This chapter is for Samantha S Dracul with the prompt: "Hook and Emma are engaged, but Emma is not sure yet to marry. Zelena realizes that Regina and Emma feel something strong between them, so she manages to cause several situations where they stay together and so realize that they love each other."
"The point is to keep that on your finger," Regina said, walking into Emma's office.
Emma jumped, quickly putting her engagement ring back onto her finger. "Right."
Regina looked at her in concern. "Are you okay? You look like you're thinking hard about something."
"Just the whole getting married thing," Emma said. "It's kind of crazy."
"You're having second thoughts?" Regina asked. She tried not to sound too excited. It wasn't that she didn't want Emma to marry Hook but...oh who was she kidding. She didn't want Emma to marry Hook.
"Something like that," Emma said. "It's not that I don't want to get married. I've always dreamed about getting married. I just want it to be with the...right person."
Regina sat on the edge of Emma's desk. "And you're not sure that Hook's the one?"
Emma sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. "I don't know what I'm sure of."
Zelena smiled from her hiding spot around the corner. She already knew that Regina had feelings for Emma because they had talked about it before. One of their "sisterly bonding moments". But it seemed clear now that Emma had feelings for Regina. Time for a little push.
"What's going on?" Regina asked, walking hesitantly into Emma's house.
"It's raining. In my house," Emma said. She was soaked to the bone, and looked ready to murder someone.
Regina bit the inside of her cheek to keep from laughing. "Why don't you just get rid of it?"
"I tried," Emma said. "For some reason it won't go away whenever I try."
Regina smiled before flicking her wrist, instantly getting rid of the storms. "There. All better. Do you have clothes to change into?"
"Nope," Emma said. "Everything is still in boxes, and whatever isn't in boxes is soaked by the storm."
Regina laughed before grabbing Emma's wrist and poofing them to her room. "I'm sure I have something to fit you."
"I highly doubt that," Emma said.
"Really?" Regina asked, pulling a pair a sweatpants and a sweatshirt out of the closet. "I have some clothes for comfort. Looks like they finally came in handy."
"Thanks," Emma said, taking the clothes from her. "I'll just go get changed."
Regina watched Emma go into the bathroom before shaking her head and smiling. What a turn this day had taken.
"Sweatshirt and sweatpants?" David asked, walking into work the next morning. "Interesting outfit choice."
"All of my other clothes are in boxes or soaked," Emma said. "I had to borrow clothes from Regina."
"Regina owns comfort clothes?" David asked in surprise.
Emma laughed. "I guess so."
"Are you alright love?" Hook asked, walking into Emma's office. "I heard about what happened last night. Where did you stay?"
"At Regina's," Emma said.
"I see," Hook said. "Well at least it was warm. If you need someplace to stay, let me know. Okay?"
"I think I'll be okay," Emma said. "Regina and I are going to clean up everything later this afternoon."
Hook went to say something but was cut off by David. "Sorry to interrupt, but we have to go. Someone decided to start drinking a little early."
"Damn it Leroy," Emma said, getting up.
"It isn't Leroy," David said. "It's Zelena."
"Well this certainly is interesting," Emma said, guiding Zelena to the sheriff's car. "You don't seem like a drinker."
"Oh I'm usually not," Zelena said. "I just needed to get a little buzzed."
"Why?" Emma asked.
"To do this," Zelena said. She used her magic to push Emma away from her, flinging her into the air and directly into the path of a light pole.
"Emma!" David shouted, running over to her.
"I'm fine," Emma said, groaning. "Get Zelena to the station and put that stupid magic cuff on her. That's more important."
"I need to call someone to help you," David said. "I'll get Hook for you."
"No, don't," Emma said. "I don't want him. Call Regina."
"Regina?" David asked. "But-"
"Emma?" Regina called, running over and crouching beside her. "What the hell happened?"
"How did you know to come here?" Emma asked.
"Zelena called and said that you were in some kind of trouble a few minutes ago," Regina said. "Sorry it took so long for me to get here. I had to convince Henry to let me go alone."
"She called you?" David asked. "Why would she do that?"
"Because she knew that I would want to help," Regina said slowly. "Why else?"
"She's the one that threw me against this pole," Emma said. Her eyes widened and she quickly rolled to the side, throwing up on the sidewalk.
"You take Zelena to the station, I'll take Emma to the hospital," Regina said. David looked like he was going to argue before nodding and getting up, quickly driving away.
"Come on," Regina said, wrapping one of Emma's arms around her shoulders and helping her stand up. She poofed them both to the hospital, quickly passing her off to Dr. Whale for examination.
"You don't need to do this," Emma said, allowing Regina to help her into her house.
"Whale said that someone needs to monitor you overnight," Regina said. "I'll gladly take that role on."
Emma huffed out a laugh. "Thanks. I think."
Regina smiled. "So why did you ask for me instead of Hook? You would think you would want him at your side."
"I don't know," Emma mumbled. Her shoe got caught on one of the stairs, causing her to trip forward. Regina quickly wrapped both of her arms around Emma, pulling her back to her feet. Emma looked at Regina, quickly realizing how close they were.
Several beats of silence passed before Emma leaned forward and lightly kissed Regina. Regina tensed in shock before kissing her back.
They pulled apart only when air was necessary, Emma instantly smiling. Regina smiled back at her before chuckling. "Were you doing that or is the concussion making you not think straight?"
"This is why I've been having second thoughts about marrying Hook," Emma admitted. "I don't love Hook. I love you."
"I love you too," Regina said, kissing her again. "So...I'm guessing the wedding is off?"
Emma laughed. "The wedding is off."
