No worries, guys. I got ya back! Here's chapter 6! Let's see Emma's reaction to this, and bring Kilian too, shall we?
Enjoy! – Sorry for any typo
"Em-…"
And Emma was already out of the room and leaving the house as well.
"Emma!" Regina called out for her and then frowned slightly as she watched the blonde woman walk away.
"Oh…I am so sorry, Regina. I didn't mean to, really." Kathryn now felt extremely bad, but this only proved that Emma had feelings for Regina as well.
But Regina didn't pay any attention to Kathryn's words; she simple went after Emma now.
Chapter 6 – Signs part 2
Emma was outside with her back leaning against Regina's car, while hugging herself and rubbing her own arms, because it was pretty chilly today and probably about to snow. She was thinking about to just walk away but then she remembered she had her wallet and cellphone in her jacket; the jacket that Regina is wearing right now. Plus Kathryn's house stayed pretty far away from Emma's, so the idea of walking home was not the right solution and as much as she didn't wanted to be in the same car as Regina, or in the same city for all that mattered, she knew it was her only way to go home and let herself drown with her tears that were threatening to fall down at this very moment.
Regina rushed her way outside and she kept her rushed steps till she was only couple of steps away from the blonde. She could tell she hurt Emma, but she didn't understood why Emma would feel hurt, why she would feel like this. Regina was only a client, no? "Listen Emma-"
"Let's go." Emma quickly said as she turned around, so now her back would be facing Regina while she waited for the brunette to open the car.
"Emma, don't void me."
"I am not. Come on, let's go. My friend needs me, she's in some trouble. So hurry." Emma lied through her teeth but she didn't want to argue with Regina.
Regina rolled her eyes and let out a frustrated groan before walk around the car and open it before get in and drive off.
…
After one hour or so, they finally arrived Emma's apartments, and when the blonde was about to open the car to get out, Regina locked it. "Hmn, unlock it?" Emma asked still looking down at the door and not at Regina. She actually spent the entire trip looking through the window and with her arms folded, ignoring every word that Regina said.
While Regina spent the entire trip driving and trying to cheer up the blonde, by putting some songs she wasn't fond of but maybe Emma was, and then try to talk to her about the party, yet no response. So after a while she gave up and decided to go the rest of the trip quiet as well. Till now, she had enough of her behavior and wanted an explanation. "I will not unlock it till you talk to me."
"Come on, Regina. This is stupid just unlock the freaking door and let me go." Emma shook the door even a bit, hoping that would help her out.
"I won't do it. So you better turn around, look at me and talk to me." Regina straighten her back as she removed her own seat belt.
"And why in hell do I need to do that? Do you want another session? It's more 250 bucks." Emma finished her words with a sarcastic chuckle as she kept her view down and her back facing Regina.
Regina's eye twitched at this comment and she almost lost it, but she took a deep breath and controlled herself. "I want to discuss what is wrong with you."
"Nothing's wrong with me."
"You are acting cold, Emma. You aren't like this. So obviously something bothered you."
"I am fine, and I'd be a lot better if you just unlocked the door."
"Talk to me. Explain me why you are like this and then maybe I will unlock it." Regina folded her arms as she waited.
Emma's grip on the door slowly become weaker as her shoulders seemed to be relaxing as well. She remained quiet for few seconds, before turn quickly around with tears threatening to fall as she spoke in an angry tone. "Okay you wanna talk? Then let's talk. Let's talk about how I am just your fuck toy. Let's talk about how I am just used whenever you want to get away from your shitty life."
"So you overheard me and Kathryn?" Regina knew, but she still wanted to make sure.
"What do you think!? Of course. But no, it's fine. I am just a fuck toy, right? That's why you paying me, yeah? So why the hell should I am mad? Because I don't fucking know what is wrong with me but I just want to yell at you cause somehow you hurt me!" Emma was talking fast, and louder, and was even answering her own questions. She just didn't know what moved in her, but she got very upset all of sudden because of this. Regina and Kathryn's conversation really hurt Emma, she wasn't sure why, but it hurt her way too much.
Regina just watched Emma a bit speechless, she could see that the blonde was really about to cry, and the way she raged at her was obvious that Emma was angry at Regina. "You are not a toy." It was the only thing Regina could say at the moment, she was too caught up with everything that she was still processing it in her mind and wonder what the best thing to say right now was.
