Author's Note:

Here's another chapter, I'm going to try and update more frequently and I'll probably have another chapter up by the end of this week. Sorry for any mistakes there may be in this chapter as I no longer have a Beta Reader, I currently need a new one so if anyone is interested then let me know. I hope you enjoy this chapter and don't forget to review.


Emma POV:

The sweet smell of Jasmine and Vanilla overwhelms my senses slowly bringing me out of my deep sleep. The light breathing on my neck causes the small hairs on the back of my neck to stand. The warm breathing on my neck leaves goose bumps in its place and the pressure on my chest provides me with comfort.

Apart of me is confused as to who is causing me to feel all these things, to feel at peace. Something that I've never felt in my life not in the foster homes or even here in Storybook no matter how hard Snow and Charming may try to make me feel that way. I feel at home, a sense of security, the warmth I feel from this pressure on my chest is causing me feel this way.

Breathing in deeply to smell the intoxicating smell again I realize who this scent belongs to. I remember what happened the previous night. How me and Regina stayed up watching films together, that she fell asleep on me. Slowly opening my eyes, they quickly adjust to the light in the room. The first thing I see is her dark brunette hair; the hair perfectly laid away from her face accept for the few strains that were in her face. I love the new length she looks good with long hair hell she looks good with any hair style.

I can't help but gently run my fingers along the side of her face pulling the few strains of hair that was in her face back. Moaning in protest she turns her face away from my wondering hand burying her face into my chest. She Tightens her hold around my waist and I can't help but smile at this. Using one hand to tighten my hold around her waist I use my other to continue running my fingers through her hair.

Her breathing slowly beings to change and I know she is beginning to wake up. Mumbling incoherently, she begins to slowly open her eyes letting them adjust to the light in the room.

"Hmm. What are you doing?" She looks at me with a confused expression, one eyebrow raised.

"What do you mean?"

"Why are you using me as your human blanket?"

"Haven't we already had this conversation before? I'm sure you even said the same thing"
"Yet the question still stands. What are you doing?"

"Sleeping?"

"Why are you keeping me hostage?"

I laugh at her dramatics "Er if you haven't noticed you're the one on top of me, not that I mind" I smirk.

"Plus If anything you're the one keeping me hostage"

She removes her arms from around my waist trying to get up from her position and I tighten my hold so that she couldn't move from her set place. She tenses under my touch and I feel a small sense of hurt run through me, clearly she doesn't like our intermit position.

"I'm sure somehow this was you're doing"

"Right" Rolling my eyes, of course it was 'my doing'

"How we even ended up in this position I don't know"

"What do you mean?

"Never mind"

"You know this is seeming to become a pattern us falling asleep together"

"Yeah I know, it's awful"

"OK. Ouch" She gives a full smile, showing off her pearl white teeth and I know seeing this I will make it my life's mission to continue seeing that smile.

She buries her face into the side of my neck trying hide her smile, the action too adorable.

"OK. Let go I have to get ready for work and so do you"

She taps at my arms signalling me to release her.

"Stay. Have a day off"

She gives me a look of disbelief.
"Have you ever heard of The Mayor taking a day off?"

"No"

"Well there's your answer, I don't take breaks. I don't have time for breaks"

"You need to rest woman"
"Emma you're going to make me late"

"Fine" I reluctantly let go.

She gets up from our position and I watch her in amazement as she walks out of the living room trying to fix her mused hair. She so beautiful how did I not see this before, I mean I've always known she was hot and sexy as hell but how didn't I see how beautiful she was inside and out despite her past. I must have been distracted by Neal and Hook trying to get my attention no matter how much it was unwarranted. Small moments like these just remind me how truly beautiful she is.

Snow POV:

After seeing how Emma reacted to me and Charming, how she made us tell her everything we were hiding against our will. I still don't know how she did it but after seeing that and how she still hasn't come home, hasn't even come to see Henry. I know we have to break this curse that she's under whether she wants our help or not. Before she does something she regrets.

She turning into a monster, she has already attacked Regina and I'm sure she wouldn't hesitate to attack us. She almost did when we went to Regina's, I saw it in her eyes, the way she spoke to David. That was not our baby girl, the Emma we have come to know and love. I want my baby girl back, the one who is the saviour not this person she has become. Which is why decided to call the Blue fairy and asked her to come to the apartment. She has the lightest magic in our realm and in Storybook, she will be able to help Emma.

