"You WHAT?" Ruby plopped onto the couch next to Emma, not being able to believe what her friend just told her. It just didn't make any sense, why would Emma faint out of nowhere?

"You heard me." Emma looked down to her feet that were resting on the small coffee table in the apartment. She really needed to move out, and move out fast. Its like I´m living with my mom or something. Poor M&M. Emma giggled to herself before she remember why she invited Ruby to come here in the first place.

"You fainted?"

"Yup." Emma nodded and took a sip of her cool beer.

"In front of Regina?" Ruby still couldn't get past her friend fainting in front of Regina.

"Yes Ruby, that is what I said. I fainted in front of Regina. Well, more like by her side..Henry was between us, either way, that's what happened." She closed her eyes and leaned her head on the back of the couch, trying to clear her mind. And for a moment she thought Ruby got up and walked out of the apartment, but the waitress was only taking a moment to think about what happened and why.

"So...what? Did you like think of her naked and all of a sudden couldn't handle the hotness that the Mayor McHottie is?" Emmas eyes snapped open at that question, and not a second later her cheeks flushed a deep red with the thought of Regina naked. Not that I thought of how she would like like naked before...

"What the hell Ruby! No, I didn't think of Regina naked...this time." She whispered the last part to herself, but the girl with almost wolf hearing heard her loud and clear and as she saw the deep red covering her friends cheeks, but she chose not to mention it. She knew her friend had it bad for the Mayor, and she wanted them to be together, they might have seem like an odd couple at first, but in the long run, they would be each others ying and yang. The rain to the bow, the ketch to the up, the peng to the uin. In one word, perfect match. Okay, maybe two words.

"So, why did you faint?" Ruby turned around facing Emma, as the later fiddled with her hands nervously.

"I was thinking about asking Regina on a date, and I had it all planed out in my head, if she sais yes, or if she sais no. Then I called out her name, and I...I got dizzy, my palms were sweaty, my heart was racing and I thought I might explode. Next thing I know I was looking up at Regina that held a cold towel on my head. Ruby...I need help man. Either to get Regina, or get a shrink. Both will cost me my sanity."

"You know what Ems, lets leave the shrink as the last solution. Time to plan your way into Reginas pants. Or skirt, what ever she is wearing at that moment." Ruby chuckled and looked over at Emma that only rolled her eyes and stood up from her seat.

"What? Isn't that what you want?" The waitress knew that that was not all Emma wanted from Regina. And she also knew something Emma didn't know. That Regina wants Emma just as much as Emma wants Regina. How did she know that? Well, a certain blonde showed up at the dinner today, ordering some smoking hot coffee with a side of alliance from the waitress.

The two hit it of immediately, both with their own ideas wanting to put the Mayor and the Sheriff together as soon as possible and they arranged to meet the next morning to discus step one.

Who knew Kathryn would turn out to support these two idiots aka future love birds. Well, at least I wont have to fangirl about them on my own. We have to come up with a name for them. Hmm...maybe Mayor Swan? No, that's not good. Mayor Sheriff? Nope, not that. that's just not giving it the badass sound, I'll have to think up something later before...

"Ruby?" Emma poked Rubys shoulder and watched her closely.

"What?" Ruby shook of her head and blinked up, a sheepish smile on her face as she looked up at Emma. She realized she went of to her own thought not paying attention to what Emma was explaining to her.

"You didn't hear a word I said, did you?" Emma walked over to her room, leaving the door open and reappeared half a minute later with her red jacket on her and her car keys in one hand.

Ruby just fallowed her as she walked out of the apartment. She felt bad for not listening to what Emma was saying before, but in her mind...she had a good reason for it, I mean... she is planing to hook up Regina and Emma, that gives her pretty much an awesome excuse for everything, just without having to explain to people what the hell she was thinking about.

"Sorry." Ruby finally uttered the words as they reached Emmas yellow bug. She remembered that Emma called her over for a reason in the first place. "Wait, remind me where we are going."

They sat down in the bug, fastening their seat belts before Emma turned on the engines and hit the road. She glanced over at at Ruby for a moment, then put her focus back onto the street.

"We are picking up a friend of mine from Boston, shes gonna be here in like ten minutes, and you said you will let her stay at your place. No charge."

"When did I say that?" Ruby tried to stretch her legs a bit, but realized that the tiny bug, was a little bit too tinny for her. She watched the road carefully as Emma parked the car near the bus stop and turned of the engines. She took a look around leaned back onto the seat.

"Somewhere between not listening to me and the word sorry." Emma unbuckled her seat belt and open the car door as she saw a bus approaching the bus stop. Ruby fallowed and walked over to Emmas side, not being able to remember ever saying those words. But if it was a friend of Emmas, they cant be that bad, could they? I think I´ll just go with it. If she sais I said it, then so be it. I´m a woman of my word. Most of the time, well...sometimes. Okay, almost never, but its for Emma, so, I can let a stranger into my house...I think.

"Okay Ruby, remember...do not jump on her the moment you see her. Shes kind of shy, but a great friend of mine. Might take her a while to open up to others, so behave." The bus stooped and the door opened, only a few passengers walking out of it, slowly.

"Why would I jump on her? Why should I behave? Are you saying I´m not well behaved? Emma, cmon, you know I wont jump on..." Rubys eyes followed where Emma ran over and hugged a girl, and she now knew why Emma thought she would jump on her. The girl was freaking beautiful. She looked like a shy school girl, clutching to her bag as Emma pointed her to where her car stood, and the moment she looked up at Ruby, her cheeks flushed a light pink. It could have been from the cool wind blowing, but this once, Ruby will imagine it was because of her.

Okay, so maybe I do want to jump on her...a lot.

As soon as Emma and her friend reached the car, Ruby put on her biggest smile and reached out to take the girls bag and put it in the car. She turned back around on her heal and saw the girls gaze running up and down her.

"Hi there. I'm Ruby." She extended her hand over to her and the girl took it smiling up at the tall brunette.

"Hello Ruby. I´m Belle, its very nice to meet you." The slight accent in her words took Ruby by surprise and she smiled even brighter at the girl whos hands she was still holding.

Neither of the girls noticed Emmas eye roll as she watched her two friends hitting it of immediately.
