Thank you for all the reviews. No, this isn't just about sex, and here is where an even deeper storyline begins. Of course, I do love writing love scenes, and I am not going to stop. Making love is part of being a couple. With that, here is chapter three.

Chapter 3

Ruby seated them at a booth in the corner; as far away from everyone else as she could. Whatever was going on with Emma, she knew how this town could be, and she wanted to make sure her privacy was respected. She knew it wouldn't stop everyone from peeking into windows and wondering, but she knew that most customers sat at the bar or close to the entrance, so that table was the best place for them.

Hook had heard the town talking, and he had to see for himself if Emma really was back. Walking into Granny's, he saw her, and she was sitting next to Regina. Regina kissed her, and all the while, the two women were smiling. Hook had tried so hard to get that kind of a reaction from Emma, and he had partially attained it, but still, something was missing between the two of them, and he was seeing that filled by Regina right now. It was painful to watch.

Hook approached the table, and Emma held on tightly to Regina's hand. She faced hook, and greeted him. "Hook," she nodded.

"Swan," he nodded back. "Hello Regina." He nodded politely at the queen too, and she nodded back. "Why did you leave?" He asked Emma.

She had been concerned about this encounter, and she had thought long and hard about her reply to him if he should ask. "Because my parents, as well as you, were terrified of my powers," she replied.

"I wasn't terrified," Hook was on the defense.

"You were, and you didn't know me well enough to know where to find me." She stabbed him with her words.

"She probably cast some spell to find you." He retorted.

"And that is my point!" Emma shouted. The yellow emanating aura was growing from her hand, but Regina controlled it with her purple aura and nodded for Emma to continue. "No one gets it, and no one understands everything I am going through but Regina. She took initiative to find me and when she did, she showed me how to control it." She slowly removed her hand from Regina's and harnessed the yellow energy so she had complete control over it. Then, she made it fade away all on her own, without any assistance from Regina. "I couldn't do that before." Emma told him. "I was out of control."

"But why did you start something romantic with her and just forget about me? Was I just a toy to you?" He demanded; anger and hurt very clearly visible on his face.

"No," Emma shook her head and stood up. "There was always something between us that lacked, and I couldn't quite figure out what it was. At first I thought I was attracted to Regina because she had magic, but then I realized, I was attracted to her for all that she is. With you, we connected because we were both outsiders that had, at different times in our lives found our places." She sighed and then looked down at the ground. "But I even relate to Regina in that respect now." She shook her head. "Just as my parents began to genuinely love and accept me, they also fear me. Just as they decide to really embrace me, they reject me out of fear. Even when she was furious at me for bringing Marian back, Regina never fully rejected me." Emma sat back down next to Regina and looked at her lovingly.

"I never didn't love you," Hook pleaded.

"But you never gave me the one hundred percent feeling she does." Emma replied. "As a friend, I love you, but romantically we are over." Emma added.

A devastated Hook left Granny's, and Emma felt terrible. "I hate breaking hearts." Emma stated, her head resting on Regina's shoulder.

"It had to be done at some point." Regina replied, pulling the blonde closer to her.

Emma could only nod in agreement and wait and see who else was going to approach her while she was out.

Strangely, no one else did, and she and Regina enjoyed their lunch without further interruption.

Hook was furious; how could she just play with him? One thing Emma Swan forgot was that Hook wasn't a good guy; he was a villain.

"Angry?" The Snow Queen showed up, a huge smile painted on her face.

"Very." Hook replied.

"Good." She transported both of them to her little hiding place. "We have much to discuss…"

"You harnessed your magic earlier today," Regina stated proudly, leading Emma into the woods. "It is time for some safe practice." She threw a stick in the air, "hit it". She ordered Emma, who shot it perfectly with a bolt from her hand.

"I did it." Emma beamed.

"Now make your hand normal again, no magic." Regina guided her. She tried, but the yellow aura stayed around it.

"I don't know why it isn't working." Emma said confused.

"Don't focus on magic," Regina guided. "Focus on the present, the place you are now," Emma closed her eyes, and the aura faded away.

"Yes." Emma smiled again, turning around to kiss Regina. "I did it." She smiled and gave her lady another peck. "Again." Emma got ready and Regina threw another stick in the air, and this time, Emma moved it around instead of shooting it. She then focused on where they were, and the aura faded, much quicker this time.

"Impressive my love." Regina beamed back at her.

"It doesn't mean I want to stop holding your hand." Emma winked at her.

"I don't ever want you to stop doing that." Regina kissed her deeply and lead her back to the house. "Now, let's have my magic make us some dinner, and I think we should tell our son we are a couple."

"That sounds perfect." Emma followed her back to the house, and Regina magically made a lasagna appear. "I want to learn how to do that." Emma sat down on the couch and pulled Regina onto her lap.

"Eventually." Regina turned around to kiss her. "I like being the cook at the moment." She smiled at Emma who smiled back and kissed Regina's neck.

"Are you cooking?" Emma joked with her.

"I am on fire." Regina played back.

"Oh yes you are." Emma replied, removing her shirt.

"MOMS!" Henry looked puzzled and embarrassed. He dropped his books and ran up the stairs.

"Henry!" Regina grabbed her shirt and got off of Emma, quickly running up the stairs to do damage control.

Emma just sat there embarrassed too, but she felt like there wasn't much she could do. She just needed to sit back and let Regina take care of this one.

"Henry?" Regina knocked at his door and she heard him moving around.

"Come in." He said, just loud enough so she could hear it.

"Henry," Regina began. "I know that you weren't expecting what you just saw," she swallowed and continued. "Emma and I have begun a romantic relationship." She finally said.

"So my birth mom is dating my adopted mom…" Henry was more than confused. "But now operation Mongoose doesn't matter." He didn't cry, but Regina could tell he was frustrated. "I mean," he looked down at his bedspread. "If you don't care about being with Robin Hood, then who cares if you find out who wrote the stupid fairytale book?" He grabbed the new book from the shelf and turned it to where they were now. The story of Regina and Emma was in it, but the last page had the Ice Queen on it. "Do you think you should be worried about this?" Henry asked Regina, showing her the page with the Ice Queen on it.

"I don't know what it means." Regina admitted. "There isn't any text."

"Then that can be our next mission." Henry stated.

"So you're done being mad?" Regina asked.

"Yeah," Henry shrugged. "I personally would like to still find the author of the book that has all the fairytales in it." He smiled at Regina and she nodded.

"Maybe one day we will." She hinted. "For now, we need to figure out why this picture is here, in the new book." Henry nodded in agreement, and they went downstairs to fill Emma in.

So, what do you all think? In this specific story, Henry has a book that is still writing itself. It is an interesting twist I wanted to add. He still has the old book, that has all their fairytales in it, but this one is the one currently being written based on the actual choices the characters are making.
