Chapter 4
After breakfast Emma left for the station and David spent some time Neal at Regina's command, Regina and Zelena were in the kitchen washing dishes and tidying.
"So, Emma?" Zelena frowned and looked at her sister.
"No, Zel-e-na!" She said pointing at herself. Regina rolled her eyes.
"So Zelena, has anyone in town caught your eye yet?"
"What do you mean?" At this point, David walked in with Neal, feeling bad for leaving the two women to clean up after him.
"She means, do you have the hots for anyone?" Regina was going to injure something with the amount of times she had rolled her eyes today alone.
"Yes. Thank you, David."
"You're welcome." He said with grin. Regina turned back to her sister and lifted her brow in question.
"No." Zelena answered shortly.
"Who is it?"
"Nobody."
"It's Emma." David spoke up at the same time. Regina whipped around to look at him,
"You knew?!"
"You didn't?!"
Regina turned again to face Zelena, the woman's cheeks had turned as red as her hair. Regina felt bad for having outed her sister like that,
"You know, Emma likes you too." Zelena's head shot up and hopeful eyes drilled into Regina, "It's true she was staring at you all morning." Zelena lowered her head, her blush intensifying and a grin spread on her face. Regina smiled and looked to David, who had a matching smile on his face.
Once everything was cleaning Zelena practically sprinted from the apartment and drove to the sheriff's station. She checked her reflection one more time, once she approved her own appearance she strolled through the corridor to the sheriff's office, she knocked and heard a muffled, "Come in." from within the office. Zelena opened the door and stepped in. Emma lifted her head from her arms as it had been resting previously.
"Oh hey, Zelena." Emma scrambled to look presentable and straightened her desk. "What can I do for you?" Zelena blushed and gathered enough courage for the next step.
"I was wondering if you wanted dinner at Granny's today with me tonight?" Emma, having just had a sip of coffee, had spat it out at this declaration, spraying most of the content on her desk. Zelena was concerned, was Regina petty enough to lie to her about Emma's feelings.
"Like a date?" Zelena nodded slowly. "Um, yes. Yes I would like to go on a date, if…" Zelena's heart dropped, what would the saviour want in return? "…I can plan it." A grin found its way on to Zelena's face and she nodded quickly. "Okay I'll pick you up at seven?" Zelena could nothing but nod and smile,
"Oh I'll be at Regina's."
"Cool."
"Okay."
"Okay."
