' L'amour de Paris' ; The Regina Mills Story

Chapter One

The bright flashes covered the hole whole aisle, shouting of the press from every corner, "Regina Mills over here...","Can we get a shot of the back of the dress?", "Beautiful, hold that shot..".

It's every writers dream to be well known on the industry, Regina Mills book is the number one best seller and she is getting all of the massive attention of the press, that she ever prepare for, not to mentioned interviews from one show to another asking question after question, the last one of the day from channel six was live and in action, "'You have made it to the writers dream toping the number one best seller, " 'L' amour de Paris' witch means, "The love for Paris", 'Can you tell us a little of what is it about and what got you inspired to write such an amazing love story?', Regina always hesitated to answer that inspiration question, lacing her digits wile pressing her lips as she looks everywhere but the interviewer to end up with the same answer she uses in all her interviews, "Well.. is about two different type of woman who started a friendship, they are exchange students witch both shared an ambition but something unexpected happen...and you will just have to buy the book and find out..." she winks at the interviewer playfully, sharing a little laugh with it as she continues, "As for the inspiration all I can say is a true writer never reveal is secrets..." ending it with a playful laugh as she places her dark locks behind her ear, it was a habit out of having her nerves rattle.

Lights and camera were shut down when the interview ended. The middle age man with a white moustache extended his hand wile saying, "Thank you Miss. Mills for joining us today." as he touches and shakes her hand gently, offering a cheesy smile wile add it.

Regina wears a stunning black dress with a open back showing her nice well toned body, Red lipstick and red shoes were part of her go to style, her bright smile that never disappoints as she shakes the man's hand, "Thank you for having me..."

The man gives her a nod with a small smile, stepping out of the stage as she does to herself. Regina walks towards her dressing room, dying to get comfortable, it was a long flight from New York to California and she was hopping to catch some sleep on the plane.

She opens the door and is surprised by this handsome man, all suited up, clean cut, and white pail skin, he looks wealthy, well is because he is, somebody had to invest in doubleling that promotion on the book and he was responsible for it, with flowers in hand and wide smile, "Congratulations my love... I was dying to see you..."

Regina raises her tone of voice a little higher out of excitement, "Daniel!,! I can't believe you're here...!", she hugs him tight, he has been incredible to her, not to mentioned helping Regina with her carrier, as a writer besides going on his business trips he always tried to be around as much possible. The woman places the flowers in the makeup counter wile she quickly takes off her heels, she looks shorter now, less authoritive, more innocent.

Daniel settle himself in the black couch, looking a little concern with what he is about to say, lacing his fingers as he tries to speak his discomfort gently wile she takes off her makeup, "Regina, I got an offer to work in London, is triple that what I get pay here in the States...".

Regina without giving much though looks exited, eyes grows wide, she knows how much he wanted this, is something he worked for so long, his family business have been successful for years and expanding towards London would be a plus, she hugs him tight, "Congratulations, you got it!,! I'm so proud of you".

When the hug is break by Regina, Daniel looks more concern then excited, taking a small breath and rubbing his neck as he speaks his concern, wile he walks back to the couch, "But you'll be on tour, I hardly see you right now, how we are going to manage not seeing each other for so long?...?"."

Regina grows concern, it's true, how is this going to workout if they have to basically move mountains so they'll be able have a day for themselves, she rubs his shoulders trying to sooth and assure wile whispering for only him to hear, "Everything is going to be fine...,... we will work it out, we always do..."

They pair shared a smile, Daniel grabs Regina's hands as he looks at her dark eyes, "I will be able to go to your first event with your young fans, is your first time meeting any in an actual convention for it and I want to be there for you..."."

The sweetness in his voice can make any woman melt and Regina is know different, making her eyes glassy as she makes a funny comment about the event, "I can't believe people actually pay just for me to sign a book, and the amount, I feel the least I can do is to take them all to dinner or..something".

