I decided to write another chapter. I have a few ideas for this story (or rather one shots). If you have an idea and would like me to write it - just let me know. I'll try to write in my free time. In the meantime, I hope you will like it. Let me know what you think.

Regina has always been an early bird so she was not suprised that heard quiet steps toward the kitchen. Even as an infant she got up early in the morning, waking everyone in household.

Because she had to be hold by her parents and because she needed their proximity. And it was unfair that they slept together and she had to be in her cradle. Alone.

According to Rumplestiltskin that whole situation was funny. His beloved daughter hated to sleep, while his dear wife was known in the whole Enchanted Forest as a mistress of the sleeping curses and the sleeping spells.

Of course Maleficent was not amused at all and because of that he had to sleep in the other room for a week because he was banished from their bedroom. But even then she was able to hear his imp's laugh. Because his precious baby from the beginning was the joker.

Besides Maleficent not once caught him playing with their daughter while she should sleep. But she did not say anything, even if she wanted, because they looked really cute together and Regina's smile was so big that she was not able to ruin these moments. She knew that she should not allow it but... It was not her fault that her baby was so convincing even if she had not idea that she was watching them. Sometimes Maleficent caught herself thinking that Cruella was right. Regina was a little devil.

But she was her little devil.

Her big brown puppy eyes and a big smile on her face made that sometimes... well, often, they agreed on everything she wanted. Or at least Rumplestiltskin because Regina wrapped him around her little finger. Later bedtime because she still wants to play? Just sweet „daddy!" and these big brown eyes and daddy Rumplestiltskin agrees on everything what his little girl wants.

And then again, he finds himself sleeping in the other room.

Because she has a hard time to convince their daughter to take a bath and go to sleep.

"Good morning, un-Sleeping Beauty." Said Maleficent as soon as the child entered the room.

"Good morning, mom." Regina took her usual place and grimaced because the woman ruffled her hair. "Mom!"

"Something happened, my dear?" Maleficent asked with a mysterious smirk and put a plate in front of her daughter.

"You ruined my hair!"

"Oh no! I didn't know that you're miss 'don't touch my hair' perfect."

"Not funny, mom." She muttered while her mother chuckled, seeing her facial expression. "Are aunts still sleeping?"

"No, honey. In fact they left a few minutes ago." The blonde sat next to her and she started to eat her breakfast.

"Why?" She asked as she swallowed bread and frowned. "I thought they'll stay with us a bit longer."

"Because they will." Twelve years old raised her eyebrow, curiously looking at her mother. "They have... stuff to do. And also they left so we can in the peace talk about your behavior from yesterday."

Regina sighed and lowered her head.

"I hoped you forgot." She muttered and her mother chuckled.

"I told you, little one, that I will not forget."

"I know. I just tried to have a hope that maybe this time will be different."

"Don't tell me that you really believed in that?" The blonde asked, smirking.

"Duh, I didn't. I'm not stupid enough to believe in that. You're worse than dad if we talk about stuff like this and he's the one who sees the future and all."

"Well, my dear, someone has to or else your puppy eyes will allow you to avoid punishment for murder or worse, they'll allow you to bring disaster for kingdoms because your father will do everything what you want."

"Being your daughter is great excuse to avoid penalty for murder, mother." She stuck out her tongue and her and a moment later was gently flicked in the nose. "And I'm just cute, that's all!"

"Don't be so insolent, young lady!" The woman said and got up from her seat and took her daughter's empty plate when she finished her meal. Then she kissed her forehead. "But you are."

"See? I told you." She grinned but then sighed and rubbed her nose before looked at her mother again. "What now, mom?"

"We're going to talk." Maleficent said and she reluctantly nodded. "The sooner we start, the sooner we finish. Come, dear. The kitchen is not a good place to have this conversation."

"I guess..." She muttered and stood from her place and then grabbed her mother's waiting hand.

"Daddy!" Regina yelled as soon as they entered to the library because her father stood next to the window.

