1 week later
Emma sat at the kitchen table really enjoying her cereal it must have been the perfect combination of muesli and Cheerio's with a bit of fruit loops, Mary Margret sat down across from her sipping from her cup of tea this was becoming a standard morning for them except today, Mary Margret had something to say she was staring at Emma wondering how to bring it up. Emma however distracted by her breakfast didn't seem to notice. So as Emma slurped up the last of her milk Mary Margret finally found the words to start the conversation.
"Uh Emma"
"Yeah" Emma looked up her mind scattered she had to remember to grab her homework and her lunch before heading out she was cutting in close and with the principle on the war path she had to be on time.
"I wanted to talk to you before you went to school"
"About what" oh no this sounded serious
"Well I've been to see, charming "she smiled at their Nick name "A few time in the last week but he says you haven't been to see him much, is everything ok"
"Yeah its fine, I just... I don't know what to say he wants to be my farther it's all he knows all he remembers and I just don't know how to be a daughter"
"Oh Emma trust me he doesn't want you to be anyone but the amazing young women you are"
"I know, I guess"
"Same goes for me"
Mary Margret gave Emma a hug people in this town liked there hugs Emma thought she looked up at the clock then realising the time.
"Oh no we got to go" Emma grabbed her bag sliding on her shoes they both made their way to the door.
"Emma" Mary Margret called holding Emma lunch she just made and her homework
"Oh thanks almost forgot" Emma grabbed the stuff cramming it into her bag as the both headed to the car the traffic was its usual unmoving self for this time of morning it would be better to walk if it wasn't so cold, Emma looked out the window and saw Elsa walking past making her way to school. That girl would walk to school in a snow storm Emma thought smiling.
"Hey I'm going to walk with Elsa" Emma said about to get out of the car that hadn't moved more than a few metres in the last ten minutes.
"Ok don't forget to meet me at Granny's after school at 3.30"
"Yeah"
"Seriously"
"I promise I'll be there" Emma said grabbing her bag getting out of the car leaving Mary Margret to the traffic as she caught up with Elsa.
"Hey"
"Did you finish that biology assessment last night?"
"No might have to get an extension"
"I can't believe the tables have turned this much, I'm the one with my assessments done on time and Elsa's getting an extension" Emma smiled somehow she was changing small changes sure but it was new to her.
"That's what happens when you live with a teacher and plus I just can't focus lately it's been a week since I opened those letters and we haven't gotten any closer to an answer"
"Elsa it's going to be ok will figure it out"
"It's more than that she sends a distress signal and I don't even bother to read it, the last letter was sent months ago what if it's too late"
"You can't beat yourself up like this would make you think your sister wasn't ok, a week ok you thought she was safe at this boarding school"
"I know, I just shouldn't have shut her out"
Emma squeezed Elsa hand she wasn't sure what to say after all she does the same thing she been doing it to her father she hadn't even said he was her dad out loud yet.
They walked into school the subject dropped as they made their way through mingling with friends on their way to class.
Emma walked into the library it became the new hang out now after school for the past week either her killian, Mulan or Peter or Ruby some combination of the gang where there helping Elsa when they didn't have something else on.
"Afternoon Emma" Miss French said expecting her arrival she didn't even look up from her book as Emma entered.
"Afternoon"
Emma slumped down next to killian it had been a long day, she was on time but she could see the principle watching hoping for her to be late another reprimanded for Emma and then she barges into Miss Blanchard's class trying to undermine her as a teacher putting her down it just made Emma so angry.
"I swear one day I'm going to confront that woman"
"Who"
"The principle she's asking for trouble"
"You have to leave it Emma trust me just being here doing what where doing is enough"
"What's your deal you afraid of the principle"
"She's dangerous Emma"
"Oh I get so who is she"
"The evil queen, she's the one who cast this curse"
Emma frowned it made sense to paint her as the villain here but Emma still wasn't afraid of her what was she going to do apart from kick them out of school fire Mary Margret or just make their lives harder in general actually she could do a lot but that didn't change anything Emma was going to confront her just have to do it without Killian.
"I got donuts" Peter announced as he entered the library
Miss French was eyeing him as he entered she started letting them bring snacks in the where usually her half the night she didn't mind as long as she got a donut as well.
