Bonding
The fresh scent of bacon was what woke Emma up. She turned to see Mary Margret had left her. She almost panicked until the women was seen basically dancing around the kitchen. Emma sat up on Mary Margret's bed a bit confused. Last night Mary Margret had been upset after seeing Regina kissing David and now she was dancing around. Emma slid off the bed which made the women turn with a smile. " Oh you are awake! Finally. I decided to make you a big breakfast after being such a sweet girl last night. " She said and placed a plate of Eggs and bacon on the table that matched a second plate that was already there. She turned off the burner and walked by Emma.
" It was nothing really... you have been nothing but nice to me. I just wanted to do the same. " Emma said and gasped when Mary Margret hugged her. She let her go and bent down to be eye level.
" Emma I just want you to know how lucky I am to have found you. That is why I decided to not be silly. I am going to continue to voluntary at the hospital and I would like it if you would with come with me. " Mary Margret said. To be honest with herself she didn't want to be alone with David. Emma knew this and figure it was time for all of them to get to know each other. If she was gonna to break the curse she had to be focus on rebuilding the relationships here. Plus she wanted to be close to her parents.
" Of course! But could I eat the breakfast you made?" She asked with a chuckle. Mary Margret walked over to the table and they both sat down. She took a bit of the eggs and smiled. " This is so good. You cook really good. " Emma said closing her eyes in delight. Mary Margret chuckled.
"Thanks, I don't exactly remember who taught but I guess I always was good. I am glad you like it. " Mary Margret said. After they both finished eating, Mary Margret got up grabbed her stuff. Emma followed her out to the car and together they drove to the hospital.
" Hello there Ms. Blanchard and Emma. I am glad you two came today. David was asking for you two. We want him to go out today and do some work outs. You guys are welcome to take him but be patient as he is still weak. " Dr. Wale told them. Emma stood on the side of Mary Margret and noticed her stiffen a bit. Emma grabbed her hand and pulled her toward the room.
" Mary Margret, Emma." David said sitting from his chair. He had improve a lot since they first brought him back here. Regina must have been doing something today as she wasn't here. Emma walked over first and waved to him.
" Hey Mr. David. Dr. Wale said you can go out today to do some work outs. I hope you don't mind us taking you. " Emma said in a gentle tone. She looked at Mary Margret who was standing still behind her.
" Yeah we could walk through the forest, there is a path to a river" Mary Margret finally said with a small smile. She finally loosen up. David gave her the warmest smile he had. It melt her heart. He held his hand out in hope she would help him up. She hesitated but grabbed his hand. His hands were a little rough like he used to work on stills but at the same time his touch was soft and gentle. Emma noticed her blushing and she just smiled.
" Okay lets go!" Emma said cheerfully. They walked out the door and heading down the side of the building toward the path. Emma walked on the side of the pair but could tell they were talking so she gave them a little space.
" So have you began to remember more?" Mary Margret asked. She was close enough that their shoulders would brush together. She totally forgot about the scene she almost walked in on. She just couldn't keep her heart from racing when she seen him.
"Honestly no. All I remember is I had just proposed to Regina. And that I am supposed to love her. But nothing really makes sense. I just feel like a different person. I try to regain the feelings like when she came to visit so I kissed her. But the feelings I remember don't seem to be real. " David said and Mary Margret tried to hide her own feelings.
" Maybe you just need time. You were in a coma for a long time. " Mary Margret said but David shook his head. They were getting closer to the river.
" No I don't think so and as much as she says she loves me I don't believe it. I think she moved on. She won't tell if she had been seeing anyone while I was in a coma. But I know she had been. Honestly the only thing that has been making sense is you. " David said as he stopped to look at her. Emma was standing a foot behind them but heard what he said. She was happy. Maybe breaking the curse wouldn't be as hard as she thought.
" Oh David... I have to say the time I have known you, I have grew to like you but I can't come betwe-" her words were cut off when he cupped her cheek and pulled her into a kiss. It was soft gentle kiss that only last for seconds and made her want more. She looked at him and seen Emma in the corner of her eye, smiling.
" When I kiss you I feel something not at all how Regina's kiss felt like. I don't want to pressure you. So we don't have too talk about this right now. Instead lets enjoy this picnic. " David said in his charming way as he stopped in front of the blanket with food on it.
" How?" Emma said in surprised. He turned and poked her noise making her giggle. It was a sound she hadn't made in years. She was surprised.
