And rest assured that drama is coming towards our two lead ladies soon... No beta, all done by me, so sorry for any mistakes you may find. I hope you enjoy.
Regina was already tired of having the blue eyed brunette following her from side to side. The moment the two of them met it became to clear to her that Katherine's suspicions about the young intern's crush were not false. The woman had gushed every known fact about her and even some that she had never heard off. From the laughs she got from Katherine it seemed that the even funny, but in reality she was just quite bored and annoyed by the brunette.
"Dr. Mills!" she heard a shrieking voice scream for her from afar.
Regina closed her eyes and begged for patience before turning around and seeing a short brunette stop abruptly in front of her. She acknowledged the intern with a head gesture and waited for her to speak and tell her the purpose of her presence. Instead, the woman just kept on staring at her in complete awe and without shame. Regina saw Katherine nudging her and telling her with her eyes 'I told you so'.
"Yes?" Regina interrupted the girl from her continued gazing.
"I... well I..." the brunette stuttered before taking a deep breath. "I am your intern for the day Dr. Mills."
"Ok." Regina replied simply and heard Katherine cackle. She ignored the two women and walked towards the reception of Cardio.
"My name is Belle French." she said and Regina nodded again. "And I have been so looking forward to meeting you since I started working here. You are like my inspiration." Belle kept on rambling.
Regina managed to smile softly. Please be 9pm already, she begged to the skies. Behind her she knew Katherine was following her and trying not to laugh out-loud at the brunette's awkwardness with the intern.
"You know I have read every paper you have published and learned every research method you have employed." Belle said excitedly.
"Thank you?" Regina said and Katherine cackled again.
"You are truly amazing Dr. Mills." Belle whispered. "I just hope to become one day like you."
"Ok, ok, enough with the fangirling French." Katherine finally took mercy on her and scolded the intern. "Didn't you want to actually learn from Dr. Mills?"
"Of course!" Belle almost screamed. "Nothing would make me happier."
"Then delegate dear." Katherine told Regina who nodded absently.
"Please read this patient file and then go to the patient's room and answer any questions they may possibly have." Regina told her while handling her some fields. "And after that go and ask the OR staff if they are aware of my scheduled surgery."
Belle nodded enthusiastically and hopped to the patient's room.
"She is quite energetic." Katherine noted while standing next to Regina who groaned.
"It's too early for that level of energy."
"She totally has the hots for you." Katherine whispered and Regina gagged.
"Not interested." she whispered to Katherine who chuckled. "And no weird innuendo things or attempts to get the girl hopeful." she threatened.
"Of course I won't.. You are with someone already!" Katherine feigned shock. "What kind of woman would I be if I encouraged you to cheat."
"To cheat?!" Regina raised her voice and got weird looks from the nurses of Cardio.
"On Emma." Katherine said softly.
"I would never cheat on Emma." Regina said angrily.
Katherine nodded. "Well yeah, I mean with someone like Emma I wouldn't be interested in anyone else neither." she said conspiratorially. "But then again, Belle doesn't know that."
"Even if the whole hospital knew that." Regina said angrily. "I would never cheat on Emma because I really like her Katherine. To me she is not just a fling."
"She is the real deal?" Katherine asked surprised.
"I know it's too soon, and hell, we just met like four days ago, but I just have this feeling that keeps bugging me, telling me to give Emma a chance." Regina admitted while looking around the hall. "And it feels wonderful to just let it go."
Katherine nodded in understanding. "That happened to me when I met David. It was like an all powerful force decided that we were meant to meet and fall in love."
"You truly love him, do you?" Regina asked sweetly.
"With all my heart." Katherine replied softly. "Even through our darkest times I always loved him."
"Darkest times?" Regina asked softly.
"When we moved to Storybrooke I saw that David was acting weird and distant. Not at all like he did when we meet in Washington." Katherine whispered and took Regina to one of the patient rooms. "It took me a while to realize it but I learned that David was cheating on me."
"I am so sorry Katherine." Regina whispered and grabbed her friend's hand. "Seeing the two of you now I would have never suspected that something like that happened."
"Of course you wouldn't." Katherine agreed. "And when it did happen you were quite young and worried about your own life to notice the sorrows of mine."
"Did you find out who the other woman was?"