"Thanks I'm starved" Ruby said grabbing a chocolate coated one
"Hey that one's mine" Peter whined
"Well we will have to share"
Killian was focused on his web search about decoding and the many ways a message can be hidden
while Elsa was still trying to find a number that would actually connected her to the school Anna was supposedly attending they were starting to really believe it didn't exist as Killian kept saying but Elsa remembered her leaving she had all the papers and uniform they dropped her off at the airport.
Emma noticed the time, it was almost four she was supposed to meet Mary Margret she promised and now she was going to be late so she quickly grabbed her stuff.
"Sorry guys got to go, see you tomorrow"
Elsa barely looked up from what she was doing waving Emma off as her and Ruby entered the depths of the web to find answers about the boarding school Anna was attending while Peter grabbed another donut. Killian got up however following her to the door.
"Swan"
"What's wrong?"
"Well we haven't had time to talk lately; you haven't said much about your father is everything going ok" Killian didn't want to push but Emma hadn't been talking about it much and he thought finding her father would help for believe that everything would change but that wasn't the case it was going to take more than that to break down Emma's walls
"Yeah I went to see him once with Mary Margret his a nice guy, I mean for someone who has no memory of their life, we might stop by to see him tonight"
"That's good maybe one day I'll meet him while his conscious"
"Yeah his much better conversation, I got to go"
"Alright see you tomorrow and stay out of trouble don't go after the Principle she is more than she seems love"
"Ok Killian" Emma sighed as she walked out since when did he get so worried about her she was just going to meet Mary Margret they probably just eat at Granny's.
Emma power walked up to Granny's she was twenty minutes late and Mary Margret wanted to do some shopping before they all the stores closed so Emma was surprised not to see her standing out the front impatiently waiting, Emma looked around inside she wasn't in Granny's she wasn't usually late hopefully that jerk Principle didn't keep her back with another surprising last minute task that needs to be immediately completed. Emma pulled her phone out of her bag to call but there was no answer so Emma waited watching out the front of Granny's alone looking for a sign of Mary Margret but she didn't show.
"Emma" Charming said he checked himself out of the hospital early he couldn't help it he felt that he was needed somewhere and when he saw his daughter sitting alone out the front of Granny's he knew exactly what that was.
"OH hi" Emma said looking up surprised to see him "I thought you were still on bed rest"
"Yeah I thought it would be good to stretch my legs"
"That's good; they let you walk around alone'
"Well I was going to walk with Mary Margret she said she had a free afternoon no classes, but she never stopped by"
"Oh she was meeting you"
"Yeah, I figured she got held up at work"
"That's weird" Emma was starting to worry a little now she looked at her phone no missed calls so she dialled Mary Margaret's number the phone rang out for a while but there was no answer. It was already four thirty she started walking away from her father and spotted Graham down the street parking his car she ran over to him her father closely following.
"Graham I glad you're here I think Mary Margret is missing no one has seen her all afternoon"
"Ok slow down Emma, she probably just caught up at school"
"She's not answering her phone"
"I saw her before she was talking with Principle Mills out the front of the school, I'm sure she just had to stay back at work"
"She didn't even message me"
"Ok I'll look into it Emma, just stay out of trouble, I've got something I need to look into first" Graham looked over at Charming for a moment like he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
Emma nodded but she was still at little worried and also didn't really want to have to be alone with her father she had no idea what to say to him.
"I got to go" Graham walked off
Emma took a deep breath maybe she was just reaching she must have just forgotten they were meeting.
"You ok Emma"
"Yeah something just doesn't feel right"
"Yeah and she did mention last week about someone breaking into the apartment"
"What she never said anything to me"
"Maybe she was just trying to protect you"
"Well people need to stop doing that" Emma looked through her phone get annoyed first Killian and Graham now Mary Margret was trying to protect her too it was annoying but Emma was getting more frustrated than the situation called for.
"Emma its ok she's probably at the school"
"Then why is her phone way out on the other side of town"
"What"
"Look according to her GPS she somewhere near the south woods on the side of the road, that doesn't seem fine to me"
Emma walked off she had to find a way to get out there and see if Mary Margret was ok maybe Killian was right after all and the Principle was more than just a mean spirited women trying to make everyone's life harder, Emma had to get out there.
"Where are you going?" Charming said worried
"I'm going to find her'
"Maybe we should ask the Sheriff for help"
"He's clearly busy and she probably is fine, I can take care of it"
Emma continued down the street but there was no way Charming was going to leave his little girl alone again especially if she was potentially walking into danger so he followed.
