Chapter 26
"Emma please calm down," Roman the physical trainer said.
Emma was going ballistic, she was flipping over chairs, kicking tables over, basically destroying the back room. Coach Brian walked in with a worried face along with Sarah.
"Baby please relax," she tried.
"I can't believe this shit!" Emma yelled.
"Swan, sit down and let us look at your shoulder," Brian instructed.
Her shoulder hurt like hell, thank god it was her left one because it was her right one she would've be able to do anything. She sighed and sat down, "It hurts," she mumbled.
Roman looked at the swelling and the bruises, "We need to get her to the hospital," he sighed.
Emma chuckled when she heard a faint voice yelling to the security, "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN I CAN'T GO BACK THERE!?" Regina yelled.
"Somebody go get Gina, before she kills someone," Emma demanded.

"Well, her rotator cuff is torn," Dr. Whale said, "The muscles have detached from the bone."
Emma groaned, "FUCK!"
"Baby, just relax. So what does that mean?" Regina asked.
"How long is she going to be out for?" Coach Brian asked.
"Well after surgery, it's going to take 4 to 6 weeks for it to heal, then it'll take another 4 to 6 for her to gain muscle strength. I don't think she'll be able to play back to her old self honestly for about 8 to 12 months," he said with a sorry expression.
"A year? We start practice in two months," Brian said.
"I seriously can't believe this," Emma said.
"So that's it? She's out for a season?" Regina asked, "You're telling me she's suppose to sit on her ass for 4 months and then try to get back in the gym?!"
"Well, she can do minimum exercise to get muscle strength but her arm will be in a sling for about 3 months yes," Whale said.
Emma's eyes began to water, "I might as well forget basketball."
"I wouldn't say that, in about a year you'll be back-"
"No! I'll never be the same. What team is going to want me?! Realistically I had a one year contract with the Sparks, the year is up, they aren't going to renew it!" Emma yelled.
"Emma, you know I love you but it's not up to me," Brian stated, "We will have to take all of this into consideration."
Emma frowned and nodded in understanding.

"So how is she doing?" Ariel asked. Regina had invited her, Belle, and Aurora over for a chill ladies day at her house.
"Well she had surgery last week so she's still very sore. Correction: She's in a lot of pain," Regina sighed, "I can't do much to help, they say I can't massage it yet."
"You will be able to soon, hopefully. How long will she be out?" Belle asked.
Regina frowned, "Nearly a year, she hates it. She…cried."
They all gasped, "No, I can't imagine Emma crying," Aurora mentioned.
"Well I've seen her cry before...when Neal died. But this time, she was really balling, it hurts her heart. Hell, it hurts mine, I feel so bad," Regina said.
"Aww R, maybe you should do something nice for her," Aurora suggested.
"Maybe you should fuck her," Ariel said, they all glared at her, "What? Guys come on, I've always been blunt, don't look surprised. I'm serious though, I know she can't do much right now but riding is still a very satisfying position."
Regina blushed, "I'll think about it."
"Why are you blushing? Why is sex so impossible for you to talk about?" Ariel asked.
"Yeah Gina, she has a point, we never have sex talk," Belle said.
"There's nothing to talk about…" Regina said.
"Geez, that's harsh, I thought she was beating it up," Ariel teased.
"She is, it's just-"
"Oh so she is putting in work? Well that's good to know," Aurora smirked.
Regina groaned, "Ugh I hate you guys. I mean how else would I end up pregnant?"
Ariel laughed, "Ok, you have a point. Speaking of that, when are you going to tell her?"
Regina looked down, "I don't know...it's hard. Now isn't a good time."
"She hasn't noticed anything?" Belle asked.
"Nope," Regina chuckled, "My baby is talented and smart but when it comes to being observant, she's not the sharpest tool in the shed. But she's mine and I wouldn't trade her for anything."
"Awwww, that's so sweet," Belle smiled.
