When It Comes To You (I Have A Weak Heart) | MayorSwanQueen

Epilogue

“It’s snowing! Come on! Come on! Come on!”

“Wait! Hold up, little man! We don't want you slipping! Our mom is going to kill me!”

“Come on, Emmy!”

“Neal!”

Regina watched her blonde lover who’s busy going after her little brother with an amused smile as she helped Snow White load up the dishwasher. They just finished having a Christmas breakfast on the mayoral mansion and the Charming boy sprinted from his seat then out of the house, his big sister not far behind him.

Snow winced when Neal suddenly stopped in his tracks only to turn around and ran towards her big sister. Emma, not expecting the move, immediately stop running only for her to slip down the snow-covered grass. She was about to get up when she felt a small body collided with hers, making her land on her back in the blanket of snow.

“Jesus, kid! Are you sure you're only three years old? You're really heavy,” Emma grunted with a laugh.

“He's been excited to play in the snow,” Snow White said as she looked at Regina. “I promised to let him play after breakfast.”

Regina waved the woman's explanation off. “It seems Emma was not bothered by it so let them be. And it’s a great way for them to bond. Be happy Emma decided to do some effort to bond with her brother. We both know it’s not that easy for her.”

Snow nodded as she dried her hands with a paper towel. “I'm glad. Ever since that whole fiasco with Hook she never came to us. I'm happy she's bonding with Neal.” She caressed her small baby bump. “I also wish she will do the same when this little one come out.”

“One step at a time, Snow,” she said to the pixie haired woman with a small smile. “You have plenty of time.”

“Alright, children! Come inside! It’s time to open your presents!” the Queen hollered from the entrance of the sliding door that leads to the backyard.

Once everyone was inside the den it was filled with noise from the chatter of the adults and the sounds of wrapping paper being ripped as the kids open up their presents.

From her seat, Emma couldn't stop the wide smile from forming on her lips as she glanced around the scene in front of her. She wouldn't have this if she continued to be with someone who only loves the idea of being her true love. Even though she has been through so much these past few weeks, she wouldn't have it any other way. She and her parents are starting to bond again, albeit in a glacial pace, Henry has been nothing but loving and supportive even though sometimes he’s being a little shit, and most of all she's quite happy and content with the women she loves more than anything.

All in all, for Emma Swan, life is good. Better even. So she's going to cherish it for as long as she lives. Because she knows, deep inside, she deserves this, and no one is going to take that away from her.