Daniel laughs at the though of his wife taking 2,000 people to dinner, just by her unique ways of thinking make him love her even more, "Love, this is a job like any other job you get paid for your profession, this is your way to make a living. If it's easier for you think of it as a value of your talent, a talent you work so hard for". Wile the man talks, Regina can't take her eyes of him, just staring at him with so much caring in her eyes as Daniel continues, "I still remember the long hours you spend writing that book, the late nights nights you will sit for long hours just because is when you felt most inspired..and inspired. And I got to say, you have a great imagination love, it's s a great story...Is not even half as good as ours, I'm jealous..."

Regina look towards the side, if only he knew is not entirely made up but a pass she refused to remember, she quickly explains, "That's because it isn't real love, ours is, love is difficult and...we fight for it everyday..."

Daniel closes the gap between them and gives her a sweet kiss, eyes clothes as Regina breathes out the nerves. The man breaks the kiss and adds, "That we do..."

A week later

Tables were set, the volunteers of "Gold Publishers" were getting ready to receive two thousand people today. Meet and Greets were set for a couple of famous writers such as J.K Rowling, E.L James, Stephanie Meyer and others. But the highlight of the event was indeed Regina Mills. As bloggers scattered the place asking questions to fans such as 'Who is your favorite writer and why the interest in meeting her/him?"." The event was filled more by teens and young adults witch most of them answered with, "I'm here to meet Regina Mills, she is so hot and her book is amazing!"," others said, "There's something about her that encourages you to be yourself, I came out to my parents thanks to her book and her..."," others comment, "She has a hot husband but I get the vibe she's an open minded person because of her book..."," "I have never read such amazing lesbian novel till' now..". And many other comments more were made until she finally steps in sight where the fans can cheer from the line.

Daniel was joining her, two staff member and her public manager Robert Lockley was assuring everything was fine. Regina was throwing kisses and I love you to her amazing fans, as so she called them. She sits in front of the table were they had a pack of her books for promotion and markers, she feels excited, of course she has never experience this before, Daniel sits next to the woman as whispers in her ear, "Are you ok..?"

Regina smiles sweetly as she looks into the man's eyes wile answering, "More the ok, do you see how long is that line, they want to see me, and excited to meet me, I just never felt so much...love from so many people..."."

Daniel caress her hair as he says, "What's not to love, you're amazing and beautiful inside and out..."." As they share a peck the crowd makes and "Aw..."," while waiting inline. Daniel grabs Regina's hand as they wait for fans to pass.

Robert approaches Regina, he squats down between the two love birds as he ask, "Is almost time to let the fans past, now. Remember Regina, you need to be short, there's a lot of people who want to meet you today and you can't engaged to much into a conversation, we have meet and greets with higher prices for that, no hugging or kissing and no taking pictures, this is just for them to get your signature say hi and leave, ok?"

Regina gets the gut feeling of guilt, the tickets for the signature where already expensive, the meet and greet was insanely pricey, growing up with not so much money in her pocket made her grounded and more humble that other in her position would take for granted. She simply noted and say, "I'll do my best..."." Robert tilt his head in agreement and moved to get things ready for the lady, as Daniel decided to give the woman one good luck kiss and step away and appreciate everything backstage.

Teens and adults started coming in, tearing up with excitement coming out of the line screaming and shouting, "I finally got to meet Regina Mills, she sign my book and she said she loved me too..."." As the line passes Regina grows more excited, engaging more with the fans, making jokes, and making them blushed by her complements. One in particular ask for a selfie, "Please Regina, this is probably the only time I'll meet you, I came all the way from Australia..."," Of course Regina couldn't say no, she has a heart of gold under that tough looking face, after that everyone wanted a selfie.

Robert was pissed, God he was pissed . pissed. He approaches Regina in front front of the fans, he turns to her with a disappointed and somewhat angry tone his English accent still very marked and proper, "I told you, no selfies, no hugging or "I told you, no selfies, no hugging or kissing, I have good reason why I have these rules place with my clients and you're giving to much".

