CHAPTER FIVE

WHAT IS SHE HIDING? …OR WHO?

''Now let's get down to business.'' Nev said.

Regina and Zelena nodded and look at his laptop to see the information they reached, but Nev closed the laptop and looked at Max and Regina.

''Have you talked to Emma yet?'' Max asked.

''Yes, I was talking to her before heading down here… why?''

''Well, yesterday… Max and I were looking for information about Emma, we searched her phone number and…'' He opens the laptop to show her the information they found. ''It seems like the phone number belongs to Emma Swan'' Regina looked closely.

''Emma Swan?'' Nev nodded. ''She's not Nolan…'' Max nodded and Zelena put her arm around her sister's shoulders. ''Why would she lie to me about that? Why she didn't tell me she's Swan and not Nolan?''

''We really don't know. But that's not all…'' Nev looks back from his laptop to Regina. ''You told me she has Instagram and Twitter only, right?'' Regina nodded. ''Well, have you searched for her on Facebook?''

''No… no, I haven't.'' Regina said dejectedly. ''Don't tell me she has one.'' She muttered. Nev and Max looked at each other knowingly. ''She does… does she?'' Max nodded.

''I'm sorry, Gina.'' Zelena said with sadness in her eyes. Regina shook her head.

''Show me her Facebook page.'' Regina said. Nev searched for her Facebook and showed it to Regina.

Regina felt betrayed, she was honest with Emma and what does she gets? Lies and more lies. Regina never felt so hurt in her life. How could someone be like this? What had she done to Emma to make her lie to her? In this moment, she never felt so relieved to had contacted Nev and Max to discover all this, that Emma lied to her, not all of it but still.

''At least it's the same girl, right?'' Zelena asked.

''Yes, she's still the same girl. But she has a secret.'' Nev said. Regina and Zelena looked at him, waiting for him to continue. ''We talked to a girl named Ruby, who seems to be her best friend, she's also her sister-in-law because she's dating Emma's brother August.''

''I know about August.''

''Have you talked to him?''

''Yes.''

''Okay, well she wasn't lying to you about him at all. Still, Ruby never heard a single word about you.'' Max said and Regina sighed and looked down.

''We talked to her and she told us that we should talk to August. She gave us his number and we called him. Something curious happened… He told us about a guy named Neal, who broke up with her before she told him something… and that's when he stopped talking and changed the subject.'' Nev finished.

''Well, I've heard about Neal, he's Emma's ex. She told him something that made him abandon her but she never told me what is was.'' Regina said still looking down at the floor, blinking rapidly to keep herself from crying. ''And I never asked again because I didn't want to push any further.''

''Well, now we see if she wants to meet you. Do you mind if we call her?'' Nev asked and Regina shakes her head a no.

''Go ahead.'' He dials Emma's number and goes outside to call her. At the fourth ring, she finally answers.

''Swan.''

''Ah, yeah. Are you Emma Swan?''

''Yeah. Who is this?''

''I'm Nev Schulman, from the TV Show Catfish. Have you heard of the show?'' Nev said.

''Um, yeah. I've seen the show.'' Emma replied.

''Good, because I was wondering if you would like to meet your…friend Regina? She really wants to meet you.''

''Oh, now? I don't know, I'm not ready yet.''

''If you're not ready now, when?'' Nev asked and he swear that he heard her sigh on the other line. Emma knew he was right, August was right too. If she declines, she might lose her and a chance of happiness and Regina will be heartbroken. It's now or never, but what about Kate? Her little Katie. She hadn't told Regina anything… what's going to happen?

It's worth a risk…

Right?

Emma nodded. ''Let's do it. When and where?''

''Great! Well, how about we get to Tallahassee and we meet you there?''

''Sure, I know some places we can meet.''

''Good. So I'll tell Regina to get ready-''

''Nev, tell her to get ready for what she's about to see… Please.'' Emma pleaded. A voice in her mind keeps saying that she will leave her, but there's a tiny voice inside her, encouraging her to try.

''Don't worry, I'll tell her. See you in Tallahassee.''

''Bye Nev'' with that, she hung up and ran to August while Nev walked back inside the mansion.

Max, Regina and Zelena were talking about Emma and what she's hiding. Nobody knows and they will not know until they meet her. Nev walked in the living room and cleared his throat to make his presence known. Everyone looked up at him.

''So… what happened?'' Max asked his friend.

''Well…''

''OUT WITH IT!'' Regina and Zelena chorused. Sure, the Mills sisters has no patience at all.

''Regina, get packing. We're going to Tallahassee.'' Regina gaped at him, wide eyed. She stood up from the sofa and ran to him to hug him tight. He was surprised at first but seconds later, he hugged her back.

''We're going to meet Emma…'' Regina said with teary eyes and Zelena stood up to hug her little sister.

