Emma's fingers flickered with her magic, then fizzled. "What exactly am I doing wrong?"

Regina grabbed her hands, shifting behind Emma, lifting them toward the sky. "You fill the sky with color. It's not rocket science."

Emma reveled in the other woman's body against her own. Their hips aligned, pelvis to ass and Emma was distracted. But then she registered what the brunette had said. She turned in Regina's guiding embrace and said, "Actually, Regina, fireworks ARE rockets."

Regina's exasperation exploded. "Emma, just do it. It's the fourth of July!"

Emma kissed those dark red lips so enticingly pursed in frustration. She lifted her arms and channeled her emotions, currently bursting at the seams with humor, joy, and love.

Three perfect fireworks exploded in the night sky above Storybrooke harbor in twinkling blue, rocket-glare red, and, finally, purest white.
