Chapter 7: Meet Emma Swan Again

Before the guests arrived at Emma's residence, Teresa and Emma hung out at the blonde beauty's patio place outside in her backyard with the stables. She heard the phone ringing from the living room, went to answer the call and she heard August Booth's voice on other line. She smiled and greeted him on the phone.

"Hello, Aug."

"Hello, Em. Is Teresa there?"

"Yes, she is here. Want me to get her on the call?"

"No. I'll be there."

"Oh before we end on the call, do you mind to be my grill master for our afternoon lunch with your women?"

"Sure. What do you want me to grill?"

"Teresa told me that you are the best grill master on the steaks. I have rib eyes in my refrigerator. Come over here."

"Ok, See you in few minutes."

"Bye, Aug." Emma ended the call and put it away then strode toward the back door. She informed the black-haired woman was sitting on the patio chair about August coming over to grill the steaks. They laughed and chatted about their days. Until the brunette man arrived with the ribeyes and entered the patio to see, the women talking. Teresa looked away to her boyfriend and smiled. August walked toward them and gave a kiss on their cheek. Emma flashed her smile and indicated the grill for him. He nodded and walked back to the grill master beside the patio table. He prepared the steaks for three of them. The women informed him that they wanted the well-done steaks. He smiled at them and whistled while he was cooking on the grill. Emma decided to make the lemonade, so she entered the kitchen from the back door and made the lemonade drinks.

Until, she heard the phone ringing from the living room and thought it was August calling her on the different phone. She got used to the prank that August called her on the phone while he was there with her all the times. She rolled her eyes and went to the living room to grab the phone to answer it.

After the call, Emma was shocked about The Charmings-Mills-Lucas family in Nashville and rubbed her forehead then decided to have an extended conversation with August about Regina. He knew her life very well, and the blonde beauty went to the kitchen for getting the lemonade drinks for August and Teresa. She strode out to the patio and saw the couple whispering in the sweet nothings in their ears. Finally, she put the tray on the patio table, went to Teresa's spot and spoke lightly.

"Do you mind to wait in the front of the guests and get steaks for the guests?" The black-haired woman nodded and left the patio. August glanced over at the blonde beauty who was staring at the horses in the distance from her mansion. Emma looked away at him and smiled then got back inside the house and informed Sean at the front gate to let the guests come in on the intercom from the kitchen. She looked around in the kitchen and sighed loudly.

After getting out from the kitchen, August spoke in a brotherly tone and prepared the steaks on the grill. Emma went to get her drink from the tray on the table. She heard the words from him.

"What's wrong, Em?"

"The guests are coming here."

"Who are the guests?"

"Remember I told you about them when I was in Storybrooke?"

"Oh, Is that David?"

"Yes, others too."

"Who are others?"

"Snow, baby Neal, Granny, Ruby, Henry and Regina."

"Regina is coming here?"

"Yes."

"How did you feel about it?"

"I don't know how I feel when I see her again. It had been a year."

"I'm sorry man. So, will you forgive her?"

"I.. I do want to forgive her, but I can't."

"Why not?" August knitted his eyebrows while he is grilling the steaks. Emma looked at the steaks and sipped the lemonade then continued.

"It's been a hard time for me to trust her and she ruined my happy beginning since last year."

"Did she tell you that she is coming alone without what is his name?"

"Robin Hood."

"Yeah that guy. Did she?"

"No. Henry didn't mention it on the call."

"Maybe you get a chance to talk to her about it."

"I don't know, August. I felt a betrayal of love from Regina. It's been a confusing time for me to understand the why."

"Perhaps, Regina would tell you about it."

"Maybe."

"Ok, your steak is almost done but we have to wait a little longer to be fully cooked."

"It's alright."

The brunette man smiled sadly, went to work on the grill and whistled through the music. Emma looked away at the stables and sipped the lemonade. They heard the voices from the back door, and the footsteps came on the patio with Teresa's voice echoing outside. The blonde beauty felt tense and calm when the black-haired woman strode toward her and whispered in her ear.

"Your guests are behind you." Emma smiled. Teresa walked away to August, who was grilling the steaks. Others were standing there and watching her on her back. The blonde beauty put her lemonade away on the table and turned around then pulled her vintage sunglasses away and smiled widely.

"Hello."

In the silence, August and Teresa looked at them and waited. Henry was the first person who ran toward his blonde mother and hugged her waist with his arms. Emma smiled and embraced him tightly. Others softened by their faces while they watched the son and mother scene. The brunette boy cried in silent tone and whispered.

"Ma."

"Henry I missed you."

"I missed you" They embraced once again. Teresa put her hand on her chest and went awe.

"Let me hug my daughter." Snow spoke lightly. Henry released his hug and wiped his eyes. Emma smiled and opened her arms for her mother to lean into an embrace. The pixie cut woman smiled and hugged her tightly then kissed on her cheek and released it until David went hugging her tightly. Emma laughed and hugged him back. Then Ruby went first and Granny with Neal to give their hugs to Emma. Regina was the last person who stood still and stared at the blonde beauty.

