[Occ: Spoilers ahoy for those that have not watch the last episode of season 3. Takes place during the One Year gap with Emma and Henry in New York ] One of the school holidays had started this week, which meant for Henry Swan that he did not have to go to school, it also meant he got to spend time with his mother, Emma Swan, he had been wanting to spend more time with her for a while now but school and homework always got in the way, most of the time they spent together was on weekends but Henry just wanted to spend as much time with his mum as possible, she was after all the only family he had. It wasn't just that though but his mum was just the most awesome mum who ever lived, seriously she was, she even had an extremely cool job, where she went around catching bad guys. His mum was a Bail Bonds-person, he knew what she did and its wasn't just about catching bad guys but that didn't stop him from thinking it was a really cool job, because well it was a cool job and his mum was the best, he loved getting to spend as much time with her as possible, she always knew what to do. It wasn't just the school holiday that was making him happy though, it was also the fact that very soon it would be a very special day for him, it was going to be his birthday, Henry was going to be twelve years old and he couldn't wait, he loved his birthday's though he felt they were pretty hazy, he remembered exactly what he got for all of them, he remembered his bike that his mum had got him for his eighth birthday. Sadly though that bike had broken now so his mum had brought him a new one to replace the old, it was just as awesome as the new one actually it was slightly better. Henry was actually up early this morning trying to make his mum some toast for breakfast in secret, he was sneaking around the apartment trying to get everything in place, trying not the bang anything and trying his hardest to get everything ready by 8:15, when his mums alarm clock would go off to get them up. He was being as quiet as a mouse though getting the toast ,the stuff for the hot chocolate, he had to get a chair to reach the cereals though, and he winced as the chair made a squeaking sound. He stopped for a moment and looked towards the room where his mum was sleeping, " don't wake up, don't wake up," he whispered to himself just hoping she wouldn't, he didn't want to the surprise to be ruined, plus she might end up telling him off for what he was doing, climbing on a chair to get the cereal, she was good mum but that didn't stop her from grounding him if he did something wrong. He waited for a few more minutes then continued with what he was doing, finally getting the chair in the right place then getting the cereal down, it was at that moment the toast popped up in the toaster. he grinned not caring about the noise and he jumped off the chair getting the butter and started putting stuff on the toast. He could not wait until she got up, it was nearly 8:15 now so he needed to hurry to finish off. Emma Swan

It was 8:15 in the morning. She'd had a restless night to begin with. Emma knew his birthday was coming up. Ensured she had nothing on the books over the next few days because it was Henry's birthday and wasn't going to work at all. It was important for her to spend time with Henry. As much as they could. She couldn't stay home the entire holiday. She had to work to keep the roof over their head and food in their stomach. The alarm went off and she hit the snooze button and went back to sleep for a bit. During her sleep, she knew she'd heard some rattling around in the kitchen but she didn't have the desire to get up just yet. Henry could take care of himself within reason. Even if it was his birthday coming up, it wasn't his birthday yet, so Emma didn't need to be up just yet.
Finally she slid out of bed, yes her hair was a mess, so she ran her hair through it in the attempt to get it to straighten out some, but it still looked like crap. Making her way to the bathroom off of her bedroom, Emma took care of her morning ritual. Though this time it didn't consist of a shower. It was her day off and she'd take care of it later. In her pajama pants and shirt, Emma strolled out to see breakfast already prepared.
"Henry, what is all this?" Her tone was a bit accusatory. "You know you're not supposed to stand up on the chair to get the cereal down." Though with as smart as he was, she figured he'd have something smartass to say back about it. Though she couldn't help but be happy about him making breakfast for her before she got up. "What's this for?"

He had finished only just after 8:15 which while it wasn't exactly perfect timing because Emma usually got up then, it was good in the end because his mum had decided to sleep in a bit, which gave Henry more time to make sure everything was ready and in place in time. He took the extra time to water the plant's before breakfast ,like he did every day as one of his chores and then get the hot coco himself. He was sure he had a few more chores to do, and he knew he would have to do them soon, the problem was he had actually forgotten what those chores where, and he had yet to get dressed out of his Pj's but he could do that after breakfast. For now though he just had to wait until his mum came out,which wasn't that long now. Henry beamed widely when she came out of her room, and he stood next to the table proud of what he had accomplished and how quickly he had done it for her. "Morning, mum" he said, his tone extremely happy that she was up now and that the day could begin. His face fell a little at her tone when she asked what it was. " I...it's bre...breakfast for us mum,I just thought I could do it for a change," he told her really worried now that she didn't like that she had done this. She then told him off about using the chair and he decided to use some smart remark, "if I couldn't get the cereal there would of been no surprise, and you would of had to make it all," he told her with a cheeky grin on his face before looking down at his feet. " I'm sorry mum I won't do it next time, I watered the plants though." He told her happily before going to sit down at the table. " I just wanted to say thank you, thank you for being the best mum ever, and it's my birthday soon I just wanted to do something for you as well," He said with a huge smile on his face before realizing there was no spoons, he got up and walked not running as Emma was in the room. He got the spoons and placed them were they were sitting. "Come on mum, I made everything you like."

