Once Emma and Regina got to the movies theater, Emma became a huge ball of excitement. "I love the movies! When I was a kid, I remember sneaking into movies and just being in awe of the huge screen. Man I could watch movies all day!" Emma smiled as she looked at the building.

Regina smiled at Emma childlike behavior. "Well do you want to go in or stand out here all night and freeze to death?"

"Oh! Sorry. Yeah." Emma smiled bashfully at Regina and then pulled her up to the ticket booth. "So what do you want to watch?'/p

"I really don't care. You choose dear."

"It's supposed to be your pick!"

"Regina rolled her eyes, "I honestly don't care."

"Emma sighed, "Fine, I'll pick." She looked up at all the movies advertisements, as her eyes landed in a movie a smirk slowly appeared on her face. "This is the perfect movie. Regina is going to love it! At least I hope she is..." Emma turned to Regina and said "Alright you go get the popcorn and the Swedish Fish and I'll get the movie tickets."

"So you've finally decided, huh?"

"Yep, and you're gonna love it!" Emma smiled.

"Regina chuckled at her enthusiasm, " alright Dear, I'll go get the popcorn."

"And Swedish Fish!"

"Do you really need both?"

"Yes! They are both part of the movie experience! You have to get both!:

"Fine, I'll get both. But only because you're cute." Regina winked and walked inside to buy the snacks.

Emma stood there watching Regina walk inside. She couldn't take her eyes off Regina's backside. It was just perfect. Once Regina was out of sight, Emma moved to get the tickets.

Once both the women were settled in the movies, Emma opened her Swedish Fish and began popping them in her mouth by the handful.

"If you keep eating them like that, there won't be any left for the movie." Said Regina.

"But they are so good!" Wined Emma.

Regina laughed. "You are most definitely adorable."

Emma blushed and mumbled, "am not."

The lights were dimmed and the opening began to play. "So what movie are we going to watch?"

"Well, it is a special showing of one of my favorite movies..."

"Which is...?"

"Phantom of The Opera."

"Isn't that a Broadway musical?"

"It is, but they made a movie out of it, and I'm such a geek for musicals. I'm sorry if you don't like it, we could always leave. Maybe go somewhere else, like I don't know a walk or"

"Emma!"

"What?"

"Calm down. I love musicals too. But my favorite is Wicked." Regina smiled. "But Phantom does come in a close second."

Emma sighed, "Man that's a relief. I like Wicked too, but there is no way it beats Phantom!"

At Emma's, rather loud comment, a rude "shhh!" came from behind the two ladies. Emma turned around and glared at the man and was about to say something, "Just leave it Darling, we were being a little loud. Let's just enjoy the movie ok?"

Emma huffed, "fine. But if that rude jerk does anything else, I'll take him outside and teach him a lesson."

Regina chuckled a little bit, "of course you will Dear."

Once the movie was over, Emma and Regina walked out of the movie theater hand in hand. Emma was quietly humming emMusic of The Night/em and Regina was basking in the peaceful bubble they had found themselves in. Emma turned to Regina and smiled.

Regina smiled back, "yes?"

"I was just thinking.."

"About?"

"How I don't want this to be over." Emma blushed and looked down.

Regina bit her lip and blushed along with her. "I was thinking the same thing."

Emma looked up at Regina through her eyelashes, "Well, uh we could go back to my place and watch another movie? I could whip us up a few cookies and we could just hang out."

Regina smiled softly, "that sounds wonderful."

They got back to the bakery, and Emma parked Artemis in the alley and took Regina's hand and walked around front to the door. Emma fished her keys out of her pocket and unlocked the door. She lead Regina up the stairs to her apartment.

"Uh do you want something to drink? I've got water, juice, milk, beer, oh and a bottle of wine."

"I think water will be alright for now."

"Mkay, just uh make yourself at home or something." Emma turned and walked into the kitchen and fixed Regina's water and some apple juice for herself. As she walked back into the living room where she left Regina, she tried to calm her nerves, but as soon as she saw Regina sitting on her couch with her head back and eyes closed, her heart took off a million miles per minute. "gods she is beautiful."

"Well thank you Dear."

"Oh crap did I say that out loud?"

Regina laughed, "yes you did."

"Well the most beautiful woman in the world is sitting in my living room, my brain isn't function quite right at the moment." Emma said with a shrug.

Regina gasped, "you think I'm the most beautiful woman in the world?"

