Henry awoke to a warm presence against his back. Henry sighed happily, enjoying the nice feeling. "Peter" he gasped, moving in his arm.
"mmmhmm" Peter mumbled.
"You're still in my bed." The other boy's eyes snapped open. "Did anyone see" Henry gasped, grabbing the bottom of his shirt that had ridden up in the night.
"I don't think I'd still be if they did" Peter asked, calming the boy.
"I thought you were going back under the bed" Henry said, not regretting what the outcome had been.
"I fell asleep" Pan admitted, blushing. "You were just so warm." Henry smiled. There was a knock on the door. Peter didn't have to be told. HE jumped over Henry and slipped under the bed.
"Good morning" Emma said, opeing up the door, carrying two mugs, one filled with hot coco with cinnamon. Henry smiled again that day.
"Thanks Mom" he said.
"I convinced Regina to let you go out today" She said.
"Really" Henry said, bouncing on the bed.
"She and Mr. Gold will be nearby the entire time, just in case."
"Has there been any sign of Pan?" Henry said, worry tainting his voice.
"No." Emma scowled. "The dwarves have gone through every inch of the mine, Robin Hood and Regina have searched the forest and Mr. Gold says he's not in the less crowded parts of the town.
"Do you think Mother Superior was wrong? He's not alive" he said hopefully?
"Mother Superior is certain he's somewhere. Even Tink agrees with her."
"I hope she was wrong" Henry said sadly. "I just want this to end."
"It will" she promised. "Now get dressed before Regina changes her mind" Emma said, ruffling her son's hair.
The moment the door closed Peter got out. "That was close" he said.
"Yea" Henry agreed. "I'm sorry but I have to go" Henry said.
"It's fine" Peter said. "I'll forgive you…. For a kiss" he smiled. Henry laughed and then covered his mouth. "Don't worry she can't here" Peter said. Henry went into his closet and picked out clothes.
"I'm changing in the bathroom he said, smirking. Peter laughed.
"Wait, where's my kiss" he asked? Henry wrapped his arms around the other boy's neck and stood on his toes to kiss him. "I forgive you" Peter smiled.
Henry and Regina walked through the park, licking ice-cream. "It's nice to get out of my room" Henry said truthfully. Peter was wonderful but he needed contact with the outside world.
"You really needed it" Emma said. They sat down on a bench next to the water. "You're a strong kid" She said, looking down at Henry. "I don't know if I could have gone through all that at your age and come out so happy.
"I guess I've been ready for all this since I opened that book." He smiled thinking about the book he always carried with him.
"You didn't bring it" Emma commented and Henry pated himself. "I found it in the dining room." She took the large book out of her bag and handed it to him.
"You know this book brought us together" Henry said. "It got everyone to remember. We wouldn't be here without it."
"No" Emma said softly. "You did that Henry. You came all the way to my apartment and brought me here. You made everyone remember." Henry smiled. She sounded just like Peter. "If you want my opinion, I think you're story should be in there." The turned through the pages a=looking at each or the pictures.
"Emma" a man called.
"Hey bud I'll be just over there" she said.
"Ok" Henry mumbled, engrossed in the book. He turned to the last story. It was one of his favorites. It was Pinocchio's story. He liked it because it talked about his mom after she was born. The only other story was in was Snow's and Charming's. She's only actually alive for one line. This story explains how she was put in the wardrobe. He turned to the last page of the story. "What?" he whispered, his eyes growing wide. There more pages. Another story had been written.
Henry tuned to see a picture of Mr. Gold killing Peter with his dagger. The next one showed his Mother and Hook being thrown from the time vortex. He turned the page again to see himself, drowning.
"Our Story" he whispered. He turned to the last page that showed them sleeping together last night. "And it's not finished.
"What's wrong?" Emma asked sitting down.
"Nothing" Henry squeaked. "I was just thinking of Pan" which was actually true. He half listened as his mom went on again about how he was safe and everything's was going to be ok. He was tired of hearing it. He just wanted to yell 'I love Peter Pan. He's changed.' But he can't. He stuck here being bored to death by the same words over and over again.
"`I wanna see Ariel" Henry interrupted his mother who looked shocked at his outburst.
"Were you listening" she asked?
"Yes but I just thought of mothing."
"And you need Ariel?" She asked.
"Yea" Henry said already standing up.
"Do you even know where she is" Emma asked, standing up as well.
"The sea" he stated. He took off down the street, his mother running behind. Ariel needed to see this He didn't know why but she just had to. He was right about where she was. The mermaid stood ankle deep in water staring out at the water. "Ariel" he yelled.
"Henry?" She asked.
"YouneedtoseethisiwasreadingmybookandlookwhatIfound" he rushed in one breath.
"Slow down" the redhead said. Henry pushed the book inter her had. Emma looked at them, shocked and worried.
"What am I looking f… oh" she gasped. She glanced from henry to the book. "But" She said. She glanced at Emma worriedly.
"What is it" Emma asked angrily making a grab for the book. Ariel pulled back, avoiding the hand.
"Henry why did you bring your mom" Ariel hissed.
"I just knew I had to show you. I didn't think about anyone else." He said, just then realizing his mistake.
"You knew" she asked. "Like…" She glanced at Emma. "Like before she whispered." Henry nodded.
"I think I know why" Arial whispered to him.
"What's going on" Regina shouted, followed by Mr. Gold and Merrie Margret.
"Go" henry begged. Ariel turned, removing her bracelet and diving into the water.
"Henry what's going on" Regina shouted.
"I have a story" he said.
"What" Snow asked?
"My story is being written in the book. No one should know it before it's finished" he said. Henry smiled and walked through the group.
"Where are you going?" both his moms shouted at once.
"Home" Henry smiled. Everyone stared at him, their looks ranging from intrigued to afraid.
