Rotten Souls

part 9

"hey kiddo! How was school?" Emma asked Henry so she would change the subject. Regina gave all her attention on Henry. He took off his earphones and stared at Regina firstly and then Emma. He raised his eyebrow.

"What happened to you forehead?"
Henry asked and started getting worried. Regina smiled broadly at Henry to make his insecurities go away.
"It's fine Henry. I had an accident."

She told him and Henry seemed to actually believe that. He sat on the chair next to Regina and Emma repeated her former question.
"How was school Henry?"
Henry made a gremance of annoyance and just nodded to Emma that everything was fine.

Emma served him a plate of lasagna and then gave Regina her plate. She sat across them on the table and started eating.
"Tried my best to cook this food, so in case it's not good try to cook it better than me."

She blinked to Regina and took a bite.
Regina tastes the food and smiled.
"Even a five year old can cook better."
The three of them started laughing and Henry pushed his plate away and opened his phone.

"I'm ordering pizza. What kind you guys want?"
"Henry I've told you a thousands of times that I don't want you to eat unhealthy food."

Regina raised a little her voice and stared at Henry with irritation.
"do you prefer eating mum's raw Lasagna? They taste like mud."
Henry commented and Emma pretended to she was punching him while laughing.

"Fine. Just for today. Don't get used to it." Regina said because after all she was way too hungry too cook another food. Henry ordered two barbeque pizzas and turned to his brunette mother.

"How was the doctor appointment?"
Regina almost drowned with the hot Choco she was tasting at the moment and started coughing. Emma held Henry's hand and rubbed his hair. She stared at Regina. Regina's look was worried. Was she really ready to tell him? Emma thought.

Then Regina fixed her hair and held Henry's left hand. "Henry I'm pregnant."
When Henry heard those words he imidiately stood up and kicked the chair he was sitting on. "Are you crazy mum? Why would you have a kid with that man?"

Regina looked at Emma thinking if her blonde sheriff had actually told henry the truth about Daniel. Emma widened her eyes and tried to calm Henry down.
"Kid I told you they were trying for a baby for a year now. You should be happy about mum."

"Cut the crap mum!" Henry said and run upstairs. The next thing they heard was the door of his bedroom shutting down loudly. Regina exhaled deeply. One thing she knew for sure after all those years raising Henry  was that there's no point going after him to make him feel better.

He would talk to her when he would decide. But that doesn't mean she wouldn't try to confront her son. She tapped Emma's shoulder and smiled at her.
"I can handle this."

Emma smiled broadly and sat back on her chair..Regina grabbed her hot cocoa and headed to Henry's room. She knocked the door and called his name with her soft voice.

Henry murmured angrily. "Don't wanna talk to you."
"Honey please. If something bothered you we can talk about it."Regina said and tried to open the door but it was locked. She new it was a bad idea to let Henry have a lock on his door. It would definitely freak her out when he would start bring girls in the house.

She knocked again and called his name again .
"No we can't! You won't even let me get to know you mum."
"What are you talking about? Henry please open the door. If you feel like you'll be forgotten when the baby comes you're wrong. I would never do that!"

Suddenly opened the door broadly and Regina almost fell down as she had placed all of her weight on the door. Henry rubbed his bloodshot eyes and wiped away the tears. Regina's lips trumbled and she imidiately pulled him closer for a hug