When Rumplestiltskin heard his daughter's voice, he turned and smiled broadly and a moment later he hold his little girl in his arms. He was gone only for a week but he missed his daughter even more than she missed him. Although it was impossible because no one could miss someone more than Regina.

"Hello, dearie." He said and kissed her head and she hugged him tighter.

"I've missed you, daddy."

"I've missed you too, princess." Rumple said and then looked at his wife, who now sat on the couch, and watched them with a small smile on her lips,

The Dark One took a few steps and sat down next to her, having his child on his laps, and then kissed his beloved one. When Regina saw what her parents were doing, she winced.

"Ugh. Not in front of minors! You want me to have nightmares?"

"I thought you don't sleep in the night anyway." Said her father while Maleficent smirked and gently flicked her daughter's nose.

"It's not funny, dad. It's a very serious matter!"

"I'm sure it is." He looked at her intently. "And I believe we should talk about something else."

"Should we, daddy?" She asked sweetly and looked and him with her puppy eyes. He opened is mouth to say something but did not have a chance because his wife was faster.

"Nice try, little one, but yes. We must."

"You're mean, mom!" She muttered but when her mother raised an eyebrow, she smiled innocently because realised her mistake. "I mean I love you, mommy. That's what I wanted to say."

Rumplestiltskin chuckled, seeing his daughter's facial expression, and then sat her down on the couch between them. Regina winced.

"I really don't like to sit like that." She crossed her arms and leaned against the back of the sofa and then looked at her parents. "I feel then as if you wanted to kill me."

"No one wants to kill you." Maleficent put a strand of hair behind her ear and looked at her husband before looked back at her. "But we need to about your behavior."

"I know." Twelve years old sighed and lowered her head. "And I'm sorry for that. That was stupid."

"I just hope you'll never do it again." Said Rumplestiltskin and gently took her hand. "Because it was really dangerous."

"I know, dad." She muttered. "I just wanted to play outside and aunts would not let me."

"Honey, you need to know that if we or your aunts say 'no', then we have a good reason to say that." The woman looked at her daughter who now looked at her, too. "It's not like we don't want you to have a fun."

Regina sniffled.

"I will know that now."

"Good. Because we don't want to see you hurt."

"And also, you shouldn't touch your mother's spells. Not without permission, at least."

She winced once again. She still could not believe that she really put her aunts under a sleeping spell. Why she even thought about it in the first place?

"I won't do it again. I promise."

"We know, honey. But you must understand that it could end much worse." Said her mother. Regina has no idea how the woman could speak so calmly and gently. "What if one of your aunts fell and hit her head? Or what if I didn't return and didn't find you? You could freeze there."

She bit her lips and lowered her head. She felt so bad and what's worse, she felt guilty.

"I didn't think about it." She said when her mother patted her chin. "I feel like crap right now."

"You're much better than that, dearie." Rumple sat her down on his knees and kissed her forehead. "You made a mistake, what is normal, and it is our role as parents to show it to you and help you understand it."

"But I broke our deal, daddy." She muttered and they had a hard time to understand her. "I promised that I would be good but I wasn't. And you always keep your deals."

"Dearie, it wasn't a deal." He smiled when she looked at him with a frown. "A deal is between two, or more, people when one side decide to do something exchange for something and the other side agree with these terms and conditions. For example I protect kingdom from the ogres and the king leaves our family alone."

"Really, daddy?" She looked at him. Eyes opened widely.

"Really." He nodded. "And if it makes you feel better, you never promised you'd be good. You said you'll listen to Cruella and Ursula but you never promised it."

Regina smiled broadly and then hugged him tightly.

"I love you, daddy!"

"I love you, too, princess." He said and looked at his wife who just smiled. "But it doesn't mean you don't deserve to be punished."

"I know." She said as she went from his knees and took her former place.

"Then let's get this over."

She had no idea what she should expect but she definitely did not expect what happened next.

Her father took her in his arms and then gently threw her on the couch and then started to tickle her. She could not help and started laughing out of loud.

"Dad! Dad, please! Daddy!" She yelled as she tried to run. But he was stronger and she once again found herself on the sofa. "Daddy! Please, I'll be good. Daddy! Daddy, please! Stop, daddy!"

