Difficult conversations

klutzsunshine asked for a oneshot of *6x12 spoilers!* Emma finding out about her dad falling apart in the police station. Combined with Skye asking for Snow finding out about everything Charming did in this episode.

Thanks for your patience, guys. My life is nearly less hectic, and thanks for thoughts and prayers. My test went well!

Also, I have seen the latest episode now!

It took months for the truth to come from Charming. Killian had been a good friend to his soon-to-be father-in-law and hadn't said a peep about anything that had gone down whilst Snow was sleeping and Emma and Henry were bonding for the day by kayaking. But Charming didn't keep secrets from Snow. So eventually, he had to tell her about his journey into finding out about how his father had died a hero. However, unbeknown to both of them, Emma heard most of the conversation from the hallway. It was only when her dad started telling her mom about his breakdown in the station though that Emma made her presence known.

There was no point in hiding it from her. If he was being honest with himself, Charming was surprised Killian hadn't told Emma as soon as it happened. He wasn't able to stop himself getting emotional again, it was a hard topic to discuss. But at least this time, he had his girls to support him. Not that Killian hadn't been a good friend to him that day. But sometimes all you need is your family. For Charming, dealing with the pain of finding out the truth about his father was certainly one of those occasions. Only time would tell if Charming would have to deal with finding out the whole truth.
