A request! Yay!
The title says it really! Not very long, but I hope you like it! And please! Just write to me! I take anything that is SwanQueen!
So far it had been a long day. Sitting at the station for almost five hours without much of a call, could just as well be a dead day as a bad one. So right now after thousands of attempts of hitting the trashcan with her thousands of paper balls, Emma Swan was officially tired for the day. She desperately wished for a father to find some sense and love for her and come earlier today to take over. But of course that wouldn't happen. He was busy taking care of Neal.
He was growing so fast! The kid was now almost 7 and he was running around the apartment 24/7. She understood why her parents were so stressed lately. They weren't used to having children around. They didn't get to raise her after all. Hell they didn't even know her until she was 28 had come and broken the damn curse. A ringing broke her thoughts and she turned to see her iPhone screen lit up and Regina's ID was showing. She sighed and took answered the phone.
"Hey babe", she said bringing the phone to her ear before continuing throwing the paper balls at the target.
"Hey, I was wondering if you could be the host of dinner this evening", the brunette said at the other end of the line and Emma raised an eyebrow at the woman.
"Uh sure, but it will probably only be some takeout from Granny's. I'm way to tired to make something up", she answered in all honesty and she cold hear her girlfriend chuckle.
"Of course. I was actually hoping you would say that. Cause I already ordered. I told Ruby for Granny to have it ready by the time you are done with your shift", she said and Emma couldn't love her girlfriend more. She leaned her head back and closed her eyes.
Thank you God
"Alright, I'll get it", she said before throwing another paper ball that actually hit the target and the sheriff jumped from her seat and screamed in victory.
"Yeah! That's right! I got you!"
"Are you playing that awful game of yours again?", Regina asked her and Emma laughed into the phone.
"Of course I am babe. It's not like I have anything else to do. Storybrooke is a boring town when we don't have any villains or mothers trying to kill us"
Regina let out a chuckle and nodded in agreement.
"I can understand your struggling. But your shift is almost over. Hang in tight Swan", she said and Emma groaned but smiled.
"I will Mills. Want me to pick up something else?"
"No thank you, I think dinner will do for now"
"Alright. I'll see you later then", she said and Regina smiled into the phone.
"I'll see you later. I love you"
"Love you too", the blonde answered back before hanging up. The brunette smiled as she laid the phone down. She and Emma had dated for a little over three years now. Henry had grown up and was now in college. It had broken Regina's heart to see her grown up son settling into his new room when she and Emma had driven him to New York that day. It had taken them almost an hour to say goodbye, and while Emma might not admit it, she was just as broken as Regina was. But the brunette knew the blonde enough to know that, the woman was just being strong so she could take care of her. And somehow Regina was thankful for that.
She and Emma had fallen in love almost two months after Henry had left. Due to the kid's leave, Emma knew Regina had needed the company since she was now all alone in the mansion and at first, as stubborn as the woman is, Regina had pushed the blonde back, not wanting to be a burden for her, and making her think that she couldn't handle herself. But eventually after many tries and failures, Regina had let Emma in and the moment they had been sitting in the mansions study with each a glass of apple cider in their hands, the brunette knew she was falling for the blonde.
Of course she didn't knew it at the time, but Emma had already fallen in love with the brunette way before that moment. Almost a year before that. But since she still had Killian to have around, she didn't act on those feelings and instead just kept them inside. But she and Killian had broken up a short while before Henry went to college and that broke Emma deeply. She thought they were going well, but apparently Killian had noticed the blondes lack of love and feelings. He had noticed how Emma's eyes followed Regina instead of him. He had noticed the way she looked at the former queen. And he knew the look as the look she had used to look at him with once upon a time.
But he had accepted that his girlfriend was falling in love with the brunette and he had let them have the talk. He had broken up with her and told her to follow her heart. He loved her to the deepest parts of his heart, and all he wanted was for Emma to be happy. Even if it wasn't with him. Emma of course had tried to deny it at first, not wanting to break the man's heart, but he had firmly told her that it was okay and he wanted her to have her best chance. And that was obviously with Regina. So he had moved out of their house and moved back to live on his ship.
It had broke Emma, but she knew it was the right choice. And she couldn't thank and love Killian enough to do the hard job for her. That night, Emma had driven to the mansion and Regina had immediately discovered the blondes pain in her eyes and let her in silently. They had sat for almost an hour without saying a word, just enjoying the silence and when the brunette finally had the courage to ask, the blonde had let all of her feelings out, and that night, Emma realized she was deep in love with Regina.
"Madame Mayor?", a voice said breaking the brunette from her endless train of thoughts and said mayor looked up to see her assistant Nina standing at the door.
"Yes?"
"It's six ma'am. It's your usual time to go home, and I got worried since you didn't come out", Nina said and Regina shook her head looking down at her clock. It was indeed six. Fifteen minutes pass that to be exact. She sighed and stood from her desk.
"Thank you Nina. And you can go home as well. I think it has been a long day for all of us", she said and Nina nodded and smiled in gratitude and thanked the mayor before leaving the office. Regina sighed and brought her hands to her face. It had indeed been a long day.
Emma walked inside Granny's meeting Ruby and Dorothy at the counter. The couple had, soon after her and Killian's break up, moved to Storybrooke from Oz along with Mulan and Emma couldn't be more happy to have the tall brunette back into her life. She had missed the woman dearly and having her back was great. Ruby was always good to talk to and she was thanking the Gods to have her back.
