Emma tightly squeezed her eyes shut as she began to wake up. She didn't get much sleep last night and when she had managed to fall asleep, a little after three, it wasn't a restful one. Even before she had tried to go to bed she had taken a walk around town in order to calm her mind. Not only had she been too excited to sleep, but she had also been worried about Regina. The hesitation that she had seen on her face the last few days made Emma believe that she was going to have a runaway bride situation on her hands. Emma exhaled through her nose and tried not to focus on the upsetting thoughts. Regina had told her that she wasn't having second thoughts about the wedding and Emma was going to believe her until she saw otherwise.

Emma groaned when she heard little feet running down the hall and coming towards the guest room. She opened one of her eyes and picked up her cell phone off of the nightstand. It was seven in the morning. The wedding wasn't until one and she didn't have to start getting ready until twelve, so it was too early for her brother and sister to come bothering her. The door to her room opened and Emma pretended to be asleep as her little brother and sister tried to creep into the guest room. James shushed Kayleigh then told her in a quiet voice, "We have to be quiet so we can scare her."

"Mommy said we were supposed to let Emma sleep. It's her big day," Kayleigh told him as they got closer to the bed.

James whispered to her, "But it's not everyday she sleeps over."

Emma sat up and scared them then she asked, "What are you two doing?"

Kayleigh giggled as she climbed on the bed. "James wanted to wake you up and see if you wanted to have breakfast with us. We're having lucky charms."

Emma raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where's mom and dad?"

"Sleep," James said as he jumped on the bed and fell to his knees.

Emma nodded. She realised that her parents were now leaving her little brother and sister up to their own devices in the morning. They were old enough to fend for themselves for a little while in the morning. She had done it when she was younger. Emma reached out to tickle them both and said, "All right squirts lets go have breakfast."

The two of them jumped off the bed then Emma got out of it and followed them down the stairs. The three of them were in the kitchen getting breakfast when the doorbell rang. Kayleigh's eyebrows scrunched together and as she asked, "Who's that?"

Emma closed the milk and told her, "I will go find out. You guys eat." She walked out of the kitchen then walked down the hall to get to the front door. She opened the front door and was surprised to see Jake standing on the porch. "Jake what are you doing here?"

Jake had a huge smile on his face. "Emma-Watch."

"Emma-Watch?" She repeated not understanding the phrase. Emma didn't need to be watched. Regina was the one that needed watching.

Jake nodded and explained, "Yeah. Henry said that you might get freaked out so I'm here to talk you down if you do. This is my contribution since you and Ms. Mills invited me to the wedding."

Emma slowly nodded in understanding then she wondered, "And Henry doesn't think my mom will be able to handle my freak outs?"

Jake grimaced as an uncomfortable look came across his face. He muttered, "Yeah. Something about her being overbearing and you snapping on her." Emma narrowed her eyes at him and he smiled. "But you won't snap on someone that you barely know. Someone who also happens to be your son's amazing boyfriend and thinks that you're the most awesome person in the world." Emma continued to look at Jake with a sceptical look and he added, "Did fail to mention that I'm dating your son and that I love him a lot?"

Emma regarded the young man who now had an uncertain look on his face. She moved to let Jake in and told him, "Henry's probably right. You've met my mother." She frowned and whispered to him, "She can be a bit much."

As if she had heard her name being said up on the second floor Mary Margret called down, "Emma who's at the door?"

"It's Jake mom. Henry sent him over to watch me." Emma replied as she gestured for Jake to follow her back to the kitchen.

Mary Margret came downstairs and said, "To watch you? Why would you need watching?" She smiled at Jake. "Hi Jake."

"Good morning Mrs. Nolan," Jake said with a polite smile on his face.

Emma rolled her eyes. Her mother ate up Jake's politeness towards her. Since everyone in the town called her Mary Margret or Snow it was a change of pace for someone to call her Mrs. Nolan and she was giddy every time Jake called her that. "Jake I told you Mary Margret is fine or Snow. I don't hear you calling Emma, Ms. Swan."

