"Your highness." a voice said from the other side of the door, Tori recognized it as one of her maids.
"Come in Madeline" Tori said covering her eyes, she felt a migraine come on, her hang over coming on to be exact.
"I've packed everything you asked for, the car is ready to take you to the airport." she spoke softly, Tori groaned and got up she stood up and looked at her reflection she looked like a train wreck.
"Thank you, I will be out soon." Tori spoke politely, Madeline nodded then shut the double doors.
Tori dragged herself to her vanity and sat down, she wiped her face clear of makeup then reapplied everything, she settled for an edgy look, dark eye makeup, dark red lips that compliment her blue-green eyes. She brushed her dark locks and pinned it up in an elegant updo pulling out some hair for some fly aways. She walked into her now almost empty closet and picked out a Light taupe blazer, white shirt and black skinny jeans and paired it with Valentino Rockstud heels. She grabbed her pursue and made her way to the front gates. To her surprise her father was there.
"Change your mind?" Tori asked
"No." he said "I came to say goodbye." Robin added
"Okay, well, goodbye father."she said, he looked at her and opened the door for her, she got in.
"Have a safe trip, please I'm only doing this for your benefit, understand that." Robin said
"Yah." Tori mumbled
"I love you Victoria. Call me at least so I know you made it, okay?"
"Sure, bye Robin." she said pulling the door closed. The car pulled away from the castle grounds, Tori looked back to see her father waving, she sighed then turned around closing her eyes imagining what her mother would look like.
Tori got off the plane and grabbed her purse, she was thankful that all her belongings had been sent ahead of her and would likely be at her mother's, where ever that way. She walked towards the baggage claim, she didn't know who to look for, of course her mother but she didn't know what she looked like, all she saw was their wedding picture. Her mother had dark hair and porcelain skin that she had inherited but her eyes were brown.
"Victoria?" A voice called from behind her, Tori spun around to meet those brown eyes. This woman looked quite elegant almost mayor like, she had shoulder length black hair, dark red lips, and dark makeup. She wore a dark red blazer that stopped at her hips the color a shade lighter then her lips, a black dress with a v-neck that hugged her figure and ended before her knees, and long black boots that ended a little below her knees. She really was beautiful.
"Yes." Tori said, the woman licked her lips nervously and smiled.
"I'm Regina your-"
"My mother." Tori said with a soft smile, she had been waiting so long for this moment and it didn't seem real.
"You have your father's dimples." Regina said with a soft smile
"Thanks." Tori said softly
"This isn't the way I wanted to see you again." Regina said
"I know." Tori said looking away, Regina noticed her thick British accent and smiled.
"Listen, I'm not going to judge you for what appears on magazines." Regina said
"That's good to know." Tori said
"Consider this a clean slate Victoria."
"Call me Tori, only Robin calls me Victoria and I rather not have-"
"I get it." Regina said, Tori nodded.
"Shall we?" Regina asked
"Sure." Tori said, she followed Regina out to her car. She drove a black Mercedes-Benz. At least her mother was well off.
They both got in and sat in silence for a bit, Regina started the car and pulled out then cleared her voice.
"So, did you fall on your neck recently?" Regina asked without looking at Tori.
"I'm sorry?" Tori said not knowing what she meant.
"Your neck it has a bruise on it." Regina said smirking, Tori pulled down the mirror and examined her neck, she had a hicky, she turned bright red.
"James." she whispered shaking her head.
"Who is this James?" Regina asked, Tori closed her eyes.
"Just some boy." Tori said
"Some boy hmm?" Regina said
"Yes." Tori said
"Okay." Regina said Chuckling, Tori couldn't help but smile, her mom was pretty cool.
"So, How about we play a game of questions, I ask you some and vice versa." Tori suggested
"Okay." Regina said her eyes still fixed on the road.
"What's your occupation?" Tori asked
"I'm actually a mayor of a little town in Maine."
"What's it called?"
"I believe it's my turn to ask a question." Regina said, Tori smiled
"Of course, go ahead."
"What are your hobbies? Aside from partying and such."
"What happened to not judging?"
"I'm not, I'm just interested in your other activities."
"Well I have many passions, I secretly like to read. But what occupies my time aside from partying and all would be painting, drawing, playing music, and writing."
"Interesting." Regina said
"Yes, now what is the town called that you are mayor of?"
"Storybrooke." Regina said
"Bold name for a town."
"I know." Regina said smiling "What are things you hate to eat? "
"Well I loathe your big macs, they are disgusting. Other than that I'm okay with everything else. Do you have any other kids?" Tori asked, Regina shifted in her seat.
"Yes two others." Regina said
"Two?"
"My turn, what was your longest relationship?"
"I never committed to one." Tori said
"You've never dated anyone?" Regina asked in disbelief.
"Hey, it's my turn. So about these two kids, how old are they?"
"Well, the first is Henry he is 16 and I adopted him. The other one is named Roland he is 4. Back to you, why haven't you dated anyone?" Regina asked
"I don't do relationships, I don't see the good in them, I don't want to end up broken again."
"I see." Regina said
"Roland, is he adopted?"
"No, he isn't."
"How old were you when you had your heartbroken?" Regina asked
"16. Who is Roland's father?" Tori asked, Regina sat in silence unsure of what to say. Tori looked at Regina who was still focused on the road, maybe she hadn't heard her.
"Who is Roland's father?" Tori asked again, Regina looked at Tori then returned her game back to the road.
"It's a rather complicated situation." Regina finally said
"Oh, okay." Tori said, Tori peered out the window and read a sign. 'Now Entering Storybrooke.'
"We're here." Regina said pulling up into a driveway, a huge white mansion at the end of it. Tori and Regina got out and Regina led her into the house.
"Your room downstairs through those double doors, I'm sure it will accommodate all your belongings."Regina said "Now do what you have to do but I promised I'd meet up with my sons at the local restaurant, so you have a few minutes to settle alright?" Regina said
"Yes." Regina went up the steps while Tori walked to her room she opened the French double doors an examined her room. It was fairly large, it wasn't as big as hers back in the UK but it would do for now. There were many boxes full of basically everything she owned. Her room was empty besides the king size bed in the middle and the huge white vanity in the corner. The walls were painted white and she had enormous windows that were floor to ceiling thankfully with some curtains, that were red. She liked her new room.
"Tori! Let's go!" Regina yelled from the foyer
"Coming." Tori said, she grabbed her purse and headed towards Regina smiling as she shut her room door. Maybe this living situation wouldn't be so bad after all.