"So what is this about Snow? What's going on? You sounded pretty distressed over the phone"

"We need your help"

"Help with what? I thought Storybook was out of danger with the Snow queen gone"

"Storybook is fine, well I think it is. I'm talking about Emma we need your help with Emma"

"OK. What's wrong with the saviour"

"She's been cursed and turned into a Hybrid"

I watch as a look of disgust flashes across Blue's face, she tried to recover however the look of disgust remained.

"How did this happen?! Was it the Evil Queens doing? I know she saved me and the rest of the fairies but you never know with that women. Isn't she conspiring with the Maleficent, Ursula and Cruella? You know I saw them together the other day."

"As much as I want to blame Regina for what happened I can't. In fact, I did blame her I thought she was the reason that Emma was cursed but Emma said something that made me think. That me and Charming decided to lie to her begged Regina to do the same thing, we are the reason why she is the way she is"

"But Snow if we didn't have to give Emma up none of us would be in this position. We wouldn't even be here in Storybook for her to get cursed"

"Yes charming but we still would have lied to her and if you want to look at things that way if I didn't tell Cora about Daniel then he would still be alive and Regina wouldn't have become the Evil Queen"

"You were just a child"

"Look we don't have time to reminisce in the past. So can you help us Blue?"

"I can try after all we can't have the saviour being a Hybrid, an abomination to all realms"

"My daughter is NOT an abomination"

"If what you say is true snow then that beast is not your daughter anymore. Has she already had human blood?"

"… Yes"

"Then if we don't act quickly you won't have a daughter left to save"

"What are you planning to do?" Charming asks.

"Everything necessary to remove this curse from our saviour"

Emma's POV:

As soon as Regina left to get ready to go to work I fell back asleep refusing to go into work and have to face David. In fact, I'm surprised she didn't wake me up and tell me to get my ass to work like I'm sure she would have if the circumstances were different. Well maybe not in those exact words, I don't think I've ever heard her even utter a curse word before. I'm sure it would feel like toxic going down her throat just saying it. It would probably sound dirty coming from her mouth her being all refined and all. Smirking just at sheer thought of her cursing, just the image of her cursing alone causes my insides to hum in approval. The thought of her back being ached with her head thrown back as she screams out a curse word invades my thoughts. Remembering our heated moment in the kitchen wondering whether I would have been able to cause such a reaction.

And because of this I know I have to do something to distract myself to prevent my thoughts from wondering further. So I turn on the TV to try and provide myself with a distraction, it doesn't really help.

It was only after about two hours of watching TV did I begin to release how out of place I felt with being in Regina's home without her in it. Being surrounded her distinctive natural scent, she was everywhere in the house yet she wasn't because she wasn't here. Just the thought alone of her being away from me made me feel wary, not a peace… Come on Swan she only been gone for four hours at best and two hours of that I was asleep! I probably only feel this way because for the past few days we've been together we haven't been apart longer than 10 minutes.

However, my uneasiness only gets worse which is why I am now outside Regina's office with a bag of food from grannies. Waiting for her to tell me to come in which she does. God I have literally been away from her for a few hours but in those few hours all my mind has been able to focus on is Regina this Regina that. Has she eaten? Is she OK?

"Emma"

I walk towards her desk standing directly in front of her the only keeping us separated was the desk.

"I bought you lunch"

"I can see that"

Walking around the desk I remove the gap between us extending my hand out so she could place her hand into my own. She gives me a sceptically look and I can't help but smirk in response. Placing her hand into my palm I pull her up so she was now standing. Pulling her so that the front of her body was slightly press against my own and any sort of uneasiness I may have previously felt out of her presence diminished. Just her presence alone, her touch brings gives me such peace. Not wanting to remove how close we were I decide to do something I know wouldn't have had the confidence to do if I wasn't a Hybrid.

She follows me with her eyes as I remove my hand from her own circling around her still making sure to keep our close distance. She eventually turns around so that she was once again facing me. I make sure that we had eye contact before I slowly began to lower myself in her chair and she tilts her head in confusion.

"What are you doing?"
"Sitting down"

"Obviously" She rolls her eyes.

"Why are you sitting in my chair? That is my chair. Couldn't you have sat in the other chair rather than mine" She gestures the two chairs on the opposite side of the desk.

"I'm not seeing the problem here you can still sit down in your chair"

I gesture at my lap and I resist the urge to laugh when she looks at me clearly shocked. I give her a wolfish grin and she still makes no move to sit down which is no surprise to me. Standing back up so that we were facing each other again I place my hands on her waist and slowly turning her around with only slight resistance. So that she was facing away from me, I can't help but let my eyes linger on the curve of her ass before pulling at her waist so that I was now sitting on her desk chair with her sitting on my lap.

