Chapter 2

Sitting up carefully in her hospital bed, Emma looks down to her small bump in confusion and panic. 'When did that happen?' Closing her eyes as the pain within her head slowly subsides, the blonde takes a needed breath before laying back against her pillows and watches as a couple of nurses and a doctor enter the room.

Stepping towards the blonde on the bed, the doctor offers a small smile. "How are you feeling Emma?"

Frowning at the personality of it all, Emma looks towards the nurses wondering what they are all in her room for. "..I..better...I think..."

Nodding, the doctor takes hold of her folder containing her notes. "Emma..we managed to use your blood work to figure out who you are as we found no form of I.D. on you..and we have been able to contact your next of kin, a Harry Summers?"

Inhaling sharply, the blonde looks away thinking about the man that has brought her up for the past year. "When..when will he be here?"

"Right away...he was extremely worried about you, hopefully he can help. Emma unfortunately your accident caused a large amount of pressure onto your brain and i am aware from the nurses that you cannot remember what you were doing beforehand, but I was wondering if..you can tell me if you remember what happened? with regards to your accident?" Leaning against the foot of the bed, the doctor looks concerned.

"Erm..I.." Reaching up, Emma touches her head feeling a bandage that covers a wound while looking lost. "..no...I don't know..I don't know..anything that happened.."

Giving a sad smile, the doctor nods. "Give it time, I cannot guarantee that its permanent or not..we will keep testing you to find out, in the mean time, rest" making his way back to the door, the doctor leaves to see to his other patients while the nurses check her vitals.

Swallowing a lump, Emma feels her eyes start to water as the machine beeps beside her. Looking down to her bump, she frowns but places a hand on top protectively.

Back in Storybrooke, Regina rushes around having been up all night to find out where Emma has gone. Contacting all known places including the places the blonde used to go just before arriving to Storybrooke, the mayor receives no luck. Grabbing her packed holder and keys, the brunette heads straight towards the front door before pulling it open to Mary Margaret and David.

"Regina?" The short haired woman looks towards her once enemy in confusion at seeing the woman's bag. "What are you doing?"

Regina steps out onto the porch not wanting to waste any time and continues to pack the car up. "I'm going to find Emma, I have got nothing and I cannot just sit around and wait! Emma wouldn't just forget to contact me or go somewhere without letting me know!"

David raises an eyebrow as Mary Margaret reaches out for the woman's arms to hold her still for a moment. "I know you want to know, trust me we do too but for one thing, you look like you haven't slept at all and another you cannot go alone"

Feeling desperate to go, Regina looks back at her teary. "Then come with me but I need to go"

Glancing up at her husband briefly, Mary Margaret nods. "Fine..let's go"

Shocked, the brunette frowns. "You're coming with me?"

Mary Margaret sighs. "Regina she is my daughter and I want to find her as much as you, also we cannot let you leave in the state you're in by yourself, Emma would never forgive us if something happened to you too...we wouldn't forgive ourselves.."

"Okay then..let's go, we can collect your stuff on the way" the brunette quickly locks up and makes her way around to the driver's side before getting in.

Turning to David, the short haired woman squeezes his hand in comfort. "I will let you know what is going on when we get there.."

"Just be careful, I will take care of everything here, just bring Emma home.."

Nodding, Mary Margaret kisses her husband goodbye then joins Regina in the car and drives off.

"Dr Scott?..Harry Summers" smiling over at the doctor, the stocky built man holds his hand out. "Where is Emma?"

Accepting the shake, the doctor nods towards the blonde's door. "I have to inform you though that Emma suffered a severe knock to the head and her memory at the moment is very temperamental..she is unaware of how she got here and what she was doing..however I do have some items that we found on her at the time that may help.." Passing over a bag of items, Dr Scott smiles. "Luckily we were able to ensure the baby was fine..no damage was done"

"Baby?..oh..yeah, baby right.." Harry takes the bag and eyes up the contents spotting a rather sparkly ring before dumping it in his pocket. "thank you Doc"

After more talk with regards to Emma's care, the foster father goes to see his daughter with the intention of taking her home. Entering the blonde's hospital room, Harry tries to hide a smile before walking up to the bed. Harry then towers over the blonde who is currently looking out the window while rubbing her bump. "Emma?"

Eyes widening in fear, Emma slowly turns to face him with caution. The tall man smirks taking in the now 'older' Emma.

"Welcome home..."
