Here's Chapter 5! Things will start to become more interesting, at least I hope so.

Also I've had two reviews talking about rape culture, and I cannot see where that idea came from, because the OC Victoria is totally willing to be with Zelena, and if its because of Victoria's age, I can change that, even if its not the issue, but whatever. - She's 21 from now on.

Then I had another review asking about this all Zelena thing, the greenie witch is only with Victoria to piss off Regina :) Zelena isn't dumb and she knows that Victoria is Regina's soul-mate, so she's trying her best to keep Victoria closer and love her. (If Zelena ever loves Victoria, its not in a healthy way, but an obsession)

Also, this does not follow the Season 4, but it is after that season, and since we don't know how that season will end, I will just say that the Snow Queen isn't bad anymore, and that Elsa has her sister back and they are back in their kingdom, and so on. (Sarah Fisher will be in this chapter)

Anyway..

Enjoy! - Sorry for any typo.(There's no beta in this story, so if any of you readers want to be the beta of this story, just pm me.)

Chapter 5: Ice-cream

Grannys

When Victoria agreed to spend the afternoon with the three year old Liam, and the five year old Neal, this wasn't what she had in mind.

"No, Neal! Don't tou-"

*CRACK*

And it was too late, the little brunette boy with blue eyes like his father, had already touched few plates on the balcony of the Grannys and made the plates fall. She left him on the chair in front of the balcony, so he could act like a "big boy", he refused to sit on on the other tables, so she allowed him to stay there, but he couldn't remain quiet, he had to touch everything he saw.

Victoria even tried to put her hand under the plates, but she had little Liam on her lap, and she was holding him closer to her with her left hand, so when she stretched out her right one, she couldn't even grab one.

"Oh no, you are gonna get it little one!" Ruby shouted across from the other end of the balcony.

"No! I'm gonna tell mommy!" Neal shouted back and folded his arms in front of his chest. Ugh, he was indeed a spoiled prince.

"Oh yeah? And then what?"

"Then, she gonna spank your butt."

"Of cou- wait what, Snow spanks your ass?" Ruby asked, perking up an eyebrow.

"Of course she doesn't, Ruby. Neal just says this things to get away with anything, he believes people fear his mother because she's a queen." Victoria replayed Ruby with a roll of her eyes before take a bite of her eggs, and give a small piece of beard to Liam's hands, the boy still remained quiet on her lap, and he was indeed a beautiful toodler, with blond hair and blue eyes.

"The queen spanks people to get what she wants!" Neal remained with his chin held high.

"No, the queen only spanks when people don't behave, and breaking plates is not behaving." Another voice could be heard and this time it came from Regina, yes the mayor had stepped in when nobody noticed, probably because Neal was such big piece of work.

Victoria looked up, following the voice and then her big blue eyes landed on Regina's figure, she still had her mouth a bit full with eggs, so she showed a mouth closed smile.

"Mommy isn't going to spank me." Neal replayed as he stuck out his tongue towards Regina, still with his arms crossed in front of his chest.

Regina was actually taken back by Neal's reaction, she didn't actually thought the boy would stick out his tongue towards her, and maybe it bothered her, because this little figure right in front of her is the son of Snow and Charming.

"Neal!" Victoria gasped as she brought Liam more closer into her lap, before drop the fork over her plate. "Apologyze to madame mayor." Victoria frowned slightly at him. Snow gave her the permission to scold the boy if he misbehaved, it seems Snow always keeping him closer since he was a little baby, he become a spoiled mommas boy and also a hyper one.

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Just do it, Neal."

"I don't wanna!"

"But you have to!"

"Why?! She's evil!"

"Becau-..." Victoria was confused now, but she figured Neal was only calling Regina evil because of her words towards him, and she wasn't even mean to him. "She's not evil, Neal. You are being the bad boy here, so apologyze."

Regina simple gulped and clenched her jaw, she cannot believe Snow spoke to her son in such manner, of course the two still had their bitter moments, but she couldn't believe Snow still spoke that the evil queen was Regina, she thought they made their "apologizies" and put this all behind. Regina wasn't that person anymore, and she felt damn glad that Victoria didn't put so much thought into the boy words.

"Sorry.." Neal spoke very low.