"He's not allowed to do that," Emma stated as quick as possible. There was only one person who was allowed to call her Ms. Swan and it most definitely wasn't her son's boyfriend. "Jake did you have breakfast?" He nodded and she chuckled. "Of course you did. Regina has taken a shine to you and that's a rare thing."

Jake sat down at the kitchen table with Kayleigh and James as he said, "Well that's a good thing. I have to admit I was a little worried that she wouldn't like me especially since I am-"

"Ah, ah, ah," Emma said as she held up her hand. "I don't know where that sentence was headed but don't say it. Also Regina's like of you probably only extends so far so I wouldn't test that."

Jake chuckled. "I have no plan to do so." Emma walked over and placed a bowl of lucky charms in front of her little brother and Jake wondered, "So it's the big day…nervous?"

Emma set Kayleigh's bowl in front of her then she blew out a breath. She wasn't nervous about the wedding. She was nervous about all the time between now and when she and Regina were standing at the end of the aisle. Emma had a nagging feeling that something about this day was going to go wrong but she had no idea what it was. "No I'm not nervous. I just can't want to be married to the woman that I love."

Jake continued to smile at her but the moment was short-lived when James began to pretend like he throwing up. Emma scowled at her younger brother and asked, "Is there a problem?"

James shook his head and Kayleigh snickered at him. Snow scolded them both. "James, Kayleigh that wasn't nice. Apologise to Emma then eat your cereal. We've got a lot to do today." She looked at Emma who was standing by the counter and stuffing her mouth full of lucky charms. Mary Margret blew out an aggravated breath. "I have the dwarves and Marco setting up the tents with a few others in town. After I get Kayleigh and James ready we're going to help Granny with getting things ready for the reception then it'll be time for you to get ready."

Emma held her spoon in midair as the reality of what was happening hit her. She was going to get married today. She was going to be someone's wife. She dropped her spoon back into her bowl then stated, "Holy crap I'm getting married."

Mary Margret chuckled and remarked, "You've known this for the last six months Emma."

Emma scowled at her mother then explained why she had said that. "I know that but now that it's the day and the fact that it's actually happening is a bit surreal so I'm having a moment."

"Uh-oh. Do I need to do anything? Tackle you to the ground to make sure you don't runaway or anything?" Jake asked with an uncertain look on his face. Emma knew that he didn't want to do it but then again she wasn't sure what Henry had told him to do if she was showing symptoms of getting cold feet.

Emma chuckled then reassured him. "Calm down Jake. I'm just saying it's surreal for me. I don't have any urge to pull a missing bride bit."

Jake relaxed a little then mumbled, "Thank goodness." He chuckled. "Henry is damned determined to see his moms get married and if it doesn't happen I think he'll actually go into therapy. Still surprised he didn't after what happened-"

"I think that's enough Jake," Emma said, cutting him off from mentioning Henry walking in on her and Regina. She was surprised that she hadn't needed therapy afterwards either. Emma finished off her cereal then announced, "Okay let's all finish breakfast then we can run down to the park to see how the wedding setup is coming along."

Mary Margret shot her a look and said, "Emma…"

"I don't have anything else to do," Emma countered. "I can't sit here and not do anything. I'll get bored out of my mind and next thing you know I'm breaking some stupid tradition about seeing the bride before the wedding."

Mary Margret blew out an aggravated breath and muttered something under her breath. What it was Emma wasn't sure of because she had said it low enough so that she wouldn't hear. She sighed then said, "Fine. We'll go see how the setup is going but you are not allowed to lift a finger do you understand young lady?"

Kayleigh snickered then said, "Emma's in trouble."

Emma stuck her tongue out at her little sister then she looked at her mom. "I will not lift a single finger."

"If she does I will tell Henry and he will give her that face that he gets when I do something he doesn't like," Jake added in with a slight grimace on his face.

Emma groaned and said, "Oh that's the Mills face of disapproval. You get used to it."