I can sense her uneasiness; this is not us we don't do this. We haven't even hugged before; I don't know where this need to be around her or this need to have her close has come from but it clearly isn't going away any time soon.

I pull her closer to my body so that my back was pressed against my front and I nuzzle my face along the side of her neck and breath in the scent of her shampoo which smelled of apples.

"You smell really good as always" I wrap my arms around the midsection of her body, hugging her from behind. Her whole body tense under my touch.

"Relax Regina" When she doesn't I repeat myself again however her body still remains tense.

"Emma this is highly inappropriate"

"I bought you food, you should eat"

"I'm not hungry"

"Come on Regina we both know that's a lie, plus if you wanted to get up you would have done it by now"

As soon as I say those words I regret them as I feel Regina begin to tug her way out of my arms and I tighten my hold around her. Trying to ignore how every movement she makes causes her ass to grind into my core.

"Let go"

"Yeah you're going to eat, I didn't mean for it to sound like a request. I'm not asking you to eat Regina I'm telling you to eat"

"Excuse me" She quickly turns around in my arms sending me one of her signature glares.

Yeah even I don't know where that came from, who the hell am I to tell her when to eat. What the hell is wrong with me.

"I need to make sure your OK that you remain healthy"

"I'm a big girl Miss Swan I'm not your responsibility, now if you don't mind releasing me"

"Regina please"

"Miss Swan I won't ask you again"

"Look I didn't mean to sound so controlling, I don't know what it is but I just need to make sure your OK. That your healthy, I don't know maybe it's the Hybrid in me but I won't be able to think straight until I do this so please just eat"

Her struggle to get out of my arms slowly comes to a stop even though I know if she true wanted to be out of my arms and off my lap she could be. She could have just poofed to the other side of the room or just poofed me out. I can't help but smile once I feel her relax in my arms.

"Fine. But let's just be clear I am only doing this because I'm sure you're only acting this way because you're a Hybrid, because if it was any other day Swan. I wouldn have hesitated to incinerated you for talking to me like that have I made myself perfectly clear?"

"Yes Madam Mayor" I know she's lying; she may have been pissed but she wouldn't physically hurt me. Whether she likes it or not she has gone soft.

"What did you bring" She sighs out

"Burgers and fries and a vanilla milkshake"

"You know sometimes I forget you're above the age of thirteen"

"I'll have you know many people my age eat this stuff"

"Emma what you have is diabetes in a bag, I hope you don't expect me to eat that"

I laugh at her words, of course the Queen would never think of eating so greasy and unhealthy.

"Whatever and no I bought you a Caesar salad and a vanilla milkshake"

"And why would you get me a vanilla milkshake?"

"Because I know you secretly love them"

I watch as a small smile appear on her face one that she tries to hide but fails.

"And who told you that?"

"Henry"

"Damn"

The room is then filled with a comfortable silence as we eat, despite the fact that it should have been awkward as hell I mean the 'Evil Queen' was sitting on the 'saviour's' lap. If someone told me this would happen four years ago and that we were doing it of our own free will I would have laughed in their face. The fact that she has actually been able to relax in my arms I would have never pictured this four years ago.

"You do know how weird this is right" She breaks the silence.

"Why does this have to be weird?"

"Well for one I'm sitting on the lap of the daughter of my once upon a time nemesis"

"Yeah well things change"

"Just know I'm only allowing this because you almost died"

"Are you sure you just don't like being in my arms"

"Please. Of course not, it's not my fault your Hybrid side as an obsessive need to be around me" Regina smirks and I roll my eyes at her cockiness, bringing a fry to my mouth.

"You know these fries are actually really good you should try some"

"Not all of us can afford to eat what we want and still keep their figure up, plus I actually care for my arteries"

"Regina you have one of the best bodies in Storybook a few fries won't hurt you"

After almost five minutes of begging her to try at least one fry she finally gave in, I even got her to take a small bite of my burger. I had a little celebratory dance in my head, I actually got Regina Mills to eat a small bite of my burger and some fries.

"Their good don't lie"

"Yes their not terrible"

I smile in victory as she takes another fry, who would have thought I would have Regina Mills sitting on my lap sharing fries with me.

"Not a word of this to anyone Miss Swan I have a reputation to up hold, if you tell a soul I consumed such junk I will destroy-"

"My happiness if it's the last thing you will do, yeah I've heard it before"

They both laugh at her words.

