10- Life unexpected


" Life is never a linear process, a few years ago I was newly married and planning to start a family. And we got our wish with a teenage bundle of joy." Mrs Nolan said, her eyes floating over Emma. Regina looked over at the blonde, who had been completely disconnected since breaking up with Lily.

Emma's head was down on her desk. She was in the life skills app playing some game. Regina pulled her phone out and looked at the new item. It was not live yet which told Regina That Emma was still working on it.

"In a few minutes the life simulator app will be live. It's a game you will play and then at the end of the game, you get an assignment. This will choose which of the partners will have to wear a pregnancy simulator. Now it doesn't matter if it is the male partner or the female partner. We are all inclusive. What we want to do is get you all into preparing for your perfect little bundle."

There was an excited mumble in the group as Emma finally finished playing with the app. She finalized it and published the game. When she looked over on her live version her game was showing a pending, waiting for Regina's game results before she could see her result.

"Hey, Regina, do me a favor and play the game for me, I want to make sure it's working before I tell anyone else to play." Emma said to her partner.

The older girl nodded and refreshed the app. She played the game and the results were in. Emma looked at Mary and nodded. "The app is ready to go, open them up and play your games. you have ten minutes. Emma looked down at her results. "What did you get?" Regina asked.

"I-" Emma was about to say but Mary Margaret interrupted.

"Once you are done with the game, wait and we will announce the results group by group." Mary said.

Emma rolled her eyes and sat back. "Emma, for what it's worth… I really like you." Regina said quietly. "I want to be with you, but my mother…"

"Regina, you don't have to say any of it. I don't expect you to turn your life upside down for some sophomore." Emma said. "We are both stuck in this town next year you get to be free, and I'll still be here."

"Emma… I-"

"Time! Okay let's have our reveals." Mary interrupted. "Hayden and Sarah, you go first." She said and the two girls turned to pay attention.

When it got to be their turn, Emma smiled. "Babe, I have news."

Regina finally read her own as Emma began and her heart plummeted to her stomach. "Good news I hope." Regina stated this because the other kids had had at least one of their partners in some nightmare scenarios and it looks like she had the bad news this time.

Emma looked at Regina and flattered a bit. "I'm pregnant."

"Oh…" Regina said. "Um I lost reelection."

"I'm sorry." Emma said

Just then the bell rang and Mary Margaret called out "Pregnant Partners come get your bellies."

Emma and Regina both got up and headed for the belly. "Emma, Do you want to sleep over? I can take care of you at my house, you are having my baby after all." Regina said.

Emma looked at Mary. "Can I?" Emma asked

"Sure, I guess but you have to wear it." Mary stated.

Emma smirked and took off her flannel, fitted the pregnancy vest over her tank top then placed her flannel over it effectively making her look like a pregnant teen. "Thanks because there was no way I was skateboarding with this belly."

Regina smiled and looked at her pregnant wife. "Meet me at cheer practice after school"

Emma nodded, "Okay."


After school Regina drives them to Emma's house. "I just have to get some clothes, you wanna come up?"

"Um...Sure." Regina said and turned off her car. She followed Emma up the stairs. Placing a hand on her lower back because the teenager was having a hard time walking with her baby bump. "Let me carry your bag." Regina mumbled.

"Oh, thanks." Emma said handing it over and placing her hand on her lower back.

Emma let them into the apartment, and smiled at her sister. "Hey Em. how is that vest treating you?"

"Oh my god, my back is killing me." She responded by taking the bag from Regina and hanging it on the hook.

"So the only time you're allowed to take it off is to shower and to sleep because they are not safe to sleep in." Mary stated.

"Okay." Emma stated and climbed the stairs. Regina just stood awkwardly in the living room. "Regina you can come up."

The older girl looked over at Emma's guardian and then figured that maybe Ms. Nolan thought she was straight, so she moved to the stairs. "Door open Emma."

"Yeah Yeah…" Emma said and Regina blushed prettily. Emma waited until Regina walked into her room and closed the door anyway.

"Emma!" Regina said shocked.

"What? Are you planning to have your way with me?" The blonde said and went on to pack her things.

"Maybe." Regina said.

Emma turned to look at the shy brunette. Regina blushed and sat on Emma's bed. The older girl looked around trying to gauge who Emma was from this room. She looked across the room as Emma pulled some underwear from her drawer and placed it in her bag. The brunette blushed and wondered if she would be able to see her in ther.

