Hey babes! I'm very sorry for taking this long… I've been trying my best to write faster but the chapter was just not working for me.
The thing is, there's some scenes I want to give you guys but I also want to move on with the story.
I need to find a good middle between not having things go to fast and not having it start to be too boring either and it's not always that easy.
I truly hope the chapter turned out somewhat alright and you guys will have a good read.
As always, feel free to let me know what you think. It helps me greatly!
Now, here's what I came up with :O
CHAPTER 15
It's Monday afternoon and so far, Emma's done exactly what Regina's asked of her. She'd sat down and written.
Their conversations throughout the day had been fewer and further apart than usual…
But then again, before, Emma had been walking around the house wiping invisible dust from squeaky clean surfaces.
Whereas now, she's in her little writing cocoon, concentrating on getting her imagination on paper.
All the while… looking incredibly sexy, if you'd ask a certain brunette.
She hadn't even been phased when Regina had to make a couple of Skype calls. Dealing with some issues that needed to be handled by the boss herself.
A viewing day for a house in London had gone terribly wrong when one of the potential buyers had snorted and blatantly mentioned how he recognized the place from several popular porn movies. The rest of the candidate buyers present had obviously been put off by the idea of investing in a house where such activities had taken place and thus the result of the viewing day had turned out to be a big disaster where it should have been the gem of the week.
One bad viewing wasn't so much the problem… it was the rumors that surely would be spread, especially by the loud and obnoxious man that had opened his big mouth in the first place.
Her employee on location had made a big drama about the whole thing and most of Regina's job had entailed calming the stressed woman down
and telling her it would be okay.
This little incident held little threat to the company, but of course the woman in London had felt personally embarrassed.
Dealing with this and of course a lot of other stuff that were on her agenda she'd also made a quick phone call to Kathryn,
asking if she would be able and willing to go pick up Henry from school.
It would give her some extra time to deal with her work and deadlines so that, once her little prince was home…
she'd be able to give him her undivided attention.
Of course it hadn't been a problem and of course Kathryn had went to pick up the kid.
The moment she'd let herself in, he had first stormed towards his mom and thrown his arms around her neck as she hunched over in her chair,
happily returning the warm hug her son was treating her to.
"Mommy! There's a new girl in my class and I asked if she wanted to be my friend and she said that she did and now we're friends."
He grins wide and excited.
His mom has to really work hard to keep herself from laughing bubbly and loudly at her little boy's enthusiasm
about befriending a new girl he seems to have taken a liking to.
"How nice of you, sweetheart! She's a lucky girl to have a friend like you."
She sweetly tells him and rubs her nose Eskimo style against Henry's.
He giggles while she playfully tickles his sides.
"Emma!" The boy suddenly exclaims when he seems to have finally noticed the blonde girl smiling wide at the scene in front of her.
"Hey kid." She tells him as he's already making his way towards her.
There's no hesitation when she too gets pulled into a warm hug. Emma's momentarily taken off guard. It just feels so very domestic. All of this.
First watching Regina welcome the boy home from school and then being so warmly and effortlessly added to the equation.
"There's a new girl in my class and I asked her if she wanted to be my friend and she said she did and now we're friends." He says.
and Emma's almost entirely sure that was the exact same wording as before. Which probably means it has been on the tip of his tongue for a while now.
"Wow! That's great Hen! You can never have enough friends!"
She holds out her fist for him to bump, which he does and Regina can't help but snort in amusement- but tenderly so- at the action.
"I know!" He nods his head, that messy hair of his jumping all around.
"So, what's her name?" Emma then excitedly inquires.
"Grace and we also watched a movie in class today." He grins and has already moved onto the next subject.
Emma rolls her eyes and smiles wide while being dragged out of her chair.
"Oh yeah? A whole movie?" She asks him. Gasping loudly for his entertainment.
He laughs and shakes his head. "No! Not a whole movie!" Just a bit and then we'll see the rest tomorrow I think. Or Wednesday."
Henry further explains, by now having grabbed Emma's hand in his and leading her upstairs towards his bedroom where, she can already predict,
he's going to change into clothes his mom won't mind him sitting and playing on the ground in.
And just that small fact… just the fact that she can predict what little Henry's going to do first thing when he gets home from school,
makes Emma feel incredible.
Regina's dark eyes are glued to her two loves until they disappear in the ceiling.
"Henry told me Emma taught him how to pee while he's standing."
