Storybrooke, Present Day

Henry sat in math class. He'd actually begun to enjoy it and had gotten pretty good since the year he and Emma spent in New York City. Lately, however, he'd been distracted in all of his classes worried about his family.

Finally the bell rand for lunch and Henry packed up his backpack and went to grab his lunch from where they were kept at the back of the classroom.

"Uh…Henry. Could I speak with you for a moment?"

Henry turned and looked at his teacher. He really just wanted to go to lunch and check his phone to see if Robin had heard from anyone in Wonderland. "Sure, Mr. Bashful."

Bashful scratched his beard, clearly a little nervous. "Sit down Henry." They both sat down at the group work table in the corner. "I know you are worried about your family. They've been gone for quite some time now. But you are really beginning to fall well behind the rest of the class where you used to be well ahead of them."

"I know. I'm sorry. I'll catch back up when they return."

"But Henry, while I hope they will return very soon, there is just no knowing when they will actually return. If you do not catch back up now, you may not, uh, move on to the next grade at the end of the year."

They sat there in silence for a bit. Henry sighed defeated. "I just don't think I can concentrate until they get home."

Bashful put a comforting hand on Henry's shoulder. "Think about it this way. How would your moms feel if you fell behind in school while they were away?"

Henry rolled his eyes as he pictured it. "Yeah, probably wouldn't be a pretty picture. Downside of having two moms with magic."

Bashful smiled. "Go on to lunch. Beginning tomorrow I'll help you catch up in here while you eat."

"Thanks." Henry shouted as he bolted out of the classroom. He was grateful for Bashful's concern and help, but right now he had other things to do.

Henry looked at his phone when he sat down to eat. Nothing. He texted Robin and when he received a return text that there was no news he began to eat his lunch.

Robin wasn't much of a real cook. He grilled. That was about it. Probably given as the time living at a camp in the woods with the Merry Men. Henry had begun to make his and Roland's lunches in Regina and Snow's absence. Emma was a microwavable or right out of the box meal cook. Today he'd made himself a bologna sandwich with lettuce and mayo, an apple, and a juice box.

There was only three minutes of lunch left before the bell rang when he heard his mom Regina calling his name in the wind. He had imagined this a million times as he wished for her to call on the mirror. But there it was again, and then Robin's name. He never imagined hearing that. He looked around and discretely pulled the mirror out of his pocket and tried to hide it under the table (magic wasn't allowed at school).

There she was! His mom! "Mom!" He whispered.

Regina smiled. "Henry." Her voice sang in the sweet way it does when she says his name with tenderness.

"Mom are you all alright? Do you need the portal open right now?!"

"We're all fine. We do need the portal but there isn't the rush that I thought we'd need. We've taken care of the situation."

"That's great! Did you find Lily's dad?"

"We did. We'll tell you all about it when we get home. Call us when you are ready to open the portal. I love you."

"I love you too mom." And with that the mirror reflected Henry back at himself.

Henry threw his stuff together and bolted as the bell rang. With all the commotion of everyone returning from lunch Henry was able to slip out of school and head towards the Blue Fairy's house. He called Robin on the way to meet him there.

About an hour later Robin, Henry, and Blue stood in the forest where the heroes had gone through the portal to Wonderland. Blue didn't want to create a portal too close to town and risk causing any damage and she figured it would be easier to recreate the portal where it had been in the first place.

Henry reluctantly agreed to let Robin call Regina to let them know everything was ready. After a very brief conversation, he handed the mirror to Blue so Regina could show her where they were so the portal didn't open up in Wonderland on the other side of the realm and then they disconnected.

Blue pulled out the wand and readied herself. "Now stand back." She closed her eyes and with a powerful swish of his wrist a portal began to form and the wind picked up around them. They held their breath for what felt like an eternity before Regina, Lily, Leroy, Diaval, Snow, Charming, Belle, Emma, and Killian stepped through and back to Storybrooke.

"Moms!" Henry smiled as he rushed at them.

They all said their hellos and thank yous to Robin, Henry, and Blue for helping them return.

Charming put an arm around Snow and smiled looking around the group. "Dinner at Grannys!"

Henry noticed Leroy smile. Actually smile! "That sounds like a great idea!" Leroy stated and began to walk towards the town. That was when Henry noticed he and Lily holding hands and shot a questioning look at his grandparents.

Snow smiled. "Yup. Leroy is in love."

Everyone began to follow except for Emma and Killian. "Hey dad," Emma called.

Charming walked back to them. "What's up Emma?"

"You can give Killian his hook back."

Charming thought for a moment, then nodded and pulled the bag from his back he'd carried with him to Wonderland and pulled it out.

"Thanks mate" Killian said as he reattached it.

Charming went to catch back up with Snow.