Katherine shook her head. "When I confronted David he admitted to cheating on me, saying that he was truly sorry and that he couldn't ask enough times for my forgiveness. I tried to ask the name of the woman but he was adamant about not telling me. Practically begged and promised me anything if he didn't have to tell me her name."
"And you accepted this?" Regina asked shocked.
"I was scared of being alone." Katherine confessed softly. "And I thought that not knowing would make it easier for me to forgive him."
Regina nodded in understanding. "And did you?
"Did I what Gina?"
"Did you forgive him?"
"Katherine shook her head and smiled softly. "He still asks me that same question every day." she whispered and left the room.
Regina immediately sat down in one of the chairs and took a deep, calming breath. The last thing she expected to discover today was that the perfect marriage of David and Katherine Nolan was all a big lie. It was sad to see how fooled they had all the people of Storybrooke into making them believe they were living a fairytale. She also felt anger towards David and for cheating on such a wonderful and sweet woman. Then again, she wanted to hit Katherine for her weakness and not demanding the name of the woman that David cheated with. It was truly unfair, and yet this made her realize that trust didn't necessarily come with years. It came with understanding, support and friendship, which were things she felt Emma and her shared in common. Life was not insured for anyone, and life didn't care about your name or relationship status because when it wanted to mess with you it messed with you.
"Dr. Mills, I am done with telling the patient about the procedure and asking the OR team about your surgery." Belle interrupted her.
"Good." Regina said. "Do you have any questions about the procedure Miss French?"
"I have questions." Belle whispered. "But they are not exactly about the procedure.
Regina looked at the intern intrigued.
"You see, there have some rumors going on about you not seeing Locksley anymore..." Belle said while looking at Regina deeply. "And I was wondering if that meant that you were single."
"That is a very personal question Miss French." Regina managed to scold her without blushing. "And last time I checked this is a teaching hospital, not rumor mill."
Belle blushed deeply and stared at the floor." Of course Dr. Mills." she stuttered.
"My personal life, and that includes the people I get involved with outside of this hospital, are my own business." Regina said angrily. "And one thing I truly do not tolerate are gossipy people. Do you gossip Miss French?"
She saw the color drain from Belle's face, and the blush that was previously adorning her face left as quickly as it came.
"No, of course not Dr. Mills." Belle stuttered while staring at Regina with puppy eyes. Seriously, interns and their idea that they can get whatever they want with that stare, Regina scoffed mentally.
"Don't ever repeat that mistake again." Regina said seriously and then felt her phone vibrate. Taking it out while glancing at Belle she quickly opened the text.
"Regina could you please meet me in room 108?" she saw it was Emma and her heart immediately jumped in panic.
Emma was supposed to be learning with Gold and yet here she was asking to meet her. Something wrong must have gone on with her, something that made her need Regina. Without hesitating she looked at Belle, instructed her to page her the moment they were ready to move the patient to the OR, and immediately bolted out of the Cardio ward and ran towards room 10, on the way earning the stare of nurses and doctors alike.
"Regina." she heard an accented voice speak from behind her.
She stopped because of the shock and quickly turned around to see Robin Locksley looking at her with the same puppy eyes that she saw in Belle a few minutes ago.
"I cannot and won't talk to you." Regina whispered angrily.
"I wanted to apologize Regina. I had quite a lot to drink and wasn't in complete control of what I was doing."
"Really, you are going to blame it on the alcohol?" Regina said incredulously. "Anyway, I truly don't care because I already told you that I don't want anything with you."
Robin looked at her completely hurt and grabbed her hand. "It's because you are already seeing someone else, isn't it?" he accused her angrily.
"What I do and who I see is my own business." Regina spat back. "And even if you were the last man on earth and the future of humanity depended on us I would still refuse to be with you because you are a pig." she raised her voice and earned some glances from surprised nurses.
"Yeah, a pig you fucked and enjoyed to fuck for a while." Robin said evilly.
"That's where we differ." Regina said back without flinching an eye. "I've had better."
"You bitch!" Robin screamed and the whole room stared at them.
"This conversation is over." Regina said coldly. "Do not try to contact me, stop or talk to me again. And I will want to work with another nurse from now on, starting with my surgery today at 3pm."
