Emma had decided on wearing a white Nike sleeveless crop-top paired with some light blue skinny jeans. People, wall to wall. Music buzzed in the air. Emma had a hard time to identify anyone she knew let alone her friends. The bass thumped so loudly she could feel every beat. People were dancing, drinking and chugging whatever they could get their hands on. Emma wandered around, her eyes falling on a gorgeous brunette in a short purple fit and flare dress. This girl put everyone else to shame, the way she moved to the music was almost hypnotic.

"See something you like? Or someone, Em?" Ruby Laughed and hugged her friend.

"Wait? Me, nah... I was just checking out this schools dance skills!" Emma stammered. She hoped the lighting was dim enough so Ruby wouldn´t she her blush, for being caught blatantly gawking.

"Sure, Emma! I´m mean we all know Regina´s hot, but you looked like a zombie!"

"Regina?!"

"Yup. Come on lets go see Kat and the rest of the gang!"

"Kat! Quit sucking face for one second and say hi to Emma!" Ruby said pulling Kathryn away from Freddie.

"Emma! You made it! Can I get you something to drink?" Kathryn exclaimed and ran over to greet her new guest.

"Haha no thanks. I´m good right now." Emma responded now fully reassured that she was indeed wanted at the party.

"You sure? We have the finest liquor and the finest of glasses!" Belle grinned with sarcasm and pointed to the table full of beer, vodka mixed with what looked like Kool-Aid, tequila and red solo cups.

"No, really! I kinda only have one strike and i´m back in juvey... so i´ll pass." Emma Admitted sheepishly.

Before anyone could react Regina came waltzing in and hugged a very surprised Emma Swan.

"Hi, Em-ma!" Regina said sweetly.

"Hi...?" Emma said and looked questioningly at her friends.

Ruby spelled "R-O-B-I-N"

"Ohhh..."

"Hey! Just because i´m slightly under the influence doesn´t mean I can´t spell!" Yet again before any one could say anything, Regina decided that everyone had to dance with her. No one had the heart or guts to decline the wounded drunken brunette.

They danced for quite a long time, because Regina kept begging them all to stay for "one more song". After awhile Freddie and Kathryn disappeared, then Belle and Ruby. Leaving only Regina and Emma.

Emma felt someone knock into her causing her to slam into Regina. Expecting the usual response, she backed up as fast as she could and prepared herself for the usual biting remark that followed. But to her surprise Regina grabbed her arm and pulled her back. She was so stunned, she stood still. Regina just laughed, not tauntingly just sweetly and without holding back. "She actually seems happy!" Emma thought. She had never actually even caused the girl to smile. Regina, trying to help the paralysed Swan, put her hands on Emma´s hips and tried to guide her. Emma was still far too dazed to get what Regina was doing. So, Regina rolled her eyes and pressed herself against the confused blonde, gently making her move with her body.

Emma got the hang of it and tried to pull back a bit, after realizing just how close they had become. Regina, however was not having it. She pouted and pulled Emma back even closer. Emma laughed and kept dancing. Who would have thought that she would have such a great time with the girl who doesn´t even usually call her by her first name.

Desire by years and years played loud.

"Is it desire

Or is it love that I'm feeling for you
I want desire
Cause your love only gets me abused

Give me that rush
I want to show you what you've been missing
Am I enough
To keep your other lovers hidden

Where are you taking me?
I can't be blamed

I want you to want me again!"

Regina tilted Emma chin up and wrapped her arm around Emma´s neck. Looked into her eyes, as if to get an okay before moving closer. She stopped a mere centimetre before Emma´s lips, waiting. Until Emma couldn´t take it any more and kissed the frustrating girl.
