Had some down time today and felt inspired, hope you like where it's going, I have a few more tricks up my sleeve. Love the reviews and follows, thank you!
As the sun slowly began to rise, Emma stirred to find Regina completely wrapped around her. Feeling absolutely content at the moment she savored the warmth of her love and closed her eyes falling back asleep with a gentle smile on her lips.
When Regina finally stirred the sun had risen and it was growing warm now. She found herself wrapped around Emma, leg over her thigh and arm around her waist and under her. She hadn't felt this comfortable sleeping in her entire life she realized, had Emma been what she was missing, the missing puzzle piece to make her feel complete. Even though it has only been a short time she really felt like everything was different, she hadn't felt the need to do wrong or hurt anyone, she simply wanted to make Emma love her and be proud of her. She was succeeding at this and it made her smile and hold her head high. She was in love, for what appeared to be the first time in her life truly. Daniel never made her feel the way Emma did with just a look. Emma's touch set her skin on fire, she was head over heels in love with this chick and she couldn't understand it, she'd never been attracted to a woman before but Emma broke all the rules, sexual and instinctual.
While Regina was lost in thought gazing upon her love, Emma stirred awake and caught Regina's far off gaze, feeling bold she raised her head and captured Regina's lips in a wet kiss, turning herself on. Startled out of her moment, Regina returned the kiss and then some, raising her hand to cup Emma's face as she intensified the kiss. Finally breathless she pulled back and said, "Well good morning to you too." She smiled at Emma genuinely, she felt happy expect for that nagging feeling that she was missing part of herself, as she was sure Emma had the same feeling. They both loved their son, more than either of them could understand, but that was how love of a child was to a mother, and they were both equally Henry's mum.
Emma's eyes were beautiful in the sunlight and she just smiled at Regina, feeling content with her wrapped around her. Then Emma cocked her head to the side as if she'd heard something, Regina watched her intently.
Before Emma could react to the noise she'd thought she'd heard, there was an arrow pointed right at her face. She froze in place, holding Regina against her, trying to protect her. The arrow motioned her to stand and gingerly she released her grip on Regina and stood up, complying with her assailants request. As she rose Emma was able to take in her surroundings finding they were surrounded by Indians, with head pieces and war paint. She knew they were in trouble. She reached for Regina's hand instinctually, only to find someone else's grabbing her roughly.
They were bound and led through the forest, to where neither woman knew. After walking for what felt like hours they came across a village, Emma could only assume this was where their captors lived. Suddenly there was much buzzing around them, the entire place seemed to come alive at their arrival. Emma tried to take in their surroundings, but they were quickly led into a make shift house of what seemed to be made of leather of some sort.
It was night fall before anyone came in to say anything to them. Regina had broken their bounds hours before, but unsure of how many or where they even were the woman decided to stay put instead of unnecessarily risking themselves, they had Henry to consider.
Just as the sun set and the air chilled, a woman, young and with a kind face entered the tent. She had long black hair and spoke softly as she crouched before the two women, "Please do not be afraid, no harm will come to you, as long as you are honest and speak from your heart." She smiled resting a hand on Regina's arm, and her other on Emma's, trying to reassure the women as a tall, older looking man entered behind her. She moved to stand off to the side as he came to loom over his captives.
"What do you want?" he stated gruffly and with a deep undertone of caution, warning the women without saying so not to lie to him.
Emma stood quickly, only to be shoved back down, "We were shipwrecked, we are just looking for our son, we mean you no harm, Sir." She managed to get out as she hit the ground hard, landing on her side, keeping her eyes on the mans feet so as not offend him again.
Regina looked up, catching the tall mans eyes, "She speaks the truth, we did not realize we were on your land, we are just passing through trying to find our son."
The older man pondered at this, slightly pacing back and forth, taking in what the two women had said to him. After a few short moments, he nodded, as if he seemed to believe them and looked over to his daughter standing quietly in the corner. Gruffly he demanded "Pocahontas please see that our guest," he nodded to the two strangers among them, "are comfortable and get a meal and good sleep tonight, in the morning we release them to find their son, as they have both said." He cocked his head slightly, realizing they were both woman, and had both said their son. As if he wasn't sure he wanted to go down that path, he nodded and existed the tent.
The beautiful young woman dropped down to unbind the women, startled to see they we no longer bound. She eyed them cautiously, but shook it out of her head. "I'm glad you took heed of what I said," she stood and offered her hand to Regina to help her up. Regina took her hand and nodded, "it was simply the truth that's exactly what we are doing, we really do not know where we are, could you enlighten us?" Emma stood after Regina, brushing her hands on her pants to get the dirt off as her stomach growled. She blushed slightly, "sorry we haven't eaten at all today, any chance you could help with that?" the woman nodded and turned to exist the tent.
The three women left the tent under cover of dusk and made their way towards the glowing flames in the clearing in the center of all the tents. Pocahontas motioned for them to sit near a fire and the two women sat close to each other, Emma wrapping her arm around Regina's waist protectively. Upon the fire was some kind of meat roasting, and it was the most delicious smell Emma could remember smelling at this moment in time.
After the three of them had had their fill of food and drink, Pocahontas showed them to a tent where they could rest peacefully and not have to worry. The fear of the day finally washing away, Emma spoke up asking timidly, "Any chance I could bathe? We've been traveling for a few days and well, I'm sure you can understand." The black haired woman simply nodded before leaving them quickly.
"Guess that's a no," Emma pouted as she lowered herself to the ground. Regina smiled at her understanding her urge to be clean, but trying to reassure her with a hand on her knee. "It's okay, you don't smell that bad..." she trailed off smirking. Emma swatted at her hand, eye brows furrowing. Just as she huffed and was ready to shove Regina's hand off Pocahontas entered with a basin of sorts and some clean clothes. "Here, I hope this will do." Emma smiled wide and nodded eagerly. "Thank you so much." She beamed as she took the clothes from Pocahontas hand.
Emma excused herself behind a partition in the tent and wiped herself down, changing into a simple night dress Pocahontas had brought back for her. She had also brought one for Regina, so Emma was quick with her clean up and dressed to give Regina the same chance.
As Emma came out from behind the hanging leather, Regina smiled at her, she looked better, not so warn from their trip as she had a few minutes ago when she'd gone out of her sight. Regina wondered if she looked as bad as she felt seeing Emma all cleaned up. She quickly took her leave and went about cleaning herself up. Unable to keep patient Emma cracked the hanging partition and watched Regina wipe herself down. Her skin glistened in the fire light and she was absolutely beautiful, her skin appearing soft and supple in the light. She wondered what it would feel like to be pressed against her. As her thoughts turned dirty, she felt the breeze of the tent door being swept to the side and quickly turned and sat down, pretending to fiddle with her night dress. Her eyes sheepishly rising to meet Pocahontas's.
She stood their for a moment wondering what she had interrupted, but then simply smiled and handed over to Emma blankets for the two of them. "These should keep you warm tonight, you should huddle together for warmth, it can get cold out here at night." She smiled and turned to leave. "Thank you," Emma piped up, genuinely thankful for the woman's kindness and hospitality. Pocahontas turned her head and smiled, nodding as she existed the tent. Emma went about making up a bed for the two of them and getting everything all setup while Regina finished cleaning up.
When she finally came out, Emma was asleep on the bed she had made for them. Regina gazed upon her, admiring how sweet and peaceful she looked as she slept. She slid in beside the woman who had clearly stolen her heart, kissed her lips softly and then blew out the candle, sleep finding her quickly as Emma subconsciously wrapped her arm around Regina's mid-section and pulled her in close.
Hope you enjoyed, more to come soon. Thank you for reading!
