 Set After the Curse, right when David/Charming and Henry move in Emma Swan woke up to the sound of high-pitched laughter, followed by her mother telling the boys in a hushed whisper, that they will wake Emma up. One of the problems with living in a loft, with three other people no less, is the utter lack of any kind of privacy. Emma stifles a yawn as she stretches in bed, for someone who claimed to have never been the roommate kind, she suddenly finds herself sharing not with one roommate, but three. Emma rolls over in bed, groaning when one of Henry's handheld games (a gift from his Gramps David…Charming) pokes her in the stomach.
It's been a week since she and Mary- well Snow had come back from the other realm and everyone was still adjusting to the now dynamics that were their lives. Currently, Henry was sharing a room with Emma, and she knew it was not ideal and she should get a place for both of them, but she didn't think Henry was ready for another change so quickly. If she's honest with herself she was not ready for that change yet. With Regina still out there and unpredictable, Emma preferred that, Henry was under the same roof as her parents. Her parents, that was another thing Emma was still adjusting too, while Emma and Snow had come to an understanding, or at least Emma has accepted her mother. Things with her father were still awkward at best.
Emma yawned, wondering if she could just bury herself under the blankets for a few more hours, but she had a kid now, she had responsibilities, and while her parents were more than happy to entertain Henry, she could't avoid her family forever. With a sigh she slipped out of the bed, her bare feet hitting the wooden floor of her loft bedroom, the wood creaking slightly. Days ago she was still just an orphan, now she had two parents who looked as young as her and her birth child’s crazy delusions had been true. Her life had not just been turned upside down, it had been completely flipped, tossed, and scrambled. Mary Margaret, her roommate was really Snow White, her mother…married to the Prince Charming.

David was teasing Henry while they were baking pancakes together. Showing Henry how he needed to turn over the pancakes by throwing them in the air and catch them up again with the frying pan. After Henry tried that for the first time and the pancake landed on Henry’s shoulder he couldn’t hold in a laugh as he watched Henry’s ‘oops’ face. The two of them were laughing about what happened until Mary Margaret told them to be quiet to not wake up Emma. “Oh come on, it’s almost 9 o’clock, it’s about time she gets up. Or she won’t have any pancakes left to eat for breakfast” he winked at Henry as he smiled back to him.
Charming put a new load of dough in the frying pan and started to turn a bit with it to spread the dough all over the surface of the frying pan before he put it on the stove. “Ready to turn over the next one buddy?” He let go of the handle of the frying pan and let Henry try it again. This time it was a success and the pancake landed straight into the frying pan after been thrown into the air. “Good job, you’re learning fast” he was actually proud of his grandson that he managed to do that. It took him a lot of practise before he could do it himself.
“Look honey, Henry actually managed to flip over the pancake. I think we have a full learned pancake maker here” he put the kitchen towel over his shoulder and looked proudly at his wife.
“Say, is Emma still sleeping? I mean, it’s not that she is Aurora or something…” he couldn’t understand how someone could be in bed for so long.

Snow watched them play and try to flip pancakes when Henry made his oops face she start to laugh with them only to cover her mouth sh sh them."She tired we didn't get a lot a sleep in Enchanted Forest, plus portal jumping takes a lot out of you." She watched Charming wink at him, rolling her eyes at the boys in the kitchen. Pain of seeing could have been strikes her hard in the heart."Let's put some a side for ...." the creak of the floor boards above them know Emma awake.
"Yes Henry your doing a fantastic job why don't start making your mom a plate sweet heart." Snow smiled a laughed "Well if my knowledge serve me right she is the only one of us who hasn't been under the sleeping curse , so I would be careful, Charming ." She blew him a kiss , as lifted a red.flannel cover leg up in the seat. "You know I was figuring maybe after breakfast we all could spend a family day together bonding and getting to know one another."
When the bedroom door opened "Good morning sweet heart do you want any coffee? There a fresh pot of you do and Henry and Charming made breakfast."

