"but.....how?" i asked flabbergasted

"when i was 20 years old i THOUGHT i was in love with some guy. we ended up secretly getting married. then i got pregnant and realized i was not in love with this guy. when you were born i thought it was best that i sent you to this world where you would have 2 parents instead of 1." she said 

i looked down into my lap thinking over everything

"who's my dad?" i asked her

i could see her cringe but she answered anyway "robin hood" 

i looked at her for a moment realizing she was tearing up. she stood up and i did as well and i gave her a huge hug.

i was crying into her shoulder realizing that i had been waiting for this moment for 17 years.

"now, i know you want to get back to pan but you are welcome to stay here with me....with Henry." she said breaking the hug

"i'd love that," i began "but I'm in love with pan and i need to be with him. i hope you understand....mom." 

she cried a little bit more

"you don't know how long i've been waiting for you to call me that"

i wiped the tears away and realized it was getting dark

"mom, i need to go. rumple's waiting." i said hugging her one last time

she just nodded and opened the door

"bye my dear daughter" she said shutting the door

i couldn't believe i had found her. that if rumple had never brought me here i would have forever thought that that woman in new York was my ungrateful mother, but now i know that i have a loving and caring mother who regrets ever giving me up. she gave me up for the best, so that i could have the best life possible and somehow we still found our way to each other. 

i know when i leave it will be one of the hardest things i've ever done, but i have to. I'm undoubtedly in love with peter pan and nothing can change that.

***********

"so Tessa i told you to meet me here in the graveyard because, since your my daughter, you have magical blood running through your veins. you need to learn how to control it. follow me." Regina said

Regina had called me the next day telling me to meet her in some graveyard. and that it was important

we walked to a grave stone that had 2 large doors on the front. Regina or mom, pushed open one of the doors, letting me in. I'm just gonna call her mom for now on since i actually call her mom in real life.

mom pushed the grave sideways and revealed a spiraling staircase that went downward. i climbed the stairs after her and it revealed a huge room full of potions and anything and everything magical.

"so this is where I'm going to teach you how to control your magic." she said

everyday for the past 3 weeks i met my mom at the graveyard. we'd go over spells, different potions, what the potions caused, and when i needed to use them. 

using magic was amazing. it was one of the best things i'd ever done in my entire life.

after our lesson i walked back to rumple's shop and i realized how much i missed pan. it was undeniable the pain in my stomach that appeared when i was without him for long periods of time. i needed to find a way. i needed to find that stupid bracelet. 

but i had searched that shop a million times, looking in every corner every crevice and the bracelet was no where in sight.

i sat down on the couch and took out the key that i had stored in my boot. i ran my fingertips over it feeling the cold metal that was painted gold.

where would rumple hide that stupid bracelet? 

all the sudden the key began glowing a strange purple color. it levitated from the palm of my hand and began moving in mid air. it floated to the shop part of the store and suddenly fell with a crash on a rug.

what the hell? 

i removed the rug from the surface the key had dropped and found a latch door. what?? i opened the latched door and there was a little ladder that led down into darkness. literally. you couldn't see past the 3rd step on the ladder.

i looked around the shop and found a flash light and descended into the basement. when i reached the bottom of the ladder i was standing in a long hallway and at the end of the hallway was a box with a key hole in it.

i walked over and stuck the gold key in it, turned it, heard a click, and opened the box lid to reveal...

the bracelet.

yes oh my god! the bracelet was gorgeous. (in the media section)

i all the sudden heard voices above me. and someone rattling a door knob. rumple must be back! i quickly shoved the bracelet into my pocket, put the box back and sprinted for the ladder.

as i pushed the rug back over the latch door rumple walked in

"oh Tessa, hi" he said "scurry off to your room me and my....friend here have some talking to do" 

i nodded and went to my room or the back room or whatever you wanna call it.

i shut the door separating the 2 sections of the store and i couldn't hear them anymore. 

i brought the bracelet out of my pocket admiring its features. it was all silver and had 8 silver flowers on it. it was so pretty. now i have to decide when I'm ready to leave.

but what about my mom? i just found her and now i was gonna leave her. leave her and more than likely never see her again.

could i possibly do that? or would i chicken out and stay with her and never go back to the love of my life?
