A/n:tissues, you might need tissues.
A trembling hand pulled her phone from her pocket. She slowly lowered herself to the floor, as she felt light headed. Why was she even fighting to stay alive? She asked herself.
A voice after the first ring, "Where the HELL are you?! We were worried."
A smile.
"Em-ma… I nee-I need to go to the…hospital."
A thud no one heard as the brunette dropped the phone to the floor.
Emma and Henry had been waiting back at the house. She grabbed Henry and they got in the car and flew to town hall. Emma had to break the door down, it took a few tries. Regina lay in the middle of the floor, with a bottle tumbled from her hands.
Henry screamed. Emma checked her pulse, it was still there.
"Is she dead?! She can't die! She didn't get her happy ending! This isn't what was supposed to happen!" Henry was only growing more hysterical.
"Henry!" Emma boomed.
"Calm down. We have to get her to the hospital." Emma scooped her limp body up.
They made it to StoryBrook's ER.
"Overdose! We have an overdose!" Emma screamed into the echoing hall.
A crash cart was brought out.
They tried to tell Emma she couldn't come.
"To hell with you all I'm not leaving her alone with you!"
Emma watched as a woman with light brown skin and black hair walked in.
"Dr. Jasmine, I didn't know the evil queen, may I assist you?"
Emma checked her face, not a lie, she nodded.
"Ok Miss Swan we are going to have to pump her stomach and give her fluids, can you try to get her conscious for me?"
Emma tried shaking her shoulders and calling her name, it worked.
"Emma…?" Regina's voice was weak.
"Regina you need to get sick."
Regina tried to open her eyes.
"Emma, I'm tired…I don't want to fight anymore... tell Henry…"
"NO! You will do this! You will fight for him, don't you dare. You asked for help and I got there, I made it , you can't…" Emma couldn't finish her sentence.
The nurse tipped a cup to Regina's lips. Regina's eyes fluttered open and saw Emma's, deciding and swallowed.
Then next moment she was losing it all over the floor. The doctor stopped her from falling off the cart. She barely had time to breath between the waves tumbling out of her.
"Emma….please make it stop…" Again another wave.
Emma held her shaking arm, giving little support.
"Just a bit longer Regina, you can do it."
Two more times had Regina collapsing down to the bed, spent.
She was awake and breathing but there was no strength left in her body.
The nurse looked relieved.
"She'll be all right, just need to hook her up to some fluids…." She smiled at Emma.
Emma wiped at her face.
…
Regina lay very still while the staff cleaned the floor and put her in a private room. Emma sat there holding her hand for hours.
When Regina finally did stir is was early the next morning.
Emma brushed strands out of Regina's face.
"Hey…"
Regina's hand went to her head.
"My head hurts." She grumbled.
Emma started sobbing.
Regina looked at her like she had just seen a car accident.
"Emma?"
Emma tried to calm herself enough to speak.
"You don't get to do that… I lose everything I care about EVERYTHING. You can't do this to me…."
Regina swore that could have been a line she had uttered at one point.
"Emma, I'm right here… I'm here…"
Emma pointed at her.
"No, you wanted to leave me like EVERYONE else!" Emma pulled herself further away.
Regina didn't know how to make it better.
Her voice was very small, "But Emma don't you see… I called you… I didn't…." Regina stopped.
Emma suddenly was kissing her.
….
Emma let her lips connect with Regina's. She let her tears fall onto olive skin.
A soft hand cupped her cheek, and the kiss was carefully broken.
"Emma…" Regina started.
Emma shook her head tears still falling.
A/N:Woah the KISS.