Robin looked at her in a complete state of denial, somehow unable to believe how the conversation became a request for replacement. He truly felt that Regina and him belonged together, and hell if he was going to stop until Regina finally realized what he already knew was a reality.
"I will never stop trying to earn your love." Robin whispered vehemently and Regina almost gagged. "But I will do what you ask and give you some space, starting with a nurse replacement. Maybe that way you'll see what you are missing." he finished while pointing at himself as if that explained it all. "That person won't be good enough for you."
Regina felt herself smiling, and approaching him she whispered right next to his ear. "No, she is way more than good." she finished and continued her way, suddenly remembering why she was running like crazy around the hospital. It didn't take her long to see the room 108, and without hesitation she opened the door and saw a tired but seemingly ok Emma staring at the wall.
"Emma?" she asked hesitantly.
The moment Regina saw Emma turn around she noticed how her dark emerald eyes literally lit up and looked at her as if she was the cure to HIV or the last bottle of water at a desert. She saw relief, surprise, hesitation and love staring right back at her. She smiled and entered the room while not taking her eyes away from Emma's.
"You came." she heard the blonde intern whisper in awe. "You truly came."
"Why are you reacting so calmly?" Emma asked surprised.
"Why shouldn't I?" Regina woke up from her flashback and asked intrigued.
"Because I don't know, you just found out I'm the daughter of the doctor who taught you what you know?"
"I guess it now makes sense." Regina smiled warmly. "You know, your intelligence and brightness certainly comes from her."
"I wouldn't know." Emma said sadly. "And I was scared of asking you about her."
"Why would you be?" Regina asked surprised.
"Because she never told me she taught you." Emma whispered.
"She didn't?" Regina asked sadly. "Well, it actually doesn't surprise me."
"Can you explain that to me?" Emma said sadly, grabbing Regina's hands and kissing it softly.
Regina smiled lovingly and nodded. "In order to do that you will have to know more about me and my past."
"I would love to know more about you Gina." Emma said and smiled softly. "Of course, if you want to tell me."
"For some strange reason I do. Not even Katherine, whom I consider my closest friend, knows about this." she answered honestly. "I'm usually very adamant about sharing my story because it wasn't a happy life."
"And yet?"
"And yet I want you to know about it." Regina said and Emma smiled.
"And I want to hear."
"There was this girl." Regina started to say. "Who was naive and very in love. She had just graduated from high school and was thinking about starting her life with the love of her youth, a young man named Daniel." she looked sadly towards the door and Emma squeezed her hand in encouragement.
"This girl was head over heels in love." Regina smiled. "And wanted to get married and have her own family because the family she had never really cared about her. Her mother was a renowned doctor who only cared about the prestige and recognition that came with being known. It was never about the patients, at least that is what the girl suspected during most of her life, suspicions that got confirmed the moment Daniel fell sick to a weird congenital disease."
"Oh no." Emma whispered and saw how Regina was trying to hold her tears at bay.
"The girl begged her mother for help, promised her anything in exchange for an opportunity to save Daniel. She had been so used to her mother not caring about her happiness that deep in her heart she almost expected her to do this one thing for her. Turns out the girl was hoping for too much and her mother refused to move a single hand for her. Said the boy wasn't really worth the effort and that there was nothing she could do anyway."
"And was there?" Emma asked softly. "Was there something she could do?"
"Not really." Regina whispered. "But the girl saw how her mother refused to help her and the disappointment followed her since the moment Daniel died. She couldn't see her mother without feeling hate towards her. Couldn't understand how her mother could claim to love her and still make her suffer so much. She realized that her happiness had died with Daniel, and the rest of the time at college she just focused on studying and nothing else."
Emma nodded in comprehension and kissed Regina's cheeks softly, words not enough to make her understand how much she got Regina's sorrow and loneliness. That lack of empathy from others and that desperation of realizing she had to one to help her, to guide her and aid her.
Regina allowed herself to be kissed by Emma, allowed all those good emotions to pour into her and try to enlighten her dark past. Turns out it did just that, and what had seen before impossible to share was now a burden that she didn't have to take alone. Emma understood, Emma knew and Emma was still standing there, kissing her and showing her support.