Jake frowned and commented, "I don't think I want to get used to it. He gives me the silent treatment which is no fun."

Emma chuckled because Regina did the same thing before she eventually chewed her out. She shrugged then finished her milk and once she was done she placed the bowl into the sink. Then she turned to look at James and Kayleigh. "Come on squirts finish up so we can get dressed and go help with the wedding." She looked at Mary Margret, "I'm going to go take a shower so I won't have to take one later." Her mom nodded at her then she headed out of the kitchen. Emma couldn't help to do a little skip as she headed for the stairs. She was getting married today then she and Regina would be off to a warm island for a week.

Regina wasn't sure what she was going to do with herself. It was only nine in the morning and the wedding was at one. After she, Jake, and Henry had eaten breakfast Henry had sent Jake to his grandparents house to watch Emma while he made sure that she didn't run. Regina scoffed at the idea of her running from her own wedding. She wasn't going to run. She was just waiting for something bad to happen. Henry walked into the living room wearing jeans, boots, and a short sleeved flannel shirt. Her eyebrow went up as she wondered, "Where are you going?"

He beamed a smile at her. "We're going horseback riding."

"Horseback riding?" She repeated sounding sceptical about the activity. "You do know that I have a wedding to get ready for don't you?"

Henry nodded and the smile remained on his face as he said, "I know you do but I have two reasons why that won't get you out of this."

"And what are they?"

He held up his index finger. "One, we'll be only gone for an hour, maybe two." He put up his second finger. "And two you're just going to use magic to get ready anyway."

Regina eyed her son for a moment then remarked, "Don't be a smartass." She got up from the couch. "And I won't be using magic to get ready for the wedding but I will take you up on your offer to go riding." It would offer her a better distraction than her current one which was sitting around and thinking about what could ruin her wedding.

She walked over to Henry and he wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "It'll be fun. Riding will take your mind off of whatever is going on in your head and time will fly by."

Regina wrapped her arm around Henry's waist then gave him a quick squeeze. "You're a good son."

Henry chuckled then said, "You remember that when I ask you for an extra hundred bucks when I go back to school."

Regina rolled her eyes and remarked, "And you're back to being your mother's child."

Henry laughed and she smiled. Spending the morning with Henry doing her favourite activity wasn't a bad idea. It would let her forget about the feeling of dread that was following her around and she would be able to think about the wedding that would be happening in a few hours. She moved away from Henry and told him, "I'm going to change."

Henry nodded and pulled his phone out of his pocket. "Okay mom. I'm going to call Jake to see how ma is doing."

Regina chuckled as she went up the stairs. Henry had designated himself as the official coordinator for the wedding so that way she and Emma wouldn't have to worry about a thing. Henry was persistent to see them get married. Regina on the other hand just wanted the wedding out of the way. Because if the actual ceremony was done then the nagging feeling that something was going to go wrong would, she hoped, go away.

Regina went into her and Emma's room and changed into her riding pants and a black sleeveless button up top then she put on her brown riding boots. She put her hair up in a ponytail then left out of the room. As she made her way over to the stairs she could overhear Henry talking on his phone in the foyer. "So the tents are up and ready to go?" He chuckled then asked, "And my mom's tent is setup how I wanted it to be?" Henry scoffed. "My mom is a former queen do you really think putting a chaise lounge in there is too much?"

Regina smirked and as she went down the stairs she said, "I think it's too much. Even as a former queen."

Henry looked at her. "Well I've already requested it."

Regina chuckled and shook her head. "You're being a bit of a bridzilla."

Henry gawked at her as he said, "I am not."

Regina walked over to him and placed her hand on his shoulder. "You are. I know you want this to be the perfect wedding for Emma and me but it doesn't have to be perfect. We have you, your aunt and uncle, and your grandparents. It's already the perfect wedding."

Henry smiled at her. "I know mom but this is you getting your happy ever after and I want it to be over the top."

Regina laughed. She couldn't argue with that so she sighed. "Fine then make the wedding over the top but don't go crazy or you will have Emma running for the hills."

