I would love more reviews they really keep me wanting to continue, I can take criticism as well. Thanks to those who have, and a special thanks to the one who has been with me through most all my story's so thanks for that.
When Regina went into Henry's room that night she found him sleeping. His eyelids closed, his emotion peaceful. She remembered the day when he didn't hate her. The days when he saw her as his one and only mommy. She wanted that back, she loved him and always would. She could help like Henry did not love her anymore. He only saw her as evil, why didn't he understand that she just wanted to be happy.
Regina suddenly remembered why she was there in the first place. She needed to find that book. The book that had part in ruining her happiness the first time, and now it was getting in the way again. She looked around the room for a second only to find that it wasn't even in there. She stomped out of the room frustrated. She would have to ask Emma where it was. Regina knew Emma would be asleep now so she decided she could wait until tomorrow.
The next day when Henry and Emma went to school she tore up the house looking for it but she had absolutely no luck. When Emma and Henry did get home, Regina was fuming, she didn't want to have to ask Emma and now she had too. But how was she supposed to get rid of Henry for a while so that she could. Then something rung, how hadn't she thought of it before. Henry could go to Dr. Harpers, like old times.
She quickly told Henry that he would be going. He was furious for a minute, but in the end she convinced him. When he was finally gone Regina took Emma to the park where they sat at a bench and she said "Do you remember how you told me about your dream last night."
Emma listened to Regina with wonder in her eyes. She didn't understand why Regina was asking her about it again. It scarred Emma to even talk about, all she could remember when she talked about it was the evil queen who looked like her mother. Not totally the same though, they might have had the same features but they could not be the same woman. The queen had looked so angry, the queens eyes where deep with hatred, so cold. This woman held not a single string of emotion. Emma's mother had none of those features, in Emma's eyes her mother was the fairest of them all, she could not be the evil queen.
Emma nodded towards Regina who continued "It reminded me of a book I used to read when I was a child, about your age. Did you happen to get your hands on the book? "Emma held a guilty expression as she shook her head and Regina said "you can tell me, I am not going to be mad."
Emma knew she couldn't tell Regina about her and Henrys mission to save the town from the evil queen. But she couldn't help not wanting to lie to her mother, not that her mother would find anything out. She could tell Regina about the book without telling her how she was the savior and the only one who could save the town. Emma played with her hands as she said "we did read the book, I am sorry I lied I dint know if I was allowed to tell you."
Regina caressed Emma's cheek as she said "where is the book now, dear. We can have you reading it if it gives you nightmares; can we. How about you tell me where it is so I can hold onto it until you are younger."
Emma said "but mommy I don't have the book, Henry does. He said he would keep it save from the queen who would be looking for it."
Regina became less relaxed and anger flared in her eyes as she said "Emma, dear there is no queen, this is reality. Did Henry tell you where he kept it?"
Emma shook her head, knowing that her mother was becoming frustrated she said "are you mad at me now. I didn't want to lie to you but Henry said you would stop us….."
She did not have time to continue her sentence because Regina said "stop you from what Emma. What have you and Henry been up too?"
Emma felt scarred as she shakily whispered "From saving the town from the Evil Queen, she has everyone under a curse."
Regina pulled Emma into an embrace to see her that she was not mad and said "It's ok Emma, I'm not mad at you. You didn't know what you were doing was wrong, Henry has put these fantasies into your head. That's why he is getting help from Dr. Harper so we can bring him back to reality."
Emma pulled away from Regina and said "Henry is going to be mad at me for telling you, can we keep it secret."
Regina smiled reassuringly and said "oh, dear we have to tell him or else he won't stop trying to bring you into his little ordeal. Trust me he will not be mad for long, who could resist someone as cute as you." Emma's cheeks turned red at the complement and looked away.
Regina and Emma sat at the park a little longer as Emma told Regina how she had made a couple of new friends at school and that she was right that school would get better with time. When they were done talking about school, Regina drove Emma home where they found Henry waiting for them.
When they were inside Regina sat Henry on the couch and said "what am I going to do with you, Henry. Do you know what Emma just told me, about your little mission."
