Thank you for reading. I know i don't write well compare to others but I did enjoy writing both of them. I hope you enjoyed reading and thank you. :)
It was afternoon following week that Emma has been missing. Emma went back to bottom of the vault pissed off by the last vision of the future yelling, "John! You son of the bitch! I need you come down here now!"
"John! I know you can hear me! Get your butt down here!" Emma yelling unintelligently.
Emma knows she doesn't need to talk to John since the answer is right front of her. She sat front of swans statues for long awhile deep in thought wondering if she really could fall in love with Regina. She walked out of the vault walking back to mansion, but Hook who has been drinking stood by the tree waiting, "My love. Remember your husband?"
Emma pointed, "Are you drunk?"
Hook shrugged, "I can hold my drink, but that is not important. I want to know how you and Regina …"
Emma curses herself, "Who told you?"
Hook snarls, "You're not going back to her. I've been a good husband to you and we have 2 children together, Swan."
Emma sighs rubbing her forehead remembering that Regina never made her choose between two people; however, life with Hook feels like there aren't any challenges or to bicker with. On the other hand, Regina never likes Hook and always thought she can do better than Hook.
"Go home, Hook. I'll talk to you later."
Emma doesn't have time for his ego so she waves him away then walked pass him. Hook unaccepted her answer, so he hit her on the head with his hook, "You're my wife. You're going with me." Hook threw his drinking glass to pick her up to take her to his ship that was new and built by his crew since his Jolly Ranger were taken and destroyed many years before.
Regina sat in her office at the mansion instead of going to work because of Amari. She was afraid to leave her with babysitter since she doesn't know how much magic she can do since the stories Regma told when she was the same age. She had her secretary redirect the calls to her home office and drop off some documents since Mal and many others has been remodeling their castle for many years to make inside of the castle more modern by adding electric lights, toilets and list goes on with help of Regina year by year. Amari is taking a nap with baby monitors while she sat taking break from complaints of Storybrooke and united Realms. She opened her top drawer with her marriage license and the ring she haven't wore for a week. She really doesn't want to wear the ring but Emma Swan told her to wear it. She wonders why and what so special about the ring. There were few times she has asked Regma, but she gave the same vague answer, "It'll come to you." Regina rolled her eyes at Regma's answer while deep in thought staring at her rings and Emma's. She has requested Henry to look at Emma's record in Boston to see who she married because she doesn't really believe the license is real. Henry confirmed they were after few hours of making calls through Storybrooke Newspaper. She has called the hospital to process birth certificate for Amari, so she named Nadira Amari Swan-Mills after when it went through, she called Town Hall for them to mail it. Regma has texted her adopted mother to mail all of her information because she didn't bring with her when she moved to Maine. After long discussion, the best thing Regina thought they could do is memory wipe for Regma's adoption family since it is too complicated, so they mixed fairy dust and other substances that will clean out Regma's things as well. Regma knows they will all gather together during dinner, so Regina had it set the time for it to blow itself around the house. Regma is not happy about that solution, but what is she going to do; explain about magical babies, fairy tales and so on. Regina hired few hands to stop by at Regma's loft by the beach to sell everything except only bring important items as well as papers. Regina promised Regma that when after graduates, whether it is here or out there she will help either create or buy a house of her choice. Regina doesn't want her to pay any rent since she doesn't have job anymore and will not be working on Monday. Dr. Darling has agreed to her terms about her working part time when she's in high school. The money that is sold from loft is in Regma's bank account, but Regma isn't allowed to use it since Regina took all of her cards in case of teen's shopping spree. They haven't had a chance to decorate her room because Regma wanted to wait until after they got the parents' memory back; however they did decorate Amari's room with mixed with pink and black in third guest bedroom around the hall. Regma told her that second bedroom that was next to hers was Hope's, so Regina left it blank in case if Hope wants to sleep here. Regina doesn't like the third guest bedroom because it felt like something happened in that room, but she doesn't want to put her another room that is far from Regma and herself. She wanted Amari to be close by. Amari choose pink, but Regina doesn't want painted pink in the house, so she allows it to be mixed of two colors with different patterns. Regina hopes she will outgrows the loud colors.