Kathryn questioningly speaks up, regarding her friend closely with furrowed eyebrows.
At some point she must have moved closer.
"Yeah, she's got a lot of hidden talents." Regina purses her lips and nods as she's pulled back to the here and now.
"That's a pretty weird talent to have." Kat snorts amused, lightly irritating Regina.
The brunette rolls her eyes and shrugs dismissively.
"She's incredible with him and he absolutely adores her.
The fact that he trusts her enough to let her teach him such a thing is very positive and I couldn't be more grateful." She tells the blonde determinedly.
Hearing her friend's tone makes Kathryn's features soften instantly.
"She's family material, isn't she?" She says.
Regina purses her lips, blushes and smiles. "I believe she is."
"Well your family is beautiful, Regina."
Days pass. Ten of them. A couple of days ago Henry'd started counting down to this one. His birthday.
The moment Emma'd taken knowledge of the boy's approaching special day the gears in her head had started turning.
"Soooo, Henry's birthday…" She casually starts while excitedly looking at Regina.
"What about it?"
The woman gives her a cute smile and tilts her head a little, pausing the motion of bringing her sandwich within bite-range to give Emma her full attention.
"Do you guys have plans yet?" The blonde's green eyes are wide and twinkling gorgeously.
"Something fun but we've yet to decide what. but you'll be here, right?" Regina puts her food down and chuckles at the girl's obvious enthusiasm.
Can she be any more perfect for their family?
"You want me to?"
When sudden insecurity sneaks up on her and she starts to worry her lower lip between her teeth, Regina reaches forward and places her hand onto Emma's.
"Emma… come on… of course…"
"Okay…" The girl nods and returns to smiling before saying "Can I make a suggestion?"
"What is it?" The brunette nods encouragingly while closely appreciating the beautiful girl next to her.
"Can I arrange his day?" Emma asks, surprising Regina entirely. It's only natural she smiles as wide as her heart feels warm.
"You'd do that?" She asks her girlfriend while nodding her obvious approval of the girl's suggestion.
"Oh god yeah I'd love to!" Emma's face lights up even more.
And well, she'd really gone all out. By the time H-day had come around, she'd made sure everything was in order and absolutely perfect for her little man.
Her little man. Those words have been making Emma smile a lot these days… but not in the least because they're funny…
"This is…"
"It needs a little make believe but I tr"
"Sweetheart it's amazing…" Regina had stared at her in wonder.
Henry'd been speechless. After Emma had removed his blindfold she'd watched his little features turn wide.
He'd gasped loudly and then thrown himself into the sea of blankets and pillows laid out in front of him.
Regina hadn't been quite sure how she'd done it,
but Emma had succeeded in turning her and Ruby's entire apartment into what looked like some kind of spaceship, shuttle? perhaps a milky-way?
Something space related.
Regardless of what exactly the place was supposed to look like…
it clearly was successfully tapping into Henry's imagination and Regina couldn't have loved Emma more for that.
"Welcome to my place." Emma's chuckled and wrapped her arms around her girlfriend's middle.
Quickly pecking the older woman's lips before releasing her again and getting on her knees, ready to take orders from Captain H. Mills.
Regina'd let her eyes wander a little longer. Dark blankets were splayed out everywhere. Some 90ies lava lamps were doing their thing,
little white Christmas lights were making an early appearance and several seemingly random objects were wrapped in miles of aluminum foil.
Very soon, Regina'd found herself on the ground drawing little glittery stars onto plain sneakers,
with special textile sharpies Emma'd pulled out for them to go wild with.
It's clear the girl had really thought this through… cared so deeply for what would make Henry happy and put a lot of effort into making it happen.
"Cake time!" She'd suddenly announced. "Or should I say…special space-cake time"
and playfully wiggled her eyebrows after turning towards Regina and offering the brunette a quick wink.
"Miss Swan" She'd pointedly warned "That cake better not be as special as it sounds." both of her pretty eye brows were raised expectantly.
Emma'd chuckled and shaken her head. "Do I seem like the kind of person that would give a five year old pot?"
Upon realizing that the older woman's expression hadn't changed at all yet Emma'd scoffed,
feeling slightly offended until Regina's face had turned into a beautiful smile as the woman offered her a playful wink of her own.
Of course the only special thing about the cake had been that it consisted of several bright colors and the fact that it had been both homemade and edible, tasteful even, Regina'd further teased. Henry had eaten several small pieces… making sure he'd at least had a bite of every color in there.
