Hi Guys!
I wrote a longer chapter. I wanted to let you know that robin is already gone past the town line with Marian and Roland. I'm planning this to be a Swan Queen Fic.
Enjoy!

"Mom!" Henry shouts through the phone as Regina chuckles.
"Henry," she says in a husky and exhausted voice, "I'm fine..."
"Are you sure you're ok?" Henry asks skeptically, he knows his Mother has a tendency to downplay injuries.
"I'm fine, Henry, really. Just tired..."
"Can I please come see you?" Henry asks in a pleading tone.
"Yes, but it's rather late-"
"I'm coming." Henry says instantly as he yells for his Grandparents. Regina can hear Henry begging them to take him to see her. "I'm coming!" Henry shouts again into the phone as Regina chuckles.
"Alright," Henry hangs up and hurries to see his Mother at the hospital.
"He's coming."
Regina says to Emma as she nods, "you really ok?"
"Is this a mind trick to see if I'm lying?"
"No... I'm concerned."
"I'm fine."
Lie.
Emma takes a deep breath, "what about with Gold."
Regina sighs, "I'm scared," Regina admits.
"I won't let him hurt you or your kid."
"He said my child is powerful."
"Regina..." Emma says in concern.
She knows something.
Regina sighs, "Robin is prophesized to be my soul mate..."
"Yeah..."
"I'm sure that changed when he left... and can't come back." Regina whispers, "soul mate and true love is light magic. Since I started using light magic and I am also the Evil Queen-"
"Were," Emma mumbles.
Regina sighs, "I have incredibly dark magic."
"You have both."
Regina nods, "and now my child is one of the most powerful people in all realms. It's never been heard of for someone to have both types of magic. It's supposed to be impossible."
"Which means that your kid is powerful."
"Most likely has magical gifts that have never been seen."
"That's why Gold wants your kid alive."
"My guess, I think he knows what magical gifts she has."
"She?" Emma asks smiling.
"Oh... um... I've been sort of thinking about the baby being a her. It just feels like, a girl. Sorry it's hard to explain... it's stupid..."
"No. It's not. I had the same feeling with Henry. I just knew it was a boy." Regina smiles as she strokes her hands over her stomach.
"I've always wanted this." Regina says with tears in her eyes, "I've never been pregnant. I've always wanted a child of my own. I love Henry, but... I never got to carry him, grow him inside me... feel him kick..."
Emma laughs, "I get it. But you didn't miss much. I love him too, but damn he was a pain. I could never get comfortable, he was always kicking me. Oh! And he always, always had the hiccups."
Regina chuckles, "well, I hope that I won't be uncomfortable. I'm really happy."
Emma smiles, "you're glowing. You're already an amazing Mother.. but, you're going to be a great Mother again."
Regina smiles, "thank you... I guess you really did find my happy ending."
...
2 Weeks Later
Regina is released from the hospital, Emma and Henry help her back home. Emma won't let Regina out of her sight.
She's taking this protection thing a little far.
Regina muses as she rests on the couch.
"Ok, do you need anything?" Regina had sent Henry upstairs to finish his homework, promising they could all have a movie night afterwards.
"Yes, a 5 star meal with a strawberry desert," Regina says sarcastically.
"Ok, um... does Storybrooke have other restaurants then Granny's? Never mind, I'll find one." Emma says grabbing her keys as Regina stares with wide eyes.
Really?
"Emma, wait, STOP! Sit down."
Regina says chuckling as Emma plops down next to her on the couch, "oh! you probably changed your mind. It's ok, I get it."
"Emma, stop it's ok, I was kidding. You're taking everything way too seriously... Emma, I'm fine. Please, just calm down for two seconds. Thank you for taking care of me, but you need to take care of yourself too." Regina chuckles, smiling at the blonde.
Emma laughs, "yeah ok... maybe I'm taking it a little far." Regina sighs as she leans back on the couch with a blanket laid over her legs. "You going to tell Henry?"
"Yes, I just want to find a good time. I don't want him to hate me." Regina says sadly, playing with her fingers.
"Regina he won't hate you. Knowing him, he'll probably be happy to get a little sister.
"What about what I did before that?"
"Regina look at me, you don't need to tell him. He doesn't need to know that. "
Regina nods as tears fill her eyes, "I don't know what to do anymore..."
"Hey, everything will be alright. I promise."
"Why are you doing this?"
"Doing what?"
"Helping me. No one ever wants to help me."
"I. do. Regina, you deserve a happy ending."
"But my soul mate is gone!"
"Maybe... you can have more than one soul mate."
"No. That isn't possible."
Emma shakes her head, "I don't believe that. I'll go talk to Gold. You okay here with Henry?"
"Yes, but..."
"But what? I promise I'll come back for movie night," Emma says smiling.
"I don't want you to get hurt," Regina mutters under her breath.
Emma smiles, "I promise I'll be back. In the same condition I left. I might be a little upset or riled up, but I'll be fine. I promise."
Regina nods her head, "are you going now?"
Emma nods, "yeah, I think so. I might as well."
"You ok?"
Regina nods, "I want to tell him."
Emma nods in understanding, "alone?"
Regina nods, " I think it might be better."
Emma nods, "alright. I'm going to go talk to Gold." Emma says standing up and stretching her arms above her head.
"Ok."
Emma smiles, "I'll be safe I promise."

Hope you liked it!