"Ok that's it there is no evidence of this place anywhere, what kind of school doesn't have a web page or a number that actually connects you to something" Elsa yelled her hands in the air as she walked away from the computer.
"Hey will figure it out don't give up" Mulan grabbed her hand stopping her from storming off, they looked into each other's eyes Elsa's stress and lack of seep catching up to her she was at breaking point.
"I told you it was a pointless voyage the school doesn't exist"
"Can maybe someone help with sane answers" Mulan narrowed her eyes at Killian he smirked from behind the book he was reading Peter nudged Killian to stop with the curse stuff for a minute and then reached over to grab the last donut however he didn't seem to notice the large glass of water just beside all the letters.
"Watch out" Ruby yelled reaching over her hand just not quite grasping it
"Bloody hell"
"PETER" Elsa ran over but it was too late half the pages were completely soaked
"Bloody hell" Killian mumbled grabbing the papers and letting the water drip off
Belle the librarian came over her arms folded frowning "You guys got to be more careful and quiet"
"Sorry Miss French" Ruby apologised for the group
"What are you guys doing over here anyway?"
"Finding secret messages in letters" Killian responded nonchalantly
"Well were now the letters are ruined" Elsa was even more stressed now her only hope gone she sat down defeated Mulan rubbed her shoulders
"It's ok we can selvage this"
"I'm so sorry Elsa"
"Wait, look at it the page" Belle held it up and you could see letters appearing that weren't there before.
"Seems we might have just cracked this code" Killian said holding up a paper that now had some extra letters connecting sentences, Elsa looked up eyes wide remembering something from when they where kids she ran out the library Mulan followed.
"I'll be right back" Elsa called
Emma walked for a few minutes down the main street while her father followed, she looked down at the GPS focusing on it and how she was going to get to the other side of town and not wanting to talk to her father still unsure how to act what to say.
"What are you doing" Emma huffed looking back at her father
"I'm coming with you"
"Ok, but how are we going to get here"
"We can borrow someone's car "
"Do you even remember how to drive?"
"I remember how to do things just not any people or places it's strange everything feels so foreign like I don't belong here nothing makes sense but you, and Mary Margret"
"Let's find her then" Charming nodded but they both just stood there unsure what to do about the transport situation after all they didn't have a car and buses in Storybrooke seemed to be on a permanent hiatus.
"Why don't I ask to borrow, Ruby's car" Emma said noticing it parked out the front of her house she must have gotten a ride from peter today because they were still down at the school, Emma texted her she knew her keys would be under her sun visor nobody bothered to lock cars in this town.
"Emma I was thinking more the Sheriff could help"
"Well he said there probably nothing wrong, and Ruby just texted me, said I could borrow the car as long as I fill it with gas" Emma jumped in the driver's seat.
"I'm driving" Charming said grabbing the keys Emma slid over to the other side.
They drove off the little wolf hanging from the mirror swinging back and forth as they headed towards the GPS signal driving in silence for a few minutes.
"So Mary Margret has been to see you a few times this week"
"Yeah she just making sure I've been getting on ok bringing me food hospital stuff is terrible, and Granny makes a good grilled cheese"
"Yeah she does, one day we should actually take you to Granny's"
"That would be nice" He smiled looking at Emma, who immediately went back to their task looking at were they needed to turn next.
"Left here I think, I don't really know this side of town well a lot of big houses it's secluded out here"
"Yeah it is" he paused "how long have you been living with Mary Margret"
"Not long about two weeks"
"You like living with her"
"Yeah she's great"
"Yeah" Charming agreed smiling wondering where she might be if she was ok
"So you like her, Mary Margret"
"What, yeah I mean how can you not like someone who saves your life"
He was trying to sound reasonable but Emma could see in his eyes he was falling for her in a big way and Emma had noticed how happy Mary Margret was when she came back from visiting him at the hospital Emma was starting to wonder if they were Snow white and Prince charming like Killian was saying.
"Oh were close its just a few metres up the road"
"There's nothing much here, all I see are trees why would she be way out here" he said looking out into the woods pulling the car over close to where the phone should be were Mary Margret should be but there was no sign of anyone.
