Love, Fate And Magic

A/N: Ahoy ya'll! I'm trying to keep on top of updating and so far I'm succeeding at this! Whether it will last who knows, but I hope to get another chapter out this weekend! I wrote most of this on the bus going from college which proved pretty effective so that might make updates quicker.

Chapter 14- Smiling Is Good For The Soul

Regina burst through her front door, slamming it shut behind her as she shook the rain from her umbrella. The mayor had attempted to continue working after the dramatic visit from Morgan, but had given up, opting to return home to try and clear her head.

Regina cast a glance back at the rain now ponding against the window, frowning at the sudden weather change. She sighed as she pulled off her coat and moved further into the quiet house, her eyes roaming around for signs of Henry.

"Henry?" She called out.

"What?" Said another voice from the den, their tone harsh. Regina made her way towards the voice, walking into the den to spot her son sprawled on the sofa, buried in a comic book.

"What have I told you about sitting like that?" Regina snapped, frowning at the younger boy.

"Don't do it?" He replied vaguely, not looking up at his disapproving mother.

"And what are you doing?"

"Doing it" Henry sassed, a smirk on his face making Regina's temper rise.

"I don't have the energy for this." The brunette muttered, scowling at her son. "You better have done your homework."

"I have."

"Good, now I'm going to start dinner. I expect you to wash up and to take off that uniform before its served." Henry didn't reply, merely giving a nod of understanding.

After dinner, Regina sent Henry up to his room to get ready for bed, as always going through the usual pre-bed time drama.

The mayor dropped down the wash cloth, turning to lean against the counter for a moment. She had been itching to hide away in her room the moment she got a home, desperate to put her plan into action.

Putting away the last plates, the mayor promptly left the kitchen and headed upstairs to check on Henry, who she found already in bed, snuggled down reading a book. Regina treasured moments like this when he wasn't fighting her like the rest of the time. In this moment he was her sweet little boy again.

"I'll see you in the morning my love." Regina cooed to Henry, who sent her a small smile before turning to switch off the light. The brunette gently closed the door before zipping off down the corridor towards her room.

Once inside, the brunette shut and locked the bedroom door, before whisking off towards the hidden safe in the wall. Pushing the picture frame aside, Regina hastily fumbled with the dial on the safe, wrenching the small safe open, her eyes landing on the gently beating heart.

Reaching in, she carefully took hold of the fragile heart, lifting it out and cradling it in her hands. Regina backed away from the safe and towards the bed, sitting down heavily as she stared at the heart.

"You had to make things difficult didn't you?" She hissed at the heart, running the pad of her thumb over it as she spoke. "I don't know why I thought I could tame you. You've always been a runner."

Regina lifted the organ a little higher, looking at it carefully. She had long since memorised it's form, each curve and mark on its surface. Her eyes landed on the crack running along the side, anger rushing through her as she glared at the mark.

"I should have kept you closer, if I had I would have seen all this before it got out control!" The brunettes grip briefly tightened on the heart, but Regina quickly loosened her grip. She pulled the heart close to her own, rocking back and forth gently. "I tried to be what you wanted me to be, but I can't. But I will not let you go again, I need you."

Regina lifted the heart to her lips, closing her eyes as she thought of her command. A loud clap of thunder made the mayor pull back from the heart, her own beating a mile a minute.

"No, I can't do this." She lowered her hand down, it shook almost violently. Regina stood from the bed and walked back over to the safe, placing the heart back inside and locking it again. Emma would never forgive her for this, even if she never remembered.

"Perhaps we should take this inside?"

"Absolutely."

Emma barely managed to give an answer before she was tugged inside the mansion, and slammed against the door, Regina's lips returning to hers. They passionately kissed for a while, Emma's hands remained on Regina's hips, whose hands were still threaded in wet hair. The blonde could barely wrap her head around what was happening, her body felt like it was on fire, her skin searing where ever Regina touched her.

Emma moaned when she felt a tongue push into her mouth, seeking out her own. Regina pushed the sheriff harder into the door, their bodies moulding together like a puzzle piece. Emma felt a skilled hand tugging at her shirt, while the other glided over her smooth stomach. Regina moaned when the blonde grinded into her, desperately trying to get Regina to touch her lower.

Emma whined loudly when she felt Regina step away, and she stared at her confused, her head tilted to the side.

