My first stab at Swan Queen, I am a strong Swan Queen shipper and I am rooting for them to FINALLY grow a pair and quite the eye sex and just get on with it! Mainly Swan Queen – it will be a slow burn for obvious reason – there will maybe be a tiny bit of Red Swan at the start (because I think it would have been cute to see them together and seeing Regina get all jealous!) which will progress to a strong friendship. Red Beauty shall also be included. Please read, review but most importantly ENJOY! ALSO – For now – they'll be NO HENRY!


"Wow, you look, interesting!" a brunette haired woman said as she set a cup of coffee in form of a young blonde woman.

"Thanks, I've had a rough day"

"I'm Ruby by the way" the waitress said extending her hand,

"Emma, Emma Swan" the blonde smiled as she shook Ruby's hand, "and as for this" Emma said motioning to her face, "bounty gone wrong" Emma said with a small laugh,

"You're a bounty hunter?" Ruby asked intrigued, Emma smiled and shook her head,

"No, Bails Bonds person" Emma smiled, Ruby made an 'o' and smiled, "so eh, Ruby, does this place have anywhere to sleep?" Emma asked taking a sip of her coffee, Ruby smiled widely and nodded,

"as a matter of fact it does, there's a B&B just down the street, and eh, it's family run" Ruby says with a small wink, Emma smiled and blushed slightly, "my shift finishes in about twenty minutes, I'll escort you" Ruby said with a smile, Emma nodded and then moved over to one of the booths and looked out the window, she didn't hear the bell that signalling a new customer, "Madam Mayor, the usual?" Ruby asked rubbing down the counter,

"Obviously Ms Lucas, isn't that what I USUALLY order" Regina said with a bite, causing Emma to look up rather stunned, Regina could feel eyes on her and turned her head, she couldn't help but gasp, 'no, it can't be' Regina thought to herself, she let her eyes wander the blonde woman sitting in the booth, her breath caught when she realized who she was looking at, 'oh my darling, oh my sweet Emma' Regina though keeping the tears that was welling up from falling, "can I get an apple turnover with that to sit in also" Regina said over her shoulder as she made her way to the booth Emma was in, "May I?" Regina asked, Emma smiled and nodded, Regina smiled and sat across from the blonde, "I'm Regina Mills, I'm the mayor of this town" Regina said extending her hand,

"Emma Swan and eh, I'm just passing through" Emma said with a wide smile, 'you are even more beautiful my love, oh how you've grown' Regina thought but couldn't help the anger that was rising at the bruising that covered most of the blonde's left side of her face, 'and whoever laid a hand on you shall pay' Regina said suppressing a growl, Emma shook Regina's hand in her own, both women gasped at the electric current that ran up their arms that made them pull back, Emma looked at the Regina wide eyed and was about to say something when,

"Here you go Madam Mayor" Ruby said as she sat a cup of coffee and an apple turn over in front of Regina, "you ready Emma?" Ruby asked as she untied her apron, Emma smiled and nodded,

"It was lovely to meet you Madam Mayor" Emma said, Regina shook her head,

"Please, call me Regina, and it was lovely to meet you too, Emma" Regina said extending her hand to the blonde for the second time, Emma smiled and gladly accepted it before following Ruby out of the diner. Regina left the diner ten minutes later with a smile on her face, she turned her head at the most beautiful sound, "You'll remember soon my darling, I promise" Regina said as she made her way to her car.
