Uh…hi again…sorry for taking so long to update…again xD

I don't really have like a muse for writing so I guess that's part of the reason I take so fucking long to actually sit down and write. For anyone who was really interested in this story I apologise for making you wait for so long, I'll try and be better (yes I know I've said this before but…I am serious this time!)I just need to try and stay inspired for you guys!

Oh also, remember someone saying they didn't really like that I have a previously at the start of each chapter, the reason I do that is because I don't write that often so if people don't want to go back and read a chapter then they can just check out the previously thing and get the gist of that chapter as I try to make sure the chapters kind of have only one topic at a time…if that doesn't make sense I'm sorry but it makes sense in my head xD

Anyways,

Enjoy!

SWANQUEEN

Previously…

Emma tapped on her son's bedroom door and peeked her head through, "Kid? Can we talk?"

"I'm sorry my mom hurt you." was Henry's reply.

The blonde sighed, "Kid...I was hurt, I'm not gonna lie. But even though I got hurt, it still all worked out because...well look what's happened! Your mom and I are having a baby together! You're gonna have a baby brother or sister!"

"I know and I'm excited! I just..."

"Really want us all to be a proper family, I know Henry, and I'm not gonna lie, that sounds great but...I'm not gonna force your mom into a relationship okay? She's already had that and I don't wanna hurt her like that."

"I know! I get it okay! I just, I don't want the baby to grow up in two different houses...I mean I'm thirteen and I don't even like it that much, I love seeing you and mom but I'm so tired of this living in two houses stuff..."

"Oh Henry...I get that, trust me, no one understands that more than I do, and I love that you're so concerned for your little brother or sister but you just let me and your mom worry about that okay? We'll figure it all out when the time comes. You just enjoy being a kid and we'll worry about all that stuff."

"Okay ma...can I ask you something though?" Henry looked up at his mother for the first time.

"Anything Henry." she looked him right in the eyes.

"Do you really like my mom? Like like like her?"

Emma grinned, "You want the truth?" he nodded, "Well, if I'm honest Henry...I've loved your mom for the longest time, and us having this baby? I can't even begin to tell you how happy and excited I am."

Henry's eyes lit up, "Really?! You have to tell her! She loves you too I know it! She's just afraid of getting hurt again, but once you tell her how you feel she won't be scared anymore!"

"Woah, woah kid calm down. I...I want to tell your mom but these things take time okay? And with the baby, I don't wanna stress her out because if she gets too stressed, it could really hurt the baby."

"You're right...but...maybe once the baby's here...you guys can talk?"

Emma chuckled and hugged her son, "We'll see kid, we'll see."

Little did they know, Regina was standing right outside the door and she heard everything...and she was crying her heart out.

Oh Emma...if only you knew...I wish I wasn't so afraid...

SWANQUEEN

Two months later…

Regina was now four months pregnant, she was craving things like grilled cheese sandwiches and bear claws, because of course she was right? She's carrying Emma Swan's baby! She was also starting to notice her hormones changing, mostly she would cry at small things and get even more pissed off at things too, but right now at this very moment, all she was feeling…was horny.

Yup…that's the only thing she was feeling.

She couldn't even do anything about it because herself and Emma were about to leave to go for her appointment with Dr. James, and honestly, Regina was dreading it. Because she was about to be in a room with two of the hottest women in Storybrooke while feeling extremely aroused. She told herself that as soon as she got home she would lock herself in either her bathroom or bedroom and stay there hopefully uninterrupted until she…felt better.

Emma was waiting for Regina in the foyer and as the brunette came walking down the stairs, her hair, clothes and make up flawless as always, she couldn't stop looking at Regina's stomach that was now sporting a bump where their unborn baby lived, Regina noticed Emma looking at the bump and smiled, even when she reached the bottom of the stairs where Emma was, the blonde was still looking at the bump. Regina cleared her throat.

"Oh, sorry." Emma blushed, "I just…I can't believe my…our baby is in there."

Regina smiled at Emma with tears threatening to fall, "I know, I can't believe it either if I'm honest."

The two looked into each other's eyes for what felt like hours when Emma's phone suddenly started blasting some song Regina hadn't heard before. "Oh that's my alarm, I set it in case we somehow started to run late for the appointment, we should probably get going now." And with that the sheriff strode outside to her car.

Regina was stuck where she stood for a moment, she was amazed at Emma's commitment, not that she thought the blonde wasn't going to be committed, she just had no idea Emma would be this excited. She was brought out of her trance when she heard Emma yelling her name, the brunette shook her head and walked over to the blonde.

Emma reached out to touch Regina's arm, "Hey, you okay?" she asked with a kind smile.

