"O my god, what did you say?" Ruby hisses

"Nothing, what could I say?" she says deflated.

"Wow. Just wow. out of everything she could of said... that really?"

"I know... I bloody know."

"You know what you have to do right?" After being met with complete silence she continues "She loves you Em, we all know it. But it IS Regina she is stubborn to say the least... you've just got to get her to admit it. She's gone casual just to protect herself... Think about it. Every time she lets someone in they either hurt her or get taken away from her."

"I've got to get her to trust me...well trust in love..."

"Exactly." Ruby winks.


She's been building up to this all week, taking a deep breath she opens the door.

"Sheriff Swan, please come in." stacking her paperwork in a neat pile and placing to one side.

"Thanks. So I've been thinking about... you know."

"My offer?"

"Ermm yes. I don't want that with you, well I do but not in that way. If i can't have you in every way, I don't want you in that way."

Regina smiles standing up from her chair "Oh but Emma." She makes her way around her desk to the blonde who suddenly looks nervous. She glides her finger down Emma's clenching jaw line. "You can have me in anyway you want..." Her voice is dripping with seduction.

"Mmph. Wow. Fuck." she shakes her head and takes a step back. "No, I didn't mean it like that."

Squinting her eyes and raising an eyebrow. "Ok. I'll respect your decision."

It was a hard decision but she knew it had to be done if her plan was to work.


"Hey, Kid." sliding into the booth at Grannies

"Hey, Ma. You wanna do something today?" he beams

"Hmm, like what?" as she looks at his plate and steals a fry.

"We could go to the Park? Oooo or the beach!" His little eyes lit up.

Emma thinks to her self for a moment this could help with the plan she hasn't quite made yet. "That sounds great, Hen. Why don't we seen if we can get your mum to come too? She could do with a good break."


After about half an hour of pleading and Henry having to pull out the puppy dog eyes they convinced the 'I've got a town to run, I can't just take a day off for the beach' Mayor to go.

They arrive in Reginas Mercedes Benz because they were not driving in Emmas 'Death trap', bit rude if you ask Emma as she wasn't even allowed to drive the Mercedes...It came with rules.

Reginas rules for her baby Mercedes:

1) Don't touch anything you don't have to

2) Only I drive my Mercedes.

3) No drinks or greasy food.

4) No dirty clothes or shoes.

5) No finger prints on the windows.

6) No playing with the radio or the heat.

All of which were pointed at Emma, Henry on the other hand could do anything because he gets away with everything. The blonde was totally not jealous in anyway as Henry munched down his remains of a Greasy cheese burger. Emma wasn't allowed in the car until she had finished hers and washed her hands... Not. Jealous. At. All.

"Come on Moms! Get the ball out of the boot, I'll go make up a goal!" Henry slams the door as he shoots off to the beach.

"You prepared to get your ass kicked?" Emma said smugly.

"HA. Bring it Blondie..." She says over her shoulder as shes stepping out the car.

Ok.. She may admit doubting the Mayors football ability was a huge mistake. She was already 3 up. Who knew the very put together women could whip their ass's at football.

"Oh come on this totally isn't fair..."

"It's only not fair cause your loosing, Ma." Henry laughs.

"What scared of a little competition Em?" Regina brags as she puffs her chest out.

Henry gets in goal.

Emma shakes her head and kicks out the fatigue from her legs. She starts with the ball moving it between her feet as Regina tried to block her from getting closer to the goal. Getting a little over confident she tries to flip the ball through her opponents legs of which was stopped and turned as she prepares to do her famous bend it like Beckham kick.

Just before she could she felt arms around her waist lifting her up away from the ball she squeals and has a moment of confusion as shes facing the other way just turning in time to see Emma kicking the ball into the goal past a laughing Henry.

"Oh that so does not count! You cheated!" She shouts to Emma who is waving her hands in the air and mimicking the sound of a crowd going wild.

Giggling " What scared of a little competition, Gina?"

Her mouth a gap she smiles. "You want to play like that fine..." she interlocks her finger and clicks them, full gamer mode activated.

Emma gulps. "Well this should be interesting..."

The ball is back in the middle, Regina starts this time. She tactically makes her way to the goal, goes to shoot and once again Emma grabs her and pushes her out the way.

Emma goes to take the goal that was so beautifully set up for her and suddenly face plants the floor. Regina had grabbed her ankles and pulled making her loose balance at just the right time to kiss the golden sand beneath them.

"Ha! no way!" she bear hugs Regina's leg making her also fall.

Henry was in the goal laughing to hard to stop any ball that may or may not ever get there as both his parents fight over each other trying to crawl to the ball.

After about 5 minuets of play fighting and Emma winning due to unfair tickling, they decided to stop playing before it got out of hand and someone ended up peeing there self from either laughing or tickling to much.

Henry decides to play next to the ocean as they walk along the beach together.

"Even though you are a terrible looser and a even being cheat, it was really nice for you to invite me today, I've really enjoyed it. Thank you." Regina says while watching Henry in the distance. "I thought it may of been awkward."

"Well thanks for coming even if I'm not going allowed to breath near your car and you cheated just as much as I did in that game I'm sure of it." She laughs " Well I'm glad it wasn't... Awkward that is. "

They walk until they start to get a little too cold, after a group discussion they decided to head home.

Pulling up outside the mansion Henry runs in to get changed. Regina and Emma not far behind.

"Drink?" Regina questions

"Nah I best not...work tomorrow, I am the sheriff you know." She winks making Regina snort.

"Oh I'm fully aware of that" She says leaning against the door frame.

"Thanks for coming today, I don't think it would of been the same without you."

"Of course not, who would of beat you?" she says followed by her 'well duh' face.

Emma laughs quietly looking down shaking her head. "I best be off."

"Yeh..."

There was an awkward silence... Emma turns to go.

"Hey, em?"

Rotating back so shes facing Regina just as she embraces her in a hug. "Seriously, thank you for today. We will have to do it again sometime" she leans back and places a chaste kiss on the blondes cheek. Who instantly blushes and nods...


"So how was your day at the beach?" David asks putting the kettle on.

Sporting a massive grin Emma she replies "Amazing..."
