I stood in the elevator and watched as the doors closed, gripping my helmet tightly in one hand then I pressed her number signaling it to move. My body buzzed with nerves as I wondered how this was going to go. In class Regina didn't pay much attention to me which was to be expected after my outburst. Practice went as well as it could have gone with a swollen cheek and eye. Coach Robin had me sitting out a lot to ice my face then when I got home to see my parents, let's just say they were not too happy with me. As I sat there holding a bag of frozen peas to my face I listened to them rant and rave about how violence is never the answer. The only way I could get out of the house was to lie and tell them that Belle asked me to come over and help her study with the possibility of dinner, to give myself some extra time.
Finally the said yes but with the "we're having a serious talk when you get home" comment following after it. The elevator came to a stop and the doors opened showing me my impending doom. Stepping out, I walked down her short hallway, pausing before I knocked on the door. Today I brought my own sweats and had on the same long sleeve shirt I was wearing to school so I wouldn't have to rely on Regina's. With a deep breath I softly knocked on the door.
Nothing came from inside her apartment. Hmm, I know she's here, I saw her car as I parked my bike. I began to tap my leg as I waited patiently for her. 5 minutes passed and I was about to knock again before the door unlocked and drifted open but she was not there. Pushing it open a little more with the tip of fingers I saw Regina walking off to the kitchen without so much as a hello.
Um, okay...yea still in trouble.
Softly I shut the door, placed my helmet on the floor and took off my boots. Shifting my arms behind my back I clasped my hands together and stood there silently. Regina has yet to even acknowledge my existent and I don't know what to do from here. Is she going to give me a signal? My eyes focused on her as she dipped a spoon in her cup and stirred. The steam rose and she took a deep breath, inhaling the smell.
Regina took it out and placed the spoon in the sink then grabbed the cup and started to climb her spiral staircase. Does this mean I follow? Probably, yes, move your fucking feet. Not seeming too eager, I followed her up the stairs and streams of sunlight fluttered through trees as it bounced off the walls. Yea, this view is fucking amazing. Regina opened the door and slipped outside, disappearing from my vision. Like a scared animal I crept outside, finding her sitting with her feet folded under legs as she sipped the drink from her cup. Taking the seat on the opposite side, I let my legs hang off the edge, laced my fingers and twirled my thumbs around one another.
The tension was clear as her eyes stayed staring blankly out into the distance. I couldn't read why though, so I stopped trying. I keep jumping to conclusions and it only makes things worse. Taking a deep breath, letting my body relax, I took my mind clear of any presumptions and just enjoyed sharing this moment we had.
Even Regina was pissed at me.
"Don't you dare confront me like that at school again." her voice was hard when she finally spoke. It wasn't stern just matter of fact. "And when someone does something nice for you, like cover your ass you say thank you, you don't cop an attitude."
Sinking my head down into my shoulders I was hit the remorse for my childish actions of the day.
"That shit where you assume you know what I'm going to say has to stop. You're going to fuck up our relationship before we get a chance to have one-"
"But-" I said cutting her off. Brown hair flew as she jerked her head to me telling me to shut the fuck up. Snapping my mouth shut I bit my tongue to keep from speaking.
"As I was saying." voice sharp with annoyance. "Stop doing that. You've been wrong almost every time and you know I don't like when people put words in my mouth. You acted completely immature today Emma, and quite frankly I'm pissed about it."
Regina paused to set her cup down on the table in front of us then brought her attention back to me. She stayed quiet and I turned to look at her.
"And what about Rachel?" I asked hesitantly.
"What about her?" she questioned.
"You're not upset about her asking me to the dance."
The scoff she made cut deep and the eye roll was salt sprinkled on top.
"Un-fucking-believable." she said. "This doesn't have to do with Rachel, if you want to go to the dance with her then go, what I'm talking about is you acting completely out of fucking pocket today. Do you even realize the position you put me in this morning?"
Wincing at her choice of words, I pulled my knees up to my chest as I wrapped my arms around them. I had an excuse for every statement she threw at me but did it matter? My excuses wouldn't resolve anything, she was right and I was wrong. Wrong, something I'm not use to but there's a first for everything. Bringing my gaze to her I sighed helplessly.
"I know." I mumbled. "I'm sorry Regina. I totally fucked up I just couldn't stand not knowing what you were thinking. You're absolutely right and again I'm so sorry." I didn't recognize the pleading in my own voice as the words spilled out of my mouth.
I meant it, because I hated this tension between us. I wanted my old confident flirty Regina back.
"What did you say?" she replied as the side of her lip curved up.
"You're right…?" I answered and questioned at the same time
Regina pulled her mouth into a full smile before standing up and straightening out her sweats.
"Looks like there's hope for you yet Emma Swan. Come on." she said with a hint of teasing in her voice, gliding away from me with the cup in her hand.
Following in her I watched as she placed her cup down on her night stand then dragged a chair that was sitting in the corner over to the bed. First she pointed at me then to the bed, I walked around and sat down with caution.