Regina returned the smile, "Yes, yes I'm fine, just a little nervous I guess…mostly excited though."

Emma chuckled, "Yeah, same here. So, you ready to go?"

"Yes, but not in that thing." The mayor replied, referring to the yellow beetle herself and Emma were standing next to.

Here we go again…Emma thought, "Regina, we've been over this, my car is perfectly safe! And it's me you're with! Don't you trust my driving skills?"

"Oh I trust you dear, I just don't trust your metal coffin on wheels."

"Regina, please just get in the car, we're gonna be late! Why don't I buy you some bear claws on the way back? I know you've been craving them a lot recently."

Regina hesitated, "…deal." She said finally and got in the passenger seat of the "metal coffin on wheels"

While in the car Regina could feel her arousal growing since Emma had taken off her jacket(yes the red leather one)to reveal her strong arms since she was only wearing a tank top under the jacket. Regina couldn't help but stare at those beautiful arms.

"God it's so hot today huh?" Emma said as she was taking the jacket off. She also caught Regina staring at her arms and smirked, she tensed her hands around the steering wheel so her muscles flexed and Regina got an even better look at how toned Emma's arms were. When the blonde noticed Regina was literally about to start drooling she turned her head back to look at the road and begin their journey to the hospital and cleared her throat, "Regina?"

Regina snapped her head up, "Sorry Emma, what did you say?" blushing and squirming trying to relive some of the ache between her legs.

"I said, it's really hot today, isn't it?" Emma replied with a smirk.

Regina blushed again, "Oh, um, yes, yes it is."

Emma kept smirking and Regina kept squirming the whole way to the hospital.

SWANQUEEN

This was actually the first time Emma would be meeting Doctor Alex James, since apparently she was sick the last appointment Regina had. She looked forward to meeting her, from what Regina had told her she's a lovely woman and a good doctor.

"Regina Mills?" suddenly, said doctor appeared in the waiting room, where Regina was reading a magazine and Emma was playing a game on her phone.

Regina and Emma smiled at Dr James and followed her into the room their appointment was obviously about to take place.

"It's good to see you again Madame Mayor, I'm glad to see you're looking well." Alex greeted with a kind smile. "And Sheriff Swan! How nice to see you here, here to support Regina I'm guessing?" No one in town other than Henry and obviously a couple doctors and nurses at the hospital knew that Regina was pregnant with Emma's baby. Regina, although she would never admit it, was scared to tell people, especially Snow and Charming. They had been getting along recently and Regina was afraid to ruin that. She and Emma had been discussing telling them since now Regina's baby bump was starting to show.

Emma laughed nervously, "Uh, actually I uh…well I…"

Regina helped Emma out, "She's the baby's other mother." She said simply.

Alex looked a mix between shocked and disappointed, "Oh…I see. H-how exactly did um…how did this happen?"

Why the hell does she look so sad about the fact that I got Regina pregnant? Emma thought. "We uh…slept together and my magic may have gotten out of control a little."

"Oh, I had no idea you two were together." Alex replied. Still looking little sad, she had a huge crush on the mayor, she admired the woman, and how much strength she had, but if Emma and Regina were a couple then…she could forget about her crush, right?

"Actually Dr James," Regina cut in, "we aren't together."

The doctor's eyebrows furrowed, "Oh?...Oh! I see." That gave her a little hope. If what happened with Emma and Regina was just a one night stand then maybe she still had a chance with the mayor.

"Yes and we'd appreciate it if you didn't go around telling everyone our business."

Alex quickly reassured the mayor, "Of course, I'm a firm believer of doctor patient confidentiality, I would never go telling anyone anything you didn't want me to Regina." She finished with her kind, beautiful smile.

Regina smiled back, Emma looked to Regina, then Alex, then back to Regina.

Oh hell no. She thought, "So," the blonde started, loudly, "shall we get this show on the road?"

"Oh right, sorry." The doctor blushed.

Dr James got to work doing what she needed to do and a few minutes later, they were looking at Emma and Regina's tiny baby in Regina's womb.

Needless to say, both mothers had tears in their eyes, "Woah," Emma gasped, "that's our baby."

Regina couldn't tear her eyes from the monitor, "Yes, yes it is."

"Would you like to know the sex of the baby?" the doctor asked.

Emma and Regina hadn't even talked about whether or not they wanted to know, they were too busy focusing on when they were going to tell people.

Emma looked to Regina, "What do you think?"

"I think I'd like to be prepared but Emma this is a joint decision, if you don't want to know then that's fine." Regina reassured Emma by holding her hand, and for a second, Emma forgot how to breathe.

"Uh…I think I'd like to be prepared too actually." She nodded.

"Alright then, let's see…"

The mayor and the sheriff squeezed each other's hands.

