I forget to breathe as my eyes go back and forth between my sister and Emma. I`m still trapped between the blonde`s body and the wall of my living room.
For a moment, a sense of déjà vu washes over me as I find myself in the stables all those years ago. I am in Daniel's arms and Snow has just seen us. I knew that there would be severe consequences after that. And look at what happened.
And now...Reina saw me making out with Emma.
"That..." my sister shakes her head while Emma detaches herself from me.
I straighten up and pull down the dress which was gathered up on my thighs. I gaze at the blonde. Her eyes are about to pop out of their places. I turn to my sister.
"I-I should go," Emma says uncertainly and turns to walk away.
"No, Emma, stay." I try to stop her by grabbing her arm.
"I..." I gaze at Regina`s sister. "Uh…" is the only sound I can let out of my mouth which is wide open from surprise. I blink a few times, allowing the images to enter and go to my brain. I hope it can analyze them. Twin sister? They look so much alike.
"Hello, I`m Reina. I`m Regina`s sister." She takes my right hand in hers and shakes it. I just stand there like an idiot, but I`m not sure why. Is it because Regina has very hot twin sister or is it because I was twat-swatted?
"I`m...Emma Swan. Regina`s Sheriff...I mean the town`s Sheriff," I stutter and when the words sink into my brain, I realized I`ve said gibberish. I feel a little relief when they laugh.
"Emma, my sister knows all about you," Regina says and I wonder what exactly she said to her. How much Reina knows about me?
"Well...I can`t say the same about you. Sorry." I flash a shy smile at Reina.
"Don`t worry, we will have enough time to get to know each other because I am staying here."
"Really?" Regina asks with her eyebrows lifted almost to her hairline.
"Yes, Regina, I`m here for good." Reina`s voice is so cheery and her smile takes over her face. It`s like she is sharing the biggest and happiest of news.
"I need a drink." Regina`s face is not showing happiness at all. Her lips are closed in a thin line and she goes to the cabinet that holds her alcohol.
"Great, me too." Her sister joins her and I stand in the middle of the room, feeling a little left out.
"I`m...going to go now. I`ll leave you two to catch up." I start walking backwards when the sisters turn in sync. I feel like I`m going to pass out. They are so gorgeous. I was just making out with one of them. I`m so horny and my core is aching for attention. And now there are two of them. I mean, I can barely manage to think in Regina`s presence, and now her sister is here, only serving to double the beauty in the room.
"Emma, are you feeling well? Why are you all red?" Regina leaves her glass on the table next to me and comes even closer. Shit. She puts the back of her hand on my forehead. Oh, she wants to see if I have a temperature. I do have one, but it`s not there.
"No, no, no, I`m... fine. Really." I step back from this sexy as hell woman. I can't be close to her right now with her sister watching my every move with those beautiful brown eyes... Stop it, Emma. You want Regina, not her sister.
"Please, Regina, I have to go. I`ll call you." I storm out of the house as fast as I can.
Once I shut the front door, I take a deep breath, inhaling the fresh air. I start walking towards Mary's apartment, silently thankful that I came without the Bug. Now I`ll have the time to cool off and think about what just happened.
Regina has a twin sister that looks exactly like her. The same short, black hair. The same brown eyes that throw the same lustful and lingering looks at me. The same red, full lips with the same smirk. She was dressed in black leather pants tucked into black knee-high boots. The upper part of her body was clothed in a dark blue blouse with three buttons undone showing enough of her breasts to make my heart go wild.
The strange and disturbing thing was that I felt like something is off with her. She may be Regina's sister but the aura she lets off is so different. She has the same exterior as Regina, but what is inside her couldn't be any more opposite.
Soon, I enter the complex where Mary's apartment is and start to climb the stairs. Once I'm in front of the flat, I take out my keys and unlock the door.
"How was your date?" MM`s voice creeps through the darkness.
"Fuck!" My heart nearly jumps out of my chest. I place my right hand over it, trying to calm it down, as the other closes the door.
Mary Margaret is lying down on the couch, her head resting on its arm so she could see when I came in. She is wrapped in a blanket and reading some book. She knows what happened in the station earlier. She isn't happy.
"Shit. I forgot my jacket at Regina`s," I state and she starts laughing at me. "Don`t laugh. It`s not funny at all."
