Swan Queen
chapter 1
A NIGHT IN STORYBROOKE
The sound of Granny's Diner neon sign hummed softly as Emma stood out front. The night was cold and damp, everything was still,except for the neon sign flickering before going the insides of Granny's Ruby turned the open sign to close . It was late, about a quarter after midnight. Emma put her hands in her pocket and let out a long sigh. She had gone to granny's for dinner and for a change of scenery. The sheriff's office wasn't exactly the most comfortable place, after all it only had a desk and a couple of chairs and a cell for any unlawful citizens of Storybrooke, like for instance, Mary Margret. Emma believed deep down inside that Mary Margret was not responsible for the disappearance of Kathryn,but Emma had to follow wherever the evidence took her and it lead her straight to Mary Margret.
Emma contemplated whether or not to turn in for the night, or head back to the sheriff's station. She walked slowly down the pathway from Granny's ,she guessed she would head back to the station and see if she could find anything new, with a refreshed pair of eyes. Just as she was about to walk out the white washed mini fencing she saw a shadow moving in the distance a good couple of feet away from her. She heard the clacking of heels meeting the asphalt of the road. She stopped in her tracks trying her best to get her eyes to focus on the shadow, trying her best to make out who it could be. As she stood there, she could feel cold tiny sprinkles of water on her face. Dark gloomy clouds had started forming over Storybrooke, a light drizzle began. Just then the shadow came out under a dim lamp-post. Emma immediately knew who that was. She'd know that person anywhere. Regina. As far as Emma could tell Regina was dressed in black, looks like the same suit she wore earlier that day when Emma saw her at Granny's during lunch. Why was she out this late? why was she still in her work suit?
Regina looked around from under the street light, Emma could tell something was up. Regina was being rather conspicuous. She held in her hands a brown paper bag, which she held on to firmly. After about a minute or two,Regina ducked back into the shadows. Emma's face held that confused questioning look. A million questions ran through her mind. That was when she decided to follow her. Emma pulled her red leather jacket tighter around her and began trailing Regina. She made sure that she kept her distance to not alarm Regina that she was being followed. Henry had said that he believed Regina had some involvement into Kathryn's disappearance. What if the kid was right?
Emma felt at home, completely in her element. She was accustom with this kind of work, after all it was her bread and butter before she came to Storybrooke. Emma moved in between alleyways, dodging Regina's back glances by moving to the sides of the alleyways. The drizzle strengthened, puddles began forming. It was hard in trying to stay quiet now,by not stepping into puddles and making those splash sounds. Regina bent a corner and disappeared. Emma paused a bit, not sure what was awaiting her around the corner. What if Regina knew she was being followed? What would happen then? Emma waited a couple minutes before rounding the corner, by then she had lost Regina. She turned on her heels, trying to see if she could find any hint as of to what direction Regina could have gone, but there wasn't any. The only thing Emma could see was that Regina had lead her to the cemetery. Emma stood at the entrance, and gazed in, it sure looked creepy. The lightning sure didn't make it any better, it just made it more terrifying. She got her flash light out from her pocket and turned it on. She entered, maybe Regina came in here. Each step she took she heard the mushing sound of her shoes against damp grass and dirt, so much for being quiet. She walked deeper in, all she could see was tombstones and the drizzle of the rain in the beam of light. She stopped for a moment, thinking this was useless, she spun around again,but saw nothing. Her flash light began to flicker,then just like that it went off, leaving her in the wet cold darkness of the cemetery.
It took a while for her eyes to adjust to the darkness, out to her right in her peripheral vision she swore she saw a shadow move, she turned to face it. It was indeed a shadow she saw, it disappeared into what looked like a building. She took her time in walking over to where she last saw the shadow, assuming it was Regina. Every step she took she could hear that annoying mushing sound. When she got over to the building she could tell it was a mausoleum. The lightning flash and in that instant she read at the top, "Mills". Ok then that made sense to Emma, Regina is visiting dead relatives,but then again why this late and what was in the brown paper bag? could it be flowers? but then again who puts flowers in a brown paper bag. Emma decided to do some snooping around the outside of the mausoleum. This took her back to working in the city, spying on people, collecting information. She knew her job and she did it well. I guess this was why she was so keen on proving Mary Margret innocent, why she wouldn't rest till she found out all she could before admitting to Mary Margret being guilty. Emma was always that kind of person. If she can see it and she can touch it, then it's real., if not, then she just passes it by with out taking another thought to it. Which was why she found it difficult to understand Henry's story about Storybrooke being in a book called "Once Upon A Time".
