Emma Swan

Regina's quite cute when she's drunk. She tries to continue with being all prim and proper but fails miserably. I still can't believe she ran over here in the middle of the night just to be by my side. Then on top of it, she showed up with my favorite ice cream and wine, it almost made me completely forgot about my breakup with Neal.

"I'm sorry why are we sitting in a bathtub again?" Regina questioned through squinted eyes triggering me to giggle like some school girl.

"The bathroom is the best place to let out a good cry. Lying on the cold tile and letting all your emotions free from their prisons. Allowing your tears to fall shamelessly, it's the most soothing."

"Right, but that doesn't explain the tub..."

"Oh, I don't know. It felt safe," I muttered and listened to the brunette break out into a fit of laughter. "Have you ever done it in a shower? I feel like you're the type who only has sex in a bed...missionary position," I confessed in hopes to coax the brunette to open up a little more.

Regina huffed her annoyance and shot me a dirty look. "Definitely not dear, I like it anywhere, anytime, any position. Graham was crazy in bed. Ugh," she groaned as her mind slowly slipped into the past. "He was so hot. Those abs went on for days!"

I couldn't help the loud laugh that escaped my mouth. I love when she divulges in her dirty little secrets and it's even better when she's intoxicated like this.

"How about you, Miss Swan?" She ripped the wine from my hand. The bottle pressed into her thick lips before her head fell back to swallow the last of the alcohol.

"I may have only slept with one guy, but we were everywhere," I giggled at the memories before a sharp pain reminded me of his departure. I'm alone now. He left me. I glanced through my eyelashes to discover Regina staring intently with a small pout. Those thick red lips always painted to perfection..."Gina...did you ever experiment in college?"

The intoxicated woman stole my pint of ice cream and scooped a greedy bite into her mouth.

"Like what?" She innocently asked, not bothering to look up from the carton.

I examined the way she slipped another scoop between those sexy lips. She spun the spoon upside down and dragged the cool metal slowly across her wet tongue.

Dear god she's sexy. Sexy? I gulped loudly as my mouth instantly dried up from my realization. I reached for the bottle of wine, to wet my whistle but then I remembered she had finished the last drop.

"Did you ever experiment with a girl?" Her squinted brown eyes were now twice the size as she froze with the spoon between her lips.

"Uh...no," she mumbled around the utensil.

"Well that's what college is for right? Experiment. I feel like now's the time."

"I'm not in college anymore Swan."

"I know, and I only have one month left so I better do it now."

"Ruby's in the next room, I'm sure she'd be willing," Regina mocked but I think I saw a flash of jealousy cross her drunk eyes.

"I can't with Ruby, she's like my sister."

"There's another room with another brunette."

"Belle is too prude. I would scare her off so fast," I laughed at the thought of Belle running from me if I ever tried to kiss her.

"Then tell me who would you want to experiment with?" Those big brown eyes rolled dramatically before they locked onto mine.

I shifted, so I was resting upon my knees. I placed my palms flat against the floor of the tub and leaned forward, invading Regina's personal space. I didn't say a word as I looked deep into her eyes. I heard the soothing sounds of her breathing pick up with speed. I couldn't stop myself from shifting my eyes down to see her full chest rising and falling at a faster rate. My eyes flicked back up into her brown irises which were darker now, full of lust and desire. An audible gulp resonated between us as her throat strained to swallow. I swear everything around us stopped. Everything slipped away and all that was left was her and a bathtub.

"Emma," breathlessly fell from her mouth provoking a shiver to run down my spine. "We can't. I don't want to ruin our friendship. You're all that I have."

"We won't ruin anything, if we don't let it. I bet it will bring us closer," I persuaded the woman as I leaned a little bit closer. Her breath hitched and knowing I was doing this to her was beginning to turn me on.

"What if-"

"Stop. No what if's. Right now, in this moment, do you want to kiss me?" She bit her lip not wanting to answer but I needed her validation. I was feeling alone and vulnerable. I needed her right now to take all the pain away, as selfish as that may be. "Well I can tell you, that right now I want to kiss you," I admitted, watching her face flash ten different shades of red. My eyes didn't stray, I continued holding her gaze. "Would you hate me if I kissed you right now?"