She and Henry started for the door as he chuckled. "Oh, don't worry Emma has the best tent in the world. It's stock with video games and snacks so she should be good."

Regina laughed because Henry was right because the video games would keep her preoccupied and the snacks would help alleviate her stress. A slight frown appeared on Regina's face. Maybe that wasn't a good idea. Emma had a tendency to fall asleep after gorging on food. "Henry, make sure Jake doesn't let her fall asleep," she said as they walked out the front door. As she locked the door she added, "I refuse to have my wedding delayed because your mother stuffed her face full of ho-hos and put herself in a food coma."

She glanced at Henry out the corner of her eye and saw that he was trying stifle a laugh and was failing at doing so. He took a breath then said, "Okay mom. I will text Jake right now." Regina smiled and she was starting to think that maybe, just maybe, this day would be fine and that she and Emma would be able to get married without a problem.

Henry had managed to get his mom to relax the rest of the morning. Now they were an hour from the wedding when he got the text. Emma is missing. Of his two mothers Emma was the one that he didn't have to worry about. She seemed eager to have the wedding and was a hundred percent certain about walking down the aisle. Not to say his mom wasn't eager or not ready to walk down the aisle but she had her apprehensions which she had voiced to him last night. Emma hadn't given any indication that she was going to be a runner.

Henry was muttering under his breath as walked down the red carpet that served as the aisle so he could get to the other tent that was set up behind the trellis that was covered in vines and flowers. The wedding was being held in the park and the reception was also being held in the park but under a large tent. He walked into the tent and asked, "What happened?" Jake and his grandparents started talking at once and Henry scowled. "Okay, stop." He pointed at his grandma. "Grandma what happened?"

Mary Margret sighed then said, "Emma said she had forgotten something at the house and told me that she was going back there to go get it. That was an hour ago."

"An hour ago?" Henry repeated. He looked at Jake. "Why didn't you tell me when she wasn't gone after like a half hour? She could be anywhere by now."

An uneasy look came to Jake's face as he said, "I don't know. I mean I have only just met her so I didn't know what to expect. I mean she is getting married today Henry, so I thought she would want some space."

Henry ran his hand through his hair and sighed. He let it drop. "Okay fine. I'm sorry Jake. We have to go find her before my mom finds out. It's bad enough that she thinks something is going to happen and is going to ruin this day for her and Emma." His brow furrowed then he got a determined look on his face. "Okay we have an hour before the wedding so this means we have a half hour to find Emma before we have to tell my mom that she's missing. Okay?"

Everyone in the tent nodded in agreement and Henry sighed. "Okay. Let's go find Emma and I'll go-"

"Henry are you in there?" His mom said from outside the tent.

"Shit." Then he whispered, "Go find Emma."

His grandparents left out the back exit of the tent and Henry walked out the front of it. When he emerged Henry saw that his mom was still wearing the simple blouse and dress slacks and he grinned. "And here I thought you were running around in your robe with your hair half done."

His mom glared at him and folded her arms across her chest as she asked, "What's going on with Emma? You ran out of my tent after you looked at your phone so I can only assume it has something to do with her." She scowled. "Did she stuff her face full of ho-hos and pass out?"

Henry grimaced. He didn't want to lie to his mom especially on her wedding day. Henry bit his bottom lip then said, "We...uhh..." He looked down at the ground and mumbled, "We can't find Emma."

He heard his mom let out a sigh then she said, "You should have told me." She chuckled a little then he felt her place a kiss on his cheek. "Don't worry dear, Emma and I will still get married today. I just need to talk to her."

"Talk to her? You can't talk to her. You're not supposed to see here before the wedding." Henry pointed out, incredulous that his mom would dare suggest something like that.

She chuckled then told him, "I think she's not supposed to see me in my dress before the wedding but in any instance I would still talk to her." His mom winked at him then said, "Go eat something that's high in sugar and highly processed. I'll be back in a moment with your mother then the two of us can get married."