Henry was the reason she came to Storybrooke, he came and found her ranting on and on that she's the savior and needed to come with him and the rest is history. She remembered first meeting day she first laid eyes on her Emma's jaw dropped. She was a stunning olive-skinned woman, with dark brown hair and chocolate-brown eyes. She had a scar just above her upper lip, which made her look a bit sinister,but in an adorable way, if that was even has a gorgeous figure and knew how to dressed to compliment her body. The only thing Emma could do was think to herself , "wow" . She got knots in throat and butterflies in her stomach. She wanted to say something, anything,but Henry beat her to it. He had introduced her as his mom, his adoptive mother. Then Emma's face changed from being in a dream to utter shock. Ever since then, she's had problems in keeping her cool when Regina was around. That woman made her think things that would melt anything. Thing was even though she felt these things, she tried her best to fight them. Henry kept calling her the "evil queen" which she told him wasn't a good thing,but she had to keep this sense of thinking and acting when she was around him, to show him that she supported him and believed him, but deep inside there was turmoil, she had these unexplained feelings and far from ordinary friendly thoughts of Regina. That woman sure had a way of getting into Emma's mind and turning it to liquid,but then again the reason she was following her was that, Henry and Mary Margret has suspicion to believe Regina's involvement into Kathryn disappearing,maybe her being out this late can shed some light into it.
Emma walked slowly around the mausoleum, taking each step carefully. She had just gotten to the end of the wall and about to turn the corner when out of no where she heard "Miss Swan!" . Emma jumped, her heart was pounding fast. She turned around only to come face to face with Regina. "what are you doing here?" Regina asked, folding her arms. Her hair was a wet mess,but a wet cute mess. She was partly soaked and slightly shivering.
" I, uh. Well you see." was all Emma could muster up. She was both caught of guard and her stomach had just been filled with hundreds of butterflies.
"well Miss Swan."
Emma was frozen. The clouds broke and a heavy down pour came, Emma opened her mouth," i was following a lead, i interview someone and it lead me to the cemetery"
" the cemetery?" Regina asked putting her arms around herself. The rain sure was chucking it down now. " is that right. So you decided to snoop around my family's mausoleum."
" i wasn't snooping Madam Mayor."
"yeah, right Miss Swan." Regina said.
Emma looked up at the sky, thick grey clouds covered Storybrooke, lightening and thunder. What a time for it to storm. " we should get back into town."
" might as well, I'm getting soak, last thing i need is a cold." said Regina as she turned to walk.
Emma followed keeping a few steps back. She couldn't trust herself walking so closely to her. She was supposed to despise this woman, she kept thinking that, even tried to, as well as acted like it, when she was around others. She silently sighed and followed, only the sound of the rain and thunder broke the silence.
" Are you heading back to the station or to Granny's" asked Regina.
" back to Granny's. I'm completely soaked."
" guess that comes with your job." said Regina.
" excuse me? what?" Emma said stopping dead in her tracks.
" well you know, investigating, you are sheriff aren't you" Regina said, while continuously walking, not knowing Emma has stopped.
" oh yes, that's right." Emma said while she hurried to catch up.
They both made their way into town. It was almost impossible for Emma to avoid the puddles now, but it's not like it mattered now, she didn't have to be quiet. The light out front of Mr. Gold's was still on,it gave a dim glow to Main Street, making the place have this eerie look to it. Granny's was shut up tight, looks like they've all gone to bed by now. Emma looked at her watch, an hour and a half had flew by so quickly. She was shivering a great deal now,so was Regina, when they stopped at Granny's.
" well Miss Swan i bid you a good night. I hope there won't be anymore snooping for the rest of the night." Said Regina looking up at Granny's unlit neon sign.
" i wasn't snooping, i was following a lead." said Emma,knowing to herself she was sorta snooping." goodnight Mayor Mills." Emma said as she walked up the path to Granny's.
Emma got to the door and turned around,when she saw Regina turn and began walking down Main Street. What the hell was Regina thinking walking home in all this rain. Emma should have known that Regina came with no car. How stupid could she be.