"Actually, it is." Once she pulls herself together, she stands up and turns to me. "Let`s talk over a cup of hot chocolate with cinnamon. I`ll make it."
"Damn, you read my mind," I say.
She walks over to the kitchen area and takes two mugs.
"I`m going upstairs to change in something more comfy." I climb the stairs leading to my bedroom, taking two steps at a time. When I enter my room, I reach to grab the collar of my jacket and realize, once again, that I don't have one. It's at Regina's. How am I going to get it back? Will Regina come and give it to me? Or am I supposed to go there and pick it up myself?
I shrug my shoulders and begin to strip everything, leaving just the red boxers on. I grab a white tank top and a pair of my jogging pants. Yes, that`s very comfy.
I head back downstairs and sit next to Mary, relaxing my body on the couch.
"So, was the date a total disaster or do you just look like it was for no reason?" she asks and I sigh.
"Where should I start?" I take a sip and the hot liquid burns my throat, but the burn from my desire for Regina is stronger.
"From the start would be nice."
"Well...the dinner was kind of nice. I mean...we talked, we listened. It felt awesome. It felt..." I drift of remembering the feeling and the warmth, "right."
"Wow. And there was no fighting or anything like that?" Mary asks after she takes two sips from her mug.
"Everything was great. We mostly talked about how our work was during the day, but it felt important; maybe because we have never talk about normal stuff. It was always either work related or arguing over Henry. And every time it ended with us fighting. But tonight...the small talk about the work day was significant. It was like getting to know another side of each other. We know we can stand up for ourselves. We know we can fight. We know we both want what`s best for Henry. And yet there is so much more. Now that we are...whatever this is..." I pause for a second. "We are dating. Yes, we are dating." I feel proud of this conclusion. And happy too. I`m very happy. I can`t stop grinning.
I gaze at Mary and see that she does not share my joy.
"You know, I`m going to explore what is under those powerful suits."
Mary frowns at that.
"No, I didn`t meant it like that. I`ll...I want that, too. But I want to know her mind and body. I want all of her. Not just bits."
"You sound like you are starting to fall in love with Regina," Mary whispers with her mouth hovering over the mug.
"I`m not starting, I am." The truth escapes before I can even process it in my mind. Shit. I am. Yes, I am. I am in love with Regina Mills. How the fuck did this happen? When? Where was I? Why I haven't admitted it before? Does she feel the same?
Mary puts a hand on my knee and rubs it in a soothing manner.
"I`m glad that you are feeling this way, but it`s Regina and I`m afraid that she might hurt you. Are you sure that this isn`t just some big plan? A scheme? Because just yesterday, you told me that she framed me for Kathryn`s alleged murder. You told me that someone faked the DNA results. You know it's Regina, but you have no proof. How are you sure that she isn't trying to play you again to throw you off her tracks?" Her voice sounds confident and firm for the first time since I`ve been here. She has never sounded so sure of what she is saying. Her words have never been so structured.
"And what made you change your opinion of her so quickly? Did you sleep with her?"
"No."
"Then what is it? You just make out with her on your desk, and out of the blue, you are on her side?" She shakes her head not understanding anything.
"Ok, let me explain it to you the best way I can." I put my mug on the table and hold my hands in the air like there is a ball between them.
"I have been with a lot of women. I know when a woman is interested in me. Regina was literally melting in my embrace. She was..." I close my eyes and I was in the station again. I was trapped between Regina`s legs and I felt her muscles... "quivering. I could feel her need for me which I've never felt from anyone before. Maybe there is a plan to put me on a leash, if you want to call it that...but her desire for me is as real as mine is for her. And it`s not the shallow desire of the flesh, Mary. It comes from deep inside." I put a hand over my heart subconsciously. "I don`t know where from exactly, but it`s pulling me towards her and I can't stop it. I don't want to."
"I don't understand it, but if that's what you want, I can't stop you. But promise me you'll take your time before going too far with her." She sounds like a mother making sure her kid doesn't get hurt, like the mother eagle watching over her eaglet.
"I was going to, but her sister walked in on us and..."
"Reina is in town?" Mary's eyes widen.
"Yeah, you know her?"
"Yes. She loves in New York, I believe. She isn't around much."