She gave him another kiss on the cheek then a cloud of purple smoke enveloped her and when it dissipated she was gone. Henry scowled for a moment at his mom's disregard for tradition but then he realised that she, nor Emma, were ones to follow such things. They were only doing it to humour their family. He walked back into the tent and said to Jake, "She's going to go look for Emma."

Jake nodded. "Sounds like a good idea."

Henry rolled his eyes and sighed. "I'm sure it is. I really didn't expect Emma to do this. She was so excited to propose and when we talked about the wedding she was ready for it."

Jake walked over to him and smiled. "Well I'm sure your mom can handle whatever is going on with her. If anyone can get Emma back it's her."

Henry nodded then said, "Well we've got awhile. Wanna play Grand Theft Auto?"

Jake chuckled a little as he took hold of Henry's hand. "You know this is probably the only chance we'll get to be alone today so-"

Henry caught onto his train of thought and he cut him off by kissing him. He had faith that his mom was going to fix whatever was going on with Emma and there would be a wedding. He had to believe it. There was no way he could believe anything else.

Emma was down on the beach and watching the water. She had no idea what had happened. She had been in the tent that she was using to get ready, eating Doritos and kicking Jake's ass in Fallout, when a panic started to come over her. All she had done was check the time and think about how she was going to be married in two hours. That one simple thought had turned into a downward spiral of doubt and her second-guessing herself. Emma didn't know if she was cut out to be Regina's wife. Sure they had been unconsciously been in a relationship for several years now and dating for the last year but now there relationship was going to be concrete and she didn't want mess up what they already had. Regina had been through so much already and she could bear to be the reason why the woman ended up unhappy. Emma released a heavy sigh.

"Emma….."

She glanced over her shoulder and saw that Regina was standing behind her. She looked back out at the ocean. "This is bad luck you know."

Regina walked closer to her and said, "I think it's bad luck for you to see me in my dress before the wedding." Emma continued to stare at the endless water that was in front of her and when Regina bumped her shoulder with hers she glanced at her out the corner of her eye. "What's the matter?"

Emma shook her head and said, "It's nothing. Stupid really."

"Apparently it's not that stupid if it has you running away from our wedding," Regina pointed out.

Emma turned her head so that she could look at her. "I'm not running away from our wedding. I just-I needed a moment."

Regina regarded her for a moment then she turned to focus on the water. "If you need a moment then have your moment." Emma looked down at the sand and began to play with it. Regina wasn't going to push her to talk about something if she wasn't ready to talk about it and she loved her for that because sometimes she didn't want to talk about it.

"I needed a moment last night." Regina let out a small chuckle. "I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop. The one that would inevitably destroy me getting my happy ending, yet again, but Henry helped me work through it. I'm still waiting for it but here we are, an hour away from our wedding, and though that's still a lot of time for something to happen, I think it's not going to. I think I'm going to get my happy ending."

Emma scoffed then remarked, "How can you think that when I'm sitting her getting cold feet?"

Regina laughed and the sound of it lifted Emma's spirits a little. "Because I love you Emma. So what if we don't get married? It doesn't mean it'll be the end of us, or our relationship., it just means we're not the marrying type." She laughed again. "However we may have a hard time convincing our son otherwise. He is such a bridezilla."

Emma chuckled. "He really is. I was helping set up a few chairs and he yelled at me for helping then he went on a tangent about the flowers on the trellis." She smiled at Regina. "God help us if he ever gets married."

Regina rolled her eyes then moved a piece of her hair behind her ear as she said, "That's if I let him get married."

"You seem to like Jake well enough," Emma pointed out with a grin on her face.

Regina narrowed her eyes at her. "Jake is a nice young man and seems to be well suited for Henry but I don't know if I would want our son to marry him." She scoffed. "And Henry only turned nineteen, we have awhile before he gets married. I want him to at least finish college."

Emma laughed and after she caught her breath she looked at Regina for a moment then leaned over to give her a kiss. It lingered for a moment then she pulled back and smiled at her. "I love you."

