Hi guys, thanks for reading! Let me know what you think and hope you enjoy! -hopelesslyhopeful7211
Regina opens the door of her apartment and fumbles through her bag for the contact information Emma gave her. She pulls out the small piece of paper with a smile and lays her bag on the marble counter top. Her apartment is in pristine condition. Every possession has a proper place. The white and black color scheme is highly sophisticated.
There's no need to be nervous. This is just about class work. She stares at the paper admiring the adorable, messy scribbles Emma wrote for her. Perhaps I should wait at least a couple hours. She reasons. She's probably not even home yet. It's only been thirty minutes. She moves into the kitchen to fix herself dinner. What will it be tonight? She sifts through the refrigerator and grabs a bag of salad mix and vinaigrette dressing. After pouring the mix in a bowl and dumping a moderate amount of salad dressing onto the mix she then settles in front of the television to begin the wait for an acceptable time to contact Emma.
Time moves slowly as Regina watches the second hand move on the large clock on the wall. Her eyes shift back and forth from the television and the clock. Her thoughts run wild with different scenarios involving the stunning blonde. How she should contact Emma. How to have a conversation with Emma. Being in the same room with Emma. Touching Emma? Yes, definitely touching Emma would be a plus. Her eyes truly focus on the television screen for the first time in well over an hour. There is a gold colored man on her screen exclaiming, "Magic always comes with a price, dearie!" while giggling hysterically. What am I watching right now? Back to the clock. Okay, two hours and three minutes. That's a perfectly random and acceptable amount of time, right?
She takes out her phone to compose her first message to the striking blonde.
"Hi Emma, it's Regina from class"
She stares at the message. Simple. Is it too simple? She makes an addition to her message.
"Hi Emma, it's Regina from class :)"
Regina contemplates. She might think that's too flirty. Do I want to be flirty? I should keep this more professional. For now anyway. She erases the smiley face addition and hits send.
"Party of two", Ruby responds to the host at a local seafood restaurant. The aroma of seafood is always somehow a bit unsettling, yet still enticing. Belle is standing by her side. The host gives them a pager and nonchalantly says, "It'll be about ten minutes". They head towards a bench in the lobby to wait. There's a tank of live lobsters next to the bench. The lobsters crawl all over each other. Their claws are tied together.
Belle points to the tank after watching them for a couple minutes. "It's a bit sad," she speaks up in the moderately busy restaurant lobby, "They're unable to be free".
"You're right," Ruby turns to watch the tank too while putting her arm around her girlfriend's shoulders, "I don't think I should've picked this restaurant," she lets out a small laugh, "Since Emma isn't tagging along I just thought this place was going to be a nice change from the usual fast food places".
"Anywhere is fine when I'm with you," Belle meets her gaze and gives Ruby's thigh a playful slap to indicate that there is no apology necessary.
"Regina, where are we going?" Emma is being dragged along by the wrist by the sultry brunette. Regina does not reply as she continues to drag Emma deeper into the woods. Emma stares at the woman holding onto her. They are moving fairly quickly, but she takes this moment to appreciate the view. Her eyes graze every inch of the woman's backside. She's wearing tight skinny jeans perfectly accentuating her assets. What wouldn't she give to caress every curve? Her fears and worries dissolve even though they near a body of water. She uses her free hand to tap Regina's shoulder. Regina turns around and stops them. Still holding onto her arm they stand just inches apart. Regina's deep brown eyes flicker down to Emma's lips and then back into her emerald eyes. Emma's eyes dilate as she acknowledges the arousal in Regina's eyes. She wets her lips with a slide of her tongue and feels emboldened to act. She moves her free hand up to graze Regina's cheek lightly. Regina leans into her hand. A shiver runs down her spine as she...
Emma startles awake with a gasp. Sweat beads cling to her chest. She thinks sarcastically. Sweat through my tank top, great. Her eyes roll back into her head. That dream…Her mind relives the moments. Can I go back? She sits up and notices the Cheetos bag spilled on the floor. More mess to clean up. She looks at her cheese dusted fingers and begins wiping them off on her jeans. After wiping off all the cheesy evidence on her fingers she picks up her phone. She notices two unread messages.
The first message is from an unfamiliar number.
"Hi Emma, it's Regina from class"
Emma grins brightly at her screen. She immediately adds the new contact: Regina. She composes her response.
"Hey, so what do you think about Monday around 4 in the library?"
She hits send and checks her other text. It is a picture of a close up on a bright red lobster in a tank. She notices other lobsters surrounding it all with their claws tied. The text underneath reads "You missed all the fun!"
She giggles while typing, "The fuck? Of course I did!"
She quickly takes a picture of the mess of Cheetos on the floor and her television screen showing Netflix then sends them to Ruby and Belle with the message, "I think I won most the fun evening though!"