"Finished college really fast and then got into medical school. Half-way through it there was this rumor going around campus about a doctor from the faculty that won the Snow White award. The girl's mother had never won it, and to be able to learn from someone like that was what the girl thought her life was missing. "
"Missing?" Emma asked.
"Yes, missing." Regina repeated. "Because the girl had been looking for significance, for a meaning to her suffering and lack of empathy from her mother, who demanded her to follow her steps and also become a doctor. It's not easy to guess that medicine until then hadn't bring it. So she boldly went to meet the woman and asked for her help."
"My mother." Emma said and Regina smiled softly.
"The woman only asked her one question, which was: 'Do you have hope?' And the girl answered: 'I hope this gives me hope.'"
"And she agreed to teach you."
"She offered the little girl a new start." Regina said softly, carefully. "The doctor was leaving the city and heading to a small town in Maine called Storybrooke. She never told the girl why she wanted to leave, only that she needed a new start. And since the girl was also looking for one she decided to join the doctor and went to Storybrooke too."
"And that's how you ended here."
Regina smiled softly. "And that's how I ended up here."
"And my mom taught you?"
"Yes, and I am eternally grateful to her for helping me choose to get a new start. You see, I was very afraid of leaving, despite everything my mother did to me. Your mother gave me courage to tell my mother everything I thought about her and be willing enough to live without her interfering." Regina smiled sadly and looked at Emma lovingly. "To be honest with you, at first I thought that she could be what my mother wasn't because she cared about me."
Emma understood immediately. "You thought she would be the mother you never had."
Regina nodded and looked down. "I knew Mary cared about me, but it was never the same way I cared about her. I don't think she ever allowed herself the opportunity to see me as more than a student. Before I didn't understand why and felt that it was because of me." Regina admitted shyly. " Now I can assume that her guilt had something to do with it."
"I'm sorry you weren't able to get her love." Emma said sadly.
"I'm not." Regina answered back. "Because the moment I realized that I would be nothing more than a pupil the two of us became good friends. It was sad to see her leave the hospital."
"Did she tell you why she left?" Emma asked cautiously.
"She said she was sick and needed to take care of herself before coming back to work." Regina answered confused. "Isn't it?"
Emma gulped softly. Regina had just told her the story of her life and here she was doubting about revealing Mary's secret. She trusted Regina too much and cared too deeply about her feelings. Hell, this woman had been her guidance since she got here and felt more connected to her than to her own mother, who had only kept secrets from her since the moment she decided to stay in Storybrooke.
"Not exactly." Emma said softly. "She is sick but it's not something that can be cured. She has Alzheimer."
"Oh no." Regina said softly and tears started to fall. "Poor Mary. And poor you, my sweet Emma." she choked while immediately grabbing Emma and hugging her tightly. "How you must be feeling."
"I feel guilty." Emma confessed. "Because most of the time I feel nothing. Hell, I felt sadder about that little girl not waking up than my own mother being on the risk of forgetting who she is at any moment."
"Just because she gave birth to you that doesn't make her your mother." Regina explained softly. "Trust me, I know what I mean."
Emma chuckled softly and hugged Regina back. "We are such a pair. I mean, here I am feeling all insecure and jealous about you working with Belle..."
"Wait, you asked me to come because you were jealous?" Regina asked surprised.
"Yes?" Emma said shyly.
"You are such a fool!" Regina said while laughing non-stop.
"It's not that funny." Emma said embarrassed. "I mean, if you compare Belle to me she wins in every way."
"Wins?" Regina asked shocked. "Seriously Emma, have you seen yourself? You are absolutely breathtaking, smart, funny, charming and loving." Regina rambled. "It is I the one that wonders what You see in Me."
"You are quite wonderful too Regina." Emma gushed while blushing.
"You don't even know me." Regina said while smiling softly.
"And yet it seems that I do." Emma smiled warmly.
Regina laughed softly. "And yet it seems you do."
"I'm sorry for reacting like this. It's just that I have never been chosen before others." Emma admitted softly. "Before I decided to leave my foster home I always had hope of a family coming to adopt me, you know. It happened when I was three and I thought that I finally found a place, but then they had their own kid and decided to give me back." she looked down in shame. "After that no one was interested in me because they saw me as a nuisance."
"Again, it was their loss." Regina repeated strongly. "Because you became a beautiful and wonderful person who deserves everything she is getting."
