Emma was in the middle of a pleasant dream, when she felt herself being woken up by a tapping upon her arm.

Ugh, what the hell? she thinks, as she regains conciousness and slowly opens her eyes to see that Henry is stood beside her and is staring at her, whilst still tapping her arm.

"Hen-ry?" Emma mutters.

"What are you doing in my mom's bed?" he then asks seriously and Emma suddenly remembers that she is in Regina's bed and is only half dressed.

"Um, I..I.." she stutters not knowing what to say but thankfully, Regina has also woken up and answers for her.

"We had a sleepover Henry" she says softly which is not a lie, as Emma did sleep in her bed and she smiles, when Emma turns to look at her.

"But you said, that sleepovers where for kids" Henry then points out, as he remembers when he had once asked his mom as to why she doesn't have sleepovers.

"I know sweetheart but I have made an exception for Emma" she answers softly and continues to smile and Emma can't help but smile also.

"Does that mean that Superwoman is staying for breakfast?" Henry then asks with hopeful eyes and Regina looks to Emma and says "Well, thats up to Emma"

Emma then beams and nods.

"Yeah, I'd like that alot and Henry2 she pauses "please call me Emma when I'm not in my superwoman suit"

"Okay" he then mutters and adds "Can we have breakfast now?"

"Yes sweetheart, just give us five minutes" Regina replies easily and Henry bites his lip, before turning and hurring out of the bedroom.

Leaving Emma to look to Regina and she can't help but think that she is the luckiest woman in the world to have Regina and Henry in her life and she reaches out to pull Regina towards her.

"Wha.." Regina then says in a surprised tone but gets cut off by Emma passionately kissing her and after a long moment, Emma pulls back slightly breathless and mutters "Good morning beautiful"

Regina's heart then skips a beat.

"Morning dear" she then replies back softly and stares into Emma's eyes, getting lost in them.

"That was a good save with Henry" Emma then says and adds "I didn't know what to say, as I don't even know if you want to tell him about us yet"

"That's very considerate of you dear" Regina smiles and brings her hand up to move a few strands of Emma's hair behind her ear. "I think, I will ask him over breakfast about you spending more time with us and how he'd feel if I took you out on a date"

"Your going to take me out on a date?" Emma grins and Regina rolls her eyes playfully. "Do you think he'll be okay with that?" Emma then adds, because if Henry doesn't like it then its going to be awkward.

"He adores you Emma" Regina then tells her seriously. "I am very confident that he will be okay with it because he thinks the world of you"

Emma then feels an excitment bubble up inside her that makes her move forward and pecks Regina on the lips again.

"Thank-you for making everything better" she says, as soon as she pulls back and adds "I wish we didn't have to get up"

Regina hums in agreement.

"I know dear, I could stay here with you all day too but we have a little prince in the house and he wants his breakfast"

On cue Emma's stomach rumbles.

"I guess my stomach wants breakfast too" Emma then says and chuckles.

"Yes, it seems so" Regina replies softly and leans forward giving Emma another long slow kiss, before moving away and pulling the covers back to get up.

Emma then slowly opens her eyes and has a doppy look upon her face. She watches Regina stand up and looks over Regina grey silk pyjamas. Which makes her lick her lips.

"Are you coming?" Regina then says, when she reaches the door and Emma blinks and replies "Yeah, just give me a minute to put my pants on"

"Of course dear, though with your superpowers it wouldn't take you a minute would it?" she winks seductively at Emma and then walks out of the room, leaving Emma gawking and thinking damn, that was hot.


Meanwhile across town.

Mr Gold is sitting at Regina's desk in the mayor's office, looking through her desk draws.

He feels as if, Regina with her magical abilities and superwoman being in the same town is somehow no coindience. So, he rumages through the first draw. Looking to find imformation, something that will give him an advantage but he finds stationary, an apple and papers. None of which interest him, until he comes across a diary and he pulls it out and starts looking through it.

It contains dates of town meetings and appointments, which he makes a mental note of and when he reaches the notes section, he notices that a miss Swan comes up quite often.

I must meet this person, he then thinks to himself before then putting the diary back into the draw and looking in the second draw. Where he finds a photo of Regina and her son and he pulls it out to look at it.

They are in a garden with a big tree and theres snow everywhere. It makes him think of a time in his own realm, where his son would always throw snowballs at him when they had fresh snowfall. It was a happier time away from his usually devilish deals with desperate people and sorcery.

However, his son soon grew up and when the war came, he couldn't allow his son to fight knowing he would die, so he used a magic bean and sent him to another realm for safety.

He had planned to go with him but feared that he would lose his powers so his son crossed over alone but Gold promised to find him.

Days then turned into months as Gold was dragged into the war that raged the kingdom and by the time he did risk going to find his son, he was lead on many wrong paths. Until recently, when he came to this world but years had now past.

Gold then frowns, knowing that he left it too long to reunite with his son. As the boy was now in a Tallahnesse jail for robbery and had rejected him and his help, when he had eventually found him and visited him.

The boy was full of anger towards him, he was a different person to the boy Gold once knew and instead of blaming himself for the way things have turned out, he blames the person who put him in jail. He blames superwoman.

Gold then puts the photo back into the draw and closes it, before standing up and poofing himself back to his pawnshop. Where he muses, that the future... is like a puzzle, with missing pieces - difficult to read, and never, never what you think..
