"Think something." Emma whispered.

"What should I think?"

"Anything." She waited a few seconds. "Are you doing it?"

"Yes."

"I can't read your mind anymore. It's gone." Emma smiled but felt a bit of loss from the contact.

"Are you sure?" Regina quirked an eyebrow. Considering what they'd both just been through she was feeling quite light hearted.

Emma blushed. "I'm sorry, I'll pay to have the rug cleaned."

Regina laughed. "I thought you said you couldn't read my mind any more."

"Well, not technically but I know you Regina. You have a habit of being able to focus on the most menial and unimportant thing in a crisis."

"My rug is not menial."

"That's what I like about you." Emma grinned.

"Well if you like it so much you can keep it."

Emma laughed. "You know that's not what I meant. I'm saying I like you Regina."

Regina inspected her nails. "I know you do."

Emma looked at her aghast.

"Nope. Don't look at me like that!"

"Tell me Madam Mayor!"

"You know. I see no need to be as crude as to say it out loud. Words diminish it."

Emma looked genuinely upset and Regina felt terrible instantly. She magicked the rug out of the room and took a seat next to the blonde on the couch. She lightly put an arm around her and comforted her.

"I'm embarrassed that you know so much."

"I know Regina. So am I. I mean, this isn't exactly how I envisioned our first date going."

"So it was a date." Regina grinned.

"Oh stop it! You know I didn't know what it was and I know you didn't know either."

"Eloquently put." Regina quipped, earning her a soft tap to the thigh. "But now we both know, how would you like to proceed?"

"You know how."

"Emma dear, if this is ever going to work we need to start putting coherent words together."

"My thoughts exactly. So tell me."

Regina sighed knowing she just dug a hole for herself. "Fine Emma Swan. I like you."

"And?"

"Are you going to waste any more time because I can send you back to your charming parents."

Emma pulled Regina into her arms. "But you won't."

"No, I won't."

"Why won't you?"

She groaned. "Because I want you to kiss me again."

Emma did so as soon as the words left her lips. It was tender and gentle. She broke momentarily. "That wasn't so hard was it?"

"More talking?" Regina moaned.

"Tell me and I'll. .."

"Emma shut up and kiss me!"

And she did. Emma hardly noticed the waves of magic dancing around them as they kissed. When she broke for air she noticed they were no longer in the Mayor's home. They were in the Mayor's office and Emma grinned.

"Why are we here Madam Mayor?"

"Because Sheriff Swan, I've had a number of complaints from the residents of this town regarding the strange noises coming from this office. I need you to investigate it."

Emma blushed. "I told you not to look at that particular thought."

"Do you want me to stop?" Regina smirked as she poofed herself into that shirt with the too low buttons and the skirt which required she wear no panties.

Emma gulped. "Never."

"Good. If there's one thing you should know about me dear, it's that I enjoy our little games immensely and would like very much for them to continue as we explore this relationship. I'm open to role-playing within reason. I don't think I need to be explicit in what I'm not open to."

Emma nodded. "You know you don't have to say this. I think we have shared plenty already tonight."

"You need me to tell you and I might actually need to say it out loud. If we are going to continue I think we can safely say there will be no more hiding. No shame or embarrassment. We are both accutely aware of what we want and need from each other."

"Oh Regina. I want you."

"And you shall have me. Now don't break character again. I'm interested to see just how well this works out."

Emma paused. "But you wanted it to play out from the beginning with your rules."

Regina blushed. "I did. I do and it has. But we have plenty of time to revisit that chapter. Tonight, Henry is in the house. It would be inappropriate."

Emma wrinkled her face. "Oh we just left Henry."

"It's fine. I have a spell on the house. If he wakes up or anyone is there it will trigger and I'll be back in a poof."

Emma relaxed and decided to get into character. She slammed her hands down on the desk where Regina had settled herself automatically and leaned over the woman with a sparkle in her eye. "Really Madam Mayor. Strange noises? Are you sure that's a good use of taxpayers money?"

Regina's eyes darkened knowing what was coming. "You're the Sheriff, It's not your job to question what is a good use of funds for the town. I am the Mayor of this town and I'm telling you to investigate this Swan! I could have you fired."

"Yes Madam Mayor. So, where should I start?"

She pulled Emma across the table and kissed her fiercely. She pushed her further down until only blonde locks were visible between her legs.

"How about under my desk."

It had been so long since Regina had let herself be completely free in her desires. The way Emma had imagined this particular encounter playing out was not far off one of her own fantasies and it was delicious. The last time she'd allowed herself to act this way was when she was still Queen and she had to admit it was titillating to bring that into her relationship with Emma. In the Enchanted Kingdom she was expected to be submissive as a woman and wife but the role never quite suited her. Take or be taken was how she'd lived after the King's passing. The fact that Emma knew everything about her and still trusted her enough to continue their role playing made her want to give her everything. There was always a fear in her mind that she might get out of control and take it too far so she hadn't indulged this desire for many years. This was Emma's fantasy and she fully intended to give her her heart's desire.

A moan escaped her lips. She shuddered as Emma nestled between her legs, hot breath on her thighs. "I think I've found the source of problem Madam Mayor."

Regina racked her brain trying to remember the line exactly from Emma's fantasy. She steadied her breathing and responded. "Well it's about time Sheriff. Honestly I'm surprised you can manage to find your way to the office most days."

Emma grinned wide. Regina was playing the part so well.

"Well? What are you waiting for?" She widened herself and scooted down in the chair.

"Fix it."