Emma smiled warmly and kissed Regina deeply, sweetly. "Right now I find myself lucky of being able to kiss you."
"I am the lucky one." Regina nudged Emma's neck. "And the one without a job if I don't go back to Cardio."
Emma nodded in understanding and grabbed Regina's hand. "We are still on for tonight, right?" she asked unsure.
"Wouldn't miss it for the world dear." Regina smiled brightly and pecked her one more time before opening the door. "Besides, you have a lesson at 9." she winked and left a smitten Emma chuckling softly.
Emma was running like a madwoman. She was running late to her lesson/date with Regina and the last thing she wanted to do was make such a bad impression. It was truly not her fault, but Gold hadn't taken so nicely to her simply leaving the Neuro ward and as punishment he made her read and review all his cases from the last year. Still, he was right at being upset and Emma diligently skipped an open craniotomy so she could be able to finish Gold's little homework. That didn't work so well, and remembering that she was the one responsible for bringing the food, she called the local diner (which was the only place that did take-out in this small town) and ordered a variety of dishes that they could share romantically. Emma smiled at the prospect of feeding Regina and of actually being with her uninterrupted. It certainly made her get goosebumps in all the right places to think about the brunette woman and her deep brown eyes. It was so strange and yet wonderful to feel so connected and close to someone. She knew that trusting people was a hard thing for her to do, and that most of the time she usually didn't even try because people ended up disappointing her. With Regina it was the complete opposite, and instead of trying to find the woman doing something to upset her she was just waiting for her to actually do something wrong. Everything Regina did was great, every single idea a good one and every moment the two of them shared was special. What she was now a little scared off was of not being enough for her because Emma knew that perfect and her name did not go along well. That was the main reason that motivated her to put Regina through one of her silly tests, a test which the older doctor passed with flying colors. Now that she was calm she realized how silly it was of her to be so insecure because they were not official and hence Emma had no right to be so possessive of Regina and then the fact that she must have been seen as desperately clingy and dependent. She groaned to herself and continued to run towards the diner. She had officially made a fool of herself earlier and still Regina had kissed and looked at her as if she were the sun in the sky. It was nice to feel so wanted and cared about, feelings that Emma was not used to be invested on her. After being abandoned by most people during her childhood and then spending most of her adult life alone, to be wanted and desired by such a wonderful person was strange and wonderful. It made her want to be better for Regina and to help her face her own demons, which was truly unlike her. Well, that's what happens when you fall in... Emma stopped herself before finishing that line of thought. It was too early in the relationship, if what they had was even that yet, to say such big words. Nevertheless, that is what Emma felt and she knew it. One thing Emma never did was avoid confrontations, even with her own self. This conversation was one of those moments where she would ask herself if what she was experimenting was real or not, too soon or too late or just too inconvenient. Most of the time things never made it past the first parameter, but just like the late owner and main focus of her thoughts, Regina seemed to be the exception to the rule. Yes, she screamed mentally when she made it to the diner and quickly got the food. She still had ten minutes before 9pm, which gave her enough time to walk towards the hospital. Her mind was solely thinking about Regina, about her soft lips and sweet smiles being focused on her and only her. She could notice in the brunette's eyes her natural curiosity, her concern when it came to her well-being and her desire to do right. It was very endearing and maybe that's what captured her the moment they met. Going through the reception and nodding hello to the floor nurses Emma took her cellphone out and looked at Regina's last text.
"Meet me in room 459." it simply said and Emma groaned in anticipation. Why was Regina so vague about the room and what they were going to, it's not like it was a national secr... Emma stopped the moment she saw Regina leaning over a body completely nude.
"And who invited him?" Emma joked while pointing at the male cadaver that was on the operation table.
Regina turned around and smiled brightly at her. "I'm sure no one will miss his absence. And besides, he gave us permission to use his body for scientific research."
"So then teaching me is defined under scientific research?" Emma asked while smirking.
"Always so cocky Dr. Swan." Regina joked back and went to stand in front of the woman. "Dan's Diner?" she asked when she saw the containers.
Emma nodded. "Small town stereotype: only one diner."
"Makes you miss big cities." Regina added and Emma nodded in agreement.
"Totally. But then again, in big towns it wouldn't be so easy to have an OR and dear John laying here with us."
