So here is chapter 6! Been writing like crazy for the past half hour. It's also 1am so I apologize for any mistakes. But I had a flow going and I didn't want to stop.
I do not own OUAT...
Chapter named after this song: Gorgeous by Idina Menzel
"When all of the beauty turns to pain
When all of the madness falls like rain
As long as we crash and we collide
We will be gorgeous, you and I."
ENJOY!
Btw thanks to BellaDora Soulmates for the 'prompt' I legit had no idea what to write about and then you came with an idea! THANK YOU!
As they had gotten inside Regina had insisted that they should take a shower. Mal who was exhausted after their adventures had protested but Regina had dragged her into the bathroom anyways babbling about something like "if you do not take a shower you'll end up getting sick." something Mal had rolled her eyes on. How could Regina know that she would get sick? Why is she being so annoying. But Mal had gotten into the shower anyways not as long as Regina had wanted. Mal sat down on the toilet waiting for Regina to finish.
Regina got out and was about to wrap a towel around her body when Mal stopped her and moaned.
"So fucking gorgeous!" She exclaimed.
Regina blushed and giggled, leaning in kissing Mal on the lips.
"Ever seen yourself in the mirror?" Regina beamed.
Mal wrapped her arms around Regina, standing there in front the mirror in the bathroom.
"I guess I have." Mal answered with a laugh.
"But the question is, have you?"
Regina thought hard, she knew what Maleficent meant but she really hadn't thought about exactly that. Sure she had seen herself in the mirror several times, constantly making sure she's looking her best self. But had she ever appreciated the beauty she saw in the mirror? She was pretty sure she had not. Now she was standing in front of the mirror with Mal's arms wrapped around her, she really was gorgeous. Regina had always had self esteem she never questioned her body, maybe because she had always checked out if her outfit was on point but never actually stood in front of the mirror naked. It was terrifying, like really really horrible. Regina started shaking, she knew she was beautiful but she was starting to question her own thoughts.
Mal catching up on Regina's shaking steading her and whispering sweet words in her ear, seeing that it isn't helping she turned the brunette around and looked into her eyes that were filling with tears.
"Hey hey. No, no Gina! Listen to me! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! YOU'RE GORGEOUS, YOU'RE HOT AND YOU ARE EVERYTHING I WANT!"
She pulled her in for a hug, Regina clinging to her for dear life. Mal rubbed Regina's back and hugging her tight, seeing that it helped and Regina's breath started to even out.
"Hey, has anyone ever told you that you were ugly?" Mal asked.
"No." Regina answered.
"See you have nothing to be insecure about. Definitely not now when you have me. Because as long as I tell you you're beautiful, gorgeous and hot you'll always stay beautiful, gorgeous and hot. Okay?"
Regina smiled.
"Thank you."
Mal kissed Regina on the lips, and then they headed for bed. Crawling in Mal scotched closer to Regina and hugged her tight and they soon drifted off to a blissful state of sleep.
Mal woke up Saturday morning regretting not staying in the shower longer as Regina had told her to do. She was about to say something to Regina when she sneezed, not once, not twice but three times.
"Good Morning to you too!" Regina laughed.
"It's not funny!"
"Oh, honey it's hilarious. Didn't I tell you to stay longer in the shower?"
"Yes." Mal pouted. She hated being sick, she didn't get sick often but when she did it was horrible.
"I'm pretty sure you're regretting your actions now aren't you?"
"Yeah…"
Regina got up and got dressed. Mal started shivering out of loss of Regina's body, pulling the comforter closer.
"If you try to get some more sleep and I'll go downstairs to make you breakfast."
"Okay." Mal lied back down and drifted off soon enough.
Regina full up on making her sick Mal some breakfast ran her hand through her hair.
"So I know she likes those blueberry pancakes…"
Regina got the ingredients and started making the pancakes.
40 minutes later she was all done, putting everything on a brick and headed upstairs again to a sleeping Mal.
She put down the brick on the end of the bed and walked over to Mal.
"Hey, honey. You up for something to eat?" Mal looked up, still obviously exhausted.
"Yeah, I think so."
Regina smiled she got up and took the brick and sat down on the other side of the bed.
"You made me blueberry pancakes?" Mal smiled.
"Yeah, I thought it would make you feel a little better."
They ate in silence, Mal eating more then she thought she could handle, being sick and all.
Regina had put the brick on a table next to the bed and laid down on the bed, putting Mal's head on her chest.
"I hate this!" Maleficent exclaimed.
Regina looked down.
"Why?" She asked while playing with Mal's hair.
"We were supposed to look for our child."
"Aww honey. But we'll still have time to do that when you're feeling better. Right now you should focus on getting better, because if we look for it now while you're sick it can make you feel worse."
Mal looked up at Regina with a sad expression.
"I know, I just want to know if it's okay, and where it is and…"
"I know you do, so do I. But right now the only thing I care about is getting you to feel better."
Mal smiled, she knew Regina wanted the best for her, but it still made her sad not knowing where their baby is. She wished she didn't have to stay sick for long. She looked back at Regina who looked at her.
"You're good at this…"
"Good at what?"
"Making someone feel better, taking care of them when they're sick or feeling sad. You're definitely mother materiel."
"I guess that happens when you raise a son for 10 years." Regina smiled going through her memories with Henry.
"Yeah. I wonder if I would have been any good."
"Of course you would. You don't remember last night when I became insecure naked in front of the mirror? You have no idea how good you are at making someone feel secure again." Regina beamed.
Maleficent smiled.
"I'm also pretty sure we'll see soon enough how amazing of a mother you are." Regina assured.
"I hope so."
By Wednesday Mal felt so much better. They had spent the last couple of days snuggled up in bed with lots of movies. Regina ending up showing Mal the Disney version of themselves, making Mal laugh in disbelief.
Mal had woken up first, watching Regina sleep. So peaceful, so adorable, so gorgeous.
"Good Morning sunshine." She sang as she kissed Regina on the forehead.
"Good Morning yourself."
They snuggled closer.
"Are you feeling any better today?" Regina asked curiously.
"Actually I do," Mal smirked.
"and I got something special planned for you!"
Regina did not liked the sound of that but went with it.
Regina had no idea what Mal had planned, but she did call it Mal's Day of Fun. Which would either mean, full speed all day or a lot of sex. Regina was definitely hoping for the second one.
Until next time :*
