The day was passing extremely slow for Emma, she just wanted this whole weekend to be over but that meant she would probably never see Regina again and she didn't want that. What was going to happen when they had to go back to Boston? Would they continue whatever it is they had? Emma didn't want to think about ending things with the brunette just yet, she knew it was the right thing to do but, for the first time, she has her doubts about her relationship with Zelena. They hadn't spoken since last night, something that was unusual for the both of them, normally they are glued at the hip and people struggle to hold a conversation with one without the other being present. Things were changing. Emma never thought that a trip to Zelena's hometown would be the downfall of their relationship, I mean, that is why they're drifting apart, right? If they didn't go to Storybrooke, Emma would never have met Regina and she would still be happy with Zelena. The blonde couldn't believe that she had resorted to blaming the trip for kissing Regina, that was a new low, especially for Emma.

"Emma, Emma! Throw me!" A small voice pleaded, breaking her from her thoughts.

Emma snapped out of her daze before picking up the five-year-old and throwing him gently across the pool. She swam slowly towards him before picking him up and helping him remain afloat. She didn't even notice that Regina was watching the two from the edge of the pool. As soon as Emma spotted her, she noticed that her feet were dangling in the water. Emma, feeling mischievous, slowly swam towards her. Regina noticed the look in the blonde's eyes and immediately felt nervous; she knew what she was going to do. "Emma, no!" She said firmly.

The blonde smirked and ignored her warning, edging closer to the brunette. Regina tried to take her feet out of the pool as fast as she could but it was too late, the sheriff had caught her and pulled her in the water. The brunette's initial reaction was to panic, she couldn't swim and the idea of water terrified. Zelena looked up at the sound of a splash, smirking slightly when she saw that her younger sister had been submerged. Emma realised that Regina was struggling to get air because she was panicking underneath the water so the blonde quickly grabbed her around the waist and pulled her up, holding her tightly so she wouldn't go back under. Regina gasped for air and rest her head against the blonde's shoulder.

"Shit, Regina, I am so sorry, I didn't realise that you couldn't swim!" Emma tried to apologise.

Regina shook her head, "Emma, don't worry about it, I'm fine. I had you there to rescue me," she smiled at her.

Zelena's smirk soon turned into a frown when saw the close proximity that was shared between her lover and her sister, she couldn't handle seeing the sight any longer so she stood up from the sun lounger and stormed inside, an angry look on her face.

Emma didn't even acknowledge the fact that her fiancé had just left but Regina did and she knew the blonde was probably going to get an earful later, feeling bad; she removed herself from Emma's hold and managed to get out of the pool. Emma swam to the edge she was standing beside and raised herself up, using her arms to support herself.

"Where are you going?" She asked, hoping that she hadn't upset the brunette.

Regina smiled as if to reassure the blonde. "I'm just going to get changed... And talk to my sister, she didn't look too happy when she left."

Emma turned to look at where her fiancé had been lying, frowning when she realised she wasn't there. By the time she had turned back to Regina, the older woman as already making her way inside the house. Emma sighed and closed her eyes but her moment was interrupted when Henry carefully jumped on her back, shouting for her to play with him. Emma held onto the boy tightly before playing whatever game that was keeping him occupied.

Meanwhile, Regina was just about to enter her bedroom when she was stopped by Zelena.

"You just can't help yourself, can you?" The redhead's anger was obvious.

"What are you talking about?" Regina decided to play dumb; there was no way of getting out of this situation alive unless she lied her way through it.

Zelena scoffed. "Emma is my fiancé, that means we are getting married, it does not mean that you should flirt with her and make eyes at her just because she saved you from your little fear!"

'I didn't mean to hurt,' Regina thought. "Zelena, you and I both know that this has nothing to do with Emma. I'm sorry that you think I'm flirting with her, I'm not, but I know that the only reason you hate me right now is because Daniel is coming back."

Regina wasn't expecting her sister's next reaction, which is what made her cheek sting more than it should have. She knew she must have hit a nerve because Zelena has never hit her before. Regina didn't even bother holding her cheek to soothe the pain; she knew she had it coming.

"That was your entire fault, sister dear! You were so naive that you believed he truly loved you!" Zelena spat at her.

Regina flinched at the redhead's words, none of which were true. "Zelena, do you really think I am that stupid? I know that it was always you! He never wanted me! I didn't even want him, it was mother! She was so obsessed with money and having a good image that she forced that whole relationship! I knew that it was always you but before you blame me for taking him from you, think back to that night, I wasn't the one who left you in that car! I wasn't the one who let my friends take advantage whilst I watched!" Regina knew she was hurting her sister but she needed her to know that she was sorry for everything. "I wanted to help you, Zelena, you were my big sister and they broke you! I wanted to do something about it but I couldn't so think twice before you try and place the blame on me again! All these years I have begged you for forgiveness and you won't even spare a second glance at me! Damn it, Zelena, even Jefferson tried to help you and look where that got him! My husband is dead because he wanted to help you!" The brunette couldn't help herself as she began to break down, her voice cracking.

Neither of the two women noticed their mother standing on the staircase, she had heard their entire conversation. She was both pleased with the information but also scared, she couldn't let her daughters know about her involvement, it would destroy everything. The older woman slowly made her way back downstairs, ensuring that she was neither seen nor heard, and went inside her study. She picked up the phone and dialled a number, as the phone rang; she looked outside the window with cold eyes and watched the blonde sheriff play with her grandson in the pool. Eventually, the person she was calling answered.

"We have a problem, you need to get here tonight, no exceptions," She told the person on the other line.