"What are you doing?" The blonde asked, watching as Regina grinned seductively at her.

"You're soaking wet darling." The brunette whispered, and Emma felt a flood of arousal shoot through her at the pet name.

"I know." Emma tried reaching for Regina again, but frowned when the brunette shook her head, an amused look on her face.

"No, I mean you're going to catch a cold if you stay in those clothes." The blonde looked down at her wet clothes, then back up at Regina.

"Oh." She said mumbled, making the brunette chuckle.

"Come, you'll need to shower to warm up."

"Can't you warm me up instead?" Emma asked hopefully, and received a playful smile in return.

"Oh I will."

Regina led Emma up the stairs towards the master bedroom, passing Henry's room as they did. The blonde paused next to it, wondering if the boy was still awake. She felt a hand wrap around her arm and pull her along the corridor.

"You'll see him in the morning… If you stay that is." Regina whispered to the blonde as she pushed open the bedroom door, revealing the huge room inside. The mayor let go of Emma's arm and disappeared off into the en suite, while the blonde stared around the room, taking in its stylish design.

She heard the sound of water being turned on and walked towards the en suite, noticing a funny picture along the way. She paused to look at it. The picture was of dandelions, bright yellow ones, making Emma frown. She glanced around the rest of the room, noting how none of the other art work seemed to radiate as much colour as this one did. Emma began to reach out to the picture but pulled back when Regina spoke next to her.

"Why don't you hop in while I find you some dry clothes." The mayor said an odd look on her face. Emma smiled and nodded, slipping past the brunette into the bathroom.

"Sure." The blonde turned to see if Regina was going to join her.

"I'll be right back." She said quietly, before walking out of the bathroom and back into the bedroom. Emma shrugged and pulled off the wet clothes, placing them neatly on the side of the bath and climbed into the shower. She had a feeling it was going to be a long night.

Regina pulled out some dry clothes for the blonde from her draw, frowning to herself as she did. It had to be a coincidence that the only thing in the room that drew Emma's attention was the picture hiding her heart. She pushed the thoughts aside, wishing to focus on the situation at hand.

The sound of the shower door closing made the brunette stand straight again, her feet seemed to move towards the en suite by their own accord. She knew things were heating up quickly down stairs, and had wanted to bring them up here.

Regina poked her head around the door, frowning when she was unable to see Emma in the shower due to the condensation on the glass door. The brunette quickly placed the clothes down, before walking up to the shower.

"I've found you some clothes and left them onto the hamper." Regina said, watching as the silhouette of Emma's body turned in the shower to face her.

"Ah great, thanks." She heard Emma say. "This is a very nice shower."

"It is." Regina responded vaguely, distracted by a hand that was now pressed against the glass door. Instinctively, the brunette placed her own hand over it. She could feel the heat from the hand through the glass, and yearned to be able to touch it in person.

"Regina?"

"Hmm."

"Would you like to join me?" The mayor almost ripped her clothing off at the speed she tried to get into the shower. She left them strewn across the bathroom, something she had never done before as she climbed into the shower.

Regina gasped when she finally saw Emma again. Water was streaming down her body, leaving hundreds of little droplets clinging to her back. The blonde turned to look at Regina, her eyes wide as she took in the mayor.

"Wow Regina." She muttered. The brunette didn't allow for anymore talking as she wrapped her hand around Emma's neck, pulling their flush together as she kissed her passionately. The two moaned loudly at the feel of one another once more, as hands roamed all over the place, desperate to feel as much as possible.

Regina felt Emma's tongue swipe across her lip, and she quickly granted it entrance, letting it tangle with her own tongue which sent shock waves all over her body, leaving it tingling for more. Regina groaned when Emma's lips left hers and fused to her neck, sucking and kissing every inch they could.

"Emma." she gasped out, running her hands along the blonde's body, pulling her closer. Regina seized blonde hair and pulled Emma up for another kiss, this time spinning them around, pinning the blonde against the glass of the shower. Emma moaned loudly into Regina mouth, making the brunette grin salaciously.

Regina pulled back once more and reached behind her for the scented oils and soaps, grabbing one to rub across the blonde's heated body. She turned Emma, pressing the blonde's back into her, wrapping her arms around Emma's front to rub the soap across her chest.

Emma let her head fall back onto Regina shoulder, exposing her neck which the brunette quickly began to kiss as she continued to wash Emma. She moved her hands deliberately slowly, keeping them just above Emma's most intimate area, wishing to save that final activity for after the shower.

