SWAN QUEEN
Emma and Regina spent the next 2 hours fucking and making love, they then decided that it was time to get up and get ready before Henry and Regina's parents got home.
Regina was making bacon and pancakes for herself and Emma when she was interrupted by strong arms circling her waist.
"Hey babe, this smells great." Emma whispered in Regina's ear softly.
Regina chuckled slightly, "It's just bacon and pancakes dear, nothing special."
Emma hummed and said, "I meant you, not the food...although the food does smell great babe."
"Thank you dear."
Emma sat down at the dining table and released her laughter she had been holding.
Regina looked at her and frowned, "What?"
Still laughing, Emma replied, "I can't believe your mother walked in on us this morning!"
Regina hit the blonde with a dish towel, "That is not funny Emma! What if that was Henry and not my mother?!"
Rubbing her now sore forearm Emma said, "Oh please, Henry totally would've knocked Regina."
"Not if there was an emergency!"
The blonde walked over to her girlfriend, grabbed her arms and said, "Regina, if it was Henry at the door instead of Cora, he probably would have thought we were...I dunno wrestling or something!"
"That doesn't change the fact that he might have saw us both naked Emma!"
"Might have Regina! Might have seen us but he didn't!" Emma exclaimed, "But...I guess you're right," she sighed, "maybe we should start putting at least some underwear on before we go to sleep after we...y'know."
The brunette kissed Emma's blushing red cheek, "Thank you Emma. It's about time you learned I am always right."
Emma laughed, "Always huh?"
"Yes."
SWAN QUEEN
Emma and Regina had gone from watching TV while waiting for Cora, Henry Jr and Big Henry getting home to making out while waiting for them.
They were interrupted by the front door slamming shut and hearing Cora yell, "Henry! Don't go upstairs, let me go first!"
Emma laughed while Regina just blushed and walked out of the living room.
"No need mother, we're right here."
"Momma!" Henry ran into his mothers arms.
Regina just barely caught Henry as he came crashing into her arms, "Hi baby!"
"Momma! We went to Granny's for breakfast and, and when I went to the bathroom, I saw Miss Ruby and Aunt Kat kissing!"
Regina looked pointedly at her mother, "You did, did you?"
"Yup! I was gonna say hi but they looked really happy!"
Regina looked towards Emma, "Emma, could you take Henry and go play for a bit please, I think I'm going to give my dear friend Kathryn a visit."
"Sure but uh...you're not gonna do anything stupid right?"
"Of course not, I just want to make sure Kat knows what she's doing."
SWAN QUEEN
When Kathryn answered her front door she didn't really expect it to be Regina at the door, Regina always, always, called before she came over.
"Regina! What uh...what're you doing here? You usually call before coming over."
"Yes well, I came over for a very important reason."
"Is everything alright? Is Henry okay? Are you okay?"
"We're all fine Kat, it's you I'm worried about."
Kathryn raised an eyebrow.
"My son tells me that you were kissing Ruby this morning at the diner."
"Oh god...you'd better come in."
SWAN QUEEN
After taking Regina to the living room and getting them both some ice tea, Kathyrn began to give her friend the answers she was looking for.
"So I suppose you're wondering what happened last night?" the blonde asked hesitantly.
Regina sighed, "Kat I just don't want you to get hurt again. You are my best friend and I know that all of this is your business but...I can't stand to see you get hurt like that again."
"I know Regina but...I know what I'm doing. I'm not going to let myself get hurt again."
"As long as you're sure...So what did happen last night?"
"Well..."
SWAN QUEEN
(A/N this Kathryn and Ruby part was writen by my ducky! Enjoy! Oh I also decided to put this into italics since it is basically a flashback.)
Hearing her tummy grumble Kathryn decide to satiate her hunger and head to the diner for a quick dinner. She quickly change into my favorite baby pink floral skirt, a simple white v-neck, and a pink cardigan with matching flats. Kat grabs my purse and head off walking to the diner. It's been about a week since she's seen Ruby. She don't know if we can keep going back and forth with wanting to be together and just fooling around. Kat knows she loves her, she knows Ruby loves her, but Ruby really hurt Kathryn when we first broke up and then again when she left her the next morning after making love to her the night before. Kat sighs as she sees that I'm just a block away from the diner. Hopefully it'll be granny working the register and not Ruby since Kathryn doesn't feel like having another emotionally draining conversation. I'll just get my dinner to go and head back home to eat and finally get some well deserved sleep. She thought as she finally approached the diner. She took a deep breath, and pulled the door open. Kat walks in and quickly see Ruby with a smile on her face that fades and turns into a hurt look as I dart over to granny to order my dinner to go.
"Good evening granny, how are you? " Kat says with a small smile before she makes her order.
Granny gives Kat a wide grin and replies in a sweet tone "Hello Kitty Kat, I haven't seen you around in a while, I'm fine but how are you dear?" "I've missed having you around and you getting my crazy and bone headed grandpup out of the diner and B&B... You know Ruby hasn't been the same since you two broke things off... I know it's none of my business but she really does love you... So much that she mopes around if she's not working... So she's been over working herself these days..." "But I'm sure you didn't come here to listen to an old wolf talk about her mopey grandpup, what can I get you Kitty Kat, the usual?" Granny finishes with a smile.
