Time Period: A Flashback-Regina's miscarriage with Solomon
Rumple's p.o.v
Henry and Avalon are safe at school. Carefree, I enjoy my daily stroll through Story Brooke. My
conscience warns something bad is happening at the mayor's office. I sense mother's presence
there. Mother and her evil minions are torturing Regina who is pregnant with my baby. I am
absolutely livid. I banish them to a far away land. Unable to carry her own weight, Regina collapses
in my arms. Her blood stains my clothes. I touch her stomach hoping to feel our twenty week old
fetus move. The fetus has grown quite still, perhaps dead. My mind flashes back to the time when
Milah experienced a miscarriage. A doctor reconfirms my worst fear at the hospital. Avalon is a
pillar of strength for Regina and me.

Regina's p.o.v
"Regina" a soothing male voice whispers. "Rumple?" my spirit responds walking toward the
light. The light reveals my hospital recovery room. Solemn, my family and a doctor stand around
my bed. "You were attacked. You had a miscarriage. Your son, Solomon whom you carried for
almost twenty weeks died" the doctor informs me. Speechless, I am completely numb. An
emergency D&C gives Rumple, Avalon, and me an opportunity to bond with Solomon briefly.

Regina's p.o.v
"Hello, Regina and Mr. Gold" cheerfully, Archie greets us. Rumple and I sit far apart on the couch in his office. "I don't do therapy, but I trust you" I inform
Archie. "Well ok thanks" Archie responds. "I am here to support Regina" Rumple adds. Gradually, my life becomes an open book. It feels strange and yet
comforting for me to discuss my miscarriage. Archie and Rumple are understanding and compassionate.

Regina's p.o.v
The doorbell rings and I answer the door. Avalon trails right behind me. "I believe this baby blanket
belongs to you" Rumple offers handing me a blanket. The name Solomon is stitched neatly on the
fabric. I remember I miscarried our son Solomon. Solomon was wrapped in this blanket when a
nurse presented him to me.
Time Period: A Flashback
Regina's p.o.v
The forest contains a magical portal, unknown to most, except for Avalon and me. We have brought
Solomon's baby blanket with us just in case. The portal reveals a farm that is located in the middle
of nowhere. We assume this is Old McDonald's farm. We approach Little Boy Blue who is fast
asleep in a haystack. Avalon's sneezing awakes him. He stares at us blankly instead of crying.
He has Rumple's eyes, but I am hesitant to claim him as our son.
Time Period: A Flashback
Place: The Park
Scenario: Rumple and Regina observe their children enjoy the playground
"I am the dark one" I remind Regina. "You are the former dark one" she corrects me. "Ava and
Solomon are good right now. Will they end up evil like me?" I wonder. "They are slightly dark. They
are not too far gone" she assures me.

Regina's p.o.v
"Sweet dreams, Ava" Rumple chants putting our infant daughter into her crib. I am just in awe of
Rumple. Although his heart belongs to another, he still makes time for our children and me. He
helped me to renovate Avalon's old bedroom. The bedroom is now a nursery for her doppelganger.
"Papa, please read me a bedtime story" Solomon urges Rumple. "Yes of course, my sweet dear
boy" he agrees.
Time Period: A Flashback
Rumple's p.o.v
Some idiot, presumably me, thought it was a good idea to treat Regina and the baby to lunch at
Granny's. Belle, Emma, Hook, David, and Mary Margaret caught us. They assumed we were having
an affair and the baby was our lovechild. Apart of myself loved Regina, but I never acted on my
feelings. They didn't know that Avalon had been resurrected. Regina and I kept this secret until
now. They calmed down after I told them that we had been granted a second chance.

Scenario: Regina's Cancer Scare
"What was Dr. Whale's final prognosis?" Rumple inquires. I take in a deep breath before speaking. Robin squeezes my hand tightly. "I don't have cancer. It was just a scare"
I reveal. "I am happy for you, dearie" Rumple smirks. Solomon jumps for joy. I am grateful I will be able to see him and my unborn daughter grow up.
Time Period: A Flashback
Scenario: Lulu's birth
Rumple's p.o.v
Regina was kind enough to allow me to attend and witness the birth at the hospital. My mind replayed the moment when Avalon was born. Regina turned down my offer
to catch the baby. Robin and Mr. Whale provided extra support for her as well. Lulu Sophia Hood entered a world full of love and joy.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Rumple's p.o.v
Now until my heart stops beating, I am unconditionally sincerely yours. Godspeed and good luck are what I wish for you. Heaven only knows how far we have come and
where we are going next.
