AU: Re-write of Ignorant Bliss...so yeahhh lol. Pretty much the same content written differently
Three months ago
Regina Mills watched on as the peaceful blonde slept. The Savior and her had been having a physical relationship for well over fourteen months but it had recently developed into more. She loathed to admit it but she truly enjoys waking up to the Emma's wide green eyes, wild mop of untamed curls and the little impish grin she sported nearly twenty-four seven. It had been at Emma insistence that they had taken their relationship to the next level.
"Gee-Gee." Emma mumbled before one of her eyes popped open.
"Yes, dear?" Regina actually managed a real smile whenever she was in her lovers presence.
"Your staring is very annoying. Stop so I can sleep!" Emma whined.
"My love, I do believe it is time for you to...wake up." Regina trailed her manicured nails up Emma's bare leg until she reached the swell of her ass before slapping it lightly.
"Don't start something you can't finish." Emma mocked glancing at the clock that said Regina would have to be to work in an hour.
"Trust me, I can finish it. Or rather I can finish you." Regina husked into the blonde's ear before moving to straddle her ass. Emma's red g-string allowed the blonde to feel Regina's bare wetness as she ground purposely into her.
"Shit!" Emma hissed as she carefully turned over to see her girlfriend who just smirked down at her.
"Your in a mood today." Emma gasped as Regina literally ripped her lingerie off of her lower half.
"Only for you. You have been a very good girl and I think you deserve a treat." Regina began nibbling on the blonde's earlobe, earning several strangled gasps and moans of pleasure.
"Even if I was a bad girl, I would still get a treat." Emma grinned but was quickly cut off by Regina sliding two fingers deep inside of her. They had done this several times before but this time something unexpected happen. Magic trickled out of Regina's hands sending burst of pleasure into Emma, who came with a startled expression. It took her several minutes to gather herself before she felt well enough to speak.
"Did you just use magic on me?" Emma stretched out like a cat, watching Regina's slightly panicked expression.
"I do apologize, I have never lost control like that." Regina squeaked with a guilty expression on her face.
"It's fine, I'm not complaining." Emma grinned lazily.
"Well you should be! I just used magic on you without meaning to! All magic come's with a price!" Regina ranted as she shot up off the bed.
"You should really just calm down. It's not that serious, if anything happens I'm sure we could handle it." Emma sat up looking worriedly at the brunette.
"How can you be so calm!" Regina turned her frustrations on the blonde who simply ignored her as she padded out the bed until she stopped in front of her.
"Because. I just had a mind-blowing orgasm and if you'd shut up I would give you one to." Emma pressed the unsuspecting Mayor into the dresser behind her.
That was three months ago. Before everything changed and now instead of Emma sitting in Granny's laughing with the love of her life and their son, her place was filled. With Robin Hood and his son Roland, they all looked like a picture perfect family while Emma looked on soaked from the rain. Shaking her head she forced herself to keep walking, to where she doesn't know. Flashbacks were her reminders now, and as luck would have it she got blasted with a good one then a bad. So on and so forth the cycle continued.
Two months ago
"Regina don't you see ?! Robin Hood is the man from the tavern, the one with the Lion Tattoo." Tink squealed
"Tink. Stop!" Regina speaks firmly but her voice nearly cracks.
"No not when your willing to throw away your happiness for the second time!" Tink was stubborn.
"I am happy. I have my son and I have Emma." Regina whispered harshly not wanting anyone else to hear what she was saying. Her and Emma's serious relationship was still fairly new and not too many people know about it.
"Emma? How long do you think that's gonna last?" Tink scoffed.
"Probably a lot longer than you were a real fairy." Regina spat taking the blonde off guard.
"You can lash out all you want but it wont change the fact that Robin is your Soul Mate. You've already gone through losing your True Love, do you really want to waste your second chance on a couple of rolls in the hay? Honestly I think your probably just with her because of Henry, you don't want her to take him away but you think he'll chose her and you don't want to lose your son." Tink huffed before walking away. Just like that the seed had been planted, little did Regina know that a certain blonde was listening in.
Six Weeks Ago \
The changes had been sudden and if Emma didn't know the reason for Regina's mood swing she would have been panicked. Instead she tried everything in her power to make Regina see that they were more than a few fucks. She truly cares for the Mayor but all of her efforts only resulted in Regina pushing her away.
"Would you stop touching me all the time? I am in no mood to have sex with you!" Regina spat at the blonde ignoring the hurt look and her glassy eyes.
"I just wanted to give you a hug." Emma squirmed under Regina's gaze. In these last two weeks Regina had managed to strip away a hunk of Emma's self-confidence. Suddenly the twenty-nine year old felt like that six year old foster child who had just been sent away.