It wasn't that she was mad at him per se. It was just that he could have fallen off the chair. They hadn't made it eleven years for no reason, ya know? She loved the kid. Even if Neal had left her for pretty much everything and to the cops to take the fall for the watches. Why the Hell had she fallen for it? It was too much to dwell on now anyway. She and Henry had a big week. "Henry, it's not that I don't want you to do it again. I don't want you to fall and break your leg. Or God forbid your neck. Think about that. What if you died? Who would I have then?" Grabbing him by the neck, she pulled him close. "You're the only family I have." Rolling her eyes she looked down at him. "And don't even count Walsh in this. For right now, you're my family, kid." Where she got calling him 'kid' from she didn't know. But she had always called him that. It just fit their little unit. It seemed right.
He had to throw in that little reminder that it was his birthday soon. Rolling her eyes and smiling, she tilted her head and sighed. "You're trying to remind me of the day that I gave birth to you? I think I remember that quite clearly." Taking a seat, Emma took a drink of her cocoa and looked at him. "Sooo, breakfast made for me pretty much for your birthday. Well almost your birthday. What's your angle kid?" What did he want?

"Mother and son" ------------------- The Little Prince-Henry ------------------- "I was being careful mom," Henry replied back "I wouldn't of hurt myself," he frowned a bit though as she told him her worries of the things that could of happened. He always liked that about his mom that she would not sugar coat things, and the fact she never really lied to him. Like how she had told him about his dad when he was 10, she had told him the truth about what he had done to her. How he had left her and what it was over. He hated his father for that, leaving his mom all alone, Henry really hoped he would never see him ever, because if he did he wasn't sure how he would react. He didn't want his mom to worry about being alone ever again, and he knew she wouldn't be not with him here.
He looked at her sadly sniffling as she mentioned he could of died not really realizing there was a few tears in his eyes at that, the thought of that happening and his mom being left alone. "No one," Henry responded quietly sniffling again as he was pulled in close to her into a hug. He Knew he had to be careful in the hug as his mom was pregnant. "I'm sorry mom I didn't think, I don't want you to be alone, not after what dad did to you." He looked up at her smiling a little and wiped his eyes. "Always will be," Henry said with a slight grin, he was never going to leave her. Though he really liked Walsh "Are you seeing Walsh this week mom?" He asked her curiously tilting his head a bit
Henry sat opposite her now that everything was ready and passed her, her breakfast and pulled his over to him, taking a sip of his coco at the same time Emma did. "What make's you think I got an angle mom?" Henry asked looking down into his coco, "well I was hoping, we could take a trip, the day before my birthday mom. Just you and me, not Avery or Piper." Henry got a little bit of a dazed look on his face when he mentioned Piper, but he looked back at his mom quickly. "It's not just for me either mom, I wan't to spend time with you just us two before my little sister is born, before it becomes us three, and maybe Walsh." Henry looked at his moms bump and then smiled at her, he was really excited to be becoming a big brother and he felt like he had to look after hi mom for the birth. He had wanted it to be a boy but a little sister would do he could protect her.

For such a bright kid, Henry wasn't getting it. "I know you were being careful, Kid. but Heather and I need you." She'd calmed down completely and was smiling now. "Tell ya what. Let's move the cereal to the bottom shelves so you don't have to climb on the chairs anymore." Since she had the day off, she figured she'd do that today. "Oh and watering the plants is your part of the deal anyway." Emma said as she ruffled his hair. Taking the spoon from him she started eating her breakfast, buttered the toast and took a sip of her hot chocolate. Even on a summer day she could care less about a cold drink. She loved her hot chocolate. That was the one things she missed in prison. That and Henry after he'd been born. He was 4 months old by the time she'd gotten out. The orphanage had sent her pictures of him. It had given her something to live for. That and a set of keys that went to a car that she'd stolen from Neal... Who'd stolen it from someone else. "You know, maybe it's time I buy a new car. I think I might need one with the baby on the way." Rubbing her belly she looked up at Henry and smiled. Yes, their little family was about to expand. This would be his last birthday with just the two of them. It made her think of Graham. Sure she was dating Walsh now for 5 months. But what if Graham came home from Afghanistan? Then what? Henry loved him terribly as did Emma. She was 7 months along and dating a really nice guy. She'd always make sure Heather knew her father. That wasn't going to change. Ahh a trip, so that was his angle. "A trip? Where did you want to go?" Another mouthful of toast came when she saw that look in his eyes. "Don't think I didn't notice that look when you mentioned Piper. You like her, Henry." When he mentioned before they became a family of three Emma understood. He wanted some last minute time with Mom. He'd had her all to himself for 12 years. This was going to be a huge adjustment for him. For Emma as well. Then he mentioned Walsh as well. That's when her spoon fell to the table and her hands went out. "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on there. Who said anything about Walsh? Graham is still in Afghanistan, Henry. I'm not giving up on him yet. Heather's still got her dad. He'll come back." Her son knew how much she loved Graham. He'd asked her if she was going to see Walsh this week. Glancing up she arched her brow. "Of course I'm going to see him. Why wouldn't I? Plus you know he wants to see you for your birthday. He's got something planned for you."