"You can put your feet on it if you want." she replied sitting down in the chair, taking off her sweatshirt in the process. Underneath was a spaghetti strap tank top and I'm pretty sure she wasn't wearing a bra. Taking a quiet gulp I took mine off, turned around on the bed, laid on my side as I propped up my elbow and rested my head in my hand. Her eyes landed on my feet, then my legs, drifting over my hips to the bit of skin that was peeking out from under my shirt and then finished with a looking of longing in her eyes.
"I wasn't mad at you for kissing me." Regina spoke as she leaned back in her chair keeping her gaze on me.
My fingers from my left hand played with strands lining her blanket.
"At first I was surprised when you kissed me but then when you started to pull away, my drive took over and I couldn't help but bring you back in."
"Then why did you push me away?" I asked softly.
"When you moaned my name..." Regina let her eyes close as her tongue swiped over her bottom lip and then bit down. I squeezed the blanket to keep from groaning in pleasure at the sight. "…it sort of woke me up to realize what I was doing, the only way I could keep myself from dragging you up to your room was to move you away from me."
She wanted to take me to my room? Oh my God.
"It was hard though." she chuckled opening her eyes. "I didn't want to stop. You just tasted so good."
Her brown eyes locked onto mine from under her lashes and my stomach coiled at the amount of arousal that looked back at me. Gently I squeezed my legs together in attempt to hide my growing hard on but it wasn't working so I sat up, crossed my legs then placed my hands in my laps. Her eyes darted down to my fingers before an amused smirk played on her lips.
"I couldn't get you off my mind when I went back to school for 5th." Regina replied as she stood up, her heavy stare burning into my eyes. "I just kept thinking about how soft they were, when I got back here, a cold shower was definitely needed."
Slowly she began to crawl on the bed, making sure to keep my distance for now I unfolded my legs and went scoot back only for her to catch my ankle jerking me back to her. The momentum caught me off guard as it dropped me to the bed, I felt it dip on either side of me by my thighs and glanced down to find Regina straddling me on her knees.
Fuck, she looks so damn sexy right now. My fingers itched to touch her but I kept them in place as I tried control my breathing. This was her show, she needed to set the pace, I needed to wait until she gave me permission. Regina placed her hands on my shirt in the middle of my stomach then dragged them down to the top of my sweats.
"I was so upset with myself for loosing control like that, I'm generally staying in check." she continued as her fingers curled under the hem of my shirt, rolling it up to the middle of my stomach. My body vibrated from anticipation as she stared down at my stomach.
What's about to happen? No, don't think about it, don't assume. Don't assume. Don't assume.
With tip of her nail she circled around my belly button causing my muscles to twitch under her feather light touch.
"I had come to a conclusion that night but then you showed your ass this morning by pulling the dumbest stunt." Regina teased, playfully pinching my skin sending shocks to my dick.
As graceful as she always is, she inched her knees forward then placed her hand on either side of my head. Her eyes looked over my bruises, my chin, then my lips where they stayed for a second before reaching my eyes. The warmth was back in the brown orbs forming a genuine smile on my face. Grinning in return she glanced to my lips again.
Do it, please do it.
"Emma, I-" she said cautiously. Chewing on the inside of her cheek, our gazes met."I don't think I can be just your friend." then finished by lifting her right hand grazing her fingers over my lips. My heart fluttered at her words and I dug my fingers into the bed beneath me. "When I'm not around I can keep it together, convince myself that it's the best for both of us, but now especially after that kiss..."
Her hand dropped beside my head again as she tilted down, brown eyes stared heavily into mine, her walls finally crumbling showing me how deeply she wanted this fucked up situation as much as I did. I melted under her gaze, letting my grip relax on the sheets and slowly I brought my hands to cup her face. She sighed contently, bringing her face closer to mine...Hovering inches above my lips just staring at me. Not being able to speak from this compromising position I nodded my head telling her it's okay. Without hesitation she dipped her head connecting her lips against mine as the shocks flooded through my body. Regina went to pull away but my hands brought her in deeper and she smiled into me from my lack of self control.
My heart erupted inside of my chest as my skin and lips vibrated with pleasure. Dropping both hands from her face, I slid them down her chest, outlined her breast then grazed my fingers over her exposed skin on her low back. Up until this point we were enjoying the feeling of our mouths pressed against one another but after I touched her she disconnected to let out a shaky breath, then moved to meet me again. This is pure fucking bliss. Regina shifted herself higher and whether or not it was on purpose her warm center brushed against my dick causing me to let a desperate whimper.
She left my lips for a moment but before I could pout her hands pulled me up by my shirt, placing her wrists on my shoulders then curled her legs around my body as she got comfortable on my lap. Immediately I wrapped my arms around her slender frame and pulled her into me as I dipped both hands under shirt gently scratching up and down her back. Arching into me she dropped her head back, exposing her neck and I wasted no time sinking my teeth into the skin. A constricted groan filled the loft causing my dick to throb against her, knowing she had to feel it. My body was craving every inch of her, to lick and kiss her soft skin.
