Emma was surprised to find herself excited to see Regina again. She had a lovely and fun weekend with her son, but she couldn't help but think about what the brunette could be doing. She found herself craving Regina's presence like a drug.
"When do you have to bring Henry back to Regina's?" Mary-Margarette questioned the blonde. They were sitting together at her parent's kitchen table. Both sipping on hot tea.
"By five." Emma answered.
"Would you like to come back here for dinner after? David is cooking tonight." Emma did enjoy when David cooked. His food always turned out so delicious. Much better than Mary-Margarette's cooking, but she would never tell her mother that. It would crush her.
"I wish I could, mom. But I told Regina I would stay for dinner at hers tonight."
"You two have been spending a lot of time together lately, haven't you?" Mary-Margarette pushed. Her mother's inquisitive nature often got on Emma's nerves. She moved out of the apartment that she had shared with her parents to get some privacy, but it seemed they only try to but in more now that she is gone.
"We are trying to get along for Henry, Mary-Margarette." Emma snapped, blushing a little.
"Hey, don't Mary-Margarette your mother!" David had stepped into the room with Henry. "And you!" He turned to the brunette, "stop pestering our daughter!
"Come on kid, it's time to go anyways." Emma said, standing and grabbing Henry's backpack.
"Bye grandma, by grandpa!" Henry hugged his grandparents. Emma gave a smile and the two of them left.
Emma and Henry entered the Mills' home at precisely five o'clock. Emma knew Regina appreciated punctuality and the blonde definitely wanted to stay on her good side. Emma stepped into the kitchen where Regina was setting the long, cherry wood table. Her heart skipped a beat like a high school girl crush. Emma had had a lot of free time to think about how she felt about the brunette over the weekend. Henry had a strict bedtime and Emma was up alone every night. She couldn't control her mid from straying to the other woman. And she needed to control her urge to grab the woman and kiss her hard now.

Regina was excited at the sight of the blonde. She was in an amazingly tight green tank top that really made her green eyes pop, accompanied by a sexy flowing skirt that showed off the blonde's toned, pale legs. Her golden hair cascading down her back, ending in flowing curls. Secretly, Regina couldn't wait for this dinner to be over and for Henry to fall asleep tonight so she could bring Emma down to their new playroom.
"Miss Swan." Regina greeted the blonde.
"Oh, don't you think we are past formalities, Madam Mayor." Emma smirked. Regina looked up and caught a glimpse of a sparkle in the blonde's eyes. "I think those went out the door when my tongue was inside you." Emma's voice was low so Henry couldn't hear from the other room. Regina wondered what had gotten into the blonde to make her so brazen and bold. She enjoyed it though, feeling her sex pulse at Emma's words.
"Is that so?" Regina handed the blonde a glass of white wine.
"Mhmm" Emma answered, taking a sip of the delicious wine. Regina eyed the other woman carefully, smirking. Regina did not like not having the upper hand in a situation. She decided to wait to battle it out with the woman later, it was time for dinner. The three sat and ate happily. They chatted about many things. Regina loved hearing Emma and Henry talking to each other, teasing, laughing. It warmed her.
After dinner, the three sat and watched two movies before it was time for Henry to go to bed. Both women kissed the boy goodnight, before sending him upstairs.
"Come, I have something to show you." Regina grabbed Emma's arm lightly and drug her towards the hallway. They stopped in front of a deep purple door. Regina was suddenly nervous.
"Was this door always here?"
"No, and it is only visible to you and I."
"Regina, what is going on?" Emma questioned the brunette.
"Follow me." Regina opened the door and led the blonde down a flight of stairs.

Emma stopped at the bottom of the stairs to take in the view. She was in a large purple room that matched the color of the door they had just gone through. There was a bed in the center of the far wall, with a large wooden chest at the foot of the bed. A desk sat against the opposite wall. Shelves lined the walls, stocked with vibrators, dildos and anal plugs. And there were a lot of them, varying in shapes, sizes and colors. Hanging on the walls were floggers, paddles, and crops, also diverse. There were also many different handcuffs and ropes hanging from the walls as well. A black leather couch sat in the middle of the room. It was a lot for emma to take in. Suddenly she became aware of Regina's eyes studying her, no doubt waiting for any sort of reaction.
"It's a playroom, Emma. For you and I." Regina broke the silence.
"Yeah, I got that." Emma said, not meaning it to come out as harsh as it did.
"I know it's a lot, and I want you to think about this. But…Emma, I want this with you." Emma was silent for some time, still taking in the sights.
"When I said I dabbled in BDSM, Regina, I meant I dabbled in it. I've never…something like this…I like pain, I do. But I need to think about this." The blonde didn't know what to think or how to feel. Her emotions were confusing her. She was nervous, she had never gotten in deep with this stuff, but there was also excitement there. The thought of using these things with Regina excited Emma and even aroused her. But she was scared. She needed time alone to think.
"That's ok, Emma. I understand. I want you to think about this. I drew up a contract-"
"A contract? You mean I need to sign myself to you?!" Now Emma wasn't so sure she could get herself into this. Contracts were binding and seemingly final.
"Please, just look it over." Regina stepped over to the desk. It was made of a beautiful cherry wood, a reoccurring theme in the Mills home. She pulled out some papers and handed them over to Emma. "I want you to contact me with any question or concern, no matter how big or small. Just…please just keep an open mind, Emma." Emma took the papers from Regina.
"Thank you for dinner. I think I should go. I have some reading to do." Emma said offering a small smile to the brunette, trying to lighten the dark mood she had created. Both women walked up the stairs and to the front door. "I'll talk to you tomorrow, ok?" Emma said placing a soft kiss on Regina's cheek before leaving. She thought the night was going to go differently. She wasn't expecting to be leaving so early.
Emma's mind was racing the whole drive home. She liked pain, but what kind of pain would she be agreeing too? Emma knew Regina was bossy but she had now idea the Mayor of Storybrooke would be into something like this. She knew she needed to read over this stupid contract and see what she would be in for. So, when she finally arrived home, she went right to her kitchen table and began to read over the contract that Regina had handed her.

Emma needed to talk to Regina. She had a lot of questions that the brunette needed to answer. But that was going to have to wait until tomorrow. It was late and she had work in the morning. She put on her pajamas and crawled into bed, exhausted from the emotional toll this all took on her.
—
Regina was unable to sleep. She tossed and turned, willing herself to fall asleep, but sleep wouldn't come. She was scared. Her and Emma had something good. The two had a natural attraction. It was like they were being drawn together. But Regina was worried she just ruined that. She was terrified that Emma would leave now. Maybe she should have kept her sexual desires a secret? No, why should I have to keep secrets and be unhappy? Regina thought with a large sigh. There was no use dwelling on this, it was in Emma's hands now. She wanted to call the blonde and see if she had read the contract. She even got as far as picking up the phone and dialing Emma's number. But she stopped before she pressed send. She knew what Emma needed right now was space to think. Regina wanted Emma to want this kind of relationship too, she didn't want to force it on her or influence her in any way. Regina was going to have to wait until morning to talk to the other woman. She sighed again and rolled over. Sleep never came.