Regina laughed. "I cannot argue that."
"And what can you argue Dr. Mills?" Emma flirted and Regina blushed.
"There are many things I can argue Dr. Swan." Regina said while grabbing Emma's hips and pushing them close to hers. "Like the fact that you texted me all those candid messages and left me hanging."
Emma gulped. "Well, you started it." she argued weakly.
Regina cackled. "I continued dear. And if there is one thing you must know about me." she continued saying while approaching Emma and biting her ear softly. "Is that I never back down from a challenge." she purred.
"Regina." Emma whispered and tried to get her body closer to the brunette's. She groaned when the only thing she could feel was air. "You are not being fair."
"I am not doing anything." Regina said innocently.
"You are tempting me." Emma accused her.
"I am not." she answered and moved closer to the blonde. "I am merely talking with you."
"I don't like to be toyed with." Emma joked but still tried to sound serious. "And once I start something I finish it." she continued while running towards Regina and melting their bodies together.
"I thought you were here to learn." Regina whispered, her arousal rising uncontrollably.
"And I thought you were here to teach." Emma purred and kissed Regina's neck, sucking and leaving a bruise on it.
"I don't think dear John would approve of this." Regina choked out before moaning at the feeling of Emma's lips on her collarbone. "Emma..." she whispered reverently.
"I guess you are right." Emma said and bit one more time Regina's neck before separating fully and going to stand behind the corpse. "And we can't let John get uncomfortable.
Regina groaned but still made her way to stand in front of Emma. "I suppose we can do what we came to do." she continued while standing behind Emma and grabbing her hands. "Today you won't use a scalpel Emma."
Emma was intrigued. "Then what am I going to do?"
"You will feel." Regina said. "You will close your eyes, and with your eyes closed you fill find the left atrium."
"Without seeing?" Emma asked surprised. "That's impossible."
"You won't know unless you try it." Regina encouraged her by pulling her hand inside the man's chest. "Now close your eyes Emma and focus on my voice."
Emma complied and saw complete darkness, her other senses heightened.
"Now picture in your mind what a heart looks like." Regina commanded her. "Nod when you see it."
Emma nodded immediately.
"Ok, now I want you to lower your hand and try to grab the man's heart."
Emma did as asked, and in a couple of minutes she found the organ. She felt Regina smiling behind her.
"Good job Emma." Regina complimented her. "Now remind me how many parts you need to pass until you reach the left atrium."
"Six." Emma answered.
"Then I suggest you start your path downwards. And when doing so name the part of the organ out-loud."
Emma nodded again and passed her hand through what she suspected was the left common carotid artery. She continued her path, her hand feeling the differences between the different parts and her memory making mental annotations so she could remember. Regina was right, it was possible to find a specific part with only your hand. And it was possible if you already knew what you were looking for. Emma smiled warmly.
"Something amusing Dr. Swan?" Regina teased lightly.
"No." Emma said while stopping her hand at the left atrium.
"Then why were you smiling?" Regina asked intrigued.
"Maybe because I found it?" Emma said and let Regina take a look.
"You did." she said and smiled brightly. "See, I told you it was possible."
Emma nodded and took her hand out, immediately throwing the glove at the garbage and covering the body with a blanket.
"But we were not done." Regina started to argue but Emma quickly ran and kissed the woman soundly on the lips.
"We are so done." Emma whimpered and passed her tongue through the woman's lips, earning a whimper and quick response from the older woman. "God, I want you Regina."
Regina moaned and continued to kiss Emma deeply. "I do too Emma, so much." she said but still tried to create some space between the two of them. "But not here."
Emma took some breaths, trying to control her arousal. "I know." Emma groaned. "But I can't help myself."
Regina laughed loudly. "Trust me, it is taking all my self control to have you pinned against the door screaming my name."
"Reginaaa." Emma whispered and dark eyes met her own dilated emerald ones.
"Fuck it." Regina said and grabbed Emma's hand, quickly making their way out of room 459 and running towards the doctor's aisle. It took them a couple of minutes, but the moment Regina opened the door to the lounge, and closed and locked it after they were in, she darted towards Emma and kissed her fiercely.
Emma groaned in agreement and brought their hips together by brushing them against each other. The contact made the two women moan loudly, and the wetness between their legs grow even more than before.