"Louder, mister." Victoria shot him another glare and she felt like she was even his mother, but if she really was there was no way her son would be like this, at least she would try her best to fix his actions.

"I'm sorry!" Neal shouted this time, and shoved a big piece of bread into his mouth, so he didn't had to speak anymore, his mother always told him to not speak with mouth full, so.

Victoria simple rolled her eyes and huffed out, she was about to scold him again, but Regina spoke first.

"It's okay. Here..." Regina searched through her bag and found some honey lozenges, it would be enough to make the boy's mouth sweet and at least make him forget that she's evil, for some odd reason she had to prove him she was not. "A reward for apologyzing." Regina gave a small and a bit forced smile.

Neal looked up at Regina still with his mouth full with bread, and when she gave him the honey lozenges, he kept his big blue eyes locked on hers and slowly began to chew on the bread, he was looking at her with that "I still don't trust you" look, but he still wanted the candy, so he took it from Regina's hand, and held it closer to him.

Victoria smiled at Regina's actions before look back down at Neal. "What do you say?"

Neal swallowed the bread in his mouth and began to unwrap the paper from the honey lozenges. "Thank you, madame mayor." The little boy probably had some issue with personality, because he was now the happy Neal, but the hyper side never left him tho. He put the candy in his mouth, and groaned in pleasure as he began to suck on it.

"My pleasure." Regina replayed before look back at Ruby, and the redhead already knew what the mayor wanted, so she went prepare her usual coffee.

"I wonder if candy does an opposite effect on him.." Victoria mumbled as she watched Neal enjoying his candy, since the boy is so hyper, maybe having sugar in him would calm him down, or was that with coke? perhaps coffee? Will it work with ice-cream? Because she's dying for an ice-cream right now, she doesn't know why, but she really needs an ice-cream.

"Perhaps." Regina smiled at Victoria and when she was about to enjoy the view right in front of her, somebody decided to show up at the diner, and of course, the one and only Zelena.

"Elena." Victoria mumbled the name with a soft smile before look past Regina and see the tall redhead woman standing in front of the door.

Zelena's blue eyes landed on Victoria, the two little kids, and of course, Regina, oh this was going to be interesting. "Hello, me love." Zelena said as she approached Victoria, and leaned forward, pecking the young woman's lips softly.

Victoria smiled at the gesture. "I thought you would be busy."

"I decided to leave my paintings alone for a couple of hours, and join the afternoon with you." Zelena answered, and when she finished her words Liam clapped his hands, like a reminder that he was still there on Victoria's lap, while Neal just kept enjoying his candy, and Regina refused herself to watch Zelena and Victoria interact like that. "And of course the little ones.." Zelena made it sound like they were a happy family just to make Regina's stomach turn even more.

"I'm glad, I was actually thinking about getting them some ice-cream now." Victoria replayed her as she looked down at Liam and then turned around, jumping off the chair, she slowly placed Liam on the ground but still held his hand, as the three year old boy looked up at Victoria. "Ice-cream!" He said with his excited tiny voice.

"Awesome!" Neal gasped as he quickly jumped off the chair and rushed towards to door to open it for Victoria, so they could leave right now and get ice-cream quickly.

"Yes, ice-cream." Victoria smiled down at Liam and then her eyes landed on Neal who was by the door right now, she didn't wanted the boy to get off the diner without her by his side, so she was already walking towards there.

Zelena allowed Victoria to go first, but then followed the young woman, when she passed right by her sister side, she mumbled some words. "That's right sis, she's mine, so you better back off, there's no way she's going with you, specially after she finds out you are the evil queen." Zelena grinned at her own words and kept on walking, right after Victoria and the two little ones who were already leaving the diner.

Regina clenched her fists and remained a bit shocked at Zelena's words, she was still the damn wicked witch without her powerful magic, she was still going to destroy Regina's happiness, and she was going to take the most important thing in her life, which is her soul-mate, her happy ending, when will it ever come?! Probably never now, since Zelena is thinking about telling Victoria about the all evil things Regina done.

"Hum, you okay, Regina?" Ruby asked as she perked up an eyebrow and placed her coffee on the balcony in front of her.

"Yes." Regina mumbled as she took the cup of coffee closer to her.

