Hey everyone I know the story hasn't been very happy but I promise there will be some good soon. Stick with me and please let me know what you're thinking!
That night they assumed the same position as the night before. Regina laid in between Emma's legs and snuggled close. They wrapped themselves in the blankets and prayed the night would pass quickly. They hadn't spoken much since Rumple's visit. Regina had retreated into herself and Emma just let her. The more and more Regina lost hope Emma felt herself doing the same. She was staring to face reality and she knew Regina had been right this whole time, they weren't going to get the cure, and even if they did it would be too late. They had two days left together and she decided that she wanted to spend that with Regina in her lap instead of running helplessly through the woods. "Emma?"
"Yes?" she asked snapping out of her thoughts.
"I'm sorry I couldn't help us earlier."
Emma frowned, "Its ok I'm not blaming you for anything, and stop apologizing."
"Well I'd like to apologize one more time in advance. Tomorrow starts the hallucinations and I don't know what I'll say, do, who or what I'll see. I just want to say I'm sorry for anything that happens," she said softly. She closed her eyes and pressed her cheek into her chest.
"I know, and it's going to be ok. On the Brightside you'll be able to see, right?"
"Right," she muttered. She wanted to tell her that being able to see will make the hallucinations even more real but she held her tongue. "I've made a real mess of things."
"None of this is your fault."
"But isn't it?..."
"Stop, we aren't having this conversation. Can we just… talk about something happy instead?" she felt Regina nod against her chest. Emma ran her fingers through her hair knowing she loved it. Regina smiled at the touch and tried to think happy thoughts.
"What do you think Henry's doing?"
"…I bet he's with my parents worrying about us."
"I hope he's ok."
"Kid's tough, I think he can last a few days without us," she smiled.
"I know, I just worry about him, and I miss him."
"Just think, in a few years from now he'll be going off the college and we'll only get to see him on holidays."
"Oh Emma I don't think this is a very happy topic," she chuckled wiping away the stray tears.
"You know I don't think I've ever thanked you properly."
"Thanked me for what?"
"Raising him. He would not be the kid he is today if it had been me."
"No need to thank me, I enjoyed every moment. Now you're here and we're doing it together… like the family he's always wanted."
"You know when we get home I'm going to tell him about us. You know except for the casual sex part," she laughed. "I'm going to tell him that we had was complicated and scary and didn't make much sense but we loved each other. I'm going to tell him that his moms loved each other," she said getting choked up. "Through these past four years, through all the anger and hatred we fell in love and no one will ever be able to take that away." Her lips quivered as a stream of tears slid down her cheeks.
Regina felt a wave of sadness wash over her hearing Emma talk in the past tense. "Emma…"
"You're going to die Regina and there are so many things that we didn't get to do. We never went on a proper first date, we never went on a second date. We never got to tell Henry that we were finally going to be a family. We never got the watch the expression on my mother's face after telling her I've been screwing the Evil Queen," that earned a small laugh from Regina.
"That's something I'd pay to see," she said wiping away her own tears.
"We'll never get to fight over movie night or what was for dinner. You'll never have the chance to yell at me for working late or staying out with Ruby all night long. We'll never talk about moving in together of have that stressful conversation about whether or not we want more kids…." They were both crying now thinking about what could have been. "So I promise you that these next few days are just going to be me and you together taking in our last moment together."
…
There was a soft knock on the glass door before it slowly opened. "May I come in?"
"Well it appears you're already doing so," she says without looking up from her desk. She heard the door shut, the lock click, and leather boots approaching. "What can I do for you Sheriff?" Regina asked looking up with a smile.
"Oh I think you know," Emma smirked. "I told you I'd be stopping by today."
"I recall, I was expecting you at lunch but you didn't show."
"Got caught up in a few things, duty calls," she said circling the Mayors desk. "I think it's time you reward me for my hard work." Regina stood from her chair pressing her chest to the blondes.
"And what have you done that deserves rewarding?" she teased. Their lips were millimeters apart taking in each other's breath as they spoke.
"Why protecting the town of course."
"Well that is a very important job I suppose."
"My thoughts exactly." Without any hesitation or warning Emma wrapped her arms around her waist and lifted her up onto the desk. Regina immediately wrapped her legs around the back of her knees pulling her in close. Their lips quickly found each other and latched on. The kiss was strong and passionate, eager for more taste. Emma slowly ran her hand up Regina's Skirt, teasing the soaked fabric. She could feel Regina aching for her and decided she wasn't going to make her wait... not his time at least. Pushing the silky fabric aside a long finger swept through her wet folds causing her to moan.
"Emma please,"
Emma kissed down her jaw to her neck. Sucking at her pulse point she pushed two fingers inside her. She felt Regina relax in her arms but quickly straighten back up as she pulled her closer. Emma's thrusts became fast and harder knowing she was close. Using her thumb she rubbed small circles against her clit bringing her even closer to the edge. Regina whimpered as her walls clenched around Emma's fingers. "Emmaaa-" she called out her name. Emma kissed her again muffling her screams. After she climaxed Emma let her ride that last few waves of the organs before pulling out. Cleaning her fingers Regina kissed her sinfully tasting herself on her lips and tongue. "I thought I was supposed to be rewarding you," she said catching her breath.
"No one said we were finished," she smiled.
…
Regina's eyes shot open, waking form her dream. Was it still considered a dream if it was a memory? She squinted and turned her head so the sun wasn't in her eyes. She could see, she never thought she would be so happy to have the morning sun in her eyes. Once she was fully awake she finally registered that what she was lying on was not soft at all. Looking down she saw that she was lying on a fallen tree. Emma must have moved her and gone somewhere. "Emma?" she looked around and her gaze stopped seeing her standing in front of her. Her mouth went dry seeing Emma standing before her in only her bra and underwear.
"Good you're finally awake," Emma purred as she approached her. "I've missed you."
"Missed me? We've been together for days."
"I know but not like this," she said getting closer. Regina wanted to protest because she was in no state for such attention but temptation took over. "Give me a kiss," she slurred.
"Regina!" Regina heard her name and watched as Emma disappeared.
"Wha-?"
"Regina,"
She looked done and saw Emma beneath her. "Bu-" she was just lying on a tree.
"You ok?"
"I don't know. You we just over there and now you're here," she tried to explain.
"Hallucination?"
"Yeah… I guess you're right." Regina had no idea the hallucinations were going to be so realistic. This was not going to be fun.
