Her protectors- part 3
Guess who's back? Back again. Keyboard's back. Tell your friends ;). Sorry, got to love a bit of Eminem for a comeback!
Bluerose921 asked for a part 3 to "Her protectors". This will be the last I will write in this mini series.
Things did not go anywhere near back to normal when Emma got home the next day. She still couldn't face being in the same room as her dad or Killian. Even Henry was too hard and that nearly killed her inside. If she was being completely honest something about her little brother felt uncomfortable too but she knew she had to swallow that down to have Snow always in the room with her- her brother came with her like a package deal. Slowly, Emma was healing. She didn't flinch when she heard her dad, Killian or Henry either talking or creaking the floorboards as they moved around. She could leave the room to use the toilet, brush her teeth or shower without Snow having to wait right outside the door. She still needed her mom with her while she slept though. For all she didn't want her dad or boyfriend in the room Emma loved them dearly and needed to know that one of them was always on guard. This attack had completely broken her and it was going to take a long time before she was remotely healed.
The man had been caught and was being held in the station- that much Emma knew. She didn't know what state her dad had left him in. She rather hoped he bet him to a bloody pulp. But it didn't make Emma feel much safer. What did was knowing she had people who loved her who just wanted to help her feel secure. Emma would get through this- she knew it.
