Day 2 / Jealousy


Emma sighed loudly as she finally slid the key into her front door and stepped into her apartment, the smell of home relaxing her as she felt as if she was able to finally breathe. She took a few silent moments to lean up against the door as she revelled in the fact that her day was actually finished but frowned when she heard a loud laugh coming from the living room area. Clutching her keys in her hand she pulled herself up from the door and started walking until she rounded the corner. It was then that she spotted the woman she loved and one of the only people on Earth Emma hated more than life itself – her wife's ex.

Regina immediately spotted her and got up from where she was sat at the dining room table, the man with his back to Emma still.

"Emma!" She felt an overly happy Regina place a kiss to her cheek but was confronted with a frown seconds later. "What's wrong?"

"What's he doing here?" She whispered, Regina already sensing the anger in Emma's voice.

She glanced over to him and back at the blonde. "He wanted to get coffee."

"Couldn't you go to an actual coffee shop for that?"

"I couldn't find anyone to babysit Henry. All our friends and family were busy."

"Typical."

"Emma-"

"No, I'm not in the mood for it Regina. I'm tired and today work was hell. I'm gonna go change. I'll see you in a minute."

Before Regina could respond Emma was placing a kiss on her cheek and starting to walk away. Frowning she knew that Emma wasn't happy, then again she knew the way her wife felt about Robin. They hadn't ended on a good note and he'd been hell after they'd broken up. That had caused tension between him and Emma and the blonde had come to hate him for how much he had annoyed not only Regina but her also. His attempts to win her back hadn't been taken well.

"Hi Emma." He grinned, waving at her as she passed him to get to the hallway that lead down to her and Regina's bedroom.

She nodded briskly with a strained smile and covered the gun attached to her waist instinctively with her hand. She continued walking and only acknowledged him with a strained mumble of his name and a barely-there nod. "Robin."

Regina sighed as she watched her wife disappear and made her way back to the dining room table, Robin getting up and facing her.

"I supposed I'd better leave."

"You don't-"

"Regina," He smiled. "I can tell when I need to go. Plus I have some errands to run for work. I'll see you sometime soon?"

"Yes." She nodded with a smile. "I guess you will."

"Ok then. Tell Henry I said goodbye, Emma too."

"I will."

He smiled again and pulled her in for a hug. Regina returned it awkwardly and when she let him go she walked him to the door and saw him out. She sighed as soon as it was closed and knew that she had someone she had to talk to. Her hand came up to run through her shoulder length hair as she made her way back through the apartment and towards their bedroom, opening the door to see Emma placing her gun and badge into the gun safe that was located on the very top shelf of their shared wardrobe.

"Emma?"

The blonde turned to meet her gaze as soon as she had clicked the safe shut, Emma not really knowing what to do other than remain standing in her current spot. That allowed Regina to make her way over to her, the brunette wrapping her arms around Emma's neck.

"There's something I should have done when you arrived."

"Oh, and what's that?"

"Welcome home."

Emma smiled against Regina's lips as they met her own, soon forgetting why she was mad in the first place as she wrapped her arms around the other woman's waist.

"Hi." She whispered as they finally came up for air, making sure to keep Regina exactly where she was.

"Hi."

"Regina, I'm sorry I just-"

"Don't. I should be sorry. I shouldn't have agreed to getting coffee with him in the first place. He kind of bumped into me at the grocery story and before I knew it we were back here."

"Oh."

"Don't worry. It was nothing more than catching up."

"Ok, I trust you." She sighed, Regina reaching up to cup her cheeks as she did so. "I just don't trust him."

"And I know you don't after what happened between us. He was wrong but there's something he doesn't have over us and he never will."

"What's that?"

"I married you, not him, and I have a beautiful family with you. That actually reminds me of something else I need to tell you."

"It does?"

Regina nodded and pulled away, tugging on Emma's hand and leading them to the end of the bed. They both sat down next to one another and Regina reached up to play with Emma's shirt collar to try and hide how nervous she actually was now that she had said it out loud.

"Regina?" Emma questioned, already sensing her wife's nervousness. "Whatever it is, you can tell me. Is there something wrong?" She asked, reaching over and taking Regina's free hand into her own and clutching tightly.