After couple hours of deep in thought and working, Regina finally gave in and slip those two rings on her left hand and left Emma's ring in the drawer. Regina felt surreal to have rings on her fingers. She heavily sighs and mentally note herself that it is alright. Regina was glad that Amari had a good nap, so she went ahead to wake her up because if she sleeps too long then she wouldn't sleep well at night.
Hook had Emma on the bed tied up so she doesn't run away with black leather bracelet to stop her from doing magic.
When Emma groggy finally woke up finds herself tied up with rope as she tries to free herself away then wonders why she can't do magic. She noticed the black leather bracelet, "Where did you get that?"
Hook stood at the far end in the shade, "The fairies, where else?"
Emma asked, "Why are you doing this?"
Hook still not moving from where he is, "You're not leaving me. If I can't have you then no one will."
Emma was shocked because she didn't think that he would do it, then looked up at the bedpost to try pull the rope to free herself but it was too tight. Emma hasn't planned to officially leave Hook since she needed talk to Regina first, but she has never thought he would go this far. "What are you planning to do with me, tied me up for rest of our life?"
Hook crackled, "Of course not, you're going to do something for me."
Emma eyes crossed puzzled still fighting to free herself.
Hook showed her the large diamond, but it was colored red, "this goes down in the cave, you are going to change the time that you only remember life with me that you have never have been with Regina and two daft."
Emma refuses, "Over my dead body. I am not messing with time and laws of magic. It has severe consequences, Hook."
Hook smiles, "You don't have a choice."
Emma still saying no, "What is that supposed to mean?" Emma tries to remember where the weapons are, but it is in other meeting room, so she curses herself. Emma forcedly calms herself down to close her eyes and thought of Regina; hoping what John shows her is true.
Hook doesn't like how Emma is calming herself with her eyes closed, so Hook walked over the bed and slapped her out of trance, "What the hell are you doing?"
Emma backed her head a little, "Testing a theory."
Hook sighs, "Let's go."
Emma was thankful that he was letting her go than she'll have opportunity to throw him off, but Hook looked into her eyes, "No funny business, Emma."
Emma rolled her eyes as Hook removed the rope of bedposts but her hands still binds. Emma doesn't understand why Hook feels like he owns her like she's a trophy wife, "Is this how you see me?"
Hook answered, "I can't lose you Emma. You cannot have both of us. It will never work, so it either me or her."
Emma was sadden of the ultimatum, "Are you serious, Hook? We fought hard for our love, Hook, so you're important to me. Regina is different; I mean, you chased me because I rejected your advances at first, so you became interested in me. In the beginning, Regina and I had Push-Pull friendship that we turn to each other between chasing and running when our passion ignites and the world seems to stand still for both of us. Between you and Regina is different, I am sorry. What I feel for her is I can't explain, but it is different with you. I got scared of our future so I ran because I don't know what role am I supposed to be with you, but with Regina, I'm allowed to be just me no matter what is going on."
Hook in serious tone, "So that's your answer?"
Emma became depressed, "I can't believe you did this."
Hook taken back by that statement, "I did for us, Emma."
Emma angrily pointing at him, "No you didn't. You did it for yourself, your alter ego." Emma showed the arm of black bracelet, "Take it off, Hook!"
Hook showed her the large reddish diamond, "Let's do this. We can save our future. A place that you and Regina are just best friends and we are still happily married. All we need to do is go back in time to prevent the time change." Hook took of the rope to show that he still on her side.
Emma took the diamond out of his hands while he took off the black leather bracelet, "You really think this is the solution?"
Hook nodded happily while they walked off the boat towards the cave underground where Regina had her failsafe.
After school, Regina picked Regma up from school as her ring started to feel funny like it was going electricity on her fingers. She doesn't know what is going on or what that means.
Regma sat in the back besides Amari while watching Regina driving, "You have a face."
Regina smiles looking at the mirror, "What face is that?"
Regma pointed at her face, "You were thinking about Ma."
Regina noted but redirected a different conversation, "How was school?"
Regma rolled her eyes, "Come on, mom. You can talk to me."
Regina smiles, "Why don't you tell me about school?"
Regma shrugged, "School is stupid. Boys are even dumber."
Regina laughs, "Boys have their ways, that's for sure."
