The Son Of Alice || A Once Upon A Time Story

Contents Under Pressure

Elizabeth looked left. I was curious about what she was looking at so I turned too. It was Mackenzie, and I was so relieved! I smiled and ran to her. "What happened?! How are you here?" I asked her. She clenched her teeth "Well. I followed you just in case, to make sure you didn't get hurt, but I can see you had a friend to help you. I got kidnapped and saved myself." She said.

I was confused on why Kenzie was acting out "I'm glad you're okay but why are you so angry?" I asked "Do you really need to ask Alexander?" Kenzie said bitterly and raising her voice. "A-Alexander..." someone said from behind her. I looked over my girlfriend's shoulder and shut everything else out. All was quiet in my mind. I don't know why and I don't know how but I recognized the couple standing not far behind her.

I had a sudden memory from a very long time ago, these were my parents. My eyes lit up, and I ran into their embrace. "Mother, father, is it really you?" I said. My mom, Alice, kissed me on the head and said "It is, sweetheart." I hugged my parents. "So much happened over my whole life, I've been to Neverland twice, Aunt Carol passed away and her home burned down, I went to a land call Storybrooke---and which we must return to immediately! Also, I've met my true love..." I told them.

"Oh?" My father said and made a funny face. "Oh, Kingsleigh men are such players!" My mother laughed. I smiled and walked them to Kenzie. "Mackenzie?" I called and she turned around after speaking with Beth. She smiled as I said "Mom, dad, this is my girlfriend... Mackenzie." "She helped us out and saved us, thank you Mackenzie." My mother said.

"Yeah. This is a happy reunion and all but Emma and Petra are probably wondering where we are so we should probably get going." Kenzie seemed anxious to leave. She stormed off in the right direction, I ran towards her "Kenzie!" I called. "Thank you for saving my parents." I told her once I caught up. "No problem." She said "By the way you look nice in that dress, so beautiful." I told her. "Where are Mia and the other girl, whatever her name was?" Kenzie replied, eager to change the subject.

"Oh, you mean Beth. They went towards a small town East of Jafar's castle. To find homes probably. My parents are coming with us too." I replied. "That's nice." My girlfriend said rudely. Though I didn't want to admit it, she was being a complete bitch. Anger was boiling inside me as we entered the city. "Is something wrong?" I decided to ask.

She turned around and snapped at me. "Yes. Because you said you needed to come here alone. You said 'It's personal.' and when I find you, some girl is talking to you and kissing you in the cheek and calling you cutie. So yes something is wrong. Just leave me alone for now." "But Kenz- I" "No! I don't want to hear it." She said. Now I was pissed off, it wasn't my fault Beth kissed my cheek and called me cutie.

Our love was beginning to fade, contents were under pressure and I couldn't stop it. Maybe I needed a break from her when we got back because I didn't want to celebrate my birthday with her or anyone else other than my parents. I just glared at her the whole walk back to Emma, Petra and Summer. As Kenzie hugged Emma, Petra asked "What did you two do?" "Well, I found the three ingredients and got into some trouble on the way and I found Mackenzie and my parents." I replied.

"What happened between the two of you?" Petra asked as Kenzie stopped hugging her sister. "Nothing important. Let's just get home. We have more people to get to Storybrooke." She said. I glared at her once more. "I have a bean, I got from Marvello's shop, so we can leave right now." I announced. "Then let's go." Summer suggested.

"Where exactly are we going?" My father questioned. "We will explain later, just make sure we have everything and jump into the portal." I said and threw the magic bean. Summer went first then my parents second. Emma went then Petra. My girlfriend and I were last. I tried to hold her hand in attempt to keep our love alive, but she turned away and went through the portal alone. That's it, Mackenzie and I are done with this relationship.