" Mayor Mills!" Emma shouted trying to get her voice above the noise of the rain and didn't hear her, she yelled again "Mayor Mills!" This time Regina spun round with her hands in her pockets. Emma ran out to her." you're walking all the way home in the rain."
" doesn't seem like i have a choice." Regina said, through chattering teeth.
" I'll drive you." Emma said putting an arm around Regina. They both were cold and needed to get out of the rain before one or both got pneumonia. Regina didn't hesitate at all. Emma lead her to the car. A little yellow bug vehicle. She helped Regina get into the car seating her in the front passengers side. Emma got round on the other side and got in. Before she put the key into the ignition she reach to the backseat of the car and brought out a thick purple fleece blanket, which she always kept in the car, if she was on a stake out or something. She put it over Regina who laid back in the seat, her olive skin ice-cold to the touch as Emma wrapped her snugly with the blanket.
"thank... thank you Miss Swan." Regina managed to say.
" Emma, call me Emma. You would have gotten one hell of a cold if i had let you walk all the way it wouldn't have been right, not giving the Mayor a ride home, in such weather." Emma said as she slightly brush Regina's hair from her face.
Regina managed a chuckled. " please drop the Mayor talk, just Regina. I'm rather ti..tired of people calling me Mayor Mills."
"well then Regina, let's get you home." Emma said as she put the key into the ignition and fired up the car and drove her way down Main Street. Emma was having a hard time with driving. The rain drops were huge and kept falling a lot faster than the windshield wipers could manage. There were leaves blowing onto the windshield, looks like the wind picked up as well. Emma made tiny glances to Regina, who still shivered under blanket. The car was warm sure,but those wet clothes needed to come off, the rain was cold and her clothes looked like she was soaked to the skin. Emma tried her best to maneuver the streets. Regina didn't say a sound all this time while they were in the car. Which to Emma wasn't a good always had something to say.
Emma was relieved when she pulled up in front of Regina's beautiful white house with black shutter windows. It had an upstairs balcony which looked out over the front yard. Two pillars stood in front, the entrance to the door. It was a grand house, with a well-kept yard, with a walkway lined on either side with some sort of shrubbery. Emma got out first. She was right. The wind had indeed picked up. She was stung by rain and twigs and leaves. She rushed over to the front passenger's side and opened the door and helped Regina get out. They both fumbled their way up the walkway to the front of the door. Regina took her keys out and struggled to get the door open with the key. Once they were inside a warm rush of air hit them. Emma let go of Regina, her eyes adjusting to the sudden bright lights. They stood in the foray , on what looked like marble tiling. It was all white,glistening almost. Emma took the blanket from around Regina. They both stood there shivering and dripping wet.
"ge...get..m...me upstairs" Regina stuttered, as she walked to the grand staircase,grabbing hold of the railing. Emma followed her, holding her close leading up the stairs. Emma had been in the house before, with Henry. Regina had no knowledge of this, all cause Henry didn't think she would have been to happy about it,with her apparently being an evil queen. The grand staircase was laid with dark red carpets, the walls white with pictures leading all the way could feel Regina's body pressed against her,she could feel her trembling and the gasps she was taking. Emma lead her to the top and onto the upper hallway. It was impeccably decorated, paintings framed in gold, ceiling lights and white-painted walls. Emma knew the first door on the right was Henry's, she didn't know which was Regina's. Regina walked down the hallway passing two doors. She pushed opened the fourth door in the hallway. The light scent of perfume lingered. Peach coloured walls, with cream carpets, an elegant room. It reflected it's owner quite well. A quaint sitting area with a coffee table sat to the right of the room. The door to the balcony on the farther wall, her bed stood firmly next to it. There were 2 other doors in the room, one of them was closet of course. Packed quiet neatly,unlike Emma's. Emma never really had a closet. She was always living out of her suitcase. Regina's shivers had increased. Emma suspected she had caught a cold. Regina gestured to the closet,Emma gently lead her to it. She took out towels, bathrobe and a pair of fleece pajamas. She gave to Emma a towel and a bathrobe, "Ther...there's a bath..room outside. Door to the left" she said pointing out the door. She then walked her self to the second door in her room, which opened into a bathroom and disappeared behind the door. Emma held in one hand her purple fleece blanket and in the other a bathrobe and towel. She did exactly as she was told, she was already making a wet spot on the carpet. She went out and into the bathroom. It was small, probably for guest when they came round. She took her clothes off, practically peeling them off her skin. She placed them in the sink and turned the tap on, adjusting it to warm. She had no idea just how cold she was till she stood naked in the bathroom, shivering. She washed her face and dried her hair, to the best of her put the bathrobe on and walked back into Regina's room.
