This chapter is for wicked73 with the prompt: "Emma and Regina go out for a nite on the town and the waitress is a little to friendly to Emma and Regina takes action."
"Where are we going?" Emma asked, allowing herself to be pulled along by Regina.
"Well I did tell you that I wanted for us to have a date night," Regina said. "And if we have a date in town, people always stare."
"They stare because you're gorgeous," Emma said, nudging Regina slightly.
Regina laughed. "Or they're staring because the Evil Queen is dating the Savior. Little ironic, don't you think?"
"Maybe," Emma said, shrugging. "I don't have any problems with it."
Regina rolled her eyes. "I would hope not."
Emma laughed. "So, where are we going? You never answered my question."
"There," Regina said, pointing to a restaurant across the street.
Emma's jaw dropped. "That's one of the most expensive places in Boston. How did you even get a reservation there?"
"You actually want to know?" Regina teased.
Emma narrowed her eyes. "What did you do?"
Regina laughed. "Nothing. Just a little magic that cleared a spot on their list."
"Regina!" Emma exclaimed. Regina smirked at her, and she couldn't help but start laughing. She supposed that magic did have good uses after all. Well, good for them at least.
"Come on," Regina said. "I'm hungry, and they'll get rid of our reservation if we're too late."
"Good evening," the waitress said, coming up to their table. "My name is Sophie, and I'll be taking care of you this evening." She looked over at Emma before winking.
Regina glared at Sophie before clearing her throat. "I'll just have a water, thank you."
"Oh right," Sophie said. "My bad. Got a little distracted." She smirked at Emma. "Anything for you to drink?"
"Just a water as well," Emma said.
"Okay, I'll be right back with those," Sophie said before leaving.
Emma chuckled at Regina. "If you keep glaring at her like that, she's going to burst into flame."
"Good," Regina mumbled. "I wish we had magic here."
"Somebody jealous?" Emma asked, smirking at Regina knowingly.
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Regina scoffed.
Emma raised an eyebrow. "Is that so? Then why do you look like you're plotting her murder?"
"She's just a little too friendly is all," Regina said. "I don't think that it's entirely appropriate to be flirting when you're supposed to be working."
"You're so jealous," Emma said, chuckling.
Regina rolled her eyes and was about to respond when Sophie came back to the table with two glasses of water. She placed Emma's in front of her before smirking. "Tall drink of water," she said, winking at Emma again.
"That's it," Regina growled. "We are on a date, and I would appreciate it if you would cease flirting with my girlfriend."
Sophie looked at her with wide eyes. "I..um...sorry. I didn't realize that you two were-"
Regina waved her hand dismissively, interrupting Sophie. "Thank you for your service with the water, but I think that we will require a different server."
Sophie nodded before hurrying off. Once she was out of sight, Emma burst out laughing. "That was fantastic."
Regina smiled. "The Evil Queen may have come out a little bit."
"Yeah she did," Emma said. "And it was sexy."
Regina chuckled. "I honestly don't feel bad about any of that."
Emma smiled before taking a drink of water. "You know, this actually is pretty good water."
Regina rolled her eyes before crumpling up a napkin and throwing it at Emma. It bounced lightly off of her face before landing on the table.
A couple moments later, a man came up to their table. "My name is Cody and I'll be your waiter this evening." He kept his eyes down onto his notepad, not making eye contact with either of them.
Emma looked past Cody and saw the whole management of the restaurant, Sophie included, watching with bated breath. Cody had clearly drawn the short straw.
"Nice to meet you," Emma said. She chuckled as the management visibly relaxed and went back to their jobs. "I think that we're ready to order now if that's okay."
Date nights with Regina certainly were never dull.