A husky and breathy laugh filled the room as she pushed me away from her.
"That's all you're allowed to get."
"Really? So the authority falls in the bedroom too?" I teased.
Reaching up her hand to cup just behind my neck, Regina rolled her eyes then ran her thumb just under my ear softly. Leaning in she captured my lips once again then slid her tongue over my bottom lip tauntingly and as if she flipped a switch my mouth dropped open allowing her access. Our tongues explored one another for a few more seconds before she leaned back.
"Now that's all you get." she said before rolling off of me and sliding off the bed. "What time do you have to be home?"
"8:45." I replied.
In lithe steps she reached the top of her spiral staircase then turned her head back to me.
"You hungry?"
"So I take it the make up sex was good?"
I scowled at Killian while Belle laughed at his comment. We were walking through the halls Thursday morning just killing time before school started.
"We didn't have make up sex. Just because we are together doesn't mean we are going to jump in bed right away." I defended.
"But you want to?" Belle teased.
Dropping my head back I groaned.
"Oh you guys have no idea how bad I want to. I can't even be in the same vicinity as her without getting hard."
"Now you know the struggle." Killian joked as he leaned to the side, nudging me with his shoulder.
"I'm just happy you guys are figuring it out. Hopefully we won't have to hear about anymore fights now. By the way, your face looks way better than I expected." Belle added.
We turned a corner and before I could answer, telling her the ice packs were endless last night, my body collided hard into someone sending me on my ass. I really need to start paying attention this constant bumping into people is getting out of control. Shaking my head to clear the minor shock from the fall I noticed scattered papers on the floor.
"Shit, um, I'm sorry." I mumbled scrambling to get on my hands and knees as I picked them up.
"I think you should start wearing a sign the says danger."
My hand froze at the voice coming above me and I sighed, happy to hear it. Grasping the rest of the papers I straightened them out, stood up taking this chance to check out her smooth legs under the skin tight thigh length red dress, then handed them back to Regina. Belle and Jefferson laughed, nodding in agreement.
"You totally should Ems, oh wait, I know next year for your Halloween/Birthday party you should be a caution cone." Killian joked. He was barely able to get threw his dig at me without laughing in between.
He held up his hand for a high five as he looked at us girls.
"Anyone?" his smile still wide on his face.
Shrugging her shoulders, Regina reached out to connect her hand with his.
"Yes! I knew there was a reason I liked you."
Smiling in response Regina turned her attention back to me as she grabbed the papers from my hands.
"Thank you." her eyes danced over my face and she raised an eyebrow. "You're looking much better today."
Blushing for some unknown reason I shoved my hands in my pockets, feeling the warmth flood my body from her simple comment. My eyes darted down the top of her breast that were showing just above the v cut, watching her chest rise and fall.
"Thanks." I replied.
Crinkling her nose she bit her lip and took a deep breath.
"Well I should get going to the copy room. I'll see you all around." Regina replied keeping her gaze on me then shifted to my friends.
"Hope so." Killian replied sticking out his hand.
Embracing with her free hand Regina shook his and I saw his face turn red. It was probably because the way she was looking at him with those intense eyes. She could make anybody crumble. He let go after soon after as he took hushed breaths in attempt to calm himself down.
"I'll see you later Belle." she replied, sending a cute wink her way before sliding in between our bodies gently brushing her breast against my arm leaving all of us in a lust filled daze.
"I don't understand how you control yourself around...that." Belle replied keeping her gaze on Regina's ass.
"Yea, I mean the way she looked at me, her eyes are really intense." Killian added.
"It's a daily fucking struggle." I muttered.
Turning around we continued doing our laps as more and more students flooded in.
"She looked like she wanted to kiss you." he said with a smile on his face.
"Well that makes two of us." I sighed.
Belle intertwined our fingers, rested her head on my shoulder as she kept pace with us.
"It's okay Ems, soon Christmas break will be here and you guys could spend all sorts of time together and speaking of winter, I don't have a date to the dance, do you want to go together?" she asked.
"Eh, I don't know. Not sure it would be a good idea since I told Rachel I probably wasn't going."
Both of them stopped, halting me in place as well. Killian stepped in front of me with an amused expression.
"Rachel asked you to the dance?" he sounded intrigued.
"Yea, that's what she wanted to talk to me about yesterday." I responded as if they knew. Apparently they didn't.
"Gotcha, well maybe you can hang with Aliey and I, not sure that we're going either." Killian replied with his dazzling smile.
"Wait, and you told you weren't going?" Belle interjected u-turning the conversation back to me.
"Well, yea, Regina was standing right there, not that I would've said yes anyway because I hate dances."
The sides of Belle's mouth dropped at my comment. What happened? She knows the thought of hormonal boys grinding up against me with their sweaty bodies is not my idea of fun. Killian and I shared a quick questioning gaze before I brought my attention back to her. Untangling my hand from hers I lifted both of them up to grab of face gently, bringing her eyes to mine.