Her plump lip was still clenched between her teeth while she shook her head no. I reached up with one hand, placing my index finger below her chin. I used my thumb to pull her lip free from her pearly white teeth. I gently swept my thumb across her bottom lip, feeling the indentation from her teeth against her silky skin. My thumb moved slowly back to her chin as I leaned forward enclosing the space between us. My eyes dropped to her parted lips then back up to her eyes.

I lightly brushed my lips to hers, feeling the weight of the world melt away. Our mouths moved slowly as we took in the moment. The soft snapping of our lips as we moved as one, was the only sound to be heard. I felt high off the sensation alone and I don't believe the alcohol has anything to do with the feeling.

In a snail like pace, not wanting to scare her off, I parted my lips and allowed her tongue to take the lead. We were both slow, gentle and relishing in the moment. Her tongue was like silk as it tentatively swept across mine. We molded together with ease, like we were meant to fit together this way. A soft moan stirred in her throat, traveling through her mouth and vibrating into mine. That's the moment Regina pulled away.

"I'm sorry," she whispered as her eyes nervously casted to her lap.

"Why are you sorry? I kissed you."

"I-I...I," she stuttered looking adorably flustered. I ducked down in hopes she would allow our eyes to meet again.

"I enjoyed it," I smiled confidently.

"As did I," she coyly whispered so quietly, I almost missed it. My head fell forward from feeling slightly bashful from her confession. "Maybe a little too much."

I chuckled softly at her admission, partly because she looked absolutely adorable and partly because I was nervous of feeling something more for her. My head was spinning at the thought of having romantic feelings for Regina. I started to feel light headed once I realized Neal just left and I'm already seeking attention from someone else.

I looked back up to find Regina's finger coated in the creamy chocolate. I shot her the most stern look I could manage through my drunken state. In return, Regina flashed me the most confusing smile I had ever seen. It was a cross between innocent and ungodly sexy.

Her finger smeared the melting ice cream down my nose. We both laughed softly at this but soon we fell silent when her mouth ended up around my nose, sucking up the sticky mess. My heart pounded against my sternum while I fought with my lungs to keep my breathing normal. There was a palpable tension between us as we stared into each other's eyes.

Fuck, her stares are intense.

Regina's fingertips lightly pressed into my shoulders guiding me to lay back against the tub. Her delicate fingers gripped both sides of the tub as her legs straddled my thighs. The brunette's hands then fell to the tub behind my head.

I studied every move she made with adoration. Each second was tantalizing, and I couldn't process what was happening between us. Her thick raven tresses fell, surrounding each side of her face. She bit her lip once more as she moved in closer, sending a flutter from my stomach down to a place that shouldn't be this excited right now.

I could never let her know what that lip bite does to me.

This time she took the lead, connecting our lips once more. I sighed with relief because she honestly takes all the pain away. I know I'm being selfish, relying on her to heal my pain but she's the only one that makes me feel this way.

I was unsure where to place my hands, if I should take control of the kiss or if this should even continue. Kissing a girl was all very new to me...to her, to us. I finally decided to relax and allow my instincts to take control. I ran my fingertips up the back of her neck until I reached her silky strands of hair. Once I was almost at the top of her head I dragged my fingernails back down her scalp gripping a fist full of hair. I tugged gently hearing a sexy moan rip from her lips. Again, Regina pulled her mouth from mine producing a pout at the loss of her warm lips.

"I should be going," she mumbled looking completely dazed.

I couldn't decipher the meaning of the haze clouding over her lazy eyes. Was it from the amount of alcohol she consumed tonight? Was it lust from the intense kiss we just shared? Or was it simply confusion of our situation?

"Please stay. Nothing has to happen. I just..."

A lump was forming in the back of my throat as my sight blurred from unshed tears. My swollen eyes stung from the liquid threatening to be released. I couldn't lose her, not now, not after everything. I know I am being unfair, but I just don't want to be alone right now.

Regina pressed her finger firmly against my lips.

"I know Emma, I'll stay."