"Uhh, yes, please?" Kat asks with a hopeful smile now hearing about how much Ruby actually missed her.
"Okay, and that will be to go?" Granny asked with a raised brow.
"Yes ma'am!" Kat answers just as she hears the bell ring as the door is opened and Billy the mechanic steps into the diner.
Billy sits down in Ruby's section and smirks as he sees Ruby coming towards him to take his order. This is his chance to ask the sexy waitress out and hopefully get lucky. But he hopes that she's a good of a fuck as she looks if her style of clothing is anything to go by.
"Hey sexy, what are you doing after visiting work? Billy said with a leer.
"Not you, that's for damn sure, so please order something and go!" Ruby said with a sneer, she was tired of being harassed by the simpleton, and wasn't going to take it any more.
"Come on baby, I know you want me!" "I'll make you feel better than that pussykat ever could!" Billy said with a smug smirk.
Just as granny brought out Kat's order, Kat heard what Billy said, and even though she was trying not to easedrop Kat heard what the jerk said and stormed up to him. Moving her fist back and then punching Billy's nose, kat was extremely angry, and was glad that she probably broke his nose.
"How dare you speak to Ruby in that manner and even so stupid as to bring me into the conversation!" "You don't know Ruby and you sure as hell don't know me!" "Yes we broke up but that doesn't mean that we're over each other!" "We still love each other and will always mean something to one another!" "So before you speak to a lady, think about what you're going to say, because you just got off lucky you poor excuse for a man!" Kat said as she shook her hand from the slight pain in her hand from punching Billy.
Ruby just stood there in complete shock. She didn't know that Kat felt so strongly for her even though she pretty much fucked up by leaving Kat in bed alone after making love to her the night before.
Billy quickly got up and left the diner without another word. He had learned his lesson and will not be bothering the beautiful waitress ever again and will never bring up Kathrine in conversation.
Turing to granny, kat offered an apologetic smile, and handed over the money over to granny and took her take out as she left the diner.
Ruby finally came to her senses and went after the love of her life. She looked to granny with a pitiful pleading face and was granted to leave early by a swift nod.
"Go get your lady and don't fuck it up this time wolf pup!" Granny yelled as Ruby left the diner.
She sprinted to catch up with the gorgeous blonde. Ruby had to thank Kat for defending her and ask for forgiveness for being such a coward and leaving after their passionate night together.
"Kat!" "Wait, wait up, please?!" "I need to talk to you!" Ruby yelled as she finally caught up with her ex girlfriend.
With a tried sigh Kat stopped walking and waited for Ruby. She was just so tired of this game they were playing and wanted nothing more than to end it. No matter the result of it, kat will finally be rid of the insecurity she was feeling, and walk away with her dignity intact.
"What is it that you want Ruby because I don't have time for empty promises!" "I'm really hungry and tired... I just want to go home and eat and get some rest... Just say what you need to and leave me alone... I'm done with this little game you've been playing!" Kathrine said as she turned back to look at Ruby.
"First off, thank you for defending me back there... It really means a lot..." "And, I'm really sorry for being a coward and leaving you... You, you didn't deserve that... And you don't deserve any excuses either... Just please hear me out one last time and if you still want me to leave you alone then I will..." "Just please... Listen to what I need to say... " Ruby said as she tried to catch her breath.
"Okay, fine, you have ten minutes!" Kat said with a bite.
"Can we walk to the beach and talk at our spot? " "Please, it's not far from here and you can eat your food there..." Ruby asked with her best puppy dog eyes.
"Fine, but talk while we get there, I want to eat my food in peace Ruby." Kat said with a defeated look.
"So I'm sorry... For everything... Not believing you when you were telling the truth about Fred... Making the worst decision of my life and breaking up with you... And then being a coward and running away after our night together... " "I've never been good with words and I know my words mean nothing since I broke your trust and your heart." "But I'd like one last chance to prove myself worthy of your friendship and maybe... If you'd let me, I'd like to prove myself worthy of your love and affection." "I know that actions speak louder than words and I hope that one day you can forgive me for my stupidity and cowardness" "So I'm going to do everything I can to prove to you that I'm done running away, I'm sorry for hurting you, and that hopefully that I'd be good enough for you to love me once again." Ruby finished as they came to a little cove on the beach.
"Ruby... I haven't stopped loving you." "Yes I'm pretty angry and hurt that you lied and used me for sex that night!" "And that you broke up Ruth me and didn't believe me about Fred." "But that doesn't mean that I hate you nor that I'd never forgive for being human and making mistakes." "So I forgive you for breaking up with me and then running away from me... But remember that just because I forgive you, it does NOT mean that there won't be any consequences the next time you decide to do something so hurtful." "I'll give you one last chance, this is your only shot at redeeming yourself in trying to earn back my trust." "You're really going to have to put in an effort and show me that you're worth my time." Kat spoke her mind as she made herself comfortable on a bench her and Ruby built for their little cove that served as their own little personal haven. She began getting her take out from out of the bag and noticed that there was a BLT in the bag for Ruby as well as an extra green tea that they both loved so much. Man, granny was smooth. She already knew that they were going to make up and knew that food was always a way to make them both smile. Kat turned to Ruby and handed her the BLT and green tea. Ruby didn't question it and began eating her food. Kat dug into her own turkey club sandwich and sipped own her green tea from time to time. The silence between them was somewhat awkward but still bearable. After a while Ruby began laughing and after a while Kat too started laughing.
