Chapter 2: New Guy
"Elaine Vas a llegar tarde a la escuela!" (Trans: Elaine you're going to be late for school!) Regina yelled while knocking at her teenage daughter's door, seeing her daughter coming out of her daughter with her backpack and slight wet hair and grabbing a muffin and bacon on the table
"You're not going to eat?" Regina asked her daughter
"I'm gonna be late, I'm sure you don't want that," Elle said while chewing on her muffin
"Yes, I also don't want you to talk while eating, Sit down and eat. The clock is 30 minutes earlier,"
"What? Why? I rushed getting up and getting ready," Elle asked her mother after she chewed her food
"Because I want to be early, and I'm going to be busy today." Regina simply said
"Busy on the flower shop today? New flowers coming?" she asked her mother
Regina said to her daughter a few years back that she works into a flower shop that her friend owns, She uses the flower shop as an excuse "Yeah, there's going to be a lot of flowers and chocolates today, especially this coming Valentine's day," she said "Need a ride to school?"
Elle standing up and finishing her mango juice and putting her plate into the sink "Yeah sure, just don't get out of the car,"
"Yes, yes, I know. You already said that to me like a hundred times," Regina smiled
"I know, I just want to make sure you know it." Elle said
"Let's go?" Regina offered and opening the front door
"Let's go," Elle said while getting out and getting inside of her mother's car
"So, what's up? In your school?" Regina asked her daughter
"Same old, same old," Elle said "Mami, I have to ask you a question,"
"Ask about what?"
"About my father," and there it is, She always knew that this day would come, her daughter asking about her father
"yeah, what about him?" Regina said still focusing her eyes on the road
"Do you know him? Or does he know that I'm his daughter?" Elle asked
"Of course I know him, he does know that he has a child with me but he doesn't know what your gender is,"
"Why?" Elle asked again
Regina sighed "I told him that I was 9 weeks pregnant, after I said that, he left. And then I heard that he died from a car accident, and now, he's in the same place with Grandpapi. I'm sorry, honey."
"What's his name?" Elle asked
"His name is Daniel," Regina simply said
"How old were you when you had me?" Elle asked her mother again
"Same age as you, honey,"
"18? You were eighteen when you had me?"
"Yes, and I'm only 18 years older than you," Regina smiled to her daughter
"How did you do it?"
"Do what?" Regina asked
"Raise me and still go to school,"
"Well, I work all kinds of stuff at day and take night classes, That's why I want you to finish school first," Regina said while holding her daughter's hand
"Te Amo Mami," Elle said while hugging her mom goodbye "I have to go to school now,"
"Te Amo Hija, Take care at school," Regina said, bidding her goodbye to her daughter
Regina got out of the elevator, receiving Good Mornings from her co-workers, and Emma walking towards her with a cup of coffee
"Good Morning," Emma greeted
"Are you going to do this, Everyday? Getting me coffee?"