They'd had pizza for dinner, which admittedly wasn't all that space-y… but it had been delicious and thus passed as the perfect birthday food.
Another helping of multicolored cake, some more goofing around and Henry'd visibly started struggling to keep his eyes open.
When his mother suggested they should get ready to leave, the boy had pouted so heartbreakingly cute,
Emma'd easily relented and dragged Ruby's mattress into their own little universe (her long legged friend wasn't coming home anyway),
put some more pillows and blankets over it and suggested they'd tug the boy in right there.
Which is exactly what happened.
She'd told the Mills family a short bedtime story before Henry's breathing had evened out and he'd turned onto his side and fallen asleep.
Now, Regina's the first one to get up and stretch out her legs before Emma can feel her leave the room.
Emma turns her upper body to check where her girlfriend's going… and of course, upon seeing Regina enter her bedroom she can't help but grin.
The girl gets up, blushes and then silently considers that maybe Regina's just using the bathroom…
When she sees warm light emerging from her open door she figures her girlfriend might actually be getting comfortable.
She turns around one last time, making sure little Henry's fast asleep,
quickly turns off the make shift star-filled sky but leaves on her trusted pink lava lamp and then makes her way towards her lover.
Upon entering the dimly lit space, Emma's mouth falls open as her eyes are transfixed on the beauty in front of her.
As if on queue Regina pulls her shirt over her head and immediately takes off her bra after.
Emma's lost all sense of speech as all of the blood in her body is rushing towards both of her cheeks and lower region…
Regina's sitting at the head of her bed. Already wearing nothing but a pair of white lace panties.
On the edge of self-combusting Emma seems to magically regain at least some power over her actions.
She clumsily reaches for the doorknob behind her and as quietly as possible closes the door.
By the time she can refocus entirely on Regina the gorgeous woman is smirking so deliciously sexy
while dragging that sinful piece of lace down those impossibly smooth legs of hers.
Emma's dark green -more dark than green- eyes trace every piece of gorgeousness in front of her.
Arms, hands, legs, knees, calves, feet, thighs, shoulders, breasts, stomach, pussy, chin, eyes… oh god those eyes.
"Come here you." Regina softly and raspily suggests for the blonde girl to accompany her.
The come hither movement she makes with her finger and the amazing look of longing directed at the young woman work their magnetic powers instantly
as Emma's drawn in effortlessly.
The girl hungrily crawls forward on hands and knees from the foot of her bed towards the person around which her own personal universe revolves.
Suddenly aware of how her excited and still growing member is straining against her pants,
Emma reaches down her own body and frees herself from her restrains. Kicking off her pants and getting closer to her girl. her woman.
The moment she's able to connect their lips and touch this beautiful creature,
Emma's entirely unable of containing herself any longer and urgently though gently starts rubbing herself against Regina,
creating delicious friction against both of their most sensitive parts.
"Take everything off, darling." Regina eagerly breathes into her mouth… wanting for both of them to be equally and fully naked.
Emma's soft chuckling is combined with hard breathing, as she pulls back, nods and instantly follows up on her girlfriend's request.
Taking off her shirt and bra before leaning back in and continuing expressing her feelings.
Parted lips brush across soft skin that's covered with goosebumps. Emma sweetly whimpers upon feeling how hard she is against Regina.
The latter captures her lips and urgently sucks on them, wanting to draw all of this golden beauty in as fast as possible.
Her fingertips pleadingly graze against those strong biceps of Emma's as she spreads her legs a little wider,
creating more space for the younger woman to move against and -hopefully soon- in her.
Suddenly Emma quietly groans and draws back from their heated make out session with an apologetic pout.
"All of our condoms are at your place." She mutters, feeling annoyed with herself.
Regina silently and slowly inhales several times, studies Emma's face closely and thinking about what to say.
"You can just pull out again, right?" She whispers carefully.
"You know it's not 100% safe, right?" Emma tenderly inquires.
Nodding and blushing feverishly Regina licks her lips and bites the lower one a little uncertain.
Not of how she feels but of how Emma might be feeling about not being 100% safe.
Emma sighs softly and offers her girlfriend a -what she hopes looks like- reassuring smile.
"Okay… well, it's cool with me but you know we're gonna have to talk ab"
Regina's insistent nodding is what interrupts Emma from finishing her sentence.
