Sorry for the delay, I was waiting for more reviews honestly and editing. I really wanted this chapter to be perfect!

Hope you like it!

Chapter 7

"Spit it out Swan," Regina said with her eyebrow raised.

"I was just curious, what's in this room?" Emma asked nervously, the brunette looked a little upset.

"That's for me to know, not for you to find out," she replied, "Bathroom's right there," she pointed to a door that was two doors down.

"Thanks," Emma mumbled, "Regina I-"

"Let's just not talk about it," Regina sighed.

"But wait, I don't want you mad at me. Ever since last week you've-"

"Left you alone, I respect your wishes, you want a boyfriend. I won't be able to...control myself if I don't stay away from you, excuse me," she said before walking off.

Emma dropped her head a little, she did hurt Regina's feelings the other day. She sighed and went to the bathroom. When she was done urinating, she found Lily sitting on the couch, on her phone, texting Killian.

"You miss him huh?" Emma teased.

"Yeah, he asked me to be his girlfriend but I didn't give him an answer," Lily shrugged.

Emma gasped, "Really? That's so cute. Why didn't you answer him? He totally likes you more than any other girl."

"I know and I like him back but...I don't know Emma, can I trust him?" Lily asked.

"Oh...the ultimate question. Well I say trust him until he gives you a reason not to," Emma sighed.

"Agreed. I'm going to answer him," Lily smiled.

"Cool...sooo...what's in the room with the black doors?" Emma asked.

Lily smirked, "I don't know, I haven't seen it. Want to find out?"

"Uh duh, but the doors are locked," Emma mentioned.

Lily shrugged, "Wait till she goes to sleep and steal the keys."

Emma smirked this time, "Sounds like a plan."

"Prepare yourself Emma," Lily said.

"What does that mean?" The blonde asked.

Her best friend simply smiled and shrugged.


Emma was relieved when she saw Belle leaving the condo with Jefferson. She thought she would stay the night with Regina but apparently that wasn't the case. Now it was just her, Lily and Regina in the condo at 2:23am.

"Gina, can you take us to the mall tomorrow?" Lily asked, "PINK is having a sale."

"What?! They are!?" Emma asked with wide eyes.

"Yup, just got the email," Lily smirked.

Regina groaned, "You seriously need a car Lil but sure, why not take a trip to the mall. I'm going to sleep."

"Good night Regina," Emma said sweetly.

The brunette sucked in a breath, "Goodnight...my little Swan." She wanted Emma bad, it was getting to the point where she almost couldn't stand being around the blonde.

Lily gave her best friend a knowing smile, she didn't care if she liked Regina, she just wanted her sister to be happy and she wanted Emma to learn to be herself.

"Emma, you need to be more aggressive," Lily said lowly.

"I don't know how, I've never done...this before," Emma sighed, "She probably hates me."

"I highly doubt that," Lily teased, "She'll be knocked out soon though."

"Good, so how do I tell her I...like her?" Emma blushed.

"Don't tell her, show her," Lily suggested.

Emma had no clue what to do, she didn't even fully understand what her best friend meant. Lily watched Emma think, she secretly hoped Regina doesn't hurt her best friend.

Lily cracked Regina's door open thirty minutes later, Emma and her poked their heads in, "Ok, she's asleep," Lily whispered.

"Where do you think the keys are?" Emma whispered.

Lily shrugged and tipped toed in the room. Emma followed and looked at the sleeping brunette in the bed, she smiled to herself.

"Found it," Lily smiled as she held up a black key.

Emma smirked, "Let's go."

XXXXX

"Ok you ready?" Lily asked.

"Yes, I think," Emma chuckled.

Lily unlocked the doors and opened them, "Holy shit."

Emma's eyes went wider than they ever have. Floggers, ankle & wrist restraints, collars, bondage rope, whips, and paddles, it was all there. The room was dimly lit, Lily began to walk around, Emma just stood at the door, examining everything.

"Dude…" Lily started, "Come look at this," she said before picking up a paddle.

Emma slowly walked over, "Looks like it hurts."

"I thought I'd be freaked out but this is oddly...cool," Lily admitted.

"Wait...you knew?" Emma asked.

"Well yeah, kinda. I mean I had an idea but-"

"What are you two doing!?" A fuming Regina asked from the door.

