"Mom, Mama! I can't reach my zipper!"

"I'll be there in a minute, Skyler!" Emma called out to her 8 year-old daughter.

"You fix her zipper, I'll clean his shirt," Regina said to her wife.

Emma made her way up the stairs and into her second daughter's bedroom. She saw her in the bathroom, looking at the mirror. She was wearing one of her favorite dresses. Although she was struggling to get it on. Her hand tugged against the zipper many times, but it wouldn't budge.

"Mama!" She said as Emma walked in. "I can't get it to work,"

"Well let's fix it then," Emma replied warmly. She bent down to her level, and took the zipper. She pulled it down until it moved freely, then pulled it up so it went all the way up.

"There we go," she said, smiling down at her.

"Thanks, Mama!" She replied, giving her mother a hug. Before she said anything else though, her face dropped.

"What is it, sweetie?" Emma asked.

"That would've been a good opportunity to practice magic," she said, looking at the floor. "If I don't start learning soon, I may never become good at it! I'm already behind, Willow said she was casting spells since she was six. Why don't you and Mom teach me?"

Emma let out a scoff,

"You might want to fact-check anything your older sister tells you, because Willow couldn't cast a proper spell until she was fourteen." She started, then looked her daughter in the eye. "Skyler, why is it so important for you to learn magic right now?"

"So I can be like you, Mom, Willow, and Aunt Zelena," she replied, pouting.

"Skyler, did you know that I didn't even know that magic existed until I was twenty-eight years old?" Emma said, grinning. "It took me a long time of practicing before I could get it right, and I was the Savior! Your mom had known about magic her whole life, but she didn't start casting spells until she was eighteen."

"I guess," she said, looking up a little bit. "But I still want magic,"

"That's okay, but you love your brother, Henry, right?"

"Of course,"

"Well, he doesn't have magic. Would you love him any more than you already do if he did have magic?"

"No,"

"It's the same way with you. Having magic won't make you any better or worse, and it doesn't matter when you learn to use it,"

"Okay," Skyler replied, hugging her mother again.

"All right, now let's go get your brother and mom so we can get going. They better not hold us up!" Emma said playfully.

The two blondes walked down the steps together and waited by the door. Soon after, Regina came walking with their son(who ended up just changing shirts). The four of them then walked to their car together, and drove to Storybrooke high school.

"Mom, Kaiden pushed me!" Skyler yelled from the backseat, glaring at her twin-brother.

"After she kicked me!" Kaiden retorted, sending a glare back.

"Both of you better behave yourselves. Keep your hands to yourselves. This is Willow's special day, and you two better not be arguing," Regina threatened them both.

Sighing, they each turned the other way and didn't say a word to one another for the rest of the ride.

Once they arrived at the school, they immediately met up with the rest of their family.

"Henry!" Emma called out for her son. He waved at her, then walked up with his wife and daughter.

"Hi, Lucy," Emma said to her granddaughter, smiling. She waved, but instantly ran up to her aunt and uncle to say hi to them.

"We've got seats saved," he motioned for them to follow him into the crowd.

Sitting down already, was Snow, Charming, Neal, Zelena, and Robin. The rest of the family walked into the row and sat down in the open seats. Skyler of course, sat next to her favorite cousin.

"Is it scary?" She asked her.

"Is what scary?"

"Walking across the stage,"

"Oh, for graduation?" Robin replied. "I mean, last year I was super nervous for it. But it's short and easy. But you don't need to start worrying about that yet, little one."

"Okay," she simply said.

Before long, Dr. Hopper walked to the stage.

"Since I started working at the high school, these kids have never failed to make me proud. Each and every one of them. I can't wait to see what their futures bring us. So without further ado, may I present this year's class to you?"

The crowd applauded as he finished, then waited in silence as names began to be called.

It was safe to say that all three kids were bored out of their minds. All they wanted to do was get up and play together, but they knew they had to wait. It was almost Willow's turn.

"Willow Mills," her name was finally called.

The raven haired and green eyed girl walked across the stage. She grabbed her diploma, shook hands with Dr. Hopper, then walked off. She received several loud cheers from her friends and family in the crowd.

After the ceremony, they managed to find Willow in the crowd of students. She had her arm wrapped around her girlfriend, Vidia(it turned out that those fairies were real too, and the purple fairy was around the same age as her, and they hit it off).

The pansexual girl gave her girlfriend a quick goodbye kiss, then went to join her family.

"I can't believe I did it!" Willow let out a squeal as she embraced her mothers' hug.

"We couldn't be prouder, Will," Regina said to her daughter.

"Yeah, you've done so well and we're so happy for you!" Emma added on.

Willow hugged them both again, then greeted the rest of her family. Kaiden, Skyler, and Lucy all ran to her and cornered her into a big hug. After they finally let go of her, Willow walked up to her grandparents.

"I can't believe you're officially done with high school, congratulations, Willow!" Snow said, hugging her granddaughter. David embraced her in his arms as well.

Zelena walked up after them, and gave her a quick hug and a congratulations before moving on.

Henry then greeted his little sister with a hug that lifted her off from the ground.

"I'm proud of you, Will," he said sincerely.

"Thanks, Henry," she replied, wrapping her arms around his neck as he set her down.

Neal and Robin smiled at her proudly, but didn't hug.

"Told you it wasn't so bad," Neal said to his niece.

"You were right," Willow replied, smiling. "Now that I'm out of high school, we can finally be roommates together at SBC,

"You're gonna love it there," Neal told her. She grinned, then hugged her friends.

After that, Willow walked back up to her mothers.

"Thank you both so much, for everything," she whispered to both of them.

"Anytime, Kid," Emma replied, grinning. She looked down at her daughter, then looked into the crowd. "I think your girlfriend is waiting for you, you should go to her,"

"Okay, I'll catch up with you guys in a bit!" Willow replied, running back off to Vidia.

After she was out of view, Regina looked at her wife and felt tears forming in her eyes.

"I can't believe she's all grown up now," she said.

"Me neither, but we did pretty good, didn't we?" Emma replied with a grin.

"We sure did, Miss Swan,"

"Oh Regina, when will you learn that it's Miss Mills now. It's been Miss Mills for 16 years,"

"Oh please, you still love it when I call you Miss Swan while we're making lo-" she was cut off by multiple voices.

"Mom, Mama!"

"Grandmas!"

"Mama, Mom!"

"What is it?" Emma asked curiously.

"Skyler did magic!" Lucy and Kaiden yelled at the same time. Emma and Regina gave each other a glance, then looked down at the kids again.

"Really?" Regina asked. "What did she do?"

"We were playing tag with the sticks, and just as I was about to tag her, she made my stick disappear!" Lucy explained.

"Show us," Emma encouraged.

"Okay!" Skyler replied enthusiastically. She picked up another stick, then walked back to them. She closed her eyes, then concentrated hard. A cloud of pink smoke surrounded the stick, but it didn't disappear. It splintered into several different pieces, then fell to the ground.

"See?" Kaiden piped in.

"Wow, it seems she did do magic," Regina said, amused.

The three children smiled, then ran off again and started gathering more sticks.

"That's gonna be an adventure, having to go through a child learning magic again," Emma said to Regina, letting out a scoff.

"We can handle it," Regina replied, linking their hands together. Emma gave her wife a quick kiss,

"Together, we can handle anything,"

"Of course we can. Now, let's go start off that adventure, shall we?"
