Hey everyone, this is my first fic ever but I do have to point out that I've written this with BlackHelix, who is wonderful for taking time away from her own writing to give me a hand with my own. So thank you. I owe her for helping me. I hope you enjoy it.

OOO

Emma stared with caution at the blue magic swirling between her hands. It was light and had a slight tinge to it, almost making it teal. It was rather beautiful actually, it was something that if she saw in a glow of light, she'd stop to pay attention to it. Either way it didn't matter what her's looked like, Regina's would always take the cake at being the most beautiful and definitely most eye catching. The purple mist or smoke, was a dark shade of purple but the color itself was light. It really did represent the two people Regina was and yet, the woman still chose to be who she was.

"Emma?" Snow called out as strode up to her daughter sitting on the bench by the water.

Emma slammed her hands together. Her mother didn't know about her diddling in the art of magic. No she didn't need to know, she'd just rant her out about how magic turns people evil. But Emma knows better, she's not Regina, she won't let it overtake her. She's not an addict.

"Mar-Sno-Mom." Emma corrected herself as she gave a small smile to the pixie haired woman. Folding her arms over her chest to keep the chill out she looked her mothers outfit up and down. "Warm?" She asked sarcastically at the site of her mother dressed to the nines in numerous winter gear.

"I'd rather not catch a cold." Snow said as she dropped down beside her daughter. "What are you doing sitting out here by yourself?"

Emma shrugged and peered over the ocean. "Thinking."

"About what?"

Emma shrugged again, "Things."

Snow placed a gloved hand on her daughters shoulder. "You can talk to me and your father, you know that right?"

Emma nodded. "Yeah, but it's a little odd."

"How so?"

"Still trying to come to terms with everything. I haven't really had time to adjust, I was just thrust into everything. So it'll take a little time." Emma said with a small smile.

Snow nodded, "Well I'm here for you anyway."

Emma gave a small nod of to show she understood. It was a nice gesture, she wouldn't deny it, but this was not a problem that would be solved if she spoke to anyone about it. This was something she had to solve on her. Her whole world had been turned upside down, her son had come back into her life, the adoptive mother of her son was the Evil Queen from fairytales. Her mother and father were Snow White and Prince Charming. Red Riding Hood was actually the wolf and Rumpelstiltskin is the owner of an antiques shop. That was about all she was processing at the moment, the rest could wait.

"You still coming to the diner for dinner tomorrow night?"

Emma nodded. "Of course, Henry's looking forward to it."

"That little guy has had such a rough time." Snow said bowing her head down to look at her wool boots. "It'll be good for him not to have to worry about anything for a while."

"Yeah no more people trying to kill everyone. For the moment at least, I'm sure someones planning something somewhere." Emma said with a small scoff.

"I'm mostly worried about Regina."

"You still don't trust her?" Emma asked incredulously.

"You do?" Snow retorted.

Emma looked away from her mother. "I wasn't in Fairytale Land, I don't know the things she did, I only have what you say to go by. I won't blame Regina for things I didn't go through. Plus even so, she's trying, I said once that I know what it's like to be in her shoes and I lost sight of that and look what it cost us. Regina nearly killed you once again. I won't make the same mistake. I believe in her." Emma pushed.

"I suppose." Snow inhaled deeply. "Why don't you invite Regina to dinner tomorrow, give her some quality time with Henry and it'll show that we're trying to be supportive for her."

"You know her and 'support'." Emma made exclamation marks around 'support' with her fingers. "She's not very trusting."

Snow shrugged and stood. "Still you never know, she may just accept."

Emma conceded. "I'll try."

"Okay, I have to meet your father, I'll talk to you later." Snow gave one last warm smile in her daughters direction before walking away.

Emma looked back over the ocean briefly before looking back down to her hands and willing the magic to return between her fingers. It looked truly beautiful, amazing. The teal swirl made a small static sound as it crackled between her fingers. A small hum travelled through her body until her world went dark around her her.

Quick first chapter up. Next one should be up in a day, me and BlackHelix are already hard at work at it at the moment. So much so we are already three quarters through it and it will have Regina/Emma interaction in the next. Thanks guys and girls.