Regina grows angry lifting an eyebrow, she was dead serious and annoyed by being scolded like a six year old, "Need I remained you, Locksley my husband pays you to manage my business, not to tell me what to do with my fans or not, I am a grown woman and If I want to kiss and hug every single fan here I will, so please get out of my way if you don't want to loose a client..."

Robert roles his eyes and simply ends the conversation with, "Do as you please, don't say I didn't warn you...". He walks behind the curtains where Daniel and everything behind the scenes take place. Regina notices he was talking to her husband and the concern face was showing, making her look down and lick her lips out of nervousness, Regina continue to show appreciation towards the fans. Some fan girls would thank her for helping them come out to their parents, friends and everyone without shame, Regina couldn't be happier by hugging the woman and girls tight whispering "I'm so proud of you...", her though of not having the option herself made her sad and distracted when memories of her pass started to comeback.

Regina takes a glance at Daniel witch he was starting at her, looking all proud of the woman he has by his side, he mouthers, "You ok..?"

Regina smiles and nods as she turns to continue attending fans, When people started noticing how flexible she was they started to touch and pull, Regina started to feel uncomfortable, side eyeing some girls trying to get a hold of her rear, because oh my goodness those black skinny jeans can't be more tight.

When the line is about to end, Regina feeling the tingling sensation in her hand, the pain is starting to set, she wasn't as bubbly as before, eyes showing exhaustion begging for rest. When a brunette, skinny, with a hippie look girl approaches the table and went on babbling how in love she was with her, Regina was giggling wile she sign, it was rather uncomfortable how forward she was being but it didn't concern her that much, when she looks up, the girl just grabs her face and gives the woman a kiss in the lips.

Regina wasn't expecting it, pushing the girl in shock by her action. Daniel and Robert came out as soon as they saw the action take place, Robert shouting at the volunteers present, "Get her out of here..now. Now!" while Daniel hold the woman tight towards him. The hippie girl was grabbed by two volunteers and walked out of the building, the girl didn't look disappointed or regretful one bit,!, repeating and shouting "I kiss Regina on the lips!...! hah!".

Regina Mills finish the rest of the signing quiet, shy and insecure even though her husband decided to sit right next to her for assurance, when she was done she exited the event, go on the service car were Daniel and herself shared a back seat. She didn't speak once, Daniel grows concern and holds her left hand making her startled a little and turn towards the man, his soothing tone always makes it all better, "I'm sorry for what it happened, I know kissing a woman is not exactly your cup a tea. We will talk about in the hotel..."

Regina shows a side smile out of gratefulness, he is always trying to make the best out of the worst situation, she nods and continues to look at the window, loosing herself in though. She felt stupid and naive, repeating to herself, I should have listen to Robert and acted more professional, this is not exactly a family reunion Regina, is a fan reunion who are terribly obsessed over you, she thinks as the car continue to move towards their destination.

Daniel was preparing some coffee wile his wife enjoys a long steamy shower, as she comes out in a white thin towel, no makeup and hair semi wet. He approaches her with a cup., "I made you coffee. Feeling better?"

Regina licks her lips after pulling back her wet locks, "Yes, Thank you". She takes a sip wile she stares at the man in front of her. Daniel graciously touches her cheeks, stroking his thump gently while she melts by his touch, looking down as she goes for a hug he says, "You're just so beautiful..."." He grabs her hand and leads her towards the room, as he starts to kiss her, his tongue begging for entrance, Regina shuts the light off, Daniel turns it on with a questionable look, "Is been 5 years and you never want to make love with the light on, why is that Regina?. I mean, you have told me is insecurity issues and I respect that, but Regina you're perfect in my eyes..."

Regina looks around the room feeling a little nervous, "I really have to work on it but... ok let's give a try..."," As she continues to kiss his neck and Daniel helps her get undress, she was laid gently on the bed.

Daniel lays naked on top of the woman wile she looks a little nervous, he quickly assures, "If it's to much for you I'll turn the light off...", Lips turning to half a smile, trying to convince the man she is not uncomfortable in any form, but she was, she really was.

