As always, Emma got up from bed at 5am and walked to the guest room to get Henry's gift. She teleported quitly to the mansions dining room and heard a loud bang. She quickly hid the gift with magic and ran into the kitchen to see Regina on the floor sitting against the counter sleeping. Emma smiled at the sight but noticed the bottle of wine, that apparently was empty.

She's been drinking

Emma walked to the brunette and took her into her arms and teleported them to the hallway, since Emma didn't know where Regina's room was. She noticed a open door at the end of the hallway and all the other doors were closed. She figured that must be Regina's room and walked to the door entering. She gently closed the door and crefully put the brunette down on the bed. She used her magic to cover the woman with the covers and she walked out. She sw Henry in the hallway and sudenly got worried.

"Ma. What are you doing here so early?"

Emma tensed. She didnt know what to say or do. She didn't have a reason to be here, but she knew she needed to come up with something.

"I uhm. I could sense something was wrong so I transported over here and saw your mom. She doesnt feel so good, so just leave her be today okay?"

Henry nodded and went back to sleep.

"Good night ma"

"Night kid"


When Regina woke, it was still dark. She looked at the clock and sighed as she saw that it was only about 6am. She laid back down and tried to get back to sleep when she suddenly heard someone snoring. She turned and saw Emma laying beside her. Regina stiffened as she saw the blonde. She didn't know how to react to this. It was wired. But at the same time, she felt incredibly safe. She smiled at the blonde and put her hand on the womans cheek.

You're beautiful

Regina moved closer to the sleepng blonde and smiled once more.

"I don't know how to say this", Regina started whispering looking at the still sleeping blonde.

"I don't know what I feel right now. I don't know anything right now. All I actually know, is that I feel something for you. I feel something I probably shouldn't. You're Henry's other mother. It's wired in some way. Also when you think about it. I'm also your stepgrandmother. It's indeed wired. Really wired. But I can't control what I feel. And surprisingly enough, I don't want to control them. I've always loved control. I crave for control. I once believed that I coulnd't live if I didn't have some kind of control. But with you, I don't care if I'm the one being controlled. It's always you. Snow White's daughter"

Regina lauhed lightly at the thought.

"I tried to kill you. Destroy you. I did the curse because of you, and I ended up falling in love with you"

Regina stiffened as she heard her own words. She was surprised by her own choice of words. She let herself carry to far. But it was too late to deny now. She was in love with Emma and she could do nothing about it.

*But what about the secret admire? What about him? Her? He or she deserved a change. He or she made the first step after all. Maybe I should just wa-*

"Regina?"

The familir sexy morning voice broke through her train of thoughts and she looked up to see the blonde staring back down at her.

"Are you okay Regina?"

Regina nodded and removed her hand from the blonds cheek, but Emma quickly took the hand and stopped it from leaving her cheek. Regina looked at Emma with adoring and confused eyes and Emma assured her.

"I like it placed there", she whispered and smiled as she caressed the womans hand. Regina blushed and looked down. Before any of them could say anything the clock went off and they both jumped of shock. Emma groaned as she landed on the floor while Regina stopped the clock from its scream. She turned but saw no Emma and looked down.

"Omg Emma, are you okay?", Regina asked as she got out of bed and helped Emma to stand.

"Thanks. Yeah I'm fine"

Regina let out a sigh in relief.

"Sorry"

"It's okay"

Regina smiled and cleaned the bed with her magic.

"I should really remeber that"

Regina laughed and walked into the bahtroom, leaving Emma to her thoughts.

Did she wear just underwear?


The two women walked down stairs into the kitchen starting on brekfast. Regina took care of the eggs and bacon and Emma took care of the bread and juice. After a couple minutes Henry walked in and saw his two mothers standing at the stove smiling and laughing. Henry smiled and quietly sat at the island. He sat and watched his mothers interact and smiled.

"When do you think Henry will be down?", Emma asked as she helped Regina turning the eggs.

"Emma it's only 7am. He will probably first be down here in an hour or two"

Emma laughed lightly and nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, you probably right"

Henry shot his mothers an offended look but decided to let I slide. He didn't want to reveal himself after all. After a couple seconds in silence Regina spoke.

