"So," Regina began. "Now that you are officially my girlfriend, and we have a long ride back to Storybrooke, I figured that we could spend this time to get to know each other a little bit more than we already do,"

"How so?" Emma asked.

"Any sort of online question game,"

"Okay,"

While Regina kept her eyes on the road, Emma pulled her phone out. She thought this idea was stupid, but of course she wouldn't tell her girlfriend that. She ended up choosing a website that had a bunch of Would You Rather questions.

"Would you rather go back in time and meet your great-great-grandparents or go into the future and meet your great-great-grand children?" She asked, starting off the first question.

"Future," she answered immediately. "If I met anyone from the 1800's or sooner, it would be a living nightmare,"

"Is that so?"

"Yes. I wouldn't be able to be me. They'd all be super religious, homophobic assholes,"

Emma held back a laugh. For being born in 1894, she seemed to be up to Regina's standards. Of course her school record stated that she was born in 2002, and she knew how to act like it. But she knew Regina would lose her shit if she ever found out Emma's real age. She knew she could never tell her, but it was fun to imagine.

"What would you choose?" Regina asked her.

"I think I'd like to go to the past, like medieval times. I think it'd be fun to solve all your problems with sword-fighting,"

"What's the next question?"

"Would you rather go back to age five and know everything you know now, or stay where you are and know everything your future self knows?"

"The first one is very tempting, but I would screw up the future somehow. I'd probably steer clear of a lot of my ex-girlfriends, but they are an important part of who I am today. Plus, if I had all my knowledge as a five year-old, I would probably be graduating high school by the time I'd turn 10. And I highly doubt they would let me teach at age 14."

"Definitely not, but you already look young to be a teacher anyway,"

"I skipped the 4th grade in school, and I got my teaching license early. So that's how I managed to get this job at 21."

Emma clearly wasn't the biggest fan of this game, but she scrolled through some more questions anyway.

"Would you rather live in a world like ours now, where there's no magic or superheroes, or live in a world where all your friends have magic and superpowers except you?"

"I think I'd choose the second option; even if I didn't have powers, it would still be fun to watch my loved ones use it. What about you?"

"First one; if I can't have magic then no one can,"

She knew the question was meant for fun, but the real reason she would want to live in a world without magic was because of how much she hated witches. Except for the one good one she knew, the rest of the witches hated her and she hated them. The world would be better off without their magic anyway.

"Fair enough," Regina replied. "So what's the next one?"

As she started to scroll through the questions some more, she could feel herself getting bored. And when Emma got bored, she would play around with her heightened senses.

It probably wouldn't be a good idea to play with her enhanced vision, it never ended well when she had done that in a moving car.

If she played with her enhanced hearing, then she would end up tuning Regina out; she had a feeling that would annoy her, which was definitely something she didn't want to do.

So she settled on messing around with her enhanced smelling. This wasn't always safe, because it could put her into her hunter mode at times. But considering the fact that she had blood earlier today, she would be fine.

As she opened her mouth to read the next question, she also took in a deep breath from the air around her. Not too far away in the distance, she smelled another human. However, she also smelled a lot of alcohol mixed with human blood.

It was slightly intriguing, so she made the decision to use her enhanced hearing with it too.

Aiming her hearing around where she smelled the scent, she couldn't make out any words. Just repeated mumbling, and tires screeching on the street.

Shit. Emma thought to herself. There's a drunk driver out here.

Regina was just about to open her mouth to ask why the hell Emma was taking so long to pull up another question, when Emma's head darted from side to side. She rolled the window down, and tried to figure out how far away the car was.

She hoped the smell of the drunk driver would drift farther and farther away, but it was quite the opposite actually. It was getting closer and closer until she could finally see it approaching from in front of them. And it wasn't slowing down.

"What the hell?" Regina said aloud, noticing the other car swerving to the left and right. It was now approaching fast.

She didn't have much time to think, so Emma did the first thing that came into her mind; she used her enhanced speed to unbuckle herself and Regina in less than a second.

She then opened the passenger door in a split second, and grabbed Regina's arms.

Just as the car was a few feet away, she also used her enhanced strength to jump out of the car, pulling Regina with her.

