Emma waited patiently behind the door to her and Regina's bedroom. Any moment now, Regina would be home from work, and the fun could begin.

Suddenly, the door to the bedroom opened. Emma leapt into action, swinging the pillow in her hands at the person walking into the room.

"Ma!" Henry exclaimed. "Stop hitting me with the pillow, Mom isn't home yet!"

"Oh, sorry kid," Emma said, dropping the pillow to her side.

Henry laughed. "You have some good swinging skill. I'm impressed."

Emma rolled her eyes. "Thanks. I've had lots of practice with pillow fights. That's what led to all of the muscle."

"Do you think she'll play along?" Henry asked. "I tried to get her to join me and a couple friends when we did it, but she wasn't interested in that."

Emma smirked. "Oh she'll be joining. Trust me."

Henry just shook his head and laughed before leaving the room. For some reason, he didn't doubt for a second that Emma could make Regina participate in a pillow fight.

Emma smirked before going back to her hiding place. Now that Henry had experienced the ambush, she knew that it was a good hiding spot. Regina would totally be surprised.

The front door opened and closed, signaling that Regina had finally come home from work. She kicked off her shoes before walking upstairs, ready to change into more casual clothes that she only wore at home.

Regina paused as she reached the top of the stairs. It was quiet. Too quiet. Pursing her lips, Regina walked to Henry's room and opened his door quietly.

Henry was sitting at his desk, working away at his homework while listening to music. He was doing math, so it was probably his and Violet's song.

Smiling, Regina closed his door. Nothing suspicious there. Which only left one person that could be up to something.

Regina walked slowly towards her and Emma's bedroom. Something was up. Emma had the day off, and there was no way that she would have ignored the fact that Regina had finally come home.

As she got closer, Regina could slightly see the shadow of Emma's feet behind the door. She rolled her eyes. Of course Emma was trying to scare her.

Regina chuckled as she thought of a little fun of her own. She crept slowly towards the open bedroom door, careful not to make any noise and alert Emma to her presence.

What Emma hadn't thought about when she had chosen her hiding spot was what would happen if someone slammed the door open. She was about to find out.

Regina stopped in front of the door and smirked. This was going to be fun. She grabbed the doorknob and swung the door quickly open, laughing as Emma grunted and tried to back away.

"That's what you get for trying to hide behind doors and scare people," Regina teased, closing the door to allow Emma space to get out.

"I wasn't trying to scare you," Emma said. "I was trying to do this."

Before Regina could say another word, Emma swung her pillow and hit Regina in the arm with it.

"What are you doing?" Regina asked. "Why are you hitting me with a pillow?"

"It's called a pillow fight," Emma said. "Grab a pillow and hit me back with it."

Regina stared at Emma like she was crazy. "What in the world is this weird game that you're trying to get me to play?"

"I already told you," Emma said. "It's a pillow fight. Now grab a pillow and hit me back or I'm just going to start hitting you over and over."

Regina's eyes widened as she ran to the bed and grabbed a pillow, turning around just in time to block Emma's attack. "A sneak attack? How rude."

Emma just shrugged. "Bring it on."

Regina smiled. "Oh I plan to."
