Awake

A guest asked for a oneshot of when Charming wakes up from his coma he goes and finds Emma.

There was only one thing on his mind when he woke up in this strange new land with weird beeping things and strange clothing- his family. Was Emma here? How long had he been asleep? Had she broken the curse, had it really been twenty eight years? All these thoughts were racing through his head as he went stumbling through the strange building. People were trying to stop him, but he was just strong and fast enough to get away from them. He made it out into the bright day, the sun hurting his eyes. But he wouldn't let that or anything else put him off. He had Snow and Emma to find. He kept stumbling on despite his legs telling him to stop. He didn't even know where to look; he'd never been here before. For all he knew Snow and Emma weren't here, Regina might have separated them. But he had to try. He ran to the only place that seemed vaguely familiar- the forest. He and Snow had met in the woods; maybe she would find him in another set of woods.

The more Charming ran through the trees screaming the names of both his wife and daughter the more he felt the world become fuzzy. He fought it for as long as he could, determined to be reunited with them. But he could only fight for so long before his world turned black.

When Charming felt himself waking up again he could hear her voice- his Snow's voice. He opened his eyes and there she was looking greatly concerned. He smiled weakly at her.

"Snow." He whispered, unable to speak properly. She looked confused and Charming's heart sank. She didn't remember him, just like when she drank that potion. Next, a blond woman came over.

"Snow? What does he mean snow? It's spring."

"He's confused Emma. He's just woke up from a coma he's been in for God knows how long." Charming felt his heart jolt. This was her. This was that little baby he'd put through the wardrobe. He tried to reach for her, to hold her again, but she pulled back. The fear in her eyes…Charming had never been so hurt in all his life.

"David, my name is Mary Margaret Blanchard, I volunteer at the hospital where you've been in a coma. This is Emma Swan. She's the depute at the sheriff's station and also my friend. I know this is a lot to take in but we need to take you back there. You're not well, Mr Nolan. You will be soon but you can't just coming round out straight after a coma. Come on, Emma's car is nearby. We'll get you back." A car? What the Hell was a car? Why was Snow saying her name was Mary Margaret? She clearly didn't know Emma was their daughter, but how Charming didn't know. She looked like the perfect blend of both of them. But he couldn't do anything just now, he was too weak. He would let the pair take him back to this so called hospital and when he was stronger he would pull his family back together.
