Bicycle ride
Reviewer asked for a oneshot of Emma not being able to ride a bike. Charming teaches her while Snow stands nervously on the side-line. Hello down under!
Guest 100: I'm afraid I've already covered ice skating- which is too close to figure skating. Susana and FictionLover12 I can't do yours either as I said I wouldn't do any more based on anyone watching a video of Emma. Sorry!
But oh my gosh! I can't thank you all enough- 200 followers! I hope you all continue to love the oneshots :). So in celebration hold onto your hats! As I'm sure your email alerts told you I've got a lot on oneshots today! The extra celebration will be that today's lot should take me to 600 chapters! Woohoo, best readers ever!
"Careful!" Snow yelped as she saw how wobbly Emma was on the bike- even with Charming holding the bottle of the seat. Charming waved over at his wife.
"We're fine Snow! Emma's got this down!" He assured her. Snow was still worried- she didn't want Emma to fall. For one thing it would hurt and for another Snow knew it would make Emma feel embarrassed.
"Pray she's alright buddy." Snow said softly to Neal who was bundled in her arms.
"Ok Em, ready to move?" Charming asked excitedly. He couldn't believe he was getting the chance to have this moment with Emma. Emma nodded, her concentration to focused to speak. "Good, just remember what we talked about: keep your knees straight as you pedal and don't look down. You've got a helmet on so you're fine. And your elbow and knee pads are definitely on under your clothes?"
"Yes- but is that not mentioning them?" Emma snapped. This was her compromise. She hadn't wanted to wear them in the first place but her parents had insisted.
"Sorry kiddo- just making sure. I'm right behind you, you're perfectly safe. Ready to go?" Emma nodded, her stomach doing cartwheels.
"Alright then, start pedalling!" Emma did as her father said and he followed behind her. When he was confident that Emma was alright he let go of the seat and just jogged along behind her for safety. Despite knowing this was going to happen Snow had to restrain herself from yelling at Charming to grab the seat again. She was terrified Emma was going to fall. After a few minutes Emma started to wobble again and Charming caught hold of her before she crashed over.
"I thought you were holding on!" Emma shouted.
"I was, but you were doing fine. You done really well Em. Want to stop for the day?" Emma nodded, practically jumping off the seat. Snow came over with Neal.
"You did so well Emma." She said proudly. Emma just shrugged, shaking a little. Charming wrapped an arm around her shoulders.
"I think some ice cream might be in order!" He said leading Emma off.
