Memories [OUAT/Helsa]

Elsa

Storybrooke, Maine
Present Day

"What was the last thing that you remembered?"

Dark brows furrowed as the Ice Queen tried to recall any sort of memory remained in her mind. "The day after Anna's wedding..." Elsa murmured as she kept digging deeper into her own mind. "Actually, only the morning."

The blonde Sheriff leaned back against the backrest of the chair, arms crossed over her chest as she listened to her friend. "Only the morning? What happened after that?"

"I don't know, it just... A blank." The Queen of Arendelle bit down onto het bottom lip, feeling even more upset to herself because how could she have no memory of what has happened in her life? Not the big pictures let alone the details. "Why would anyone took my memories? I don't even know I'm pregnant until that Doctor told me about it, it's not my body anymore."

The frustration was clear in Elsa's eyes, even without seeing the falling snow around them, and it was some sort of a sign for the blonde to speak up. "Look, we'll figure this out, the whole thing, I promise. Just... Calm down, okay?" She meant it with her promise, but it was also to keep her friend's emotion in check, she did not need for the other blonde to be overly stressed out.

But it seemed that Elsa was far too frustrated to even try and contribute. "Calm down? I can't 'calm down', Emma! I'm carrying someone else's baby that I don't even know who! What makes you think that I can calm down?!"

"Because don't you care about the baby?" At this point Emma knew the only way to talk to her friend was through logic, she has been seeing the Ice Queen long enough to know at least a little part of her personality to know. "Yes, you have lost your memories and have no idea who the Father is, but still you're the Mother. That child is a part of you, whether you realize it or not. Stress will do nothing but harm your child, is that what you want, huh Elsa?"

The Queen of Arendelle might have been upset earlier, but the blonde's words have thankfully brought her back to her right mind. She might forgot who the Father was, but this child grew inside of her. It was, just as Emma said, a part of her. "Of course not..." the platinum blonde haired woman replied in a hushed murmur. "I don't want anything bad to happen to the baby."

"Then try to calm yourself down, alright?" The Sheriff said, voice has returned back to it's soft tone. "Besides, looking at the golden ring around your finger I guess you're already married... Perhaps to the man that you love. That's not bad, you know."

Elsa's left hand lifted up automatically, eyes looking at the glinting golden band that was indeed wrapped around her ring finger, a comfirmation that she was already someone's wife, thus getting rid of her fear of being pregnant outside of marriage. "I think you're right, I should have think for the best instead of the worst."

"I heard our friend Elsa came back here to Storybrooke."

The Sheriff nodded, not looking to the direction of her Father as she drank the water from her glass. Small town means words travel fast, especially when the townspeople have known each other long before they had been cursed to live in a modern world far different from their place in the Enchanted Forest. "She suddenly appeared in the middle of the street, unconscious, fortunately Leroy was kind enough to bring her to the Hospital."

"He's grumpy but he's a good guy." Mary Margaret defended, baby Neal has just fallen asleep in her arms. "Anyway, how is she?"

"In a state of shock, to put it simply." Emma sighed, putting her glass down on the counter. "She lost the memory of what happened back in Arendelle from the day after Anna's marriage. Not a single memory, not even the fact that she's pregnant."

"W-what?"

"Elsa's... Pregnant?"

"Right, you guys didn't know..." The blonde had almost slapped her own forehead due to her tired mind. The day has been a long one, with her spending the whole afternoon sitting beside her friend in the Hospital and talked even when Elsa told her that she could leave if she wanted to. "But yea, Elsa's having a baby. Whale said she's probably just entered her second trimester but he can't be sure until he did a proper ultrasound."

"Wow, that's a big news." The short black haired mother said as she looked toward her husband. "I could imagine how surprised she is when she finds out..."

"But it's not like when you and the othets returned and you're pregnant with Neal." Emma said, "You know who the Father is, Elsa doesn't. She doesn't remember anything and it terrifies her."

"Luckily she's not a complete stranger to this town and she has you as a friend." David said, a supportive smile on his face. "So... Besides a baby, is there something else that we should worry about?"

"There is one... I don't know if it's just me but Elsa seems like she is five years older than she is supposed to be."