"We will… I just wanna make love right now." and just the need behind those words is what steals Emma's breath and makes her give into their closeness.
A hum filled with need and shivers of the best kind running down her spine consume the girl
while she reaches down between their bodies to position the head of her excited member properly at her lover's warm and welcoming entrance.
One moment Regina's eyes follow the movement of the blonde's hand, the other they flicker up to connect with dark emeralds.
She whimpers when being entered slowly before Emma starts moving in and out of her. Wet folds hug her throbbing shaft tightly.
Regina's breathing is soft and hot and she has trouble keeping her eyes open while she can feel herself become increasingly wet by Emma's sweet movements.
"Fuck." she utters quietly at feeling the girl's speed go up and enjoying that so thoroughly.
Emma reaches for the outside of her girlfriend's left thigh and massages it encouragingly for her to continue moving so amazingly in tandem with her.
Pushing her pelvis up when she goes as deep as possible.
When both of their breaths speed up and both of their movements become hasted and grow uncontrolled,
Emma's big green eyes glaze over before she leans forward, pressing their sensitive chests together.
Each of their nipples stimulating the other's further as Emma is balls deep inside of the older woman,
giving her one last thrust before closing her eyes tightly and willing herself to pull out.
She feels how her girl is shivering as she retracts her now very close to ejaculating member
and places two fingers of her right hand onto the brunette's beautifully enlarged red clit as it glistens with need in the dimly lit room.
She simultaneously wraps her left hand around her cock and with steady jerks, pulls both of them over the edge.
Regina's eyes are closed at first but then she wills them open to watch her blonde girlfriend pleasure them both so skilfully.
She comes hard and apparently Emma does too. and it's perfect.
Emma spills her seed onto her own hand and a little onto Regina's belly.
Honestly...? The older woman loves feeling just that as the last vibrations of her own orgasm course through her body
while Emma's fingers now only practice a little bit of pressure onto her clitoris, bringing her down from her high slowly and gently.
She feels her pussy spasm, obviously preferring the feeling of cumming around her girlfriend above anything
but also feeling so very amazing at the realization of her body noticing the absence.
"God, I'm still hard." Emma snorts softly before eying the older woman mischievously.
The latter gives her a cute smile in return but then tells her apologetically.
"I'm sorry darling, I don't think I can take a second round right now."
"That's okay. Don't worry about it."
The blonde shrugs and smiles sweetly and reassuringly, settling her body alongside Regina's while making herself calm down.
"That doesn't mean we can't give you some more attention…"
The brunette hotly whispers, carefully wraps her fingers around Emma's penis and slowly starts to jerk her off.
Sliding effortlessly around and up and down the stiff member as both Emma's cum and her own juices coat the girl's erection.
It creates sticky noises that further turn Emma on and help her near her edge.
Regina seems to be concentrating hard on giving her as much pleasure as possible.
Gripping her a little tighter at her base and tip and changing speed every now and then.
The older woman is biting her lip while concentrating and Emma can't decide on whether she wants to look at that look of determination
or the hand pumping her cock. She's completely torn and time is running out. Quickly.
"Oh fuck, baby I'm so close. Don't stop."
"Wasn't planning on it." Regina chuckles warmly and kisses Emma's cheek before continuing to bite her lip and focus on her task at hand. -pun intended-
Her wrist is getting quite tired and she's actually relieved to hear Emma's close to cumming because of the sore feeling in her muscles.
But that doesn't mean she can't give a little extra effort for the grand finale.
Twisting her hand along Emma's entire length and pumping her a little harder and faster she can practically feel her girlfriend's cock tipping over the edge
as it grows as rigid as it can ever be and starts pulsating while spurting warm fluid from the tip.
Sliding her palm up and down a couple more times and gathering whatever runs out of the throbbing head and down the shaft,
Regina sighs content while enjoying Emma's deep breaths near her cheek and slowly feeling the girl's sex grow soft and flaccid underneath her fingers.
"You have no idea how good that felt. Thank you so much. I swear you're the sexiest and most beautiful creature ever."
Emma sighs, sounding completely spent and satisfied.
A deep and warm chuckle escapes Regina's lips before they spread out into a smile. "I'm happy you liked it, darling. I did my best for you."
She says and pretty quickly after kisses Emma softy and tenderly on the lips.
She's a little amused but not necessarily surprised when not much later,
Emma pulls a piece of tissue from the drawer next to her bed and cleans both of their skins.
