldn't help but stare at her son, his expression looked so broken, as if she had suddenly told him that the curse being broken was just a dream. She quickly whipped the tears that were staining his cheeks, and pulled him closer to her "Henry, whats wrong" she asked in concern "why are you crying"

"You don't remember" he mumbled "you don't remember anything" he cried

Emma felt panic rise through her body at Henry's words, what had she forgotten, and why was it so important for Henry that she remembered it

"Hey kid' she said while lifting his face so that he was forced to look at her in the eye "what don't I remember?" she asked

"You don't remember anything" he cried

"You're gona have to be more specific" she said with a small smile

"Emma it's been six months since you broke the curse" he said in a broken voice

Emma's face paled, she felt the color being drained from her body. Six months had passed since she broke the curse. She had forgotten six months of her life, how was that even possible. What the hell was Henry talking about

"Henry" she said once she found her voice again "what do you mean by six months" she said attempting to hide the panic that took over her voice, but one look at Henry told her she wasn't doing a very good job

"You broke the curse six months ago" he said once again

"So I've been in a coma for six months" she asked curiously "but Whale said…"

"No" Henry interrupted "you've been in a coma for two days"

Emma looked at him in confusion "two days" she mumbled more to her self than Henry "two days" she said again "which means that I've forgotten the last six months of my life" she said with a sad tone

Henry looked at the confusion in his mothers expression and felt like his heart was breaking into a million pieces, so he did the first thing that came into his mind and pulled her into a hug, he held her tighter and hoped that with this he could at least relieve some of his mother's pain

They stood there in silence, both lost in their own thoughts, both taking advantage of each other's company until Emma couldn't take it anymore; she needed to know what was happening

"Henry" she said while pulling him away so that they could look at each other's eyes once again "want to tell me what I've missed" she asked in a broken voice

Henry gave her a confused expression and nodded, all he wanted to do was take away some of his mother's pain "I would love to mom" he said with a smile "but I think I'm not the one you should be asking" he said with a small shrug

"What do you mean" she asked in confusion "did I leave you" she said with panic "did I abandoned you once I broke the curse" she said a fear took over her, did she really leave him once again. No that couldn't be possible; she would never leave Henry willingly after seeing his dead body lying on the hospital bed

"No" Henry quickly said interrupting her thoughts "of course not" he yelled while taking her hand into his, hoping to calm her down "you didn't leave me, you stayed with me but it wasn't for long" he said with a sad smile, remembering how she had been pulled into the portal and he hadn't seen her for weeks

"What do you mean for long" she said with panic

Henry gave her a small smile as he got comfortable in his mother's bed, this was going t be a long day he thought "right after the curse broke you were pulled into a portal with grandma" he said "you were trying to save my mom" he explained

Emma looked at him in confusion, did he just said that she was pulled into a portal just to try to save Regina? And did he just call Mary Margaret grandma or had she imagined that part.

"I fell into a portal" she said in disbelieve "trying to save your mom"

"Yes" he said with so much pride in his eyes that it made Emma a little uncomfortable, no one had ever looked at her like that

"And did you just called Mary Margaret grandma, or did we meet Regina's mother" she asked, secretly wishing that he said the second one, she really couldn't get over the fact that Mary Margaret was her mother

"We did meet Regina's mother" Henry said with a sad smile, and Emma released a breath she didn't know she was holding "but I meant Mary Margaret when I said grandma" he said quickly and didn't miss the confusion that took over Emma's eyes "my mom's mother is a witch" he said quickly

Emma couldn't help the smile that took over her mouth when Henry referred to Regina's mother as a witch. Of course she was a witch; she had Regina as a daughter.

"Why are you smiling" Henry asked in confusion

"It's nothing kid" Emma said quickly not wanting to share her thoughts with Henry "so how did we meet Regina's mother" she asked wanting to get the attention away from her, knowing that if there was something Henry loved was a good story

"I don't really know" he said with a shrug "that's something you have to ask grandma" he explained

At the mention of Mary Margaret's name Emma felt her body weaken, there was no way that she was going to ask her anything, there was no way that she was going to talk to her right now "so what else happened" she asked quickly, wanting to avoid any parts of the story that would need Mary Margaret's explanation

"Well I don't really know" he said "you were with her for about a month" he explained "until you came back through the well"

"I came back from where" she interrupted

"From the Enchanted Forest" he said with a smile

"The Enchanted Forest" she yelled in surprise "as in the place I was born" she mumbled

"Yes you were there with grandma" he explained

"Kid can you stop calling Mary Margaret grandma" she said in a small voice "it's really freaking me out" she explained in embarrassment

"But she is…" he argued but was interrupted by Emma's pleading voice "please" she said

"Ok" he said once he took a look at the anguish that took over his mothers face

Emma looked at the sadness in Henry's voice and quickly regretted asking him to stop calling Mary Margaret grandma, but it was making her really uncomfortable since it was a constant reminder that she had lost her best friend to her mother

"so what happened when I came back" she asked wanting to distract Henry

"Grand…Mary Margaret woke up grand…David from the sleeping curse and we went to…"

"Sleeping curse" Emma interrupted

"Yes he made my mom curse him with the sleeping curse so that he could help you and Mary Margaret find your way home" Henry explained with a grin as Emma monitored him to continue as the shock of what she had missed left her speechless

"So then we went to Granny's to celebrate and then Cora…"

"Cora?" Emma interrupted

"Regina's mother" Henry quickly explained "she made us all believe that my mother had killed Archie…"

"Wait, wait" Emma interrupted once again "Archie is dead" she asked with hurt written all over her voice

"No" Henry explained quickly "she made us believe he was"

"Oh" Emma said in understanding

"Yeah well we all blamed my mom until" he made a stop as he looked at the expression his mother had on her face, she really didn't remember anything "until Archie appeared on our doorstep and told us it was Cora" he said "then Mr. Gold came to the house to cash in the favor you owed him"

"He finally cashed that in" she said with relieve, owing him a favor was making her really uncomfortable

"Yes he did" Henry said quickly

"And what was it" she asked with curiosity, Henry just smiled at his mothers curiosity she looked anxious to hear the rest of the story. But he couldn't help the nerves that took over him as he thought of what was coming next; Neal.

"Well he wanted your help to find his son…"

"Wait he has a son?" Emma interrupted; she really didn't see that coming

"You never read the book did you" Henry asked just to ease the tension, he had always known she never really read it

"Well" she said guilty "not all of it"

"You don't have to lie" he said with a smile

"Alright I didn't" she said with embarrassment "but now that it's all real I don't think I really have a choice" she said in a joking tone

"Yeah" he smiled "your gona have to read it if you want to know everything about this town" he smiled

"True" she said with a shrug "but you said Gold has a son" she asked quickly "did I find him" she mumbled in curiosity

"Yes" Henry said as a sad expression took over his face as he remembered how he met his father and the fact that he will never see him again.

"Henry what's wrong" she asked when she took a look at his broken expression "who was Gold's son" she asked "did you know him" she said as Henry's eyes turned with tears "did he hurt you" she said with more seriousness "Henry who was Gold's son"

"Neal" Henry said in a small voice "Neal Cassidy" he said in a broken voice.

He then felt his mother's body move away from him and before he could react Emma had managed to disconnect herself from the machines as she quickly made her way out of the room. Leaving a shocked and hysteric Henry behind.