Emma took a seat in the little sitting area in the room, not sure what she should do now. BUMP!. Emma jumped to her feet. The sound came from in the bathroom. She rushed to the door and opened it. There was Regina leaning against the bathroom skin in her pajamas. "I wa...was...trying to open the door." Emma walked over to her,slipped one arm around the back of Regina's waist and the other she held her hand, leading her out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. "I'm so cold." Regina said laying her head onto Emma's shoulder. Emma took her over to the bed and got her tucked in. "Em..Emma, I'm cold." Regina said wiggling and thrashing in the bed. She began rubbing her arms, trying to get some warmth back into them. Emma just stood there watching her thrash around on the bed. She didn't know what to do. After about a minute an idea popped into her head,but she stood there with a look on her face, one as though she was having an argument with herself.
" scoot over." was all she said, before climbing up onto the bed,getting close to Regina. " um, ok" she said, as she drew Regina closer to her. Oh boy, what was she about to do. She knew having Regina so close to her would probably make her mind explode,but she knew no other way. When Regina was close as close could be, she put her arms around her, their bodies touched. Emma laid back onto the bed, trying to make herself comfortable. She took her hand and gently guided Regina's head to her shoulder. Emma's heart began to race. Here she was in Regina's bed, snuggled up with her, relying on body heat to warm her up. Regina continued to shiver for a few more minutes, till eventually she stopped. By that time, Emma's arm had fallen asleep, and that wasn't the only thing that had fallen asleep. Regina laid curled up close to Emma. Her head on her arm. She could feel each breath Regina took, the warmth of her breath against her skin. Emma looked at Regina, trying her best not to make to many movements, she didn't wanna wake her. Regina looked so cute cuddled up against her. Emma's face broke out into a smile. She thought to herself that, she survived being this close to Regina, she was improving. The last thing she wanted was to faint in Regina's presence. With knowing Regina was sound asleep and her shivers had ceased, Emma's eyes began to get heavy and she dozed peacefully off to sleep.
Emma's eyes fluttered open, something had woken her. She gently turned her head to the side where Regina had been fast asleep. Emma's eyes, met Regina's. She was awake, staring longingly at Emma. It was then that Emma realized what had woken her. It was Regina's touch. She gently caressed Emma's face with soft finger tips. Emma's entire body began to awake. She could feel her skin come alive, every pore open, every nerve ending alive. Regina's finger tips, touched her lips. Regina's chocolate-brown eyes glowed like embers on a fire. Emma could feel them on her. She felt her body got closer to her. Emma felt the heat emanating from her. She was not sure what was going on.
"Regina." Emma whispered.
"shh.." was the answer given to her as Regina's lips moved in closer and closer, till they were mere inches away from Emma's lips. Emma's heart began beating faster,she could feel her palms get sweaty,her stomach turned into knots and she closed in the space. Their lips touched. Emma felt a surge run through her body. Her eyes closed. Their kiss started softly and slowly. Emma's hand cupped Regina's face, pulling her closer, wanting nothing more than to kiss her deeply. Regina's body moved inch by inch, until she found herself over Emma's body. Her hands began to wander, they moved gently down her neck, her finger nails, gently scratching Emma's skin,moving slowly down till they found Emma's beautifully formed breasts. She began to gently squeeze, she could feel Emma's nipples hardening to her touch. Their kisses evolved at that moment, they became more vigorous, full of passion. Emma moaned each time Regina's hand cupped her breasts. Their tongues dancing together perfectly. Emma must have done something right, cause Regina kept moaning in between kisses and coming up for air. Regina's lips slowly moved away from Emma's, they began to trail down her neck,kissing each spot that sent tingles through every nerve and sucking on Emma's soft sweet skin. Emma could smell Regina's hair, radiating began to run her fingers through Regina's hair. Regina's kisses trailed down to her chest. Regina raised slightly off Emma's body. She looked down at her and slowly took her top off. Emma laid there with wide opened 's beautifully formed, burgeoning, naked, creamy breasts fell into view. Emma's mouth began to water. Regina, slowly and teasingly pulled on the straps of Emma's they were untied, she place her hands inside, running them up Emma's stomach, opening the robe. Emma's entire nervous system was on over drive. She felt everything and it felt so good. She began to feel herself getting excited down below.
