A/N; Time Jump, after the curse breaking, probably won't write too much more, sorry. Massive writers block :(
"Have a safe trip, Miss. Swan." Regina said handing Emma the turnover.
Lifting the lid to the container, she allowed the fresh smell of the turnover to watt around the vacant apartment. Dipping her finger into the still warm desert, Emma sucked the apple and crumbs off her index finger and moaned at the sweetness.
stepping over to the fridge, she grabbed out the orange juice, before she could pour it, everything went dark.
Gasping for breath, Emma sat up quickly and stared at Mary Margaret. "What happened? Did I faint?"
"True loves kiss..." Snow touched I her lips slowly, looking at her daughter.
"true... What?" Emma asked confused.
"we broke the curse with true loves kiss," the brunette said staring at Emma.
"snow?" David called barging into the apartment, tears of joy in his eyes as he saw both of the women on the floor.
Mary jumped up quickly and flung her arms around him as if nothing had happened and Emma took a shuddering breath, grabbing her keys, pushing the turnover into the bin face down along with the container it was in before storming output of the apartment.
~two weeks later~
Playing darts in the sheriffs station, Emma heard Regina's telltale click of heels wondering down the main hallway, she looked up at the brunette briefly before flinging the dart at the board with a huff. "There's no work for me to do and all my paperwork is done, Regina."
"That's not why I'm here, dear. Sit." Regina sniffed briefly with distaste at the stations slightly messy state and she perched on the edge of the deputy desk.
Emma hooked her foot in the edge of the rolling office chair and pulled it to herself before dropping into it. "What can I help you with?" She asked tiredly.
"How's Henry?" She asked softly, watching the blonde for a reaction.
"He's fine, I think.. No, I know he misses you, but heis just scared to admit it, he's ten. He thinks you're still the evil queen, but you've been in this land for almost thirty years, and no ones dead, so I think you're not who people say you are, I think they're honestly just misjudging you-"
"Do shut up, Miss. Swan, I don't care what you think-"
"Obviously you do, or you would of gone and seen.. Mary Margaret." There was a hesitance in the blondes words, she didn't want to believe that snow was her mother. They may not of believed Henry about his fairy tale theories. But the harshest of realities came when she saw snow kiss charming.
"I have gone and seen her," she screwed her face with a slight agitation. "You don't actually go home much, do you? Charming said you come home, eat, sleep, shower then come back to work."
"just doing my job, Regina. If you have a problem with the way I'm doing it," the blonde stood and pulled her badge off her belt and tossed it onto the desk and unzipped her gun, setting it down also.
Grabbing the badge, Regina stared at it then Emma. "The next time you hand me your badge, you better be prepared to lose it." She huffed, grabbing the blondes wrist and slamming the shining object into a pale palm. Stating at the bruised wrists a little too long, Emma noticed and pulled her arm back by her side and fixed her sleeve up.
"why are you here Regina?"
"Henry came to my office today."
"I'm guessing you came to yell at me cause he was supposed to be at school? In case you haven't noticed, that's Snow's job there to watch him, I'm trying my best, but I'm not fit to be a mother, and we both know that."
"He said that you've not been the same since the curse broke."
"Regina, I met my parents for the first time in twenty eight years, excuse me for not being able to wrap my head around the fact that they didn't abandon me on the side of the road cause they were drug addicts or young cons on the run." Emma sighed, flopping back into the chair, it rolled backwards a foot or two before stopping, she leaned forwards, elbows on her knees hands supporting her head. "Oh god, I'm sick, I'm so sick. People are gonna find out and I'm gonna be the towns pariah. And fuck. I'm so disgusting." Emma rambled, getting up pacing back and forth.
"As much as I'm enjoying your breakdown, dear. Would you perhaps... Like to talk? You seem to always give me a chance, even when I don't deserve it." Regina said watching Emma stop and stare at her.
"I slept with someone and it was before the curse broke, and it's bad Regina, really bad."
"Oh god, it wasn't charming, was it?"
"god, gross no, gayer them Ellen here.." Emma said gesturing to herself, pointing out the chippednail polish, combat boots and leather jacket. "Neal was a one time, massive mistake, testing if I really was gay type thing. I loved him..just not like that."
"So, who?"
"Me," snow said, sitting her bag on a desk as she walked further into the bullpen.
"her?" Regina rose her eyebrows in shock.
"her," Emma nodded slowly and turned to look at snow, "how long have you been there?"
"you saying you were sick.." Snow said going over to Emma, each step snow took forward, Emma matched, stepping back. "Why won't you talk to me, Emma?"
"Why aren't you reacting the same way I am, Mom?" Emma shot back.
"I-I don't know." Snow said sadly. "It doesn't feel wrong, it feels like.. I don't know, but not wrong."
Emma slipped her jacket on, growling lightly, she ran out of the station.