Regina placed her hand on Emma's cheek and returned the sentiment. "I love you too."

Emma took hold of her hand and asked, "Am I enough for you? Do you think I'll be a good wife for you?"

Regina sighed then she captured Emma's lips for an emotion filled kiss. Emma placed her hand on the back of Regina's neck as the kiss deepened and. Through it she felt the love that Regina was conveying to her. She never wanted it to stop, but it did when Regina pulled away from her. The earnest look that was in Regina's eyes made Emma's breath hitch and she bit her bottom lip to keep it from trembling.

No one had ever loved her as much as Regina loved her and it was in this moment that she knew, without a single shred of doubt, that the woman would always love her with her whole heart. "You will always be enough for me Emma Swan. Even when we're arguing with each other and you're pissing me off," Emma chuckled, "you will always be enough. You are a part of me and that's a part of myself that I'm going to hold on tight to and cherish forever."

Emma had to blink a few times to get rid of the tears that were blurring her vision then she took a breath before she whispered, "Okay."

Regina smiled then pressed a kiss to her forehead. Emma let her eyes close at the contact. She loved this woman so much and she would always love her. Regina pulled back and Emma opened her eyes. The other woman smiled at her. "So are we still having a wedding today?"

Emma nodded as she chuckled. Then she said, "I suppose we have to or Henry would stop talking to us both."

Regina laughed then remarked, "No he wouldn't. He'd still want money. We should talk to him about getting a job."

Emma rolled her eyes then she leaned forward to place a kiss on Regina's lips. She kept them there for a moment then pulled back, grinning. "Come on Madam Mayor. We have a wedding to get to so we can make this thing official."

Regina smiled. "I can't wait."

The two of them stood and Emma wrapped her arms around Regina's waist then pulled the woman close to her. As she looked into her eyes she smiled. Emma couldn't wait either. As she moved to kiss Regina a cloud of purple smoke enveloped them to transport them to the park where they would begin the journey of being together forever.

The wedding had been beautiful and Regina may have let a few tears fall during the ceremony which had been officiated by Archie. She was certain that she hadn't heard Emma's vows because all she could focus on was how beautiful the woman was. Lucky for her the ceremony had been filmed and she could relive the whole event later.

Emma was breathtaking in the dress that she was wearing. Regina had been worried about what Emma was going to wear because the woman had been tight lipped about it. For a brief moment Regina almost believed that she was going to wear a tank top and jeans but that hadn't been the case and when she and Henry walked to the head of the aisle she stopped breathing when she saw Emma in her dress. It was a strapless dress that had white on the sides and the middle was black with some intricate embroidery on it. She had her hair done up and there were blonde tendrils that framed her face. It was an image that would be burned into Regina's mind forever. Emma was now talking with Ruby and laughing and she looked so happy that it took Regina's breath away for the millionth time that day.

"Have you eaten yet?" Mary Margret asked as she sat down next to her.

Regina looked at her and smiled. "I will eat here in a moment." She looked back over to where Emma was. "She's beautiful."

Mary Margret hummed then said, "She is and so are you. It's nice to see you happy Regina. You've been happy for some time now but you're absolutely glowing with joy right now."

Regina chuckled then remarked, "Give it an hour. I'm certain Emma will do something that will upset me." She looked at Mary Margret. "Who would have thought you and I would be here?"

Mary Margret laughed a little then said, "I know. It seems like a miracle but here we are." She took hold of Regina's hand and gave it squeeze. "Eat Regina we can't have you passing out on your wedding day."

Regina rolled her eyes. "Fine I will eat." She got up and walked over to where the buffet was setup. As she made her plate, Regina was impressed with various and diverse group of foods that Emma and Granny had come up with. There was pasta, salad, several different types of meats, and desserts. Regina spotted the hot wings and instead of scowling at them she chuckled. Emma had found some way to get hot wings into their wedding.

