Unpleasant Reunion

5 months later

After the talk, the possible fathers were playing their part besides James. David had talk to Regina and agreed that his brother had to stay away from everything, even if he ended up being the father of the babies. He didn't want him to be a part of anything, James agreed without a problem. Not because he wanted to make it up to his brother, no, he just wanted to be wild and free. He was always the irresponsible and rebel child.

During the past 5 months Robin and Tom had been paying close attention to Regina, however, they were very conscious that the one that was going to raised their children and be with her for the rest of her life was David. So they respected his space and were very selective on when to approach Regina or talk about the subject.

Trina was growing more and more close to her clone every day. They share cravings; the doctor had a case of psychological pregnancy during Regina's second trimester. It was heartbreaking, she knew that it was impossible but she let herself dream until she got her period again. Regina was a great support system for Trina. But she had to admit that she was a little jealous of the former judge. However, with every past moment she was accepting and not condemning the fact that she will never have a baby of her own.

"What about this one?" Regina snapped her sister out of her trance. Trina looked at the onesie and shook her head quickly.

"What now?" Regina said bringing the onesie down of her sight level and looking at Trina in frustration.

"You want to teach your infants how to dress up for court at a young age? Come on Regina. They are babies, happy babies." She said rolling her eyes.

The former judge looked at the black and white onesie with a bowtie in the middle of the neckline. She scoffed and hung it back.

"OMG!" Trina yelled suddenly which made Regina jump a little.

"What about this one?" She said holding a leopard bodysuit with a bow as a hair piece accessory.

Regina's eyes couldn't have been more open.

"Don't even think about it! Are you trying to teach my daughter to be a hooker before she can crawl? NO WAY!"

Trina rolled her eyes at her and sighed in frustration.

"We need a common ground here. If not, we will never get the clothes for the babies."

Regina knew that she was right. But it was so difficult to get to an agreement. They share the DNA and they were practically the same person. But at the same time, they were so different.

"Fine"

"It is so unfair that there are so many things for girls but nothing for boys" Trina noted looking at the clothes.

"Good thing we are having two girls and one boy then" Regina smiled touching her swollen abdomen without thinking too much of the gesture. Trina didn't miss the word 'we' on the former judge's sentence, she smiled.

It was hard for her to even walk. But after the miscarriage she didn't want to do anything for the triplets. She thought that doing something for them or even buying them stuff was going to make her too attach and if something were to happened, she wouldn't be as brave to recuperate this time. However, after Whale's speeches, David's help and Trina's advises, she started to do more stuff for the babies and now she was huge but she needed to get them some clothes at least for the first weeks. The doctor had offer herself to buy the clothes but Regina didn't trust her. And after that leopard onesie, she was glad that she paid attention to her intuition.

"Ok, what about this one?"

Regina looked over and laughed at loud shaking her head.

Trina smiled widely while she hold the purple onesie which read the following 'If Mommy says no, auntie will say yes'

"OH look! There are three here. And they are perfect! Pink, purple and white. We need to buy these, please!" she pouted and looked at Regina with puppy eyes.

"Alright fine… but auntie has to pay for those then"

"I sure will"

After half an hour deliberating, Trina and Regina found 6 sets on onesies for each baby, plus other stuff they needed to finish up the nursery.

After a few hours of baby shopping the clones were making their way to eat something before returning home. They were walking but Regina couldn't shake off the feeling that someone was watching. Trina felt it but she was so enthralled in her conversation that she didn't put much thought into it.

Regina looked behind her again, and when she made sure there was no one suspicious she looked at the front but notice that Trina was missing. She didn't have time to look for her since a pair of hands dragged her to the alley, she tried to fight and screamed but before she knew it her body was thrown against the cold concrete wall.

Regina woke up and everything was dark. There was movement so she realized that she was inside a car, she tried to hear something around her so she would know where they were taking her but the pain in her abdomen was stronger and her mind was playing her a very torturous game. Taking her to that night when she thought she lost her baby forever. The former judge tried to move again but the pain kept her from doing so, letting out a small whimper that wasn't ignored by her clone next to her.

"Regina" Trina whispered

Regina let out a sob in relief. She wanted to reply to her but she couldn't. Her heart was breaking in a million pieces, and now they needed to be strong, at least one of them. Trina didn't have to hear her sister to know that something was wrong. So she tried her best to focus on the sounds, left and rights to see if there was something that will help them escape from this fate.

After a few minutes the car stopped. Regina was moved first, she gasped at the sudden grabbed and screamed at the sharp pain she felt in her belly.

Trina's heart dropped but she couldn't speak her mind to ask the formal judge if she was ok, since there was a hand covering her mouth.

"Idiots! What did you do to her? The doctor wants those babies alive. You guys are going to be in so much trouble."

Regina knew that she heard the voice somewhere, but she couldn't remember where. She was so worry and scared.

Half way through the person or people around her realized that she couldn't walk anymore so someone brought her a wheelchair, after a few more minutes which seemed like hours the wheelchair got to a stop. Regina was gasping and breathing shortly. She didn't know where Trina was and her pain was just getting worst.

She could hear a lot of whispering around her, and then she felt someone sitting beside her, she knew immediately it was her clone so she started to calm down a little. However, that didn't last long, her blindfold was off and her sight was adjusting to the light. And then, she saw her, the person that had ruined their lives since they were born Cora Hershey. Trina gasped when she saw the woman.

"Hello girls, long time no see"

Regina tried to hide her fear while Trina couldn't. Then the clone's heart skipped a bit when they saw familiar faces around her.

The former judge saw her assistant; the voice that was so familiar to her moments ago, the little bitch was smiling radiantly at her. She knew that there was something shady about her. Then she looked at those blue piercing eyes that accompany her for a good few years of her life, Daniel. He was studying her; she just wanted to spit on his face actually. Next to him, in the dark, she saw that familiar smile that had been with her most of her life. That smile that made her feel pride but also ashamed sometimes, that one of her mentor, Robert Gold. She felt how her heart dropped to her stomach in a second. All the people she thought were on her side and 'loved' her, were just pawns on a cruel game of chess.

Trina looked around and couldn't believe what she was seeing. Next to Cora was Whale, her partner in crime, her confident and her right hand. He was with a hand on his mouth looking at her and Regina worryingly. She couldn't believe that she was working with the enemy all those years. Her eyes went straight to those who she thought were familiar to her once. Those eyes that provided her internal peace, love, so much pleasure, and once promise a forever friendship, Emma's. The tears in the brunette's eyes started to burned. How could you. She whispered. Emma looked at her with indifference for a few seconds and then to Regina who was in shock. Trina's heart shattered in so many pieces. All this time, her life was a total lie and the people that she thought had her back were ready to stab her from behind.
