I smiled as I walked up to the brown haired boy who was sitting on a log, with a look of confusion and concentration on his face. He got up when he saw me "H-hi my names Henry" he held out his hand almost nervously. I smiled and shook it, I could see the distrust in his eyes and if I really did want to help get his heart...I would have to be the nicest person on this island he's ever met. "Hi Henry, My names Isabella" I smiled at him and saw him relax a little. That was easier than I thought.
I sat down on the log and he sat down next to me. "Do you work for Pan?" he asked me, looking into my eyes. I only laughed at the thought of me actually working for him "No I'm here against my will same as you, I'd thought you could tell by the shadow that dropped me in here". Henry smiled at me, this is almost too easy "I-I'm sorry to hear that". I smiled "It's ok, I've known Pan for a while. I also knew your mother too".
"You knew my mom?" he asked, seeming surprised. "Yes I knew your mom, I knew your grandpa Rumple too but...that was a long time ago, he barely remembers me" I sighed sadly. Should I tell him? I felt a tingle at the back of my neck and knew Peter was watching us from somewhere. I just shook the thoughts out of my head.
"W-were you two friends?" Henry asked me. I smiled "Regina and I were partners too, I saw you when you were only a baby. I've known you for quite a while Henry. You just can't remember me" I reached out to pluck a leaf from his hair. "But y-you couldn't have...your too-"
"Young" I cut off his sentence "Here let me make it less confusing, when I was a girl your mother used to train me in magic and spells...and then you came in and I had to leave"
"Because of me"
I shook my head "No because...because...I had to attend to my own duties. I had grown powerful and had learned all her tricks, I didn't want to get in the way of yours and hers happiness so I just left" I could almost hear Peter let out a breath of relief from here, he must've seen how I'd almost given myself away.
Henry though, smiled at me "It's strange but I-I feel like I do know you from somewhere, I just don't know how". I smiled at him and cupped his face in my hand, stroking his cheek with my thumb slowly "You will in due time Henry"
Henry's smile grew even wider and before I could even think about what to say next, he had flung his arms around me, squeezing me in a tight hug. I slowly relaxed into the hug and hugged him back. Henry looked up at me "Isabella for now, since my moms are gone...w-will you be like another mom to me. I know it sounds weird since we just met and we're not related at all but...will you?"
I smiled down at him, if I was younger I might have cried a little as the feelings of remorse, regret, nostalgia, and happiness passed over me. "Of course I will Henry"