Regina was getting some baked ziti when she felt an arm wrap around her waist. She glanced to her left and smiled. Emma kissed her cheek then whispered, "Mrs. Swan-Mills why don't you and I get out of here to really celebrate our wedding." Regina chuckled then took a cucumber off of her plate and bit into it. Emma ran her fingertips down her exposed back and goosebumps formed on her arms as a chill went down her spine. "Have I mentioned how much I love you in this dress?"

Regina smirked and replied, "You may have mentioned it once or twice."

Emma chuckled and said, "Do we have to stay for the rest of this? I mean we can go back to the house have some fun then we can jump on a plane to Hawaii to continue that fun on a private beach."

Regina laughed and she turned to face Emma. She held up her plate and said, "I told your mother I would eat and Henry has worked on his speech for a long time so we can't miss that. Also we haven't had our first dance yet and I still owe Henry a dance. Oh we also have to cut the cake."

Emma groaned. "Why is there so much bull crap to this wedding thing?" Regina laughed and Emma scowled. "It's not funny."

Regina pointed at the hot wings and said, "Eat, drink, and have some fun then you'll get what you want later."

Emma muttered something under her breath and Regina tried not to laugh. The two of them got something to eat then went over to the table to eat. They were almost done eating when they saw Henry walk to the middle of the dance floor with a microphone in his hand.

He brought it up to his mouth and said, "I'm not certain when a speech is made but it looked like a good time to have one. Emma has food in front of her and my mom has had a couple glasses of wine so they can't react right away." There was some laughter and Regina got a playful scowl on her face while Emma laughed. Henry chuckled then continued. "I'm only kidding mom. So it's like any normal story right? The saviour comes into town pisses the evil queen off and the two of them fight like cats and dogs for the longest fu-"

"Henry Daniel Mills," Regina said from her spot at her and Emma's table.

He grinned. "Sorry mom and it's Swan-Mills."

Emma leaned over and asked, "Did he really change his last name?"

Regina nodded. "He did it the same time I put in the paperwork for ours."

Emma chuckled then sat back in her seat as Henry finished his speech. "Anyway they fought for a really long time then Neverland happened." Regina reached for Emma's hand and the other woman gave it a squeeze. "And by Neverland happened I mean I was kidnapped and the two of them worked super hard to save me. So they saved me but not only do they do that but they fall in love."

Henry chuckled then added, "But they didn't admit to it for a really long time. Heck I didn't even notice it. My moms were getting along and that's all that mattered to me. But then we became this little family unit without realising it and those two crazy kids kept falling even more in love with each other even as they dated other people. Then the inevitable happened. A young boy walks into his house after his first semester of college excited to have a dinner with his moms. He goes upstairs to tell her that he's home and as soon-"

"Henry Daniel Swan-Mills!" Emma shouted as she stood from her chair.

Henry's face turned red and he ended his speech. "On that note congrats to my moms, I love you both."

As Emma sat down she muttered, "I'm going to kill that kid."

Regina chuckled then leaned over to give Emma a kiss on the cheek. As she moved back she whispered, "He gets that from you." Emma rolled her eyes and Regina laughed. It was the happiest day of her life and there was nothing that was going to ruin it.

xXxXxX

Emma was dancing with her dad and he chuckled, "You know I'm kind of glad for this whole weird curse thing because doing this when I'm like what, sixty, wouldn't have been fun."

Emma laughed then told him, "This weird curse thing has given us a lot of weird situations in our family but I'm glad we both can enjoy this."

The two of them laughed then he said, "That kid of yours is a trip huh?"

Emma glared at her dad and remarked, "Henry is close to ending up on a list of people that annoy the piss out of me." Her dad chuckled. "I'm serious. I'm worried about leaving him by himself while we're in Hawaii."

David laughed. "Don't worry about it. Your mother and I will make sure he doesn't do anything that will get him arrested." He paused for a moment then said, "The weirdest thing about all this is that you're married to the woman that tried to kill your mother on numerous occasions."