"Now while I am very happy to have this back," he said holding up his hook, "I wasn't expecting to get it back quite so quickly. Are you sure?"

"Yes," Emma said confidently grabbing his hook to hold it as if it were a hand. "But if we ever go back to Wonderland…and I hope not…you take it off."

"Care to share what that's all about?"

Emma shook her head looking in front of her as they walked.

"Okay. You'll share with me when you are ready I expect." He kissed her temple.

As they reached Granny's, Belle pulled Robin to the side. She was clearly nervous.

"What's wrong Belle?"

"I just wanted to ask about Rumple while we were away. I am hoping I can begin to trust him."

Robin took a deep breath and gave her a sad smile. "I'm sorry Belle. Rumple escaped and attempted to steal the Apprentice's wand from the Blue Fairy to regain his powers. Fortunately we caught him before he could do it. Before he lost his powers when he was still bound to the dagger and unable to leave his cell, he'd used his magic to create a key which he used to come and go as he pleased once he'd lost his powers. The fairies put a spell on it now so he is unable to escape without possessing magic himself. I'm truly sorry."

Belle wiped away a tear from her cheek. "Thank you for your honesty."

Robin went into the diner as Belle slowly walked to the station to confront Rumple composing herself and deciding exactly what to say to him. By the time she'd reached her destination she was ready.

"Belle!?" Rumple stood up and came up to the bars at the sight of her.

"I heard what happened while I was away." The tone of her voice made it clear that she was beyond devastated and angry.

"Belle, it's who I am. You've always known this and I know you love me for it."

"No. I know there was good in you. Sadly, it's no longer there. I never want to see you again." Belle turned and left the station and failed to hold back the tears as Rumple was calling after her.

Everyone had a great time at Granny's and they were beyond full.

"I still can't believe that no evil villain came to town and took over while we were gone." Emma sighed as she leaned into Killian.

Robin looked at Ruby with a smile. "Well Henry and I had some help in ensuring things stayed calm around here and were able to thwart Rumple's attempt before he was able to carry out his plan."

Henry sat at another table with Lily, Leroy, and Diaval. He was fascinated by Diaval and the jabberwocky not really being a villain as the stories of this world make him out to be, but just a being tricked into defending himself.

It had gotten late and it was time for everyone to return home for a good night's rest. "Henry, time to go." Regina called. Emma and Killian hadn't had time to set up his room in their house seeing as they were hardly ever home anymore so he was staying with Regina until they were able to…hopefully soon with a small guest bed for Roland as the two had grown close and Regina would want some nights to have her mansion alone with Robin.

Henry came over. "I can tell Leroy is very happy with Lily. It's funny though. They are both still kinda grumpy though. Like Donald and Daisy Duck. They are happy to be grumpy with each other." He shrugged his shoulders. "Mom, Killian. We've got a lot to discuss regarding your wedding. Tomorrow after school be here. On time. I've already told Granny we're going to need a lot of hot cocoa with cinnamon." He turned to leave and then turned back. "By the way, your wedding is June 3rd." With that he met up with Regina, Robin, and Roland waiting for him outside the door.

Emma's eyes grew wide as she turned to look at Killian. "What's wrong Swan?"

"That's just over a month away! That's not enough time!"

Killian gave a silent chuckle and smiled. "We share a heart, remember. It's just a formality."

It wasn't the marriage that bothered her, it was all the pomp and circumstance of a wedding that was concerning her. "It's not that, it's we JUST got back."

Killian took her hand and led her out of the diner. They were the last there and Ruby had clearly given him the look to leave. Likely she had a date tonight. "Well, you did tell the lad to plan the affair while we were away."

"He's a teenage boy! I didn't think he'd really get very far. Besides it was just to give him something to do while we were gone to make him feel like a part of it."

"Let's see what the lad has for us tomorrow." Killian said.

Emma furrowed her brow and gave a worried half smile. "For some reason I'm more worried about Henry planning this event than my mother."

"I'm sure he will plan a wonderful affair."

"It's not that. He's just going to blow it way out of proportion."

They just reached the gate of their house when Killian stopped and turned towards her. "Just focus on the marriage part, not the wedding. Besides, the sooner it is, the less time you have to fret about the upcoming day."

Emma pulled herself closer to him. "How did you know what to say? To make me feel better?"

Killian eyes flitted up as he raised his brow and gave a small smile. "Well our shared heart does help, I already know you well enough from everything we've been through."

Killian leaned down and gave Emma a very passionate kiss.

When she was desperate for air, she pulled away a tiny bit. "How about we go inside and explore with another fun side effect of our shared heart."

Killian gave her a smoldering look. "With pleasure."

-And that is the end! I hope you liked it. Please let me know what you think. Hopefully I will start a new story soon.