" I knew you two couldn't resist coming to see me so I told one of the nurses to prepare this. I knew this was the closest place to the hospital so I figure we would come here. " He said as Mary Margret and Emma sat down the blanket. He sat down so he was cross from the to ladies. " You two had suddenly become my two favorite ladies. " He said. Emma wanted to cry. She never felt like she was part of a family until now. She couldn't help herself she threw herself into David's arms who hugged her back. She sat back.
" I don't know about you two but I am hungry." Mary Margret suddenly said making the two laugh. After that they sat in silent as each of them ate. Emma could almost forget the fact she was an orphan and that they were just one big happy family. Once they finished David decided to have some fun so he pulled a silly string can from behind his back and spray them both.
"Hey!" both said together. Emma shot up and ran toward him. He laughed and ran off toward a tree. Mary Margret just watched them both. She could the pair were hitting it off well as if they have known each forever. She almost could image him being her father. Emma's thoughts matched Mary Margret's.
" Get back here! How dare you spray me!" Emma said laughing. David pretend to be out of breath as Emma attacked him. For once in her life she felt a kid having a playful day with her parents. She stole his spray can and sprayed him. He laughed.
" Hey not fair you. You are in good shape for a thirteen year old. This old man is out of breath so you win. " He said but Emma shook her head. He was barely thirty years old. He wasn't old. He laid down on the blanket and looked up at Mary Margret. " You aren't going to gain up on me too are you? " He asked with a smirk. Emma sat down on the blanket as she faced David.
" I wasn't gaining up on you, you were the one who sprayed us. " Emma said with a teasing tone. She crossed her arm and scooter closer to Mary Margret. " You will stick up for me right. " She said but double over in laughter as Mary Margret tickled her and David leaned over to tickle both of them. Their laughter echoed through the forest. Anyone could hear them and it just so happened Regina was walking by where she heard it. At first she thought it was just a family enjoying themselves until she spotted them. Her eyes narrowed. This was not happening! Regina walked closer and crossed arms.
" David. " was all she said and suddenly three pair of eyes were on her. David broke apart and stood up. Regina's face was glowing with hatred.
" Oh hey Regina, doctor told me to get out so Mary Margret, Emma and I took a walk. " David said. Regina held her hand up. She didn't want to hear anymore.
" Lets go David we need to speak. As for you Mary Margret I better not see you with my fiance' again. " She snapped. David gave the two an apologetic look before following her. Emma wanted to scream! The Evil Queen was taking her dad away. She was just starting to enjoy herself. She was opening up, letting lose and now she regretted it. She knew this was too good to be true. Only one way to fix it, to break the curse. She knew he loved Mary Margret not Regina. She just needed to remind him.
" Lets go Emma. " Mary Margret said. Emma could tell she was hurt once more. Why couldn't David just tell her no and stay with them. But Emma knew there was nothing they could do. Emma got up and walked with Mary Margret. She placed her hand in Mary Margret's hand without saying a word.
" Don't worry I can tell he likes you. He will realize that. " Emma said. Mary Margret smiled at the girl as they made their way back to the car.
" I know Emma and you are one smart girl. I will just let time tell all. How about we go home and watch movies. " Mary Margret said as she drove them home. Emma wanted to cry. She said go home. She hadn't realize until then that the loft was her home too.
" Emma before the movie I want to talk to you. " Mary Margret called as Emma was coming down with her baby blanket in her hand. " What is that you got?" Mary Margret asked. Emma looked a little embarrassed as she remember she never really told her about it.
" This is my baby blanket... I know I am too old to carry one around but it is the only thing I have of my parents...when I watched movies, unusually alone , I would cuddle up to it... I hope you don't mind. " Emma said a bit nervous. Often she had been made fun of for having it. She was thirteen after all but it was all she had.
"Of course not, now come here I want to show you something." Mary Margret said. Emma leaped on the sofa and sat close to her. She turned to face her smiling. Mary Margret handed her some papers, Emma knew what they were instantly. " Do you know what these are?" Mary Margret asked.
" Yes adopting papers... you find me a family Mary Margret..?" She asked a little sad. This wasn't the plan! She didn't want to go. She wanted to stay here. She loved Mary Margret. Why was she getting rid of her. Before Emma knew it she was crying. It was happening again, she was getting thrown away. Suddenly her world was spinning. Mary Margret noticed this.
" Yes I did but not what you think-" Mary Margret couldn't finish. Emma was shaking now.
" No! I don't want to leave! Why? I love you mom..." She trailed off realizing what she just called her. She covered her mouth and closed her eyes. " I am sorry I meant Mary Margret...I..." her words got lost in her tears. Mary Margret cupped Emma's face so she would look at her.
"Emma look at the name on the paper. " She said and Emma slowly glanced at it, on the bottom row where it said adopting parent it read Mary Margret.