"Resourceful are we?" She sweetly smiles wide and puts a piece of stray gold behind her girlfriend's ear.
Emma chuckles and nods. "hmm" An obviously habitual toss lands the balled up tissue into a nearby bin and Emma once again,
makes herself comfortable against the brunette's side.
She presses her nude and still sensitive body against Regina's and lets them hum in their delicious afterglow together.
And it's good because it's as if their energies always recognize each other. Tapping into the other's pleasure, enhancing it further and making it last.
Like now… the blissful feeling lasts… even after, not much later, both of them fall asleep.
When, after a couple of hours, one of them slowly wakes up from the nightly chill that's making them shiver slightly,
it doesn't take long for the other to rise as well.
Both pull on shirts before cuddling close again. The comforter's pulled up to their noses and Emma's arm is wrapped around her girl's frame.
The younger woman rubs her nose against Regina's cheek, searching for kisses easily found.
"Thank you for having us over." Regina's sleep-laced voice is music to the blonde's ears.
"Of course… you guys have me over all the time." Emma smiles against full lips.
"Of course… we want you around us as much as possible." Regina shrugs while sincerely telling the younger woman.
"I wanna be around you guys as much as possible." the latter breathes out and oh man… how she means that…
Dark brown eyes narrow a little while Regina seems to be softly biting her lip and then speaks up again.
"Kathryn said something."
"Oh?" Emma's intrigued to hear whatever Kathryn might have said that could be of any relevance right now.
"Ruby told her you're moving out." Regina calmly says, studying her girlfriend's face closely.
"She did?" Two blonde brows arch.
"You're not leaving, are you?" That usually thick and warm voice sounds so insecure and small that it breaks Emma's heart so painfully
she tightens her grip on Regina's body instantly as her eyes and mouth go wide.
"What? No of course not!" and quickly tells her.
"You'd tell me, right?" Regina eyes her hopefully…
"Regina… I'm not leaving…" Emma smiles sweetly and shakes her head from side to side. "I didn't even really say that I'm moving out…" She softly adds.
"Then why would Ruby say that?" Regina furrows her eyebrows and pouts, feeling a little silly now.
Emma's silent at first, swallows, sighs, blushes and clears her throat before starting to share.
"She and I talked about… about how I feel… about how I hurt when I have to leave you guys… and I guess she jumped to conclusions."
It's cute how she murmurs the admission,
clearly feeling vulnerable and at least a bit nervous if her fumbling hands against Regina's stomach are anything to go by.
"You know I feel the same way, right? Henry too." Regina tells her warmly. "We hate it when you leave."
"You do?" Emma quietly mumbles, a smile sneaking it's way onto those pretty pink lips of hers and Regina can't help but smile brightly and nod.
"Emma?" She whispers. Eye contact unwavering.
"What?" Emma whispers back equally soft.
"Can you sense what I'm about to ask?"
Regina offers her a tiny smile, now blushing as well… as she can feel her heart pounding and her own vulnerability come to the surface.
"I don't know…" The blonde breathes out as her eyes repeatedly make quick scans of Regina's entire face. Eyes, lips, eyebrows, nostrils, cheeks, forehead… everything gets analyzed. "Maybe"
"What would your answer be to the question you think I'm about to ask."
Regina smirks a little as she cheekily inquires, causing for Emma to chuckle softly.
It's kind of relieving some of the lingering tension in the cool bedroom that has gradually begun to feel warmer.
"Yeah." Emma quietly draws out the word while inching her face closer towards the brunette's again.
"Yes?" Regina's entire face perks up. Doubt and insecurity gone as she stares at Emma in awe and wonder.
"Yeah… I'd really love some cake for breakfast." Emma nods, hoarsely chuckles and just completely ruins this amazing moment, doesn't she?
Well, maybe… ruins is a big word but it does earn her a glare and an annoyed slap to the arm she's holding her Regina with.
"You're such an idiot." The woman rolls her eyes and snorts before looking away and huffing a couple more times.
"Regina…" Emma sweetly says with a voice that betrays her radiant smile.
"What?" A dark eyebrow is pulled up high as Regina's giving her a pointed gaze. The look the woman gets in return is completely void of cheekiness though. There's also a clear absence of insecurity and fear as Emma eyes her lovingly and admits.
"I would love to live with you guys."
I'm working on the next chapter! Really hope I'm not letting anyone down. You guys are so sweet!