"I don't like to put my nose in the other peoples business, but I just wanted to tell ya, that there's no way that thing will last." Ruby replayed as she pointed at the door, she was clearly talking about Victoria and Zelena. "I mean, come on, if I had to pick between you two, I would pick you, way hotter and younger."

Regina perked up an eyebrow as she looked at Ruby, was this woman serious? "I-...thank you?"

"Yeah, no problemo, gal. Did you remembered when we all watched that movie of snow? And when Henry got all embarrassed so sudden? Well that's because Victoria whispered to him that she would do the evil queen, of course it was the one in the movie, since she doesn't know its you, but I literally laughed my ass off when she told me this!" Ruby laughed out loud again.

Regina almost choked in her own coffee when she heard Ruby's words, and she felt a blush show up slowly upon her cheeks. "Pardon me?"

"Yeah, kinky bitch, right?" Ruby simple kept her laugh before calm herself down. "But anyway. She's your soul-mate after all, she will be yours, no worries." And with that Ruby simple walked away to take the other people's orders.

Regina still had that blush upon her cheeks, and she took a deep breath before look back down at her dark coffee, despite the entire situation, she couldn't help but feel pleased that Victoria held such thoughts of her, or of the actress in the movie, but either way, she would think those thoughts were for her and only her.

Any Given Sundae

At some point Victoria, Zelena, and the two toddlers arrived the ice-cream shop, they were both excited to get ice-cream, but the one more excited was Neal, obviously, and he kept rushing his steps, keeping himself always away from them, till Zelena decided to grab Neal's wrist and hold him closer, Victoria could do it but Liam was lap boy, and he preferred to be on Victoria's arms than walk.

Zelena pushed the door open and they all stepped inside the chilly store.

"Finally some place that has the perfect temperature." Victoria mumbled as she held Liam against her side.

"Ice-cream!" Neal yelped as he rushed his way towards the glass as he started to pick which flavour he prefered.

Victoria smiled at Neal's reaction, and then she felt Liam moving on her side, the boy clearly wanted to go after his toddler uncle and pick with him, so she placed the boy down and allowed him to go after Neal.

"Ah new faces, welcome." Sarah Fisher spoke as she stepped closer to the balcony and looked at Zelena and Victoria, so this was the storybrooke's new visitor, of course the brunette young woman was already here for more than a month, but this was only the first time Sarah saw her, and an uneasy feeling hit her hard, for some odd reason this young woman seemed familiar. "But you guys aren't so new." Sarah smiled when her eyes landed on the two little ones.

"Hello, thank you." Victoria smiled at Sarah's welcome and she stepped forward, getting herself behind the boys and helping him out decide what they wanted, she even squat down to be more at their level.

Zelena simple remained behind Victoria, and looked at Sarah Fisher, this two knew each other, everybody knew who Zelena was, the wicked witch, and Zelena knew this was the same Snow Queen that gave everybody a big trouble few years ago, so its no wonder that they sent each other a deadly glare.

"I decided! I want chocolate." Neal spoke.

"Banilla!" Little Liam said, still confusing the letters "v" to "b".

"Coming right up." Sarah ignored Zelena and went to get the little ones ice-cream, for Neal she gave him a cone, but for Liam she gave him a cup, so he wouldn't do much mess. When that was done, her eyes landed on Victoria's figure, and once again she felt that nostalgia feeling. "Anything I can get you?"

Victoria smiled down at the boys, before look back up at Sarah when she spoke. "Oh, right...Hum, perhaps the mint chocolate chip one?"

"As you wish." Sarah kept her friendly mask, as she got a cone with mint chocolate chip ice cream for Victoria. "Here you go." She wrapped a paper around the cane and then handed it to Victoria, the both brushed fingers with each other, and that was the final clue that Sarah needed to know where she saw Victoria before.

Victoria felt a strange touch between the two of them, but she decided to ignore. "Thank you very much..How much is it?" Victoria was already searching through her purse with her free hand.

"This one is on me." Zelena spoke as she stepped forward, removing her wallet from her purse.

"No, Ele-" Victoria was about to refuse Zelena's offer, but then Sarah spoke.

"No need to pay, this one shall be on me. Just enjoy your ice-cream." Sarah's remained on the Zelena, and they were going back to that staring contest, it held back that dangerous look, and even possessiveness, was this because of Victoria?