"I don't want to hug you, I want you to leave me alone." Regina seethed
"Why are you doing this?" Emma asked softly, wishing Regina would finally say what was on her mind.
"I know you are not the most eloquent and to be frank you are quite dense but would you care to elaborate?" It was worded like a question but it was clearly a dismissal.
"I know about Robin and your secret meetings in the woods. That's why you don't want to have lunch with me anymore. That's why you wont let me touch you and you wont touch me. I know." Emma finally had enough with Regina destructive attitude. She didn't do anything wrong, she had been the best girlfriend she could be and this was how she was repaid.
"What are you going on about?" Regina swallowed harshly, really looking at the only person she has been able to bare her soul to.
"You don't want me anymore because you found somebody else. Somebody better." Emma looked blankly at Regina.
"Robin he's-" Regina was cut off.
"Your Soul Mate?" Emma chuckled humorlessly causing Regina to frown.
"I really can't fucking believe you. You did all of this because of something a rouge fairy and some thirty year old pixie dust said? You've walked around belittling me because you didn't have the balls to say you wanted someone else? I hope you realize that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. I loved you! Hell I still do but it wasn't enough for you? You just gonna toss me aside to go play family with a guy you don't even know? FUCK YOU!" By now Emma had tears running down her face as Regina stood nearly speechless.
"If I had just gone into that tavern thirty years ago none of this would be happening. I would have had my second chance at happiness. I owe it to myself and to Robin to see where this goes. I don't expect you to understand. You have never felt that level of loneliness!" Regina retorted
"Did you slip and bump your head or did you miss the part I was in foster care for over seventeen years with NO ONE because of YOUR fucking curse? Loneliness is all I have ever felt! You think your the only one who has lost something that they love? I can't fucking believe you! I fell in love with a woman who has only ever taken a happy ending from me." Emma shook her head turning to leave.
"Emma."
"I guess it's a good thing that you didn't want me to move in. It means I have nothing to move out." Emma said before leaving.
Present
The worst thing that could happen to you after a breakup is to find out your pregnant with your ex's kid. Its even more complicated when you already share a kid with that ex and you live in a small town. Looking on the bright side, at least she wasn't in jail this time around! Another bad thing about going through a breakup while you're pregnant, is you can't do typical post breakup things like going out to the club, drinking, finding somebody to help you forget.
"Emma are you even listening to me?" Ruby asked her best friend.
"What did you say?" Emma questioned, leaving her thoughts alone for now.
"I said when do you plan on telling Regina about the kid." Ruby asked for the third time that evening
"Whenever I feel ready. Can we not talk about this? Just hearing her name makes me nauseous." Emma groaned.
"What's going to happen when you're the size of a house, and she starts asking questions? She isn't going to forgive you if she misses out on the milestones on the way." Ruby pressed on.
"Cause Lord help me if she doesn't forgive me for something!" Emma snarled taking out her phone. Typing in the number from memory, she waited until the brunette picked up.
"Emma..." The brunette gasped, shocked that the blonde had called after nearly two months of nothing.
"Regina." Emma's tone was clipped as she watched a shocked Ruby across from her.
"I'm glad you called...I was hoping that we didn't mess up our friendship. For Henry's sake I would like to be civil." Regina rambled.
"Yeah see about that I don't want to be your friend." Emma snapped causing Ruby to try to come take the phone from her.
"Okay, I should have expected that. Was there something you needed then?" Regina swallowed down her own hurt to that.
"It has recently come to my attention that I have been keeping something from you, that apparently I should tell you." Emma replied vaguely, while dodging Ruby's attempts to grab her phone.
"Mama!" A tiny voice screeched and Emma knew it could only be Roland.
"Hold on a minute, sweet one" Regina cooed and Emma had to stop from gagging.
"Look I just wanted to tell you I'm pregnant." Emma hurried out.
"I-uh ? Excuse me?" Regina stammered.
"I guess you were right, all magic does come with a price." Emma hissed clicking the END button on her phone before sagging down.
"I bet you feel better now that you aren't carrying around this big secret." Ruby patted the girls shoulder
"Maybe that's why you and my Mom were friends. Because you two think that secrets are supposed to be told to the one person who isn't supposed to find out." Emma quipped just as her phone began to ring.
"Emma she deserved to know." Ruby soothed. Both of them chose to ignore the phone that was ringing non-stop.
"What about what I deserve? I think I should get a little time to lick my wounds before facing the one who caused them. I know that its selfish but I want to be just a little selfish for once. This whole time I've been playing Savior because that's what was expected of me. People think I'm this hero but I just want to be Emma. Somebody who isn't expected to do whats right all the time." Emma ranted
"I know honey." Ruby hugged her best friend.
"Can we just pretend your my baby's daddy?" Emma whined.
"If Regina doesn't step up to the plate, I'll be your baby's daddy. You aren't doing this alone, Em." Ruby promised.