Lily jumped and dropped the paddle, "Hey...sis, what's up?"

"Out. Now," Regina glared.

Emma quickly left the room, refusing to make contact with the brunette. Lily tried to explain to her sister, "Regina, we just wanted to-"

"To what? Invade my privacy?! I can't believe you Lily. How dare you show her this?!" Regina yelled.

Emma was just outside the door, listening. She didn't mean to make Regina upset, she just was curious.

"Regina what's the big deal? Relax ok? She wasn't even creeped out, she-"

"Lily you don't understand, I don't want her knowing-"

"Well she knows now, just deal with it. I'm sorry ok?" Lily exclaimed before walking out of the room.

"Ugh," Regina sighed, "Thanks a lot Lil, now she'll never be mine," she sighed once more before storming out and slamming the door.

Emma stood there for a few minutes after the two of them left, it dawned on her that Regina didn't lock the door. She reached out and opened the door, she looked around the room once more. She sat on a chaise in the corner. What does all of this mean? So many questions ran through her head. Why didn't Regina tell her? Did she want to use any of this stuff on her? What did Regina mean by "mine"?

Emma looked over the room once more, she wanted to understand it all. This didn't change the fact that she liked Regina so if they were going to move forward, Emma needed some answers. She got up and turned off the light, Lily left the key in the door, Emma locked it back, snatched it out, and walked to Regina's room.

She slowly opened the door, "Regina?"

"What do you want little Swan?" The brunette asked from her bed. She had been laying there staring at the ceiling.

Emma walked inside the room, "I just wanted to give you your key back…"

"Just put it over there," Regina instructed.

Emma sighed, "Can we talk? Please?"

"What do you want to say Swan? Want to tell me how I'm a freak? That you want nothing to do with me and you wish for me to leave you alone? Or that I'm sick in the head and have a mental illness?" Regina suggested.

"What? No, I would never judge you like that. I thought you knew that…" The blonde frowned.

Seeing Emma upset pulled Regina's heart. The blonde was driving her crazy, she just wanted to hold her. Regina sighed, "I'm sorry, I'm just really upset with my sister. I didn't want you to find out about my...lifestyle."

Emma crawled into bed with Regina, "Let's talk."

Regina stiffened, she hadn't shared a bed with somebody since Dani, "What do you want to know?"

"Everything," Emma said.

"I can't tell you everything, let's start with the facts. I live a BDSM lifestyle, I like it, I'm into it, it pleases me, all of the above. Danielle introduced me into it," Regina said.

"Ok, how many mistresses have you had?"

Regina chuckled, "You've done a little research?"

"Well, I know there's a dominant and a submissive, that's about it. Are you like deep into it? Like do you punish and stuff?" Emma asked oddly.

"Uh yeah I guess you could say that. Why?" Regina asked.

Emma blushed, "Because I want to know."

"Well why do you want to know?" Regina teased.

Emma sighed, "I like you Regina but I don't believe I'll be comfortable with-"

"Woah little Swan, slow down. You like me?" Regina lit up.

"Yes...a lot actually," Emma blushed.

"Well that's...great. I would never make you do anything you don't want to. Also, I haven't been in an actual relationship in a very long time. Emma….I like you too but I don't think I'm the right fit for you. I can be controlling and aggressive and-"

"And I don't mind. I just want to get to know you better, we can take it slow right? Plus, I'm not eager to tell my father or anyone for that matter," Emma admitted.

"I'll gladly be your secret Miss Swan," Regina smiled.

"Really? Why?"

"You're just too cute to pass up on," Regina teased.

Emma blushed, "Stop."

"Why? I like making you blush," Regina admitted.

"I like being around you," Emma admitted, "You make me feel better."

"I'd like to do more of that Swan," Regina said.

"Good. Regina...please don't hurt me," Emma pleaded.

The brunette scooted closer to the blonde, "Never...you should also know that I don't think I'll be able to control myself around you."

"Then don't," Emma said softly.

Emma looked at the brunette's lips then to her lips, Regina looked Emma in eyes and placed her hand on her cheek, Emma leaned closer while closing her eyes. The sixteen year old nearly melted when she felt Regina's soft lips on her for the first time.

Well...what do you think? I hope you all liked it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REVIEW!
