A late start to the day as expected, getting up passed noon is what happens when one goes to bed after sunrise. However, Emma was still as energetic as she was last night. Feeling the rush of successfully completing the spell and reuniting with everyone. This energy was beginning to become more chaotic though. Also adding fuel to the fire was the fact Emma still felt a heart racing anxiety she couldn't shake. Anytime she was alone she was reminded of how horrible it was alone in the dark, hopeless. Thinking Emily could show up at any moment and rip her away from her newfound happiness. Also, there was the little fact that Lily had also returned to this world but run off before Emma could see her and explain, let her know they were ok now. All these things together creating a perfect recipe for a disaster. Still with all this on her mind Emma smiled as she looked at herself in the mirror letting out a deep breath, she made her way downstairs.

Feeling the need to stretch her legs and knowing Elsa was eager to have a moment to vent about everything that had happened to them. Emma suggested they meet for a little walk and talk. Mary Margret and David were going to interject having fears regarding Emily's whereabouts. The stopped themselves though noticing Emma was so eager to go she almost knocked Elsa and the drinks she was carrying on to the floor, when she came to their doorway. Promising it would just be a quick walk around the block they let them go, still both watching tensely as Emma slid down the last banister.

"You seem kind of hyper" Elsa said concerned wondering if it was effects of everything that happened to Emma yesterday.

"Just got a lot of energy today, what about you?" Emma responded with a smile walking at quite a fast pace.

"I'm fine, thanks to you" Elsa said smiling but avoiding eye contact.

"Seems like somethings on your mind" Emma asked concerned as Elsa didn't seem to be enjoying the moment.

"It's just, it kind of shocked me yesterday to see a part of my home again" Elsa replied.

"In a good way or?" Emma replied concerned.

"I kind of gave up on going home, now that I have a shot at that life again" Elsa paused letting out a deep breath realising she wasn't sure how she felt a mixture of joy and fear overwhelming her. "I don't know if I want it anymore" Elsa finished.

"Yeah, I can understand" Emma replied.

Emma understood the feeling all too well and it never really goes away. Giving up on herself ever having that perfect life and family. When you've already grieved that kind of loss and carried on, you can't risk going through that pain again. It was hard to get out of the habit of locking the door before even checking to see what lay behind it. /span/p

"I just, can't take much more pain" Elsa replied.

"Here, here" Emma replied as she held up her cup and Elsa smiled as they clinked them together in agreement.

"Where is Killian this afternoon?" Elsa asked.

"With Liam his got a lot of adjusting to do, as far as well everything here" Emma replied with laugh.

"So, his trying to explain what electricity is" Elsa replied realising it would very strange coming to this place without the false memories. If she imagined herself in the same position it would probably freak out.

"Yeah basically, were up catching up tonight" Emma said.

"He's probably already overwhelmed after meeting everyone last night" Elsa said remembering his reaction when he saw her use her magic, so overwhelmed at that point Liam looked numb to it.

"Yeah, Storybroke is very different from the world he came from" Emma said.

They continued to walk through the streets in silence for a moment thinking over everything that unfolded last night. There was still a warm afterglow around town and people smiled as they walked past, Emma looked at everyone's faces hoping to see Lily's among them.

"Any sign of where Lily might have gone" Elsa asked like she knew exactly what was on Emma's mind.

"No, it's going to be hard to find her, she was always the best at running I learnt everything I know from her" Emma said with a sigh.

"Do you think she'll even want to come out of hiding" Elsa replied.

"When the good things happen it's hard to" Emma started then trailed off.

"Let them" Elsa said finishing her sentence.

Emma nodded in agreement she knew the feeling all too well, even now after destroying the creature and freeing everyone and knowing it was her love for them, that pulled them from the darkness. It was hard to accept that she wouldn't be alone again. Letting yourself think everything can be ok opens you up to extreme pain like the kind Emma felt when she was alone after completing the spell. Now that she new how much she loved them all, filled Emma with dreed that she may lose them again.

As they kept walking and talking about all their hopes and fears Emma couldn't stop herself from continuously scanning her surroundings thinking about how scared Lily must be. How scared Emma still was. Emma's speech was becoming more fast paced as she continued talking and scanning their surroundings. Walking faster and faster. The truth was although she was hoping to see Lily's face, she was also fearful that she might see Emily's. Emma could still picture her sly smile, anxiously waiting for her to show up again and take her from her home.

"Emma can you slow down, I can't keep up" Elsa said jogging slightly as Emma raced ahead grabbing her arm to try and slow her down.

"Sorry I was just caught up in the moment" Emma replied with a fake smile.

"Seems like your caught in something" Elsa replied concerned.

"What?" Emma replied sluggish as she stopped suddenly.

"Or just coming down from a high" Elsa said getting more concerned see Emma's complication turn pale white.

"Yeah, I think that potion is wearing off" Emma replied.

"Sit down" Elsa ordered pointing to the bench just up the path, as she grabbed her phone.

Emma obliged Elsa's instructions sitting down on the bench seat, her foot still tapping frantically on the cement path as she tried to slow her breathing, the panic setting in. Emma focused on that just breathing in and out slowly feeling herself calm down. Before Emma had realised any time had gone by at all the cruiser had pulled up on the curb, her parents inside. Elsa grabbed Emma's hand like she was getting her drunk friend home and ferried her over to the car. Even though she was just trying to help, the feeling of being ushered over to a car gave Emma more flashbacks and she froze.

"Wait, were are you taking me?" Emma said pushing Elsa away.

"Emma your parents are here, there just taking you to the doctor" Elsa told her.

"Why, I feel fine" Emma replied with a smile as she jumped up showing how much energy she had.

"You look terrified" Elsa said.

Elsa let go of Emma sensing it was causing her more stress. The high that Emma was on, wearing off even more she looked exhausted. This prompted Mary Margret to get out of the car seeing there was an issue and Emma was growing increasingly more anxious. As she came over rather quickly Emma automatically backed off feeling increasingly jumpy.

"Hey, it's just me" Mary Margret said slowly down like she was approaching a frightened animal.

Emma looked up at Mary Margret focusing on her face almost like she needed the reminder that Mary Margret was still alive once that had sunk in. Emma realised she must be freaking everyone out. Able to relax knowing she wasn't back in that moment but here, surrounded by people she cared about. Emma felt another rush as her adrenaline kick in feeling momentarily better not wanting to go to a doctor and becoming a further burden.

"I'm fine" Emma said but her voice was shaking.

"I'm sorry if you think where being a little neurotic, but we are doing this" Mary Margret said sternly.

"It's just that, we found you in a mausoleum, bleeding from a head wound" David called out from the driver's seat concerned eager to get going.

"Right" Emma replied accepting defeat and getting into the back of the cruiser.

"Do you need a ride Elsa?" David asked.

"No, I'll be fine I'm meeting Mulan at Granny's" Elsa replied pointing ahead down the street it wasn't a far walk.

David nodded driving off as Elsa made her way to the diner for lunch hoping that there was no cause for concern, but Emma was acting rather jittery today. Sitting in the back seat of the car she felt calmer but still jumpy knowing that the sitting and the relaxing would end soon, nothing good ever seemed to last. Emma was feeling increasingly worse she had recovered from many a coffee high in her short life, but this was more extreme than that.
