This chapter is for OTrizy with the prompt: "Henry doesn't like that Emma is stronger than him and he sulks while his sisters tease him about it and giving high fives to Emma and Regina lightly scolds them with a knowing grin. Later on SQ talks in bed fluffy times."

"I challenge you to arm wrestling," Henry said, waltzing into the kitchen.

Emma looked at him in surprise. "Are you serious? No way, kid."

"Why not?" Henry asked. "Afraid you're going to lose?"

"No," Emma said, chuckling. "I'm afraid you're going to lose and be incredibly embarrassed that you lost to your mother."

"I won't lose," Henry said confidently, sitting across from Emma and holding up his arm in position. "Come on."

Emma sighed and rolled her eyes. "Fine. But just once."

"What are you guys doing?" Ava asked, walking into the room with Lola. Emma smiled at them both. She loved how inseparable that Ava and Lola were.

"I'm about to beat Ma at arm wrestling," Henry said.

Ava snorted. "As if. She's going to kick your butt." Lola just nodded in agreement, too tired to do anything else. It was close to her bedtime.

"You watch," Henry said. "I'm going to beat her, and then you'll all be proved wrong."

Emma chuckled before placing her hand in Henry's. "You ready?" Henry nodded. "Three, two one."

Henry and Emma struggled against each other for a couple seconds before Emma slammed Henry's hand onto the table. Ava and Lola cheered and gave Emma high-fives for her victory.

"What in the world is going on in here?" Regina asked. "How many times have I said not to get all riled up before bedtime?"

"Sorry," Emma apologized, grinning from ear to ear. "I was just proving our son wrong."

"Whatever," Henry mumbled, sulking. "You probably used your magic to cheat."

"I may have magic, but I would never use it like that," Emma argued. "If you really want to test me, we can do it again."

"No need," Lola said, wide-awake now. "Then he'll just be humiliated in front of his sisters all over again."

"Now, now," Regina scolded gently, grinning at her daughters knowingly. "Leave your brother alone. All of you, up to bed."

The girls giggled again before going up to their rooms, a defeated Henry right behind them. "Come on," Regina said. "Let's go make sure they actually went to bed."


"What are you smiling about?" Emma asked later when they were both in bed.

"The fact that you completely creamed our son at arm wrestling," Regina said, chuckling. "The look on his face was absolutely priceless."

"Agreed," Emma said. "I do feel bad for beating him though. He had confidence."

"Where did that strength come from?" Regina asked. "I mean, obviously you have good physical ability from your old job, but since when could you easily defeat someone at arm wrestling?"

"Ever heard the phrase 'Fight Like a Girl'?" Emma asked. Regina nodded. "That's a lesson that I learned quickly. When life gets rough, you have to be prepared to fight."

"You were more than ready," Regina said, laughing. "You dominated our son. I don't think he'll ever challenge you to anything ever again. Won't want to risk the embarrassment that he'd most likely get from his sisters."

Emma smirked. "I think he learned his lesson. When you fight like a girl, you're hard to beat."

I appreciated all of the prompts, and thank you to everyone who gave them to me! I don't mean to sound picky, but I would love ones that don't involve the Swan-Mills family. I have an overabundance of those, and I would like to save them for when those stories happen. This story should be focused more on Emma and Regina. I promise there will be a story later for their family!
