Heart failure
Once4eva asked for a oneshot of the Charmings finding out Emma was born with a heart failure.
"It's really nothing…"
"Not it is not!" Both Snow and Charming said together.
"Emma Ruth, a heart failure is not nothing." Charming said sternly. "It is very serious and you should have told us months ago. Not when we catch you sneaking off to a bi-annual appointment with Doctor Whale. Emma rolled her eyes, this is exactly why she hadn't told them.
"Minor heart problem, let's not overplay it." She grumbled. "So my ticker's a little dodgy, it's not been dangerous since I was about sixteen. I just have to go to these meetings every six months to make sure it's all the same as it was."
"Well fair enough." Snow said. Then she turned to Charming. Emma sighed in frustration. They were having one of their silent conversations in a language she couldn't translate. They then both got up and moved to the coat stand, taking off their jackets and placing them on. Charming then came back into the living room and scooped Neal out of his playpen.
"Wait, what's going on?" Emma asked.
"Well we're going with you." Charming said matter of factly. "If you won't tell us about the meetings then you won't tell us if anything's changed. Unlike Greg's interrogation it is perfectly normal for people to bring their parents into a medical meeting. Come on. Let's get going."
"But I…I don't…I'm an…"
"Yes Emma very good. Come on or we're going to be late." Snow told her. Emma got up, flabbergasted. How was it they did this?!