"You're going to have a baby…girl."

"A girl? We're having a girl? Regina! We're having a girl! Can you believe it?!" Emma was so excited, she loved Henry, but one boy was definitely enough…for now at least.

"We…a girl. I'm going to have a daughter. Oh my god." Regina was almost sobbing at this point.

Emma quickly jumped up to hug the older woman, "Yeah Regina…you're gonna have a daughter."

Alex watched on with a smile. She was happy for them of course but she couldn't help but be jealous. "Congratulations ladies. I'll give you two a minute while I get these pictures of your girl copied, I assume you want one each?"

"Yes please, and can we get an extra one to give to my parents?" Emma asked.

"Of course, I'll be right back."

And with that the doctor was gone and Emma and Regina broke their embrace, although they were still very close to each other.

"Emma I…I can't believe this is happening. I'm going to be a mother again. I'm going to have a daughter. We are going to have a daughter!"

Emma chuckled slightly, "Yeah Regina, we are!"

The women hugged again until Dr James got back about five minutes later, "Sorry for making you wait ladies, but I assure you these are so worth the wait." She handed Emma two scan pictures, one for herself and one for her parents, then walked around the bed to hand Regina another one, she leaned in close to the mayor as she handed her the picture, "There she is, there's your baby." She said softly as she pointed to where the baby was on the picture.

Regina looked into the doctor's kind eyes and smiled, "Thank you Dr James."

Alex smiled back, "Of course, and please, call me Alex."

"Okay…Alex."

What the fuck is going on here? Emma wanted to either scream or storm out the room, but she didn't she just looked away from Regina and Alex and back to the picture of the baby. I guess I don't have much right to be jealous…technically Regina is single, she can be with whoever she wants.

Emma was just feeling uncomfortable now as the two women were still staring at each other a couple minutes later, so she cleared her throat and squirmed in her chair.

Alex and Regina whipped their heads to look at Emma, Regina quickly glanced at the clock. "Oh, look at the time, we should probably let you get back to work, I'm sure you have a lot more patients to see."

Gee, thanks Sheriff Swan. Alex thought, "Actually I-" she cut herself off, "Uh, yeah…I'm super busy today…" she tried to play it cool. "But just remember Regina, if you need anything, anything at all, call me."

Emma scoffed, "She's got me, I'm sure she'll be fine." Shit did I say that out loud?

"Emma!" Regina scolded.

"Right, of course Sheriff, I just-"

This time Regina cut the doctor off. "You don't have to explain yourself to her Alex. Our dear Sheriff is probably just acting this way because she hasn't had her precious grilled cheese sandwich and a bear claw yet."

Now Emma stormed off, looking a lot like Henry in that moment. Alex tried her best not to laugh.

"I apologise for that Alex, I'm not sure what came over her."

"It's okay Regina, honestly. I was serious though, if you ever need anything…" she trailed off.

"I know. Thank you." Regina smiled.

SWANQUEEN

Regina stormed as best she could with her swelling stomach towards Emma who was standing outside the bug waiting for the older woman. When the brunette reached the blonde she asked, "What the hell was that?"

"What?" Emma spat back.

"Don't play coy Emma, Alex is being so good and patient with us and you treated her like shit when all she was trying to do was help!"

"Just forget it Regina, it was nothing." I was pissed because she was clearly hitting on you…

Regina scoffed, "You know what Emma? Fine, act like a child like you always do."

"I'm not acting like a child Regina! I just…she's your doctor not your friend! Why is she trying to act like she's gonna be your best friend?!" More like girlfriend.

The mayor looked sad now, "So what if she wants to be my friend? What the evil queen isn't allowed to make friends?"

Shit, "Regina that's not what I meant."

"Forget it Swan." Regina spat and started walking away.

"Where are you going?!" Emma called after her.

"Where do you think? Home!"

"Regina get in the car and let me drive you!" Regina stayed silent and kept walking, then suddenly vanishing in a puff of purple smoke. "Regina!" Emma kicked a tyre of the bug, "Fuck!"

SWANQUEEN

When Regina got home, she went straight to her room, but not to do what she had originally planned, instead she lay in bed, her hands over her baby bump, and cried.

She couldn't believe what Emma said to her.

She said she cared about me...why would she say what she did if she cared about me?

All of a sudden she heard her phone ringing; she picked it up to check the caller ID in case it was Henry calling. When she saw Dr Alex James on the phone screen she began to panic, so she answered it immediately.

"Alex? What is it? Is something wrong with the baby?"

Alex heard the fear in Regina's voice and was quick to reassure her, "Everything's fine Regina, don't worry, I'm just calling to let you know that I think you left your purse here."

