Emma's POV

Neal threw his arm around me, and I laughed. We started heading in the same direction my parents and Hook went. Regina was there. "They found me," she answered simply as I had a confused look on my face. We decided to make camp there. We started a fire and we all sat around it on logs. We were discussing how to get off the island that way we could get Henry, and leave Neverland. Neal and I were sitting together. I was looking down at my hands. Neal looked at my hands, and saw I was staring at them. He laced our fingers together, and said, "Hey, we're going to find our son." He read my mind. I was thinking about Henry. I looked into his eyes, and smiled. He pulled me into him and kissed the top of my head, and I closed my eyes. I then rested my head on his shoulder. He leaned his head onto mine. He had an arm around my waist. Hook told Neal, "We found that coconut in your hut. Can you read it?" "Yeah, I can read it," he answered not taking his head off mine. He gave me a peck on the head and then sat upright, my head still on his shoulder. "How did you get on this island?" my father asked Neal. "Pan's shadow," he simply replied. "Same way I got off." "You left using Pan's shadow?" I asked taking my head off his shoulder to look at him. He looked at me and nodded. "That's the same way we're going to get off this cursed island." "Well, how do we catch the bloody demon?" Hook asked. "The coconut," Neal answered. We were all looking at him. He stood up, holding my hand. "We leave in the morning," he said and I stood up. He let go of my hand and walked toward a tent. I was tired. I wanted to sleep.  Neal was sitting by a tent. I looked at him. Should I do it? I thought to myself. I ultimately decided I would. I went and sat next to Neal. He looked up at me and smiled. I smiled back at him and asked, "Can I sleep here?" His smile grew larger until he couldn't smile any larger. "Is that a yes?" I asked. He tackled me to the floor, pinned me to the ground, and kissed me. He broke the kiss and asked, " What do you think?" He was still smiling uncontrollably. He kissed me again and we sat up. We broke, and he pushed my hair back behind my ear. He was still smiling like a lunatic. I smiled at his goofiness. We laid down and he put his arm on my hip. I took his arm and wrapped it around me. He moved closer to me. After we got Henry, we could go home. We could be  family, for real this time. I thought about it. Home. Then I realized something. This, right now, what I'm feeling with Neal, this is my home. He's my home. It's like what he told me on our first date. He said, "That's how you know you really got a home. When you leave, there's just this feeling that you just can't shake. When you leave, you just miss it." I would never forget that. When he left, I missed him so much. When he fell through the portal, I told him I loved him, and he said he felt the same. Then he fell through the portal, and I missed him so much. More than anything, I missed him. Just like that he was gone. But, he was okay the whole time. He was looking for me. Just moments ago, when I found him, I knew, he was my home. He was my everything.
