I’m not worried. We know as the audience that Neal is alive but Emma doesn’t. And really connected True Love, like Snow and Charming, when Snow ate the poisonous apple, Charming felt that and knew that something horrible happened to her. Emma thinks that Neal is dead. If it was real True Love b/t Emma and Neal, and since we know Emma is magical, she would have known that Neal is in fact alive.
I hope that makes sense.
