A/N: Day 5 Best Friend Romance

Okay here's Day 5.

Enjoy.

"Okay, Reggie. Whatever you say." Emma threw her hands up in defeat knowing she wasn't getting anywhere.

Regina turned so quick Emma thought she could have literally broken something if it wasn't for her gracefulness. Regina glared at her for a moment before she spoke low and slow.

"I told you to not call me that, Miss Swan." Regina crossed her arms conveying how much she hated the nickname.

"Why not? You call me Miss Swan all the time and you know I hate it." Emma argued a shrug.

"Yes, Miss Swan, because that is your name. My name is not, and will never be, Reggie." Regina argued back in disgust.

Emma thought for a moment, letting Regina think she'd won, before she asked "What's my first name, Regina?"

Regina scoffed like it was the stupidest question ever and answered without thinking. "Emma."

Emma smirked at Regina having walked in her semi-laid trap. "Exactly! So why is it that you seem to think Miss is my first name." Emma laughed at her logic and continued. "So yeah, Swan, may be my last name, but it doesn't make Miss Swan my name... You see what I'm saying here, Reggie?" Emma finished as she raised her eyebrows in challenge.

Reginas eyes widened at being challenged and answered after handing Emma her beer quite forcefully. "Yes. I understand what you are saying but Miss, Mrs, and Mr are a way to say a person's name respectfully." She knows it's weak but she really can't come up with anything else.

It'd been 3 years since Emma became the dark one, and two since Robin decided he wanted to be a complete part of Zelena and the baby's life. Emma was the first to hand the man's ass to him then Regina did when her patience ran out. So, to say the least, the two woman have been thick as thieves since then. Snow didn't, and still doesn't, like their friendship, but that only made them closer. This is only one of the many times they had had this conversation and Emma has been getting better at her retorts every time so Regina was beginning to loose her footing on the subject.

"Really? Because every time you call me that it doesn't make me feel very respected." Emma smirked again after taking a long swig from her beer.

"That's because you have problems with recognizing tone." Regina said and then proceeded to down her glass of wine to cover the eye roll she did at herself.

"Robin got to call you Gina." Emma fired.

"And do you see him now?" Regina answered quickly.

"I just don't see why I can't call you that!"

"Because I said so!"

"You're so difficult! So you're saying he can call you Gina but me, your bestfriend, can't give you a nickname!?" Emma asked loudly.

"No."

"No? That's it? You have no reason why just... No?"

"Emma, just leave it alone." Regina said pleadingly.

Emma just laughed and repeated what she said earlier. "Okay. Whatever you say, Reggie."

"Emma!" Regina yelled as she stood up and stomped to be right infront of Emmas face.

"Yes?" Emma said smugly as she stood up into Reginas personal space.

"Shut. Up." Regina had a fire in her eyes that even Emma would be scared of if she didn't know what Regina was really like.

Emma pouted and placed her hands on Reginas shoulders as she spoke. "It's okay, Reggie. I know you secretly love it just like you secretly keep that bag of M&Ms in your third nightstand drawer."

Regina smacked the other woman's hands off her shoulders and stood shocked at what she had just heard.

"I..."

"Really, Reggie, it's o-"

"Emma! Shut up!"

Emma smirked deviously and kept pushing. "Make. Me."

Regina didn't know what compelled her to do it, but she shot forward a couple inches and kissed Emma Swans smug look, and words, away.

Emma reciprocated for only a second before snapping back with wild eyes and dropped her beer bottle before transporting home. Regina opened her eyes just in time to find the mist clearing and shook her head at her own stupidity. "Dammit."

Emma had been avoiding Regina and Regina had been chasing Emma. Or at least that's what it seemed like to Regina because Emma was beginning to think the same thing. When one of them was somewhere looking the other was looking in a different place. It had become a huge game of cat and mouse though neither knew they were both cat and mouse at the same time. Untill the following Monday.

Regina wasn't able to get her coffee from Grannys in the mornings so she didn't see Emma waiting an extra hour for her. Emma had a call to find Pongo so Regina threw away the grilled cheese she had bought for their weekly lunch. Emma was becoming tired of the game and she needed to apologize for panicking and Regina was making it hard for her. Regina was past irritated with this child's play and she just needed to apologize for the kiss so they could get back to where they were.

