Sorry for the shortness and the ending. I wasn't really happy with it but it needed to be rounded off, hope it was okay...
Chapter 3
Sat patiently beside the sleeping blonde's bed, Regina peers down towards their son within her arms, taking in every hair and freckle she could see. Lifting his hand with her finger, the brunette kisses it gently before reaching across for Emma's hand in the hopes that she will wake up soon. Luckily, Whale was able to secure the bleed and prevent any further complications which meant the woman was going to be just fine.
Inhaling deeply, Emma begins to wake then tilts her head to the side at the touch of someone holding her hand. Frowning slightly, the blonde tries to find her voice. "..Madam..Mayor.." Clearing her throat, she tries again. "What...what are you still doing here..." Realising the small bundle in the brunette's arms, Emma's eyes widen slightly. "Is..Henry okay?.."
Smiling down at the boy mesmerised, Regina responds quietly while still holding the blonde's hand. "He's beautiful..perfect..just like his mother.."
Waking up more at the revelation, the blonde blinks in disbelief while moving to sit up. "..Regina?.."
Letting go of Emma's hand, the brunette places it on the woman's arm. "Don't move. We both need you well to come home.." Seeing the sad look in the blonde's eyes, the Mayor gives a smile. "Yes Emma..I remember everything.."
Getting teary, the blonde bites her lip, prompting Regina to lean over and kiss her for reassurance. "Everything's going to be okay now. You're home and despite the circumstances, I am grateful that I was there for you and Henry when you gave birth even if I didn't know who you were..because deep down I never thought I'd see you ever again, let alone meet our son"
Gripping the woman's hand again, Emma nods understanding. "That's why I came back as soon as I found out. Hook told me that no one knew who they were and I'm the 'savior'..."
"You saved me. You gave me Henry and that is how I remembered, because of our love we got him" shifting on her seat, the brunette passes Henry over carefully to the blonde's arms and watches in awe at the look Emma gives the boy upon taking him.
"Hey little guy..sorry if I scared you but I promise mommy is not going anywhere..and neither is your mama" sharing an adoring look with the Mayor, the blonde kisses the baby's head once again.

Holding the front door to the mansion open, Regina guides Emma inside while holding onto Henry's car seat. "Okay careful.."
Chuckling slightly, the blonde walks in slowly. "Regina I'm not going to break..."
Playfully glaring, the brunette leads her girlfriend towards the living room. "Humour me please?"
Holding her hands up in surrender, Emma sits down on the couch then grins as Regina places the car seat in front of her so she can take Henry out. Laying back with the boy rested on her shoulder with only a small fuss before relaxing, the blonde looks towards the brunette who is storing some of her belongings away. "So what exactly is the plan now? With getting everyone else's memories back?"
"Oh I don't think that will be a problem dear.." Smiling to herself, the Mayor looks up upon hearing the front door open and a rush of footsteps making their way towards the living room.
"Emma?!"
Watching as Snow rushes towards her daughter, Regina's eyes widen as she quickly takes Henry from the blonde to save the boy from being squashed within their hug. Frowning, the blonde hugs back while looking up between her girlfriend and David stood to the side. "You remember? How?"
Rubbing her son's back soothingly while giving him a small rock, Regina smirks. "Well dear it would appear whoever had done this had forgotten that it was me that created the first memory loss with the first curse and therefore I knew exactly how to get their memories back. The only problem at the time was that I didn't have my own memories until this little one came along..."
"You did it.." Releasing from her mother's grip, Emma smiles as the short haired woman sits beside her.
Glancing up towards the Mayor, Snow holds her arms out. "Now give me my grandson. We have lost time"
Sniggering, the brunette moves forward and hands Henry towards Snow before sitting on the opposite side of Emma and taking her hand, automatically linking their fingers. Peering over his wife's shoulder, David grins. "He looks like both of you...there is no denying he's yours"
"Oh believe me, there is no denying when you have given birth to him" the blonde replies before looking apologetic at her father's cringe.
Stroking the blonde's hair back, Regina kisses her cheek then watches their son sleeping peacefully in his grandmothers arms. Glancing down towards their joined hands briefly, the brunette cannot help but think that there is something missing on Emma's hand which she would need to fix now that the woman she loves was home.
A ring.