"I don't like this Emma, we should get some help"
"its fine we just need to look for the phone she probably just a little further" Emma continued walking up the side of the road it was getting dark so she used her phone as a torch searching the ground, her father cautiously followed looking around at their surroundings for signs of Mary Margret or whoever else could be out here.
"There it is" Emma quickly dived down picking up the phone in the grass it was wet from the moist ground it looked like it hadn't been dropped but placed though something didn't seem right.
"Something's wrong, Emma come on get back in the car" Charming said coming closer to her his hand on her shoulder this was starting to worry him being way out her no one knew where they were it would be hard to get help.
"HELP" a voice called out from the trees the both turned the heads shocked recognising the call for help immediately as Mary Margret's voice
"Help" the voice rang out again but from the opposite direction they whipped their heads back confused which direction to go. Emma took off heading to the second voice on the left.
"Emma wait we don't know what's going on where it came from"
"We can split up, find her"
"Emma I don't"
"It will be ok a few minutes she can be far then will be back in the car"
"SOMEONE HELP" Mary Margret's voice ran out again before Charming could protest, he nodded but still hesitant to move, Emma quickly walked away while charming lingered for a moment watching Emma go he wanted to follow but then her heard another call for help in the other direction and took off not looking back.
Emma walked away from her father starting to feel uneasy she didn't hear any other sign of Mary Margret and was heading further and further from the road the sun was down now and she could barely see until she spotted a light from a house maybe they saw something maybe they could help Emma decided to walk up the path and knock on the door.
"Hello" The door was open before she even got the chance to knock a handsome man stood in entrance the door wide open.
"Hi I was looking for someone, have you seen a women around here pixie hair cute blue cardigan"
"No but I'd be happy to help"
"I heard her calling for help around here"
"Well I did hear a voice I thought it was you but maybe not"
"Do you know what direction it was coming from?"
"I think so, I'll help you look its dark out here and cold, let me just get some things you can come in" then he walked in through to the kitchen Emma reluctantly following the kettle was whistling on the stove he grabbed his boots and started looking through the cupboard.
"I'll just find us some torches, have a cup of tea if you like"
"Oh thanks, your house is so big like a hotel do you have a big family"
"No I live alone" He answered solemnly as he continued to search.
Emma wasn't in the mood for tea but it was very cold out and she left her coat in the car, so she poured herself a cup while he went off to find a torch having no luck in the cupboard he was searching in. The tea was so warm just holding the cup was nice Emma thought about messaging her father but he didn't have a phone maybe he found Mary Margret and everything was ok she just needed to find them now she took a sip of tea feeling a bit nervous what was taking so long she wanted to get back outside and look. Emma eyes glanced around the room it had a sorts of quirky stuff on the walls lots of maps Emma took a few more sips but started to feel dizzy she sat down on a dining room chair her head spinning as the man entered the room again smirking
"What did you…" Emma tried to speak but dozed off her vision fading as her eyes closed.
Elsa rushed back into the library a confused Mulan followed she was smiling for the first time in a week and it felt good.
"I dried the pages you can see more letters now"
"This is interesting" Belle said "whoever did this was clever" she looked over the letters to someone who might be thinking there was a hidden message wouldn't be able to understand it was a code unless they knew Anna it was personal.
"Were did you go" killian frowned looking over the letters he wasn't making sense of it still. The group was even more confused when the saw Elsa come back with two bottles of grape juice in her hands.
"Not really the time for a drink break love"
"What no it something I remember from when we were kids, we used bicarb soda and water to make invisible ink and when you put the juice on it the message was revealed I can't believe I didn't think of it"
"Cool looks like I cracked the code then" Peter grinned but the rest of them room wasn't feeling his enthusiasm.
"Well let's get this puzzle solved" Belle said she was excited to have something more to do then categorise books.
"Ok" Elsa took a deep breath started opening the bottles of juice everyone picked up a letter each dabbing the juice one the paper waiting for letters to appear and they did a few on each page and some numbers but it still wasn't making sense.
"Put the letters in order from the dates" Belle suggested
"Here this one's first" killian passed it over them to arrange them in the table and started writing the letters down in order.
"H, E, L, P"
"Help, oh Anna"
"What the rest say"
"R, I, T, E, D, A, R, A, 1, 2"
"ritedara 12"
"What does that mean" Mulan asked thinking Elsa might know.
"Nothing it means nothing" Elsa slumped down all that and they still haven't made sense of the letters.
