Hey guys! I'm back, sorry it's so long since my last update! I've been suffering from writers block, but now I'm back for a while at least. Like always feel free to leave me a review and let me know what you guys think and enjoy!


Emma was slightly taken aback from how Regina was acting, but she decided to brush it off and enjoy their date…LUNCH. Emma has to keep reminding herself that this is not a date! That terrible evening she spent with Hook was a date, this is no more than a nice lunch between two women that share a child together and just so happen to kinda be related…well not by blood, but still Emma can't just forget that Regina is basically her grandmother…her really beautiful grandmother, okay that is just wrong on so many levels!

"Are you just going to stand there Miss Swan, or are you actually going to join me?" Regain questioned, breaking the blonde sheriff from her really disturbing daydream.

"I'm definitely going to join you, I'm starving!" The blonde said excitedly while taking a seat beside the former Evil Queen herself.

"I assume you'll be having something that is dripping in grease per usual?" The Mayor asked rhetorically, all the Savior could do was smirk in reply.

"You are incorrect Madam Mayor, I was actually considering having a salad today. Have to keep this body looking good, a burger and fries won't help with that." Emma said, lying to the older woman. She actually had no intention of ordering either of those things, in fact, she was really craving a grilled cheese sandwich.

"I'm in shock Miss Swan, however, I do know that…oh, how does Henry say it…oh yes, I do know that you are trying to pull a fast one on me…and since we are on the topic of your body, can I just say that yo…"

"You guys ready to order?" Ruby said interrupting Regina just before she got to the point of her statement.

"Yeah, I'll have the grilled cheese and I'll bet that Madam Mayor will have a kale salad, but you'll have to ask her." Emma teased Regina while Ruby looked to Regina for confirmation.

"I'll have the grilled cheese sandwich as well please Miss Lucas, oh and a tea and hot chocolate for the sheriff, please," Regina said while starring at Emma the whole time.

"Okay, I'll be back soon with your drinks…that is so a date!" Ruby giggled to herself once she knew she was out of earshot.

"I'm not as predictable as you think Miss Swan," Regina said sternly, while Emma smiled shyly at her.

"I don't think that you are predictable Regina, in fact, you surprise me every day. I know you don't hear this often, but you are truly amazing Regina Mills." Emma said, with a faint blush now appearing on her cheeks.

"Feel free to continue Miss Swan, I'm intrigued now." Regina smiled shyly at the goofy blonde.

"Where do I start, you were able to enact an extremely powerful curse, I mean yeah it was in spite of my mother, but it was still pretty epic, oh and you raised our son on your own! You single handily run this town, do I need to go on?" Emma asked making the Mayor look down at the table.

"No, I think you have proven your point, Miss Swan…" Regina smiled brightly at the younger woman, before yet again their lunch was interrupted by Ruby who came over to place their drinks down in front of them.

"Thanks, Rubs…" Emma said while still smiling at the Mayor.

"I think that we should get back to why we agreed to meet for lunch today in the first place, don't you?" Regina suggested, before taking a sip of her tea.

"And what was that Madam Mayor?" Emma asked while blowing on her hot chocolate.

"I'm not too sure, as I recall you just suggested we have lunch together and me being the fool I am agreed," Regina said while laughing slightly along with the sheriff.

"You know; we shouldn't need a reason! From now on, we should get lunch together whenever we want. It's better than waiting for a stupid pirate that doesn't show up, right?" Emma suggested to Regina, who at this moment in time was extremely happy.

"I agree Miss Swan, but now that I think about it there is actually a reason I agreed to this lunch…" Regina said, thinking back to her conversation she had with their son a few hours ago.

"I'm all ears Madam Mayor." The Savior smiled sweetly at the older woman.

"Well you see, umm I've never actually done this before. Okay, Emma…Miss Swan, what I'm trying to say is that you, me and Henry are kind of like a little family now and I guess I just wanted to ask you if you wanted to…."

"Hold that thought…Sheriff Swan?"

"Seriously!" Regina said mostly to herself while drinking her tea to calm herself down.

"Sorry Regina, there's a dog emergency and Pongo hates my dad…"

"It's quite okay Miss Swan, we can finish this another time, why don't you and Henry come over for dinner tonight and we can finish this little conversation," Regina suggested while Emma tried her best to down her hot chocolate.

"Henry has a sleepover tonight…would it be okay if it was just me? My parents are having a date night and I was just going to come here after work." Emma asked, making Regina's heart flutter slightly at the thoughts of being alone with Emma.

"That's fine…seven-ish?"

"Yeah, sounds good to me!" Emma smiled as Ruby appeared with their lunch. "Lunch is on me! Bye Rubs! See ya tonight Regina!" Emma shouted while throwing twenty bucks on the table and grabbing her grilled cheese sandwich right off the plate before running out the door.

"Well, this date was an improvement from her last one," Ruby said while setting Regina's plate down in front of her.

"Not a date…" Regina said while still looking at the spot Emma was in a few seconds ago.

"Keep telling yourself that Madam Mayor!" Ruby commented before walking away to tend to other costumers.
