I know, I know. I'm sorry, but after 5 months of school my teacher decided that I actually had to something(who would have thought that?!) and then my laptop decided it was time for his retirement.. And yada yada yada.


''He was the first!'' she screamed now desperately. The brunette stopped, but didn't face the woman behind her.

''I never kissed anyone after you and I.. After us. '' She tried to steady her feet again so she could walk to the brunette.

''Good day Miss Swan.'' And she left without saying a single word.

Ever had one of those moments where you wanted to smack the object that was the closest to you? Or just yourself? She had never intended to say those words, or any word actually. What kind of idiot says words like that to a woman with her walls up to heaven, or hell, whatever suits you.

But even though she regretted every word and had never wanted to say them out loud, not one part of it was a lie. In those two years she had never kissed anyone after Regina, yes there had been women, lots of them. Even men when she couldn't find any feminine. But they were only there to forget, to forget the brunette she would probably never see again. And she had never kissed them, kissing was to intimate for her. It even was to her intimate before Regina. But had she ever had a clear mind when it came to the brunette with her beautiful chocolate brown eyes.

So after she had smacked herself, multiple times, and thrown a few glasses around the station she followed Regina outside. Just in time to see the black Mercedes leave the parking space.


Regina did came back the next day to talk to Graham, but she immediately went to the sheriff's office. She didn't bother to look at the blonde, not even a simple 'hi'. It did hurt her, she couldn't deny that. Maybe it was time to move on. Two years is long enough. She thought.

So she said to Graham she was hungry and that it was time for dinner and called Henry. She hadn't talked to the kid for a few days and had admit she missed him. Of course the kid was all too happy to spend the evening with her.

''So you quit the soccer team?'' They were eating at Granny's. Not that there was another place where you could get you food. This township definitely needed more restaurants.

Henry was eating a burger with fries. They had found out they liked the same food. ''Yeah, it was pretty boring and time consuming, there are other things I want to do.'' He shrugged.

''Like what?''

''I don't know, maybe football. Did you know they're thinking about adding a swim team?'' It was more a statement then a question.

Emma looked at him with a smug ''I heard, so who is the girl you want to see in a swimsuit?'' The kid almost choked in his fries, but Emma could only laugh.

''I didn't say that!'' He was still a little red from coughing. Emma couldn't stop laughing at his face. He didn't know where to look. ''I know, it was implied'' Emma said.

''I don't want to talk about it.'' The redisch colour on his face was gone, he was now very busing wth concentrating on his food. She knew the look on his face, it was the same she had the night when she found out about Daniel.

''She got a boyfriend?'' She asked carefully.

He laughed, it was a bitter laugh though full with sarcasme, ''Nope, she has a girlfriend.''

''Oh, I'm sorry.'' She didnt know what else to say.

He looked at his birthmother, ''Don't be, am glad she is happy, just sad it's not with me though.''

''You're way to mature for your age.'' she pointed out and took a bite from her fries.

''Yeah well,'' He shrugged, ''explain to me, you're gay, but you still got me.''

Now it was Emma who started coughing. ''Excuse me?'' She couldn't remember telling him she was gay.

''You're pretty damn obvious Emma.'' He stated.

''Can we talk about something less awkward?''

''This isnt awkward.''

''It is when your talking about it with a 14 year old boy who turns out to be your son.''

"Point taken. Ok, what is it with you and my mom?''

''Here I was thinking that we were going to talk about something less awkward..''

''Since when is my mom awkward?''


Turns out that the only reason why Henry brought his mom up is because he is worried. Apparently she was drinking more lately and not only her own home-brewed apple cider. He haddend seen his father after the night Regina had brought him to the B&B and he actually didnt care so much. He was just mad at him, thinking that Daniel was the one who made his mom sad. She coudn't stop wondering if maybe he was wrong.

So here she was standing in front of the white mansion, she figured Daniel would still be at the B&B and Henry was at a friends house. And they needed to talk.

She rang the doorbell. It took a while for it opened, she didn't mind. They had time. Emma was looking at her phone when the door opened. ''Miss Swan, how sweet of you to join me.'' The brunette was wearing a black pencil skirt with a dark blue coloured blouse. No heels today, not any sort of thing around her feet actually. ''You want something to drink?''

''You're drunk.'' Emma stated.

''Very much so yes, but I believe I'm still talking understandable.'' She walked away, leaving the door open for Emma so she could follow her.

And of course she did. It was true though, Emma was impressed by how well this woman coudl hold her liquid. She closed the door behind her and followed the brunette. ''Why are you drunk?''

''Why wouldn't I be Miss Swan?'' Emma didn't know what to say to that. She had a point, why wouldn't she?

''Because you have a son.''

''Who went looking for his birthmother, and is by the way not here.'' They were in the study again. They both sat down on the same couch when Emma noticed the second glass on the table. ''You have company?''

''No, I was expecting you.'' Emma looked at her with a weird look on her face. ''You said we needed to talk.'' Regina explained.

''We do but not when you're drunk.''

''Why not, don't people always say that drunk people tell the truth?'' Regina looked at Emma, They where extremely close now. Their noses almost touching.

''Doesn't mean it's true though.'' She quickly took a sip of the glass in front her. She saw the eyes of the brunette next to her, they were full with lust. She couldn't deny that her eyes probably had the same look, but that was not why she was here. Not that she could act on her feeling now. the woman was pretty drunk.

''Couldn't hurt to try.'' The brunette dared her.

Emma looked at her seriously, ''Regina, what's wrong?''

Emma couldn't believe how quickly this conversation turned into something seriously and emotional, but Regina looked back at her, eyes filled with tears. ''Emma, you can't just say stuff like that to me and expect that I'll just move on!''

The blonde didn't miss the use of her first name and she also knew exactly about what Regina was talking about.

''I didn't say it to hurt you Regina. I said it because it's true.'' The brunette started chewing her bottom lip and Emma was mesmerised. Emma looked for Regina's hand it was amazing how good those two hands fitted together.

''It's too bad you probably won't remember this tomorrow, but I've liked you from the moment I laid eyes on you. I loved you from the moment you said to me I had thrown my phone away.''

Emma say the tears finally falling. Leaving a trail on her blushed cheeks. Emma rubbed them away with the tip of her thumb.

''Me too,'' was all Regina could say