Emma also packed loose fitting clothing so that she could wear her belly more comfortably. Suddenly Regina notices Emma staring back at her. "What are you thinking about?"

Regina blinked, "Um.." she cleared her throat. "I was wondering if I should give you a massage since you know you're having my baby."

Emma blushed. "I'd like that." Emma said softly.

"Okay, you hungry? Maybe we can stop at granny's for dinner then we can get to my house and just hang out on my bed and watch movies while I work out the kinks"

"Aw you spoil me Mrs. Swan."

"Wait, what's wrong with Mills?" Regina asked.

"How about, Swan-Mills." Emma compromises.

"I like it… Mrs. Swan-Mills." Regina smiled, and Emma basked in the girl's approval.

"I'm ready." Emma stated, and Regina stood and grabbed the bag from the girl.

She opened the door for Emma and they both made their way down the stairs. They say goodbye to their teacher and get back in Regina's car.


"Did you see Lance in that pregnancy Vest?" Emma said laughing as Regina let them into the mansion.

"I swear that is so awesome that your sister wanted a genderless algorithm." Regina said.

"If only to get the vision of Killian wearing a Mumu." The girls laughed as Regina began to lead her friend toward the stairs.

"Hello Regina." Henry said coming out to the foyer. "Who do we have here."

"Oh Hi Daddy, this is my wife Emma." Regina introduced. Emma's eyebrows flew up to her hairline and turned her eyes over to the old man for a reaction. "She's having my baby this weekend so I am to take care of her."

"Nice to meet you finally, Emma" Henry said, no weird reaction. Emma smiled and shook the man's outstretched hand.

"I remember when your mother was pregnant, her back was sore a lot."

"Yeah, my back is killing me, and I'm usually pretty athletic." Emma answered

Regina watched her father and Emma interact, and her heart sped. This was what it felt like to have her family's approval of who she loved. This was what she wanted. She was going to make the best of tonight with Emma, maybe…


The girls entered Regina's room. The brunette guided the blonde to the en-suite so that she could change into her pajamas. "At least you don't have to wear that to sleep." Regina stated.

"I feel like it would crush the air out of me while I slept." Emma stated placing the belly carefully on the desk chair… then she looked up and froze, as she watched Regina apply lotion to her skin in a short and cami set. The silky sleepwear seemed so grown up. "Uh…" she looked at her shorts and tank top, and it seemed childish even if it was almost the same thing her partner was wearing.

She trailed her eyes up an olive toned leg to eyes that seemed intent in undressing her as well. Emma's nipples reacted to Regina's stare and the brunette blushed fiercely while the blonde covered her chest. "Um… what do you want to watch?" Regina asked

"Whatever is fine," Emma stated and sat on the bed. Regina rushed to sit by the head board and made room for Emma. She patted the bed next to her and the blonde climbed up making herself comfortable. Regina pulled up Netflix and eventually they both settled with watching Sex education.

Regina and Emma laughed nervously at the antics, and learned a lot about sex and sexuality as they binged most of the first season that night. Regina was too nervous to give the massage she offered, waiting for the blonde to ask for it. But when Emma didn't ask, the two turned in for the night, really disappointed.

"The next day, Emma and Regina hung around the mansion and the town like a married couple really enjoying themselves. Regina was incredibly helpful when Emma became tired.

For lunch the brunette made a picnic for the two of them. Setting them up under her apple tree. "This is a beautiful spot." Emma stated looking up at the tree.

"My dad planted this tree when I was born, it's finally producing edible fruit." Regina said looking up at the sturdy honey crisp tree. "My sister's tree is over there, he planted that when he adopted her."

Emma smiled. "That's a really good tradition." She patted her belly. "Are you planting one for junior here?"

Regina scrunched up her nose as she bit the sandwich she had brought. "Junior? What are our names Emma?"

"For the baby?" Emma asked tucking into her meal.

"Yes."

"What would you pick?"

"If it's a boy, I always wanted to name him after my dad." Regina said.

"What if is a girl?" Emma asked.

"I don't know…" She paused getting an idea. "What was your mother's name?"

"Evangeline." Emma said her eyes stinging. She blinked. And shook her head. "I like the name Daniel. Maybe we can call him Henry Daniel"

Regina pursed her lips and nodded. She understood her parents' death was still so fresh. So she didn't bring it up again. "A girl named Henry would be interesting."

