Just like the previous morning Emma was awoken by her alarm. She groaned and unplugged it letting the cord hit the floor as she released it. "God I just want to sleep in!" She complained. Emma had barley gotten any sleep last night. She was tossing and turning and constantly getting out of bed to get fresh air. She changed her cloths and walked down stairs. She walked over to the door and grabbed the coat she placed in the coat rack.

"Emma, aren't you going to eat?" Her mother asked.

"Nope, I'll eat later." Emma said and rushed out the door. She walked  to granny's and went inside.

"Morning Emma, how's it going?" Ruby asked. Emma took her normal seat and failed to realise the mayor sitting next to her.

"It's going good." Emma says. Ruby smiled and takes out her pad of paper.

"What can I get you sheriff?" Ruby asked. Emma thought for a moment but was beat by Henry when he spoke her order again.

"Henry, are you ever going to let me order for myself?" Emma asks.

"If you can beat me to it." Henry jokes. He walks to a booth where he continued with whatever he was working on. The bell jingled and Mary Margaret walked in.

"Emma you can't just walk out of the house like that." Her mother said sternly. "You've skipped two meals why?" She asks.

"I said I'd eat later, and I will." Emma said.

"Eat something now Emma." Her mother said. Emma rolled her eyes and ordered a muffin. She took a bite out of it and placed it down.

"Are you happy?" Emma said with annoyance laced in her tone. Mary Margaret nodded and thanked Emma before leaving. Ruby grabbed the muffin and tossed it. "Thank you Rubes." Emma felt a presence behind her and shifted her weight.

"Is this seat taken pretty lady?" The man asked. Regina looked up at the man in total shock, did he have no class? She thought.

"Excu-" Emma started but stopped. Standing in front of her was Neil.

"Emma?" He questioned. She payed for her drink and stood up. She grabbed her coat and walked out. Henry rushed up and followed her as she hurriedly walked to the station. Regina got up and bellowed for her son to stop.

"Henry!" She called out. He just continued walking. She walked down to the station and was soon bumped out of the way by the man Emma was in a hurry to get away from.

"Emma please just talk to me!" Neil begged her. Henry looked at him and tried to figure out who he could be.

"No." She said firmly. Regina tapped her heel.

"Mom, what's going on?" Henry asked. She looked down at Henry.

"Who is this?"  Neil asked.

"My son," she whispered. "Henry go wait in the hall with Regina." She began walking towards the door when Neil spoke again.

"H-h-how old are you?" Neil asked. Regina rolled her eyes and started walking.

"Don't answer him." Emma said.

"How old are you kid!" He shouted. Henry turned in his feet and yelled back at the man.

"11!" He shouted. "Now why is everyone yelling?"  Henry asked.

"He's 11?" Neil asked in a hushed voice. Emma gave a look that showed fear and pain.

"Mom?"

"Is this my son?" Neil asked. Regina's mouth dropped to the floor.
