A/N: This is a short chapter with a less than 2k. So, enjoy it.


Emma took a stroll through the Main Street. People passed through by greeting her on their way. The blonde superstar smiled and greeted same before turning in the corner when she bumped onto Cora.

They stared at each other and chuckled before greeting themselves on the corner of Main Street. Emma waved her hand and smiled.

"Hello, Mrs. Mills. It's startlingly to see you here."

"Same here. So, how is your day?" Cora nodded.

"Well, just taking a stroll on the Main Street and had a lunch with your husband. It's ironic that I met the parents of Regina on same day."

"You can say that." The matriarch of the Mills family smirked with a chuckle. Emma furrowed her brows and later widened her eyes.

"You knew! Are you?"

"Oh well, yes. We do know but I prefer my husband interrogating you in the diner instead of me. Please believe me, I don't want to meddle in Regina's love life or sex life either. It would be a death wish for me if I did without Regina's knowledge of my meddling."


"Oh fuck." Emma said while glancing over the people who were shopping on the other side of Main Street and it felt like a big shit to her. Cora rolled her eyes and murmured to herself but continued.

"Oh, pardon your colorful language. Anyway, are you on way to see Regina today?"

"I guess so. I am. What about you?"

"I'm supposed to meet my husband at the diner but he failed to text or call me that he was on way to see your parents. Oh, it reminded me that I forgot to bring the cookware that I borrowed from the tea party last weekend." The oldest brunette woman swung her right fist in the air and bummed.

"I'm sure that my mother is glad if you can keep it for a while. So, I have to go. Nice to see you." Emma smiled before walking around to pass Cora but failed.

"Wait for me, I would like to see my daughter as well. I'm coming." Cora sweetly stated before walking ahead of Emma. The blonde actress complained to herself but gave her a smile. They walked together to the Town Hall. Emma was thankful that Zelena was staying at the Nolans Residence with her son for a while.

The golden-haired woman knew that her siblings were out for work. Brad was stuck with his 15 hours shift in the ambulance since last night to spend his time with his fiancée. Amy returned to New York City to finalize her plans for her new third novels.

It left Everett to stay at his childhood home with his wife and helped his father to secure the treehouse before it was finalized on the Christmas Eve. Neal was doing jack in the trades from August's woodshop to the docks all day.

Mary Margaret was due to teach her classes that day. David was having his off day from the sheriffing. His deputies pulled up the shifts to make up for lost hours that Regina requested them to finish their community services before starting to be an associate sheriff.


Due to the few minutes' walk, Cora studied on Emma's figure and got lost in her thoughts. Emma was doing same but felt nervous because she walked with Regina's mother. She was having enough of the interrogations from the Mills family except for Regina.

"What are you doing in this town? Am I supposed to know if you stay here for good?" Cora asked before going upstairs on the stairs and opened the front doors of the Town Hall. It put Emma to pause her thoughts and looked at herself to make sure that there were no cameras.

"I'm doing my thing to tell a truth in this town and I'm staying until the New Year's Day, I'm due to be back in Los Angeles with my son. So, what's else I need to know before Regina kills one of us?"

"It's a lame excuse you made. Promise me, you will propose to my daughter before I rob you down with my rifle." Cora sneered quietly before entering the office where Regina was coping with her paperwork. Emma widened her eyes and swallowed a lump in her throat then walked inside with a small smile.


Cora sat in the leather chair in front of Regina's desk and looked regal on her part with her smile. It affected Regina to be perplexed before looking up at Emma and brightening her smile.

"Hello Emma, it is nice seeing you again."

"Hi, Regina."

"Dear, you have to announce something I should make a request."

"I'm not your PA feed system, you know that, mother?" Regina was perplexed before shooting her an insult. The oldest matriarch waved her hand into a dismissal and continued.

"Regina, you know that we have an annual Christmas Ball. Oh Emma, you are invited as well."

"Oh eh, thanks." Emma mumbled before looking at Regina with her confused look. The brunette mayor sent her an apology smile and mentioned.

