A/N: As some of you have asked or already figured out: the dreams/flashbacks are indeed memories. It will take them a while to find out... Anyway, their interaction, their attraction and their love to one another is the main focus in the moment. ;)
I will keep on switching between narrators and points of view if you don't mind?
Mistakes are all mine.
Enjoy! :)
Chapter 10
Regina's POV
The brunette woke up with butterflies in her stomach, caused by yet another wonderful dream that she had shared with Emma. Regina didn't know why this woman seemed to conquer every second of her life but it felt strangely amazing. Matter-of-factly she just wanted to dwell in those feelings for as long as she could.
Once Regina stood up, only dressed in a silky nightgown, there was a knock at the door. She crinkled her forehead for a second. However, she instantly knew that the Savior had to be the one standing on the other side. Her heart jumped a little at the realization as she made her way to the entrance. Regina took a deep breath before she opened the door, grinning like a love-struck fool.
Emma's POV
The blonde's words were stuck in her throat once she took in the attire of the stunning dark-haired woman in front of her. Her eyes flickered over Regina's body, taking in its perfection and entirety but especially the hard nipples under the gown that were slightly visible. Emma gulped as she felt being watched and quickly looked up again, staring into chocolate-brown orbs that affected her even more.
She noticed a small pink settling down on Regina's face and she also felt like she was warming up inside and out. Emma somehow knew that she blushed like a peony.
After a while of gazing at each other, the brunette spoke up with a husky and seductive voice.
"Hello, Miss Swan. How can I help you?"
Emma contorted her face to regain composure and recollect her thoughts. She quickly reminded herself that she wasn't there to stare at the woman but to bring her the coat. As she raised her hands, she held out Regina's coat, grinning sheepishly. The blonde cleared her throat before she managed to reply.
"I just wanted to return this."
Omniscient narrator
Regina smirked at the blonde, knowing that her plan had worked perfectly and that she could take advantage of this situation. She needed to spend time with the other woman, to get Emma to like her more than just in a friendly way. The former Evil Queen had always been an enticing enchantress, able to bed anyone she had wanted and this time it wouldn't be different. That was the only way to get the Savior to Storybrooke and to get rid of that idiotic man at her side.
"Thank you, dear."
The brunette said as she made a step forward in an attempt to shorten the distance between them. Her hand moved to take the coat but consciously took the other woman's hands in her own. Once they touched, their eyes instantly locked hard, taking in the other's soul. Emma quickly looked away, though.
However, both of them instantly saw something flashing in front of their eyes.
"I do love you, you know." Emma replied, still holding the hands of the dark-haired woman.
"Good." Regina said as tears of joy filled her eyes and she smiled broadly at her lover.
The flash was gone quicker than it had come. Emma and Regina pretended as if it hadn't happened, as if they had not become mental. They assumed that the other hadn't seen the same thing, hadn't had the same memory because they didn't know that what they had seen was indeed a memory.
Emma was unexpectedly the first one to say something, her voice small and almost shy.
"Do you want to go out? I don't mean like a date, um I…"
Before she could finish her sentence, Regina decided to intervene, knowing that the blonde would probably stutter soon or take back the invitation.
"Yes, I would love to."
"Tonight?"
"Someone is eager, I see." The brunette replied teasingly and blinked at Emma.
The blonde inhaled deeply and felt something inside her explode. The effects that woman had on her were inexplicably intense but strange at the same time. Emma coughed a little, blushing all over her face once she tried to give a response.
"Um yeah… so…"
Regina smirked at the struggling blonde and interfered yet again once she noticed that this was going nowhere.
"Pick me up at seven, dear."
Emma was relieved that the brunette apparently always knew when to say something or prevent her from saying something stupid. Anyhow, she grinned at the woman and felt as if a weight fell from her shoulders that she didn't even know had been there.
The blonde spoke up and this time she was sounding determined and smiled happily.
"I'll be there at seven o'clock sharp."
Before Emma could turn around to walk away, she heard Regina's beautiful voice once more.
"What am I supposed to wear for our date?"
The dark-haired woman licked her lips as she stressed the last word, knowing full well what it would do to Emma. The blonde gulped hardly and stared at the other woman's attire again. She couldn't stop thinking "that definitely would do," and immediately blushed at that.
After a while, Emma finally managed to reply and put her indecent thoughts aside.
"Whatever you feel comfortable in."
Regina smiled at the other woman and nodded.
"Well then, I suppose I will see you tonight. Goodbye Emma."
"Goodbye Regina." The blonde said and turned around, her heart already sinking a little but excitement rising within her. She honestly couldn't wait for tonight.
Once Emma arrived home, she quickly ran into the bedroom, which she shared with Neal and searched for something to wear. She didn't quite know what the brunette was into and also didn't know why she cared so much, but thought that her red leather jacket would most definitely please the other woman.
The blonde pulled her tightest jeans out of her closet and her whitest tank top. It was still pretty early in the day and she already knew what she would wear for tonight. Without any other plans for today because her two favorite men weren't home and Emma was still looking for a part-time job, she just lay down on the bed.
Due to a few hours of thinking about Regina and a location for the date, she nearly forgot to pick up Henry from school. Emma instantly snapped out of her dreamlike state and sprinted out of the apartment.
A/N 2.0: I want that 'date' to be awesome but I still don't know where to send them. Any suggestions? :)
