52
We left the shop quite quickly and the others made their way back to the apartment while I went home for a shower and a fresh set of clothes. Once I was changed I ate some food and I realized that I was starving, I hadn't eaten for ages. I glanced at the couch were I had thrown Killian's jacket. Slipping off the chair I was sat on I couldn't help but pick it up and bury my nose in the fabric. Breathing in the heavy scent of rum and sea salt that lingered on it I felt my heart aching for Killian. But I knew that crying wasn't the way to fix things. I dropped his jacket and left the house for Mary Margaret's apartment, but not before grabbing a plate of my famous cupcakes.
I knocked on the door of the apartment and smiled when Henry opened the door. "Hey kid, I brought you a treat" I said and handed him the plate.
"Yes!" he exclaimed "I love these ones" he said and ran to the kitchen to begin his usual massacre of the cakes.
"Hey, hey" Emma said walking in with a grin "Slow down or you'll get sick" she warned. Henry looked up at her with icing all over his face and she raised an eyebrow. He pulled a face but his pace did slow down a lot. "Hey, thanks for that" she smiled and nodded towards Henry.
"Anytime" I said and then I saw Mary Margaret. "What happened to her?" I asked Emma and nodded to the bed that she was curled up in.
"She hate's herself for killing Cora. It's destroying her" Emma explained in a hushed tone and I nodded.
"Where's David? Shouldn't he be helping her?" I asked and Emma shook her head.
"Gold turned up this morning and told us that Regina's planning on killing Mary Margaret in revenge. Who knows what's going to happen" Emma explained. I was going to ask another question but the front door opened and David, along with Mr Gold, walked into the room very serious expressions on their faces. "What did you find?" Emma asked.
"She's planning to cast a curse called 'the curse of the empty hearted'" Gold explained and I raised an eyebrow.
"What does that do?" Emma asked before anyone else could.
"In theory it has the power to make someone love you" Gold explained.
"Doesn't that break magic laws?" she asked "Can't bring someone back to life, can't force someone to love you"
"This particular spell can make someone think that they love you. And if your desperate for love, as Regina appears to be, you might just believe it" Gold sighed.
"She's going to use it on me, isn't she?" Henry asked and we all looked over to him. He had long forgotten the cupcakes and had wiped the icing off his face as he walked over to us.
"Why don't you go upstairs, let us handle this?" David said and Henry shook his head and pushed past him.
"No!" he cried and ran to Emma's side "Emma, you said you were going to be honest with me. Now why is Regina using this curse?" he asked. I smiled and folded my arms across my chest. Henry could be so smart some times.
"Because it's the only way she can get everything that she wants" Gold explained to him "The only way she can get you."
"But if all she want's is me--" Henry began.
"Your mother is a complicated woman. She want's your love of course but she also wants vengeance, on Mary Margaret" Gold interrupted him with a glance to the bed where she was sleeping.
"How does the curse get her both?" I asked.
"Because the last ingredient she need to enact the cures is the heart of the person she hates the most" Gold explained.
