The Green Fairy


The night was quiet and serenity was all what Regina could feel in her soul. The insatiable thirst for vengeance and rage had vanished with the company of the blonde sleeping beside her. Emma's breathing woke the brunette in the middle of her sleep, as having someone in her bed wasn't something ordinary.

Regina had never shared her bed with anyone before, not even with the only pet she possessed before Emma. The huntsman always had to leave a few minutes after playing with his Mistress, because that was the way the Evil Queen wanted it. Getting close to someone wasn't going to lead her astray from her goal to cast a curse upon the Enchanted Forest denizens.

Regina got up from bed and covered her body with a cream camisole she still had from her youth. It was an innocent looking piece that she hadn't worn in years, but somehow she felt like it fit her mood this time.

Regina walked to her balcony and her gaze got lost in the sky looking at the beautiful stars shimmering brightly above the Dark Palace. She had never bothered to pay attention before to them until this night that showed her a glimpse of heaven in her own bed.

A small light started moving in the sky, it came flying to the brunette looking with curios eyes. The little sparkle turned into a girl next to her and Regina was surprised to see a green fairy come to meet her.

- "Hello, Regina!" The Green Fairy cheerfully greeted.
- "Excuse me, do I know you?" The brunette asked with confusion.
- "I'm Tinker Bell! Your fairy godmother." The fairy bowed and smiled brightly.
- "I never thought someone like me could have one." Regina responded with surprise.
- "Well, you do!" Tinker Bell assured her with joy.
- "Where have you been all these years?" Regina complained.
- "Fighting to see you! I was forbidden to visit you because of the Dark One." The blonde answered with worry.
- "And what changed now?" Regina asked.
- "You did, Regina! Haven't you noticed?" The fairy exclaimed.
- "Me?" Regina was puzzled.
- "True Love, Regina! You're glowing with it." Tinker Bell told her.

Regina tried to hide her blush from the fae; she looked in direction of her bed to see Emma sleeping soundly and smiled warmly with the vision.

- "But you really need to get away from your mentor." The fairy's tone was secretive.
- "Why? What's going to happen, Tinker Bell?" Regina asked with curiosity.
- "He will destroy your happy ending." The blonde said with worry.
- "My happy ending is Snow and Charming's heads on a plate." Regina muttered.
- "No, Regina! You can't continue looking for revenge." Tinker Bell said with disappointment.
- "Emma IS your happy ending. If you hurt her family, the only one you will destroy is yourself. Please think about it." The fairy said before flying back to her realm.

Tinker Bell's words left Regina pensive. She felt in her gut that the green fairy was right but she really wanted to make Snow and Charming pay for trapping her in the spell that turned her to stone for nearly three decades. She was conflicted about her True Love being her worst enemies' daughter. What a wicked fate she had, the brunette thought.


The Green Fairy arrived in her realm and was greeted by the Blue Fairy, who wasn't happy about her apprentice's disobedience.

- "Green! You know you are forbidden from seeing Regina." Blue reprimanded.
- "It's Tinker Bell. And I had to warn her!" The blonde girl replied.
- "You're lucky to come back alive, given who Regina's mentor is." Blue scolded her.
- "But she's not the Dark One. She's changed with True Love!" Tinker Bell defended her protégée.
- "About that… What were you thinking, Green?" Blue asked with mixed anger and worry.
- "I don't know what you mean?" The Green Fairy looked away.
- "I know it was you who sprinkled pixie dust over Snow's newborn that day." Blue refreshed her memory.
- "I thought it had been a boy…" The blonde tried to justify.
- "That still doesn't make it right, Green." Blue sighed with disappointment.
- "Everyone deserves a second chance!" Tinker Bell protested.
- "And making the Savior the Evil Queen's true love seemed logic to you, Tinker Bell?" Blue snapped.
- "Of course! Because True Love can break any curse." Tinker Bell had the right answer.
- "I hope you chose right, Tink." The Blue Fairy said before flying away.