"What's up?" I asked softly.
She tried to pull her face but I held on and she let out a frustrated sigh.
"It's just, it's out last winter dance ever, and I know it may not seem like a big deal to you but I would like to share this event with all my friends." Belle responded then held out her hand for Killian to take. Instead, he came up behind her and wrapped his arms over the top of her shoulders hugging her closely.
It's very rare that Belle ever gets sad so I knew this must've been a touchy subject for her and when she's sad I can never bring myself to say no.
"We'll go." I replied softly because yes Killian is doing this with me.
"Yea we can go as one big group, we can all be each other's dates." he added.
With a soft smile I nodded my head in agreement and let my hands fall from her face.
"Prom too?" Belle asked.
"Prom too." I responded, then let a mischievous smile appear on my face. "Group hug." I shouted before I slammed my body into her trapping Belle between Killian and myself.
We spun her around in circles as she pretended she couldn't breathe.
"ME TOO!" I heard Jefferson shout then felt him land on my back throwing me off balance and sending us to the ground in a fit of laughter.
"Dog pile!"Ruby added before she laid down on top of us.
Students walked around our bodies as we rolled around on the ground from laughing, shooting us inconvenient or crazy looks. Fuck you, I'm having fun with my friends.
"Well what did we miss?"
Looking to my left I saw Kelsey standing with her with the rest of the girls behind her. Aliey rushed around them to help Killian up as we slowly got ourselves together. Standing up I dusted off my clothes then helped Jefferson.
"We're all going to the dance as one big date." Killian gleamed as Aliey slid her hand under his arm.
"Ohh maybe we can all match." she said looking over at him all googly eyed and what not.
"Anything for my queen." he cooed and rubbed his nose against hers.
Ugh, get a fucking room guys. I'm all for PDA but I could do without the helpless romantic bullshit comments.
Who am I kidding. If that was Regina and I, I wouldn't give a fuck.
"So you're going?" Rachel asked interrupting my thoughts.
Shifting my gaze to hers, I noticed the twinkle in her eyes.
"Yea, we all are, as a group." I said trying to get the hint across this is not a date.
"Group or not, I'm happy I can spend some time with you."
The team 'Oooo' around us. No, guys do NOT encourage her.
"Should be fun hanging out with everyone."
I'm trying to choose my words carefully, it's a weird situation because I have a girlfriend but nobody hear knows that except Killian and Belle and even then we can't just talk about it.
As far as everyone is concerned, I'm single.
"It's going to be the best." Jefferson added pulling me into his side as we continued our morning walk and chatted about how we were going to coordinate.
I sat in physics twirling my pencil between my fingers bored out of my fucking mind. We were reviewing our homework where I should be paying attention but all I can do is count the minutes until Regina and I get to hang out together. Resting my head on my fist I tuned out Ethan's characteristics and definition of work and I tilted my head to Lily's empty seat.
Yea I couldn't stand her but I wondered why she wasn't here today? Maybe she was embarrassed with how bad her face looked. That's not really her style though, if anything she would show up just to prove she didn't pussy out. It's weird.
A light tap on my shoulder brought me out of my daze, looking up I saw Regina towering over me with a serious expression but her eyes swirled with amusement.
"Day dreaming?" she asked as scattered chuckles filtered the class. Sitting up in my chair I cleared my throat and brought the text book closer to me.
"Sorry Ms. Mills." I mumbled while I shifted my eyes to the words on the pages.
"Since you've so kindly joined us why don't you explain the 3 most important things to note when calculating work."
My neck got hot as I kept my gaze down. What the fuck, she's know I wasn't paying attention. Isn't there a special treatment pass I get for being her girlfriend? I snorted to myself at the thought, it wouldn't be Regina if she did go easy on me.
"Um-" I started then skimmed through the paragraphs trying to find what in the hell she was talking about. A light scoff from Ethan reached my ears and before I could give him some smart ass comment he turned around, flipped the pages forward, then pointed his finger to the word "WORK". I smiled softly at him and he nodded his head then turned around. "The object must move over some distance in order for work to be done. Second, the force and the distance of movement must be in the same direction. And finally, the force must be constant." I answered, regurgitating the words smoothly from the text book. Lifting my head, I met Regina's gaze as she smiled down at me. The struggle was so fucking real as I tried not to look at her boobs in that amazing dress she's wearing.
"Thank you, Ethan." Regina replied then walked back to the front as she continued talking.
Thank you Ethan? The fuck. He turned around in his chair and pushed his tongue out. Usually shit like that would bother me but knowing that I'm the one kissing her and he's not is a victory I will always have. The rest of class went by without any problem since I'd decided to pay attention knowing she would call on me again, and she did so I'm glad I was prepared for that. Gliding to her desk she leaned her elbows on to it, giving everyone the sexiest once over ever. With only 5 minutes left of class Regina gave everyone permission to leave giving me a big fucking smile because I know what comes next.