Before Regina , laid a beautifully naked woman. Her breathing changed, she wanted nothing more than to sexually please this woman. Emma sat herself up, leaning against the back of the bed. She slid her arms around Regina and brought her in closely. She gently began caressing her breasts. Touching , teasing, rolling her nipples between her fingers, Emma pulled Regina's lips to her kissing her , letting her tongue into Regina's mouth, tasting into her deeply. She broke the kiss only to kiss Regina's neck, letting her tongue move easily over her creamy olive-brown skin. She kissed, licked and sucked, until she made her way to Regina's breasts. Regina laid back a little, offering her breasts, to Emma for the taking. Emma took her nipple into her mouth, sucking and licking it. All she could hear is Regina's soft moans, all those moans did to her was get her even wetter. While she sucked one, she played with the other, giving them the demanding attention they solely deserve. She moved her kisses, to Regina's stomach. sucking, licking all the way from her belly button up between her breasts to her chin, then finally kissing her deeply. Emma then placed Regina onto the bed, rubbed on her legs and took her pants off. By this time they were both completely naked, when Emma climbed on top of Regina. All Emma's thoughts and feelings earlier have all disappeared, all that matter was here and now. She hovered over Regina kissing her. Regina's hand felt its way down Emma's legs, caressing them with each stroke. She moved to her inner legs, moving her fingers up and down, then all the way up... Emma gasp at the touch. She was wet. Regina smiled. Her first touch and Emma was wet, She began playing with her and her wetness, encouraging Emma to do the same to her. Emma's hands moved down Regina's body, her soft creamy skin feeling s good, tasting so good. She got her fingers up between Regina's legs. She was more than wet and this excited Emma even more. She began to tease her with her fingers. Slowly in circles, gaining speed. Every move Emma made, Regina did to.
"i want you... now" Regina managed between breaths after a while of Emma's fingers giving her pleasure. Emma's lips moved down Regina's stomach, to between Regina's legs, where she went to work in making this incredible woman feel incredibly good. She did up and down, teasing at first, getting Regina all revived up. Then in circles, where she had her moaning and begging for me. "yes...that's it!" she said, putting her hands on Emma's head,pressing her closer to her. Emma's hands reached up to hold Regina's breasts. Her tongue being given quiet a work out. She breath in Regina's scent, her taste, she was loving every moment of it, not wanting it to end. She slid her tongue in and out of her before going back to work, licking and sucking. Emma increased speed, going faster and faster. Regina's moans changed, getting higher and higher, until all Emma could hear was a long releasing moan and feel Regina's body quivering, she could feel the wetness intensity change. Regina has climaxed, her body shaking. Emma slowly made her way up, kissing every part of Regina's body along the way. When Regina saw her, she pulled her closer to her and kissed her, long passionate kiss. While she did that,she got Emma to lay back on to the bed and this time, made her way down Emma's body, to between her legs. She licked her, tasting her first. She then went back down and didn't come back up. Emma was already so excited, she wasn't sure how much longer she could hold on. Her back arched as Regina made her feel insane. Regina continued at the speed she was at, for a while,before increasing, she knew to herself that Emma had a lot of simulation and she would climax to soon, so she did all she could to help Emma, to keep her enjoying every second. Regina enjoyed being down there, tasting her, loving the feel of her on the tip of her tongue. Emma could feel her orgasm coming and she began to beg Regina to speed up. Harder and faster, closer and closer Emma got, until Emma's eyes closed her breathing became shallow, her body got tensed and tight, she began to shake uncontrollably . Regina,knew that Emma had been brought to climax. After Emma's body had relaxed and released, Regina climbed her way back up. Emma could see Regina's lips glistening. She took her finger and wiped it then began kissing her. They kissed until their eyes could stay open any longer and they fell asleep in each others arms.
