Baby Daddy

A/N: This takes place as they immediately get back from the missing year with a few differences. Emma, Hook and Henry are actually waiting for them. Obviously Henry still won't remember. This is going to be a multichapter fic but will feature multiple pairings. Truthfully who is "endgame" will probably depend on who you guys want however be warned this is M and will feature (at the very least) OutlawQueen, jealous SwanQueen, and EvilCharming. No this story does not feature any kind of assault, the making was 1000% consensual.

Disclaimer: I don't own OUaT or ABC or Disney etcetc… this is just for fun.

StoryBrooke

They all came to in the same place, the middle of the road beside the town line. A quick glance around would reveal everybody wearing what they had been before they left for the Enchanted Forest. Regina propped herself up on her elbow but grimaced in pain. She slowly pushed herself to her knees, she felt like her head was spinning. Standing on wobbly legs, she turned her head at her name being shouted.

"Regina!" Snow exclaimed and with Charming, both wrapped an arm around her shoulder. She actually did feel some kind of small comfort in the embrace and thought 'Oh no did I become friends with Snow of all people, bloody enchanted forest'. She went to open her mouth but at the same time as the 2 idiots, realized something wasn't right.

"What the hel…" Regina couldn't even finish her thought for caught in between the 3 of them was none other than her very big very obviously pregnant, stomach. "No," she said in confusion, "No, no, no, no, no!" she kept repeating with her hands now on her face and head.

"Regina, what…I mean how, what," Snow spluttered. "I don't understand".

Charming although shocked by the pregnancy was more baffled by the women's responses. Feeling as though he was missing something important he just put his hand on the Queen's shoulder.

Leaning down Regina said "I'm going to be sick." Now that she saw the bump she didn't know how it took her so long to notice it. Her clothes alone should have been a massive clue. She could feel certain things had actually ripped and her jacket was doing nothing to cover her.

"Here," and just like that someone was holding out a much larger jacket, she glanced up at Charming but grudgingly put it on. She wasn't yet sure about using magic while pregnant and her own clothes really were useless. She tried to take a deep breath but halfway through it was interrupted by…

"Snow, David, Regina!"

Everyone's heads turned to look at the newcomer who had just pulled up to the town line and crossed, like it was nothing. While everyone seemed to be trying to get themselves sorted this woman ran at the other 3 standing off to the side.

"Em Emmaaa," Snow stuttered, not able to believe she was holding her daughter again.

"I knew that cloud I saw was you guys, I've been waiting forever and hey woah," Emma exclaimed as she felt someone repeatedly hit her in the stomach. "What was that?" Glancing down her eyes nearly bulged out of her head. "You're pregnant?" Glancing up into those watery scared eyes she didn't know how she felt. "Oh my god, you're you how, you're preg pregnant".

"Astute observation Miss Swan, sharp as always, please keep shouting maybe Grumpy and Doc haven't heard you yet."

"Con-congratulations, I didn't know, I mean obviously you found someone special while you've been gone."

At this statement the other 3 went quiet. Not knowing what to say Charming stepped up "Emma what's happening, how are you even here, how much time has passed since we left?"

With everyone now glancing her way she said "Wait you guys don't remember the last year?"

At this, there were multiple shouts of the word "year" from various people including Granny and Archie.

Everything was making Regina feel more queasy. A year. They'd be gone a year. She didn't know much about pregnancy but looking down at her massive bump she figured she had to be at least 8 months. If Miss Swan was correct and she did seem to be in this case, that meant 4 months. In the span of 4 months in the Enchanted Forest she had slept with someone. It had to have been a one night stand she pondered. There was no way she actually let anyone get close enough to her to want to sleep with them within 4 months. No no this was definitely a one off. Probably a very frustrated and angry queen took someone into her bedchamber for a night of rough, carnal, toe curling sex. The question was who. If she initiated it, then it very well could have been anyone. She wasn't naive, she knew she was above average looking and could seduce like no other when she put her mind and body to it. Disturbing her even more though was the how. How was she pregnant. It shouldn't be possible. Maybe somebody cursed her or slipped her something but for some unexplainable reason she didn't feel like this baby was made maliciously. She was pulled out of her thoughts by a loud whistle and Emma shouting "Okay let me explain everything I know from my side."