Emma pulled a hand through her hair as she strolled into the kitchen. ”Not anymore. Good morning David-” Emma took a small pause in her step before crossing the kitchen and puling out the coffee pot. Emma was struggling with how to handle all of this. Twenty-eight years without a family and now there was a mother, father and son crammed up in this tiny apartment. This was far too much to take in at the moment. There was a small warming sensation in her stomach as she observed how happy Henry was with David, or whatever he wanted to be called. Roughly Henry’s hair with a free hand, Emma poured the hot liquid into a mug. Standing on her tippy toes she searched through the cabinet for the sugar, loading the beverage with more sugar than it needed.
Emma turned her back towards the cabinets and leaned against the counter. These three were far too chipper for the morning. Mary-Snow’s greeting wasn’t lost on her as Emma finally pulled some of the last remains of sleep from the corner of her eyes. The term of endearment was still new for the blonde. As strange and bizarre as all of this was Henry had been right all along. Had she taken the boy seriously she would have noticed the similarities between herself and roommate. They had the same jaw line and cheekbones the more Emma thought about it. Hell, she even saw some of herself in David whenever he smiled and his dimples came out. Still the title of Savior was too much to carry. She didn’t even want Henry reminding her she was technically…a princess. Emma had never been the kind of girl to worked up over that particular fantasy.
She craned her neck over towards the oven top as she continued to watch the boys tackle pancakes. ”No chocolate?” she teased, well aware that Snow and Henry were use to a much healthier option of breakfast food. Growing up with Regina as a mother meant no junk food for Henry it seemed, even on the weekends. The blonde reached over towards the stash of blueberries and popped one in her mouth. Henry seemed to have no trouble taking all of this in. ”Aren’t there weekends in Fairy Tale land? You know days to sleep in?” she asked trying to lighten up her own mood. ”I’m new to all of this, but I think sleeping in is universal.” |

David looked at Emma when she arrived in the kitchen “Well look who we have her, sleeping beauty number 2” he said with a laugh. He continued baking pancakes together with Henry and smiled when Emma giving it a look. “oh you want some chocolate? If you want I can make chocolate pancakes as well, but then you have to hand over the cacao.”
Then he noticed the look on his wife’s face when he agreed on adding some cacao to the dough “Or maybe we can just keep the pancakes like this and add some sugar on top?” He hoped that that solution would be fine for his wife. He knew how she wanted the breakfast to be healthy.
He flipped over another pancake and put it on the pile of the others. “Here Henry, you can put them on the counter as well, you can already start eating if you want, before they are cold.” He leaned against the counter after he put the last bit of dough into the frying pan and waited for it to be ready to be flipped over. “Why do we need to sleep in? days are already going that fast that it would be too bad to let them pass by just sleeping and not doing something else. Don’t you think?”
He walked to the pile of pancakes and took one off, rolling it together and took a bite from it while he was waiting for the other pancake to bake.
“You mother had the idea we should do something together today. What do you think?”

Snow watch a very tired looking Emma slip her coffee, a small smile crossed her face still not a morning person. "I was thinking maybe we could have a day of it just spending time together watching movies or we could go tp the lake . Whatever you want." She wanted to give her daughter first family memory."If she would like some chocolate in the pancakes we can throw some in, its not like everyday we eat them anyway.
Running a hand through her dark hair,she giggle watching Henry go to town on breakfast. "Slow down sweetie or you'll get an upset stomach." Getting up from the chair and walked over toward Charming plate , she pickup one of the little flat breads. "so whats should we do today?"

