Prompt for this chapter provided by wicked73 "Jealous Regina"

Regina understood that Emma was the town's Savior. But she wanted time with her girlfriend too. Emma was more than the Savior, just like how Regina was more than the Evil Queen.

Every time that Regina had gone to try to get Emma's attention, Emma had always been taken away from her to do something else. It was starting to get on Regina's nerves.

Regina walked into the Sheriff's office with a mission in mind. Get Emma to come home. "Emma?" Regina called. She walked over to Emma's desk only to sigh in disappointment. Emma wasn't there.

"Regina?" David asked. "What are you doing here?"

"I'm looking for Emma," Regina said. "Have you seen her?" David shook his head no as Regina sighed in defeat. Where was Emma?

After searching for several hours, Regina was even more frustrated. Why did the town get all of Emma's attention? It wasn't fair.

Regina walked to the docks and sat down on a bench. The day was peaceful, and yet Regina couldn't enjoy it. Emma was supposed to be there with her.

"Regina?" Emma called. "What are you doing out here?"

"Looking for you," Regina said, glaring. "But clearly other things are more important than spending time with your girlfriend."

"Hey now," Emma said. "Where'd you get that crazy idea?"

"You haven't been around all week," Regina said, looking down at her feet.

"Look at me," Emma said. She waited until Regina looked at her before continuing. "I haven't been around because this town has needed a lot of help getting stuff settled after the Snow Queen's curse. That's all over now."

"Really?" Regina asked. "You're all done with all that stuff?"

"Yep," Emma said. "But I need you to understand something before we go home. Okay?"

"Okay…"Regina said.

"I am this town's Savior," Emma said. "That means that sometimes I'll have to be crazy busy helping the town with stuff. I don't like it, but I have to. But that doesn't mean that I love you any less. You are my love. And that will never change."

Emma wrapped her arms around Regina, who relaxed into her embrace. "I'm sorry," Regina mumbled.

Emma just laughed. "It's all good," she said. "Besides, you're cute when you're jealous."