Regma tries again, "So what is about Ma?"
Regina smiles kissing on her forehead in the living room when they arrived home, "Go do your homework and don't worry so much about me. That's my job." Regina than told Amari to go play if she wants to.
Regma nodded grabbed her backpack to do her homework on the kitchen island while Regina started cooking dinner, the famous lasagna. Regina wanted to check on Amari, "Amari?"
When there wasn't any answer, she started to be concern, "Nadira Amari Swan-Mills!"
"What mama?" Amari stood beaming between the thresholds of the door to the backyard looking muddy.
Regina smiles, "What have you done to yourself?"
Amari beaming pointing behind her, "mudslide."
Regina with arms on waist, "Did I tell you that you're allowed to go the backyard?"
Amari looked down, "no…"
Regina smiles anyway, "What did I tell you?"
Amari looked up unsure, "but no toys in my room…"
Regina magically put back the grass and the water off then watered on Amari to rid of all of the mud. Regina picked Amari up to give her bath upstairs, "Alright Amari, looks like we will be toys shopping for you."
Amari lit up, "lots of toys and blankie?"
Regina nodded, "I suppose so." Regina remembers that she needs bed cover, sheets and curtains for her room as well as Regma does too.
Amari cheered but wishes she could talk normally while watches mom fill up the tub, "I'm happy you're my momma" hugging her tightly.
Regina hugs back kissed her cheek smiles warmly, "I'm glad you're my little troublemaker."
Amari laughs kissed her on cheek back, "I love you momma."
Regina told her to get in the tub and start bathing herself, but Amari wanted her to bathe her instead. While she was bathing her, Regma showed up, "mom, there's someone on the phone in your office. It won't stop ringing."
Regina nodded thought it was Mother Superior again drying herself with towel, "Alright, stay with Amari and make sure she's dressed to go to the store."
Regina went back downstairs to her office to take the call and it turns out it was Mother Superior again troubled about the stolen rare diamond that can be used as a magical properties. Regina tries to reassure her, but her worries got the best of her.
Hope abruptly walked in, "Aunt Regina!"
Regina looked up shunned, "What is it Hope?"
Hope in fretted tone, "I can't find dad anymore even I looked into that god-awful Rabbit Hole. He's not anywhere in Storybrooke."
Regina thought maybe Hook was the one who broke in, "Hope why don't you stay with Regma and Amari while I take care of some business. I might have some idea where Hook is."
Hope sat on the couch in the office and nodded.
Regina sees that Hope can't think straight, so she asked Regma to call Henry just in case. Regina's ring has been bothering her all day since the moment she put it on. When that call came, she knew something serious going on and she hopes she is not too late whatever going to happen. Regina left while Regma called Henry then had both of them to stay with Hope in same room until he arrives.
"How did you get this, Hook?" Emma asked again.
Hook getting tired of her questions, "I told you, the fairies and Mother Superior gave me this."
Emma knows he is lying but wonders why he is, "What exactly this supposed to do?"
Hook explained again, "No one will be harmed, Emma. It just rewrites history to the original time before ..."
Emma nodded, "Before Regina, Regma and Amari?"
Hook threw his arms up, "Ever since you found out, our marriage has been became worse than before. We are doing this to save our marriage and family."
Emma asked with eyes crossed, "In expense of my children?"
Hook taunt her, "they are not your children, Emma. You never raised them or even have the memories. They are Regina's bastards."
Emma doesn't like how he talks that way towards her, "Hey!"
Hook tries again calming himself, "I'm your husband, Emma. We have been married for about 20 years, are you willingly to throw that away for Regina? So as your husband, I am asking you to do this for me."
Emma nodded because she knows that Hook has done a lot for her even before they were married, but didn't say anything deep in thought about Regina and their stories when John showed her. The diamond is held before her sit on a short wooden pole. Emma is not sure because of one important part is the future; she wonders if doing this will harm Regina's future and the reason she's torturing herself. The moment that Emma has to make an ultimate choice while both of her hands over the diamond. She explored her feelings for Regina while looking into Hook eyes who is smiling, but his smile doesn't match his eyes then back to the diamond sighing hard.
