Guest asked for one with sq have a baby and Emma is overly attached to their baby girl.


the one with the overprotective Emma


"Careful with her head, careful! Are you sure you got her?" Emma asked as she placed her new baby girl in the arms of Snow.

"I have done this before, Emma. I do know how to hold a baby!" Snow fixed her posture as she looked down at her granddaughter.

"I know.. I know, she's just very specific as to how she likes to be held!" Snow glared at her daughter. "What? Certain positions upset her!" Emma shrugged with her statement

"Certain everything upsets her according to you dear!" Regina walked in smiling at her wife. "You use to tell me that sleeping on my side upset her just because she use to kick me a little harder. She is a baby Emma; she wants to be held I am pretty sure there is no wrong way to hold her." Regina sat next to Snow on the couch bringing her feet up.

"I have to give it to you Regina, this is one adorable baby you made here!" Snow said in her best baby voice as she looked down at the beautiful bundle she was holding

"Hey, I definitely had a huge part in making that too!" Emma objected as she sat on the floor with her back to the couch under her wife

"Eww! I don't want the details of that. But Emma you have to admit this baby is like Regina's twin!" Snow looked at her daughter who knew she was right.

"Dahlia began to stir and let out a small shriek." Emma stood quickly;

"She must be hungry, maybe she is uncomfortable." Emma said as she took the baby from Snow's arms.

"Emma, she is fine she was just stretching!" Snow frowned as the baby was taken from her.

"I think she is probably hungry." Emma didn't even flinch at the face her mother was making her.

"I should go!" Snow stood kissed Regina good bye and gave her granddaughter a light kiss on her forehead as she made her way to the door.

"Snow wait!" Regina yelled to her mother in law, but Snow had already walked out of the house.

Regina glared at her wife and Emma shrugged.

"What is your problem? Why would you do that?" Regina stood to take the now wailing baby from Emma's arms.

"I didn't do that I told you she is hungry!" Emma looked on in confusion.

"She is not hungry she ate 30 minutes ago; the problem is that she is tired. And she was sleeping peacefully in her grandmother's arms until you snatched her and woke her." Regina bounced the baby back to a peaceful sleep as she lowered her into the basinet that sat in their study.

"I can't believe you did that!" Regina whispered as she made her way out of the study.

Emma peeked into the basinet to make sure Dahlia was sleeping, she moved the blanket to cover her a little more and made her way out of the study to meet Regina in the kitchen.

"I didn't mean to make her cry, I thought she was hungry!" Emma said earnestly

"I am not talking about making Dahlia cry. I am talking about taking her from your mother, like she was incapable. You made her feel awful Emma." Regina took a look at the chicken in the oven.

"My mother was not mad she just had something to do!" Emma turned from the doorway to look in the study she thought she heard Dahlia make a noise.

"Dahlia is fine Emma; she is a baby not a delicate little flower. No, your mother was not mad she was hurt! I saw it all over her face. You treated her like she was incompetent, like she had no idea what she was doing the whole time she held her!" Regina stirred the pot on the stove never making eye contact with her wife.

Emma made her way into the kitchen sitting slowly at the kitchen table. She propped up her elbows and let her face fall into her hands. Regina turned and was faced with a very distraught Emma. She then realized this had nothing to do with Snow, this all had to do with Emma. She walked behind Emma and wrapped her arms around the blonde's neck as she lowered herself to plant a gentle kiss on Emma's cheek.

"What is going on, honey?" Regina walked to the side of Emma and kneeled down beside her.

"I wasn't there for him ya know. I wasn't there for any of it. I wasn't there to protect him and I know you did a great job of it, but I missed it all. I can't make those mistakes with Dahlia, I need to make sure she is always ok, I need to protect her Regina. Do you get it?" Emma was crying silently.

"Emma!" Regina stood and gently sat on Emma's lap, kissing her forehead.

"You weren't there because you couldn't be, you would have done a great job if you had been given the opportunity. You gave Henry his best shot. Dahlia has you, Emma. Nothing is going to happen to her, no one wants to hurt her. Your mother as much as I hate to admit is very capable of holding our child. You can't over protect her Emma, she is a baby, nothing is going to happen to her. You just have to accept it, and be here! You have to enjoy her, all this worrying doesn't' give you any pleasure, you don't get to enjoy your baby girl." Regina was kissing Emma softly as she spoke.

They sat in silence and all of sudden they heard Dahlia begin to cry softly. Emma looked up at Regina and went to stand. Regina put her finger up motioning for Emma to wait. 5 seconds later the crying was over and Dahlia had gone back to sleep.

"See, you can't go running every time she cries a little, because that is exactly what she wants. She may be a baby but she is pretty smart." Regina kissed Emma.

For the first time since Dahlia had been born Emma took a breath and realized how much she really missed her wife.

"Do you think I can ask my mom to babysit so me and you can have some alone time?" Emma asked kissing her wife again.

Regina pulled back and raised an eyebrow to her wife

"I said she was capable of holding our baby I did not however say she was capable of staying alone with our baby for extended periods of time. Let's not get ahead of ourselves." Regina stated very as a matter of fact.

"You are too much!" Emma laughed

"I suppose I am!"