"Now she is back and she is staying." I say much to my dismay. I don't like her at all. "She saw us and started laughing. It was really strange."
Mary and I fall into an awkward silence for a few moments, drinking the rest of our chocolates.
Why did she laugh? That woman is really off. There is something amiss in her.
"Maybe she laughed because you are a woman and Regina...Well, no one would've thought she'd be with a woman."
"That is not something to laugh about," I state, offended by her words. "I'm going to bed. Night." I go to the sink to wash my mug.
She tries to stop me on my way to the stairs but she pulls back. I know she regrets her words, but I need to be alone now.
"What do you mean you are staying?" I snap at my sister. I am so pissed that she's the reason Emma left.
"Is this part of some dirty plan of yours?" Reina is sitting on the couch with her drink in hand and looks at me.
"I don't have a plan. Don't change the subject." I pace back and forth from one end of the couch to the next.
"Since when?" I stop and throw her a death glare. "Sit down. You're making me sick; all this moving around so fast," she says like this is the most natural satiation.
I sit across my sister and relax on the couch's back. I stare at the TV in front of me. I can see our reflections on the black surface.
"This isn't a plan..." my voice dies when I realize what I just said. It's not a plan. It's real. I feel something. For the first time since...
"Regina, what is going on? You don't do things just on a whim. There's always something that will benefit you." Her voice snaps me out of my thoughts. I look at her and I see the Evil Queen with her stone cold face and piercing eyes.
I don't know why, but my sister's words feel like daggers in my heart. I want to control everything and everyone so I can be safe. But with Emma, I feel something that is out of my reach. I feel warmth that washes over me. I feel a pull towards her and I don't want to let her go. With her, I feel safe.
"Maybe I just want to get laid," I snap at my sister who gazes at me like I have three heads and snorts.
"If that's the case, why did I feel electricity between the two of you when I entered the room? Why did you look like a lost puppy when she left?"
I throw a death glare at her, but I know it won't work. Not with her. She waits for me to speak. I look at the wine glass before me and trace its edge. The cold glass is giving me some kind of comfort, even peace. Peace for me? I can't have it. I doomed myself to never have anything positive from the moment I turned into the Evil Queen. From that moment on, I did only evil and horrifying things.
"Do you feel something that is...how do I say it...outside of the darkness?" Reina asks me quietly.
That is exactly what I feel.
"No." I know that she can help me. She is the one person that has never left my side. But I still can't talk about Emma Swan.
"Is that so?" She knows me too well to believe me. "And here I thought that she, being the Savior, has to, you know, save you. You feel a pull towards her because she is a ray of light. She is the one that will break the curse and you can't do anything to stop her. You can't kill her, you can't drive her away from the town. All of this is destined to happen."
"So you are saying that I'm powerless against her?"
"Yes." Reina nods before taking a sip of her glass.
I exhale loudly and throw my glass in the fireplace. I stand up abruptly and start pacing around the couch.
"I'm the Evil Queen. I can't be powerless against some little, pathetic blonde." I snarl and I wish I had magic now. I want to bring a few buildings down to ashes. God, I miss my old land.
"That`s my sister. But the only problem is that she is anything but pathetic. She has pure light magic because she is a product of True Love," Reina continues to speak calmly.
"I know." Nothing is pure, I say to myself. It's light magic because, and only because, it is a product of True Love.
"Then you should take advantage of that."
"What do you mean?" I sense some form of plan. Big plan. I sit next to Reina quickly.
"You know she is meant to break the curse. There is no escape from that." I nod and she continues. "But what if..." she leans to me and whispers "...you have her on your side when that happens."
I smile at her and she carries on with her plan.
"After the curse is broken, magic will come to this world. And you and I need a powerful ally against Rumple. He has always wanted to create True Love. He even tried by getting a hair from Snow and Charming."
"You do know that if you want to hold True Love in your arms," I stop for a second, "as a portion, you need both kind of magics – light and dark, don't you?" I ask her not sure if she is playing dumb or just ranting.
"I know. That's why he couldn`t do it." She looks at the screen before us. "But we..." she wraps her left hand, the one not holding the wine glass, around my shoulder, "are going to have light magic on our side."
"Yes, we are." I agree with her and put my head on her shoulder. How I missed her by my side.
