New Years Eve
Henry persuaded his moms to give a nice New Years party for their family and friends this year. That's why the Mills mansion is filled with joy and laughter this evening. On the couch by the window are his mom's friends sitting with their new puppy. They became really good friend with Ruby and Belle after they got together 3 years ago. On the other couch are David and Snow sitting with their new-born son James while their big son, Neal, is playing hide and seek with Henry. In the kitchen Regina and Zelena are preparing snacks for the guests while Emma is searching for the present she bought Regina. She can't find it anymore because she doesn't know where she put it although she knows it has to be somewhere in their bedroom. 'Emma, what takes you so long? Everyone is waiting for you' Regina shouted. 'I am coming' she shouts back while looking between her underwear where she finally finds it. She smiles while putting the small box in her red leather jacket.
When she is downstairs and spots Zelena and Regina cooking in the kitchen she doesn't enter the kitchen but just stares at Regina while leaning against the doorpost. She starts thinking about the rough year they had. They are together for 3 years now and were trying to have a baby, but it wasn't easy. Regina got pregnant in July but at their first ultrasound the baby didn't have a heartbeat and Regina felt like she was failing. Regina feels someone is watching her and she turns around 'There you are' she smiles and proceeds with cutting the cake. Emma slowly walks in the direction of Regina and puts her arms around her waist 'You look very sexy in this dress' she whispers in her ear. Regina is wearing a deep red dress that shows all her good features nicely. 'I can't say the same about you and your red leather jacket' she joked while winking at Emma. 'Hey lovebirds, there's a sister in this kitchen who doesn't want to hear this' Zelena said when she finished cutting the bread. 'Let's go to the party than' Regina says while carrying the snacks into the living room with Emma walking behind her.
When all the snacks are on the table Regina takes the spot on the couch next to the Charmings 'He is so adorable' she says while looking at baby James. Snow looks at James 'Do you want to hold him?' she asks. Regina smiles and opens her arms 'yes, I would love that'. She is holding James in her arms while whispering to him how cute he is. She feels that Emma is staring at her so she looked up at Emma and whispers 'I love you' so quietly that only Emma would understand it because she can read her lips. Emma stands up from her chair and takes the small spot next to Regina and whispers 'I love you too' in her ear while putting her hand gently on Regina's flat belly 'maybe one day that's our baby in your arms. Don't give up hope' and she places a kiss on her girlfriend's cheek. There is a tear forming in Regina's eye but Emma quickly wipes it away.
At that moment Henry comes downstairs with Robyn in his arms. 'I heard her cry, so I took her out of the crib' he says while rocking her gently till she stops crying. 'I think she likes you' Zelena says while smiling at him, because she saw how nervous Henry is 'You are a talent with babies'. Henry smiles and looks at his moms, hoping he gets a brother or sister one day. 'Henry, Henry, where you?" Neal screams from the kitchen and he storms into the living room and hugs his big friend's legs 'There you awe'.
Belle looks at her watch 'Guys, it's almost midnight. We have to get the Champaign ready' she says while standing up to get everything ready. Regina puts baby James back into Snow's lap and walks into the kitchen to get Champaign glasses. Emma also gets into the kitchen and slides her arms around Regina's waist 'at 12 exactly you have to come outside with me' she says and walks away. Regina puts the glasses with Champaign on the table a little confused after what Emma said to her. When she looks outside the window she spots Emma standing there looking up to the stars. She puts on her black leather jacket and sneaks away from their friends and family to get to her girlfriend.
Exactly that moment when Regina walks outside, the fireworks are starting and their friends and family are wishing each other a happy new year. 'Where are my moms?' Henry asks to his grandparents. At that moment they all look outside the window and henry tells them all to be quiet for a moment. Regina's arms slip around Emma's waist 'I am here' she whispers. Emma is nervous and turns around. She looks into Regina's eyes and starts talking 'Regina' she takes her hand 'I know you don't like to be in the centre. That's why I took you outside. We had a rough year, but I am sure if we have hope, we can overcome everything. Because this relationship started with hope, hope we got from our son. I am thankful you raised him this well and I hope we will raise him, and maybe a little Regina further together. Because there is no day I want to be on this planet without you by my side. That's why..' she reaches for her pocket and nervously tries to pull out her little box and gets on one knee. 'That's why I want to ask you.. If you want to marry me Regina Mills?' she asks while looking up at her crying girlfriend. 'Yes, I do miss Swan' Regina answers while big tears are running down her cheeks. Emma puts the ring on Regina's finger and gets up from her knee to kiss her fiancé. 'Emma, I need to tell you something. I am pregnant. I..' Regina couldn't finish her sentence because Emma was kissing her again while gently putting her hand on Regina's belly 'You're pregnant' she whispered with a big smile. Henry was storming outside to hug his moms 'finally!' he screamed excited.
