A/N: I thought it was time for some pure smut, so here it is! Sorry if it's not your thing, but we'll be back to story-based things next chapter! :)

Chapter 28.

"I can't believe it," Emma blinked incredulously, "I actually can't believe it."

Regina smiled widely, "I can," she said quietly, "My little Columbia girl."

Emma bit her lip as she put the acceptance letter down, "Crazy," she said, "Totally, completely, utterly crazy."

Regina pulled the teenager closer, "You are totally, completely, utterly incredible, my dear," she murmured before taking the woman by the hips and hoisting her up as the teenager wrapped her legs tightly around her waist, "I think perhaps we should celebrate privately before you call your friends, hmm?"

Emma giggled and nodded, "Mm, good idea, knew there was a reason I liked you."

"Oh, just like?" Regina pouted.

"Love, love, love," Emma corrected as they reached the bedroom and she was thrown onto the bed, on her back as Regina crawled over her.

"Much better," she murmured with a chuckle, "Now, how shall I congratulate you?" she pondered, hovering over the blonde teasingly.

Emma's eyes were wide as she watched the brunette pretend to think impatiently, "Oh come on, do I have to get myself off?" she said crassly.

Regina blinked in surprised before she laughed, "So dirty," she responded, "I think I like it when you speak dirty."

Emma blushed and licked her lips, "Yeah, yeah," she muttered before grabbing Regina's hand, causing her to unbalance for a moment before she regained herself on the other, and ran her hand down her body.

"Mm," Regina hummed in the teenagers ear as she ran her hand back up her thigh and settling on her belt, nibbling on her lip as she pulled back to look at the blonde.

Emma nodded her approval and Regina smiled, nipping her on the ear gently as she tugged at the belt, smirking as the teenager let out a groan, and managed to get it open and peeling her jeans down her legs and over her feet.

Regina placed kisses down Emma's jawline and over her neck as her hand ran over smooth, uncovered legs, "You're so soft," she mumbled, "Just touching you makes my heart race."

Emma leant her head back and simply sighed before moaning as the older woman's fingers slowly found their way into her underwear and spread her wetness all over.

"Mm, I can feel your pulse," Regina chuckled as she pressed a little harder.

"Really?" Emma asked, a little breathily.

Regina giggled, "Mm, yes, don't you know you throb when you get worked up?"

Emma shrugged, "Well, yeah, I guess when I…" she trailed off.

"Mm, when you?" Regina led with another smirk.

Emma bit her lip, "I don't know," she mumbled.

Regina chortled, "Yes, you do. Though, I do hope you don't have to do that anymore."

Emma giggled again, "No, of course not. I have you," she said.

Regina's smile widened, "Yes, you certainly do. May I ask you a question?"

Emma tilted her head slightly but nodded.

"Did you ever touch yourself…thinking of me?" Regina asked quietly.

Emma blushed and squirmed a little, "Yes," she whispered.

Regina bit down on her lip and smiled proudly, "Mm, well that is indeed a compliment."

"Well you are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen," Emma commented, feeling Regina's fingers move a little faster as her breath hitched.

Regina smiled again, "You're so sweet," she murmured.

Emma's eyes fluttered as Regina's fingers rubbed on her and she gasped, "Regina," she started, "You know how…"

Regina hummed, "How what, dear?"

"Like what we did last time…was nice…"

"Nice?" Regina quirked an eyebrow playfully.

"Well, I mean more than nice, obviously," Emma blushed, "But like, what if…"

Regina squinted her eyes before understanding, "Tell me what you want me to do," she murmured.

Emma bit her lip, hesitating before she leant up and whispered in the brunette's ear, a little self-consciously.

Regina placed her other hand on Emma's cheek and nodded, "Tell me if you want me to stop, okay?"

Emma nodded, "Okay," she mumbled.

Regina smiled and kissed the teenager on the lips, prying them open and tangling their tongue's together as she pushed her fingers gently, feeling Emma gasp and crash her head back on the bed, practically seeing stars.

"She'll call when she calls, Belle. Seriously, stop staring at your phone," Ruby said patiently.

Belle put her phone down and shrugged sheepishly, "Sorry," she said, "I just want to know."

Ruby smiled, "I know, but you're driving me crazy picking up your phone every five seconds, I mean, it's on loud right? You're not gonna miss the call."

