action!!

[ while mary margaret did find herself waiting for a reply, she wasn't surprised when the knock comes. the only people who have been by since...well. since. have been emma and henry (and lucky). and henry only recently. emma got to the point of knocking and walking in when no one would answer, because for a few days there mary margaret couldn't even get herself out of bed. but when she hears this knock, she knows it's different, and she pulls her sweater a little tighter around herself hoping it makes her seem a little more put together.

and opens the door.

she's convinced her heart shatters the moment she sees him, and she's only got a moment to whisper out oh honey before she's reaching out and wrapping her arms around his neck, stepping forward so she can just pull him against her chest, one of her hands on the back of his head. ]
