A/N: How are you? You beautiful, lovely, awesome, patient people. I'm so so sorry, guys. I know I haven't updated. Sorry, but here's this. I hope you all like it.

"Shit, Regina. What the hell is wrong with you lately?" Emma spoke softly as she tried to console a frantic Regina.

It had been two weeks since they had sent everyone out. The town was like a ghost town, no one was there except for the small amount of children that populated the city and mothers, or fathers depending on who brought the money in. They had heard from every team sent and they were all progressing nicely in their searches. There had been one fatality but that was only because of the lack of cooperation on an outside family's part. Emma's guy had killed the group of men like he was told and Regina had been furious or petrified, Emma couldn't tell. The woman yelled and screamed about retaliation and to top it all of it had been two days since they had heard from Ruby and August. They had to go silent if they wanted to keep the trail on Robin, but they found out he was still alive which was a shock to them to say the least. Regina had begun pacing and mumble rant to herself about how he has become a pawn and the leader knows what they were up to. Emma's head span with ideas and plots and schemes that ended every time they were almost out of her mouth, she had nothing.

"Nothing is wrong with me, Miss Swan." Regina picked up her glass of half spilled wine and started for the living room before Emma stood up and wrapped her arms around her from the back.

"Talk again but this time try the truth, hmm?" Emma turned her head and inhaled a breath of Regina's spice scented hair before lining small kisses to the straining muscles of her neck.

Regina dipped her neck to the side and hummed low as Emma planted a series of kisses up her neck until she nibbled on an olive toned ear. "Ruby."

Emma sighed and turned the woman around by her shoulders so she could look into he woman's eyes as she spoke. "Ruby is fine. August will not let anything happen to her and if he does you can rip his heart out for all the world to see."

Emma's chuckle ended when she noticed Regina's eyes glaze over and her body tense. "Regina?"

Regina shook her head and her body out of Emma's reach before setting her glass down on the hall table. She strode from the room with Emma hot on her heels, confused as to what Regina was feeling. "I'm fine Emma."

Emma shook her head at the woman and toed the door before it could be shut in her face. "You're lying to me again. If we are going to do this we have to keep it honest, Regina."

Regina spun around with wet eyes that still held a fire. "And what exactly are we doing, Em-ma?"

Emma gulped at the way Regina spoke and, if she were honest, she didn't know what she had meant. They weren't in a relationship, they were partners, but not in the way neither would admit to wanting to be. "We can't get through this as partners if we aren't honest. Better?"

Regina smirked at the flushed and flustered blonde before going over to the closet and pulling out clothes. "Okay, if you must know… I'll tell you."

Emma stood and waited as the woman walked past her to grab two towels before throwing them over her shoulder and walking from the room into the bathroom. "Regina! I thought you were going to tell me?"

Regina peeked her head around to look at the woman with lust written all over her face. "I am. First, I would like to take a shower to help with the tension in my shoulders. Join me, hmm?"

Emma's jaw was on the floor as she watched the woman speak and unbutton her shirt at the same time, not remembering how she got to be in the middle of the bathroom watching the show Regina was giving. She nodded wordlessly and pulled her own shirt over her head. The action caused Regina's breath to quicken, and her hands to work on her own clothes quicker, as she watched the muscles in Emma's stomach flutter and tense. Emma was done before Regina and stepped into he already running shower before the brunette came barreling after her to attach onto her neck instantly. Regina moaned as she felt Emma back into the shower wall and reach down to grab her ass, squeezing and rubbing and moaning as Regina continued her attack.

"Tell me." Emma encouraged and flipped their positions so Regina was the one with her back pressed into the shower wall, and Emma's lips running along her neck.

"Later," Regina groaned when Emma sucked a perfect earlobe into her mouth and ran her tongue along it.

Emma growled at the woman before she reached her hands down to find purchase on the back of the woman's thighs. "Tell me," Emma said with a smirk that found its way onto her lips when Regina moaned at her display of strength when the brunette found her feet off of the ground and hooked above Emma's ass.

Regina had a smirk of her own when she rocked into Emma's stiff member. "Later," she repeated and reached down to stroke Emma a couple of times before guiding her dick to her open wet heat.

Emma nodded and finally gave into the pleasure that only Regina could seem to give her. She pushed in and out a few time before the water dripping into her eyes became too much, she wanted to see Regina come undone. Emma stopped long enough to put the woman back on her feet and turn her around so that her front was pressed against the back wall of the shower. When she pushed back in she was please when Regina let out a needy whimper at the angle.

"H-Harder, Emma." Regina moaned louder when Emma pace sped up and practically screamed when the woman started pounding deeper than she thought possible.

Emma was pushing hard to hold herself but she could feel her balls tighten even further. She couldn't hold herself much longer so she reached her hand around and flicked Regina's clit to the rhythm that she was pounding in and out of her at. "Fuck, Regina!"

Regina was banging on the wall that her nails dragged down fruitlessly. She was overcome with the feelings Emma was supplying her body with. When she finally came Emma grunted at the almost painful tightening around her, she couldn't pull out when she came harder than she could remember ever coming.

Regina finally went limp against the wall while Emma pulled out of her. Emma wrapped her arms around the woman and turner them so she was under the now lukewarm water. Emma washed the woman's hair with something other than loving hands because that would never do. Regina reveled in the attention as she tried to keep her emotional walls as high as possible because enjoying Emma's non-loving hands washing her body just would not do.

Emma stepped out of the shower first and pulled Regina out behind her she could towel dry the woman's skin in smooth motions. Emma noticed Regina become shut off when she had slumped against the wall in the shower and she was trying not to make any sudden movements as if that would set the woman off and she would blow. Emma led the naked woman into the room, forgoing the pajama set Regina had set out for one of her high school t-shirts. Once Regina was dressed Emma put on boxers and a shirt of her own before leading the zombie-like brunette to the bed and sitting her down and sitting right beside her.

"Regina?" Emma asked as she took the woman's hand almost out of a habit she wouldn't admit to having.

"I'm fine, Emma," Regina repeated yet the way she squeezed Emma's hand when the blonde attempted to pull away said otherwise.

Emma nodded and confirmed that she wouldn't let go with a squeeze of her own. "Tell me, Regina."

Regina heaved two breaths before she looked up and into Emma's eyes when she finally spoke, scaring Emma all the way along. "My mother."

"Your mother what, Regina?" Emma was looking into the fearful brown eyes and watched as memories passed behind Regina's eyes.

"She is the one behind all of this, Emma."
