Finding You Always

Home Again

Chapter 185: Home Again

As they enjoyed breakfast with their children, extended family, and new friends, Snow and David regaled just a bit of their lives to newcomers, Joe and Frankie, with the help of the book, allowing them to page through it, as they told the tales.

"So...the tabloids and their story about you thinking you're Snow White and Prince Charming?" Joe asked.

"It's true...just not like it happened in any of the movies," David replied.

"Wow...so that rainbow light we saw..." Frankie said, as he looked at the illustration of Snow in a glass coffin and David arriving on horseback.

"That was the breaking of the curse with true love's kiss. This time, it was our children that saved us," she said fondly.

"This is something...and all this happened?" Joe asked, as he flipped through the book.

"All of it...our lives are never boring, that's for sure," David joked.

"But it's nothing like the Disney version," Snow reiterated.

"Yeah, no singing at a wishing well. She hit me a rock," David complained.

"You tackled me," she reminded.

"Because you stole my mother's ring," he reminded in return.

"And then you trapped me in a net," she retorted. He smirked and pointed to chin.

"Exhibit A. Scar...still there after almost forty years," he presented to them.

"Oh please...you love your scar just as much as me," she cooed, as she kissed him. He kissed her back.

"When you're right, you're right," he agreed, as they kissed again. Emma rolled her eyes.

"Here we go..." Leo complained.

"Guys...we're eating," Emma whined. Their lips parted and they shared a smile.

"I take it they do this a lot?" Frankie asked in amusement.

"Oh, you have no idea," Summer replied.

"So...how did you go from armed robbery to true love?" Joe asked. They smiled.

"Well...I sort of sold the ring to some trolls and we teamed up to get it back with the promise that he could have the ring and I could have the rest of the jewels to make my escape from the Kingdom," Snow explained.

"He saved me from some Black Knights," she added.

"And she saved me from the Trolls. And I got my ring back," he stated.

"So you were together after that?" Frankie asked. He chuckled.

"Not even close. She tried on my mother's ring and I fell in love. But we parted ways," he replied.

"He was trapped in an arranged marriage and I was still wanted. But we couldn't get each other out of our heads," she confessed.

"Oh...then you broke off your engagement," Frankie said, as he flipped ahead.

"Yes, but only after the evil King George threatened to kill Charming if I didn't lie to him and tell him I didn't love him," Snow replied.

"Oh..." Frankie said in disappointment.

"Then by the time I went on the run after abandoning the engagement, Snow had taken a potion to forget me, because she thought we could never be together," he added.

"Mmm...fortunately, he found me and stopped me from going down a dark path. Without love in my heart, I became a dark version of myself. But true love's kiss restored my memories," she said, smiling at him.
