CHAPTER 4
Regina led the way out of the diner with Emma and Charlotte following closely behind. Once they got to the side walk in front of the diner Regina turned to do the duo.
"Where would you like to head first?" Regina asked.
"I don't really know what's in town. How about you Char? Do you know where you want to go?"
"THE LIBRARY!" Charlotte yelled and jumped around. Charlotte may only be four but she loved books. Every night she has her mother read her a bed time story, usually fairytales. She tries to read some of it herself but gives up once the words get too difficult. Emma and Regina laughed at Charlottes enthusiasm to go to a library.
"Is there a library nearby?"
"Yes, actually. There's one right across the street." Regina pointed to the clock tower where the library happened to reside under.
"Luckily for you two the library just recently re-opened. It had been closed for a while because we couldn't find anyone to run it. But about a year ago a woman who's lived here for a couple years now, Belle, came to the town council and said she would love to run the library and has been running it ever seen." Regina explained as she walked towards the library.
Emma had picked up Charlotte so they could walk across the street and keep up with Regina. Emma was fascinated with how sexy Regina looked when she walked. She walks likes she owns the place, proud, and tall. Her ass looks amazing. Emma has to catch herself before she walks right into Regina when Regina comes to a stop in front of the library and turns around to face Emma.
When Emma looks up she sees the smirk that was across Regina's face. Emma's face immediately got red.
Emma cleared her throat, "So… Is this the library?"
"Yes it is, would you like to go inside and look around?"
Charlotte immediately started wiggling around in her mother's arms wanting to get down and inside as soon as possible. Charlotte ran inside as soon as she was stable on her feet. Regina and Emma started following, Emma making sure that Charlotte didn't get too far ahead. Emma held the door open for Regina and as Regina passed Emma could have sworn that there was an extra sway in her hips. This woman!
Emma walked in behind the two. Charlotte was already looking through all the shelves she could reach with her height.
"MAMA! Come here!"
"Please." Emma reprimanded as she walked towards Charlotte. "Yes, Munchkin?"
"That one, please?" Charlotte pointed to a book that had Snow White and the Huntsman written on the front of it. Regina came up behind the two and chuckled at the book choice.
"What are you laughing at, Madam Mayor?" Emma turned around with a cheeky smile on her face.
"I despise Snow White. I've always preferred the Evil Queen."
"Why?" Charlotte asked from Emma arms, "Snow White is so pretty."
"Because Charlotte the Evil Queen never had anyone to love her. Snow White was always given everything she's ever wanted. Haven't you ever wondered how the Queen became evil?"
Emma looked on at the exchange and couldn't help but smile.
"She's just the Evil Queen." Charlotte said in response
"Yes she is but she had to have gone through something terrible to have such a terrible outlook on the world. People go through things that you may not know or understand. The experiences people go through are what make them who they become. The Evil Queen is just like everyone else."
Charlotte just nodded in response. She didn't fully understand what most of that meant but she would one day. Emma put Charlotte back down so that she could look around some more.
"You're really good with her."
"I've always loved kids."
"Do you have any of your own?"
At this questions Regina got really quiet. It has been something Regina has always wanted she's just never met the right person to start a relationship with since Dani.
"No, I don't. I want kids I just can't seem to find the right person to start a family with."
Emma looked a little confused at the vague admission but she didn't question. She didn't want to push her so much that she pushes her away.
"So who's this amazing woman that has taken on the rule of running the library?"
"Oh Belle. She has to be here since the doors were unlocked. Belle?!"
They heard a faint coming from the back room the next thing they know there is a medium height brunette woman coming out through the door in the back.
"Oh hello Mayor Mills. I wasn't expecting you today. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"No thank you. I'm actually giving Miss Swan and her daughter, Charlotte, a tour of the town. The first place Charlotte wanted to go was the library. I also thought they should meet the librarian since you are the sole reason we have a running library."
"Oh, Okay. Well I'm Belle French. It's nice to meet you." Belle put out her hand for Emma to shake.
"I'm Emma Swan, it's nice to meet you as well. Now let me just go find my daughter so that you can meet her." Emma turned towards where she last left her daughter rifling through the books. Emma came back with the small blonde on her back.
"And this is Charlotte. Say hi Charlotte."
Charlotte ducked her head in her mother's mass of blonde curls. Emma pulled Charlotte around and blew raspberries on Charlotte's tummy. Charlotte immediately busted out in to a fit of giggles. Emma pulled her back.
"How do we greet new people?" Charlotte's face blushed. She started to wiggle around so she could be put down. Once she was on the ground she turned to Belle.
"Hello my name is Charlotte. It's nice to meet you." She stuck out her hand. Belle knelt down on the ground so she could be at Charlotte's height.
Belle took Charlotte's little hand in hers and said, "Hello Charlotte. I'm Belle it's very nice to meet you too." Charlotte blushed again and turned into the older blonde's legs and hid her face.
"Good job, Char."
"Well now that you have met the librarian are you ready to continue with the tour, Miss Swan?" Regina asks feeling a little jealous of the moment Belle and Emma just had. She shook it off. I barely know this woman." Emma turned to Regina glaring at Belle. Emma can't help but to smirk.
"Sure Madam Mayor. Where to next?" Regina looked at Emma when she was spoken to. She saw the smirk on the blondes face and couldn't help but to blush.
"Would you like to see town hall? That's where my office and the sheriff station is. I could introduce you to the sheriff so you know that your beautiful little girl is safe."
"That would be great. Bye Belle it was nice to meet you." Emma picked Charlotte off the ground when she said this and Charlotte waved good bye.
The three of them left the library and headed towards the town hall.
