[ She hadn't even thought of twins, and she thinks at any other point in time that would have worried her. Double the babies, double the threat. She can just imagine a time in her life where she would have thought Regina would come for one and Rumplestiltskin would come for the other. But now there's none of that, and Snow just smiles brightly at David, wrapping her arms around his neck. ]

Two girls, maybe. It doesn't matter; a house full of love. That's what I care about.

[ Her lips meet his in a tender kiss, one she gets lost in before she hears Neal begin babbling out loud from upstairs. It makes Snow sigh in absolute contentment. ]

I love that sound. He's so happy, David.

[ Thank Gods he's so young he'll never remember all those times he almost died. ]

[The bittersweet is still there. Though it's more sweet than anything else these days. They can't change the past, however much they might want to and all there's left to do is treasure the moments they have now. To make new memories to replace the bad ones. Raise their little boy and watch their daughter maybe start another family with her new husband.

Wilby gets up from his spot in the corner while they're still entangled and runs up the stairs to their little man's nursery, like Neal is one of the sheep that he's tasked with protecting. There's a special bond between a boy and his dog. Sometimes David will catch them napping together while he works.]

I should teach him to change Neal's diaper too, [commented wryly as he untangles himself from Snow.]

Finish the eggs, I'll take care of him.

You know, there's probably something magical Emma could do to help with diaper changes.

[ Snow isn't serious - or is she - and she goes back to the eggs, finishing breakfast so it'll be ready by the time David comes back down. The baby monitor's off because they've been downstairs and awake to hear Neal, but now she turns the audio on, just to hear the morning chatter of her husband and son. If Neal's babbling made her happy before, it's nothing compared to hearing both of them together. Honestly, that alone could get her pregnant.

By the time they come down, breakfast is on the table, there's a flower in a vase, and Snow's already cleaning the skillets they used so it's all done and taken care of. They're so damn domestic. ]