Emma was pacing infront of her mirror before she turned and looked at herself saying, "Fuck it!" and transporting to Reginas door.

Regina decided that she would relax tonight and wait for Emma at the station tomorrow so they could talk. Untill she heard a soft knock on the door.

"Emma?" Regina asked when she opened the door to a nervous Emma Swan.

"Can I come in?"

Regina nodded and stepped back. When Emma was inside she couldn't wait any longer to get anything off of her chest. Her being Emma though had to start with her own brand of humor.

"You won."

"At what?" Regina pursed her lips and crossed her arms.

"Shutting me up." Emma snickered and Regina rolled her eyes while smiling.

"I guess I did. It's a first. Shutting you up, that is." Regina fired off and walked to the living room.

When they were sat down Emma and Regina spoke at the same time.

"I'm sorry I panicked."

"I'm sorry I kissed you."

Emma scrunched her eyebrows at Reginas apology. "What?"

Regina shrugged and looked down. "I don't know why I did."

Emma just watched as the Regina she knew left the room leaving an insecure, and vulnerable shell of herself. She moved to the couch Regina was sat at and cupped the other woman's cheek before she spoke.

"I hope you did it because you wanted to..." Emma pulled there faces closer and forced Reginas eyes to hers before continuing. "Because I wanted to."

Emma kissed Regina softly trying to show the woman that she had wanted the kiss indeed and she wasn't sorry for it at all. Regina kissed back just as softly with just the tiniest of sounds coming out before they pulled back slowly and blushed at the moment shared. Emma dropped her hands back from Reginas face and rubbed her legs nervously.

"I don't want you to call me Reggie because Robin called me Gina. I don't want to think of him when I'm with you. Plus, Emma, you know me when have I ever been one for pet names?"

"Aww so Miss Swan isn't my pet name?" Emma pouted.

Regina shook her head and huffed out a long breath. "Emma, do you ever shut up?"

Emma wiggled her eyebrows. "Only when you make me apparently."

Regina pulled her in and kissed her again. "Now will you shut up?"

Emma smiled wistfully with her eyes still closed and joked again. "Does this mean we are friends again?"

Regina laughed and kissed the woman chastely before answering. "If this is what you do with friends then I don't think you need anyone else but me."

"Are you trying to tell me something right now?"

Regina blushed and nodded waiting for Emma to open her eyes. When Emma opened her eyes to find Regina staring right at her she was a little caught off by the unreadable gaze.

"What?"

"Would you go on a date with me, Emma Swan?"

"Hell yeah!" Emma said quickly not willing to loose the chance.

Regina laughed for a moment before she saw how Emma had been looking at her with her head tilted slightly to the left. "What?"

"You have been ignoring me all week and when I finally do catch up to you you beat me to the punch?"

"You have been ignoring me!"

Emma eyed her suspiciously. "I even went to the benches and you weren't there so I think it's safe to say you were ignoring me!"

"I bought your disgusting grilled cheese today just to throw it away because you never showed up!" Regina challenged.

"I waited for a whole extra hour for you every morning at 6:30 and you never came!" Emma raised her voice a pitch higher to match Reginas.

Regina began laughing hard at that and Emma only grew more and more frustrated that long she did. "What the hell is so funny!?"

"Well, Emma if you would have listened at any of the meetings last week you would have known that I wasn't going to be at the office at normal time due to building work. So I have been going in an hour later everyday for the past week and I was at Grannys every one of those days at precisely 8:15 instead of 7 o'clock like normal." Regina replied while still chuckling every few words.

Emma sat shocked and confused for a moment before she smacked her forehead. Her head snapped up when she had thought for a moment and she pointed an accusatory finger in the other woman's direction.

"I even went to one of those damn PTA meetings at Henrys school and you weren't there!"

Regina looked away and blushed speaking quietly. "I don't really go to those."

"I knew it!" Emma pumped her fist.

"Shut up." Regina said just as quietly as she shook her head.

Emma turned quickly while a mischievous smile formed on her face and spoke challengingly. "Make me."