"There has to more where missing something" killian frantically looked over the pages again he knew the where on to something but what.
David made his way through the trees it was getting darker now the sun completely gone only the moonlight as guide he hadn't heard Mary Margaret's calls for help for about ten minutes he was going to turn back and find Emma when he heard a strange sound a crackling he went towards it got louder by a big old oak tree it's was dark but he spotted it as clear as day a tape recorder that was the sounds he was hearing Mary Margret was never hear and Emma was walking straight into a trap alone he ran off back in the other direction his heart racing after everything he couldn't lose his daughter again.
He was running fast barely seeing the trees as he passed bounding forwards. "Emma, EMMA" he yelled
He saw the car by the side if the road he was getting close he ran off to where she went when he saw a porch light he ran towards it his worry turning to anger at himself for letting this happen and for whoever was doing this to his family.
He got the side of the house looking through the window he saw nothing just an empty lounge he kept moving to the next window a bedroom empty except for a chair with someone tied to it he could tell by the blue cardigan it was Mary Margret he had to get in there and fast Emma was probably in there as well.
He took of his jacket wrapping it around his wriest he broke the window with it clearing away the glass so he could climb through hearing the noise Mary Margret swung her head around as much as she could her face shocked to see her knight in shining plaid to rescue her.
"thank god" Mary Margret he said with relief when he took the gag of her mouth" Charming" she smiled.
"Are you ok" he knelt down keeping his voice low his hand on her check then down to her hands, tied behind her back he starting undoing the knots.
"I will be let's get out of here"
"What happened how did you end up here?"
"I was walking through the park I was distracted, he grabbed me he must of used chloroform or something the next thing I know I'm tied to this chair"
"Have you seen Emma?"
"What" Mary Margret eyes went wide with fear she had no idea Emma was hear "What is Emma doing out here"
"Keep your voice down, we came to find you"
"You know maybe you should have called the sheriff not bring you daughter along for a rescue mission"
"Well I didn't realise how bad it was, until we got our here"
With the ropes finally lose Mary Margret stood up quickly ready to find Emma, opening the door a crack to see if anyone was in the hallway it was clear so she slowly made her way out the door tip toeing, charming was still in the room.
"What are you doing" Mary Margret huffed impatiently wanting to find Emma
"Thought we might need a weapon" he came out of the room carrying a mallet, Mary Margret frowned.
"What, it's all I could find" he shrugged scouting ahead.
The group had been sitting in silence looking over the pages but it was fruitless it didn't make sense the code didn't mean anything.
"Come on its late we should head home" Ruby said it was almost ten and Granny was wondering where she was, Peter got up to go along with Ruby giving Elsa a comforting rub on the back. Killian sat up.
"We'll look into it tomorrow where not giving up" Killian said sure in his resolve wondering why this didn't work they should be getting there happy endings maybe Emma needed to be here she was the only one that could save them. They grabbed their stuff leaving the library Belle closed the doors behind them shutting off the lights.
"Has anyone heard from Emma she hasn't answered my texts in a while"
"She asked to borrow my car earlier, she said she was heading out of town it was urgent something about Mary Margret, her message wasn't really clear"
"What" Killians heart was racing he knew something was wrong when she didn't answer he should have asked earlier he ran off to his car to go find her.
Emma woke up sitting on a chair a room filled with hats sewing equipment and a telescope she was still very out of it Jefferson was staring at waiting for her to wake up.
"Hello Emma" he smirked
"Who are you, how do you know my name"
"So many questions haven't you read Elsa's book figure it out"
Emma was thinking about the hats the tea the crazy look in his eyes it could all only mean one thing.
"You think you're the mad hatter, I thought Killian was the only one in town who believed in fairytales"
"You should listen to your boyfriend"
"You're crazy" Emma noticed his remark did this man have any sane thoughts
"Maybe, but who is the mad one me the man doing anything to get back to his family or you refusing to believe what's right in front of you"
"What"
"Your family" he slipped a polaroid picture of Mary Margret tied to a chair front of Emma. Emma gasped standing up even she still needed to table to be upright though the drugs still in her system.
"What did you do to her" Emma felt her heart racing she was going to run out of the room but he pulled a gun out from under the table pointing it at her making his way to the door before she could blocking the only exit.
