Hello everyone!

Thank you all so much for the feedback! You guys really seemed to love this story and I'm so glad. I can only thank the person who requested this, so thank you.

This isn't very long, but I hope you enjoy it anyway.

I am currently discussing with myself, rather if this should be a story for itself or if it should just stay in the oneshots. Let me know what you guys think.

Crying woke up Regina and she groaned as she saw Emma laying and crying in the bed next to her. She turned and saw her alarm clock standing almost 3 am. Suddenly a horrible smell surrounded the room and Regina groaned turning to see Emma's diaper double as huge as it was before they went to bed.

Groaning out, she knew what was wrong and she cursed her inner self for keeping the child. She got out of the bed walking around and took the girl into her arms.

"Ooohh sweetie! You stink"

Emma continued to cry and Regina groaned and walked into the bathroom finding a towel before walking back inside the bedroom and laid down the towel, Emma on top of it.

"Alright, let's see what we got here", Regina said to herself when she came back to the bathroom and pulled out some diapers she had bought the day before. She smiled when she found one and walked back out of the bathroom, seeing Emma laying on her back, her arms and legs wriggling around as she cried.

"Don't worry sweetie, I'm here now"

She got started on the change and she immediately regretted it the moment the diaper was opened up. She made a face, almost puking all over the bed but she kept it in. She finally made it through and put the dirty diaper in a bag and gave Emma the new one. A smile spread on Regina's face when she was finally done with everything and Emma didn't cry anymore, so Regina took it as a victory.

"I'm dying slowly", Regina whispered as she walked down the aisle in the grocery shop. Emma in her arms. Regina loved having Emma closer to her, it made her feel a little less lonely.

Emma made a sound and Regina stopped walking, looking down at the girl. Emma looked up at the woman in front of her and a smile spread on her small face. Two days old and she was already smiling. Regina couldn't help but smile back, letting her hand caressing Emma's small head as she leaned in and kissed the girl's forehead softly.

"You're a diamond sweetie"

She continued down the aisle looking for some baby stuff for Emma, maybe some toys while Emma was laying her head against her new mother's chest.

Suddenly her phone rang and she noticed Emma's eyes getting heavy. She needed to go home soon so Emma could get her nap.

"Madame Mayor speaking. Yes. Can't it wait Nina, I'm busy at the moment. Well if I must", she said hanging up without a goodbye and she sighed deep looking down at her daughter.

"Looks like you and I are just passing my office today munchkin"

Emma gaped as her eyes closer slowly and Regina couldn't stop herself form chuckle at the girl. Such a sleepyhead. Once she was done in the shop she went to pay and got outside, walking down the street.

"I need a carriage", she muttered and looked down at Emma as she slept. A few minutes later she was at her office and she walked inside and up the stairs, meeting her assistant by the reception.

"What was the rush Nina, why am I here?"

"Your office madame mayor. Someone is here"

Regina furrowed her eyebrows and walked inside, seeing the sheriff standing by her desk.

"Sheriff. I hope you have a good reason to disturb me", she said coldly as she walked inside and sheriff Graham watched her as she did.

"Madame mayor. And yes, hopefully my reason is good enough"

Regina stared at him waiting for him to continue and the man swallowed hard at the stern eyes.

"Doctor Whale wanted me to inform you that our John Doe has not done any progress so far"

Regina narrowed her eyes at the man, sensing he was holding something back.

"We may need to look further on where he comes from and who his family is. He's been with us for quite a while now"

Regina sighed and walked over to the couches, laying Emma carefully down before taking some pillows to block her from falling down. She kissed the girl's forehead softly before walking back to her desk, sitting down.

"What have you found so far?", she asked finding the paper works for the case.

"Nothing"

Regina turned to him with a frown on her face.

"Nothing? You're the sheriff, you should be able to find something about him, the town is not that big, Graham"

"I know madame mayor, I'm sorry. I will keep surging, alright?"

Regina sighed looking down at the files. She didn't want that farmer boy to wake up, it could ruin everything. She had to do something in order to stop him.

"Don't. Let me look for a while, maybe I can make a few calls"

The sheriff nodded and left the office. Regina sighed deep and walked back to Emma watching her sleep softly on her back.

"Let's get you home munchkin"

Days went by, days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months and months turned into years. And before Regina knew it, a year had passed and Emma was still a baby. Regina began to worry. This wasn't fair to her daughter. Emma had nothing to do with this curse. She was innocent. It had been three years and Emma should be growing up, living life, but she was still a baby. Regina knew what she had to do.

She got Emma into her baby carrier and walked out of the house and into the car. After almost a year, Regina learned to drive the stupid car and she was relieved that she had it, so she could get around faster. She drove to granny's and walked inside with Emma in her arms.

"Miss Lucas. I need your help", she said as she walked over to the counter and Ruby looked at the mayor with a worried look.

"Anything"

"Will you please keep an eye out for Emma? I have some business to attend to"

Ruby instantly nodded, knowing full on Regina needed help and she would always help the mayor.

"Of course"

Regina thanked her and kissed Emma's head before giving her over to Ruby. She smiled at her daughter who looked back at her and waved goodbye before walking out of the diner. She walked across the street and looked up at the sign. Gold's pawn shop. She absolutely hated herself for doing this, but she knew she had to. Emma's life was depending on it.

"Madame Mayor. What a lovely surprise", Gold said the moment he saw the mayor walking inside and Regina rolled her eyes.

"I need your help", she said and Gold furrowed his eyebrows.

"Help? Why do you need my help?"

"Shut it imp, I know you know"

Gold sighed looking at the woman and stood tall.

"Well your majesty... I think what you're looking for... is a deal"

Regina sighed eying the man with angry eyes, but she knew she had to make a deal. This was for Emma and she wasn't going to back out now.

"Well how can I help your majesty?"

"I need to know how to break the curse"

Gold furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. This was new.

"Break the curse? After a year only, you want to break the curse", he said and Regina knew it sounded stupid. But her daughter was innocent and she wanted her to grow up. She knew what she had done was wrong towards Emma. But she wanted that woman to suffer.

"That's what I said"

"But why? You had your revenge. Why break it already?"

Regina sighed looking down and Gold immediately saw through it.

"It's Emma isn't it? Well I'm not sure if you know it, your majesty, but the moment the lovely couple wakes up from the curse, they will take her from you", Gold said and Regina sighed nodding.

"I'm well aware"

Gold nodded and looked around.

"As you know your majesty, every curse... has a savior"

"So?"

Gold gave her a look and Regina immediately knew what he was referring to.

"Emma", she whispered and Gold nodded.

"The only person that can break this curse, is our dearest savior. And when our savior is still a baby. I'm afraid there's not much to be done"
