Two weeks.
Fourteen Days.
Three hundred and thirty six hours.
One thousand and four hundred forty minutes.
One million two hundred nine thousand six hundred seconds.
That's all it took.
That's all it took for emerald eyes and Rapunzel hair to reach her cold heart and sorrowful soul and make her feel as if she's on top of the world.
Two weeks.
That's all it took for her to fall in love and lose hope on love at the same time.
Regina had been sitting quietly reading a Sidney Sheldon book when a body blocked the light from the ceiling of the train compartment she is settling. At first she didn't mind the intrusion, thinking that the person who blocked her light would get the hint and just walk away.
But she was wrong.
The person blocking the light didn't move, instead it slowly moved towards her making the reading impossible.
"What is wrong with you?" She asked exasperatedly without taking her eyes away from 'Tell Me Your Dreams'
"Hi!" came an awkwardly angelic voice, making the brunette lift her head suddenly.
She was met by emerald eyes framed by black rimmed glasses that seem to hide the beauty of her orbs. Her hair that rivaled the color of goldilocks and rapunzel's are being held by a band. She has this awkward smile plastered on her face that makes her both adorable and lovely at the same time.
For some reasons, Regina was captivated. However, she collects herself immediately before the blonde could notice her staring. She focused herself again on her book despite the hindrance.
"Would you move a little bit so I can read my book?" She requested.
"How many times have you read that one?" The annoying but sexy blonde asked.
"It's not any of your concern…" Regina trailed off not knowing what the blonde's name.
"Emma. Emma Swan." She said without having an interest in moving from her place.
"Miss Swan, would you please move or just leave me alone. I need my privacy." The brunette replied abruptly.
"I will move okay. But you need to answer my question."
"I don't need to answer any of your inquiries, Ms. Swan." Regina replied coldly.
"You know Regina, it's not bad to have a conversation with a stranger you know."
"How did you?" Regina replied taking her eyes off the book whilst looking at the blonde with her eyebrows arched in a curious manner.
The blonde stared at her for a while with a smirk before glancing at the top of the book she's holding.
"If I am correct, that is your name on top of the book." Miss Swan replied in a matter of fact tone.
Regina hated it.
"So, are you going to answer my question?" She asked again.
"Why do you want me to answer your question?" She asked. Thankfully, the dumb blonde decided to move and sit infront of her. However, the blonde thought that it will be nice to snatch the book out of Regina's hands.
If looks can freeze a person, then Emma would have been frozen by now with the icy glare that she's receiving from the feisty brunette.
"Just answer me." She shrugged.
"Five. Six. I can't even remember. Now you got your answer, can I get it back now? Please?"
"Nope. I will hold it captive for now." Emma replied whilst tucking the book to her bag. "So, what brings you here?" She asked.
"I will not answer your question."
"Do you have any answer except for 'I will not answer your question?'" The blonde asked in a mocking tone.
Regina doesn't want this. She thinks that this is absurd. She doesn't need to answer anyone's question, especially questions coming from this hot blonde that staring at her with captivating green eyes. Regina shake her head with the thought.
'she is annoying and she is not hot. Fucking Christ. She is hot okay but she is annoying'
'Lie to yourself Reggie. You know that you are just trying to ignore her because—'
'NO!'
She continues to talk with her imbecile brain while the gorgeous blonde was looking at her with amusement.
"You know if you don't answer the question, fine. But this book is mine." She said whilst placing her feet on the bunk trying to get comfortable.
Regina sighed at this infuriating blonde. She doesn't need disturbance especially when she just got off from a stupid conference that she attends every year.
"We're you one of those businessperson who just go here and attend those silly conferences?" The blonde asked curiously.
All she wanted is a night in peace before she goes back to New York but here is a sixteen years old teen pestering her night.
"Where are your parents? Why don't you go back to them and pester them." She said.
"I don't have one. And I don't need one. I'm eighteen. Legal." Emma replied.
Regina wants nothing more but to say sorry to this blonde. She felt something akin to a punch in the gut when she heard that the blonde infront of her doesn't have parents. Who in the right mind would just leave their kid? It's pathetic. She was about to say her piece when she was interrupted by the annoying blonde again.
The curious blonde is making her feel something and it irritates her.
"It's okay. You don't know." She shrugged again.
'is she a mind reader?'
"Okay, I know I am annoying it's just that, I have no one to talk to." The blonde smiled at her sheepishly.
Regina stared at her in awe but immediately looked away and collected herself.
"And your solution is to pester me?" She asked.
"I'm sorry it's just that, you look like you need someone to talk to and I am a good companion." She boasted.
"What makes you think that I need one, Miss Swan?" Regina inquired.
"You've been reading the page of the book for fifteen minutes." She said in a smug tone.
Regina was taken aback by this beautiful blonde infront of her. She didn't know someone will notice her. She was trying to be invisible in the whole ride thinking that she could have a peace of mind but here comes this she-devil trying to ruin her night.
'ruin really Regina? She's your type she will not ruin anything.'
'Shut up brain.'
Silence fell over both of them as the train come into a halt. She wasn't one to pry to someone's affair unlike the blonde infront of her. So she just shut her mouth and try to look at the dark lights that come to life one by one.
"Where are you from Regina?" The blonde pried once again.
"New York."
The blonde sniggered.
"What is funny Miss Swan?" She arched her perfectly shaped eyebrows.
"Small world." The blonde replied and just shrugged. "How old are you?"
"Twenty Two." She said curtly. This feels like twenty questions all of a sudden. She wanted to stop answering every inquiry of the blonde but fuck it, there's no harm in answering silly questions from the mesmerizing blonde.
"so how long are you gone for?" The blonde asked again.
"It's none of your business, but I still have three weeks here. I have matters to attend aside from the silly conference you said." She feels uncomfortable with the way the other girl was staring at her, it's a mix of curiosity and something she can't understand. She's not one to read a person after all.
"You?" She croaked.
"I dunno, until I decided to go back." She replied.
The train came to an abrupt halt once again. The metal wheels screeching across the rail and a female voice can be heard reminding the people to take care of their belongings.
"I had a nice time talking to you Regina." She said before jumping out of the compartment and leaving the brunette.
The book was long forgotten.
Emma was half way towards the exit when she decided to go back.
"Two weeks." She said.
Regina looked at her questioningly.
"Let's explore the city. You and I. For two weeks."
"What makes you think that I will be joining your little adventure Miss Swan?"
"I have your book."
"I don't care. I can buy another one." She lied. That book is special to her and she'll do anything to get that back but she will not tell the blonde that. Unfortunately…
"You know, I know when someone is lying. You can get this book. In one condition, join me." She said.
"But.." she wanted to say that she has plans but she didn't. The company's next plan is for another three weeks.
Emma didn't wait for answer. She pulled Regina's hand and dragged her towards the exit. Regina let Emma to drag her not knowing why she can't seem to pull out of the blonde's grasped. It was easy, she can shout at the guards near the station but she can't find her voice.
Emma twisted her head and look back at her and just smile.
Yeah, she really can't do anything because she realized at that moment, all she wanted to see was the smile plastered on the blonde's face.
This two weeks will be hell.
Too early for Regina to fell in love ta think? Maybe she's not yet there but Miss Swan is such a charming lady and yeah.. Regina's type.