"Hey lovebirds", she said smiling wide and the two women turned to the blonde smiling wide. Emma went to hug Dorothy tightly. She and the other brunette had quickly developed a great friendship since she and Mulan joined the station as a deputies and Emma quickly realized what Ruby liked to much about the brunette. She was absolutely hilarious and to the blonde's surprise, the woman loved with all of her heart. She loved Ruby to pieces and you could easily see and hear that in the way the woman was speaking of her partner.
"How are you and the mayor?", Dorothy asked and Emma smiled as she went to hug Ruby as well.
"We are good. I'm picking up the dinner she ordered", Emma answered and Dorothy smiled but shook her head.
"No, I mean how is it really going? Like now that Henry isn't around more, are you guys... like...", the woman trailed off and Emma furrowed her eyebrows.
"Are we what?"
"She's trying to ask you if you have thought about having other kids", Ruby said and Emma turned to the woman and looked at her like she was crazy.
"What?"
"Oh come on Em, don't tell me you haven't thought about having another kid with her", Ruby said and Emma frowned turning to the other brunette.
"I'm with her. You guys seem ready for it"
Emma frowned even more and turned her head, only to discover Ashley and Sean with their 9 year old daughter Alexandra. They were sitting in one of the booth's and having their daily family dinner together. Emma couldn't help but think about her and Regina sitting in a booth with their own little daughter. She would have all Regina's beauty. Her face and hair would be all Regina as well. Sharp Cheekbones, sharp jaw, dark brown hair. But the eyes. Emma only saw green. Forest green eyes. She pictures their perfect little daughter sitting in that booth. A little Regina with Emma's eyes. And a behavior that would be all Henry. Their perfect little girl. And suddenly she realized it. She want a baby with Regina.
"Emma!", Ruby yelled and Emma jumped back in shock. She turned to the couple and noticed the confused looks on their faces. But they soon turned to look at Ashley and Sean and their daughter and the couple instantly knew.
"Don't worry Em. Regina loves you more than anything. She wants it just as much as you do", Ruby said and Dorothy nodded in agreement as she squeezed the blondes bicep. Emma sighed and nodded smiling at the couple in gratitude.
"Thank you", she whispered as she got her food before walking out of the diner with the little girl in her thoughts.
The dinner had been fairly quiet, and Regina wondered was wrong with Emma. Her girlfriend had been awfully quiet when she normally talked as the time flew. And seeing her girlfriend suddenly so quiet actually concerned her. So she put her salad down and turned to her girlfriend fully on the couch.
"Alright. What's going on?", she asked and Emma turned to her with confused eyes.
"What?"
"Emma. You have been quiet the entire time since you got home, not giving me more than a few words in answer. What's going on?", she asked again and Emma could see the worry in her girlfriends eyes. She sighed and but her sandwich down before taking a deep breath. Regina had expected something to come out by now, but nothing came. Emma just sat quietly and looked down at her fingers, trying to gather her thoughts. Now Regina automatically feared the worst. Has something happened? Did Emma not want to be with her anymore? Had she done something wrong, making Emma angry? All different thoughts and theories was running through Regina's mind and soon Emma could hear small sobs coming from the brunette.
"Is it me?", Regina asked and Emma frowned and looked at her girlfriend.
"What?"
"I-Is it me? Have-have i done something wrong? Do you not want to be with me anymore? Cause if you wont, you are allowed to le—"
"Regina, stop stop stop", Emma told her girlfriend softly as she saw the tears running down the brunette's cheeks and Regina let out another sob as she looked at Emma with vulnerable eyes. Emma couldn't find Regina more beautiful in that moment. The woman didn't know how much Emma desired her. So without another word, Emma leaned in and brought their lips together in a slow and soft kiss. Regina kissed her back immediately, not knowing if this could be their last. She always kissed Emma like it would be their last. She had lost so much love in the past and she didn't know what she would do if she lost Emma. Emma was her everything along with Henry. And Emma could feel it in their kisses. She had never been kissed with so much passion and love and she knew that she could never live without Regina after their first kiss. They broke apart when air became necessary and Regina instantly brought their foreheads together, desperate to feel her love close to her.
"I love you Regina, I will never break up with you. I wanna be with you for the rest of my life", Emma told her honestly and Regina felt her heart fill with love and kissed the woman once more.
"I love you too"
Emma smiled and kissed the woman's forehead.
"Then why have you been so quiet? Did something happen at the station?", Regina asked still utterly worried. Emma sighed and closed her eyes gathering her thoughts once more. This time Regina have her time and they sat in silence for almost five minutes before Emma finally spoke up.
"I saw Ashley and Sean today", she said and Regina nodded urging her to continue.
"And I saw Alexandra. She has gotten to big", Emma said and Regina nodded sensing where Emma was going with this, but didn't say anything. She wanted to hear it from Emma. She wanted her to come out with her thoughts.
"And it made me think about our future. Henry is off to college and we are here alone with just each other", she said and Regina nodded. Emma sighed and took a deep breath, preparing herself for what was coming next.
"I want another kid Regina"
Regina smiled wide and kissed her girlfriend's forehead in happiness. She had been waiting for Emma to say something about having other children. She had wanted them for a very long time, but she wasn't sure if Emma did and it didn't seem like she did, so she hadn't said anything, but now she was finally hearing the words leaving Emma's lips and she couldn't be more happy. Emma opened her eyes and discovered Regina silently crying once more.
"Wh-Why are you crying? Do you not want more? I-I'm sorry Gina, I sho—", she was interrupted as Regina shook her head and brought Emma in for kiss. Emma immediately kissed her back with all her love and she knew she had gotten the right answer.
"Of course I want another child with you baby. I love you so much", Regina said through her cries and Emma couldn't stop her own tears before they fell on her cheeks.
"I love you too"
