Never Grow Up

Not A Big Fan Of Apples

Emma's pov

I was running away. It want my fault she caught me now I'm stuck here. "What are you making?" I asked
"My famous Apple Cobbler." She says not even bothering to look at me

"Oh I don't eat apples." I said truthfully
"Now what kid didn't eat apples?" She said shaking her head disapprovingly
"Just not a big fan I guess." I said sighing

It was bothering me how she acted like she was the ruler I've me or something the way she looked down on my like she was a queen and I was a peasant?

I couldn't take it. After all the families I've been with and then turning me away at my slightest mistake im not going to let the women who I've barely know for an hour look at me like I'm an less of a person than she is.

"So just a quick question when are you going to stop looking at me like that?" I asked
"Like What?" She scoffed
"Like I'm something you just scrubbed off the bottom of your shoe." I spat angrily

Her face stayed hardened like a rock but her eyes seemed to lick with sadness. "Miss. Swan you are just new to me that's all I just need time to get used to my new-" I cut her off sharply

"Daughter is that what you where going to say?" I barked
"I was going to say friend." She corrected
"Oh and another thing I heard you talking to Mrs.Carson about how you expected me to be a baby!" I shouted tears threatening to spill

"It was just a mix up in age that's all." She assured reluctantly trying to place her hand on my shoulder
I pushed her hand away.
"Oh so your trying to be my mother now well guess what Miss.Mills I'm not some 1 year old stupid girl you can pretend to pass off as yours because your not my mother and you will never be a mother to me!" I shouted letting tears slip out of my eyes not caring if she saw

I quickly grabbed my backpack and raced out the door. "Emma," she called I heard her heels click as she ran after me but I ran faster,"Emma!" I heard her faint voice call. I didn't turn around I just kept running until I hit someone.

"Hey watch where you're going!" I said picking up the persons papers hurriedly
"I'm so sorry it was all my fault." The person said and I looked up to see a tallish pale skin women with short black hair

I handed her the papers and looked and saw Ms.Mills approaching. "Hug me." I said
"What?" She asked
"Just do it I'll explain later." I said and thee my arms around her and she hugged back

The hug felt oddly comforting and warm but I shook it off as I see Miss.Mills rush past and going down another street.

"I'm sorry I was just hiding from someone." I say
"It's alright." She smiles a warm smile
"Oh where are my manners I'm Mary Margret." She says

"Emma." I say shaking her hand and she smiles again
"Nice to meet you Emma such a lovely name." She added
"Thanks I've gotta go." I said starting to sprint off but then I saw Regina who came running up

I quickly walk back to Mary and hide behind her praying for the best.
Knowing this wouldn't end well.
