Hey guys, this is my first OUAT story, i just joined the fandom so i hope you like it.
It's AU, i hope it isnt way too much OOC. In this story, magic doesnt exist. idk which characters from the show will be there. let's pretend that storybrooke is a regular town in Maine. ALso Regina is a teen, she's 16. i hope you can picture her, i'm sure Lana was a cutie when she was a teen.
It started at midnight
It was almost midnight when Regina was walking in the streets of Storybrooke. Lately, her life was a bit mess. She was dealing with a broken heart, since the guy who she was in love was no longer there.
It was a cold night, nobody was there. She put her hands on her pockets, trying to get her hands warm. She was wearing a black coat, black jeans and black boots. You could tell that black was her thing.
She was approaching the corner when she saw a shadow. Then she saw him. He was tall, with brown hair. He was wearing brown pants and a green jacket.
He approached her, and she knew that something bad was going to happen. She knew it was late when she left her house to visit the stables where she used to see Daniel, but she couldn't help it, she needed feel closer. She missed him.
She saw his eyes and she knew what he was going to do.
"Give me your backpack," demanded him.
He tried to take her red backpack, but she was resisting.
"No!" she screamed. "Let me go, asshole," added.
He took a knife from her pants, and cut the handles of her back pack, making it fall on the street. Regina hesitated. He couldn't take her backpack, she had a lot of things that she appreciate there. He couldn't take it.
He kneeled to get the back pack from the ground and that's when Regina reacted. She kicked him with her left foot on his stomach and he felt on the ground on his back, leaving the backpack next to him.
Regina took it and ran. She ran as fast as she could. She didn't paid attention to the lights, or the streets. She could had been ran over, because she was too focused in reaching home. She didn't see if he was following her, she hoped he wasn't.
When she approached her house, she took the keys from her pocket and opened the front gate. When she entered home, she realized that she wasn't cold anymore. She was sweating. Her cheeks were red, but not because it was freaking cold outside, they were red and burning. She took off her coat and her sweater, and she left them on the floor. She went upstairs, and then she saw the last person she needed to see: her mother.
"Regina, did you lose your watch, or forgot how to read? What is wrong with you huh? I cant believe how stupid you are over a guy who wasn't irrelevant in this world. Grow up and start acting like a 16 year old, you are acting like a baby" said with her cold eyes. Regina wasn't looking at her in the eyes, but she knew that they were cold. Her voice was also cold.
She couldn't understand why her mother was so happy that Daniel was gone. He made her happy. Since she started dating him, when she was 14, she was happier than before.
Her mother didn't liked him because he wasn't rich like them. Her father owned a successful company in the town. She met Daniel there. He was an employee. She met him at one exhibition gala when she was admiring a white horse with a black galley. He was so thin and looked sick, yet the organizers put him there, out in the sun.
He approached her and they started talking about horses. He told her that he used to live in a farm when he was a kid, so he loved horses. She told him about how much she loved horses, because she had been taking riding classes since she was five.
They ended up talking under a tree. She was blushing the whole time since he was older than her. He was eighteen and he was really cute. It was the first guy who felt something for Regina. It was the first guy who made her blush.
He didn't know she was Regina Mills, until they first date, when he went to her house and her father opened the door. Luckily, he didn't recognize him.
She remembered how silently the way to the cinema was. She was afraid that she did something wrong, but then he confronted her, asking her why didn't she tell him that she was Henry Mills's daughter. She told him that she didn't know that being Regina Mills was wrong.
Even though their first date was awkward, they ended up going out.
When Regina reached her bedroom she collapsed on her bed and she took her diary from her backpack. There was where she kept all her and Daniel's relationship written. She couldn't let the thief to take it from her.
She felt asleep with the book next to her. That night she dreamed about the thief, who was trying to kill her, but she also dreamed about Daniel rescuing her.
A/N: so any guesses about who is the thief? :P