"No of course not, I am a fuck toy. It's totally different." Emma said with sarcasm as she cleared her throat and sniffed, trying to hold back the tears. "Now unlock the door."
"No."
"We've already talked, Regina. Unlock the freaking door." Emma was looking away again as she gripped onto the door again.
Regina remained quiet, she wasn't sure what to do, she even felt bad to make Emma hurt. She wasn't sure she'd actually feel such sympathy to somebody, she couldn't believe when seeing somebody hurt, she could feel hurt too, she thought she'd only feel that with Kathryn or with her husband, well not anymore because the tight bond they had disappeared, but still, she was very amazed at how something sparkled between the two of them.
"Regina!" Emma shouted again as she turned her head to face the brunette. "Open the fuc-"
And what interrupted Emma were Regina's full lips against hers.
Emma's eyes were wide open, her tears finally fell and as much as she wanted to enjoy the kiss, she couldn't. It really hurt her, she couldn't just pretend it was fine and then kiss it away, she wanted to run, she needed to run. "No, stop, stop." She mumbled against Regina's lips as she finally managed to push against the brunette's shoulders and move her away.
Regina was a bit shocked that Emma was actually struggling against her and even pushed her away. "Wha-..I thought-.." Regina was more speechless than before. Wasn't this what Emma wanted? Wasn't this the right thing to do? Regina gotta admit she didn't thought through it, she basically acted with her instinct, she felt like doing it, so she done it.
"You thought what? That I'd be okay with another fuck? I am not a hooker, Regina! So unlock the fucking door and let me out!" Emma shouted again with tears running down on her cheeks as she shook the door harder than before.
Regina just stared speechless that the blonde young woman, wondering what should she do now, but with her yells and the sound of the door shaking harder than before, she just quickly unlocked the door and shut her eyes tightly, not daring herself to watch Emma walk away.
When the door was finally unlocked, Emma got out and shut it behind her before run up to her apartment.
Regina simple stayed behind, slowly opening back her eyes as she stared at the empty seat now. How did this happen? How did she allow herself to force Emma do something she didn't want? – Regina dropped her head back against the seat and sighed out through her nose as she closed her eyes once more and began to curse herself thousand times in her mind for few seconds, before drive off and go home.
Streets by Emma's Apartment – Next Day
Emma was leaving her apartment in the afternoon, it was probably four or something, and she decided to go do a few groceries so she could have more food at home, because Victoria keeps taking her food whenever Emma isn't around. That Victoria needs to let go of drugs and buy her own food, but as much as Emma hates few things Victoria does, she can't simple ignore her existence, she wants to fix her friend.
So she was with her hands shoved inside the pockets of her jeans and whistled while having her headphones in her ears and listening to a song that she felt like it was the only thing that could cheer her up after what happen last night. 'What a beautiful day by Michael Buble'.
"I don't know why, you think you could hold of me. When you couldn't get by by yourself."
Emma sang with her eyes half closed as a smile was slowly forming on her face, the song was cheerful for her and it was making her feel better. – Regina had no hold of her, Emma doesn't need her. – So she just kept walking through the street, singing happily.
"It's a beautiful day and I can't stop myself from smiling. If I am drinking then I am buying."
Emma just kept her mumbled singing and even done a little dance, she knew those streets were most of the time empty so she could care less.
…
After the all singing and dancing like nobody was watching, she went to the grocery and got her stuff, which was only three bags full of fruits(only oranges and apples), another bag with anything that has cheese, salt or sugar, cause those are the best snakes, and then the other with a fish and steaks.
So right now she was just walking home, still listening to music, this time she was listening Fuck You from Cee Lo green, let's just say this kind of songs are her only get away to not be thinking too much and be depressed about what happen yesterday.
She looked down at the watch on her left wrist and noticed it was already six pm and she knew sooner or later Victoria would be knocking on her door for dinner, the both always ate dinner together at Sundays, it was like their own thing, obviously other people probably done this, but Sundays were totally the day to relax and the day that Emma was able to convince Victoria to not take a single drug, a single cig, a single drop of alcohol, and the time Victoria is with the blonde woman, she obeys, but god knows what she does whenever Emma isn't around.