Regina sweetly says, "Is fine dear...". Daniel continues to kiss her neck wile her eyes turn glassy, she questions in her thoughts, why is it so difficult to have sex with Daniel, she loved him right? and is not that he is not attracted because his abs and well taken care of skin can't make him look more perfect, as he leads his cock inside of her, he finds her not as wet as usual, it hurts but she can take it, she needs to take it.

Daniel continues to go back an forth, but the feel is different, "Regina are you ok?..", she doesn't say a word and simply nods trying to at least look motivated but it's not entirely convincing, he continues to speak, "Is just... You don't seem into it love. I can switch the light off if you really want to..".

Regina breaks down, she pushes him away and turns to the side, "I'm sorry, I'm.. I don't know what's wrong with me...I..." she hides her face in the pillow wile Daniel tries to comfort her. In the back of her mind she knows what is the problem, she knows what is keeping her to have sex with her husband for five years with the light on, it has always been a problem, with the lights shut she can close her eyes and she can loose herself in a fantasy, lights makes her face reality, a reality that she does not want to live.

Daniel holds her tight, "Regina it happens, we just need to take it slow ok, Is nothing to be ashamed of", He strokes his hands on her arms trying to sooth the woman ending it with a sweet kiss in the shoulder, "We will work it out, we always do. Now, tomorrow I have to get up early, maybe is best we just went to sleep ok?".

She whispers an "Ok...", As the man shuts the lights off and goes to the bathroom to get rid off his erection, she felt awful as a wife, the worst but he was so understanding and willing to always try to make it work it made her less worried of the situation. As he comes out she ask, "What you have to this morning?".

Daniel cuddles up close to the woman, "Something very important, you'll see tomorrow, I've been working on this for weeks, now go to sleep. You need your rest...", As they both dozed off out exhaustion it was a long event and Regina was very tired, she was sound asleep in seconds.

Next Morning

The alarm went off at 10 a.m., as she quickly extends her hand to shut the alarm off, Regina does a big stretch and turns to see there was breakfast in bed. Egg whites and spinach with some honey bread toast and a lovely flower on the side in company of a little note. She picks it up to read, "I am currently working at that something important I told you about, I'll be back at noon and you'll see what it is..."

Regina cracks a smile, dammit can't he be more caring, and yes she feels guilty on having him to jerk off in the bathroom because she couldn't deal feeling him inside, but it's 10 am and she knows she is slow at getting dress and ready, Regina quickly hits the showers as she thinks of what to wear and what is Daniel up to, intrigue on what could it be, searching for options in her brain, a trip to Hawaii just them too sounds nice, after the tour is ended or maybe a cruise..? She laughs at herself and says, "Calm down Regina. You will find out soon".

12 P.M Lunch Time

The sound of the door opening made her question, "Daniel are you there..?"," as she fix up her hair a little more to the side, her royal blue dress hugging her thighs, her perky glutes looking amazing in her tight style, as she places her red lipstick gently on her lips she waits for the man to answer.

"Yes love, I have something for you, is something that would benefit your well being on the tour..." Daniel says with a cheery voice, he places the paper bags full with healthy food on the table, because Regina doesn't eat anything besides a salad at this time of day.

Daniel invites the woman to sit but she answers with a dismiss wave of her hand, "That's ok, I prefer to stand, thank you..." between teeth, she finishes the sentence for Daniel not to hear, "specially for this..."

Regina comes out with a glass of wine in her hands wile saying, "Sorry I was finishing getting ready", as soon as she looks at the blonde woman standing in front of her Regina turns pail, so pail she could make Casper the friendly ghost look tanned, mouth turning dry as her glass of wine slips through her fingertips.

Black eyes meeting green eyes again, a few seconds of silence in the room, the blonde responded with calmness, no showing any emotion, Ignoring the fact that a shattered glass was in the middle and Daniel was standing freeze in confusion and about to question his wife reaction, but before all that. The beautiful, tall blonde woman wearing her usual leggings and white tank top extends her hand,

"Emma Swan, Is a pleasure to meet you..."