"I know, I just don't know how I'm going to be able to do this. Watching her have her happy ending with someone that isn't me...I can't be the bigger person and say I want her to be happy regardless cause I don't. I want her to be miserable! I want her to be hurt just like me. Does that make me a bad person?" Emma asked quietly.
"No. It makes you human. An honest one too. I don't think I would believe you is you said you wanted her to be happy with Robin." Ruby responded.
"I don't want him around my baby. If they want to play family, she can get her own damn self pregnant." Emma pouted.
"That's something you two will have to talk about." Ruby said.
…...Regina's POV...
"Mom, do you think I could go over to Emma's today? I miss her." Henry asked softly, his hopeful eyes so similar to his birth mother's.
"I'd have to talk to her, if she's feeling up to it then I don't have a problem with it." Regina replied.
"Henry come play!" Roland yelled to the older boy.
"I don't want to play." Henry grumbled.
"Henry surely you can play for a little bit with your brother." Regina tried to coerce him.
"He's not my brother! Just because you left my mom for his dad doesn't mean I have a dad or a brother. My dad died!" Henry retorted watching his mother flinch.
"Henry you don't understand..." Regina trailed off.
"I know Mom hasn't come bye cause you hurt her." Henry glared at the brunette. The sad part was she couldn't even deny what he was saying because it was true.
"Son, don't speak to your mother that way." Robin's voice was soft but his words firm.
"You're not my dad! You can't tell me what to do!" The boy snapped.
"Papa, he's scary." Roland whispered loudly.
"Are you happy now? Your scaring your brother." Robin chided.
"He's-not-my-fucking-brother!" Henry gritted out.
"Language! Young man you are grounded, you will not be going over to Emma's until I deem fit! Go to your room!" Regina scolded.
"You're not my Mom either." Henry threw one last jab in before storming off towards his stairs. Before anybody could speak, Regina's phone rang and she was surprised to see Emma's name flash across the screen.
"Why is she calling you?" Robin looked at Regina intently.
"Emma..." Regina answered the phone surprised.
"Regina." The iciness of the blondes tone surprised her, the woman had never sounded like this before.
"I'm glad you called...I was hoping that we didn't mess up our friendship. For Henry's sake I would like to be civil." Regina rambled.
""Yeah see about that I don't want to be your friend." The words were harsh, but no harsher than anything Regina had done to her in the past, so she couldn't fault Emma.
"Okay, I should have expected that. Was there something you needed then?" Regina swallowed down her own hurt.
"It has recently come to my attention that I have been keeping something from you, that apparently I should tell you." Emma replied vaguely,and Regina could hear a minor scuffle in the background. Suddenly Roland came barreling towards her with a small cut on his finger.
"Mama!" His bottom lip quivered, he had taken to calling her that on occasion mostly saying Gina.
"Hold on a minute, sweet one." She cooed when she seen it was a superficial paper cut.
"Look I just wanted to tell you I'm pregnant." Emma hurried out.
"I-uh ? Excuse me?" Regina stammered. What did the blonde just say? What did it have to do with her?
"I guess you were right, all magic does come with a price." Emma hissed before all Regina heard was the dial tone. The words were ringing in her head, that night with Emma when she lost control of her magic playing in her mind. Emma Swan was pregnant with her child. She was pregnant and she just dropped this bomb on her and hung up? Quickly dialing back so she could get to the bottom of this, she wasn't surprised that Emma didn't answer her. It was just like the blonde.
"What did she want?" Robin asked watching her inner turmoil.
"She's- she's pregnant." Regina inhaled sharply.
"What does that have to do with you?" Robin asked confused.
"She said its mine." Regina admitted to what she already knew.
"Is she serious? I can't believe she is that desperate! I mean I know we came from a different time and realm but even here that surely isn't believable! How can a woman procreate with another woman?" He snapped.
"With Magic." Regina answered.
"Surely you are falling for this love! She is a lying whore trying to ruin us." Robin argued.
"Don't call her that! You don't know her." Regina glared at her boyfriend.
"I know enough. I can't believe your going to let her back into your life." He shook his head in disbelief.
"She is Henry's mother! She will always be in my life." Regina replied.
"You are his mother, she gave him up! He need's stability and discipline, something he obviously won't get from a woman who has no sense of direction. I mean this will be her second child out of wedlock...that we know of!" Robin's voice raised.
"I think you need to talk a walk and cool off." Regina said coldly.
"I'm not going to entertain this idea Regina. When I get back you need to decide if you want our happy ending or if want to chase after the Charming family for the rest of your life. Both of the boys deserve stability." Robin said before leaving the Manor.
I personally like the way I wrote this just a little bit better than Ignorant Bliss, what do ya think about the chapter so far?