Victoria looked between Zelena and Sarah, and frowned slightly, she could feel a weird atmosphere around them at this very moment, so she decided to just change subject. "Well then, thank you once again for your kindness."

Sarah finally stopped looking at Zelena and then looked back at Victoria. "My pleasure, dear."

Victoria noded at Sarah then looked down at the two little boys who were busy licking their ice-cream. "What do you say, guys?"

"Thank you!" Both said happily before shove their mouths with ice-cream again.

Sarah and Victoria laughed at this moment, while Zelena was still feeling uneasy around this boys, since they were children of her enemy, or ex-enemy, either way, Zelena doesn't forget, but she isn't planning on hurting anybody, at least phsyical, but now mentally, that's a whole different story.

"Well, goodbye, and thank you again." Victoria thanked Sarah again and started to lick her ice-cream, as the boys got themselves closer to Victoria and left the store with her while they all licked their ice-creams.

Zelena was the last one leaving, why? Because she left a warning. "Keep your distance, she's mine." She mumbled those words to Sarah and then turned around to leave the store.

Sarah clenched her fists as the balcony under her palms were slowly turning into ice, whenever they were all gone, she took a deep breath and then calmed down her magic, she had to do something, there was no way she was going to leave Zelena closer to Victoria, not now. She had to do something, and she would need help, and she already had in mind who to ask help from.

Mayor's Office

Regina sat on her chair behind her desk, as she was filling few papers and reading them, even if she seemed so focused on her paperwork, her mind was elsewhere, her mind was thinking about Victoria, about the first time she saw her almost dead body over her crashed car, the first time the girl showed such excitement and happiness whenever they spoke alone without having anybody around to disturb them, the time she healed Victoria's small scratch on her elbow after running after Robin, the time they watched the movie together, the time they decided to play football where she found out about Victoria's tattoo and how happy yet extreme depressed she felt at such view, and finally at this time today where Victoria was taking care of the small princes, and held such kind smile to her. Yup, Regina was totally falling in love for a woman that she didn't spent enough time with to know more of her.

The silence filled her office, till somebody decided to step in, at first she thought it would the Sheriff, but the sound of high-heels made her think twice about that, and then the mystery figure finally showed up and it was Sarah Fisher, the Snow Queen. Regina looked up at Sarah and frowned slightly, hoping this wouldn't be another problem the Snow Queen decided to bring to her. "May I help you?"

Sarah stepped inside the elegant office and got herself more closer to Regina's table, but the Snow Queen clearly showed that she wasn't here to do any harm, the slight worried frown on her face was enough to let Regina know this woman needed help, and not a fight. "I need your help."

Regina dropped the pen over the papers and leaned her back against her chair as she folded her arms in front of her chest. "I'm listening."

"Today Zelena and the new Storybrooke member, Victoria showed up at my ice-cream store with the two little princes."

"Yes, I am aware."

"When they were leaving, Zelena told me to keep my distance because Victoria 'belonged her'. It was clearly a threat and I fear for Victoria's safety." Sarah gulped as she felt a bit nervous while speaking about this matter to Regina.

Regina frowned at such words and huffed out. "That woman clearly has no respect. But why does Victoria's safety concerns you? I do know Zelena is still the wicked witch, and while we all try to change, she certainly has not, but her magic is not powerful anymore, she cannot harm people with it."

"Magic isn't the only thing that can harm us, I believe you are well aware in this world without magic, there's still bunch of other weapons out there to harm the other person."

"Yes, you are correct. However Zelena is not interested on hurting Victoria, I believe she's more interested on leaving the young woman on her arms and all happy so she can make me jealous."

"Jealous? Why would she want that?"

Crap... "Obviously our rivalry as sisters still remained between us, so of course she will do anything to make me feel uneasy."

"That still doesn't answer my question. Why would that make you feel uneasy? I'm aware that some kind of relationship developed between them, since there's no other gossip around this town but that."

"Perhaps if you tell me why you are so concern about Victoria's safety, I will tell you why it would make me feel uneasy."

Sarah frowned at Regina. "I will tell you if you promise to not tell anybody and if you help me confirm if I am right or not."

"Alright, I'm not a snitch, and I will see what I can do."

The Snow Queen took a deep breath and finally answered. "She's my daughter."