Us time.
"So you staying after." Belle asked as she slid on top of my desk with her backpack on. Standing up, I pressed my back against her chest and hugged her from behind.
"Yup. I'll see you tomorrow?"
Shaking her head yes, Belle leaned back into me as I held her close. I could feel Regina's eyes staying on us as I rocked her back and forth, still feeling shitty that I had upset her earlier today. The door to the classroom swung open as the last student left and all our friends barged in.
"Why do I always miss the cuddle sessions." Jefferson pouted. He turned his head to Regina and waved frantically at her. "Show me that dress, missy." he stated as he damn near sprinted to her desk to talk to her. He spun her around slowly as a slew of compliments fell from his lips.
Ruby, Killian, and the rest of the girls walked over to us and circled around my desk.
"I was thinking we could go shopping for our outfits today." T commented.
Ugh, fucking shopping.
"You guys can go, I have to stay after to do some studying." Hopefully it will be Regina's body. "I'll just grab mine next week."
"No girl you can not wait until the last minute." Dorothy said.
Letting go of Belle I stepped back taking a spot in our huddle and before I could answer a sweet laugh filled the classroom. Jerking my head back I saw Jefferson talking closely to Regina and they were giggling.
"Earth to Emma." Kelsey teased.
"Sorry." I whispered. "No, you guys go ahead, plus I don't even know if I want to go drog or fem." I finished, giving my attention back to the girls plus Killian.
"Definitely drog." he said. "You in a decent suit and tie. To fucking die for." Killian said with a devilish smile.
"Plus it's been forever since you've worn one." Ruby added.
It has been. Since freshman year.
"Okay, but only one condition. I get to pick out my own outfit without any of you there."
Enter the chorus of groans.
"Emma, I don't think that's a good idea." Jefferson said joining the group draping his arm over my shoulder.
"And why not?" I replied scowling.
"What do you mean why not?" Killian added. "If 2 plus 2 didn't match you wouldn't find 4." he joked.
Well damn. With quick movements I jetted around our friends and locked him in a choke hold as I rubbed my fist over his hair.
"Pineapple! Fucking pineapple." he shouted our safe word as we wrestled around in a playful manner.
"If you guys break anything you buy it." Regina warned.
Through bursts of laughter we finally calmed down, gave her an apologetic look, and went back over to our friends.
"Hey, if I'm actually dressing up you all have to at least let me pick my own outfit."
"Fine. You win. Will we at least get a picture?" Jefferson asked.
"Nope." I replied popping the 'p'. "You all have to suffer until you see me. Same for prom too."
They sighed but eventually gave in.
"We are going for violet. Not lavender but violet. So don't come looking like you're going to an Easter dinner." Sadie joked before she pulled me in for a hug.
"Hugs!" shouted T as they all crowded us.
Sometimes we are just so disgustingly cute.
I walked with them to the classroom as they said bye finally leaving Regina and I alone. When I turned though I jumped from surprise as she was standing right behind me with a raised eyebrow and a flirty smile.
"A suit huh?" she asked stepping closer. "Will I get to see it?"
"Are you going to the dance." I teased back.
"I will, I have to chaperon."
"Well, you'll see it then."
Frowning slightly, she gave me a kicked puppy look as she stuck out her bottom lip. I wanted to jump in her arms and bite the shit out of it, hearing her moan in pleasure.
"Fair enough." she finally said. "You ready?"
You have no fucking idea.
"I am."
We walked to the parking lot slowly, making sure the school was mostly deserted before I followed her home.
"Do you remember how to get to my house?" she asked as we neared my bike.
"Yup."
"Okay, then you leave first. I'll be about 5 minutes behind you."
Always so cautious, but I get it.
I put on my helmet and rode out of the lot, I caught a shit ton of green lights on the way which was going to get me there in record time. I kept checking my side mirrors to see if she was close but I couldn't find her anywhere until I pulled into the parking garage and already saw her car. She was leaning against the driver door and as I parked horizontally in front of the Porsche I gave her a confused look.
"How did you get here before me?"
"A shortcut." she smiled, pushing her body off the car and reached over to pull off my helmet.
My hair fell in front of my face, tickling my nose.
"What shortcut?" I questioned.
Laughing, Regina slid her hands through my strands moving them back to clear up my face.
"A woman has to have her secrets." she replied with a smirk.
Rolling my eyes, I got off my motorcycle and followed her to the elevator. Slipping in, she lifted her wallet to the pad and the door closed. I took the spot on the right side of the elevator and she took the left. Casually, I rested my hand on the wall behind me and closed my eyes. I hummed Aretha Franklins' 'Think' as the elevator began to rise. Grandpa always use to sing and hum her music whenever he came to visit. He use to tell me she was one of the best singers of all time.
My breathing caught in my chest as the hair on my arm stood on end. Maybe Regina takes ninja lessons on the side because I didn't hear her come up to me until her warm body was pressed against mine as she placed soft kisses on my neck.
