It was close to midnight on Christmas Eve, Emma had been stuffing Henry's stocking with an assortment of chocolates when she thought she saw someone standing by the tree. It had just been out of the corner of her eye and when she turned around no one was there. Midnight chimed and she went back to stuffing the stocking. After a moment she sensed something behind her again. This time she turned around very slowly, and when she did she saw him. Neal standing under the tree, a smile on his face. Even now he was still watching over them.
