Timeless Love | OUAT

Chapter 15

"Zoë? ZOË???" Barry screamed at her, shaking her soulless body. Tears were starting to appear, "No you weren't supposed to die. Not you. Anyone but you. Please Zoë, come back to me." His voice was breaking up, his hands were shaking, his heart was pumping. Hook walked towards Zoë, "She's dead mate, I'm sorry." He tried so hard to fight the tears, instead he looked away and closed his eyes as tight as possible. Regina was upset, she had only known this girl for five minutes and she's already sacrificed herself. "The curse." Rumple said, "Its broken." Barry stood up, "It worked, but how?" Rumple turned around, "Hook spent his years in Neverland, a place which uses magic to keep you young. Him and Zoë were close on the ship, so it worked." Barry smiled, "You did it Zoë," he knelt towards her, "We did it."

Dear diary
When I got back to school (thanks to Regina) I had to explain to the school why he was missing for 15 minutes and where Zoë went. We covered up her death by saying she ran away from home, somewhere where she can be someone better. I on the other hand never got to tell Zoë that I loved her, but I think she knew about it long before. David found out about Zoë being in town, and now he's missing. He's probably just trying to find a way to resurrect her. Hook has just managed to stop the night terrors of Zoë, but he still experiences anxiety attacks. Good thing he has Emma to keep him calm. Rumple just continued to go along his evil plan of God knows what. I really miss Zoë, I just wished she could read this that's all.

Zoë smiled from behind the bench, she placed her hand on his shoulder. "I love you too Barry. I just wished you could see me." Her ghostly self stayed put as a tear rolled down her cheek,
"I'll be here if you need me. Always and forever."