"You cursing is absolutely hot." Emma said while lowering her mouth to Regina's breast and lifting her shirt in the process. "Totally hot." she said and took one of them on her mouth, earning a whimper from the brunette.
"If that is what it takes for you to react like this..." Regina moaned again when she felt Emma switch sides. "Then remind me to do it more often."
"I won't remind you." Emma said while peppering Regina's stomach and pushing her to one of the couches. "I will make you scream it right now." she promise while taking Regina's pants off and leaving her with only her panties.
"Emmaaa!" Regina screamed when she felt fingers trailing her lips in circular patterns. "Take this off." she said while pulling the blonde's shirt and bra away from her.
Once Emma was bare Regina opened her eyes and through her lust-filled gaze managed to see how beautiful the blonde woman was. Instead of voicing this she decided to show the blonde by using her hands to grab her breast while her lips went to search for the blonde's. The kiss was just as powerful and electric as all the other ones they had shared.
"Take the rest off." Emma whimpered and Regina stopped her ministrations to switch and take Emma's pants and panties down.
When the two of them were completely bare they stopped to look at each other, their eyes hungrily roaming every curve and feature of the other woman. While Emma's body was more athletic than Regina's, the brunette's was curvilineous and a little more feminine than the blonde's.
"Together." Regina said and lowered her hand to Emma's clit and started to rub it strongly.
Emma nodded and continued to move her fingers, feeling how close Regina was getting towards release. The two of them moaned at the contact of each other, and with a light twitch and bite to Emma's breasts, Regina felt Emma's walls contracting and rising in an earth shattering orgasm that led to her own wonderful release.
Regina smiled brightly. She had never felt such a release, never felt so secure and happy at sharing such an intimate moment with another person. She got up and lowered her body on top of Emma's, who was smiling so much that Regina was wondering if her jaw was hurting. Still, she chuckled and kissed the blonde softly on the lips.
"That was wonderful." she told Emma who nodded happily.
"It was more than that." Emma added.
Regina nodded. Yes it was and it seemed that the two of them realized it. But wasn't it too soon to be experiencing feelings so deep? I mean, they only met 5 days ago! Still, to Regina it felt like Emma was that other part of herself that was missing, the part that complimented and made her a better version of herself.
"I feel that too." she heard the blonde say softly. "I know that face." she pointed at Regina. "I had that face too, last night."
"It's just that it's so strange to feel so much so soon."
"But is it bad?"
"I don't know." Regina answered honestly.
"Do you care?" Emma asked while holding her breath. She knew that her addiction to Regina only became worse after this.
"The only thing I seem to be caring about is spending time with you and your happiness." Regina smiled happily and nuzzled herself to Emma's neck. "And I have put others before myself for quite some time. It's my turn to be happy."
"And I make you happy?" Emma asked surprised.
"Incredibly happy." Regina smiled and cupped her cheek. "You are making me be a better, kinder and warmer me."
"And you are making me a safer, more sure of herself me." Emma blushed and smiled. "I don't want this to end. I'm too selfish."
Regina laughed and hugged Emma tight to her. "Good, because I am also selfish."
"Not complaining." Emma laughed and looked around the room. "Cool place you doctors have."
Regina hummed her agreement. "Never thought I would use it for this sort of activities."
"And boy am I glad you did."
"You make me lose control Emma." Regina said seriously. "It's like you are a drug to me."
"And you are not used to losing control."
"No." Regina agreed. "But I'm liking the freedom that comes from not being in control of every single aspect of things."
"Then I will continue to challenge you Dr. Mills." Emma smirked.
"You can now do other things that will make me happier." Regina said and lowered herself.
Emma opened her eyes and moaned when she felt the brunette's breath over her mound. This was going to be a wonderful night, was the last thing Emma thought before losing herself under Regina's tongue.
PD: Don't worry, Robin, Mary Margaret not telling Emma about Regina's part in her life and all the other things that were discussed in this chapter will be addressed in the next one. And to some you may be surprised about Regina's reaction when Emma tells her about Mary hiding the truth from her. You see, she did it because she felt guilty of having taught Regina (who reminded her of her own daughter) and how incapable she was of forgiving herself for abandoning Emma when she was a baby.