Once they were both washed and clean, Regina led Emma out of the shower, offering her a towel to dry off with. Regina could barely keep her eyes off the blonde as she rubbed the soft towel over her body, whipping away the droplets of water that still clung to her skin. When Emma was dry, she paused, staring at the clothes Regina had fetched her and then over at Regina who was looking at the blonde expectantly.

"Now what?" Regina asked Emma.

Emma stared at the clothes in front of her, unsure of what was expected next. Everything that had just transpired in the shower suggested to the blonde she would not be returning home tonight, but yet she was unsure on how to make things progress. She looked over towards Regina, who was staring at her expectantly.

"Now what?" She asked the blonde, who gulped. Emma's sudden courage in the shower had completely vanished, leaving the sheriff feelings a little lost. She glanced back at the clothes and decided they were a safe option.

"I'm just going to put these on." Emma said quickly and hastily pulled on the plain t-shirt and what looked like pyjama bottoms. The blonde awkwardly glanced at Regina, who was frowning at her.

"Emma?"

"Well this was fun." The blonde blurted out. "We should do it again sometime." Emma nodded at Regina and exited the bathroom, cursing at herself as she did. There was a loud squeak and bang before Regina shot of the bathroom, yanking on a silk dressing gown as she did.

"Emma wait!" she commanded, skidding to a stop in front of the awkward blonde. "Where are you going?"

"I don't know." Emma replied lamely. She felt like a teenager would during their first time, completely useless and shy.

"Didn't you enjoy that?" Regina asked, hurt flashing in her face.

"Yeah! Of course I did Regina."

"Then why are you shooting off?" The brunette asked, stepping closer to Emma who shifted around.

"I'm not sure." Regina frowned at the younger woman and lifted her hand to cup Emma's jaw lightly, bringing her eyes to meet Regina's.

"I'd much rather do it again now than "soon"." The mayor said, making Emma blush.

"So would I."

"You don't have to be shy around me, Emma."

"I don't know why I am. I've never had an issue with being with people before." The blonde explained, keeping eye contact with Regina. Emma didn't miss the angry look that flashed in the brunette's face at the mention of being with other people. "But with you it feels different, fragile almost. I'm scared I'll make a mistake."

"Well you shouldn't, it's just me darling." Emma smiled at the pet name again. Regina had never called her that before now, but it sounded like she had heard it a hundred times.

"I just want this to be perfect." Emma whispered as Regina got even closer, the hand on her jaw moving to cup her cheek. The blonde automatically wrapped her arms around Regina's slim waist, pulling them together.

"It is perfect."

Regina leant in and kissed Emma again, moving her backwards as she did. The blonde melted into the kiss and let Regina lead her backwards, not caring where she was going. Emma felt the backs of her legs hit something soft and Regina broke the kiss to gently push the blonde.

Emma sat down on what she assumed to be the bed, moaning quietly as Regina straddled her lap, crushing their lips together again. The blonde seized Regina's hips, pulling the brunette towards her as they continued to kiss. Emma moaned when a tongue pushed past her lips, quickly dominating her own.

The blonde let her hands drift up and down Regina's thighs, pulling up the dressing gown as she did. Emma felt the brunette's own hands leave her face to dance across her collar bone and shoulders, her touch feather light, barely there. She felt Regina smile against her lips, as she began pulling at the string keeping the dressing gown together. Pulling lightly, the loose bow came apart and the gown fell open, revealing perfect olive skin.

Regina wasted no time on Emma, and moved her hands down to grip the bottom of the t-shirt, pulling it up and over the blonde's head, leaving her completely bare from the waist up. Emma felt herself being coaxed back and she shuffled backwards until she hit the head board, her eyes never leaving Regina, who was pulling off the gown, slowly revealing more skin.

Emma moaned low in her throat as she watched the mayor return to the bed, crawling towards her on all fours, a dangerously sexy look in her eyes as she did. When the brunette reached Emma, she returned to her previous position on her lap, planting her knees on either side of Emma's thighs, grinding down slowly as she did.

The blonde growled at Regina, grasping at her backside and meeting her thrusts enthusiastically. Emma kissed along the brunette's neck, sucking on her clavicle hard, knowing it would leave a mark. Regina moaned as Emma's tongue darted out to taste the brunette's skin, dragging it down the valley between her breasts. Emma couldn't help but notice how Regina tasted faintly of apples, a taste the blonde found intoxicating.