My eyes flew open and I gasped loudly at the contact. Slowly she dragged her lips up the vein then gently tugged on my ear lobe with her teeth. I moaned embarrassingly loud and felt that smirk on the side of my face. Moving her mouth to mine she softly connected our lips, her tongue slipped out asking for entrance and I happily obliged. At about the time my lungs felt like they were going to explode, Regina moved her mouth away from mine biting down on my bottom lip before pulling away completely.
"I've been wanting to do this all day." she said in a low husky voice. Her hands moved skillfully under my shirt, gently tracing the tips of her fingers over my skin.
"Fuck Regina." I groaned out through clenched teeth. My hands began to drift up to her hips before the elevator dinged. When the door began to open she stepped away from me with a hungry look in her eye and walked out leaving my face flushed and my lungs spasming from lack of oxygen. Once my motor skills returned, my legs moved as fast as they could and I caught up with her just as she was opening the door to her place. Stepping to the side with ease Regina let me in behind her then closed the door and at the sound of the lock clicking my heart began to pound.
I wanted alone time. Now we are alone so why am I nervous?
Unlacing my boots I took them off, placing them neatly near the door, slipped off my jacket then set my helmet down. Regina brushed past me softly, heading to the stairs.
"I'm going to go change. Do you want anything to wear?"
How about nothing at all.
"Yes, thank you."
She jogged upstairs, turned her gaze to me then tilted her head, motioning to follow. I bolted up the steps behind her and waited at the top as she walked to her dresser. Fishing through the drawer, the same clothes I was wearing last time were handed to me. Grasping them I slipped into the bathroom, threw them on and came out in record time.
The weight in my stomach dropped and twisted into knot as I gulped. Standing with her back towards me Regina had on leggings, but her back was bare. I mean nothing. Just skin.
Fucking throb.
Tilting her chin over her shoulder she made eye contact with me then smirked as she slipped her shirt on. It ended in the middle of her stomach.
Double fucking throb.
"Come on, you hungry?" she asked reaching out her hand. Wrapping my pinkie under hers she led me downstairs while I chuckled.
"Are you trying to fatten me up so you can eat me later?"
A melodic laugh floated from her lips.
"No, I just like to cook and you like to eat. Do you like Manicotti?"
Damn, I was kind of hoping that would take a sexual turn.
"I don't think I've ever had it." I replied honestly.
When we reached the bottom she gave me a faux surprised face.
"Never had Manicotti. Well Miss Swan it's you're lucky night."
See when she says it like that, then it's turn on. Smiling from ear to ear, I started to walked into the kitchen until she held up her hands.
"You will be sitting on the couch working on your project."
"Wait what?"
No but for real. Wait what?
"On the couch, project, now."
I frowned openly at her feeling my shoulders drop.
"We get some time alone and you want me to do more school work?" my voice was sounding close to a whine.
"Yes. I can't have you in here distracting me." her lips pulled into a teasing grin.
Spinning me around she gently pushed my body towards her living room with a small chuckle behind it. I sulked to my backpack, grabbed it, then to the couch, flopped down and pulled her laptop to my lap as I laid out resting my head on the pillow behind me.
Stupid Paul Dirac. Fucking cock block.
"But I have most of my stuff on my other computer. How will I know where I left off." I tried on more time.
She shot me a glare from over the counter and I hunched my shoulders. That meant 'don't play games, do your fucking work.' As I worked on my project, taking little notes here and there I'd find myself taking quick glances at Regina while she worked in the kitchen. She was so fucking hot when she's focused. Slowly she dropped her head back, making eye contact with me, and pointed to the laptop with the knife she was holding.
With a smile I continued working on my biography. I wasn't sure how much time had passed before she called me into the kitchen.
"Can you come taste this?"
Quickly I sat the computer down and jogged into the kitchen, Regina lifted herself onto the counter holding a spoon in her hand. Not asking questions I stepped in between her dangling legs, wrapped my lips around the spoon and sucked it off.
It tasted like cheese.
"That's really amazing." I gurgled out, staring at the spoon hoping more would appear. My eyes caught her hand moving to my face as she lifted my chin to meet her gaze. Brown eyes bore into mine as her thumb swiped over my lip, bringing it back to her face and licking it off.
"You had some ricotta on your lip and you're right, it is amazing." Regina winked at me, slid off the counter and walked around my frozen body.
She's such a tease. Spinning around, I went to tell her.
"You know that-" SPLAT. What. The. Fuck.
Regina let out a deep belly laugh that echoed off the walls in her loft and I wished I could see her face if I wasn't covered in whatever creamy wet mess this was. I wiped my eyes then flicked my hands shaking off the cream.
"I told you I'd get you back." she heckled.
"Get me back for what?" I asked loudly.
Seriously, what did I do.
I squinted at her trying to see through the shit.
"For the rally." she said in 'duh' voice.
The rally? That was a really long fucking time go.
