Everyone piled into the car, Peter Pan kept looking for the sails, to the ship. Everyone, including, Wendy, John, and Michael.
"Wait." Henry said. "How are we going to approach this guy? I mean, Hello, are you Captain Hook, seems a little odd, doesn't it?"
"It does. More importantly-" Mary-Margaret said. "Where did you come from?"
"Down a rabbit hole, into a strange hat. Poof, I was in your world."
"Down a rabbit hole, does that mean Alice is here too?" Emma asked.
"I don't know of an Alice, but I ended up falling down a rabbit hole looking for hook."
"Why didn't you look out on the ocean?"
"Because that's where he wants you to look. Where are my Lost Boys?"
"Lost." Emma silently. "And they need to stay that way, I can't afford anymore mouths to feed."
They arrived at the office of C.W. Hook.
"That's odd." Emma said. "You'd think he be more careful to hide his identity."
"Well, he added a W." August said.
"Touche. Let's go."
Emma walked in, followed by everyone else. "Are you-?" Emma began.
"CAPTAIN HOOK! DRAW YOUR SWORD!" Peter yelled.
C.W just looked dumbfounded. "Regina's curse said you wouldn't remember."
"Little kids always remember. It's how Santa and the Tooth Fairy stay alive."
"They stay alive because of good health and exercise. Well, I don't know about the jolly old man. I'm sure the elves have something to with that. Besides that, you're a grown man, not a child!"
"A grown man with the heart of a child." Peter Pan said.
Hook drew a weapon, only instead of a sword, it was a .22"
"What kind of sword is that?" Peter asked.
"The kind of sword you need to get away from." Emma said pushing him to the ground.
"I'll shoot the wittle tyke, if gets in my way."
"Of what?" Emma asked, reaching for her gun as well.
"Helping the Queen take over this Godforsaken place."
"Sorry, I'm sheriff, and you just drew a weapon on a minor." She said shoving Henry in front of the barrel, and then shoving him away. "Come with me." She said putting Hook in handcuffs.
They arrived at the station a little while later, Emma had to call for backup in order to fit everyone. Emma found three children waiting by her desk, all dirty, and looked to be homeless.
"Peter, are they your's?" Emma asked.
"Yes ma'am."
"Peter!" The children yelled.
"We missed you!" They said hugging him.
Emma just sighed. "I don't have housing for all of them."
"You come to my house. They take your room. Mary-Margaret can watch everyone for the night, until we can arrange something tomorrow." August suggested.
"Mary-Margaret, would you mind?" Emma asked.
"Yes, but I don't see a better option on the horizon. Go, I've got the fort."
Emma and August arrived at his place. "Why didn't we just bring everyone here. There is way more room." Emma asked.
"Because I wanted to be alone with my girlfriend for once." He said playing with the trim on her shirt.
"Is everything about sex with you?"
"How often are we alone?"
"You didn't answer my question."
"You didn't answer mine."
"I know we're not alone very often. I'm sorry." Emma said. "But, we'll be alone even less if I get Henry back, and alone even less than that once this baby is born."
"All the more reason to live while we can."
"No, August. I just want to sit on the couch and have a conversation."
About fifteen minutes later, the two people were on the couch, kissing, he on top of her.
"Wanna take this to the bed?" He asked.
"No." She said biting her lip.
He quickly undid her clothes, Henry walked into the house.
"Of course." Emma said shoving August off of her, and clothing herself with a nearby blanket.
"What do you need buddy?"
Henry ran off to the back bedroom, in tears.
"See. I told you."
"You never said Henry would be here."
"I implied." Emma said putting back on her clothes and running after Henry. "However, it was nice. Way better than talking."
"Why talk with your mouth when you can talk with your body?"
"Isn't that a Marvin Gaye song?"
"I don't know."
Emma walked into the room, Henry was on the bed, crying.
"Henry. We need to talk."
"I don't want to."
"Oh believe me, neither do I. But, we need to."
Henry raised his head. "You just wanted to come here for sex!"
"No, but things do happen."
"You can say no."
"Henry, let's start by answering why you came over tonight, hm?"
"It was getting crowded over there. Mary-Margaret dropped me off. She said you wouldn't mind."
"I don't. But you need to knock."
"Sorry."
"Not a big deal. It happens. I walked in on my foster parents on more than one occasion. It's awkward, but it does happen."
"But, August isn't the father of the baby."
"Okay?"
"He isn't my father either?"
"Okay?"
"That means you've had sex with three different men, that I know of. Aren't adults supposed to only have sex with one person?"
"In a utopian society, yes. But unfortunately, we live on a planet where, Graham is dead, your father is a deadbeat, and August is a good friend."
"My father is a deadbeat?"
"Why don't you think he's around?"
"I always assumed he didn't know I existed."
Emma thought for a moment. "You know buddy, he probably doesn't. Being so young, I don't think I ever told him." She said sighing heavily.
"I just wish you guys were still together."
"I do too sometimes, but ultimately, we're not, and neither are Graham and I. August and I love each other."
"Until he turns into a puppet."
"I'm not going to let that happen."
"Where's Hook?"
"Why?"
"You need a lawyer, right?"
"Yes, what are you getting at?"
"Why don't you cut him a deal?"