Regina let out a sigh of relief, "Oh thank god."

Has she been crying? "Regina, are you alright? You sound like you've been crying."

The queen cleared her throat, "I-I'm fine just…mood swings."

"Regina are you sure? Remember what I said, whatever you need, I'm there for you." The doctor was starting to worry now.

"I know, thank you." Maybe I should just tell her, it's not like anyone else will listen…

"Regina?" Alex said after a minute of silence.

"Sorry. I just…Emma and I had a bit of an argument earlier when we left you. I wasn't happy with her and the way she spoke to you."

"Oh…Regina it's fine, really. I mean I've had worse."

"No, it's not fine. You were just trying to be kind and helpful and she was just being a…well a bitch."

"I'm sorry you fought Regina, is there anything I can do?" Like take you out to dinner…

Regina smiled, her tears beginning to dry, "I don't think so, I can't think of anything."

"Well if and when you do think of something, let me know."

"I will."

"So you're sure there's nothing I can do right now? You don't need anything?"

Regina thought for a second, shit, Emma was supposed to take me to the store to pick up some things for dinner. "Um…actually…"she trailed off.

"Regina? What is it?" Alex frowned.

"This is so embarrassing but…Emma and I were supposed to go grocery shopping after our appointment…"

"I see. Well what do you need? My shift just ended, I can go to the store for you if you want, it wouldn't be a problem, I have to pick a few things up for myself anyway."

"I hate to ask, but thank you Alex. Lately I've been craving junk food, I was thinking of pizza this evening, homemade, Henry loves it."

"Pizza ingredients, got it, anything else?"

"No that's everything for now, thank you Alex, I really appreciate this. I'll give you the money when you get here." Regina insisted.

"You don't have to give me any money Regina, I'm doing this because I care, not for money or anything."

"I'm learning that I have to pick my battles, and I get the feeling that I'm not going to win this one so, how about I make extra pizza for you too?"

The doctor's face lit up at the thought of eating dinner with Regina, "Homemade pizza and great company? Count me in!" She replied smoothly, "As long as it's not too much trouble."

"It's not trouble at all dear, honestly I could do with the company myself, Henry is with his grandparents tonight and Emma well…you know."

"Yeah…I'll be there as soon as I can Regina, I can't wait to try this pizza."

Regina laughed, "I can't wait for you to try it." Really Regina? What was that? I can't wait for you to try it? So stupid.

Alex laughed too, "I'll see you soon."

SWANQUEEN

It was now a couple hours later and Regina and Alex had just sat down to eat after making the pizza together. Alex insisted on helping Regina.

Alex had just taken her first bite of pizza, "Oh my god," she moaned, "Regina this is amazing! Best pizza I have ever tasted for sure!"

Regina chuckled, "Well thank you dear, I'm glad you like it."

They continued their meal, making small talk, then after they ate they went into the living room to relax and talk some more. Regina had given Alex some apple cider, and Regina herself had apple juice.

"So I must say, I'm curious, what's your life like outside the hospital?" Regina asked, genuinely interested.

"Well to be honest there's not much to tell. I'm not too close to my family and I don't have many friends and the friends that I do have also work at the hospital so they're pretty busy too." Alex replied, a slightly sad look on her face. Only slightly because she was with Regina fucking Mills right now, how could she be any more than a little sad?

Regina reached over to gently place her hand on top of Alex's, "That sounds terribly lonely, I'm sorry." She smiled at the younger woman and asked, "So no partner to go home to?"

"Nope, no one, no girlfriend at all. Hell not even a goldfish." She said with a chuckle.

"I have to say I'm surprised you don't have a girlfriend."

"Oh really?" Alex smirked.

"Yes, you're beautiful, intelligent, very sweet, kind and caring, and also funny. How could you possibly be single?"

Alex looked into Regina's eyes, "I should ask you the same question. You're all those things and more Regina."

Regina blushed and looked down at her lap, "Oh stop. See, that's how kind you are, you're just saying that to make me feel better about myself."

"No, I'm saying it because it's true. Anyone would be extremely lucky to have you Regina Mills."

Regina looked up and saw Alex gazing into her eyes, "Thank you Alex. That means a lot to me."

Alex smiled, "I'm just being honest."

They were looking and smiling at each other for what felt like minutes.

Fuck…I want to kiss her so bad. Alex thought.

Should I kiss her? Is she going to kiss me? Do I want to kiss her? Yes…of course I do. Regina thought.

Slowly, Alex started to lean in…

Cliff-hanger time! Sorry people! Don't worry, this is a SwanQueen endgame story, I just want to take things a little slow but hopefully keep it interesting…if that makes sense xD

Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed, let me know how this chapter was!

Sorry for any mistakes made!