"Well, remind me never to piss you off. I see how long you can hold a grudge for."
She gasped jokingly and saw her blurry figure get close, soon her body was pressing mine into the counter behind me. I heard the water run in the sink before a wet towel was wiping my face.
"Don't be a wuss, at least you didn't have to go to class after."
I took over for her, continued to clean my face and shirt.
"You didn't look like you had been hit with pie after."
We teased and joked with each other and she finally let me help her with some food. And by helping I mean putting the dish in the oven. I began to set the table as she pointed out where everything was while placing the food on the plate. Sitting down I waited patiently as she brought me a plate of an amazing looking masterpiece.
Food fucking porn.
"What would like to drink?"
You. Fuck, get you're mind out of the gutter.
"What do you have?"
"Water, tea, soda, milk..."
"Soda."
She came back over with a can of root beer and a bottle in other hand.
"Well cider wasn't an option." I joked as Regina placed down my drink.
"It's not, for you." she replied taking her place across from me. "Dig in." she finished with a smile.
One bite and an uncontrollable groan left my mouth. This tastes so good. I heard her laugh and watched as she cut her dish up into tiny pieces then ate. The energy between us felt calm, as if we'd done this a million times, like this was our everyday routine. I sighed in contentment, thinking how perfect this moment is right now and how unbelievable lucky I am to be sitting across from a woman like her.
Me, Emma Swan.
"How did you know you first liked me?" I asked hoping my brashness wouldn't throw off the mood.
Regina chewed her food slowly, swallowed then her tongue swiped the inside of her cheek.
"Well, it wasn't a like in the beginning at least I don't think it was. It was more of, I noticed you."
I took another bite and her eyes darted to my lips before she licked her own.
"I don't know why but on that first day, I did." she continued keeping her gaze on me. "Then when you weren't paying attention I thought you were going to be trouble." cutting herself with a light chuckle her eyes went to the table for a split second. "You were always staring off blankly, I wondered if I was boring you."
Laughing with her I shook my head no.
"What were you thinking about on that day anyway?" she asked me.
Placing my fork on the plate, I sat up straight and wiped my mouth.
"Promise you won't laugh?"
"I can't promise that." she said honestly.
Chuckling at the response I took a deep breath.
"For some reason, I can't control my body around you. When you walked in I instantly got hard, the minute you spoke I was attracted to how well you could command a room, the way your clothes fit you perfectly and after you told off Richie then looked at me, I don't know it just, as cliché as it sounds, made my body go crazy, including my cock. I think I had zipper imprint from how tight it got."
I waited for the laugh but none came, what I did get was a look of lust and arousal. Not what I was expecting at all.
"Your cock." she said hitting the 'k' hard.
Oh, I think that's first time I talked about it like that in front of her.
"I'm sorry, if you don't like that word then I can use something else." I said recovering quickly.
"I don't mind, it actually...it kind of a turns me on." she replied taking a swig of the bottle.
Gulp.
Regina watched me take another bite with the same glossy lustful look in her eyes, I shifted in my seat from being under close scrutiny.
"When I went home that night I couldn't get you off my mind." Regina continued as she brought the food to her mouth, bit down and ever slowly slid the piece of manicotti off it. "I tried to ignore it thinking maybe I was feeling nostalgic about my high school days. The next day when you walked by car I found myself rushing out to talk to you before I could think about what I was doing. Secretly I was happy that the bell had rung, I used the excuse of writing you pass just so I could keep you a little longer."
I blushed at her words, remembering how much of blubbering limping idiot I was that day.
"Hey speaking of those events, the volleyball tryouts, you were there right?" I asked.
"I was, I had to drop something off to Robin I was surprised to see you there, and when you fell...ouch."
I chuckled lightly, at least I can laugh about it now.
"Was I the reason?" she asked taking another sip of her cider.
Finishing the last bite of my food, I waited until she was done to clear our plates off the table.
"No, I fell because I'm clumsy as fuck." I replied as I rinsed off the dishes. "The blue blouse you were wearing that day caught my eye, I should've just continued running but no, I had to look at you and then I was looking at the ground."
Regina stood up, glided over to the counter and placed her drink across from me.
"I'm happy you still made the team. You look good in spandex"
A teasing grin splayed across her lips with the hottest nose crinkle.
"Stop it. I have to admit though, the way you asked to tutor me was pretty sly."
"I have some tricks up my sleeve."
"Does one of those tricks involve talking about the compatibility of astrological signs?"
Turning off the water, I wiped my hands with a towel, swooped up my drink then walked behind her as she led us upstairs.
"You were getting bold, writing your birthday on the board and then the whole'i heard those two don't go together very well'. I needed to rise to the challenge."
We reached the top and placed our drinks on the night stand.
Regina walked to her bed then laid down on the left side, patting the open spot next to her. I climbed over then fell down in it then slowly she rolled over on to her side and shimmied her hand under my shirt drawing those seductive patterns across my skin. My heart beat in my chest as I watched her hand move underneath the fabric, just beyond that was something shaping up to be a nice hard on.