As soon as they hit the ground, the collision happened.

They were lucky, had it been another second and it probably would have killed Regina; if Emma was a human it would've killed her too.

Emma managed to get them around 10 feet away from the car, which was now in pieces. Of course, she didn't have a scratch on her. But Regina seemed to be in a lot of discomfort. Her eyes widened as she stared upon the scene in front of her.

"You okay?" Emma asked.

"My arm is a little sore, but how the hell did we get out of here?"

"Fight or flight instinct,"

Regina's eyes darted back and forth between Emma and the cars. Letting out a sigh, she pulled out her phone to call 911. Meanwhile, Emma was trying to come up with a fake identity so no one would find out that she was out with her teacher.

After a few minutes, they heard the familiar sound of the sirens. Emma had her arms wrapped around her girlfriend and whispered into her ear.

"So no one finds out that I'm your student, we're gonna say that my name is Hope, and I'm 19."

"Okay,"

She clutched her right arm as she stared into the eyes of her girlfriend. It didn't make sense to her. This was the second time she had saved her life in an unexplainable way.

When the sound of the sirens finally arrived, multiple people came out. A few of them inspected the scene and attempted to recover the other driver, while one person came over to Emma and Regina.

"Could you tell me what happened?" He asked them.

"Sure," Regina replied, still looking confused. "We were driving down this road, and this other car was swerving all over the road. Just before they hit us, my girlfriend pulled us both out of the car,"

"We're going to take the both of you in just to make sure there are no internal injuries," he explained, motioning for them to join him in one of the cars. Meanwhile the other driver was being carried out on a stretcher.

Regina was still clutching her arm, while Emma had wrapped her arm around her shoulder. As they sat in the car, Regina's eyes narrowed. This had been the second time Emma claimed that fight or flight instinct saved her. But then again, this was the girl who knew how to get up and down on that roof of hers. So maybe she was just stronger and faster than she looked.

As the man drove them to the hospital, Emma tried to look as calm as possible. She knew that she wasn't supposed to use her abilities in front of humans, but if she hadn't, Regina would probably be dead. She was willing to do whatever it took to keep her safe, even if it meant using her powers like that. Luckily though, she wasn't being questioned too much about it.

When they arrived to the hospital, they were immediately screened for any possible injuries. Of course, Emma was fine. Regina wasn't as lucky though.

Even though Emma had saved her life, it appeared that she also broke her arm. The force of Emma yanking her out of the car caused a hairline fracture in her shoulder.

So they put her in an upper arm cast that immobilized any shoulder movement. It didn't hurt too much, and she was mostly grateful that Emma managed to pull her out. But she was also surprised that her girlfriend didn't have any injuries.

After both girls had been examined, they told Regina to come back in five days so they could examine her shoulder again.

Still far away from Storybrooke, the two of them decided to call an Uber to pick them up. Luckily, they weren't asked very many questions on the ride home. So Regina was dropped off at her house first, followed by Emma being dropped off at her place.

When she walked in, both her parents were waiting for her.

"So how'd it go?" Mary Margaret asked.

"I saved my girlfriend's life but I also broke her bones," Emma replied, shrugging.

"What?" David asked, wide eyed. "How did that happen?"

"There was a car about to hit us, so I opened the door and pulled her out. I saved her life, but I broke her shoulder in the process,"

"Oh," was all Mary Margaret said. "Is she okay now?"

Emma nodded in response. Before she could reply, a smile crept upon Mary Margaret's face.

"Did you refer to her as your girlfriend?" She asked.

"Yeah..." Emma replied. If she was a human, her cheeks would have turned bright red just then.

Her adoptive mother smiled, then ran over to hug her.

"How much does Ruby owe you now?" David asked her, rolling his eyes.

"Well at first I owed her $20, but now she owes me $10," she replied, grinning.

Emma scoffed, slightly annoyed at her mother and her best friend making bets about her love life.

She decided that it was time to write for a little bit, so she waved goodbye to her parents and headed up to her room.

Her readers were waiting for her, so she decided to feed them. She was feeling a mix of emotions, so her chapter ended up being all over the place.

But it was alright, Beca and Chloe were still happy. Just like Emma and Regina. And that was all that mattered.
