This chapter is dedicated to .Br with the prompt "Maybe they going to another country". Here we go!
"We should go on a vacation," Emma said.
"You're kidding, right?" Regina asked. "We can't leave town."
"Why not?" Emma argued. "The town is finally calm. We could totally leave right now. Enjoy time together before another disaster hits."
"I can't leave," Regina said.
"Why not?" Emma asked. "The borders let people back in now."
"That's not it," Regina said. "I lose my magic when we cross over the border."
"So do I," Emma pointed out. Regina sighed. Of course Emma would see through that excuse.
"I don't like feeling powerless," Regina explained. "Leaving town makes me feel that way."
"Please?" Emma begged. "We could just poof. We don't need to do the typical modes of transportation."
"And how would we get home?" Regina asked. "We wouldn't have magic to poof back."
Emma sighed and flopped down onto their bed. "I just need to get out of this town," she whined. She turned her head to look at Regina, turning her puppy dog eyes on full force.
"Oh no you don't," Regina said. She looked at the wall above Emma's head. "Don't you use your puppy dog eyes on me."
"Please?" Emma pouted. "We can go wherever you want."
Regina paused and looked at Emma. "Wherever I want?" she asked. Emma gulped and nodded.
Regina smirked. "Well then, I guess we had better get packing."
"You actually bought plane tickets?" Emma asked.
"I know how to work a computer," Regina teased. "But yes, I managed to buy plane tickets."
"Henry was okay with staying home, right?" Emma asked. "He's not going to be upset about being left out, is he?"
"He said that he was going to be fine," Regina reassured. "I gave him the task of making sure that Snow and David didn't attract any trouble while we were away."
"Good," Emma said.
"Why do you ask?" Regina asked.
Emma sighed. "I'm just never sure about leaving him," she said. "I feel like when I leave him, it's like I'm giving him up all over again."
"He knows that that's not the case," Regina reassured. "Now let's get on that plane."
"You've never been on a plane before, have you?" Emma asked.
Regina shook her head. "I've never left town remember? The only time I did leave was to adopt Henry, and that was just a drive away."
Emma grabbed her hand. "It'll be fine," she reassured. Regina smiled at her before breathing out the breath that she had been holding.
The plane started moving towards the runway, and Regina breathed in sharply as the plane started gaining speed.
"Relax," Emma said soothingly. "It'll lift into the air and then from there it will be smooth flying."
"Thank goodness we are off of that thing," Regina huffed. She had not relaxed the whole entire flight, and still was holding Emma's hand in a tight grip.
"You do realize that we have to ride that back home, right?" Emma asked.
Regina's eyes widened. "I did not think this trip through," she whined.
Emma smiled at her sympathetically. "Let's not think about that right now," she suggested. "We're in the city of love. We might as make the best of it."
"City of love?" Regina asked, smirking. "How very convenient."
They ended up spending two weeks in Europe, traveling from France to Germany, then Germany to Spain, before arriving again in France. Both women had bags full of souvenirs, and several presents for Henry.
"He's so spoiled," Emma said, laughing. "He could fit all of this stuff into his own suitcase!"
Regina laughed. "He's always been kind of spoiled," she admitted. "I wanted a child so badly, that when I finally got him, I wanted him to have the world."
"Well, he may not have the world, but he'll certainly have things from most of it!" Emma teased.
Regina smiled. "That he will," she said.
"And now, we get to get back on a plane," Emma said. Regina's smile slid from her face and she winced.
"I was afraid of that," she said.
"What'd you get me?" Henry asked excitedly.
"Who said that we got you anything?" Emma teased. Henry rolled his eyes, and Emma was hit by what a Regina move that was.
"Please," Henry scoffed. "I've been spoiled since the day that I was born."
"My bad," Regina said.
Emma and Henry laughed. "It's fine by me!" Henry said. Emma snorted and playfully nudged him.
"Course it was," she said. "Anyway, we did get you some stuff." Regina pointed to the large bag still waiting in the foyer.
"That's all for me?" Henry asked. His eyes widened as Emma and Regina nodded. He hugged them both before running over the check out what he had received.
"Should we stop buying him stuff for awhile?" Emma asked.
"Oh yeah," Regina replied. "This stuff should last him quite a long time."
"This stuff is awesome!" Henry exclaimed. "You guys need to go on vacations more often!"
Emma and Regina shared a glance. There was no way that Regina would ever be getting on a plane ever again. Not even for her little prince.