Regina's rings started to give little pain this time like it was squeezing while it was glowing. When Regina tries her shake the hands while looking into her vault to see any sign then noticed something is different. It's mixed white and black while glowing bizarrely than felt something different like she could feel Emma all of the sudden. She decided to try follow the feeling she has by thinking about Emma then teleported few feet behind Hook while Emma is over the diamond.
"What's going on?" Regina carefully asked.
Emma shook up, "Regina!"
Hook drew his gun to point at Regina, "Go on, Emma!"
Regina telekinesis threw the gun out of his hands, "Don't point at me!"
Emma asked, "How did you know we were here?"
Regina showed her the ring, "I felt you."
Emma smiles, "you wore the ring?"
Hook looked towards Emma while ignoring Regina. Emma looked back then nodded.
Regina walked carefully without with her hands on her back, "What do you hope will happen after the time change?"
Hook eyes wide, "You know what this is?"
Regina stupidly looked at him rolling her eyes, then redirected to Emma, "Emma, do you want to do this?"
Emma looked at the diamond then at Hook, "I …" lost for words.
Regina stood beside Emma looking deep in her eyes smiling ignoring Hook, "I'll do this with you if this is important to you."
Emma was surprised then Hook had his mouth opened doesn't know how to top that, "You would do that for me?"
Regina nodded with both of her hands close to Emma's still smiling, "I'll do anything for you. Let's do this."
Emma hates it when she does reverse psychology as she looked down at the diamond and towards Hook who is waiting for it to start then back at the diamond again. She remembered one memory that John showed her where Regma had nightmare knocking at her parent's loft upstairs. They have their own house, but they still own the loft since no one lease it, so they go back and forth. She remembered few times she always says that she'll be back then looked up to Regina who is also waiting for her to start.
She curses herself as she closes her eyes then looked at her while putting her hands down then Hook angrily, "We are almost there! We can do this!"
Emma sadly sighs, "I can't do this. No matter what realm or how many time changes; at the end …" Emma redirected to Regina who was impressed but astonished as she took her arms close on her chest, "Regina, you were never an option and I am sorry the way I treated you since that day in the vault. You are worth every bit of my soul. I love you and I promise I am never leaving you."
Regina doesn't know what to say as Emma kissed her intensely, but softly and she kissed back smiles as she drew her closer to her. Their head started to grow pain like it's going to explode as they cringed while touching their heads. The moment it stopped hurting, Regina's eyes lit up beaming touching her face, "Charmine?"
Emma with tears in her eyes, "Yeah, it's me babe. We found each other again."
Regina rolled her eyes and laughs kissed her as if there were no tomorrow, then Emma apologized again. Regina simply smiled to have her Charmine back, "I'm never letting you go again" kissed her passionately, and "I love you."
Emma kissed her back and eyed Hook who is pissed off then Regina suggested pointing at Hook, "Can I just dump him in the ocean?"
Emma lightly slapped her laughing, "I'll talk to him."
Regina stopped grabbed her arms refusing to let her go, "I'm not letting you alone with him."
Emma misses this part of her, so she nodded than redirected to Hook, "Hook, Emma does loves you, but there was always part of me that loves Regina more. I was never truly happy with you. It won't be fair to you if we stayed married, but we do both have two beautiful children out of it. I hope you won't hold it against me."
Hook listened seriously and about to open his mouth but Regina spoke up, "Emma, let's go home and let him be. When he's ready, he can come to the mansion to talk to you." Hook walked away without a word to give himself time to think. Emma pulled Regina in wrapping around her kissed her on the lips, exploring their mouths as they slipped their tongues while Regina caressing her hair as she pulled her closer more aggressively.
Emma smiles, "you and me in bed now."
Regina laughs, "Is that all is on your mind?" Regina conjured her ring than showed, "Want your ring back?"
Emma took the ring, but Regina grabs it back then held her left hand to slid in her fingers, "Emma Swan, want to spend the rest of our lives with me?"
Emma sweetly smiles, "Thousand times over, yes." She kissed her passionately and deeply this time that everything around them is frozen.
Regina remembers Regma and her pregnancy, "What happened at the end?"
Emma shrugged, "He tried to kill me while trying to revert back to original timeline."