"Good Morning to me too," Emma said, making Regina rolled her eyes "So the new guy is coming, Be ready to get your wallet out, You're going to give us money," Emma smirked
"Who says I'm going to give you money? You three, You, Tink and Ruby are the ones who's going to give me money," Regina remarked
Before Emma could say anything, Belle got closer to Regina first with a man behind her, "Regina, This is the guy that I was talking about and Mr. Gold sent,"
"Robin Locksley, your new partner," Robin offered his hand
"Hi, I'm Regina Mills, The head of this department," Regina accepted his hand, And she saw Tink and Ruby behind Robin, drooling "And I owe three girls a dollar," Regina smiled, walking into her office and taking out her wallet from her purse and getting three dollars and walking out again and saw Robin talking to Killian, Neal and David
"Regina, We'll start the meeting about the investigation in 20 minutes," Mary Margaret said and handed her a folder
"Hey Reginaaaa!" Regina turned around and saw Emma, Tink and Ruby giggling and handing out their palms
"Hey Mary Margaret, What do you think about the new guy, is he cute or not?" Regina asked her colleague
"He's cute and he seems nice," Mary Margaret said, Regina rolled her eyes and gave them their money
"Thank you," Emma said
"I told you he will be hot," Ruby said
"You made a bet on him?" Mary Margaret asked
"Yes, we did. If he's cute, Regina will give us a dollar, If he's not, we will give her a dollar each one of us," Tink explained to Mary Margaret
"Well, this power puff girls won before I even knew it," Regina said, walking into her office and sitting down on her swivel chair
"Cute or not, Regina needs a new love," Tink said
"No I don't, Love will only distract me from my work," Regina deadpanned
"No you won't get distracted from work especially when he is from work," Emma said
"That's right, I mean look at us Regina. David and I," Mary Margaret said
"And what, See Prince Charming and Snow White doing the same work, this is real world, Mary Margaret. There is no happy endings in real life," Regina said, making Mary Margaret gasp
"Oh yeah? Like you have happiness in your life, Regina, You only go from House to work for the past six years since you worked here, Have fun! Live your life!" Emma said
"And you also need to drink and get laid, Regina," Ruby said, making Regina's eyes wide open
"I don't need to get laid, Ruby!" Regina exclaimed
"Yeah, you do. Just like Tink and Neal did last night after drinks!" Ruby said and also making Tink's eyes getting wider and receiving a smack on her arm
"We did not do 'it'!" Tink defended herself
"Oh really, Tink? Especially with Cassidy?" Regina smirked
"Yes really! Nothing happened! But how about Killian and Emma last night!" Tink said making all the attention to Emma
"Why what happened?" Mary Margaret asked
"Emma went to the bathroom and Killian left, and Emma never came back. So we assumed that they left together," Ruby explained
But before someone talks and continues their 'girl' talks, Killian knocked on the door "Ms. Mills, the meeting will start now," Regina stood up from her chair and followed Killian out of her office and into the meeting room, her other teams were already there, The boys, Killian, Neal, David and her new partner, Robin and girls, Belle who is already preparing the files and giving out folders and behind her is Mary Margaret, Emma, Tink and Ruby following her.
"Okay, This 3 T's drug, where did it come from, Belle?" Regina asked her, Belle in charge of the important stuffs that needs to be investigated
"3 T's started in a school, apparently teenagers started taking this drug and they bought it in their school, and in that school, is a student. The dealer of this drug is a student maybe 17-18 years of age." Belle said with her Australian accent voice
"When did it started?" Regina asked while scanning the files
"It started a couple of months ago, approximately 2-3 months already. The teenager that I told you about yesterday, Regina, He uploaded the video on his facebook page but deleted it, But luckily I retrieved the video before he even deleted it, Here watch," Belle walked over to the laptop and connected to USB to the laptop that has been connected to the projector, she turned off the lights and played the video.
"The guy who's filming seems a little high," Emma said
"A little? Look at him and his friend," Regina said, making Emma and the others focus on the video. The other watched the video as she saw Robin stealing glances at her which makes it harder for her to focuse on the video especially when she knows that someone is stealing glances at her, but in this video got her attention when this teenager has really red eyes and skin and asking silly question and the video ended.
"So Belle, where does this student goes?" Regina asked as she leaned back on her chair
"The student goes into Blue Wrecks High School," after Belle said that she saw how Regina's face changed, "Something wrong, Regina?" and all the eyes of the people on the room where on hers
"Nothing, It's just that school is just a 15 minute drive from my house," Regina said
"So, Highschoolers huh? What kind of stuff did they do?" Emma remarked
"Oh I don't know, Swan, Drugs," Regina saying the obvious answer
"What kind of crazy ass stuff did you guys do when you were high school?" Emma asked, bringing back the crazy High School Life
"How about I ask you that question, Miss Swan," Regina smirked
"Oh you know, Cutting classes, drinking, parties, sneaking out, high school love, and stuff," Emma said and she leaned back to her chair making the other laugh
"What a little wild child, Swan," Regina grinned
"Of course, High School is fun!" Emma cheerfully said "So, Ruby what did you do?"