Regina blushed, "She just makes me happy so I want to make her happy. She's so upset about her career, I feel like a baby would just make things worse for some reason. I have a gut feeling."
They turned their heads to the stairs when they heard footsteps on the soft carpet. Emma came down with sleep all over her face, it was almost 11am. She wore black basketball shorts, black ankle socks, gray Nike t-shirt and her sling of course. Regina loved when Emma looked like she was prepared to stay in the house all day, mainly because that most likely meant she was, which meant that Regina could lay up under her all day.
"Good morning baby," Regina smiled.
Emma yawned, "Morning," before shuffling to the kitchen.
"Your food is in the oven," Regina mentioned.
"You two are beyond cute, I wish Graham wasn't an asshole," Ariel rolled her eyes.
"Emma's an asshole too, don't let her fool you. What makes you say that about Graham?" Regina asked.
"Some bitch texted his phone saying that she had just watched one of his movies and it made…" She sighed, "it made her pussy throb."
"Excuse me what? She actually said that? What did he say?" Aurora asked.
"He just sent her the smirking emoji and it pissed me off because why the fuck does he think it's ok to entertain females that aren't me?!" Ariel exclaimed.
"Understandable, Ruby almost near fought me because I asked to see her phone," Belle sighed.
"Wait, you guys actually do that? I have yet to look through Emma's," Regina admitted.
"You must really trust her," Ariel teased.
"Well yeah, I think," Regina raised her eyebrow, "Babe?!"
"Huh?" Emma asked from the kitchen.
"May I see your phone?" Regina asked causing her friends to raise their own brows.
"Uh...sure, why not…" Emma trailed.
"What if something's in there?" Belle asked quietly.
"Oh god, I don't know," Regina sighed.
Emma was about to go up the stairs when the doorbell rang. Oh thank god, she thought. She ran to the door, "Graham!"
"What's up?" He asked.
Emma whispered something in his ear, he chuckled and nodded in understanding. He walked over to Ariel, "You still mad at me?"
"I don't understand why you're talking to me, go away," Ariel said.
He sighed and kissed her temple, "I'm sorry."
"Get away from me Graham," she scoffed.
He frowned, "Okay fine...I'll just leave you alone then."
Emma saw the hurt in his eyes, Graham must've really loved her, "Come on buddy, let's talk."
"The phone Swan," Regina reminded.
Emma gave a fake smile, "Oh yeah, I almost forgot, it's upstairs, hold on." She jogged upstairs while Graham along with her.
"Dude, she wants to see your phone? What are you going to do?" He asked.
"I have no choice but to give it to her, if I don't, she'll think I'm hiding something," Emma sighed.
"Well are you?" He asked.
"Well...no. It's just that a lot of my ex hoes have sent me get well text and I would delete them but she'll get suspicious if I haven't texted anyone in three day, that's unrealistic," Emma sighed. She began to walk out of her and Regina's room, "Pray for me."
Regina held out her hand when saw Emma walking towards her with her phone, "Thank you ma'am," she said as she grabbed the phone. Emma stood over her shoulder, Regina furrowed her brows, "You can go now Swan."
"But-"
"I'll call you when I'm done," Regina said.
Emma walked down the stairs fully dressed with Graham following, "I need my phone back now, it's been like an hour."
Regina didn't say anything she just handed the iPhone 6s over. Graham looked at Ariel, she was looking down at her phone, "Yo red?"
She slowly looked up, "Yes?"
"I love you alright? You are my number one priority. I realized what I did wrong and I'm sorry, I'm going out with Emma, when we get back, you better be smiling and happy to see me. Give me a break Ariel," he sighed.
"I better?" She looked at Emma, "You made him say all of this?"
"Well no, not really. I just coached him, he doesn't know how to express his feelings that well and I do…" She said.
"Hmm," Ariel bit her lip as she thought, "Ok Graham, I forgive you but I still don't want to talk to you right now."
"I understand," he sighed before leaving out of the front door.
