I'm still surprised that Emma agrees to this.
She seemed taken aback by meeting Henry but it's probably because she gave him up, it's not exactly a great
conversation starter."What happened in there?" Nolan asks.
"You took forever," Elijah chimes in. "I'm impatient."
"It took a bit of convincing to get Emma to talk to him," I tell my friends. "I think she was a bit startled."
"I would be too if I abandoned my kid and they showed up at my door randomly." Elijah says.
"The woman has trust issues," I say. "She was talking about how her ability to detect lies is a superpower."
"Are we sure we can trust Henry with her?" Nolan says.
"Yeah she seems crazy." Elijah says.
"Seriously," I say looking at Elijah. "Henry will be fine, she is his birth mother, the only problem with her is that she didn't seem too excited to see him."
"Did you get her phone number?" Nolan asks.
"Yeah," I say, holding up my phone. "If we're worried about Henry we can phone him and he can contact us."
"It's a four hour drive from Boston to Maine," Elijah says. "She must have warmed up to him somewhat to do the drive."
"She offered to take us too," I tell him. "I told her we already had a ride but I wanted Henry to spend time with her."
"How do you think your mom is going to react when you bring back Henry's birth mother?" Nolan asks.
"Not great," I say as I rub the back off my neck. "She is going to freak out."
"You did a good thing, Bella." Nolan says turning to look at me for a second. "Henry looked happy when he walked out of the apartment building."
"He was," I tell him. "I've not seem this happy in a while."
"He's a great kid." Nolan says.
"Great imagination too," Elijah says. "He should be a writer when he's older."
"My mom would never let him," I tell him. "Even when we're in our thirty's she's still going to tell us what to do."
"We need to move out of this town first chance we get." Elijah says.
"Don't you find it weird that we're the only ones that ever leave town." Nolan says.
"Everything about this town is weird," I say to him. "I've learned to not question it."

After a long car ride of Elijah talking my ear off about all the new party's we can go to we finally arrive back in storybrooke."Welcome back to hell." Elijah says as he looks at the storybrooke sign.
Emma and Henry are following behind us, even if Emma doesn't speak to him, Henry will enough for the both of them.
We're almost home when I turn around and see that Emma is out of the car and is talking to Dr hopper.
I tell Nolan to stop the car and go out to check on them. By the time I walk over to them Dr Hopper is walking away.
"Is everything alright?" I ask Emma.
"Your brother is trying to convince me to go a different way." She tells me, it's hard not to see the pissed off look on her face.
"Henry's not too happy with our mother right now," I tell her. "Henry just let her take you home."
He doesn't look happy with me but he gets back into Emma's car.
