"My name is Henry" Henry told Emma as he drunk out of the orange juice carton. Emma hadn't said a word since Henry arrived, she just stared at him. She knew this…whatever this was, was a product of magic. Was this a curse? Had she triggered some sort of magic reset button? She didn't know.

'I know' Emma thought to herself. Should she tell Henry that she already know who he is, or should she just keep this information to herself, what was the next step? What was her next move? "I should…take you home" Emma announced as she looked around for her car keys.

"No, I don't want to go back" Henry argued. "I want to stay with you"

"Henry-"Emma started while she was looking under her couch cushion.

"No, you don't understand. My mom, she's evil" Henry pleaded.

Emma sighed as she picked up her keys that somehow managed to slide under the sofa. This was so weird. Having the same conversation all over again. The difference this time, was that Emma knew Regina WAS the evil queen, she just didn't care. She wanted to get back to the woman she loved, and she was going to do things right this time. She knew how much Regina loved Henry, and she knew how upset and worried Regina felt when Henry went missing.

"I better call your Mom, I'm sure she's worried about you" Emma replied as she walked over to the house phone. She started dialing the number she knew by hard.

"She doesn't care about me" Henry whined, following Emma to the phone.

Emma knew the truth. She knew Henry meant the world to Regina, but she knew that Henry didn't know that. She herself didn't know that either when she first arrived. Things would be different this time. The phone ringed three times before a frantic sounding Regina answered the phone.

"Henry?" Regina asked from the other side of the phone. Emma swore she felt her heart stop for a moment. Just hearing the older woman's voice made her knees go weak.

"No, this is Emma" Emma responded before she realized the mistake she was making. "Fuck" Emma cursed under her breathe.

"Excuse me?" Regina asked.

"I'm sorry Regina" Emma apologized. She heard two gasps. One from over the phone, and one from behind her.

"Who is this?" Regina demanded. "Is this some kind of game, how did you get my number?"

"I'll explain everything later, I have Henry, I'm bringing him home, right now. I'll be there in about five hours" Emma explained. She didn't give Regina time to respond before she hung up the phone.

"How did you-"Henry asked but was cut off by the sound of the phone ringing. Emma was sure it was Regina again. She was worried about her son, and Emma understood that.

"Come one Henry" Emma called walking to the door.

"…But, I don't understand, how did you know who my mom was? How did you know her number?" Henry asked, he was confused.

Emma sighed her hand was on the front door, she was about to turn the knob and open it but instead she dropped her hand and turned around.

"I know about the curse Henry" Emma blurted out without much thought.

"You do?" Henry asked, his eyes widening with excitement. "So it is true, I knew it!" He smiled up at Emma.

Emma sighed again. "Yes"

Henry's smile slowly faded. "But…how did you know?" He pressed on.

Emma remembered promising Henry years ago when he had found out about Neal, that she would never lie to him again. She'd promised that she would always be honest. Emma sighed as the phone ringed once more. "How about I explain everything on the way back to Storybrooke?" She explained to Henry.
