A/N: Hey sorry I am late but I am in the middle of a swinging birthday bonanza. all three of my children have had b birthdays this past week and a half and I have been busy moming. Okay, back to this we get to visit with Henry a little. Enjoy!

The Arrangements

Regina

"Well…" Mary Margaret said opening the double doors to a room upstairs. "This is your room."

The room was extraordinary, It had a large four poster bed and wood paneling along one wall. Decorated richly in warm colors. It was a master bedroom, though I don't think it was THE master bedroom. It had feminine touches through out. "This is exquisite." I said looking around. Emma lived her life the way I had worked my entire life to become.

"Why Thank you." Mary Margaret said and looked at Emma who walked into the room with her hands in her sweatshirt pockets.

"So, uh… where's Emma's room?" I asked.

"Oh…" Mary Margaret said blushing a little. "we aren't of the illusion that you two … don't sleep in the same bed." She laughed.

I nodded "Oh… Okay. Glad we're clear on that." I looked at Emma.

"This is my childhood bedroom… well it's where I moved once Henry was born and he took my bedroom next door." Emma answered Lifting the duffel bag she had brought with her and pulled a toothbrush out.

"So I hope it is okay that she sleeps in here with you." Mary Margaret said with a laugh.

"Oh we're huge smugglers." I answered trying to make that sound normal.

"Huge." Emma stated and headed for the bathroom. Mary Margaret looked at her strangely because apparently Emma was not a smuggler. Huh, you learn something new everyday. I mean what girl doesn't like to snuggle?

Mommy Can you read me a story?" Henry said running into the room with a book. He stopped and looked at me. He looked around for his mother "Where is mommy?"

"Mommy is getting ready for bed honey, you should be in bed." Mary Margaret stated.

"Grammy I wanna be wif mommy." Henry stated

"Mommy and your new Momma here have to get settled Henry." Mary Margaret insisted. I blinked at the name momma I looked at the boy.

"You read to me?" He asked me. My eyes widened and I looked for Emma. "Please."

"Uh…" I started to stammer. "Sure." I stated his little face lit up at me and I looked up at Mary Margaret. "It's quite alright and Emma will be in shortly. I don't think it will do any harm."

Emma's mother smiled at me and nodded her goodnight. I looked down at the child with the big book in his arms that read Once Upon a Time on it's cover. Fairy tales. Emma has been reading him the classics. "which story would you like to hear?" I asked the child.

"The one with Princess Emma." He answered. I frowned I had never heard of that one.

"Show me." I said and watched as he flipped the pages. He pointed at a picture of a baby and I looked over the story quickly before beginning to read. It was apparently a sequel to Snow white and the seven dwarfs. I began to read and it was a story about while Snow ruled her kingdom and her stepmother the evil queen enacted some sort of curse but someone built a wardrobe to put Emma Snow White's new born into. But once the wardrobe had Emma within it The page after was missing.

Emma

I walked into the room and listened as Regina red Henry the story about snow white. She got to the part where Emma was put in the wardrobe and I moved toward them. "That page has been missing since I got the book. I still don't know why that's the Kid's favorite story." I stated sitting next to Henry on the bed.

She handed the book to Henry and stood. I'll just go Freshen up then." she said stoically. She had been so different with Henry. softer than I had ever seen her. more pliant and completely involved with the story.

I watched her go into the bathroom and Henry straddled my lap. He held my face in both his little hands and said. "Do you Lobe her mommy?"

My eyebrows shot up to my hairline. "why kid? Do you like her?"

"She reads really pretty. she makes cool voices like you do." Henry said and he put hi head down on my chest I know he is going to fall asleep in no time. "She's really pretty too. Mommy?"

"Yeah kid?"

"Can I sleep here with You and momma Gina?" He asked I looked up a Regina was coming out of the bathroom catching that last question. she nodded and turned to brush her hair before bed.

"Sure honey." I said and soon I heard his soft snores. I held him tightly against me and kissed the top of his head. I never wanted to miss another moment like this. "I'm bringing him home with me." I said softly as Regina walked back to the bed.

"I wouldn't dream of you leaving him behind. Especially since we are supposed to be starting a family it would be selfish." She looked at his face and reached a hand out to run her fingers through his hair and stopped herself. "He is a wonderful child."

I smiled and slid the sleeping boy off of my chest and on to the bed. He snuggled into me as I settled back into the pillows. My King sized bed was large enough to fit the three of us comfortably, But Regina didn't know whether she wanted to settle into the bed or walk across the room to the couch. "Just get in the bed, I know you won't touch me unless you have permission. I am not a homophobe." I stated.

She flinched. I guess she hadn't thought of me not actually being gay at all. Though I had. because why in the world was I allowing this to happen. Why was I playing this part. This woman was insufferable. yes she was my boss , but I didn't have to say yes to any of this.

She got into the bed and turned out the bedside lamp. "Good night Miss Swan." she said.

"Good night…" I answered and before I knew it I had fallen asleep.

Regina

She fell asleep quickly, and I was left alone with my thoughts. Up until now I hadn't allowed myself to think much about the fact that I've wanted to be in a position like this with Emma for as long as she had been working for me. Her and I (minus the toddler) in a bed together. I hadn't thought that she would reject me if I wanted her . Not that she had. But she isn't gay. By her life she has lived it is clear.

So the odds that the kiss we gave each other earlier that night did the same things to her that they did to me is highly unlikely. That Kiss… That kiss was electrifying. It is a sign that if I continue to kiss her, Emma swan could be my undoing.

I lay there awake that night, just looking at her peaceful face sleeping. I wanted to kiss her eyes open. I wanted to see something other than disdain come from her yes. I watched her sleep, until my eyes closed .

There was a ring from my phone. It woke me from my slumber to find myself wrapped tightly around Emma. Her eyes blinking sleepily at me and noticing the tangle of me on her. "sorry." I said.

I let go of her right away and started searching for the sound of my phone. "Where's Henry." Emma asked looking around as she sat up on the bed. There was a giggle a gurgle and a flush in the bathroom. That sprung me into action. I ran straight through to the bathroom where there was a giggling boy at the toilet bowl.

"What have you got there?" I asked peering into the bowl. "Oh my god… Oh my god."

Emma ran into the room. "What happened?" Emma asked peering over the bowl. "Henry!" She screamed and reached into the bowl to retrieve a soaked through phone.

"Belle was calling me I know she was, she is the only one that calls me this early." I said in hysterics.

"Don't worry, we will go into town buy you a new one okay?" Emma stated. "And you little boy, are in serious trouble." She led him out of the room and I suppose toward his own.

I looked at my ruined phone and sighed. I peeked out of the bedroom and down the hall as Emma stepped out of the adjoining room. "Hey, can I borrow your computer?" I asked.

"Help yourself." Emma said and headed down the stairs.

A/N: That was all we had a little family bonding time. I know this is for sure a super short chapter blame it on the parties or the fact that I wanted to make this room look more like her. I will be attempting to keep to a schedule for this story every Friday. Forgive me if sometimes it comes in later and most of the time with some horrible mistakes that I make and don't bother to look back at my errors. If you read this, and you love it please let me know in put a comment on the box below give me a review it feeds my soul. 'Til Next time, Much love!-S.K.