Regina arched her back and cried out when the sheriff took one of her straining nipples in her mouth, a hand coming up to pinch and pull at the other. Emma lightly nipped at the nipple before releasing it with a slight pop before kissing across the other one, taking it in her mouth and giving it a hard suck causing Regina to bite her lip hard to avoid screaming at the top of her lungs.

The brunette threaded her fingers into blonde tresses as she pulled Emma's mouth up to meet hers, thrusting her tongue in to gain dominance over the blonde. Emma squeaked as she felt her body tugged down to lay underneath Regina, who hovered over her, a lustful look on her face. The blonde starred into dark eyes as she felt the brunette tug off Emma's last article of clothing and tossing it behind her.

Regina's lips returned to hers in a fleeting kiss, before moving down along her jaw to her neck. Emma closed her eyes tightly as she felt Regina nipping and sucking at skin, marking where she pleased while fingers travelled up and down her sides.

"Regina, please!" Emma gasped, her core aching to be touched. Regina smirked at her, an evil smile on her face.

"What do you want darling?" she cooed, a finger lightly tracing the inside of her thigh, ghosting over her core and up her stomach.

"I need you." Emma moaned out, her fingers gripping at Regina's back, her short nails digging in.

"Tell me where you want me?" The brunette whispered, her fingers hovered over Emma's sex.

"Inside." The blonde begged and Regina chuckled before complying with Emma's wish.

Emma couldn't help but cry out when to two fingers pushed slowly inside of her, curling ever so slightly as they did. The blonde bucked her hips up, trying to get more of Regina in her, but her other hand held Emma's hips down. Emma continued to moan as the fingers pushed in further, still curling up.

"More." The blonde cried out and Regina pushed her fingers all the way in before pulling all the way out, leaving just the tip in.

"Ask nicely." The brunette teased, coming up to look down on Emma, her lips mere inches away from the blonde's.

"Please." Two fingers drove back inside Emma, setting a fast pacing making the blonde moan uncontrollably. Regina crushed their lips together, swallowing the blonde's moans as she brought her thumb up to grind into Emma's clit.

"You're so beautiful Emma." Regina uttered, curling her fingers inside the blonde, making her body quake as her orgasm neared the edge.

"Ah Regina I-I'm close." Emma gasped out, feeling the fingers work even harder inside of her.

"Cum for me Emma." Regina commanded making the blonde lose all control as her body unravelled beneath Regina's. She screamed as wave after wave of pleasure erupted through her, spreading all the way to the tips of her fingers and toes. Slowly, Regina pulled her fingers out of Emma and brought them to her lips, sucking them in and moaning as she tasted the blonde.

The brunette moved to sit on the blonde's stomach, who was still recovering from the powerful orgasm. Regina ran her hands up and down Emma's legs before hooking her thigh under Emma's, bringing her core up to meet with Emma's.

"Darling look at me." She cooed, and the blonde forced her eyes open to meet Regina's. She watched as the brunette drove her hips down into her own, their cores slamming together, making both women groan in pleasure.

Regina began grinding against Emma, moaning out as she felt her clit rub against Emma's bringing her close to her climax. The blonde squirmed and moaned as her body quickly awoke once more, pleasure building up inside her as she watched Regina bring them closer to climax.

The brunette leant down to kiss Emma, who pushed her tongue into Regina mouth quickly, reaching down to grasp Regina ass, encouraging the brunette's thrusts. Regina grabbed one of Emma's hands, lacing their fingers together as she felt her orgasm reach the edge. With one final thrust, both women fell over the edge, screaming into each other's mouths as pleasure radiated all over them.

Once the waves of pleasure died down, Regina collapsed onto of Emma, her body quivering slightly as Emma wrapped her arms around her securely.

"That was amazing." The blonde panted out, rubbing small circles on Regina's back.

"It really was." The brunette replied and rolled off the blonde. Emma watched as Regina tugged back the covers and ushered the blonde under them. Emma quickly obeyed, exhaustion flooding her system as she lay back on the soft mattress. Regina crawled in next to her, snuggling up at her side as she did. The blonde felt an arm loosely wrap around her stomach as she shut her eyes, allowing sleep to finally take her.