"I'm not that predictable am I" Regina grins.

"No not that predictable"

"So have you talked to Hook again since yesterday?"

"Nope, let's not talk about Hook"

"OK. How about we talk about Henry, are you prepared to tell him everything today?"

"No, but I don't really have a choice that kid is to clever for his own good he will know something is up if I don't tell him"

"Of course he is clever he is my son; he gets all his bad habits from you"

"Is that so?" I move forward resting my chin on her shoulder.

She turns to face me. "Yes it is. We can go and pick him up together after I'm done here"

"Will you be there when I tell him?"

"Do you want me to there?"

"Yeah"

"Then I will be there"

I just nod in response.
"You're Welcome"

"I should probably go now" I sigh out knowing her lunch break would be over soon. Regina gets up allowing me to stand and sits down where I once was.

"Thank you for the lunch Emma"

"It's alright"

"I guess I'll see you later"

"Yup"

I begin to make my way towards the door of her office, stopping at the door looking at her one more time throwing her a smile before leaving.

Regina's POV:

Seeing Emma leave I try to try and figure out what just happened, I don't know what has gotten into her. To me, I don't know whether to like this new side of Emma. I cannot deny I like the feeling of being in her arms not that she knows this but I shouldn't have enjoyed being in her arms as much as I did. We have crossed so many boundaries now that we wouldn't have if Emma wasn't a Hybrid, I know this for a fact. We almosted kissed, hugged, fell asleep in each other's arms on more than one occasion and now I have sat in her lap in the space of a few days. Something we didn't even manage to do in the space of 4 years, we have only just become friends barely.

My thoughts are cut short by the sound of my door being opened again.

"Emma did you forget something?" I ask not looking up from my desk.

"So I just missed the Saviour"

"Ursula"

"Madam Mayor I tried to stop her" My assistant Sarah rushes in stuttering out.

"That fine Sarah you may leave, please make sure no one interrupts us"

"Yes Madam Mayor" With that the young women leaves.

"Should I expect Cruella to turn up to tomorrow or in the next few hours"

"I highly doubt it she could care less about the saviour being a Hybrid. I came to see the saviour Hybrid for myself, but I see she is clearly not here which I find shocking as Mal said she has basically claimed you"

Regina rolls her eyes. "Do I look like a piece of meat; I can't be 'claimed'"

"I'm sure the saviour would like to sink her teeth into you, from what I've heard she already has. That you're the only one she can drink from. How romantic, I'm sure Mal is secretly jealous"

I watch as the sea bitch struts her way across my office as sits opposite me"

"So where's the saviour"

"For one what makes you think you can just strut into my office as if you own the place and for two the saviour is not a walking museum. 'You came to see her for yourself'" Regina snorts.

"She not an artefact"

"Protective I see"

"Get out"

"Oh come on Gina I'm only teasing you"

"Don't ever call me that again"

"I sure if the saviour called you this you wouldn't have a problem"

"Do actual have a purpose for this unpleasant visit?"

Ursula rolls her eyes. "I Just wanted to spend time with an old friend"

I give her a disbelieving look.

"What?"

I can't help but laugh shaking my head, she can't be serious.

Ursula puts her hand on her chest acting as though she was offended.

"I'm slightly hurt by that Gina, and here I thought we were friends"

"If you're going to call me that insufferable name than please close the door on your way out.

I watch as she slowly stands up getting ready to leave. "Gosh so sensitive"

"Just so you know I had nothing to do with the changing of the saviour"

"Why are you telling me this"

"No reason"

"So you're not trying to turn the saviour dark?"

"No I already got my happy ending"

"Yes you did so why are you here and not with daddy dearest?"

"Oh after hearing about the saviour I had to stay to see how this all plays out, plus I have a bet with Mal that I would like to win before I leave" Ursula smirks.

"But you might want to keep an eye on Cruella just because me and Mal want nothing to do with Golds plans doesn't mean she doesn't"

"What are you and Maleficent up to?"

"Regina, nothing I am purely here for my own entertainment"

Yes, that's why you both turned up specifically looking for the saviour one after the other.

She makes her way to my office door opening it before pausing and turning around to look at me.

"Enjoy your night with your Saviour. Bye Gina"

I throw my pen in her direction hoping to hit her for calling me that awful name hoping to hit her head to be exact. However, before it could hit her she had already gotten out the door and I could hear her laugh as she walked further away from the office door. What is it with Emma being called my saviour? What are Maleficent and Ursula up to? And why are they fascinated with the idea of the saviour being a hybrid?