Regina looked up and met her wife's eyes, the police officer's filled with nothing but concern. "It's ok." She smiled, moving the hand she had on Emma's collar around to cup her face, her thumb then rubbing back and forth over her cheek. "It's nothing bad, it's just a little big."

"Ok. What is it?"

Looking up Regina felt nothing but love washing over her from Emma's gaze, her confidence already growing tenfold in the matter of a few seconds. Grinning she turned it around so that she was holding Emma's hand in her lap and lifted in until it was in line with her abdomen. She slowly placed it on her shirt-clad stomach and smiled up at the other woman.

"I'm pregnant."

Emma's eyes flickered from Regina's face down to where her hand was and back up again, the words sinking in as she tried to form a sentence to say out loud. "It worked?"

Regina nodded. "Yes. I'm having another baby. Our little family's going to get a little bigger."

"Oh my God that's amazing!" Emma grinned, pulling Regina in for a tight hug.

"So you're ok with this?"

"Of course I would be! This is the best news I've heard in ages."

Regina smiled and pulled Emma in for another kiss, sniffling as she pulled away. Emma placed a soothing kiss to her forehead and wiped the tears that had fallen from her eyes away with her thumbs.

"I love you so much." She whispered.

"I love you too Emma."

"Mommy? Momma? Why's mommy crying?"

The two of them pulled apart to see a four year-old Henry stood in the doorway clutching his favourite toy in his hand.

Regina sniffled and wiped at her reddened eyes with a smile. "I'm not upset Henry. Mommy's crying happy tears. Come here baby boy."

Henry ran over and jumped in Regina's arms, the brunette pulling him into her lap. Once he was settled she let her fingers run through his hair soothingly. "Me and momma have something to tell you." She started, looking over at Emma who reached out and took her free hand, squeezing.

"What?"

"Well, do you know how you've been asking for a baby brother or sister?"

"Yes."

"I think your wish came true."

"What do you mean mommy?"

"Hold your hand here." She prompted, taking his small hand and holding it against her stomach like she had with Emma. "There's a baby inside there."

His eyes widened in realization, Regina not missing the smile on Emma's face as their son realized what she meant. "You're having a baby?"

"Yes. You're going to be a big brother."

"YAY!" Henry lunged forwards wrapping his arms around Regina's neck, hugging her tightly as excitement bubbled out of him.

"Family hug!" Emma hollered, wrapping her arms around both Regina and Henry. With a kiss to the side of her head Regina couldn't have been more happy.


Regina looked up from her book where she was sat in bed and watched as Emma closed their bedroom door behind her, watching as her wife padded over to the empty side of the bed in her sleep shorts and t-shirt.

"Hey." Regina smiled, pulling Emma in for a quick kiss.

"Hey."

"Did you put Henry down?"

"Yeah, he was out like a light. All the excitement must have really worn him out." Emma replied, sliding into bed next to her.

"I'm not surprised. What about you?"

"What about me?"

Regina shrugged and cuddled into the blonde's side as soon as Emma opened her arms for her. "Are you ok with it?"

"Of course I am. I'm over the moon but I'm just tired. It's been a long day."

"And I guess seeing Robin didn't make things that much better did they?"

"No, not really. I'd finally came home and could breathe and he was there laughing in the middle of our apartment as if after everything he put you through was ok. To say it ruined my mood was an understatement."

"I'm sorry." Regina mumbled, her hand tracing back and forth over the scar on Emma's arm as she rested her head in the crook of the other woman's neck.

"Hey, there's nothing for you to be sorry for. You soon made my day better."

Feeling a kiss to the top of her head Regina continued to trace her thumb back and forth. Whenever she did so Emma always knew that there was something on her mind.

"Hey." She coaxed. "You're doing that thing with my gunshot scar again. What is it?"

"Emma..."

"Regina..."

"It's just that I want you to know that I never intentionally invited him here. I kind of got rushed into it."

"I know, you don't have to explain it to me."

"I won't let him call me again, I promise."

"Ok. I trust you Regina. But that's enough for now. Instead I want to focus on the fact that we're adding to this little family of ours. I know I can't provide much since I'm a cop but I'm going to do everything I can to provide for us, all four of us."

"I know you will and that's why I love you. We'll get by, I promise."

"I hear you. I love you Regina Swan-Mills."

"And I love you Emma Swan-Mills."
