"This shouldn't be possible," Regina said, pacing back and forth.
Emma rolled her eyes affectionately from her spot on the bed. "Magic does crazy things. You know that."
Regina threw up her hands as she kept pacing. "Magic isn't supposed to get me pregnant!"
Emma laughed. "You have a point. I didn't even know that it was possible. But at the same time, I'm okay with it."
"I want to see Gold," Regina said, stopping in front of Emma.
"Why?" Emma asked. "He could tell you something untrue just to mess with you and make you paranoid."
Regina shook her head. "Not this time. He'll be curious more than anything. This shouldn't have been possible."
"I thought we determined that magic is a powerful thing," Emma said. "So why do you keep saying that this shouldn't be possible?"
Regina sighed before sitting on the bed next to Emma. "If I tell you something, will you promise not to get upset with me?"
"Depends on what it is," Emma teased.
Regina rolled her eyes. "I'm serious."
Emma's face turned serious as she looked at Regina. Something big was about to happen. "What do you want to tell me?"
"My mother tried at one point to find my soulmate," Regina said. "She brought back some imposter who she thought suited me better, instead of my actual soulmate."
"Why would she do that?" Emma asked. "And why was she helping you in the first place?"
"She wanted me to have a child," Regina said bitterly. "You know how I am. I had to do the opposite of what she wanted. So I drank a potion that would prevent me from ever having a child."
"You drank a what?" Emma asked.
Regina winced. "You promised not to get upset with me."
"I never promised anything," Emma countered. "The words 'I promise' were never spoken."
Regina opened her mouth as if to argue, but stopped. Emma never had promised not to get upset. Regina sighed.
"Why in the hell would you drink something like that?" Emma asked. "Why would you hurt yourself?"
"Because it hurt her more," Regina said. "I didn't want to do anything that would give her satisfaction."
Emma ran her fingers through her hair. "I really hate your mother."
Regina smiled. "That makes two of us."
"Wait. So that's why you want to see Gold?" Emma asked. "Because you took the potion, and now you're pregnant?"
Regina nodded. "This shouldn't be possible. The potion was to prevent any kind of pregnancy."
"Okay," Emma said. "Let's go see Gold."
"Well this certainly is a new development," Gold said thoughtfully.
"You think?" Regina said sarcastically. "I drank that potion to prevent all pregnancy. And yet here I am. Pregnant."
"True Love is a powerful thing," Gold said. "It breaks any curse."
"But this wasn't a curse," Regina argued.
"But it wasn't a wish either," Gold countered. "You drank something that damaged you. True Love fixes everything that is broken."
"I wasn't damaged," Regina growled.
Emma quickly grabbed Regina's hand. "I think what he meant to say is that you drank something that in a way, cursed you. True Love reverses all curses."
Regina nodded, but continued to glare at Gold. "So the baby will be fine? The potion won't hurt it?"
"It shouldn't," Gold said. "Your love for each other reversed the effects of the potion, therefore making it inactive. The baby should be fine."
"Alright," Regina said. "I suppose we owe you payment for this conversation?"
Gold shook his head. "I didn't do anything but answer your question."
Emma and Regina looked at him in surprise. Gold just laughed. "You're welcome. Now get out of my shop."
Emma smiled at him gratefully before pulling Regina out of the shop. "I can't believe that he didn't ask for payment," Regina said.
"Don't question it," Emma said. "I really don't want to owe him anything."
"Good point," Regina said. She looked in confusion as they walked past Emma's car. "Where are we going?"
Emma smiled. "I know that we only just found out, but I really want to go baby clothes shopping." Regina just laughed and let herself be pulled into the store.
I'm running out of ideas, so some prompts would be awesome! :)
