Hey there reader, I've decided to try a completely different approach to Swanqueen; hoping it'll seem sorta convincing? IDK but I hope you like it anyways ^.^

Prologue

Emma and Regina Swan-Mills are the couple that every person in Storybrooke envies. The relationship that every person wants, but only some could get; as it's true love. Sure everyone has a true love, but not every person will ever meet them, so they settle for what they can get.

They met because of their kid, stealing his teacher's bank card and traveling from Maine to Boston to find his birth mum.

Emma and Regina have been together 6 years now and have never been happier.

After being together 2 years, Regina proposed.

Emma came home after a busy day at the station and opened the front door to Henry stood there with a glass of wine on a tray. "Hi mum, can you follow me? I got told to give you this" Henry said, handing her the glass of red wine.

"Thanks, kid, what's going on?"

"Follow me and you'll find out. I swore to secrecy."

"Okay kid, at least tell me where we're going?"

"Sure, I can tell you that. We are going... This way" he said with a smirk on his face.

They walked through the hall, kitchen and sitting room to the patio in the garden. On the table was a note.

'My darling Emma. I'm quite nervous, so to find me you must solve the following riddle.

You'll find me where something runs but never walks, often murmurs but never talks, has a bed but never sleeps and has a mouth yet never eats. Come to find me, my love.

Xoxo, Regina. Yours always and forever.'

She thought for a second, and then her head shot up.

"You alright mum?"

"Yeah kid, I'm good. Tryna figure out this riddle, its hard, I don't really get-WAIT! THE RIVER"

Henry just smiled as a response. "See you later mum, have fun"

"Wait, where are you staying when I go then, kid?"

"To Gran and Gramps, its already arranges. They're picking me up in 15 mins. Thought it would take you longer to figure it out."

"Thanks for the vote of confidence, kid. See you later"

"Bye, MISS Swan"

Emma just left, thoroughly confused

"Miss Swan?" Emma muttered under her breath whilst driving to the river by the toll bridge. When she got there a short drive later, she got out the car and walked towards it. When closer, she saw some candles and a picnic blanket and Regina, only from the back.

"Thought I'd arrive the other way then?"

Regina swung around, and her face lit up seeing her girlfriend. "Hello, mi amour. How was your day?" she asked taking her hand and kissing it.

"It wasn't great but seeing all this makes me forget about all of that. Whats the special occasion?"

"Well, I was hoping-" she walked back to the picnic blanket and leant down, then turned back around towards Emma.

"Emma, When I first saw you I knew I was under your spell. In the space of 2 years, suddenly your the only person I want to see before I go to the sleep, and the only person I want to see when I wake up. Your the only person who's seen the true me and fought for her to stay. You're the person who makes my life worth living. When I realized that I wanted to speand the rest of my life with you, and not a day without you, I wanted the rest of my life to hurry up. When I look at you, I see your hands without anything on them. If you'd let me, I want to change that. I want to speand the rest of my life with you. Emma Swan. Will you marry me?" Regina pulled out a ring box and opened it. Inside was a simple white gold ring, with a small purple band through the middle.

"Regina it's beautiful. Of course, I'd marry you. Yes!"

Regina beamed and slid the ring onto Emma's finger. "I love you, my gorgeous Fiancee"

Emma smiled. "I love you too, my soon to be wife"

Even though that as 4 years ago, it felt like yesterday to both of them.
