We were making camp for a while when I noticed Mary Margret sitting alone. I walked up to her and sat next to her. 

"What are you doing?" I ask her.

"Uh, just thinking." She replies. 

"Come on. Mulan has some ideas where Cora might be hiding." I say. I was about to get up when she grabbed my hand. 

"Look, I'm sorry about what happened when you were younger. I was so determined to stop Regina that I didn't bother thinking that my daughter needed me more. Can you ever forgive me?" She says sweetly. I thought about it for a few seconds and realized that it wasn't all her fault but still she left me alone. 

"To be honest, I have no idea. I know I will forgive you one day but I have no idea how long that is going to take. Let's just go see what Mulan says about Cora." I say and I walk off.

Aurora has been sleeping for a while now. Kinda wish I could sleep that long. Out of nowhere, she starts screaming. Sleeping Beauty woke up then.

"Snow! Snow!" She yells.

"Hey. I'm here. It's okay, it's okay. It was just another nightmare." She replies as she comes over to her and sits by her side.

"No, this time was different. There was a little boy. He... He put out the fire. He talked to me." A boy? Strange.

"A little boy?" Mary Margaret asked.

"What'd he say?" Emma asked.

"He said... He said his name was Henry." Aurora replied still shaken up by the nightmare. I looked at Emma and saw the worry on her face. This can't be good.

We sat in the woods when Emma took a picture of Henry from her wallet and showed it to Aurora.

"The boy you saw in your dream – is that him?" She asked hoping it was him.

"Yes. That's Henry." She replied. I sigh in relief. At least something is going well but at the same time, it's getting worse.

"That's impossible. It was a dream. How could you dream of my son?" Emma asks in worry.

"I have no idea."

"Maybe it wasn't a dream." Mary Margret speaks up.

"What?" I ask.

"That room... I've been there." Room? What are you on about?

"When I told you about it, you didn't say anything," Aurora says hurt.

"You were terrified. I didn't want to make things worse by telling you I thought it might be real." Mary Margret says trying to calm her down.

"A room in a dream is real?" Mulan asks.

"The sleeping curse. It has to be. I went through it, Aurora went through it..." Mary Margaret starts saying.

"Henry's been through it because I wouldn't believe him." Emma finished off with sadness.

"Emma..." Mary Margret says in sadness. 

"What else did you lie about?" Aurora asked

"I was... I wasn't lying. I was protecting you." Mary Margret replied.

"What did he say – Henry? In the... In the dream?" I asked. 

"He just said his name. He... And then, I woke up, and... It was over." Aurora replied.

"Emma. It's going to be okay." Mary Margret said looking at her.

"We are so far from okay," Emma said looking down.
