Emma
The door opened and I threw the potion bottle at who I thought was my mom but was my dad.
"What the hell?" he asked picking it up and then sighing. The sight of it being my dad didn't make it any better though.
"Emma listen" he said and I shook my head.
"No dad you listen. I know you were a part of this just as much as Snow. Real hero act, you guys. " I said and he sighed.
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that and I should have talked mom out of it" he said his hands in the air.
"Yeah you should have. You enslaved her, both of you." I said shaking my head.
"We just wanted to protect you" he said and I rolled my eyes.
"Then you do a whole dad lecture you don't enslave her… You know what tell perfect Snow White that i'm leaving and not coming back" I yelled at him before leaving.
"Emma where are you gonna go?" he asked.
"Anywhere but here" I shouted leaving. The only place I can think to go is Regina's house and I hope it's ok with her.
I knocked on the door and Henry opened it.
"Hey what are you doing here?" he asked.
"I um need a place to stay for a few days do you think she will be ok with me staying here for a bit" I said trying to keep myself from crying.
"Yeah i'm sure she will, are you ok?" he asked and I nodded. I went in and Regina was cooking supper.
"Oh hey is there anyway I can stay here just for a few days?" I asked and she nodded.
"Yeah sure after supper I will set up the spare room for you " she said and I nodded.
"Thank you" I can tell she knows what happened.
I can smell that she's making spaghetti and garlic bread. I tried to ignore the nausea I instantly got. Recently I can't be around random the smells or eat random food. Which is weird I didn't really get that way with Henry, but that's good because you can't be a picky eater in jail.
"You ok?" Henry asked getting me a bottle of water.
"Fine thanks" I said sitting down next to him.
"Hey are we still having movie night?" Henry asked his mom.
"I don't see why not we have a good movie if you are interested in joining us?" she asked me and I smiled.
"Sounds like fun, do you have movie night often?" I asked liking the 'not mayor of storybrooke constantly trying to save the town from one problem to the next' side of Regina.
"Every Sunday" Henry answered and I smiled at him. He's soon going to grow out of doing movie night but it's cute to see they have traditions.
"Yeah we have a big meal and then we watch movies in pjs and have some kind of dessert, like today is brownie sundaes" he said.
"That sounds like fun" I said and we ate supper me declining on the garlic bread because it will make me sick. After supper was done Henry ran upstairs to get into pjs leaving just me and Regina.
"If you don't want me to be here…?" I trailed off and she shook her head.
"Don't be ridiculous you are welcome here… what happened?" she asked and I shrugged.
"Just don't want to be around them right now… I will get an apartment soon and be out of your hair" I said and Henry came running downstairs in a baggy shirt and fluffy pj bottoms.
"What are you doing we can't have movie night without pjs" he said and Regina gave him her look.
"Henry… we have company" she said in her warning voice but he didn't seem fazed by it at all.
"Mom isn't company… company is when you have those boring business people over and I have to wear fancy clothes and eat fancy food and be a good boy and you bribe me with a dessert of my treat" he said and I laughed and she rolled her eyes.
"It's ok, I don't want to interfere with any traditions… I just don't have pjs" I said and Henry gave me a confused look as if randomly realizing it's weird that I came over for a bit without clothes.
"I will get you some" she said and I followed her upstairs.
"So movie night?" I asked and she laughed.
"Yeah when Henry was five it was the only way to get him to go to sleep especially on sundays when he knew tomorrow he has school and he always falls asleep to movies so somewhere it became a tradition" she said and I smiled. That's so cute, I love family Regina.
"I always wondered if normal families had gameday and movie night and silly little traditions… I never had that…" I said and she gave me a pitying/guilty smile.
"Well you will once this little guy is growing up" She said handing me some pjs and leaving me in there so I can change.
Regina
I assumed that Henry would let me or Emma have the recliner but no when we got down stairs he was sat under a blanket on the recliner eating popcorn watching the trailers before the movie.
I glared at him and he gave me an evil smile.
"We only had two blankets" he said winking at me and I groaned and Emma stood there awkwardly.
"I don't need a blanket" Emma said and I grabbed a blanket from the closet and handed it to her.
"Come on Henry you know where the extra blanket are" I said and he sighed before going up to push play. I watched as Emma who I will admit looks cute in pajamas got on the couch not picking up on Henry's plan. I know he is trying to get us together but it's not going to happen.
About have way through the movie Henry fell asleep or at least pretended to well enough that I'm convinced he really did fall asleep.
"That kid is something" I said and she laughed.
"Hey you raised him" she said and I mock laughed.
"Oh please you drifted off earlier it's definitely a matter of nature over nurture" I said and she laughed.
There was an awkward pause before she spoke again.
"What are we going to do? We have to get that custody agreement written up" she said and I sighed. Secretly I don't want to do this, I just feel like it will get ugly and I would prefer us just handle it well without lawyers but I also know that's unlikely.
"Yeah I really don't want to do that" I admitted and she looked over at me.
"Well neither do I but how else are we supposed to share kids… move into together?" she asked like it was ridiculous but deep down I want her to. This feels so natural, us having movie night. I'm not saying we have to date but this house is big enough that she could live here and I could barely see her.
"Yeah that would be silly" I said laughing it off.
"Well I mean it would probably make raising a baby easier" she laughed and I shrugged.
"Up to you?" I asked and she stopped looking at me shocked.
"What?" she asked.
"I mean this house is big enough for you, us and the baby and still having other rooms left over. This way we don't have to worry about you finding a good apartment… I mean there isn't that many in this town and…" I said almost trailing off.
"Do you think Henry will be ok what that?" she asked.
"Are you kidding me? He would be so excited to hear you are moving in" I said.
"You sure I won't drive you crazy?" she asked.
"Well you probably will but that's life... "
"Are you sure about this?" she asked.
"Yeah if you are?"
"Alright" she said and honestly i'm kind of glad she agreed I honestly like her being here.
Emma
The next day I went by the apartment not ready to go deal with my mom or dad but I know that I need my stuff. I don't think they will take it well that i'm moving in with her.
"Hey where have you been?" she asked and I sighed.
"Regina's" I said moving past her and starting to pack up which thanks to being a foster kids is always light packing.
"Regina's?" she asked shocked.
"Yeah might as well live there since we are married" I said.
"Emma come on I know you are upset…" he said.
"No you don't get to tell me how to act...you enslaved her! That has been illegal here since like 1800's" I shouted grabbing my stuff.
"Where are you going to live?" mom asked.
"Regina's" I repeated.
"Emma listen to us…" Dad trailed. "How did you pack that fast?"
"I was foster kid dad. I'm leaving" I shouted before leaving.
"Emma" they said following me.
"No ok, you listen to me. You had no business getting yourself involved in the situation between me and Regina." I shouted.
"We were just trying to protect you"
"I'm a grown woman I can protect myself… i've been doing it all my life. You missed the chance to protect me get over it!" I shouted leaving tears in my eyes as I turned and left.
Sorry for the wait and it's not a very good chapter but I will try to get next one up soon. Let me know what you think.