Emma laughed. "How about Henrietta Daniella."

Regina laughed "fine… let's hope it's a boy."

The rest of the afternoon went much like this. Cora watched her daughter and her "wife" from the window in her study and she knew her daughter was falling in love." She sighed, and just let it go, that girl deserves someone that will soothe her heart. She's been hiding for so long.


The second night in Regina's room was even more charged. As they continued to watch Sex Education, Emma's mind kept going to Regina's lips. She wanted to kiss that girl so bad. It had been so long and all day they had been super flirty. "Hey R'gina?"

"Hmm?" Regina said absently staring at the television really wishing she'd get some of the treatment these kids on the show were getting. She needed to get laid.

"How about that Massage? I'm super sore and we did a lot today."

Regina started. "Sure.." she got off the bed and went into her en-suite. She pulled out some scented oils for her skin and came back. "Take off your tank. And lay on your stomach."

The blonde obliged, taking off the tank and not hiding the fact that she wasn't wearing a bra. She purposely gave the brunette a view of her pert teen breasts. Regina swallowed and followed Emma's trajectory laying on her stomach.

The brunette straddled the younger girl and began to rub the oil on her pale back. "My lower back hurts the worse." Emma stated reaching down between Regina's thighs and her butt and pushing down on her shorts so that they are lower down her hips. The blonde smiled when the brunette's hot core made contact with her upper thighs as she rubbed lower on her back.

"Regina?" Emma said and flipped over to look at the other girl's eyes. She took the oily hands in hers, and pressed them on her nipples. "Touch me , please."

Regina wetted her shorts a little more when her hands made contact with Emma's erect nipples, and she couldn't take anymore torture. She kissed the blonde deeply and passionately. Wasting no time in asking for entrance, almost taking it for herself. Her tongue demanded a taste of all of the girl's mouth. Emma reciprocated enthusiastically while her hands rested in Regina's upper inner thighs.

Emma slips one of her legs out from under the older girl allowing for greater friction to the place she wanted it most. And Regina agreed, because she moaned into the kiss, and bucked her silk clad center against her partner.

They separated from their kiss and stared into each other's eyes as their hips ground in together. Regina reached around herself and pulled her camisole off her torso. Exposing herself the way Emma had done before.

The blonde groaned and wanted more, pulling Regina back to her for a kiss. Eventually Emma's had enough and used her leverage and flipped them over; she hooked her fingers on the waistband of Regina's shorts and looked to the brunette for permission.

The brunette lifted her hips to allow the garments to be removed. Emma sighed and removed both of their shorts. When their nether lips made contact, Regina whimpered. She had dreamed of this for so long. She couldn't stop, her wild hips. Emma gripped the voluptuous hip and stilled them, then kissed her way down Regina's body. And Emma made love to the girl of her dreams.

Regina's heart soared, and she felt untethered as this woman, her wife, pleased her in the most loving and delicate ways. And they remained interlocked the whole night. And it was more than anyone they had ever been with.


The next morning, Regina and Emma awoke in a tangle. Emma looked to Regina who sat staring at her silently wrapped in sheets and contemplating the blonde and what they had done. They weren't even together. What did this mean to Emma.?

"You are thinking way too much." Emma said.

"I had a plan Emma," Regina started running her fingers nervously through her jet black hair. "Avoid all entanglements until I leave for college. I didn't want to have to face Cora,"

Emma was reading the gay panic in her lover's eyes, and she sat up. "Regina…"

"She's going to know, because I can't hide what I feel," Regina said.

"NO…" Emma stated coming up on her knees. "She doesn't have to know, I promise."

"She will make me stay away from you. I mean my sister is already pregnant and unmarried. And me… the lesbian."

"She doesn't have to know. Please Regina, no one has ever made me feel the way you do." Emma begged for Regina to break through her panic.

"Even if we got together, I'm almost an adult, and you're what… sixteen? I'll be going to Harvard next year and you'll be here. It isn't going to last."

Emma had no more words. Regina's panicked trance was impenetrable. The blonde, in tears, slid out of her lover's bed. She looked for her clothes, and packed her things. Putting on her belly vest, she grabbed her bag and stood at the foot of the brunette's bed. "Regina.."

"I can't," She whispered and Emma walked out of Regina's room. Heartbroken.
