I feel like I was gone forever.. Anyways here is this short story. It's going to be a compilation of small dribbles but they all connect with each other. We are going to get to see what living with Regina is like thanks to Emma!
I would appreciate reviews, even if is to tell me how much the story suck! Lots of love.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Entry one? Err.. Day 1
So it's been around six months which equals to 184 days, and 4,416 hours, since my biggest pain in the ass allowed me to move in with her. I mean I can't complain I have a house that has a roof and warm water, but man! She's a hardass. I'm not even kidding, I can't misplace my house keys without hearing about it. I mean I get it, I live with Regina Mills, Mayor and former Evil Queen, but does she really have to get so wordy about every single thing that I do that she does not approve off?
One thing is being her employ and a different one is being her housemate. I'm not sure if I should complain since I started living here I get to see Henry everyday, and I also get to enjoy homemade meals, for which I'm highly grateful. Regina is one if not the best cook I ever met. Every night she cooks dinner because God forbids Henry eats fast food. I see nothing wrong with having a heaven tasting grilled cheese with some hot cocoa or a greasy burger, but Regina insist that with Henry growing up he need nutrients, food that can actually provide him with vitamins, protein and blah blah blah.
I never had any of that growing up and look at me! I'm absolutely healthy and well who am I kidding, I am a hot piece of woman. Still no matter what my cons towards fast food are, Regina is the one to win, which I really, really have no problem since she's the one cooking.
Living in this mansion has probably been one of the highlights of living in Storybroke, there's cable, light, heater, ac, food, but most importably I get to annoy the living hell of Regina. Often when I get here after my shift I leave my boots by the entrance. I remember the first night I did it. I got the longest speech ever the next morning. Need I have to say it was only five am, when her Majesty decided to rudely enter my room, well basically her room since the house it's her, but anyway she was giving me the longest lesson about how much of a beast I am.
"Miss Swan, need I need to remind you that the entrance is not the place to leave your filthy boots" She said as she throw my perfect pair of black high boots to the floor. Ouch!
"Wha- Regina! What the hell" I screamed as I check the clock next to me in my night stand. "It's five sixteen in the morning, what's so important that couldn't wait?"
"Like I said, the entrance is not the place to leave your boots hanging around, if you had manners you would know" I just saw the smirk spread around her face, and I just knew what was coming next "Of course you don't, you were raise like an animal. Good morning Miss Swan" she said closing the door behind her. Yup! She totally was a pain in the ass, I couldn't go back to sleep after that. Two hours of sleep lost thanks to her Majesty.
I don't know, call me delusional if you like, but I'm pretty sure Regina enjoys having me around the house. Just last weekend, Saturday if I'm right, I came home late because I now and then enjoy of girls night out with Rubs, which consist of both of us having a few drinks at the Rabbit Hole, as usual I decided to walk home, the night was not as cold as usual, so it was a pleasant walk, but when I got to the mansion something was off. I knew it had nothing to do with Henry since the kid was having a sleep over at August's house. Every since he got converted into a kid, they have become pretty good friends. Anyways when I got home, there was a certain tension that lingered in the air.
As a normal human being I got worried so I did a quick scan in the bottom floor just to find Regina near the fire place in her office. It was the first time ever I saw Regina wearing a pair of sweat pants, a plain t-shirt, fluffy socks and her hair up in the tinniest pony tail, in the existence of the planet Earth. Okay maybe not that small, but it was short compared to mine! Her face was make up free; I'm not sure if it was the fire place giving her skin that magical glow or if it was the few beers I had, but God did she look breath taking, I stood there just looking at her for what felt years. I don't think I have ever thought of her that way. Okay maybe once… twice.. Okay I always do, but you can't blame a girl for appreciating beauty where there is beauty and we all know that Regina Mills is a fine piece of art. I'm sure that if she was made into a painting she would be the finest of them all… Errr I mean. What. Okay back to my point.
It was late at night and Regina was still up, which is totally usually because she goes to bed everyday at 10. Don't ask me how I know, I just know okay? Okay cool. Anyways she was up and drinking her wine, sitting by the fire place which is something that alarmed so after my small session of staring at her, I decided that the right thing was to check on her.
"Are you okay?" I asked as I sat in the chair opposite from her. My voice draw her out of her memory lane because the facial expression she had told me she hadn't even noticed my presence in the room.
"Miss Swan, back from drinking?" She tried to make it sound like a mock, but she failed miserably.
"Miss me much?" I can't help but to smirk and arc an eyebrow, this is going to be fun I thought to myself.
"Don't flatter yourself, I wouldn't miss you even if you were dead" Ouch! Okay that hurt.
"But I would" I'm about to leave the room because obviously her majesty is just fine.
"Miss Swan, wait" She calls me right before I step out of her office, I smile before I turn to face her with a more seriously look displaying in my face.
"What' up?"
She's hesitating for something, "Good night Miss Swan" she tells me this time as she leaves the room. This has been happening as of lately, I can tell there's something that Regina is not telling me. It's like we are playing a mind games, or might as well say that she is playing with me.
But you see, she didn't really show much interest or need of my presence, it was the next day what gave it away. I woke up to the best breakfast ever. She cooked pancakes, with eggs and bacon, my favorite thing to eat for breakfast. That's not it. She sent Henry with a tray to my room. I mean the guest room that Regina let's me rent for the past six months. She send me food to bed. One of her golden rules.
"Miss Swan, if there is something that is prohibit in this house besides fornication is food in the rooms. You are absolutely to never bring food to this room, understood?" Of course I just shook my head, and that only gain me another insult "I don't want any crochets invading my house, it's enough to have you here, I don't want any other animal" So now you can imagine my surprise when Henry came into my room with a tray full of food.
I always imagine that Regina compensates me with food, lately whenever she's been rude or mean to me, Sunday morning I always get a tray with breakfast in bed. I can't complain. Not really. I can't except that my jeans don't fit so lose anymore. I guess I've been putting some weight now.
Anyways I gotta go now. I have to prepare everything for tonight.
What am I going to do? Well just stick around and maybe if I feel like writing in this journal again I'll give you livid writing as what happens tonight in our first date.