Emma right now was just trying to run as fast as she could with the bags on her hands, she didn't want Victoria to get bored of knocking and then leave; she needed a distraction today and Victoria was going to be that distraction.
…
As soon as she reached the street of her apartment, she looked both sides to make sure no car would pass by, after doing that, she just rushed to the door of the building and when she was struggling to get the keys out of the back pocket from her jeans; somebody spoke.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't our Swan."
This voice…Emma knew this voice. She turned her head and there was the little fucker Killian and his dumb friends.
Emma clenched her teeth and took a deep breath as she tried her best to not just tackle him down and beat him up. "What do you want?"
"Going straight to business, I see." Killian kept his smirk as he removed a knife from his pocket and began to stare at the blade. "Well you see… I want payback. You might have knocked me down last time and maybe the slut teacher was there to protect you, but not this time. This time, I am going to be the one letting you bleed." Killian looked up at Emma, he still had a small bandage over his nose, but not bigger than the one he had in the classes.
Emma swallowed a bit hard when she saw the blade, of course she didn't mind getting in a fight right now with Killian but he had a knife and one of his dumb friends had a bat. "Go away, Killian. I don't have time for your stupid games."
"Oh no no, dearie.. This will only end when I put you in the hospital, aye? So don't fight much, maybe the pain will be less."
"Told you to just get the fuck out before I call the cops."
"Oh!" Killian laughed sarcastically. "You? Calling the cops? Do they even like you?"
"What the hell do you mean by that.." The shopping bags were now on the ground but Emma still remained on the same spot.
"Well it seems you got a lot of dirty secrets, Swan. I do know why you moved to this university in the middle of December." Killian grinned.
"You don't know shit, Killian. Just get the fuck off."
"Oh I don't? Then let's see. You were in foster system for a very long time, and no house seemed to like you, as you probably didn't like them because you always tried to run away. Then when you were 18, you finally got rid of that system, and found a charming man to keep ya' warm, who got you pregnant…" Killian stopped for a second as he watched the effect his words had on Emma.
"Ooooh, snap!" One of his friends commented.
"And it seems he dumped you and you had to go to jail because of a crime that you and him done it, or whatever the fuck really happen; I don't care, to be honest. But you had that baby in jail."
"Oooh, motha fuckin' plot twist!" The friend kept commenting. "And little jail baby!"
"Shut the fuck up!" Emma shouted from the bottom of her lungs as she clenched her fists and took a step forward, she was using every last drop she had of self-control to not hit those dumbasses.
"Wait wait, calm down Swan. I am not done." Killian smirked as he took a step forward too.
"Yes continue, continue!" Obviously Killian's friend was there to get Emma more annoyed.
"So the baby turned out to be deaf too, very sad. The state took the baby and you probably don't know where that little creature is right now, me neither, so don't you worry about that." Killian twirled the sword for a second before look back at Emma again. "When you were done with that one year sentence, you got in the university, probably doing your whore jobs; shame on you Swan, selling your body? Shame, shame." Killian shook his head and sighed sarcastically.
"Ugh!" Emma groaned in frustration and took another step forward, now they only had couple of steps to just launch at each other.
"Hold on! I am not done. I just want to let you know that I know every dirty secret of you, Swan." Killian now took a step back. "Anyway where was I…oh the university, yes. You were still a troublemaker Swan, you kept with fights in there, you'd get in the face of anybody that pissed you off, or when you tried to act like a freaking hero and protect some nerds, which started to cost you the chance to stay in that university…however, by some freaking miracle or whatever actually happen you were only transferred to another university. I don't fucking know how you were able to pull that off but it happen."
"There you go, you know the whole fucking story. Does the little Killian want a treat for such good job?" Emma almost barked those words, she was really angry at this guy right now. How did he know so much information about her past anyway? That was fucked up and she wasn't in the mood to be reminded of things that happen in the past; things that deeply hurt her.
"Yes my treat is to make you bleed, right now." And with those words Killian went directly towards Emma, aiming the knife to her belly, but Emma was fast and the blade only was able to leave a scratch on her side and rip a bit of her top.
