A Painful Death of Brokenheart Syndrome

⚠️TW: DEATH AND SELF HARM⚠️

I walked to the door after hearing the doorbell and i opened it to her. The woman who I watched die in a hospital bed...

I rushed to the hospital after a phone call, worried for my wife. When i arrived she was in the bed. "Emma!" I hurried to my wife's side, tears flowing down my face. "Emma you have to be okay!" She looked at me slowly and henry walked up to me with Dr Whale.

"Madam mayor?" He asks me softly and i looked at him, sobbing. "She won't.. she won't make it." He looked down and nibbled on his bottom lip.

"N-no. You're wrong. She will. She will be fine. She has to be. She will be. You're wrong." I grabbed her hand and watched her carefully.

"Gina.. I-it's time." She says softly. "It's okay. I'll be okay. You will be okay." I shook my head, sobbing into our hands. "It's okay. L-let.. me go.." she closed her eyes and i heard henry sobbing behind me. Sje let out a breath and that was it. She was gone. She didn't breathe again. She just laid there, pale. Her lips turning purple and cold. I dropped to the floor, breaking down and soaking my shirt.

"Emma.." I gulped, looking at her. "What.. you.." I couldn't spit it out. She helped herself into the house, getting comfortable as if she were still here. I shut the door and follow her to the living room. "You're here?"

She smiled at me and nodded, "Of course honey. Why wouldn't I be?" She pulled me down to her, kissing my lips.

I felt her touch as if she was here. It was real, all of it was real I'm sure of it. Looking at her again i asked, "How are you here?"

She ignored my question and got up, informing me she was going to go shower. I walked her walk up the stairs and to the bathroom. I didnt know what to do. I was in awe. So I followed her up to the bathroom and i got myself undressed. I got in with her and she was still here, touching me. Kissing me. Pleasing me. I didn't care how or why but I focused on being with her. We had gone to bed shortly after the shower but she was gone when i awoke.

I searched the house up and down, finding a note on the counter saying she had gone into work. So meanwhile she was there, i hurried my way to her mothers.

"Snow!" I smiled, walking into the house. "Emmas back." I say confidently with a smile plastered on my face. The older woman was still hurt from her daughters passing just a month ago.

"Regina what are you talking about?" She asked me extremely confused. "She's gone Regina. We saw her. We saw them bury her."

I shook my head vigorously. "Let me show you." I dragged her to the sheriffs station where David was working. "David where's Emma?" I asked him.

Snow shook her head and furrowed her brows at me and then David. The sheriff looked at me like I was crazy. "She's.. dead..? You know that."

"No no she came back yesterday. She came home.. to me. She said she went to work today. She should be here." I walked over to her empty desk, looking through it. "She must've left a note or something."

"Gina." Snow says softly, tears in her eyes. She comes up to me and places a hand on my arm. Emma calls me that. I love it when she does too. "She's gone."

"No. She's not. I don't know why she didn't come to you guys earlier. Maybe she's back at home already?" I grabbed my keys and started fo leave but David grabbed me.

"Let's take you home for some rest. Henry comes home from Seattle today with his family. You need to be rested. Have you been drinking?" He looked at me seriously.

I shook my head "No. I can't drink with my anti depressants.. you know that. You're the one who insisted I start taking them!" I pushed him off of me and rolled my eyes. "I will find my own way home!Henry will believe me!"