"Thank you... For this morning. I'm sorry you had to see me like that"

Emma turned to the brunette with sad eyes and nodded.

"Of course. Would do anything for you Regina. I hope you know that!"

"Yes. I know. Thank you Emma", Regina whispered and smiled at the blonde. Said blonde smiled back and turned back to the eggs. Henry sat behind them still, smiling at them. He got curious about what happened to his brunette mother this morning, but decided to wait to ask. Suddenly he saw his mother leaning into each other and he had enough.

"Alright, too much information"

Both women jumped as they heard their son growl.

"Henry! How long have you been sitting there?"

"Apparently for far too long", he said groaning even more of the thought of his mothers almost kissing. Emma and Regina chuckled and suddenly all heard a knock on the door. Regina walked to the door and saw Ruby standing there.

"Thank god you're home! Is Emma here? She's not at her own house"

Regina chuckled and stepped aside for the panting brunette to walk in.

"Ruby! What are you doing here?", Emma said chuckling as she saw how tired the younger brunette was.

"I need you! Now! My date is in 10 hours!"

Regina chuckled and walked pass Emma.

"I'll see you later", Regina said and smiled.

"Yeah"

Emma smiled at the brunette and said brunette smiled back. Emma turned to the younger brunette.

"Let's get you ready love bird"

As Regina walked back inside the kitchen she immediately received a smirk from her son.

"What?", she asked oh so innocent. She blushed as she knew what her son was going to say.

"You're crazy about her"

Regina blushed hard. She walked to the stove and made the breakfast done. She gave Henry a plate and herself as well and together they sat and ate.

"Why don't you just admit it mom. You like ma. A lot"

Regina cleared her throat and eyed her son.

"Emma and I are good friends. We get along"

"Yeah. Really good", Henry said rolling with his eyes looking just like Regina in that moment. Regina noticed the eye roll and smiled.

He has my eye rolls


It was almost time for Ruby's date and she and Emma had been out shopping the perfect dress. A red thin one, that clearly showed the brunette's curves.

"The other one looked better didn't it?"

"Stop worrying. You look amazing Ruby. If Mulan doesn't see that, she's blind", Emma said smiling at Ruby.

Ruby smiled nervously back.

"You're right. You're right"

Emma smiled and hugged her friend.

"I love you. Thank you for being a good friend"

Ruby got tears in her eyes and smiled with teeth showing.

"I love you too Ems"


"Mom! Look what I found!"

Regina walked inside the living room and saw Henry with a gift.

"You got two present?"

"Three actually"

"Well let's see them"

"Alright", Henry said, sitting beside his mother in the couch. He opens the first gift that reveals another video game.

"Fallout 4!"

Regina smiled and nodded. Henry opened the second and Regina already knew what I was. She couldn't wait to see Henry's reaction. As Henry saw the first Harry Potter book, he smiled widely.

"A Harry Potter book!"

The third gift was a white shirt and a black tie.

*Not bad miss Swan. Not bad*

Just as Henry was about to groan, they both heard he door open and Emma walked in.

"Hey guys"

"We're in the living room"

Emma walked in and saw Regina and Henry with his gifts.

"Hey, what's this?"

Henry smiled widely.

"My secret Santa gave fallout 4, the first Harry Potter book and a shirt and a tie"

Emma smiled at how happy her son was for the gifts. Henry ran out of the room with his stuff and ran upstairs. Emma sat down beside Regina who sat and smiled at her.

"What?"

"How much money, have you spend on all those gifts?"

Emma looked down chuckling. Regina looked confused smiling at the blonde.

"What?"

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you"

"Try me", Regina said challenging the blonde.

"None"

"None?"

"None"

"How?"

"I just appeared the gifts with magic"

Regina smirked at the blonde in pride.

"Well. Good"

"So. What did your secret admire get you?"

Regina smiled widely at the blonde and walked to the kitchen. After a minute she walked back in and came with a box and handed it to Emma.

"Open it"

Emma obeyed and the box revealed a golden apple.

"Wow"

"Indeed. It must have cost a fortune"

"I believe yeah"