"Yes, mother. I'm aware of the annual Christmas Ball. It's hosting at the same place for the usual. What's else I should be aware?"

"Make your schedule left blank for few days right before Christmas. I believe that Emma has something on her sleeve and I shouldn't be in her place to meddle in your sex life. But even though, I'm aware of my short time here and I was supposed to meet Mary Margaret about the desserts that I hoped that she will do it." Cora explained with a smile before standing up from the chair and nodded.


It left Emma and Regina to open their jaws at Cora's bold statements. They had no words for it but nodded to flow with her demands. Cora smiled and greeted Emma for a good day then left the office to leave Emma and Regina alone.

"Umm, I'm confused. Can you clarify that one before I scream on your mother's name?" Emma said.

"I think she did clarify that we should have sex right now. I assumed that she planned something to twist your arms into a force to surprise me." Regina mumbled while looking at her mother's back before it was out of the sight.

"Cora!" Emma screamed on her name before chasing her away in the Town Hall. Regina heard her mother cursing in the hallway and the footsteps went quickly.

"Oh shit!" Cora widened her eyes when she heard the blonde superstar and ran for her life.


The brunette mayor slowly realized that she was alone and clarified on her understandings then cursed after grabbing her things and car keys. She slammed her office door and went after Emma and her mother.

"Motherfucker! You can't make me do that!" Emma yelled after Cora's retreat on the back road to the Nolans' residence. They chased away on the way and the cars went passing through by them. The townspeople were chattering until they heard the cursing between Emma and Cora. It caused them to laugh at the scene.

Regina walked too fast because she was on her high heels. She couldn't run like that but tried to do her best to catch her mother and Emma on way to the Nolans' residence. Regina didn't realize that she left her car behind at the Town Hall.

Unfortunately, it was in the wintertime, Emma ran like a crazy person with her hands in the air. Cora tried to be careful with her balance on the run. Until they reached the Nolans Residence and it left Mary Margaret and Zelena chattering on the front porch. They looked up at them who chased each other in the circles on the front yard.


Regina arrived with her deep breaths and waved her hand at her oldest sister, Zelena who went bewildered by their mother. Mary Margaret swirled her head to follow Emma's rant after Cora. The cursing continued until Regina screamed loudly to shut them down.

"Shut the fuck up!"

The rest of the ladies went bewildering as Regina glared at her mother. Mary Margaret rolled her eyes and beckoned Zelena to come inside. Cora crossed her arms and frowned.

"You, Mother. You have no excuses that you made it up because of Emma and I in a same sentence with the word, S-E-X! For everyone's sake, we don't have to fuck each other as we desire to have!"

It made Emma feel nervous but she chuckled in a small one and walked to Regina. She raked her blonde locks through her strands and looked anxiously at Cora who smirked at them.

"Regina, you just said it in front of them."

"What!?" Regina glared at the blonde actress and went perplexed. Emma grinned and gestured at their son who came out with Everett, Amy and Neal in the front porch.

The brunette mayor went in crimson red as she gave a small wave and chuckled anxiously.

"Hi. Didn't see you there."

"Oh dang! I wish I can watch a whole thing." Neal said with his waggled eyebrows. Amy and Everett were between their baby brother and slapped his back of head.

"Ow!"

"Neal!" Emma snarled. Regina blushed harder as she didn't want to look up at her mother and walked through them to get inside the house.

"That's what I am talking about!" Cora grinned ear to ear and went to her daughter to greet Zelena and Mary Margaret. Emma blushed harder and ran for it to get inside before her siblings tortured her.


It left Henry Jr. perplexed and asked his uncles and aunt. The rest of the others went blushing when they heard their nephew's comment.

"Can any of you explain me how the women have sex with each other?"

"Um. I think we leave the rest of an explanation to your mothers. Sounds good?" Brad stated when he came out from the front door. Others nodded rapidly before running inside. Henry frowned and shrugged. Brad exhaled deeply and turned inside to close the door behind him. The day went well.


A/N: I like this chapter as well. By the way, I was still busy with the reality. I couldn't find a time to post new chapters as I used to do that.
