A/N I'm glad to see this story is getting some interest and because of those lovely reviews, here's an early update.

The next morning.

"Regina" Mary Margaret said, from the kitchen.

"Yes" Regina replied, sitting patiently on the sofa.

"I have found you a place to stay, I have told a friend of your circumstances and her grandmother said, you can stay at her Inn, until your on feet so to speak"

"I don't know what to say" Regina replied.

Mary Margaret shook her head amusedly.

"it's no problem, it's a bed and breakfast where many people stay and the main thing is, you have a roof over your head"

Regina smiled.

"I will take you there now, if you want?"

Regina quickly stood up and nodded.

And 35 minutes later, they were standing in the reception area of Granny's Inn.

An elder woman then walked out from an open doorway and she stopped for a moment to look at Mary Margaret, then to Regina.

"Hello, you must be Regina"

"Hello" Regina said, nodding.

"You can call me Granny and would you like a forest view or a square view?"

Regina immediately thought forest.

"Forest" she replied.

"Okay, well, I'll show you to your room, since I have nothing else to do" she smirked and started walking off and Regina and Mary Margaret followed.

Moments later, Regina was standing in a medium sized room, with a bathroom attached to it.

"Your be safe here, I've got a crossbow on the premises, so no ones going to even try, coming in here" the elder woman said seriously and Regina glanced around the room and nodded, not knowing what a crossbow was and she brought her wings around herself.

"Breakfast is downstairs at 9am" the woman then said.

Regina's eyes suddenly lit up.

"This is more than I deserve" she muttered and both women frowned, at what she had said.

"I will come and see you soon" Mary Margaret then told her.

"that will be nice" Regina replied softly.

They then said their goodbyes, leaving Regina to check everything out and it wasn't until three days later, that Regina felt confident enough, to leave the bed and breakfast and in that time, Granny had given her some stored away clothes and she had watched the small television in her room, trying to learn the ways of this world.

When she did venture out, after those three days, she found herself wearing a blouse, black trouser and black shoes.

She spent the day roaming around storybrooke and stared in awe at many things, however as the darkness set in, she managed to get herself slightly lost and started to worry.

She found herself stood outside of the town library, when a group of teenagers walked by, loudly speaking and one whistled at her, as they walked past.

Regina froze and she didn't notice a blonde woman, gaping at her across the street.

The woman had not long left her friends house, when she heard someone wolf whistle and she looked over and saw Regina looking around anxiously, but what caught her attention the most, was that she could she Regina's wings, they were spread wide and she stared in disbelief and then shook her head, thinking she was hallucinating.

She then felt slightly afraid for a moment, upon realizing it was real, but that soon vanished, upon seeing the teenagers loudly go by and Regina's wings closing around herand the brunette looked scared and sad.

It was in that moment, when she felt an ache within her chest and before she could do anything, the brunette had hurried off.

And for the rest of that evening, Emma thought of the winged woman and if she had indeed imagined her.

The next day.

"Dad do you believe in angels or winged creatures?" Emma asked suddenly, causing her father to chuckle.

"I don't think so" he replied, while he was watching the TV.

"Well if they did, would you mind?"

He glanced to her.

"I guess not, as long as they don't want to kill us"

A moment later, her mother walked in.

"Where have you been" Emma asked curiously, turning her attention to her mother.

"With Regina and I brought your clothes back"

"Oh thanks" Emma replied, standing up and taking them in her hands.

"You seem to have become friends, with this homeless woman" she said softly and tilted her head, staring at her mother.

"Emma she's not homeless, not any more and she's starting to get back on track" she smiled and Emma smiled.

"Maybe I can meet her soon"

"I am sure you will" her mother replied.

A further three days later.

Emma was out on a second date with a guy called Killian, he was a dark-haired, leather clad, cocky guy and she didn't know what made her agree to go on second date with him, after the first one was pretty awful, but she gave him a second chance.

And this time he took her the a local restaurant, where she ended up being mildly impressed and half an hour into their meal, he was gabbing on about his achievements and Emma sighed to herself sadly and glanced out of the window. Which seemed to cause her heart to nearly stop.