The brunette woman walked toward the blonde beauty and decided to hug her, but Emma stepped back and turned around to speak lightly.

"Who want to go to the stables for seeing the horses?" Henry, David, and Snow lit up about the stables and nodded. The blonde beauty smiled and indicated the stables. They looked away at the stables and ran on their speed races. Granny decided to stay behind and take care of Neal. Regina felt hurt when Emma didn't give her a chance to hug her and remained silent. Ruby smiled sadly at the brunette woman and gently squeezed her shoulder then ran away to the stables to be with Snow, David, and Henry.

The blonde woman looked away from the stables to Regina, walked toward her and whispered in her ear. The brunette woman shivered when Emma whispered.

"We have to talk later in my office. Now, you go have fun with David, Ruby, Snow and Henry in the stables. I am sure that you would love to see few horses." Regina nodded. Emma smiled and walked away to Granny and Neal for playing with her baby brother. The brunette woman stared at her until she saw Teresa rubbing the blonde's back and her jealousy flared out then finally strode toward the stables.

August decided to let Granny cook the steaks, and the gray-haired woman knew The Charming-Mills-Lucas' orders on the steaks. Teresa cooed while she was playing with Neal. Emma and August talked about Neal and laughed. While others were at the stables, Henry and David were fantasizing on the black beauty in the pen. Snow and Ruby chatted about Emma's clothing styles until they saw Regina coming toward them and knew that her jealousy flared out.

The brunette woman sighed, crossed her arms over her chest and looked away at Henry, who was excited to see the black beauty horse. The pixie cut woman strode toward Regina and dragged her to the horses. Ruby looked around in the stables and found the saddles then brought them to the boys who were pulling the horses out from the pen. David helped the brunette waitress to put the saddle on the black beauty and white stallion. Henry mounted himself on the white horse. David went on his mount for the black beauty. Snow smiled gently and snapped the picture of the boys on the horses. Regina stood still and watched the boys riding freely.

Snow and Ruby looked at each other then strode toward the brunette woman who was looking at the boys riding, and one of them opened her mouth.

"What do you think of Emma?" It was Snow.

"She looks better than before," Ruby spoke.

"Her clothing styles changed." The pixie cut woman indicated Emma's clothing. Others nodded.

"I can't believe that it has been a year to see her like that. I meant. Her personality, clothing and career." Regina retorted. The women looked at her like they grew two heads and nodded.

"Regina, I have a question for you," Snow said. The brunette woman sighed and looked away at her. Ruby was looking out for the boys and listened to the conversation.

"Do you love Emma?"

"Well, I don't know, but I did ruin her happy beginnings."

"Tell me a truth. Do you love her?"

"Yes, I do. I regretted it when I lost my chance with her."

"I understand. I just wanted to see you happy; that's all I care. I won't ruin your happy ending like I did to you and Daniel."

"Thank you. You've been an understanding person."

"Don't flatter me out. I've been like that for years. If Emma give you a chance, then take it. Don't throw it out. Be happy and understand what she want for you and her."

Regina nodded, and Ruby called David and Henry to come back. The boys went back to the women and dismounted themselves. Snow smiled. Ruby beckoned Regina to ride with her and the brunette woman sighed. The Charmings and Henry waved their hands to Regina and Ruby, who mounted on the horses then strode back to the patio to see Emma, Granny, Neal, Teresa, and August.

Ruby and Regina rode freely, and the brunette waitress spoke lightly.

"I know that Emma is different than we had seen her in Storybrooke."

"What's your point, Ruby?"

"I've been saying as your friend. Well, I had been seeing her lately since you got together with Robin."

Regina was having her little jealously when she heard that the brunette waitress had a fling with her Emma. Her Emma. Ruby noticed the jealousy on her and shook her head then spoke.

"Not like that! I've been seeing her as a FRIEND. We've been like sisters but not like fuck buddies. Ew!"

"Wait a minute, you did say that 'Emma is fucking hot' in the diner. Didn't you?" Regina snapped. The brunette waitress winced at the brunette mayor's voice and waved her dismissal hand.

"You won. Yes, Emma is fucking hot in tuxedo suit! You know what I'm talking about that? She'd been hurt since I helped her out and comforted her. She'd been different than we knew her. She's changed since she finally left Storybrooke. We didn't see our old Emma anymore and now, we are here with her. We have to learn about a new Emma that we didn't know. I know you love her so much and please don't hurt her like you did last time."

Regina was still having her jealousy when she heard the comfort and helped at the same time. She wished that she was the one who can comfort and help Emma. She looked away at the blonde beauty who was laughing with Henry. Ruby looked away at them and smiled then informed them to go back to the stables. The brunette woman nodded and steered the black beauty back to the stables. Ruby helped her to put the horses back to the pen and locked it.

