014.    collecting evidence

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━  

APHRODITE AND EMMA WERE against Emma's police car at the castle where Henry normally meets them at. The two were waiting for him when the boy suddenly rode up on his bike.

"Hey, kid." Emma smiled as Henry rode right past them.

"Nice to see you, too!" Aphrodite chuckled as they followed the boy over to the castle.

"The storm!" Henry yelled as he got off his bike and ran over to the very damaged castle.

Emma folded her arms, "It's okay, we can fix it! I'll talk to Marco." She told him, referring to the castle.

Henry nodded and he started to dig the ground up, "I think it's still here!"

"What you looking for?" Asked Aphrodite.

"My book!"

Aphrodite raised an eyebrow, "Why'd you bury it here?"

"So my mom doesn't find it," Henry continued to dig. "The first place the Evil Queen would look in under my matress."

Emma crouched besides him, "How about leaving it with me?"

"That's the second place." Henry opened the metal box to find his storybook still inside as he sighed in relief.

"Leave in in my office then?" 

"Third place." Henry said as he looked at her before he closed the box and began to rebury it.

Emma stood up as Regina pulled up in her car and raced over to them, "Henry? Henry! I've been looking for you everywhere! You know you have a session with Dr Hart this morning," She looked over at the two blondes. "I should of known he would be with you. Henry, car! Now."

"You know I was going to take him to my office now, right?" Aphrodite told the brunette.

"How was I meant to know?" Regina scoffed before she looked at the destroyed castle in disgust, "You let him play here?"

"The storm hit it pretty hard, but we can fix it." Emma told the Mayor.

"Well, can you fix a cracked cranium," Regina looked at her. "Cause that's what you'll have on your hands if one of these boards collapses on his weight. You aren't thinking about Henry or his safety, just ways around me. Don't let your feelings cloud your judgements, people can get hurt."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Emma asked.

"You're the Sheriff now, it's time to be responsible."

Emma scoffed, "I am responsible."

Regina ignored her and looked over at the therapist, "You want a lift?"

Aphrodite glanced between Emma and Regina before she nodded, "Sure, I'll see you later then, Em!" She waved goodbye before she headed over to Regina's car.