Emma smiled, "Well yeah. I mean have you seen yourself? You are amazing Regina! And not just physically, you are smart and funny and uh yeah, I'll just stop rambling now. I do that when I'm nervous you know? I never seem to be able to stop..."

"Emma." Regina whispered.

"Uh yes?"

"Thank you."

"Anytime." Emma smiled. "So movie! I have a lot of movies, I'm kinda a movie geek too."

"I think I will trust your judgment on which one to watch."

"Ummm, how about we go classic but stick with musicals, and watch Grease?"

"Grease? I don't think I've seen that one."

"Well Miss Mills, you are in for a treat. You can start it while I whip up those cookies I promised, it will take me twenty minutes." Emma smiled at Regina and moved to put the DVD in the player.

"Well alright, just hurry. I don't want to be by myself on this date. I was just starting to enjoy the company."

"Twenty minutes! You won't regret it. I'm the best at making cookies. Oh! You aren't allergic to anything are you? I don't want to kill you when I'm having such a good time."

Regina laughed, " no Dear, I'm not allergic to anything. Now hurry up!"

"Alright alright! I'm going! Bossy!" Emma stuck her tongue out at Regina then walked back into the kitchen with a smile on her face.

Regina sat on Emma's couch watching the opening to Grease but really she was far away. "How can things be this easy with Emma? Everything just goes so easily! I mean I would never go to someone's house on the... Second date? Wow this is just the second date! It seems like forever, but the good kind of forever. Mmm forever with Emma..." Regina sighed.

When Emma came back into the living room with her world famous no-bake cookies, she noticed that Regina had a far away look in her eye. She cleared her throat to get her attention.

Regina shook herself out of her daydream, and saw Emma standing next to her with a huge grin and a plate of something. Regina cleared her throat, "So uh, what did you make me?"

"Well, I made my world famous no-bake cookies!"

"No-bake cookies? Isn't the whole point of cookies is to bake them?"

"You've never had no-bake cookies!" Emma gasp in horror.

"Uh no?"

"Eat this right now! Your life will be forever changed!" Emma shoved the plate of cookies into Regina's face.

Regina took a cookie off the plate and took a small bite, and moan. "Oh my god! Emma! What is this piece of heaven!?"

"That, is a no-bake cookie." Emma said with a satisfied smirk. "Your knowledge of the baking world is very lacking, good thing you know an amazing baker."

Regina just nodded as she reached for another cookie. "Emma I am so lucky to have you and your baking skills!"

Emma just laughed, "alright, come on movie time!" Emma plopped down on the couch next to Regina and through her arm over the back, basically pulling Regina into a cuddle. Regina didn't care or just didn't noticed because she reached for another cookie.

"Don't eat too many of those, they are really rich and you will have the worst stomach ache tomorrow."

"Are you cutting me off?" Regina pouted.

"Oh gods! Regina is sooo adorable when she is pouting! How am I supposed to say no to that face! Gah I'm so weak!" Emma sighed. "I'm not cutting you off, I'm just telling you to slow down."

"Fine. I'll just have one more."

An hour and five cookies later Regina was asleep against Emma. Emma was running her fingers through Regina's hair and smiling softly. "I could do this forever. She is so perfect. I can't believe we have only been on two dates! Its just so crazy how well we work... I love it though, this easiness we have. Mmm I should probably wake her up, but she looks so peaceful." Emma looked at the clock and sighed, it was past midnight.

Emma gently shook Regina, "hey beautiful, I need you to wake up."

Regina groaned and snuggled deeper into Emma. Emma chuckled, "you are so adorable! And I need you to wake up. Unless you want to sleep here..?"

"I don't wanna get up." Replied Regina sleepy.

"Hmm alright, go back to sleep baby."

"Oka..." The rest of Regina's okay drifted away, just like her. She was back asleep and softly snoring.

Emma smiled, she carefully slipped out from Regina's arms and stood up. She stretched and almost everything popped from sitting so long. Emma sighed and then looked back at Regina. "What am I going to do with you hmm?" Emma leaned over and picked Regina up bridal style and carried her up to her room. She carefully laid her out on the bed and tucked her in. "Good night Regina, sweet dreams." Emma said softly and kissed Regina's forehead.

Emma grabbed a few extra pillows and a blanket from the closet and went to the couch. "I hope Regina doesn't freak out when she wakes up." Emma's last conscious thought was to set an alarm so she would be up before Regina, and she slipped into blissful oblivion after an amazing day.
