The Queen of Broken Hearts

Healing

The Hatters were having a family day in Regina's castle and Grace was currently hanging upside down off of Kitty and Jefferson's bed with Jack beside her as they sing the same song over and over again to piss off Jefferson "WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A DRUKEN SAILOR! WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A DRUNKEN SAILOR! WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A DRUNKEN SAILOR! EARLY IN THE MORNING!" The two kids sing as loudly as they can and Jefferson hits his head off of a book he was holding whilst Kitty walks into the room with Regina behind her cradling Anidori. "What in the whiskers is going on here?" She asks and Jefferson looks up at her desperately "I'm going to kill your father for teaching them sea shantys... He'll have more than a hook for a hand when im through with him." Jefferson says and Regina starts laughing.

"Can't handle a singsong hatboy?" Regina asks Jefferson who glares up at her "You know what? For that comment you lose baby privilages." He says taking Anidori off of her and he walks over to the balcony cradling Anidori as the two children who are still hanging upside down are just laughing, not even particularly at anything but they are giggling their heads off. "I want to learn more songs from Grandpa!" Grcae giggles and Jefferson turns immediately "NO!" He cuts her off and it sets the two kids into another round of laughter "Stop terrorising your father you two." Kitty says as Regina just smirks crossing her arms "Are we still going for a walk in the garden tomorrow?" Grace asks Regina who nods her head, Regina had become a rather close part of their family since coming back to the enchanted forest and Kitty couldn't have been happier saying her goodbyes and leaving the family alone.

The Hatters had decided to go to the market in town as a family and Jefferson was holding Anidori in one arm as he held Kitty's hand with the other. Grace and Jack were walking ahead together. Grace was really missing Hook, they had a very close bond and Kitty didn't think that she would ever understand it. Jack was quite close with Hook as well, he was one of the men that Jack looked up to along with Jefferson and Neal. The two children had been practicing their magic a lot more with Kitty and they both were finally starting to feel confident with their abilities. Jack had become much better at controlling his snow abilities so now when he got upset nothing was at risk of being frozen. Grace was able to use her magic to do things but she also used it to help people, both children were blessed with light magic.

Kitty had been thinking about Zelena and what her life must've been like if she had gone to such lengths to change time and wipe out half of a bloodline to change her life. She wished that she could speak with her dad, she had no idea if her brother was alive or dead... because she only saw him being... absorbed... by their father. She feels like everything had changed in such a small amount of time. Everything felt like it was upside down. She was worried for her family because she had three children of her own to look after and she was keeping an eye on Christopher Robin as well, and his charming furry friends, much to Jefferson's annoyance because he was still protective over Grace anytime the boy was around. Jefferson just didn't want his wife to over do herself because he knew that her magic was changing and not for the better.

"This is giving me deja vu, walking through the market with you and Grace only this time we have the whole family." Jefferson says and Kitty smiles "You know sometimes I miss when life was that simple... but I wouldn't trade it for anything because now we have an even bigger family than we ever knew." Kitty says and Jefferson smiles down at her squeezing her hand in his own. "Everything will be okay, we'll save Neal and we'll save your father... I swear to you." Jefferson says and Kitty nods leaning her head on Jefferson's arm as Jack and Grace were having a look at one of the carts.

That night Jefferson and Kitty tucked in Grace and Jack into their beds before they headed to their own room where Anidori was sleeping soundly in her crib at the bottom of their bed, Anidori did have a nursery but they didn't feel happy leaving her in there alone especially when the wicked witch was hanging around. She typically slept through the whole night and never really woke up. She used to when she was first born because she was hungry but now she would sleep the full night with occassional little snores leaving her which actually reassured Jefferson and Kitty that the girl was okay.
