Rushing in and out of the kitchen to ensure everything was perfect for when the guests arrive, Regina felt a pair of hands grab her shoulders suddenly.
"Regina dear you need to slow down..I am sure Snow has the rest of the food covered and Emma currently has Lily directing her with the decorations..it would appear that our daughter takes after you with perfection. Now let's go upstairs take a breather and change for the party okay?"
Nodding, knowing that her wife is right, the brunette heads upstairs with the blonde but not before scanning the house one last time to make sure everything was ready. Snow did seemed to have it covered while Emma appeared to be laughing at something Lily had done while lifting the girl up to hang a decoration. Glancing into the nursery on the way to see Charlie asleep on his mini bed, Regina smiles as she continues to follow Maleficent to their bedroom.
As the mayor begins to get ready, she pauses at the dressing table seeing her wife through the mirror sat on their bed with a look of conflict. "I thought you said for us to get ready..now you're sitting there, what's going on?"
The dragon woman looks up to meet her eyes briefly then looks away. "Nothing..just tired"
Scoffing, the brunette walks over and sits beside her, taking her hand. "You forget that I have known you a very long time dear, I can tell when you are lying. So..seriously what is it?"
"It can wait honestly..today is about Henry, we can talk tomorrow" the blonde goes to stand but gets pulled back down with a sigh.
"Maleficent if you do not tell me right now, I will kick your dragon ass out of here" ending her sentence with a playful glare to show her wife she isn't being completely serious, Regina then pouts wanting to know what is going on.
"Okay..I..I think I'm pregnant.."
The brunette's eyes widen at the woman's confession then frowns. "I..how..what do you mean you think?"
Biting her lip, the blonde shrugs. "I've..been having signs..but I haven't..confirmed it, or told anyone..I wanted to be sure before I told you and I didn't want to ruin Henry's day..can we just not say anything until we know?"
"Yes..of course.." The mayor slowly smiles and grips her hand again. "If you are it..kind of shows everyone that this is definitely love..I mean if we keep.."
"I figured it out, it's when our feelings are at their most strongest..Charlie was..when we thought I was going to die from the darkness..the cabin and..if I am again it would mean that night..after everything with my father..when we fixed Lily's room and then..we..you helped me forget.."
Finishing off the theory, Regina looks down. "And Lily..was when I told you that I..I needed the curse more..than I..needed you and we said..goodbye"
Resting her head against the brunette's shoulders, Maleficent nods. "Would you be okay with this..if I was? I'm already worried about Lily..I mean she took the news of Charlie hard at first and her magic went..all over the place.."
"I would never not be okay about a baby with you..I love you and our family.." Raising her hand up to stroke the blonde's hair, the mayor kisses her wife's head.
"But we definitely need to look into some sort of block afterwards otherwise..me and you will never be..doing that again."
Laughing, Regina trails her hand down to her wife's chin and lifts her head up to kiss her. "What can I say? We love each other too much?"
"Mommy?!"
Looking towards the door as it opens, the couple smile seeing their daughter. Lily smiles back and plays with her blonde braid that her mama had done for her. "Charlie is awake..and Snow got call to say Henry is coming now"
Regina looks in a sudden panic and stands. "Okay..okay.."
Sniggering, Maleficent also stands and guides her to the door. "Go..I will be down in a second, I will get Charlie"
Giving her an 'are you sure' look, the brunette smiles with a slight nose crinkle when her wife kisses her cheek and shushes her out.

Making her way downstairs with Charlie stomping down each step while holding her hand, Maleficent looks over towards her wife who is currently in conversation with her eldest son and laughing along with his other mother as the teen appears to grow red at something they said. Lily runs over and takes her brother's other hand, pulling it slightly to encourage the boy to let go of their mother's hand. "Come Charlie boy I save you cake!"
Looking excited, Charlie releases his mother's hand and walks carefully as his big sister guides him to the table. Glancing across, Regina smiles seeing her wife then wraps an arm around the small of her back when she joins the group. Leaning over to whisper, the blonde smiles. "Have you and Emma given him his present yet?"
"No we was waiting until everyone was here..including you of course" nudging the blonde sheriff beside her, the mayor nods towards their son.
"Hey Henry..your mother and I got you something kid..close your eyes" Emma grins as the teen does as he is told.
Regina smirks and transports everyone outside then takes his shoulder. "Open your eyes Henry.."
Henry opens his eyes slowly then drops his mouth open. "A car?! You guys got me..a car?!"
"With the understanding that you use it only for school and occasionally when you go out with your friends..none of this late night stuff your still only sixteen"
The teen grins and hugs both his moms at the same time. "This is awesome!"
Lily jumps while still holding Charlie's hand. "We want to sit in it!"
The boy points and claps then looks to his mothers. "Car!"
Maleficent throws her hands up. "Seriously? He's saying everything except mommy?"
Sniggering, the brunette side hugs her while watching her son get into the car and lift his siblings into the back.