Belle nodded, "I know, it's just… I can't stop thinking about it," she admitted, "Em might still get into Columbia, it's a big deal, Rubes."

Ruby nodded, "I know it is, babe," she placed her hand on her girlfriend's before it reached her phone, "Why don't I distract you?"

Belle rolled her eyes, "I don't really think anything can distract me right – "

Ruby didn't let her finish as she pressed her lips to the shocked brunette's, whose lips quickly responded as Ruby slid her over the couch cushions closer to her.

"Not anything?" Ruby pouted as she pulled away, "I have a few ideas," she whispered.

Belle giggled, "Well, maybe. You are a pretty good distracter," she said quietly.

Ruby grinned widely, somewhat smugly, "I am," she agreed.

With a quick movement she had the smaller brunette pinned to the couch below her. She licked her lips quickly, desire ignited in her eyes as she pressed her lips to Belle's neck, letting her tongue slip out occasionally for a taste too. She felt Belle's hand entangled in her hair and god, didn't she love when her girlfriend did that?

"Mm, you're my favourite taste," Ruby said as she pulled back, "So sweet and completely intoxicating."

Belle blushed, "Thank you," she said quietly as she got lost in the other woman's eyes, "I love you," she said.

Ruby blinked quickly, "What?" she asked stupidly.

Belle broke eye contact until Ruby gently turned her face to reconnect their eyes, "I said I love you," she repeated.

Ruby swallowed hard, her heart humming more happily than it ever had in her chest, "I love you too, Belle," she whispered, "Ah, how'd I get so lucky?"

Belle smiled, "I'm the lucky one," she replied, running her hands from their entanglement in Ruby's hair down her body and settling on her waist. Ruby simply bit her lip, lost for words for once. A little clumsily Belle managed to flip Ruby on her back, switching their positions.

Ruby laughed, looking up at her girlfriend, "Mm, I like this position," she claimed.

Belle smiled as she bit her lip, "I'm sure you do," she murmured as she pressed her lips to Ruby's neck and down her collarbone, her fingers dancing on the woman's waist until she lifted Ruby's shirt and felt the warmth of their skin touching. She moved her mouth down to Ruby's stomach and placed another kiss there, "Is this okay?" she asked.

Ruby tried to contain herself, "Yes," she simply breathed.

Belle ran her hands under Ruby's shirt and pulled it off over her head, it made her happy but somewhat nervous to see the look on her girlfriend's face, but Ruby calmed her instantly by placing a hand on her cheek and smiling. Belle took that hand and kissed each finger before she started on her collarbone again, resting her hand on Ruby's heart, noting the rapid pulse.

"It's all yours," Ruby whispered as she covered Belle's hand with her own.

Then Belle really surprised the other woman, by dragging down one of Ruby's bra straps to expose her breast. Almost immediately, Belle attached her lips to it, gently pressing kisses to it as one shaking hand played with the nipple, which quickly came erect. When it did, Belle pulled it gently into her mouth, running her tongue around it; all self-consciousness gone as she acted on desire, reveling in the way Ruby's chest heaved up and down under her touch. She felt Ruby's hand in her hair and licked her lips as she pulled herself away from her girlfriend's chest and bought her face to meet Ruby's.

"Hi," she said quietly.

Ruby grinned, slightly breathless, running her fingers through the brunette's hair, "Hey," she replied softly.

Belle bit her lip as she smiled.

"Oh damn, girl, don't do that shy girl smile to me after that," Ruby laughed.

Belle blushed, "Oh, shut up," she giggled nervously, "Was it…okay?"

Ruby laughed again, "Are you kidding?" she cupped Belle's cheek, "That was amazing," she mumbled honestly.

Belle giggled again, "Really?" she blushed as she settled her head on Ruby's shoulder, "I'm sorry I stopped… I mean, I know you're ready… but…"

Ruby tilted her head and nuzzled into the brunette's hair, "Don't ever be sorry, baby. You gave me the best gift of all today."

"Oh, it wasn't that good," Belle retorted.

Ruby rolled her eyes, "That's not what I meant," she chuckled, "I meant when you said you loved me," she said.

"Oh," Belle smiled and curled her body to entangle it with Ruby's, "I do love you, Ruby."

And that was when the phone rang.
