Hello guy! thanks for reading and I really appreciate your support so keep leaving your reviews.
Emma had everything prepared, she putted the dishes on the table, two glasses of wine, a pair of candles and silverware. There was jazz music playing and dinner was almost ready.
This time, Emma had given the address of her apartment to Regina for her to arrive at the agreed time.
The blonde was wearing a blue dress that was not as elegant as the one she had worn in the theater. That night everything was more casual.
Seconds later the doorbell rang twice and Emma hurried to the door.
Regina was in front of her with a smile and on her face there were still traces of the make-up she used for her shows. She wore a long black skirt from the waist to the knee and shoes of the same color. A purple blouse stood out across her coat.
"You're just in time" Emma said, letting Regina to come in.
"I like being punctual." Regina took a quick glance at Emma's apartment. It was small but cozy "what a cute place."
"I do what I can."
"I like it."
"Dinner's ready, so sit down." Emma led the way to the dining room and Regina sat watching Emma walk into the kitchen.
The blonde served pasta on two plates and put on a special sauce that her mother had taught her to make. She took the two plates and bring them to the table. Then she walked to the refrigerator and took the bottle of wine she had bought for the occasion.
"I hope you like pasta." Emma sat down in front of the brunette and uncorked the wine bottle to serve the glasses. "Pasta is one of my specialties."
"Really?" Regina asked raising an eyebrow "And what other dishes do you know how to cook?
"Well, I also know how to prepare pasta ... Pasta fits me very well" Regina laughed and Emma smiled "Someday I'll prepare you pasta, I'm very good."
"You are a box of monies."
After eating between jokes, the two women were sitting on the couch with wine glasses in their hands and staring at each other.
"Regina, I want to ask you something."
"What is it?"
"Will you accompany me to see my parents?" I don't want to do it alone and you are the only person who knows that I found them."
Regina felt a flood at those words. Emma Swan had just entrusted this information to her and now she was asking her to be with her at a turning point in her life.
"Of course," she replied with a smile. "When are you going to see them?"
"In two days ... In the papers came their address so I know where to find them."
"I'm glad you decided to try."
"Partly, you helped me make the decision".
"What can I say? knowing what to do is one of my many virtues," Regina teased with a smile.
Emma wondered what her other virtues were, and the thought alone made her blush. That woman was taking up most of her thoughts and didn't bother her. She couldn't deny that every day that passed with her made her have more affection.
Regina was gone, leaving Emma with only a kiss on her cheek and a feeling of emptiness she had not felt before. She had had such a good time that she didn't want the night to end or at least she didn't want Regina to leave and leave her alone with her scent and the memories of her smile.
The day had arrived. Emma had driven in silence and in the company of Regina to the suburbs of the north where the house of her biological parents was.
The blonde's hands trembled every time she pushed them away from the steering wheel to rub them in her jeans. They'd been parked for half an hour in front of the house, but Emma hadn't dared to come down.
Regina was quietly watching Emma, she didn't dare to say anything or rush her to talk to her parents.
The brunette put a hand lightly on Emma's shoulder, drawing her attention.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
Emma nodded and took Regina's hand on her shoulder and gave her a squeeze.
"I have to" she whispered.
Seconds later she was getting off her car and walking towards and Regina did the same thing. Emma took Regina's hand trying to grasp courage.
They both walked to the door of that blue house. Regina could feel Emma's nervousness and she squeezed her hand in support.
The blonde rang the bell and seconds later a woman of short stature, black hair and large green eyes appeared through the door.
The woman looked at Emma with her eyes wide and winced.
"Good afternoon, I'm looking for…"
"Emma" the woman whispered.
Emma was surprised to hear her name in the sweet voice of the woman in front. She knew who she was.
"Are you Mary Margaret?" Emma's voice was almost inaudible.
"It's me."
"How do you know my name?"
"Because I named you... You're my daughter."
After the main shock. Mary Margaret had invited Emma and Regina over. She had called David with a small cry and now he was down with them staring into Emma's face with a small smile.
"It's incredible that you're here." The man's eyes sparkled every time he spoke to his daughter.
"I think you'd like us to give you some explanations." Mary Margaret handed Emma a glass of water and another to Regina.
Emma nodded and took a long swallow of water trying to reassure herself.
David sought approval in the eyes of his wife and once she nodded he proceeded to speak.
"For many years we thought that you had died" Said David trying to catch the look of Emma "We recently knew that it wasn't so and we started looking for you and that's how our researcher found yours and now you're here."
"Why did you think I was dead?" Emma asked, not understanding what David was saying.
"Your grandfather, the father of your mother, told us that you were born dead and he took care of disappearing you. He left you in that house making us believe that you were dead ... For your mother and me it was very hard."
"And why did he do that?"
"He didn't support our relationship" said Mary Margaret this time. "When I was pregnant with you, he did the impossible to separate us, and when he saw that he couldn't do it, he took you away from us ... But he died recently and confessed everything. And we started looking for you."
"You never wanted to leave me?" Emma's eyes were filled with tears, and Regina took her hand, trying to reassure her.
"Of course not Emma. You are our daughter and we would never have abandoned you."
"And if you allow us, we would like to be part of your life, be with you and catch up" David offered with a smile.
Emma got up from the couch as fast as she could and asked for an apology before running away.
"I think it's a lot to process for a single day." It was the first time Regina spoke in the whole meeting. "Try to look for her later, when she's calmer. She will be less defensive."
"Do you know her very well?" Mary Margaret asked curiously.
"A little." Regina gave them a small smile and followed Emma.
When she reached her side, she was leaning in her car with her head down and her arms folded.
"Everything is alright?" Regina asked, drawing closer to her.
Emma shook her head and that was when the brunette realized she was crying.
Regina came over and wrapped her in a hug that Emma couldn't refuse. She felt Regina's scent as she took a deep breath but she couldn't stop crying.
"Calm down" whispered the brunette caressing her hair "Everything will be fine… "Calm down".
