A/n: Now we get to what even inspired this piece! Safe and sound, origenally by Tswift but showed to me by my sis by Megan Nicole. FOr added dramatic affect play the song in the background as you read, you can read the whole story that way too ;)
Emma awoke to the sounds of a puppy whimpering. As she started to drift further from sleep she realized it was Regina. She was deciding what to do when she heard Regina sniffle. Emma couldn't take it anymore.
She talked quietly to try and not make the woman jump out of her skin.
"Hey, bad dream?"
Regina's eyes slowly shifted towards the sound of Emma's voice.
"I'll be good Emma, I-I promise I'll be good." She sucked in air like she couldn't breathe.
Emma crawled up on the bed.
"Hey, you are good. You are, shhh."
Regina winced but kept crying.
Emma wrapped her arms around the shaking brunette.
"You are a wonderful mother. You are a great mayor, there is good in you. You know that…."
Emma kept telling Regina, that she wasn't a bad person.
When that wasn't working Emma started humming than singing a song, one that a foster mother she couldn't place must have sang to her.
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said I'll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight…
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound…
As the brunette started to calm, there was a change in the air.
Regina looked out the window, there was a purple smog coming.
Emma followed her line of sight and clung tighter to Regina.
This time it was Regina reassuring Emma.
"It'll be ok."
A/N: BOOM MAGIC! How will this change things?
