Passion

Regina walked through the hallway of the maximum security prison and nodded to the guard. She peered into the small window to see Zelena sitting on the bed reading a book. When Zelena noticed her she stood up and put down the book. She had a look of expectation on her face, but Regina had no intentions of going in. Instead she walked over to the guard.

"How has she been acting?"

The guard shook his head. "Fine. Not a peep out of her except to ask for another book."

Regina scowled. "Has anyone been in to see her?"

The guard hesitated before finally saying, "Just the baby's father. Robin Hood."

Regina swallowed hard. "How often?"

"Every day."

Regina shook her head and sighed out. "How long does he stay?"

The guard shrugged. "Couple of hours."

Regina cocked her head to the side. "What are they doing in there?!"

The guard shrugged again.

"What, you don't monitor the visits?!"

"Didn't know I was supposed to."

Regina stepped into his face, eyes flashing. "This is a maximum security prison you idiot! No one should be alone with a prisoner!"

The guard looked terrified that he was about to be fried to a crisp.

Regina growled and took off down the hallway. "From now on no one goes in there without being monitored," she tossed over her shoulder. She was tempted to not let Robin in at all, but she knew they still needed to get to the bottom of things.

Emma was helping Mary Margaret fix lunch when she heard her phone ringing. She dried her hands and picked it up. She grinned when she saw it was Regina. "Hey, you."

Regina was so upset she didn't even offer a greeting. "I just found out Robin has been seeing Zelena everyday. For hours."

Emma scrunched up her eyebrows. "What?! How?"

Regina talked as she walked through the parking lot of the prison toward her car. "I just came and interrogated the idiot guard. Robin would stay for hours unmonitored by the guards."

Emma put her hand on her forehead in frustration. "Oh my God. What the hell."

Regina got into her Mercedes and slammed the door shut. "I don't know what they're up to but we need to figure it out quick. If she gets out of that prison...I just don't even want to think about what she'll do."

Emma paced the apartment. "Don't worry Regina, I'm not going to let that happen. There's no way in hell she's getting out of that box, after all the things she has done, not to mention the fact that she's a direct threat to the woman I love." Emma straightened her posture in shock. Should she try and back track? Why should she. Instead she just went with it. "Regina, I love you," she said in amazement.

When Emma didn't get a response she started to panic. "Regina?" She looked at the phone to see the line had been disconnected. Regina had hung up.

Emma looked panicked over to Mary Margaret who had frozen in place with a spoon in her mouth at Emma's admission. She was wide eyed. She pulled the spoon out when she saw Emma's face. "What did she say?"

Emma looked back at her phone. "She hung up. Oh my God," Emma said quickly as she started frantically pacing about. "Oh my God. Oh my God, what did I just do?! I scared her off. I scared her off. I should have known better than that. She's probably still trying to figure all this out and then I go and push her like that. Why did I say that?!"

Mary Margaret let her ramble for a moment before grabbing on to her and forcing her to the couch. "Emma, listen it's okay. Maybe you just got disconnected."

"We did get disconnected. Regina disconnected us!"

Mary Margaret tried to comfort her with encouraging words and calming touches. Emma got up and started pacing again, pulling at her hair and hiding her face in her hands. It went on like this for about five minutes when suddenly there was a knock at the door.

Emma and Mary Margaret just looked at each other for a minute before Emma walked slowly to the door and creaked it open. Emma's heart leapt in her throat to see Regina standing there. Her eyes were black. "Regina!" Emma whispered.

Regina looked from Emma to Mary Margaret, chest heaving. She looked back at Emma and grabbed her wrist, pulling her into the hallway.

Emma pulled the door shut as she came through it, only to be pushed up against it. Regina's mouth was on hers in a flash, hands groping at Emma's sides.

Suddenly realizing what was happening, Emma whimpered and kissed back hungrily. The kiss was immediately passionate, Regina leading the way by teasing Emma's tongue with her own. Emma gripped possessively at Regina's back, hands sliding all over. Regina moaned as their feverish kiss went on, Emma pushing Regina across the hallway and against the wall. They fought for control of the other's mouth hungrily, gasps and moans escaping passionate lips. Emma felt her entire body erupt in arousal, only to feel naked when Regina pulled back. The look in Regina's eyes almost had her undone. The desire in both women's eyes was flaring the other's need. Emma gripped into Regina's shoulders, both clearly out of breath. Emma looked at her a moment longer before breathlessly whispering, "I'll just get my coat, then."

Regina stared after her as Emma disappeared into the apartment.

Emma quickly grabbed her coat and phone before meeting Mary Margaret's curious stare.

Emma swallowed, not knowing her hair was a tangled mess. "I..I gotta go."

Mary Margaret just stared after the woman before breaking out into a fit of laughter.