Emma laughed. She didn't mean to but since everyone had moved on from that problematic past she thought it was okay. "Don't think about it dad because it'll hurt your head."

David smiled. "I'm not going to think about it too much but I just wanted to say that it's nice to see Regina at this point."

Emma turned so that she could look at the woman that was the topic of their current discussion. Regina was dancing with Henry and the woman looked radiant. Regina had had a smile on her face all day long and Emma was certain that her face was hurting because of it. The simple navy dress she wore looked amazing on her and when Emma had seen her at the start of the ceremony her heart had done back to back somersaults. She looked at her dad. "It is nice to see her happy."

A couple minutes later the song that they were dancing to came to an end and Emma heard Regina ask, "May I cut in?"

David moved away from Emma. "By all means." He gave Emma's temple a quick peck then whispered, "Congratulations, Em."

She smiled at him. "Thanks dad." Regina took his place and as the two of them started to dance she asked, "Did Henry apologise for his speech?"

Regina chuckled then said, "He didn't because he wasn't going to actually mention it. I told him that Jake can stay a couple more days and the two of them aren't to do anything that would make me regret my decision to allow his boyfriend to stay."

"Well that was nice of you." A silence fell between them and Regina rested her head on Emma's shoulder. Emma kissed the side of her head then murmured, "We did it."

Regina sat up and smiled at her. "Did you doubt that we would?" Emma raised an eyebrow and Regina chuckled. "Okay so we both had our moments but I think we would have gotten here no matter what."

Emma smiled. "We would have." Regina rested her head back on her shoulder as the two of them continued to dance.

A few minutes had gone by when Regina lifted her head. Emma saw the mischievous glint in her eye and she began to wonder what the other woman was up to. "Do you think we can sneak out of here?"

A huge grin came to Emma's face. "I think we can. I'll make my way out and tell everyone I need some air and then you can come check on me."

"That sounds like an excellent plan," Regina said with a small smirk.

Emma leaned in to give Regina a kiss then made her way out of the tent. She wondered what they were going to do when they got home. As the list of possibilities grew in her mind, the fewer clothes she and Regina wore. Emma hoped they would be able to make it to their honeymoon.

Henry had no idea where his moms were. One minute they had been there and the next minute they were gone. His grandma had told him that Emma had gone out to get some air which was no huge surprise to Henry, she didn't do well with huge gatherings, but his mom wouldn't have just left. She cared too much about appearances, or she would have at least told him that they were leaving. The frown on her Henry's face worsened.

"They skipped out," Jake said behind him.

"Skipped out?" Henry asked as he turned around.

Jake nodded as he took a bite of the cake that was on his plate. He chewed it up then said, "Yep. Ruby saw them leave and she didn't want to call them out because it's their wedding day." Henry sighed. He thought they would at least say goodbye to him before they left. Jake moved closer to him then held up a forkful of cake and Henry continued to pout. "Eat the cake, Henry. It'll make you feel better. Also don't look so sad. They should be able to spend some time alone and if they left for their honeymoon then that's okay too. They'll be back in a few days."

Henry glowered at him but then he ate the cake off the fork. Jake grinned at him then gave his cheek a kiss before he whispered, "You're adorable. Come on, let's go help your grandparents with shutting this thing down. Then you, Mr. Swan-Mills, will be taking me for a walk on the beach."

Henry couldn't help the stupid grin that came to his face. That idea had him forgiving his moms for leaving without saying goodbye, but even then he was happy they were happy. When he was younger all he wanted was for them to get along, but this was even better. Henry took hold of Jake's hand and asked, "So wanna bet on when I'll get a younger brother or sister?"

Jake chuckled then replied, "No, because I'm certain it won't be long before you have one." He shook his head. "Your family is so weird but I like it."

Henry smiled at him and said, "It is but I wouldn't have it any other way." He gave Jake's cheek a quick kiss then the two of them made their way back into the tent so that they could help with clean up and winding down the reception. It had been a good day for the family and Henry determined that it would only get better from here on out.