Regina making sure touching her body but Emma stopped her smiling, "No wounds, babe. I'm fine."
Regina curiously asked, "What happened the whole week you were missing?"
Emma rolled her eyes, "A lot. John showed me different visions of us, but I didn't know about two or three of them; one is when you sort of cursed me when Evil Snow was pregnant with me, but John told me that you never did. We were connected that if anything happens to you, I will know death. I know now what you meant, but I didn't know before."
Regina nodded, "I remember that day. It was after about 10 assassins and reward posters if they bought me to Evil Queen. I got so tired and sick of it then decided to sneak in to kill her."
Emma smiles, "I am sorry you went through twice. I had no idea."
Regina shrugged, "Price I have to pay, so don't worry about it. And other one?"
Emma sighs, "Well …"
Regina leaned her closer wrapping around her, "You can tell me."
Emma cleared her throat, "I don't know what that night was or what happened, but I was inside upstairs the loft with Hook watching Neal. I heard the knocking but I was busy, so I never knew who it was. It turns out it was Regma and you. Regma was crying hard and you tried to explain what True Love is. I think that vision is what hit me the most."
Regina tries to remember which night that was, "What happened afterwards?"
Emma looked at her seriously angrily but at herself, "Was it more than one night?!"
Regina heave a sigh, "A few. Only when she has nightmares then she would crawl out of the window running towards you. She went to loft three times and other times at your house."
Emma was shocked and felt ashamed of herself, "That night I saw the vision is when you talked to my parents afterwards then you had that sad look in your eyes. I never forget that look you had."
Regina nodded, "Oh, I remember that night. It was a bad day for her. She had a fight with someone in school and one of the kid was teasing her about you actually. Everyone thought she was crazy when she told one of the kid that you were her other parent. After that night is when she promises that she will never speak about you again to anyone."
Emma hugged her tightly and kissed her passionately, "I am so sorry. I should have been there for you both. I am glad that our kids turns out to be alright."
Regina sighs happily then started to have tears in her eyes, "I am glad they were safe from Storybrooke and its curses. I would be depressed if …"
Emma stopped her, "That never going to happen. Not on my watch."
Regina laughs sarcastically, "What kind of watch do you have?"
Emma rolled her eyes then picked up the diamond, "Let's go see our kids."
Regina took the diamond knowingly she needs to put it safe place for time being so she conjured make it disappear into her vault temporarily. They held each other while aura of black and white surrounding them teleported to front of the mansion. Regina remembered something, now she knows whose castle it was since it was vacant, "Emma, do you remember our castle?"
Emma nodded, "How can I not?"
Regina turns towards pointing top of the hill pass Mal's castle, "I never knew whose castle it was until now. That castle is ours."
Emma lit up with mouth open, "Ours? Our room, painting room, my workout room, library collection and all of that?"
Regina nodded, "And your barbaric traps. It seems that there was never photos of us when we were in Enchanted Forest, so I had to make sure that no one destroys or worse until I found out who owns it."
Emma doesn't believe it, "The same castle by the ocean? How come I never knew that before?"
Regina smiles, "The very same because I don't share everything of my responsibilities as a Queen."
Emma still shunned, "How is it back here? I thought it was gone forever."
Regina nodded, "I thought so too, but honesty I have no idea how it is here. I only made minor adjustment inside to make it modern by adding showers, remodeled kitchen, electricity and bathrooms; other than that, everything is exact where it was."
Emma sighs as she looked forward to their castle, but still can't believe it is the very same one. She thought of that castle, their home every day. Regina notices she doesn't believe, "do you remember that small knife you had that was tied up by the bottom of my clothes after you were injured?"
Emma laughs, "I fought hard with my mother not to throw away that cloth of yours. I wanted something to remember you."
Regina turns her around to face her smiling kissing on her lips caressing her face, "it's still on that desk of yours."
Emma smiles kissing her back deeply wrapping around her, "I'll live whether you want to live. I don't care."
Regina still kissing between conversations, "You loved that place."
Emma nodded, "I love you more."
Regina nodded, "I have an idea during holidays, summers and weekends and we will stay in our home because it is far for kids to school during school week."
Emma was ecstatic by the suggestion, so she quickly passionately and softly kissed her on the lips as she slipped her tongue in and Regina welcomed it as they started to dance under the stars.