"Sorry, dearie, but you deserved it." He smirked and Regina started to cry. Not because she was sad or hurt but because she could not stop laughing.

"Mommy!" She tried again. "Mommy, tell daddy to stop!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, little one. Did you say something?" Asked Maleficent. She now sat in the armchair next to the fireplace and read a mysterious book. Rumplestiltskin smirked even more.

"Help me, mommy!" Regina yelled again. "Daddy wants to kill me!"

"Really? Well... In that case we'll organise funeral, honey."

"Mom!"

Maleficent just chuckled and looked at her husband, who winked to her, and at her daughter, who now laughed like some madman. Just like Rumple when she talked to him about their daughter's behavior when he returned in the middle of the night. He could not believe that she was able to do something like that and stopped just when she warned him that if he doesn't, then he will sleep in another room.

"Dad!" Twelve years old said again. "Please, stop!"

"Will you take magical things without permission?" Rumple asked, still smiling.

"No! I promise, I will never do it again, daddy! Promise!"

"Will you listen to your aunts?"

"I don't know!" She yelled. Rumple stopped tickle her and looked at her with an raised eyebrow. Maleficent did the same. "Well, because I don't know, daddy. I try not to make promises I can't keep. I learned my lesson."

"That's my girl!" He said and winked. "And now give me a hug!"

Regina did as she was told and a moment later felt a kiss on her head. She grinned and then looked at her mom who still read her book. Then she looked at her father and smiled nastily, when he nodded. She got up from his knees and walked to her mother and then jumped on her.

Maleficent looked at her with an raised eyebrow and when she saw her smirk, decided to take the challenge.

"Did nobody tell you that it's not wisely to disturb a dragon, young lady?" She asked quietly. Her daughter shook her head. "Then you should know that if you disturb a dragon, then it will eat you!"

The blonde lowered her head as if she wanted to bite the child but in fact she kissed her. Regina squealed because she did not expect this.

"Mom!"

"Don't disturb a dragon again, little one!"

Regina got up from her knees and began to run. Maleficent smirked and looked at her chuckling husband before ran to catch her running child.

"Daaddy!" She yelled some time ago. "Daaaaddy! Mommy wants to kill me! Help me, daddy!"

Regina looked back and because of that she did not notice her aunts who returned a few minutes ago and when she turned her head it was too late.

She fell on Ursula and together landed on poor Cruella who groaned loudly. Her poor bones. First a sleeping spell then she was knocked by two people.

"I'm sorry. I didn't see... aaaa!" She yelled because her mother grabbed her. "It doesn't count, mom! They interrupted!"

"Who interrupted then interrupted." Said Ursula, smiling slightly. Her girlfriend groaned once again. "Cruella thinks the same."

"You're always so helpful." Smirked Maleficent and the sea goddess helped de Vil to get up.

"I see I missed a lot." Said Rumple who appeared from nowhere. "And I'm disappointed that she caught you so easily."

"Just because they interrupted!" Regina said once again and crossed her arms. "They don't like me."

"My head." Muttered Cruella and began to rub her forehead. It wasn't her day.

"I said I'm sorry!"

"Ignore her, Regina. She's just complaining."

"I need to drink."

"But it's just eight forty-six in the morning"

"I don't remember I asked you about opinion, imp." She said and headed to the living room, where she knew that Maleficent and Rumple have their alcohol. Rest of them followed her. "And if you don't want me to drink then teach your daughter how to walk."

"Don't blame me, aunt. You and aunt Ursula grew out of the ground"

"It's not my fault that you inherit your father growth and it's impossible to see you, darling." Said Cruella and the child grinned. She loved her aunt and knew that she was just joking.

"The last loses!" She yelled and started to run again.

Regina loved her family even though it wasn't normal. After all who has in family a dragon, the Dark One, the octopus (just don't say Ursula she called her that. It was her nickname for a sea goddess and only her father knew about it) and a person who could control animal (although this power does not work on little devils. Well. One little devil, that is.)

TBC?