Everybody listened intently as Emma explained that about 8 months ago Hook showed up at her front door in New York claiming he had just left them all in the Enchanted Forest. Regina grimaced here. That technically didn't exclude that filthy pirate as her suspected one night stand and if her past was anything to go by, he was the kind of body she would have drunkenly taken, maybe even against a wall. He wasn't even close to the best sex she had ever had, but if mad, frustrated, and drunk, she supposes she may have mistakenly gone down that stupid regretful road again. Emma continued talking telling them how Hook had forced a potion down her throat and how she remembered everything. After punching him Hook proceeded to explain how he jumped realms, trading and making deals as needed, and finally found her. They knew the rest of them would eventually find their way back to Storybrooke and they needed to be there when that happened, but there was only enough memory potion for her. She told Henry that Hook was an old friend who needed their help with a case and moved them to a small house just 10 minutes outside of Storybrooke. She wasn't sure what would happen if they were in the borders when everyone came back, but needed to be close enough to know if someone came back. It was a bit of a nuisance, the closest town and school was 40 minutes away, not to mention the small house had the bedroom accommodations leaving her to share a room with her son, not the pirate she seemed to stress this point. She wrapped things up by saying today there had been a big dark cloud and she just knew it was magic and hoped it was them.

Throughout the whole, somewhat undetailed, sketchy explanation, all Regina could think about, as she had for the past 12 months, was Henry.

Everybody started talking again amongst themselves, but Emma and Regina seemed to make a beeline for one another. Grabbing on to each other's elbows and forearms when Regina loss her balance, she said "Henry. Where's Henry. Henry. I need, oh god." She was trying so hard not to cry as realizations dawned on her. On one hand she didn't want Henry to see her like this, but on the other hand she realized he wouldn't remember her now anyways. She didn't know what was worse. Him possibly thinking she was trying to replace him or him not knowing her whatsoever.

"Hey, hey Regina it's okay. Henry is safe. He's okay. He's happy. For the most part, I...I think. He thinks this is like some kinda cool adventure. And now we can move into Storybrooke okay. You'll be able to see him again I promise," Emma tried to say soothingly.

"He won't know me. He won't know I'm his mother. I'm nothing to him."

"Regina we'll find a way to make him remember. I promise you. If it's the last thing I do."

Chocking back another sob, Regina let go of Emma and said "Why? Why would you help me. I tried so hard just to keep him away from you when you first arrived in my town."

Emma sighed with tears in her eyes. This woman clearly didn't know. "The memories." After a pause and a deep breath she said "When we crossed the town line I was filled with over 10 years of memories of me and Henry. They're yours. You didn't have to do that. And I…damnit Regina I can never repay you for them. I know mine are fake now but yours are real. You did all those things with him. You're his mother, his mom, his mommy, his mama." She could feel the tears dripping down her own cheeks. Reaching up she placed her hand on Regina's shoulder, right where her shoulder met her neck. Rubbing her thumb back and forth she said "You were his everything Regina. His mother, his cook, his doctor, his nurse, his chauffeur, his artist and sometimes canvas, his comedian, his protector, god Regina that kid was the luckiest kid in the world and I never knew. The memories are starting to fade now but my god they brought me so much comfort and peace these last few months, knowing he's had the best life because of you. It was so hard to give him up for adoption and all I could do was hope he didn't end up in the foster system like me. Thanks to you, I've now actually seen how loved and cared for he was. So yes I will do every fucking thing under the sun to get his memories back okay!"

Still sniffling, not knowing what to say, Regina just nodded until…

"Sorry to intrude but could anybody tell me and my men where the bloody hell we are?"
