The Voice Of Neverland

Chapter 4:

I walked out of his room and down the stairs. Emma was sitting with Regina, drinking apple cider. "Can I come down now?" I asked Regina. "Yes dear." She said. I walked downstairs and sat on the couch. "Soo... What's going on?" I asked, breaking the uncomfortable silence. "Miss Swan here was just asking me if she could see you and Henry once in a while." Regina said. "I don't see why not." I said. "I just don't think it's best." Regina said. "Why not?" I asked. "She's our birth mother! Without her we wouldn't be here! We have a right to get to know each other!" I shouted. "I've raised you two for fourteen years while your birth mother was off doing god knows what instead of taking care of her own children. I don't see why now would be any different? And now because now the hard part of raising you is done with and she was just too lazy to do it she gets to come into your lives? I don't think so. How selfish of you to even suggest that. If you want to go with this woman, knock yourself out but Henry needs to stay here. Clearly you don't care about him enough to see that." Regina argued. "I'm fairly certain there was a valid reason she had to give us up! I'm not asking for myself mom! I'm asking for Henry! Because you've been ignoring him lately and he feels unloved and lonely which is precisely the reason he went and got Emma in the first place! I don't care who I have to stay with or who is my legal guardian all I care about is Henry! He is the most important thing to me in this world! You of all people should know that." I said, tears flooding my vision.

"You don't get it Elena." Regina said. "No, you don't get it! You're trying to tell me that I don't care about Henry when I'd take a bullet for him?! All I care about is him!" I said. Then I turned on my heel and ran up the stairs, tears streaming down my face.
