Double trouble
Sorry about the wait folks! You see, my laptop's charger broke, and because it sparked in the shop it was classed as a dangerous product so they had to take my laptop too when they took the charger to try and fix it :(. I don't have my laptop back yet, but I have managed to connect my old laptop to our new router! (It didn't want to play nice for ages). So, I'm back!
OnceUponAChloe wanted a oneshot of Snow and Emma both finding out they were pregnant at the same time.
Snow sat just staring at her belly. It had only been three years since she'd last been pregnant. She'd given herself a three decade break the time before. She gently laid a hand on top of her belly. She'd only found out she was pregnant the previous week, but she could swear her belly was already bigger than it should be. Was she just imagining it?
Snow snapped into concentration when she heard one of the floorboards in the hall creak. She turned her head to look to the doorway and found Emma standing there. Snow gave her a smile.
"Hi honey." She greeted her. "Have a bit of a lie in?" Snow asked. She'd assumed Emma had left early to get some errands done, but since she was still in her pyjamas she assumed not. Emma nodded, coming into the room and sitting down.
"Yeah, didn't sleep so well last night." She sighed. Now that Snow could see her properly, she could see the bags under her eyes. It looked like she hadn't slept properly for more than just the one night. Snow frowned.
"What's the matter?" She asked Emma. Emma shrugged, picking at a loose thread on her pyjama bottoms.
"Oh, because that convinces me there's nothing wrong…"
"I'm pregnant." Emma blurted out. Snow was taken aback, she hadn't expected that. Emma looked up, biting her lip.
"I would have told you when I found out a couple of weeks ago, but I'm still trying to wrap my own head around it." Emma said quietly. Snow's face broke into a smile as she walked over to Emma and sat beside her, pulling her into a warm hug.
"Oh Emma, that's wonderful!" She said. Emma chuckled.
"You're happy that I'm making a grandma out of you again while you're still in your thirties? That I'm making your three year old an uncle?" Emma chuckled. Snow then realised, she should probably tell Emma her news too…
"I thought Whale was holding back a laugh…" Snow said quietly, thinking back to when she and David had gone to him to confirm the pregnancy. He seemed like he really wanted to laugh at something. Snow had shrugged it off, not making anything of it. But now she understood. He was laughing because he knew Emma was pregnant too. Emma gave her mom a confused look.
"What do you mean?" She asked. Snow smiled sheepishly at Emma.
"Well… I'm going to be having another baby as well." She told Emma. Emma let out a surprised, but happy laugh before pulling her mom back into a hug.
"That's great! I'm so happy for you guys!" Emma laughed, sitting back against the couch. "I never thought I'd be pregnant at the same time as my mother. We don't have to act like that Steve Martin film do we?" Emma asked, grimacing. Snow laughed.
"No, we don't. Our family is much cooler. And I'm not naming my baby Viktor just because Whale delivered it." Snow added.
"No, if the current trend is anything to go by it could be Graham or Killian… do you just want a list of any boyfriends I've had?" Emma teased. Snow rolled her eyes.
"Very funny. I think Snow White is a lovely name for a little girl should you have a girl… just a thought…" Snow said as nonchalantly as possible causing them both to fall into heaps of giggles.
The pair were so busy laughing that they didn't notice David and Henry return from doing the groceries. The boys stared at the two girls, laughing like maniacs on the couch. They then stared at each other, shrugged and walked back outside to get the rest of the bags completely unaware of the situation ahead of them all.
