Author’s Notes: I'd always figured I'd end up writing in this fandom somehow. It had me sucked in from the pilot. Honestly, it had me sucked in from the preview commercials. LOL! I just thought I'd be writing some Emma/Regina first for this fandom. But I'm never one to turn down the option to do a little character study piece for any characters I like, so…

Dedication: My muses, for trying something new…

Beta: Not currently beta'd, so all mistakes are my own. I reserve the right to futz with this down the line when I get a beta to look at it.

"Choices"
By A. Magiluna Stormwriter

It wasn't a career she'd have gone into if she'd actually had a choice.

Growing up, she had all sorts of ideas of what she wanted to be when she was old enough to get a job and support herself. It wasn't like her parents were going to be all that supportive, especially after all hell broke loose for her.

She probably could have made a great cop, thanks to that Spidey sense she had for knowing when people were lying to her. Too bad her stint in jail kind of nipped that career option in the bud.

She vaguely considered going into bounty hunting. It was good money, but tended toward a little more safety issues than she cared for. Then again, the same could be said for her current job sometimes.

And now that Henry was in her life, however that worked out, she wanted to try something different. Then again, it was all thanks to Henry that she was able to become a cop. Well, taking Henry back to Storybrooke... And Graham's death.

The hours were certainly better. The pay was decent enough for her to live on. She just had to deal with that bitch of a mayor on a daily basis. But Henry, and a second chance at a real life, made up for it in the end.