”Nice,” Emma smiled at her small victory of chocolate filled pancakes. It was the little things that made her get through the day –especially one in which she would have gladly slept away- and now Emma could avoid a blueberry morning. She gave David a small appreciative nod as she grabbed her the tin of chocolate chips. Damn right she’d take chocolate over blueberries when given the chance. ”I think I’ll just go crazy on my breakfast myself and save you from her wraith.” Emma tipped the can of chocolate chips into the batter David was cooking, loading the surface with far more than Mary Margaret would ever allow.
As David worked on breakfast, Emma sipped at her coffee, slowly allowing the Godsend of a liquid to wake her up. ”Sleep? Oh I don’t know, maybe to recharge after being brought to a whole new realm and figuring out a bunch of stories is real life?” She tossed Henry a knowing look as she winked towards her son. Surely this was a dream come true for the ten-year-old boy. Having Snow White and Prince Charming, both in their twenties, as grandparents couldn’t be topped by anyone in his class. Emma reached towards her plate and doused the already sugary pancakes in syrup.
The blonde took a seat next to her son as she began to dive into her sugary meal. Mouth open, folks raised mid stop, Emma’s eyes went back and forth from her mother and father. ”Umm…” What did she want to do today? With her parents? If she was an unusual candidate for motherhood, she was even more out of place as a kid. ”I pick the lake.” Sitting around on the couch had a higher chance for awkward moments. Getting out about town had the downside of running into others, who currently thought coming to Emma meant she could solve all her problems. Still, her parents would probably be more enjoyable outdoors. Watching them standing next to each other definitely looked fairy tale-ish.”We could all use some fresh air.”

David knew that his daughter was actually having a point there. It wasn’t that easy for her to understand and to accept that she was part of a fairy tale herself with him being her father and Snow white being her mother.
If he was honest with himself it was something he had to adjust to as well, the fact that his daughter was actually almost the same age like he was, having a grandson now as well and just the fact that Emma found them was already a lot to think about and adjust to.
The thing that he already learned about his daughter was that she liked coffee and that she really got the urge for chocolate from her mother. It’s because of that he gave his daughter a smile when she put almost all the chocolate in that one pancake he was baking.
He flipped over the pancake while he listened to his daughter, about what she was going to pick to go to as a family today. He was glad that she picked the lake, it was his choice as well.
The thick pancake, or should he say chocolate pancake was ready so he took the frying pan and walked towards Emma with it. “Then the lake it will be” he said with a smile while he let the pancake land on Emma’s plate. “one chocolate pancake for the lady, enjoy while it's still warm” He put the now empty frying pan on the counter, ready to be cleaned and put away again.

"Ok ,the Lake it is , this will be so much fun." Snow watched on as Henry and Emma ate there food thinking over all the things they would need for the visit. Pursing her lips as she thought about the items . "I better make a list, for this." She got up and picked up her coffee cup so she could clean it and put it away. Walking over to the kitchen island where the tiny pad of paper laid "Let see ..." sun block , towels.."Oh did you you'll want to eat lunch out there ? Cause I can pack us something to eat ."
Looking over at Henry"Does he have his swim suit? " then Snow looked over at Charming"Did you remember to get all of cloths from Regina's when you took him home?" A million questions she wanted to ask and lot of them were going to be pointed at Emma, but she didn't want to scare her daughter off with the crazy going off in her head. "So when do you all want to start the family outing ?" She smiled wide gripping the pad of paper in front of her. Looking at a syrup covered Henry , and darted her eyes over at Emma who had picked up a napkin to wipe off his face. Her whole face soften just watching this heart warming moment.

David looked at Emma for a brief moment when Snow asked them if they would want to lunch there as well. “Well, Emma and Henry can decide about that, I’m fine with everything” He wanted to let his daughter choose, cause if she was fine with it, and henry was fine with it, it meant that they were happy, and that’s all he cared for, to make them happy.
An ‘oops’ look on his face betrayed him that he forgot to bring really all of the clothes of Henry from Regina’s house. “Maybe he can wear one of mine?” he suggested, wanting to help for finding a solution of something he forgot to do. He winked at Henry “they are really cool swim shorts you know, you can pick the one you like the most” he saw that henry finished his breakfast and walked over to him to take his empty plate and put it on the pile of other things that had to be cleaned up. David shrugged “we can start after breakfast? When Emma is ready to go” he looked at Henry “go on buddy, go and choose your swimming short, we will think of a way to make it fit you”He saw that Emma was still eating from the chocolate pancake he made for her and quickly broke a piece of off it and put it in his own mouth before he winked playfully to Emma.
