Authors note: Omg, sorry I'm so late! School has just been really busy. Anyway I hope you enjoy the chapter, even though it's somewhat short. ;)

"Emma?" Regina asked in a soft voice. "What are you doing here?" She was surprised when she opened the door and was met by the sight of a very happy looking blonde. The grin that was plastered on Emma's face was disturbing, to say the least.

"Is it about my mother?" Regina asked. She hadn't seen her mother since the last time she sort of visited. And that was almost three weeks ago. Regina just wasn't ready to talk to her mother yet. Maybe never.

Emma shook her head, the grin still on her face. "Nope. This is about shopping!"

Regina furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. Emma had never looked like the type that liked shopping. "You like shopping?"

"Yes, but only if it's not for me."

"So it's for me then?" Regina sighed and leaned against the doorframe. It was tiring to stand long, seeing that she was already huge and just 6 months along. "Why would you like to go shopping with me?"

"Because Daniel asked me." The grin grew a little bigger. "He said you needed new clothes because nothing fit anymore."

Regina's mouth fell open. She felt her cheeks burn with shame. Her shame quickly made place for rage. "Daniel!" She yelled back in the house and ignored the blonde's hard laughter.

He came walking in the foyer. There was DVD in his hand - Harry Potter, of course - that he had planned to watch this afternoon while his fiancé was shopping with Emma.

"What is it, darling?"

"What is it?! You told Emma that I was too fat for my clothes!"

Daniel didn't know what to say. How was he supposed to response to that?! "Emma! You weren't supposed to say that! I told you not to mention that!"

Emma had her hands resting on both her knees for support. Between the laughs she managed to responed. "I'm sorry, it was just too funny!"

Daniel couldn't keep the small smile from his face. It had indeed been very funny.

Regina stepped out of the shower, her hair was wet and it was sticking to her scalp and forehead. She towel dried herself in front of the mirror, taking extra long with her stomach. She grabbed the bottle of cream and put some on her stomach. It felt cold against the warm skin of her abdomen.

The cream was supposed to prevent stretch marks, but it wasn't really working, seeing that she already had two and would only grow bigger and bigger. And bigger. Regina sighed and made smooth soothing circles on her stomach. There was a soft kick against the palm of her hand and Regina smiled.

She washed the oily substance off of her hands and moved to the master bedroom. Regina had already laid out the clothes she was going to wear today. A soft maroon colored blouse that accentuated her curves and black dress pants. And as a finishing touch a small black belt with a gold metal buckle.

She walked over to the closet and pulled open one of the drawers. The drawer was filled with her underwear. Regina chose a dark purple bra with laced details and matching panties. Daniel would surely like it.

The purple fabric felt cool against her legs when she pulled the panties up. She clasped the bra behind her back and grabbed the blouse from the bed. Her long tanned fingers closed the small ivory buttons one by one, but the last three buttons remained open.

The black dressed pants went on easily too. At least, that was until she tried to close the clasp. Regina cursed under her breath and tried again. But the clasp wouldn't cooperate.

"Dammit."

She laid down on the bed and raised her hips slightly. It was a stretch on her back, but she would do anything to get these pants on.

After trying like another ten thousand times, Regina gave up.

"Regina? Are you ready yet? We need to get going." Daniel said as he walked into the bedroom. Only to stop dead in his tracks when he saw Regina. She was lying on the bed, forearm covering her eyes, dressed in only her panties and shirt with her black pants hanging from her knees.

"Ehhh... What is going on here?"

"I can't get my pants on. I'm too fat." Regina said, she didn't even move.

Daniel was glad that Regina's eyes were covered because he couldn't keep the grin from his face. He walked over to the bed and sat down. His hand stroked Regina's thigh and a soothing manner. "Regina, you're not fat. You're pregnant."

Regina threw her arm to the side and sat up. "Could've fooled me. Look at me, I look like a cow!"

"No you don't, you look beautiful!"

"Dammit, Daniel! Stop saying that!"

"But-"

"What's all this yelling about?" Henry asked while he stepped into the room also."

"Great. Now the fact that I'm too fat to fit in my pants is a family moment." Regina said sarcastically.

Henry had finally taken in the thing that was happening before his eyes. "Wait? You can't fit your pants?"

Daniel shook his head. "Nope, but it was sure to happen sooner or later. Seeing that she's pregnant."

There was a moment of silence in the room, that was until it was abruptly interrupted by Henry's loud laughter. "You... Can'... Fit... Your... Pants!" He said between gasps of air.

Regina groaned and dropped back on the bed. "Henry! No candy for a week!"

Daniel got off the bed and quickly walked over to the young boy. "Don't worry, Henry." He whispered. "I'll sneak you some candy." Daniel winked at the boy. "But I think it's best if you leave now so I can talk to your mom."

Henry nodded. "Fine. I've got the feeling that I'm not supposed to be here anyway."

Daniel smiled at Henry and quickly ushered him out of the room.

"Look, Regina. Maybe you can wear a dress today?"

Regina snapped her head to the side so she could look at him. "That doesn't change the fact that I'm as fat as an elephant.

Daniel walked over to his fiancée. He planted both of his knees next to Regina's hips and leaned over her. "You're." He planted a kiss on her lips. "Not." A kiss on her clavicle. "Fat." Another kiss on her lips.

Regina groaned again. "I don't believe you."

Daniel sat back on his hunches and sighed. God, that woman was a handful sometimes.

A hard slap on his shoulder snapped him from his memories. "Ouch!" He winced and rubbed his arm on the spot where Regina's hand had just hit it.

"You deserved it."

Emma dried her eyes with the pad of her thumb. She had laughed so hard that there were tears in her eyes. "Alright so. You coming Regina?"

Regina sighed, she wasn't really feeling up to it, but she really needed some clothes. "Fine, Emma. But only because I need clothes."

Emma rolled her eyes. "God forbit you do something for fun."

Regina shot her a harsh glare. "What was that?"

"Nothing." Emma answered quickly. She knew better then to get into a fight with an hormonal Regina.

"I thought so." Regina walked back in and grabbed her coat.

"I'll see you later, darling." Daniel said while he kissed her softly.

"Yes. But we're not done." Regina answered with a smile.

That smile meant trouble and Daniel knew it all to well. He swallowed and offered a weak smile.
