44. I'm sowyy

A warming chapter to show you that you don't need to have the same blood to be a family.

HAPPY ONCE DAY EVERYONE!!!!

"MAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Henry squeals again making everyone in the room blurt out laughing again. He was calling for Emma with a mom-do-you-see-what-I-just-got?! look every single time he managed to unfold his presents with Killian's help.

For only 1 year old, she had already been told that Henry was a very expressive boy, always showing very well what he was feeling. Emma had already noticed that, especially when they read him a story before bed. He'd go all scared when the little duck got lost or when the wolf would come to eat the innocent pig, even though he'd heard that story hundreds of times.

Mary Margaret had grabbed her own phone and was now recording as Henry yelled for his mother's name every 5 minutes.

"Yes, yes, baby! What is it this time?"

Henry hands her the big box of 100 coloring pens and Emma gasps when she grabs it.

"One hundred?! Anna, he's one. He doesn't need that many!"

"Oh come on, it was nothing. I just really have a feeling here Henry will be an artist in the future."

Henry gets all the attention that night and that's all Emma wanted.

All adults are always congratulating him and asking him about his new presents and pulling him onto their laps - and Henry lets him as he's turned out to be a really open person to everyone who's good to him.

Later that night, when everyone is still laughing and talking at the table and Neal and Henry are sleeping on the couch - three generations together in the room, from the proud "grandparents", to the still-going-through-life adults, to the ones who still get to enjoy living carelessly, that unite and it's like they're one.
Friends, adopting daughter, newly lovers... That night, they bring back the past, a reunion, that makes them feel like they've finally reached the point in life of stability - or at least a safeplace.

Her sleep is so peaceful after that little party, that she plans to get up early and go get some Granny's breakfast for her two loves of her life.

Killian, as expected, feels her moving out of bed and wakes up, asking her where she intends on going and she has to tell him her little surprise. She begs to go anyway with that "it's impossible to surprise you" old argument and he lets her after a round of hungry kisses that get her blushing the whole way to the old woman's diner.

When she gets back home, Granny's take-out bags in her hands, she's shocked to find Killian shirtless lying on the carpet of their bedroom and Henry scribbling lots of papers on the floor with his new pack of 100-different-colors pencils.

Oh right, that and the fact that Killian is asleep and his bare back is currently rainbow toned.

"Killian. Killian!" she throws the bags to their bed and wakes him up.

"I'm sorry, love. I totally dozed off."

She watches him as he gets up, totally unaware of what's just happened.

"Killian... Your back..."

"Hun?"

"Mind coming with me to the mirror?" she places both her hands on her hips and sighs before picking Henry up and follow Killian to the bathroom.

"Is there something wrong?" he stands there.

"Maybe you wanna check your back?"

His face totally changes and she's expected all but this. He starts laughing non-stop - which makes Henry laugh uncontrollably with his hands covering his eyes.

"No, no! You don't laugh about this. He thinks this is funny. It's not." She lets him down on his feet and starts to grab a towel to wet it. "He's got you around his finger just because he's cute and I know you feel like you can't be mad at him because he's my son, but Killian, now I'm serious. Be angry at him. Tell him this is wrong-"

He looks at her and sees the need to be comprehended in her eyes.

She's never had to be really mad at him. This is his first big mess and she knows he didn't do it in a mean way but- gosh she just doesn't want to ruin her mother figure now.

She's read. And the things she's read are scary. Children that turn out against their parents, children who dominate them, kids wrongly educated that become- okay her train of thought is going at the speed of light.

It's okay.

It's just 100 freaking coloring pens and a little artistic inspiration on Killian's back.

"Aye, you're right, Swan. I will tell him this is wrong." He says and she takes a deep breath before going to touch his back with the towel. "Wait! Don't wash it, yet. Let it on. So that he knows what we're talking about."

"This... this is not a dog." She starts laughing really loud, at the resemblance of teaching the animal where not to pee.

"I'm not-" he laughs too, holding her because he's cheeks even hurt. "As you can see, my experience with children is nonexistent, love. I apologize." They walk out of the bathroom to where Henry is sitting on the bed, hiding his box of pens under their pillows as if that way they won't take him as guilty.

"Well, you're doing pretty well." She says under her breath but he hears her and so he turns around just to give her a warming smile.

"Henry, what about a little talking, hun?" He climbs up their bed and goes to circle his arms around him to pull him onto his lap, his rainbow back to her and making her want to make her laugh because seriously he's ridiculously so good at this.

"Was it you who did this on my back, Henry?" He asks but he just hides his face on his chest. "You need to always tell the truth, lad. Only bad boys lie or hide."

"Henry not bad." He says with his sad voice.

"Aye, I know that. Now, who did this on my back?"

He starts crying when he sees that this is serious and bad and he points to himself. "Henry."

"You did a bad thing, Henry. But you didn't know, right?" He doesn't nod, but he knows he's listening as his shiny eyes look right back at him. "So now you apologize for the bad thing you've done. You say "I'm sorry". And that makes people know that you won't do that again. That you weren't a bad boy."

"Not bad Henry."

"Exactly, you say "I'm sorry" and you'll make people smile."

"I'm sowyy dad."

OH BAM HOW'S THAT FOR AN ENDING? MHUAHHAHAAHA

HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY OUAT TONIGHT!
Now im going to bed so that I can wake up at 2am and watch it 😂