"She's is fine and she will continue to be if you make it work" he said throwing his hat a here
"Make WHAT WORK" Emma got the strength to stand getting angry
"Magic, the curse it all real" He was crazy Emma frantically looked around for a way out something to hit him with but she couldn't see anything.
"If your right then the women you have tied up is my mother and my father is lost in the woods trying to find us so I need you to calm down and we can talk about this"
"There's no quick solution here Emma you need to make it work"
Emma ignored him continuing to look around for something that could help her out of this mess this was all her fault if she had been on time to meet Mary Margret if she hadn't dragged her father here alone without back up this wouldn't be happening.
"See that's the problem with this world everyone wants a magic…..
THWACK! Charming and Mary Margret burst through the door Charming knocking him in the head with the mallet he fell to the floor.
"I hope he didn't have anything memorable to say"
Mary Margret ran over to Emma helping her stand she was still dizzy she sat her down tears streaming down her face as she held Emma in her arms.
"Are you ok" her father asked breathless
"Yeah.. LOOK OUT"
Jefferson got up of the floor ready for a second fight but charming was ready he dodge his punch kicking him in the guts he feel out the window onto the dark ground below.
"Woow" Mary Margret said impressed
"Whoever you are you know how to fight"
He walked over to Emma kissing her forehead relieved that she was safe that they were both safe.
"I think it time to call the sheriff now" Emma said finally admitting this was a bad idea.
An hour later after a long explanation and another fight to get Jefferson in handcuffs he was taken in the back of Graham's cruiser Emma was checked out by the paramedics free to go home and rest much to Charming and Mary Margaret's relief. Emma sat in the back of the Ruby's car while reminding Charming to fill up the gas, he and Mary Margret got in the front driving back to the apartment. By the time they arrived Emma was sound asleep the drugged tea still in effect Mary Margret pocked her called out her name a dozen times but all she did was groan and mumble something about wanting to sleep in today. Eventually giving up on that Charming carried her out of the car and into Mary Margaret's apartment but as he approached that final set of stairs to her bed he couldn't help but think of the last time he held her in his arms.
"She's gotten bigger" He grunted trying to smile but there was so much pain there he had missed so much of her life he placed her down in her bed kissing her forehead while Mary Margret placed a blanket over her the two sat down on the end of her bed exhausted.
"Ruff day"
"I know it sounds crazy but it been the best day I've had since I woke up" He looked over at Emma finally being able to spend more than an hour with her.
"Sorry can't say the same, on top of all this I was fired today"
"What seriously but you're great teacher"
"Thanks but according to the Principle I'm lazy an unprofessional, I swear she has a personal grudge against me, I don't know what to do without a job I can't take of myself without an income what about Emma"
Charming reached out stroking her hand he didn't know what to say but it was all the comfort she needed for now.
BANG BANG BANG
"Someone's at the door" Mary Margret was surprised
BANG BANG BANG
"Ok, where coming" charming said frustrated maybe this would wake up Emma, they made their way down stairs opening the door, killian burst in.
"Where's Emma is she ok, I've been looking everywhere then I saw the sheriff he said she was kidnapped but she went home with you and I came straight here"
"Who are you" Charming said confused who was this boy and why was he so concerned with the where abouts of his daughter.
"Killian Jones I don't believe we've had the pleasure, is Emma ok"
"Killian she's fine, she asleep actually" Mary Margret answered trying to shush him. Killians eyes gazed up stairs imagining her safe in bed he let out a sigh of relief sitting down.
"Everything's fine we ran into a little trouble but it's all taken care of"
"The sheriff sort of filled me in"
"Ok then, are you ok" Mary Margret asked grinning at his obvious affection for Emma, Charming looked a there puzzled he didn't think it was so funny.
"Fine Miss Blanchard, just thought I'd check in" He tried to sound like he wasn't bothered but it was obvious that was the opposite.
"Killian it's late go home ok you can see Emma tomorrow at school" Mary Margret came over to him giving him a reassuring rub on the should to calm him down more, he nodded she was right it was late and Elsa and the others were waiting on an update of the situation he said he would call with news.
"See you tomorrow Miss Blanchard" He waved goodbye Mary Margret simply nodded she didn't know how to tell him she'd been fired that was tomorrow's problem for the moment everything was alright she thought closing the door watching Killian go.
"One minute I'm holding an infant in my arms know I have to worry about boyfriends" Charming said starring at the door Mary Margret rolled her eyes smirking.
