A Story That Will Never Die {Henry Mills/OUAT} [2]

Enter the Dragon

***

I was with Mary-Margaret, David, and Emma as we walked up to the apartment. Everything was calm and nobody was freaking out. Until David brought up Regina's plan which shocked Emma. We walked through the door as Emma asked, "I'm sorry. Regina's doing what?"

David stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the blonde, "She's going undercover."

Emma was still not pleased, "With someone who could turn into a dragon? Are you out of your minds? Why didn't you call me?"

I raised my hand, "When exactly did this even happen?"

"There wasn't time. She told us the plan. That was it." David said, completely ignoring my question.

"You should've told me." Emma told him.

Mary-Margaret looked at her daughter with a questioning look, "Why? You really think you could've stopped her?"

"I could've helped. I was a bail-bonds person. Pretending to be someone else was part of my job." Emma explained to her.

I pointed at her, "You know, she is not wrong."

Mary-Margaret nodded, "I know that, but I really think Regina can take care of herself."

"I hope you're right," Emma looked between the two of them, "When is she supposed to check in?" They said nothing, "Mom? Dad?"

I crossed my arms and looked at them in concern, "Guys?"

"When is she supposed to check in?" Emma asked again.

They were silent for a moment when finally David replied, "About an hour ago." My heart dropped.

After what we talked about in the apartment, I decided to find Henry and hang out with him. I needed to get my mind off of what was happening at the current moment. I swear, I'm going to end up getting wrinkles with how much I worry. I don't know what I would do if something were to happen to Regina. She was like my family and I don't want her getting hurt. Anyways, Henry and I stood in the library looking at the book. We had it opened to the page with the book. Henry looked at it with a magnifying glass.

I sat down in a chair next to Henry, who was standing, and laughed a little, "What's with the magnifying glass, Detective?"

Henry looked down at me and smiled slightly, "I'm looking for clues," I nodded and hummed, showing that I understood. He looked back at the page and I looked around the room. I was getting slightly bored of just sitting here, but it was getting my mind off of everything. I let out a small sigh and Henry stopped. He looked back at me and I stared at him in confusion. He leaned down slightly and kissed me on the cheek. He leaned back and stared at me. I leaned forward and pecked him on the lips then I moved to lean back in the chair. "Why'd you stop?"

"You have to get back to work, Detective," I pointed at him and he continued to stare at me, "Maybe later," He still stared at me and I sighed, "Fine." I kissed him on the lips again, but this time for longer. I loved our kisses so much. It was like the world around me froze and my small life turned into an eternity. Henry went back to work.

Belle walked in, "Hey. So, um, is... Is that the page that August took out of the storybook? Did you find anything?"

"I think this door somehow has something to do with the author. I just have to figure out where it is." Henry looked a little stressed and I felt bad for him. He was trying really hard and everyone loved him for it. He always tried so hard and that's what I loved about him.

"You will. Here." Belle held out two donuts out to us. I took it and looked at her in confusion. When did she get these? I didn't seem them before.

Henry placed the donut in front of him and looked back at the page, "Come on, August. What are you trying to tell me?"
