PROMPT: Regina sees Emma asleep on the couch and stares at her for a while until Emma reveals she has been awake the entire time (comically) when Regina goes to cover her up.
It was one of those nights when they had a family time. Just Regina, Henry, and Emma. After a good dinner, they would all sit on the couch in front of television and watch some movies. It was an usual thing that Emma would stay over night. It was Henry's idea, but after a few weeks, Regina didn't seem to mind, either. After all, they did have guest rooms.
But that night Emma didn't go to sleep right away. She said she wasn't tired and wanted to stay there a little longer.
Around two in the morning Regina woke up with a sudden thirst and went downstairs to drink something. A surprised waited for her in the living her as soon as she descended the stairs and discovered the savior, sprawled on her couch with an open book on top of her.
Regina couldn't stop herself from smiling before she came closer to the blonde and took the book off, watching her face for a moment. Emma was very beautiful and so peaceful and calm in her sleep. Regina had to force herself to turn away, but as soon as she reached for a blanket lying in the armchair next to the couch she returned to face the sleeping sheriff.
She covered her with the blanket and some weird instinct made her bring her hand to the blonde's curls, and she gently caressed them. And then without thinking she leaned down, determined to kiss Emma on her lips. Watching the face in front of her, she was about to do what her deepest desires told her to… But suddenly she stared into emerald eyes.
Regina let out a short yelp as she lost her balance and, still startled, fell on her backside as she tripped over a low table behind her.
When she heard a quick amused laugh, she was back on her feet in a second, staring angrily at the blonde.
"You're such an idiot!" Regina snarled at her, ready to storm out of the room without a second thought about her thirst, but before she could do that, a hand caught her elbow with a mumbled "I'm sorry" and drew her closer to the couch - with Regina eventually being forced to sit on the edge of the sofa.
Emma sat up and leaned closer to the brunette who was cautiously watching her. "I'm not talking to you," Regina whispered softly.
The blonde nodded and murmured, "I know,", and then closed the small distance between them and pressed her lips against Regina's.
