Regina

You ask me why I hate her. She came into my world and took everything from me. And at the same time I cannot truly hate her. We love the same things. If we had met under other circumstances perhaps we could have been happy. Maybe one day she would have silenced the malice in my heart instead of simply enraging it. It would have been more of a challenge but this woman could do it. She tries to be hard so much like me. But she fails too easily. She loves like I cannot, like I pretend I don't. Every time she's near I want her to push me up against a wall, to hit me again, to make me feel. To make me take responsibility for my actions. To make me fight myself. I haven't touched a single thing she truly loves.

Oh great she's coming she'll hear me, she'll see me crying. She'll think I am weak, that I can't handle it, that I truly have gone mad. What good is power without someone to care?

Emma- You ask me why I hate her? She does horrible things, she hurts people. I hurt her and yet she doesn't blame me for any of it. I hate how she makes me feel. How I seem to almost care. How when I can tell she's about to break I want to run and hold her in my arms before she collapses, she never does though. I wish she would, maybe that would make her more human and more real. Enough with this magic I am telling her I am leaving, that I am running, running from her.

There is a light in the room. The one She was in. The one with all the power, all the magic in the world. The blonde pushed in the door. Saw the dark woman sitting in the corner. The makeup running down her face, blood dripping from her hands, shattered glass on the floor. The blonde ran to her with her eyes showing concern. The darker one looked up. One look was all it took. Lips pressed quickly in haste a magic neither could create.

Regina- she watched as my tears stopped, she wrapped my hands up, she held me in her arms. Part of me wanted to fight her off, but the other part of me wanted her to hold on tight. We sat there forever. How do I tell her not to go. I want to love, I just don't know how. Or maybe I do but am too scared to try.

Emma- Regina, I'm sorry. You're trying I know. You don't have to try all on your own ya know.

Regina- I love you. I…love…you.

Emma- I know.

I've always been a coward. Every time I love things get ripped away from me. Magic interferes, she is magic, I am magic…

Regina, come with me. We can try a different life. One away from magic and away from storybrook. I came for you tonight.
