Time for a Change

" Regina, I can't take this anymore. Why can't we tell anyone? I just don't understand. You have me sneaking around and telling lies to people I care for. Henry doesn't even know. Not that you care. " the ranging voice of a women could be heard throughout the mill's house. Regina stood red faced across from the women. The women was average high with long brown hair. Her green eyes were bright with anger. Regina stepped forward reaching for her but she backed up.

" Please Ruby, I promise soon we can tell everyone. " Regina begged. Something was different about this women. She wasn't the evil adopted mother who controlled Henry. She seem more gentle. She looked at the women named Ruby with care. " I love you Ruby you can't do this.." her voice cracked. Ruby moved toward the door.

" Sorry this is over. I have to worry about my job, I am the sheriff of this town and I need to start acting like it. " Ruby said and dashed out the door before Regina could see her cry. Regina slammed her fist against the table.

" How could I be so stupid! I couldn't get my happiness before I cast this curse and I still can't! " Regina yelled to herself. At first she acted like she cared about Ruby to get back at Mary Margret but the more they spent time together, the more she fell for her. But she couldn't have anyone know. Especially not Henry and not now while the one person who could ruin it all was running around Storybrooke.

"Bye mom!" Henry said as he came downstairs but stopped seeing the tears filling in Regina's eyes. Regina hadn't even noticed she was crying until Henry hugged her.

" It is okay. " He said and pulled away. She truly did love this kid but sometimes it just hard for her. Henry just smiled. He waiting to see if his mom would explained but she just shook her head.

" Go ahead, Mary Margret would be waiting for you. I will be okay. " Regina said and with that Henry left meeting his class so they could go to the hospital to volunteer.

Back at Mary Margret's loft

After yesterday's break down with Emma, Mary Margret was surprise to see her downstairs waiting for her so they could leave for school. Emma didn't tell Mary Margret what it had been about and Mary Margret didn't want to push. She walked over to Emma and smiled. " Ready to do some good and volunteer at the hospital? "She asked in hopes the girl was in a better mood.

"Of course. " Emma said trying her best to smile Today was a new day. She would be stronger today. She didn't like getting false hope that this lady actually care about her so to avoid it she would keep from getting sad in front of Mary Margret. " I am ready." She said walking toward the door and walking out.

Mary Margret pulled up at the hospital and opened the door for Emma to get out. She noticed Henry was standing near a group of his friends when he noticed Emma. Honestly she wished she didn't tell him they would meet up everyday because she didn't know how much she could handle. No matter how strong she seem, she was still young and just wanted parents who truly loved her and Henry gave her nothing but false hope.

"Hey Emma!" Henry said snapping her out of her thoughts. She sighed as she walked next to him inside of the hospital.

" Hey Henry. Look I don't think continuing our plans is a good id-" Henry cut her off. He shook his head.

" No, we need to continue. Please you are only one that understands me. " He said with pleading eyes. Emma watched him carefully. It was so strange because she almost believed him. She wanted too but he had no proof. As if he read her mind,

"Once we are done the stories we need to know get proof. We need to prove to everyone what had happened. It's the only way. " Henry said as they walked into the critical wing, where the near death patients were.

"Henry we can talk about this later. " Emma said as she walked closer to Mary Margret who was discussing the plans for the day. Even though she wasn't their teacher, she had decided to take over this project.

" Decorate the walls however you feel. We want to bring hope to these people. With hope anything is possible. " Mary Margret spoke out loud to the class Emma starred with a bit of a surprise. She had once believe in those words but after countless time being disappointed, she gave up hope. But the way the words came out from Mary Margret, it made her think more about what hope was. She just shook the thought away. " Some of you will be visiting the patients well the rest will decorate then later we will switch. Okay?" She asked and every kid nodded. " First pair, Emma and Henry. You will visit Mr. doe. He is a coma patient with no name. " She said.

Emma starred with her mouth open. Why her and Henry? She was trying to avoid him more. She frowned but let Henry pull her along to the patient's room. Slowly they crept in and looked at the man laying on the bed He had short dirty blonde hair and was dressed in a hospital grown. Emma swear she saw him somewhere but quickly forgot the thought when Henry pulled her over.

" Emma! Do you know who he is?" He asked in a eager tone. He opened his storybook and pointed to a picture of a man that look a lot like the one they were looking at. Everything matched from the blonde hair to the scar on his chin. Emma covered her mouth to hide a scream. This was beginning to become more strange. " Emma this is Prince Charming! Your dad. " Henry said.

" Henry keep your voice down..." Emma hissed as she glanced back at the book once more. " Anything could explain this. Maybe someone wrote stories based off the people here. We can discuss this later. " Emma said in a quiet tone. She was scared. All of this was happening so fast. What if this was true? That would mean she was supposed to be a hero. She just couldn't believe it. But she needed proof, proof that Henry was crazy and all of this was in his head. It only took her a second to realize what she had to do next.

It was around ten at night when Emma decided to sneak out the loft and go back to the hospital. She needed to find out the truth. She wanted to know. Could that man laying there really be her father? Now she sat at his bedside with Henry's storybook on her lap. She told Henry she wanted to read over it. She just didn't tell him who.

" The princess knew in that insist when the ring was place on her finger, she was meant to wear it But she didn't dare tell him. Instead she handed it back saying " Yep right not my type. " She said handing it to the prince who took the ring back. But he knew the truth, she was meant to wear it. But his choice to marry who he wanted had been taken away and none of this matter. " Emma finished the page and was about to continue when a hand grabbed her. She leaped until she realized that the guy had grabbed her. Within seconds, she gathered herself and dashed out the room. She was not ready to admit to herself that this was real and she went to the loft so she could focus on telling herself it was all fake and all in her head.
