“That’s understandable, we never get visitors. Where are you from originally?” She briefly remembered being told about her, although she found it strange that she had invited this girl to the town, never meeting her before. “Yes, it is a lovely town, but you know you could get sick of it after awhile. But, hi Steph. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Emerson. And I hope you enjoy your stay. I imagine you’ll be staying with her? Or are you staying at Granny’s?”

“I’m originally from Vermont but, I moved to New York a few summers back right before I started classes at NYU.” She said with a small smile as she adjusted the strap of her bag on her shoulder. “It’s lovely to meet you, Emerson and you’ve got a pretty name by the way. Oh yeah, thank you I’m sure I will.” She lightly bit her bottom lip as she remembered the reason why she left New York in such a hurry although, her mind was quickly distracted as the place of where she was going to stay arose. Her eyebrows furrowed together as she looked around the town. “That’s a very good question.. Is there like a motel anywhere around? I don’t wanna impose on staying with her at such a short notice.”

“Yeah, we’re kind of off the maps you know? It’s hard to find it, but not that many people come through here, so it’s understandable why your GPS did that. And speaking of new comers, what are you doing here? Sorry that sounded kind of rude, I’m just curious”

“Yeah I kinda noticed that when I stopped at a small gas station just to see if I was going the right way and the clerk looked at me like I was some kind of lost mental patient. It’s quite strange, don’t ya think? I mean this town is so small but, it’s so beautifully designed who wouldn’t want to be here? Oh yeah sorry, my names Stephanie but, I go by Steph. I’m just in town visiting Lexie for a few days.”

Lexie & Steph || First Meeting

The curse was finally broken a few days earlier, with the memory of every resident in the small town called Storybrooke returning after 28 years, minus the town’s mayor. However, despite everyone’s memories returning, life still remained normal.

Lexie, the daughter of the mayor, was putting her hours in at work. The young Latina worked at the local diner as a waitress alongside Ruby, who was the owner’s granddaughter. Despite the two being ages apart, both women got along so well and often helped each other with their shifts. The day was very busy, as usual. Serving a few customers, including her sister, brother-in-law, niece and her younger brother, it kept the young girl busy. She would do anything to make money, no matter if it was working or volunteering. Lexie loved helping people.

As a hour passed, she kept herself occupied by cleaning tables as customers left the diner while talking to her family. At that moment, the door swung opened and in came a unfamiliar face to everyone, but a familiar face to her. With a gasp, she squealed and approached the girl. “Stephanie!” She screamed loudly, not caring who was watching as she hugged her best friend whom she met online through online classes. Pulling away, she smiled excitedly. “Oh my god, what are you doing here?”

Stephanie was in one of those ‘fuck it’ moods and decided she needed to take a little break from her normal life, just a small vacation to get her head back on straight and thinking clearly. She had just got off the phone with of what seems like her ex for the 3rd time now and the girl couldn’t handle much more so instead of laying around her apartment crying and stuffing her face with ice cream, she packed a bag, got in her car and headed to Maine to finally meet her online best friend.

As the short black haired girl drove continuously for 5 hours straight, her eyes strayed from the road to glance at the radio that clearly read 9:45 pm when she was finally greeted by the ‘Welcome To Storybrooke’ sign. Her pale cold fingers gradually clenched the steering wheel closer as she drove into town. There was barely anyone out on the streets and Lexie never told her how to even go about getting to her house from the town’s entrance. She noticed quite a bit of people coming in and out of what looked to be a diner and she remembered the brunette mentioning she was a waitress, so Steph parked along the curb and took the keys out of the ignition as she exited the Mercedes.

Fixing her black leather jacket, she gracefully opened the door and just as both of her feet were successfully through the doorway she was excitedly greeted with a pair of arms wrapped around her torso. She couldn’t help but laugh as she hugged the thin body back and as the two separated, she lightly shrugged her shoulders looking at the girl as her hands stuffed back in her jacket pockets. “I - I really don’t know to be honest. I had another little fight with him again and I just said fuck it, I’m coming to see you for a couple of days.” She said with a small smile, her eyes glancing at the many pairs that seemed to be glued to the two girls.

“After passing, of what seemed like the billionth ‘Dead End’ road sign and 3 large cups of coffee later, I’m finally greeted by the ‘Welcome To Storybrooke’ sign. I was almost beginning to think this place didn’t even exist since my GPS kept trying to redirect me back to the city.”
