Next chapter I will be doing a flashback to what happened when Emma and Snow were drunk. I hope you enjoy!
Emma lay with her face buried in the pillows listening to her parents talk in what they thought was a whisper.
"But David I already told you."
"I just really don't get it Snow. I don't. You put our whole family relationship in jeopardy."
"I have apologized over and over. What more can I do?"
"You shouldn't have done it in the first place."
"Ok so you go from proposing to me in the car to telling me this is unforgivable?"
Emma wrapped herself up in her sheets. She just wanted silence, it wasn't too much to ask for.
Charming's voice went lower "I'm not saying I can't forgive you, I love you and nothing will change that, I just hope Emma feels the same way. We have just got her back Snow, and I know it's going to take time for her to get used to the idea but I love her and I want to protect her and you going to Rumpelstiltskin really isn't helping."
"I know but David you have to understand-"
"No Snow, I don't have to."
Emma heard footsteps and then the door slam she also heard her mother try to stop him but it was no use. She could hear her Snow sit down and begin to cry, it took all her heart not to feel sorry for her. But she knew this cry, this was the cry that she heard when David chose Kathryn, this was the cry when Regina framed her. It was the cry of feeling helpless like nothing she did would make a difference. She could leave her any longer the grip she had on Emma's heart was just too strong, she got up and walked downstairs.
"I am still unbelievably mad at you." Emma told Snow.
She turned the kettle on and got out two mugs before emptying the right amount of cocoa in to each cup.
"If your mad at me why are you doing this?"
"Because despite what you and David think, I do care about you and it hurts me when your in pain." Emma stated, Snow Smiled. "Don't smile, your supposed to be in pain."
Snow's smile dropped immediately. "Right."
Emma poured the water, stirring in the mix, adding cinnamon and a generous amount of whipped cream. She placed a cup in front of Snow before sitting down and cautiously sipping hers.
"So why did you really do it?" Emma asked her.
"I don't know, it was stupid, I shouldn't have-"
"No I want the honest truth, why?"
Snow sighed. "Emma I just... Didn't want to lose you."
They stared at each other in silence.
When Snow awoke she was curled up on the floor and Emma was sprawled out next to her with a blanket wrapped around the two. She sat up and looked around the apartment, she got up and covered Emma with the blanket and put a pillow under her head. She moved the glasses and the empty wine bottles in to the kitchen made her self a cup of coffee and sat at the table rubbing her temple. Charming walked in to the apartment and was about to speak but Snow shushed him and pointed to Emma who was still asleep.
"I'm sorry I left, is everything OK?" Charming whispered.
"It's ok I understand. Yeah everything's fine. Where have you been?"
"Good. What happened last night? Judging by the amount of empty bottles you had fun."
"I don't remember the details but we stayed up all night and talked, and drank... A lot. You didn't answer me, where did you go last night?"
"I just had some stuff to take care of, it's not important. Then I stopped in the cabin in the woods. Are you and Emma good now?"
"I wouldn't say good, were fine, I explained as much as I could and she tried to understand, it's hard for her is all. What stuff did you have to take care of?"
"Good I'm glad your working it out. Maybe you should do something together today, you know bonding?"
"She's got Henry this afternoon but I can ask her. I don't know if she would want to."
Charming walked behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, Snow looked down and smiled when she caught sight of his swollen knuckle. She spun around facing him.
"Oh my god, what did you do?"
"Snow... It's nothing."
"David what did you do?"
David sighed. "It wasn't intentional-"
"Ugh, I think I'm gonna throw up." Emma mumbled, standing up.
"Good morning Emma do you want a cup of coffee?" Snow asked.
"Yeah and can you get me some aspirin too please?" She said whilst making her way to the bathroom.
"David what happened to your hand?" Snow asked in a sharp whisper.
"Well, I was on my way to the store and I ran in to whale and he was really pissing me off-"
"David please tell me you didn't."
"So I punched him in the face."
"For gods sake David!"
"Snow, he's an ass!"
"Whale was cursed as was I, how many times do we need to go through this?"
"I don't care, that smirk really winds me up and I've seen the way he looks at you. He deserved it."
Snow put her head in her hands, before looking up and heading to their bedroom.
"What are you doing?"
"Getting dressed. I'm going to go apologize to Dr Whale."
"I don't think you are!"
"Yes I am. Stop acting like a child."
"Snow please don't. You've already slept with him do you really need to be friends with him too?"
"David, let it go!"
She grabbed her jacket and walked out the door. David caught the door before running after her. Emma lazily walked out of the bathroom rubbing her eyes.
"The hell did everyone go?"