"How did we get to this point?" Ruby said as her laughs turned into sobs.
"I... I guess we let our insecurities get the best of us." Kat softly whispered as she reached for Ruby's hand and entertwained their fingers.
"Kat... I... Don't think we can be friends." "Wait, that came out wrong... What I meant was that I think we can't be just friends, we were never good at being just friends, and I know it's a lot to ask of you." "But I love you so much and I'll spend the rest of my life..." Ruby was caught off by kat's lips upon her own.
Kat kissed Ruby with so much love and an intense longing that Ruby couldn't help but kiss her back.
"Wow, that was... Just wow." Ruby said as she tried to catch her breath.
"Mmm, I agree Rubes..." Kat said breathlessly.
"Sooo, I was hoping that I could take you out on a date, like on a real date." "We can take things slow and maybe see Archie and work out our insecurities as a couple." "You don't have to say yes but it would be nice to give this a try." Ruby said in an uncharacteristicly timid voice.
Kat looked Ruby in the eyes looking for any signs of a lie but only saw sincerity reflected back in those deep blue eyes.
"Okay, yes to the date and taking this slowly." "As well as a yes to seeing Archie and working on our selves as well as our relationship." Kat said with a small smile while holding Ruby's hand and playing with her fingers.
"Okay, so can I walk you home?" "It's late and I want to make sure you get home okay." Ruby said with a half smile as she tried to catch Kat's eyes.
Kat giggled and nodded her consent. "Yeah, I'd really like that, thank you."
Ruby helped Kat clean up their dinner and walked Kat home.
"So I'll see you tomorrow?" Ruby asked as she brushed a stray hair behind the blonde's ear.
"Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow." Kat said as she leaned in to give Ruby a good night kiss.

"And that's what happened last night." Kat said to Regina.
(A/N back to me! Thanks again duckeeeeeeeeeee :3)
Regina just sat there, completely stunned.
"So are you gonna say something Regina or are you just going to sit there?"
"I'm sorry I just...that wasn't at all what I expected." Regina stated.
"What the hell's that supposed to mean?" Kathryn demanded.
"I just mean that...god I'm sorry Kat but I just figured you did what you two always do. Have sex and say you'll get back together only to have Ruby leave you the next morning and you show up at my door or call me crying. I just..." Regina sighed, "I just don't want to see you getting hurt by her again Kathryn."
Kathryn realised that all her friend wanted for her was for her to be happy, so when Ruby leaves her, heartbroken, it actually really effects Regina as well. After all they are best friends. The blonde reached over and grabbed her best friend of many years now hand and said, "Regina, I get that you're worried about me. Hell I was the same when you first started dating Emma, and even more when Dani showed up but...Regina this time, it is completely different to all those other times I swear to you. And even if Ruby does end up hurting me again...well then I'll know that it just wasn't meant to be."
Regina used the hand that wasn't covered by her blonde friend to put it over Kat's, "And this is really what you want? To be with her knowing what's happened between the two of you and what could possibly happen again?"
Kat sighed and said, "Regina...you know this is what I want but I want you to listen to me. When Dani came back, did you give up on Emma?" Kathryn was about to continue when Regina tried to cut in.
"Kat that's complete-"
"Let me finish Regina!" the blonde snapped.
She's never snapped at me like that before...Regina thought before her friend continued.
"You never gave up on Emma. Not when Danielle came back, not when that Lily chick came to town and most importantly, not when your mother came to town. That was the perfect time to dump Emma and be that perfect daughter your mother always wanted. But no, you and Emma fought to be together and you know why? Because you love each other. Yes you and Emma's situation is very different to Ruby and I's but...do you see what I'm saying Regina?"
"You're saying that no matter what you and Ruby will somehow end up together."
"Exactly. Can't you just be happy for me?"
"I am happy for you Kathryn! How could you ever think that I wasn't?!"
"Because you hate Ruby!"
"But I love you!"
They both paused. It had been a long time since Regina and Kathryn said they loved each other. In fact, the last time they said it was probably when they were in high school.
"I love you Kat," Regina talked first, tears starting to form in both the women's eyes,"and it kills me to see you get hurt. You are like a sister to me and you've helped me with so much and when she hurts you like that it breaks my heart Kat."
Kathryn jumped from her seat and embraced, well rather squished, her best friend and sister, "I love you to Regina, but this time, I don't think I'll get hurt. Ruby and I won't let anyone get in the way again. Not Fred, not Billy, not anybody."
Regina just stayed silent, she'd missed her and Kathryn's heart to hearts, they had them regularly when they were in high school and college, it had been a long time since they had one.