"Similar from yours, Emma," Ruby said, making Regina rolls her eyes and seeing Robin stealing glances from her again
"Of course! That's Ruby Lucas, Everybody!" Tink exclaimed
"What did you do Tink?" Mary Margaret asked
"I pretty much just studied, because I was bullied back then," Tink shrugged
"What? Why?" Mary Margaret asked again
"It's nothing, really. Of course the master mind of those bullying is the Popular Girls, They bullied me because of my height,"
"Well, I've known Killian since High School, so we pretty much did all crazy kind of stuff, mostly drinking and girls," Neal said
"Well I was the team captain of the baseball team back then," David said
"Senior Prom was the best! I was one of the students that helped decorated it," Mary Margaret just praised herself
"What about you Belle?" Emma asked
"I just pretty much studied and read books," Belle being the usual bookworm
"Reading books are no fun," Emma turned her attention to Robin "So you Robin, what did you do back then?"
"Well, I was a student. A lot of girls getting around me," Robin smiled
"Of course! Who wouldn't want a date with a guy who looks like you!" Tink exclaimed
"But I didn't date a lot of girls when I was high school though," Robin simply said
"How many girls did you date?" Killian asked
"About two girls,"
"Well those two girls are lucky," Ruby said
"Look whose quiet right now," Emma turned her, actually, all of their attention to Regina "So, what did you do?"
Regina sighed and thought for a second, "Besides being the president of a high school club, Parties! Drinking. I still know some of my high school friends like, Tink." Regina pointed to Tink
Ruby gasp, "You went to High School with Tink?" she asked
"Yeah, But we were not close, she has her own friends and I have my own friends," Regina said
"I only had like two friends and Regina was one of the popular girls in high school, But she's didn't bully me back then," Tink said, making all the girls gasp
"Are you kidding me? Regina was one of the popular girls?" Emma asked
"Yes, She's the nicest but coldest popular girl, and the Senior Prom Queen," Tink said, making all gasp again
"Who's the Prom King, Tink?" Ruby asked
"Her boyfriend," Tink smiled, making them gasp all over again
"Are you all not getting out of breath?" Regina asked all of them, but they just shook their heads
"So, Robin, were you also a Senior Prom King?" David asked
"Yeah, I actually was Prom King," Robin said and nodded enthusiastically
"So we have a Prom King and Queen in here!" Mary Margaret exclaimed, referring to Regina and Robin
"Okay, This meeting is getting out of control, Meeting's over," Regina commanded and standing up from her chair and seeing Robin opening the door for her
"Ladies First, Mi'Lady," Robin sweetly said and hearing their colleagues saying 'way to go man!' or 'oooh!'
"So Robin, I see you were stealing glances from me back there when we were watching the video," Regina said
"Yeah, making fun of the name, how original, Mi'lady," Robin said, making Regina chuckle "And how did you know I was stealing glances from you when you were also stealing glances from me?"
"Point taken," Regina smiled "Why is your name Robin anyway?"
"I don't know, ask my parents, Mi'lady,"
"Stealing and Robin? Sounds a lot like Robin Hood, eh?" Regina teased
"I know, I know my name is similar to Robin Hood. That's why my son's favorite cartoon character is Robin Hood because he has the same name like his Papa," Robin said
"You have a son?" Regina asked
"Yep, He's 4 years old," Robin said
"That's cute," Regina smiled and offered her hand "New partner,"
Robin took her hand "New partner," Regina and Robin's hands weren't letting go until they heard Emma spoke with all the crew behind her
"It is a little hot in here?" Emma teasingly asked
"Of course, Ms. Swan, I'm standing right here," Regina smirked and got into her office
"Oooh, Sassy!" Ruby said, making Robin laugh
Regina went home late as usual, making her own alibi to her daughter why she came home late, she opened her front door and seeing the television on and a half eaten box of pizza and her daughter has fallen asleep in the couch while watching.
Regina turned off the TV and putted away some hair on her daughter's face, "Hija, Come on, Let's you in your bed," She back-hugged her daughter, "You're a little taller than me now,"
"Of course, Mami, you're only taller because of your shoes," Elle said
"I know, My not-so-little munchkin," She kissed her daughter's forehead, "Good Night,"
"Good Night to you too, Mami," Elle said and Regina closed the lights and the door and she proceeded to her own room.