After few minutes of romance, Regma with Henry yelled running towards them freaking out, "You got to stop that!"
Regina and Emma shook up, "What is it, Regma?"
Regma pointed behind her, "I think whenever you do that, Amari floats away and uncontrollable magic but it's different than mine. It looked like it was mixed with ice and electricity which was weird."
Regina ran inside of the house to see where Amari is and Emma followed behind her with Regma. Regina searches above for Amari ignoring the mess of the house, "I see her magic is back."
Regma doesn't know what to do, "I can't find her again."
Emma asked, "Again?"
Regma explained, "It happened twice recently, and both times she floated down, but now its chaos. She disappeared."
Regina and Emma looked at each other wondering how the world this happens while Regina tries to think how to get her back after few times of failed attempts of calling her. Regina has an idea then turns to Emma, but Emma spoke up, "I'm not doing that!"
Regina scowls at her, "Call it mother's intuition, but I'll be fine Emma. You have to do this."
Emma rolled her eyes, "It's not you I'm worried about. It's me!"
Regina rolled her eyes and kissed her cheek then told everybody to be in her office while both of them are in the living room. Emma embraced herself preparing for anything or duck while she started magically make her white aura into a large ball to throw at Regina. Regina watches her, "You ready?"
Emma sighs as she had her ball above as soon she threw, Amari shows up to divert the ball towards the backward in Regina's arms as she clumsily tries to catch her. She held her tight while checking on her to make her she's ok laughing to herself. Amari hugged her, "momma you're back."
Regina tightly hugged her back, "Where did you go?"
Amari shrugged, "I don't know. I was looking for you."
Regina nodded, "Amari, when I call for you and I want you to focus on me, so you can easily come back to me."
Amari frowned, Regina playfully kisses her as Emma stood beside her, "Is she …"
Regina became sad while putting her down, "the one I never experience pregnancy?"
Emma hugged her tight, "I'm sorry babe."
Regina shrugged, "I'm just happy that she's happy and healthy child."
Regma, Hope and Henry walked out of the office to see if it's over and saw Amari in the living room playing with herself. They all saw Amari started to float again, so at the same time, "moms …"
Emma looked behind them disappointed, "What?"
They all pointed at Amari who is already floating away, so Regina hurried to the living room to grab her before she hits the ceiling. She redirected to Hope and Henry, "are you both doing anything for the night?"
Both of them told her no then Regina handed Amari to their arms, "you two are on Amari's watch so I can start cooking dinner."
Emma asked Hope, "Where's Colin?"
Hope replied, "He's with dad."
Emma nodded, "You can stay here until Christmas if you want," turns to Regina, "is it still her room, the one next to Regma?"
Regina smiles, "Yes, it is still Hope's room."
Hope eyes wide, "I have a room, here?"
Emma smiles hugs Hope, "When you were born, Aunt Regina and I painted light blue with white crib in the middle and a rocking chair. We used a bassinet downstairs for you to put in. The room is still yours anytime you can sleep here. You can decorate however you want as long you go by Aunt Regina first."
Hope doesn't know what to say, "Thank you, I think."
Regina simply nodded and went to the kitchen to resume cooking the famous lasagna. Emma keeps distracting Regina while she was cooking, so she became frustrated wanted to be intimate with her love. The whole family ate dinner happily and chatting. At first David and Snow was not happy with Emma's choices, but eventually they gave in and Hook left on his own adventure on Regina's request to look for Berta to make sure she's gets out free from prison wherever she is either she's dead or alive. She gave her the mirror for contacting in case of emergency. Hook was happy to leave Storybrooke for good and go back to his own adventure that he wanted for so long. Emma lease her house to anyone who wants to rent it since she emptied everything except her things to the mansion and the castle. They rearrange the castle to be more comfortable, like adding couches, tables, better mattresses and so on. They have been going every weekend, holidays and summers; Emma and two girls would go out hunting that she loves doing, but Regma hates it, so she just stayed with Regina instead. They had their own wedding and Emma surprised her with entire Enchanted Forest citizens. The family of Swan-Mills have never been happier and peaceful to be reunited again.
Happy Ever After
