Short chapter, sorry! Don't forget to review! I appreciate it!
As Mr. Gold requested, the whole family came down to his store. It was a few minutes later. The sun had finally set up in the sky. They were no clouds to be seen. It felt like the perfect day. The perfect day to save Emma. The perfect say to save his son.
As the sight of the whole "family", Rumpelstiltskin smiled. He was going to do well. He was going to save the day and Belle would be proud. She would forgave him for what he said. He would see his son again and everything was going to work out for the best. Everything was going to be alright.
When they first noticed Emma laying in a bed, unconscious, everyone started freaking out. It began with David shouting something incoherent. As his voice disappeared, it was soon replaced by screams from every member of the family telling him that he was supposed to keep her alive, not kill her. The only silent ones were Belle and Henry. Belle was looking nervously at her husband while Henry was looking at his mother speechless. Rumpelstiltskin was looking at his feet. He wasn't usually nervous. He used to be really powerful; people were scared of him. A situation like that wouldn't have happen. But where he was, nervous as hell, trying to do good for his wife and his son. He was really changing. He just wished people could notice it.
Belle was the one to zone out of her trance first and clapped her hands loudly so everyone could shut up. "We should listen to him, first". The whole family froze and put their attention back to Rumpelstiltskin. He nodded before he started explaining his idea.
"I think we need Tue Love kiss for Emma AND Neal."
David shrugged. He knew what that meant but before they were going to save his little girl, he needed to do something. He slowly walked to the bed while Mr. Gold was finishing explaining what needed to be done.
"Hey you. I suck right now and I just hope you don't hate me. I know you can hear me and I just hope you can forgive me. I acted like a jerk and you didn't deserved it. You deserve a happy family that supports you. And that is what you are going to have from now. I promise. I know what true love is. I felt it the first time I put my eyes on your mother and sometimes, love makes you do crazy things. I should've known better than pushing you out of my life and I hope we can move forward when things go back to normal. I love you, Emma. You'll always be my daughter. I hope I'm still your family."
Mary Margaret had shown up behind David squeezing his shoulder. She whispered in his ear: "I'm proud of you". He got up and he let Henry replaced him.
"Are you sure I can save them" Asked Henry shyly. To that, Mr. Gold nodded "You are the product of true love, like your mother." He shook his head before he took a step forward. His feet were touching the bench were the bed had been done.
Emma seemed to be peacefully asleep. She had regular breathing. She was laying on her back, so you could see her face. Her blond hair hadn't been brushed in days. The only thing reflecting her pain was the contraction of her muscle. Her eyebrows were frown and her jaws was oddly contracted. It was discreet but as his son Henry could see it easily. It made her seemed like she was in pain. She was.
He loudly exhale. With a nervous expression, he bent down. He breathed one last time before he gently pout his lips on Emma's forehead trying to act what she did 5 years ago when she saved him.
"Mom, it's me, Henry. I just want you to know that I love you and that I forgive you. For leaving. I was really angry, you know. I felt betrayed, like you never loved me and that dad was more important to you. But I realised that it wasn't the case. You were sick mom and you were really courageous. I'm proud of you. And I'm proud of you too, dad. You came back even if you knew it was going to be hard. I'm so glad I had the chance to meet you. You were and still are a fantastic dad. And when you both come back from the dead, we'll be a happy family for real. We'll leave in the same house and each day, I'll wake up to my mother and father happily together. I love you both. Just stay strong."
He kissed his mom one last time before he back up and a white light emerged. It was violent. It was impossible to see anything. They all close their eyes otherwise they would've end up blind. The windows of the shop broke. A high sound could be heard. Trying to protect their eyes and their ears, they all missed the transformation happening. It went on for about a minute. A minute of pain. After it, everyone was exhausted, like their energy needed to be drained so they could save Emma. Henry, being the one giving the power of true love to save them, was breathing heavily. His heart was beating so fast.
They all had a blurry vision, and they needed to sit down to stop their head from turning. When they finally had control of their body, they opened their eyes and saw two body in front of them. A blonde woman on the bed and a dark hair man lying on the ground. Regina got up and ran toward the body. The rest of the "family" was still speechless. She firstly went to see Emma's condition. With a sight, she sent a thumbs up. She walked to Neal and her face dropped.
"Oh fuck!"
