Regina laid in the tub, resting her head back on the bath pillow enjoying the feel of the warm, scented water and of course the bubbles. She had been looking forward to this relaxing bath all day. Henry was staying at a friend's house and all she wanted was her bath, a book and a couple of glasses of wine.
The sound of her doorbell interrupted her peace.
There was no way she was getting out of the bath to answer it. She wasn't expecting anyone. If there had been an issue with Henry, she would have gotten a call.
Absolutely nothing was going to get her out of this porcelain cocoon.
The doorbell rang three more times, but all she did was take a sip of wine and pressed the volume up on her controller to her ipod dock.
When Regina didn't answer the door, Emma got worried. She knew Regina was home, so why wasn't she answering? She even knocked, but got no response. There were clearly lights on in the house.
She walked around to the back of the house. Henry had once told her that Regina kept a hide-a-key out there because Henry had on occasion locked himself out. She got the key from its spot under a stepping stone and used it to let herself in.
"Regina?" she called out. No response. She moved through the kitchen and when she got to the staircase to the upstairs she heard music.
She walked upstairs using the music as a guide.
If someone had stopped her right then and there she would have been hard pressed to explain what she was doing. Even as she got to the door that she assumed was Regina's bedroom she had no reasoning for her actions.
She slipped in and saw another door off of the bedroom. There was flickering light coming from the open door — candles she reasoned. The music was coming from in there too.
She slowly walked to it until Regina came into view. Rather a bubble covered Regina came into view. The suds just barely covered her chest up to her breasts, but those were on full display. Her eyes raked down from them trying to catch any other view of flesh.
"Miss Swan, can I help you with something?" Regina asked as if she wasn't surprised to see her there.
"Um … I … you … um …"
"Eloquent as always Miss Swan."
"You are naked," Emma said unable to look away from Regina's breasts to look her in the eyes.
"People tend to be naked when taking baths."
"I suppose so."
"Again Miss Swan, can I help you with something?"
"I don't know."
"Well maybe since you are here, you can help me with something. I could use someone to scrub my back," she said moving forward in the tub.