Back in the Dark Palace Regina couldn't fall asleep again, as she kept hearing Tinker Bell's words inside her head. She knew Rumplestiltskin couldn't be trusted and she remembered how he went mad about the Blue Fairy meddling with his business. It was as if the curse was something he desperately needed to be cast.

But Regina couldn't think about any reasons why the Dark One would want to be cursed together with the rest of the residents of their fairytale world and come to a land without magic. It made no sense. He was the most powerful warlock in the realm and there was no logic in giving up what he treasured most: magic.

There was more that kept Regina awake and feeling conflicted about her new situation. She wanted with all her being to make her enemies suffer eternally, but her love for Emma made it impossible to cast the curse or cause her parents any damage. The brunette then remembered a solution that could put an end to her constant inner battle.

Regina went into her vault once more and looked for the ingredients needed to create her ancient potion of forgetting. She would forget about the curse and her hunger for revenge but she wouldn't forget about Emma and her love for her. She hesitated before drinking from the effervescent glass but finally gathered the courage to let her grudge drift into oblivion.

Regina felt a heavy weight lift from her shoulders. She was renewed and the only time she had ever felt this light had been when Emma carried her in her arms to their love nest. She quickly remembered she left the blonde alone in her bedchambers and teleported in a mist to her bed, where the princess was still sound asleep. The brunette nestled her head on the blonde's chest and quickly fell asleep in the warmth of her lover's embrace.

Rays of sunshine filtered through the balcony and Emma's eyes slowly opened to see Regina's sleepy face over her chest. She smiled warmly and gently brushed away some of the hair covering the brunette's beautiful face. Emma had no doubt this was her happy ending and she would do whatever it takes to convince her lover about her true feelings and intention.

- "Good morning." Emma whispered to Regina who was opening her eyes to see her.
- "How long have you been staring?" Regina asked blushing.
- "Not long enough." Emma answered warmly.
- "I look awful in the morning." The brunette muttered as she rolled off Emma.
- "I beg to differ." The blonde told her.

Emma was upset by Regina's avoidance, so she quickly rolled over the brunette and pinned her once again under her grip. She really was a dominant lover and Regina sure loved it. Emma's mouth soon found Regina's, kissing deeply the crimson lips she knew she would never grow tired of savoring. Regina could feel her pulse speeding, as gold curls brushed over her skin while Emma made her way down her neck, kissing and tasting her lover's skin.

Regina felt like an idiot for blushing like a teenager with every inch Emma continued to advance on her way down her torso. The blonde had shown just how "amateur" her touch was the previous night when she made the brunette lose control over her own body and succumb into the bliss of their love making. But seeing Emma travel down her body with her mouth was different from last night and Regina felt embarrassed, like a virgin having her first experience.

After indulging in her lover's body, Emma was now resting on Regina's chest and they both shimmered with True Love's afterglow. The princess was gazing deep into caramel eyes when she finally opened her mouth to speak the words she had never imagined herself saying.

- "Marry me." Emma said in a soft whisper.
- "What?" Regina nearly jumped. She thought she heard wrong.
- "Would you do me the honor of sharing a lifetime as my wife?" Emma rephrased.

Regina was overwhelmed, she really wanted to say yes but she feared it was too good to be true and that someone might come through the door to rip out her True Love's heart. She took a little too long to respond and Emma's eyes filled with tears.

- "Do you still doubt me?" Emma asked while trying to keep her tears from falling.
- "NO! It isn't that, Emma." Regina answered with worry.
- "Then tell me what it is because you sure are a puzzle." The blonde told her.
- "I don't want anything bad happening to you." Regina reveled her fear.
- "Nothing is going to happen to me, Gina." Her lover answered.
- "I…" Regina was thinking what to say but Emma interrupted her.
- "I will only ask one more time. I can take a no for an answer." The blonde said with a serious tone the brunette hadn't heard from her before.
- "Will you marry me, Regina?" Emma asked with a trembling voice.
- "A thousand times yes." Regina responded through tears of joy.

They kissed like there would be no tomorrow and entangled their bodies to be as close as they could possibly get. Nothing could come in between them; they felt their love was more powerful than the evil lurking around them.