Emma groaned, "Why do you do that to him? He's like putty when it comes to you, just be nice."
"The longer I stay upset, the better our make up sex will be," she shrugged.
"You are twisted," Emma chuckled, she kissed Regina's head, "I'll be back ok?"
"I suppose," the brunette sighed.
"What's wrong? What did I do?" Emma asked.
"Nothing Swan, I'll see you later," Regina said.
"Uh ok but you know that my mom said she was coming over," Emma shrugged before leaving out.
Regina groaned, "Great, now I have to face Sarah. Emma thinks it's ok to invite her mother over like we are already married."
"I get what you mean, you still have to impress her no matter how well you and Emma are doing," Belle said.
"Exactly, I could mess up at anytime and she could tell Emma that she doesn't like me and Emma will end us in a blink of an eye," Regina sighed.
"I think you're over thinking, just be smooth. Don't act nervous, just be calm. Jesus Regina, you're an actress, act like everything's okay," Ariel instructed.
"I have to throw up," Regina said before rushed upstairs. As if on cue the doorbell rang.
Ariel sighed and looked at Belle, "Go get the door, you're her best friend."
"Ugh why me?" She sighed before walking over to the door and opening it, "Ms. Swan, hi."
"Belle, hello. Where is Regina?" She asked as she stepped in.
"Upstairs, she isn't-"
"I need to talk to her," Sarah interrupted before going upstairs.
"Oh fuck," Ariel groaned.

"What's the verdict?" Emma asked as she and Graham walked into Mary-Margaret's office.
"Good afternoon to you too, well I have some news but I don't know how you're going to take it," she sighed.
"Just tell me MM," Emma sighed as she sat down.
"Well for starters, the Sparks won't renew your contract until they see that you are completely better. Everyone just wants to see how you play once you're healed," she said.
"But I won't be able to play next season right? That's bullshit, players come back in once they are cleared all the time, why should I have to sit out a whole season?" Emma asked.
"Em, you are a phenomenal player, nobody wants you to get hurt again. I think it'll be good for you," she stated.
"Sitting on my ass?" Emma asked.
"Well no; The Sparks have arranged an...agreement with Spain," MM stated.
Emma's eyes filled with rage, "Oh no no no, I already know where this is going. I'm not playing overseas, I have a 8 year old to look after."
"Emma it's the only way that you stay paid and the Sparks can track your improvement. Coach Brian really had to pull some strings," she sighed.
"This is bullshit," Emma groaned.
"Emma look I don't think it's that bad, you get to play basketball and make money. I know you don't want to be away from us but it's for the best. You want to be able to play for Henry to go to college, I don't think it's best that you be unemployed for a year," Graham said.
"You're right, I have to think about the kid," Emma said, "Fine. I'll play for Spain but Regina won't like this one bit and I'll make sure that she curses you and Brian out."
"That's fine with me, just as long as you are playing. It'll be way better, you can really get a full work out," MM smiled.
Emma hung her head, "I'm screwed. How long is there season? When do I leave?"
"Well you'd be leaving on November 1st after you get cleared from the doctor. They start practice in January so that'll give you a full two months to train and strengthen your shoulder. You won't be returning until Christmas of next year," Mary-Margaret said.
"So I'll miss my first Christmas with them? Just fucking great, and I'll miss Henry's birthday," Emma sighed, "I have to do what I have to do."

"Regina?" Sarah called, she saw the bathroom light on and heard a faint gagging. She took a chance and opened the door, "Oh sweetie are you ok?"
The brunette was on her knees, hunched over on throwing up in the toilet. Sarah stood behind her, held her hair, and rubbed her back.
When she was done, Regina stood up, grabbed a towel, and wiped her mouth, "Thank you."
"It's not a problem dear, you don't look so well. So when are you going to tell Emma that you're pregnant?" Sarah asked.
To Be Continued...
Oh shit Sarah knows?! O.o What do you guys think will happen next? How will Regina react to Emma leaving?