''You're going to meet Emma. It's about damn time!'' Everyone in the room started laughing and Regina playfully punched her in her left arm. ''How about some takeout from Granny's to celebrate?'' Everyone nodded and she took out her phone to call Granny.

While in Tallahassee, Emma, Ruby, August and Kate went for some ice cream; Kate's petition. Kate noticed her mother was distracted and looked through the window. August and Ruby were talking animatedly until they noticed Kate staring at Emma.

''Kat, why don't you and Ruby go and add one more topping to your ice cream? You want that?'' Kate nodded enthusiastically and stood up from her chair and took Ruby's hand while August looked at Emma and called her name.

''Emma?''

''Mhm?'' Emma mumbled.

''You okay?''

''Yeah… just thinking.''

''Ems, you've been like this since that call. Who was that?'' August asked.

''Nev…''

''Wait, Nev called you?'' Emma nodded. ''Well, what did he say?''

''He said that Regina wants to meet me and-''

''And what?'' August cut her off.

''I said yes. August, I'm not sure how this is going to go… what about Kate?'' Emma said.

''She will love her.'' August assured Emma. ''Everything is going to be okay, at first it's not going to be easy, but don't give up just there.''

''Sure. Thank you August.'' Emma smiled. When August opened his mouth to talk, Kate came into view and ran to her mother so she can try her new topping.

''Mommy! Try this!'' Kate giggled.

''What's that? Chocolate?'' Emma asked.

''No.'' She giggled again. ''It's coffee.''

''What!?'' Emma shrieked. ''RUBY!''

Ruby laughed hard at Emma's face and Kate couldn't hold it anymore, she started laughing too. August joined seconds later and Emma glared at her best friend, trying to hold her laugh. ''Not funny, Rubes.''

''Aw come on, Em. It was funny and Kate was the one with the idea.''

''And you agreed. What kind of aunt are you?'' Emma said with a smirk.

''The coolest one on Earth. Right, Katie Kat?'' Kate nodded giggling and Ruby grinned.

''Still, Kate's too little for coffee.''

''Why?'' Kate asked.

''Because it's only a drink for older people, not kids.'' Emma said. ''It will make you hyper and crazy.''

''Do you all have coffee?'' Kate asked innocently.

''Yeah, why?''

''I don't want to go old. You said older people drink it, I won't drink it because it will make me old.'' There was just silence and nobody said a word until Ruby took a hand on her mouth, trying not to laugh at her niece's occurrence.

OUATCATFISH

Storybrooke, Maine

Mifflin Street

Regina and her family were at the table eating dinner, the only one who knew she was going to Tallahassee in two days, was Zelena. But now, she needs to tell her parents about this. Cora knew about Nev and Max and have seen the show once or twice and she knew why her daughter contacted them. She was hoping she meets her friend soon. Dinner went smoothly and everyone, except Cora, went to the living room to watch a movie.

''Mother?'' Regina called after opening the door of her mother's study.

''Yes, Regina?''

''I have to tell you something…''

''I was waiting for you to talk… you've been quiet all diner. Even Zelena noticed.'' Cora looked at her. ''What is it, dear?''

''I'm going to Tallahassee.'' Regina blurted out.

''You… wait, what?'' Cora said. Checking if she heard right.

''I will go to Tallahassee to meet Emma with Nev and Max.'' Regina said. ''I really want to go and meet her, I need to know with who I was talking all these years, Mother. Please…'' Regina pleaded but her mother cut her off.

''You can go.''

Regina shut her mouth. Looking at her mother wide eyed, she wasn't expecting that answer.

Her mother could be surprising sometimes.

''What?'' She whispered.

''I said, Regina. That you can go to Tallahassee and meet Emma.'' Cora said with a small smile. Regina smiled wide and hugged her.

''Thank you, Mother''

''Anytime, Regina. But you have to promise me to call for updates.'' Regina laughed silently and nodded. She walked back to the living room to find her little brother sleeping in her father's arms and Zelena still awake, enjoying the movie.

''Hey, Zelena.'' Regina whispered.

''Hey, Gina. Did you tell Mother about your trip?'' Zelena asked.

''Yes, and she said it was okay. Which it was surprising.''

Zelena started laughing. ''Mother sure is surprising. I can't believe she said yes, all the times I asked her, she says no. Remember?''

''Yes, she did but this is important.''

''I know. Good luck over there.''

Regina nodded. ''I was hoping if you want to come with me.''

''Woah, sis. Are you serious about this?'' Zelena said with a shocked expression. She never expected her sister inviting her to meet Emma or any other trip.

''Yes, what if something happens?''

''Regina. Everything will be okay, you go and meet her. It's a big step for you.''

''I want you to be there, with me.'' Zelena smiled and hugged her sister.

''I will.''

''So, you're going with me?'' Regina asked with eyes full of hope.

''Yes.'' Zelena nodded. ''We're going to meet Emma.''
