A/N Just a side note that I will be a bit busy this week, but will try to get the chapters out as soon as I can. I had A reader mention that they wouldn't mind if the chapters were longer. My intent with this story was to keep it short, each chapter simply focusing on interactions and moments that impacted the story. So I had no plans on making it longer, however, it appears that the final 4ish chapters will be longer than all the earlier ones. So I hope some of you will enjoy that. I will try to get this one finished soon, because I have an idea for my first crossover using OUaT and TB (Emma/Regina, Pam/Tara). AU of course. Really excited and yet really nervous!

Anywho, Happy Reading!

"Fuck." Emma gasped.

Regina had her legs spread nearly to the limit, her hands gripping the blonde's firm ass as they grinded their centers together. After the shower, they had quickly dried off and made their way to the bed.

She trailed a hand up Emma's back, bringing it around to squeeze a firm breast. Regina moaned as she was almost there. She let out a strangled noise as she released her fifth orgasm. Emma finished shortly after, slowing her grind to ride it out before she collapsed gently on top of the beautiful brunette.

Emma rolled over onto her back, trying to catch her breath. Regina moved half way on top of her and rested her head on her rising chest.

"I would say we should go again, but I am actually really hungry." Regina chuckled against Emma's chest.

"How about, I order some take out, we eat in bed, and then maybe we can continue where we left off?" Regina sat up as she presented the offer.

"Sounds like a plan." Emma smiled.

After the food arrived, they sat and ate in a comfortable silence. Regina had wrapped herself in a sheet and Emma wore a large t-shirt that she had put on to answer the door. Emma wondered what had brought this on. Not that she was complaining. The sex was amazing. She had so many questions she wanted to ask, but she didn't want to push and make Regina uncomfortable. Turns out she didn't need to push.

"He's cheating on me..." Regina spoke quietly. "He has been...for a while. I'm not exactly sure how long, but at least a year." She finished. Emma didn't reply. She wanted to let Regina get it all out.

"I saw them kissing outside of our home today. He didn't know I was there." She picked at the rest of her food. "And then he lied...to my face, when I asked him about it." She chuckled sadly. "He just kept lying to me" she finished. Emma took a moment to watch Regina.

"I'm sorry you have to go through this. You deserve better." She spoke honestly. Regina gave a sad smile.

"I suppose..." Regina moved her take-out box to the bedside table.

"Is that..." Emma couldn't ignore the small seed of insecurity that had been planted. "Is that why you... Why this... Was it to get back at him?" She cleared her throat and tried to act uncaring. She knew her role.

Regina was caught off guard by the question. She didn't know how to respond. She wished she could tell Emma that it was all about wanting to be with her, but she knew it would be a lie. She was pissed, but she still loved him. She just didn't know how much. She didn't know much of anything now. She didn't know if she and Daniel could fix this. She didn't even know if her love for him was the same anymore. Most of all, she didn't know what she was doing with Emma. There was something about the blonde that kept pulling at her.

"I must admit...that seeing him with her... Having my suspicions confirmed, did something to me. I was...am…so pissed at him for doing this to me and I can't deny that that rage may have played a part in my own infidelity. But why you, Emma?" She paused. Emma looked up at her with confusion written all over her face.

"I'm not blind, Emma. I know that I am an attractive woman. If I simply wanted to even the playing field, I could have my choice of lovers." She noticed the slight look of offense on the blonde's face. "I'm not trying to sound cocky. There is just...something about you, that brought me straight here. I don't know what it is about you." She pushed a strand of Emma's hair behind her ear. Emma gave her a soft smile.

"Have you told him about the baby?" she asked. Regina took a deep breath.

"No. I haven't seemed to find the right time." Regina replied. Emma nodded.

"I think I'm failing pretty badly here." Emma stated as she cleared away her food as well.

"What are you talking about?" Regina inquired. Emma leaned back against the headboard and grabbed Regina's hand, pulling her onto her lap. The sheet fell away in the process, leaving her to straddle Emma in all her naked glory. Emma took in the beautiful body before her.

"You are clearly in need of a distraction from reality..." She trailed her hands up the smooth skin, cupping soft breasts. "My job..." she slid her thumbs over her nipples, causing them to perk almost instantly at her touch, "Is to distract you." She then leaned in to suck and kiss along Regina's neck.

"Mmm... As good as this feels...I should really head home..." Regina could feel herself getting worked up all over again. How was Emma able to turn her on so quickly?

"Or... You can stay..." Emma shrugged shyly and glanced at the woman above her. Regina's heart skipped a beat at the look in those green eyes. How could she have been so careless? She knew Emma wanted more from her. She was too caught up in her own sorrows to even think of what affect this would all have on her.

"Emma... I am still married and I do love my husband. I..." She watched as Emma lowered her head and occupied herself with tracing patterns on Regina's thighs. "I don't know what is going to happen between Daniel and me. I like you, but I don't want to lead you on..." She waited for a response.

"I understand. I really do. I knew what I was getting myself into." She looked up into brown eyes. "I don't expect anything from you. I just want to be here for you, however you need me, while you sort things out. I am allowing you to use me how you see fit." She smirked and leaned in to steal another kiss. She had hoped to lighten the mood and cover up the emotions she had accidentally let slip. Regina smiled against her lips

"I have to be at the office tomorrow..." Regina was telling herself more than Emma.

"I have to be up early. I can wake you whenever you want, you can be home in time to do whatever you need to get ready." She pulled away from plump lips and watched as Regina debated.

"Okay." Regina bit her lip. Emma gave her a heart melting smile.

"Really?" She asked. Regina smiled and nodded.

"Good." Emma spoke and then flipped them over and settled down on top on Regina. "Now where were we?" She started working her way down her body. Regina moaned...

Won't you stay with me?

Cause you're all I need

This ain't love, it's clear to see

But, darling, stay with me
