ALWAYS ⇢ HENRY MILLS [1]

Brooke's POV

I then found myself back in
Storybrooke. I looked around in search for Henry when I heard him call out my name. I spun around and saw Henry running towards me from Mr. Gold's Pawnshop. I hugged him tightly, thankful he was here until he pulled away and stared at something over my shoulder. I turned around and saw Regina lying on the floor with Emma beside her, gently shaking her. I looked back at Henry and muttered. "Oh no."
Henry took hold of my hand and we ran towards Regina.
"Mum!" he shouted.
He let go of my hand and knelt down beside her.
I stood there in silence watching Emma and Henry try to wake her, not knowing what to do or say. I just watched them. I watched Emma gently shake him and Henry call out her name until they both fell silent as her eyelids flickered. I slowly knelt down next to Henry and watched her eyes shoot open. Regina took deep breaths and looked either side of her. "Emma! Henry!" she exclaimed. She them saw me. "Brooke!"
I smiled and laughed lightly. "Regina. Thank God you're alive"
She sat up and opened her arms for Emma and Henry who willingly hugged her. I watched them hug with a smile plastered on my face. Regina's hand waved at me, signally to join the hug. I shuffled over to them on my knees and joined the hug and shut my eyes.

Emma then pulled away not long after and seemed to stare at nothing.
"What is it?" Regina asked, standing up and brushing herself down.
"Hook" Emma said, just loud enough for us to hear.
Before any of us could speak she ran towards her parents' house and Regina followed. I was about to follow but Henry took hold of my arm. "Hold on," he said.
"What is it?" I asked.
Henry then smashed his lips against mine. I took a step closer and wrapped my arms around his neck. I felt his arms around my waist and I smiled throughout the kiss. I moved one of my hands towards his brown hair and started to gently caress it.

The kiss was long and passionate. When Henry pulled away he spoke before I could ask what was that for.
"It's been a while" he smiled.
I chuckled and locked my eyes with his. "It has"
After a small pause he spoke again. "I'm glad we're back"
"Me too" I answered.

He then suddenly removed his arms from my waist and looked around.
"What is it?" I asked.
"I need to see someone" he replied.
I titled my head slightly with confusion. "Who?"
"Follow me."
