Chapter 2: In Emma's eyes

Regina's POV

"Emma?" I asked loudly. Wow, she's changed a lot, she looks even more stronger than what she used to be. She walks up to me with smile.

"What's up Gina?" She greets in her gangster voice. She always gets me with that.

"Hey Emma." I laugh at her. I missed her.

"How are you?" She asked me.

"I'm fine. What about you?" I asked her shifting nervously.

"I've had my better days." She grabs a champagne glass from a waiter.

"So, you're back officially." I say to her.

"Yeah I am." She nods.

"I've been worried Swan." I tell her.

"I know. I'm sorry." She steps closer to me.

"Swan, I can't be close to you." I tell her stepping back trying not to bump into anyone.

"Why not? You love me right?" She asked me.

"I do love you, but something happened while you were away." I tell her.

"What?" She asks in concern.

"I…" I just hold out my left hand showing her my wedding ring.

"You're…You're married?" She stutters with a crack in her voice. I already know she's going to cry.

"Yes. Robin Hood, came back and he asked me out, and it's history from there." I tell her.

"Congrats." She sips her champagne. I know she's angry.

"Emma, we have to talk alone." I tell her.

"I know." She nods understanding.

"Regina there you are." Robin comes up to me. "Emma?" He's shocked.

"What's up?" She gives him a fake smile.

"Wow, what a surprise." He says.

"Yeah, look I have to go, but I'll talk to you soon Regina." She pats my shoulder as she walks away.

"What was that about?" Robin asks me.

"Nothing. It just feels weird seeing each after all these years." I tell him.

"Come on, let's go see Aurora." He smiles at me.

"Okay." We walk over to Aurora and Mulan. I already know Emma is going to have a fit.

Emma's POV

I go to the bathroom and take a long piss. I walk out of the stall and see a little girl who's at least 6 years old. I see her struggling trying to wash her hands, I wash mines first then I lift her up.

"Thank you." She washes her hands.

"You're welcome sweetie." I put her down when she was done. She turns to me and smiles.

"What's your name?" She asks me.

"Emma. What's yours?" I asked her.

"Maddie." She smiles showing off some of her missing teeth.

"Nice to meet you Maddie." I hold my hand out.

"You too Emma." She shakes my hand. "I gotta go. Bye Emma." She waves and leaves.

"Wow, cute kid." I walk out of the bathroom, and I see Maddie run into Regina's arms. Wait, what the hell? Regina has a baby?

"Emma honey?" I see my mom walk up to me.

"Hey mom." I wrap my arm around her.

"You okay?" She asks.

"I'll be okay." I tell her.

"Emma, I know you're pissed about this, and I'm your mom so what's going through your head baby?" My mom questions me.

"She has a kid by him and she's married. I thought she and Robin Hood didn't talk to each other." I lean against wall.

"We thought that too." She admits.

"So who helped Aurora with her party?" I asked examining the decorations in the room.

"Everyone." She giggles.

"In my eyes, she deserves to be with me mom. Everyone knows that." I state.

"Make her see that Emma, you can't do anything until you get up and show her." She tells me.

"Mom, why did Regina marry him?" I say sadly looking down at the ground.

"I don't know baby. You and Regina are going to have to talk about your relationship." She walks over to my dad. As I watch the love of my life dance with Robin Hood, I sigh sadly and head over to the bar and drink my pain away. Tonight is the night that I don't care about anything, I down my drink quickly feeling the burns of the vodka burning my throat. I stand up and head outside. I walk over to the garden and sit down on a chair. I'm too drunk for this shit, I really don't want to be bothered. I feel someone's hand on my shoulder, I look up and see Regina standing there.

"May I sit?" She asked.

"Sure." I shrug.

"Are you okay Emma?" She asked me as she takes a seat next to me.

"What makes you think I'm not?" I question as I take another chug at my vodka.

"Your voice. I can tell when you're upset." She says calmly.

"I'm fine." I shake my head not wanting to be bothered.

"I'm sorry that I'm not married to you." She looks at me with tears forming. Fuck, she's crying. This is not what I wanted to happen.

"Please, don't cry." I beg.

"It's hard not too, I mean you must hate me after what I did Emma." She cries.

"I don't, you mean a lot to me for mento hate you Regina and you had my kid." I smile at the old times we've had with Henry.

"I still love you Emma." She confesses as she places a hand on my thigh.

"I'll always love you Regina. It doesn't matter who you're with, you'll always be mine." I stand up stretching.

"Maybe we could catch up Emma. I really missed you." She looks up at me with a smile.

"I missed you too." I hold my hand out for her to take.

"Thanks." She takes my hand and stands up.

"I'll always be here for you." I kiss her cheek and hold my arm out.

"Still the charmer huh?" She blushes.

"I get that from my dad." We head back to the party.

"Of course." She laughs.

"It's true. Hello, his last name." I chuckle as we walk in. I see my mom smiling at us, I roll my eyes because I know she's gushing about us. "See ya Gina." I head over to Ruby and Granny. I actually had a good time after that talk. After the party I headed back to my hotel for the night, I took a quick shower and headed to bed. I stayed up for a while because all could think about was Regina, and for some reason I was thinking about Maddie too. She's the cutest little girl I've ever seen in my life. I know Henry was happy when he found out he was going to be a big brother, I can see the look on his face know. I don't know how I'm going to tell Regina the truth about where I've been for the past 6 years. Fucking Zelena sent me away after she found out that we defeated the Snow Queen. To be honest when I was in the army I met a guy named Mason Smith. He was one of the coolest guys I've ever met in my life, well besides August. I have to find out why Regina would marry Robin. I turn off my light and head to bed. Tomorrow is a whole new day and hopefully it'll get better.

…

August's POV

I bang on Emma's hotel room door as loud as I could. I hear her yelling on the other side, she opens it with a mean look on her face.

"Morning." I smile walking in.

"It's 7 in the morning." She grumbles in anger.

"We have to find you a job Emma, your mom called me and told me." I sit down on her bed, taking my coffee out the cup holder.

"Jeez, my mom mettles in my shit too much." She goes to her bathroom and freshens up.

"So, how Regina?" I asked her turning on the television.

"She's married and she has a kid." She growls. Huh?

"Really?" I turn to look at her.

"Yep. Aurora had a part last night." She walks out, going to her suitcase.

"And how was it?" I asked flipping through the channels.

"It was good until I saw Robin Hood." She takes out an outfit.

"Wait, she's married to him? I just saw his wife here two days ago." I stand up running my hand through my hair.

"Seriously?" She asks in shock.

"She looked a mess, like she's been beaten and like she's been on the streets." I put my coffee down on the nightstand.

"Okay, so we have to find her and see why she's like that. Robin loves Marian, I just don't understand why he went after Regina." She tells me grabbing her shoes.

"We gotta head downtown to see her. It's crazy, but it'll help us find out the truth." I tell her.

"You think Gold did it?" She looks at me.

"Who knows? It could've been Zelena." I sigh out.

"I thought she died." She says.

"Me too." I say nodding.

We hear knock at the door and I turn to look at Emma, she nods towards the door. I take out my gun from my back pocket. I turn to see Emma with hers in her hand. I open the door and I open my mouth in shock.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" I asked in anger.

End of this chapter. Who's at the door? How cute is Maddie? Which story next?"