After voiding Killian's attack, she jumped off the stairs, so she could be away from him and his friends and find anything that she could use against them, and the only thing she saw there was an old water pipe, so she quickly picked it up and looked at Killian and his other two friends who were running towards her right now. She was able to hit one of them with the pipe on the shoulder, which probably broke it and was enough to make him step back for now, then there was the one with the bat, and he was able to hit Emma's leg with it, which made her kneel down on the ground as a groan of pain escaped her lips, but then she used the pipe to smack the guy's ankle as hard as she could, before she could quickly stand up and grab the bat then throw it away as far as she could.
"Well, well, aren't you a Bruce Lee. Figured somebody like you could keep up with a fight." Killian commented as he stepped closer to Emma and his friends who were just rolling on the ground cause of the pain on their bones, Emma probably broke them.
"Get back! I am done with your shit, just get the fuck back!" Emma shouted at him as she aimed the pipe to him.
"That's not how it will work, Swan. I will get what I want." And when Killian finished his words, one of his friends that were on the ground, grabbed Emma's ankles and quickly yanked her, making her fall back and hit her shoulders on the ground as the pipe rolled off, away from them.
"This is how it will end, Swan!" Killian shouted and in a second all we could hear was Emma's loud scream of pain. Why? Because Killian stabbed her, he stabbed her thigh, making her shrink on the ground while screaming of pain. While she done that, he pressed his knee on her other leg, while doing pressure with the knife on her other thigh, and using his free hand to squeeze Emma's neck. "You are lucky, I can't kill you. Cause you know, I don't want to be a criminal like you." Killian chuckled sarcastically.
Emma was actually crying, the pain was intense that brought tears in her eyes, and even rolled over her cheeks, which was probably giving some pleasure to Killian, and she hated it. But right now all she could do was just gasp for air and shrink against him, he wouldn't let her go, and there was nothing she could do.
"Stay still, Swan!" Killian shouted and let go of her neck to only punch her face twice, leaving a cut on her eyebrow and then one cut on her lower lip, as the cheek that got the hardest hit was red.
This made Emma groan again in pain, he was treating her like she was garbage, and as much as she wanted to fight back, she couldn't. He couldn't be squeezing her neck anymore, but she was still trying to breath normally while he kept doing pressure down on her and the damn knife was still in her thigh.
But Emma had her savior.
"Hey, let go of her!" Some feminine voice shouted.
Emma had her eyes half closed as she quickly remembered this voice.
Killian looked back and saw some brunette approaching them, it was a small young woman, in some ripped clothes with that rock style; probably another junky. "You stay back, lad'. You don't know what is going on."
"Told you to let her go, right now! I already called the cops, so you better hurry your fucking ass and get out of here; you and your friends!" Victoria shouted at them again as she picked the pipe that Emma let go and got even more closer to them.
Killian stared down at Emma and frowned, he didn't want to go yet, he wanted to keep beating her, but if this girl wasn't lying, she did called the cops and he didn't want to risk that. So he did as commanded, he rose up and slowly removed the knife from Emma' s leg, making sure she'd suffer, and she was suffering because even if her groans were muffled, the tears just kept coming and that was good enough for Killian.
Once the knife was out, Killian called out for his two friends who were slowly raising up too, trying to ignore the pain they were in. He kicked Emma's stomach, twice, and then just turned around, walking up to some black truck, which his friends got in as well and then he just quickly drove off.
Emma stayed curled up on the ground as she tried to control the screams of pain that still wanted to come out from the incredible pain she was feeling.
"Emma!" Victoria called out for her friend as she dropped the pipe and rushed towards the blonde. – She quickly got on her knees and helped Emma to just lay on her back so Victoria could cheek her wounds, and as much as this could surprise anybody, Victoria was studying to be a nurse, till the addiction got her first and her future isn't so clear right now. "I will call an ambulance."
"Wait no…" Emma almost groaned those words as she grabbed Victoria's wrist. "If I go to the hospital…they will ask questions…the cops will come too…don't make me go through it…" Emma almost begged her friend.
Victoria frowned slightly; she knew Emma needed the hospital because of the wound on her leg, and to see if she had any broken rib cause of the kicks. Victoria still had to check better her eyes to make sure she had no trauma. It was dark already. "Okay come on then…Let's take care of that inside."
