Emma was bored beyond belief as she sat through the village council meeting. She knew has sheriff she should probably pay more attention but this bureaucratic back and forth on topics made her want to take a 10-year nap.
The council, with Regina as mayor, sitting in the center was listening to a petition from one of the newcomers to Storybrooke. With the second curse being cast it brought more people back with them, which had brought up a multitude of issues. Regina had taken control of the situation after the mess with her sister Zelena, proving that while she made herself mayor the first time around it was a role she was actually suited for.
This new person – Emma hadn't caught her name — was a younger woman, good looking Emma thought. She had no idea who she was in the fairy tale world or this one for that matter. She was making a pitch to council about garbage collection, or so Emma though, as she had stopped paying attention a long time ago.
She took note of the woman's jeans – slim cut, very form fitting. If nothing else this new curse had brought some more women into town, and Emma as perfectly ok with that. Although she had yet to experience any of the women. The first time around, she had simply been too busy adjusting to being there, being a mom and constantly battling with Regina. Then in New York she had forgotten all about all of that stuff but had only dated men. It's not like she wasn't in to men as well – she had a fair appreciation for both sexes – but she couldn't help but wonder if she had only dated men because it was Regina who gave her that life and memories. Maybe Regina, thinking she was straight, had imprinted that in her psyche somewhere.
Of course, she could just be over thinking it too.
Plus she still had whole load of complications. Number one being her parents not knowing. She wasn't ashamed of it, she just hadn't really found a good time to tell them. Henry knew – damn kid had caught her checking our Ruby's ass pretty early on—so that wasn't an issue. Ruby knew only because she had caught Emma checking her out and when Emma badly denied it, she had finally caved in order to find out from Ruby how different sexuality was viewed in their home land. Emma was reassured by the answer which was essentially no really cared because it was kind of rare but still no one cared.
But she was also the sheriff so she felt like she couldn't just jump into bed with random women – at least not a lot of them.
She was still thinking about it when the meeting finally broke off. She stood to stretch and saw the pretty young woman approach Regina and give her a piece of paper. A petition maybe, Emma didn't really know. As the woman walked away though, Emma's eyes got wider – Regina was certainly not looking at the woman's petition – unless she thought there were signatures on her ass.
Holy fuck, Emma thought, Regina just checked that woman out. She recognized that look in Regina's eyes, it was hunger.
Well, well Madame Mayor, Emma thought, things are about to get interesting.
