Emma's old adventures
EmmaAthens2013 asked for a oneshot of Snow and Charming asking Emma about all the heists Emma went on with Neal.
"I've always wondered," Snow began, as she sat with her family on a rainy Saturday afternoon. "Your swan necklace, Emma. Where did you get it?"
"Neal gave it to me." Emma answered, smiling down at the little key ring attached to a chain around her neck. "Well, he stole it for me." She said honestly.
"Wait, my dad was a thief?" Henry asked. Emma could see her parents clearly wanted more information as well.
"Well life was hard back then. He wasn't a thief. Not really. We just didn't know how to get by without it. And yeah, we didn't need this key ring but he wanted to make me smile." Emma told them. "Not that stealing's ok Henry. We were very wrong." Emma told her son before he got any ideas.
"So…what other adventures did you and Neal get yourselves into?" Charming asked. Emma chuckled.
"Oh all sorts of things." She said.
"Well come on then, tell us! We should know exactly who we named our son after." Snow egged Emma on.
"Well, where to begin…" Once Emma started it was hard to stop. Story after story tumbled out about all the adventures she'd had with her first love. After finishing a particularly funny one about how she and Neal had hid in an ice cream van for two hours to stay away from an annoyed shop owner they'd stolen from…only to then have to run away from the ice cream man after helping themselves to a few ice creams each…she turned to see how happy Henry was. She hadn't realised how little she'd actually told him about his father. She could see her parents were enjoying the stories too. They loved anything to do with her past. She'd have to have a think over the next few days for some more stories to tell them all.