Drifting my gaze to the side I noticed Regina was looking too. Her mouth had dropped open slightly and her breathing became shallow. The invisible picture she was drawing became much more firm as her hands slid lower, running over the waistband of the sweat shorts. My cock jumped and she took a sharp intake of breath.
"It's so addicting watching you react to me." Regina whispered softly, her breath crashing against my face in the most pleasant way. Slowly she began to swipe the crease of my hips going back and for between both sides. My hips jerked once as my stomach rippled from the shudders running up my spine. The bulge in my shorts got bigger and if I wasn't careful, I would cum.
"When you sa-said-" I stuttered, from her touch. "Our signs represented the ultimate sexual freedom. Did you mean that?"
She propped her arm up and rested her head in the palm of her hand.
"I did." she said bringing her gaze to mine. Her pupils had dilated considerably and I could see the flush on her neck. "There are no limitations between the two signs." Swiftly her fingers slipped back under my shirt, goosebumps rose all over my body giving me another crippling shiver. "No taboos." Slowly she scraped her fingernails down my abdomen and my breath hitched as her eyes burned into mine with sexual desire. "Sex between the two, is raw, carnal-" I tuned her out because now those slender fingers had finally drifted under my shorts but still over my underwear, either way she's never been this close to my dick and the electric currents have it pulsing. "-it's aggressively passionate it's..." she dipped her lips to my ear. "explosive." Regina finished. Her voice was so full of power and arousal that it almost sent me over the edge.
The tips of her fingers brushed against the base of my bulge and my eyes rolled into the back of my head as my hands dug into the mattress below me.
"I thought you wanted to take it slow." I rasped out.
"I do, doesn't mean we can't have fun." she replied lowly then cupped her hand over my bulge. My back arched off the bed and a deep growl erupted from my chest. "Fuck Emma..." she said hoarsely then snapped her hand from my sweats.
I whimpered pathetically as the blood pounded in my ears deafening me from any words she was about to speak. The bed dipped next to me and soon her warm body was straddling me, curling her fingers under the hem of my shirt rolling it up just under my breast.
The odd sensation of deja vu hit as I realized this is the same position we were in last night.
Trailing her hands down my sides Regina wrapped them around my low back and lifted my body up as her mouth came down to kiss my stomach. I dug the back of my head into my pillow as her lips went places they'd never been before. Sinking her fingernails into my skin Regina nipped at different parts of my stomach, my hips jerked wildly and every time they did she would moan. My hands drifted to her hair and I had to refrain from pushing her down to my cock.
I had to keep telling myself we're just making out.
Heavily.
And while it's mind blowing, we're just making out, sorta.
"Wah wah wah wah wahhh, she talking to me like I'm dumb, I should've known, I should've left that bitch alone-"
Regina froze in her spot and groaned annoyingly into me while she moved her hands off my back and slapping the bed. Sitting up, she gracefully rolled off me and to her phone.
"Hey Mom." she answered with an edge to her voice, then mouthed 'sorry' to me. "Okay, wait-let me call you back-no, mom, I'm going to call back." and then she hung up.
Running a hand through her hair she gave me an apologetic expression.
"Well that's a way to kill a mood." she breathed out harshly. "Sorry about that."
"It's okay" I mumbled. "We should've probably stopped there anyway I was starting loose it." My ears throbbed from the heat that flooded my body and I had to take deep breaths to calm down. Fixing my shirt I sat up in the bed feeling the stiffness down below. "Should I go?"
"As much as I want you stay, I think so. What are you doing after the game?"
"We're suppose to be going out. I could ask my parents to 'stay the night at Belle's house'." I said doing air quotes and wiggling my eyebrows.
She walked over to my side of the bed and sat down on the edge.
"No, you should actually hang out with them. Be a teenager." she replied softly as her fingers tucked some rogue blonde strands behind my ear. "I'll get you some other time."
Pulling me off the bed Regina led me to the bathroom with my clothes. After I changed we walked downstairs, got all my stuff together, and headed for the door. I reached out to pull her in for a hug, she seemed surprised, generally it's her who's initiating the contact between us.
"Thank you for the food." I whispered. "But not for the blue balls."
Gently she poked my side then pressed me against the door.
"You love it." She teased, drawing her head back to look at me.
"I like how it starts."
"Well now when you finish tonight you have something more to work with for that imagination of yours."
Pulling my eyebrows together I gave her a curious look.
"How do you know I'll finish tonight?"
Regina dragged me back into her body as she opened the door.
"Because I felt how hard you were."
Point.
"By the way, what did you think...of that?" my voice flipping from flirty and playful to a nervous wreck. It sounds just as bad as asking 'how did you like my dick?'. Just an awkward question.
She kissed my lips softly, then my cheek and finally my ear.
"I'm impressed." she whispered giving me a soft moan at the end, before softly pushing my stunned body out of her loft with the door closing in front of me.