There is she again, Emma thought. Regina was standing near the curb, her wings wrapped around her for warmth, as it seemed she was waiting for someone.

Emma gaped, raking her eyes over the brunette's whole being, before a blonde woman came to stand with Regina and Regina looked pleased to see her. They then they walked off and Emma felt an overwhelming urge to go outside and see where she was going, so she stood up.

"I just need to get some air, Ill be right back" and she rushed off, opening the door and looking right down the street, but Regina was gone. She sighed and went back inside and ended the evening earlier than planned

For the following two days, Emma thought of the brunette a lot, she couldn't figure it out, was it because she had wings? was it because she felt drawn to the woman?. She had no idea.

And as she arrived home late that Thursday afternoon, she was shocked to find the winged brunette sitting in her lounge.

She immediately froze and her whole body felt warm and fuzzy.

"Emma your home" her mother said.

"ye-ah" she mumbled, rooted to the spot.

Regina then stood up, ready to greet her new friends daughter and once she locked eyes with the blonde, she gaped, she had never seen such a stunning human before, her wings opened slightly and fluttered, she thought she might fly off at any moment, but she stilled herself quickly.

Emma had also noticed, how they spread and fluttered slowly.

"Hello Emma" she finally said.

"You you must be Regina" Emma replied in awe, the brunette nodded.

"Regina is here for dinner Emma, you did say you wanted to meet her" her mother smirked.

"I..yeah" she muttered, now taking her coat off and taking a couple of breaths and when she looked back at Regina, the woman was still looking at her and her wings still fluttering softly. Emma felt that ache again and she didn't understand why.

This is intense, she then thought to herself, as she made her way to sit down and Regina waited until Emma had sat, before she pulled her wings in, so she could sit also.

They sat in silence for a moment.

"Thank-you for letting me use your clothes" Regina said softly.

"Oh, no problem" she said back, feeling nervous for some reason.

"Your mother tells me you want to be a sheriff like your father"

"Yeah, it will be cool'" she then cursed herself, for sounding immature and then wondered how old Regina was.

A moment later Emma muttered "Sorry I'm not usually like this, I can hold a proper conversation"

Regina smirked. "Don't worry, we have only just met"

Emma smiled slightly and nodded.

At the dinner table, Mary Margaret rambled on about school life and Emma kept her eyes down on her plate and occasionally glanced over, to see Regina munching on her food or looking back at her and it made her feel happy.

Then After Dinner, they were all stood round the kitchen unit and Emma took the opportunity to take in the little details, Regina's hands, her nose, those beautiful chocolate eyes.

Regina had also noted over dinner, Emma's features and believed she liked the blondes eyes the most.

"So when are you seeing Killian again, Emma?" her mother asked, taking a sip of her drink.

The blonde grimaced slightly "I said I'd call him"

Regina looked confused.

"Emma is dating" Mary Margaret then told Regina and her lips curled downwards.

"His name is Killian" she added and Regina brought her wings out and covered herself with them, In a protective notion and Emma watched her and frowned.

"I..I don't think it's going to work out" Emma suddenly found herself saying and David said "good"

Emma rolled her eye.

"You have never liked him, dad" and he replied "that's true"

Emma then saw Regina's wings move back to their original state. she found it curious and fascinating.

Regina then said

"I better be going, it's getting late, thank-you for inviting me to diner"

"You're welcome, I am glad you're making yourself a home, here in our town" Mary Margaret replied and Regina smiled brightly and motioned to leave, but stopped in front of a speechless blonde.

"I am glad, I have finally meet you Em-ma, I hope to see you again soon"

Emma nodded, noticing slight fluttering of wings, which made Regina tilt her head, wondering if Emma could see her wings but she thought, no impossible.

She then gave a wide dazzling smile and went to leave, leaving Emma frozen to the spot, her mind completely frazzled and by the time she moved again, Regina was out the door and David drove her back to the bed and breakfast.

Thanks for reading.
