The Charming gene
A guest asked for a oneshot of Henry getting into a fight at school.
Snowfalls23, I already have a oneshot of that you can read, it's called "Please never let me lose you" ^^
"Miss Swan, Madam Mayor?" The receptionist called. Both women looked up, having never felt so mortified in their lives. "Mrs Laurence will see you now." They were told. They got up silently, trying to keep their heads down and avoid making eye contact with anyone else as they shuffled into the office.
They only lifted their heads up once inside the small office. They each spied Henry, and both gave him such stern looks that he sunk even lower in his seat. Each mother took a seat either side of the pre-teen.
"So," Regina said coolly. "Fighting?" She asked, no nonsense. The principal nodded seriously.
"Yes, I must admit this is most unlike Henry. We've never had any incidents with him." She told them.
"Do you know what happened?" Emma asked Mrs Laurence. The principal nodded.
"Yes, we have a pretty clear idea. Henry, would you like to tell your moms the story?" She asked him. Henry nodded sheepishly, still looking at the floor.
"Ok." He said quietly. There was a long pause, Regina was just about to prompt Henry to begin when he started talking. "I was walking down the corridor to maths," He mumbled. "When I saw Jason- a son of one of George's knights- picking on Grace- Jefferson's daughter. I went up to him and told him to leave her alone. He just laughed at me and went back to annoying grace… so I tapped him on the shoulder and punched him in the face."
"Way to go, kid!" Emma said proudly. Both the principal and Regina gave Emma a disapproving look. Henry just looked confused."
"What?" Emma said. "Come on! His grandfather is Prince Charming! It's in his blood to be all heroic." She reasoned. Regina rolled her eyes.
"Yes, well, look where all the heroics have gotten your father."
"Hey!-"The principal gave a pointed cough, reminding them both why they were here. Emma sighed, and bit the inside of her cheek to stop her from keeping arguing with Regina.
"So," Regina moved on. "What is to happen with Henry?" She asked the principal.
"Well like I said, we've never seen anything like this before from Henry. Due to that, I think just three days of detention will do. Nothing on his permanent record." Regina nodded, getting up.
"Thank you, Mrs Laurence." She then looked at Henry. "You will also be grounded for the next two weekends when you stay with me." She told him. Henry gave a great, heaving sigh. A thought occurred to Emma.
"Wait, what's happening to this Jason kid? Is he getting some sort of punishment for bullying Grace?" She asked.
"Jason's punishment can't be discussed until he comes back from the hospital, Doctor Whale is having to assess to see if his nose is broken or not." Mrs Laurence told Emma, who then clapped Henry on the back.
"That's my boy! If you're gonna do it, do it right." Regina rolled her eyes, and mumbled something under her breath as she stormed out of the room. Why did Henry have to be Emma Swan's son too!