They walked back to the patio to meet them. August smiled at them and gave the drinks. They gave their thanks and went to sit on the patio chairs around the table. Teresa dragged Snow, David, Neal and Henry to get inside the house and gave them a full tour of the estate. Granny, Ruby, and Regina decided to join them and had their peaceful sightseeing in the mansion. August and Emma brought the steaks from the grill and cleaned it up on the grill together until they finished their duty and brought food to the dining room for the late lunch with the guests.

Others arrived in the dining room and greeted Emma and August. They finally sat down and ate in silence until Emma opened her mouth.

"Do you have to cancel your hotel reservation?"

"Yes, I have to," Regina spoke. The blonde beauty nodded and indicated the living room for the phone call. The brunette woman smiled and left the dining hall. Henry looked at the blonde woman and spoke lightly.

"Why did you choose Nashville?"

"Because I haven't been here before, and I decided to make my career be developed. So here I am with a successful music career."

"Why music?" Snow quipped.

"Music was my childhood when I was with my foster family who was the musical family back from New York City. That's how I raised in the music background."

"Do you enjoy it?" Regina acknowledged her presence after finishing with her call and sat down.

"Yes, I enjoy it. I guess that we finished our late lunch. So, August, do you mind to take them out for more sightseeing in Nashville while Regina and I have our talk?" The brunette man nodded, cleaned up on the table and helped Teresa to get the dishes to be done. Others were sitting on the couch and absorbed everything in the living room until August and Teresa brought them to the city of Nashville for the sightseeing.

Emma beckoned Regina to the home office and gestured her to sit then closed the door with a lock. She strode to the couch to sit across from Regina and cleared her throat.

"Why are you all here?"

"We've been searching for you and we want you to come home." Regina said.

"Home? Where?" The blonde beauty scoffed and retorted.

"Storybrooke." The brunette woman glared at her and replied.

"Storybrooke is not my home anymore. Nashville is my home now. I've been living here for a year and half. I've been moving on. So, why did you all want me to come home?"

"We need you to be there for the town. We want you to stay there. The town sure missed you."

"I can't be there to save the town. I can't stay there and be miserable. I can't."

"Why Nashville?"

"Nashville is my haven. I felt home, and I've been feeling peaceful since there are no chaos and crazy stuff."

"Well, I recalled that you lived there for five years."

"Oh yeah. I've called by a Savior brand. I've been a Savior for five years. I can't have my normal life. I've been miserable out there to save the town. Who would save me? My parents? I don't think so."

"I knew that. But we need you as Emma. I didn't realize you at all."

"I've been changed for a year. I moved on and got my shit together since I found August in New York City."

"Were you in New York City last year?" The brunette woman knitted her eyebrows and asked. Emma rolled her eyes and spoke lightly.

"Yes, I've been there for few days on my liberation for The Narrow Life."

"Henry and I had been searching for you in New York City."

"Wow, perhaps, I'm good at hiding. Remember that?"

"Indeed, dear."

"Answer my question. Why are you here alone?"

"I came to see you and tell you that I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize. I don't want to hear it from you."

"What had I done to you?"

"You ruined my happy beginnings. I've been waiting for you a long time, and you've blinded for few reasons."

"Me? Blinded for few reasons. Enlighten me, dear?"

"First, I did send you roses. Second, I sent you a Valentine's Day card and Third; I've been waiting for you to come in the diner and hang out with me on our lunch break. You've been blinding all the along and thought it was Robin all the times. I saw you walking with Robin since I got back from Enchanted Forest. It's breaking my heart to see you happy around in the town. I can't stand by telling you that it was all me who sent you everything."

Regina swallowed a lump in her throat and listened to every word Emma spoke. She clenched her heart when she saw the tears from the blonde beauty's eyes. She didn't realize that it was her all the times when she received the sentiment presents. The blonde beauty got up and walked to the window then cried in the silence. The brunette woman looked at her and felt sad. She remembered the days that Emma was sitting in the booth and drinking the hot chocolate while she was alone. She recalled the day when she entered with Robin and sat there until Emma released Henry from the embrace and said goodbye. She remembered the kiss with Emma.

"Did you mean that by our kiss in the back room in the diner that day when you left?" Regina asked while she was bowing down and stared at the ground. Emma sniffled and spoke lightly.

"Yes, I meant that for our kiss. I've been feeling for you since I arrived Storybrooke with Henry." The brunette woman looked up at the blonde beauty's face when Emma turned around and stared at her.

"I'm sorry." Regina retorted. Emma chuckled and shook her head then strode toward the door and informed her that she was preparing for the dinner. They went out from the home office, and Emma went to the bathroom for washing her face then strode out to the kitchen. Regina followed her and sat down on the high breakfast stool.

Emma prepared the mac and cheese dish with fried chicken and green beans. The brunette woman watched her flowing freely in the kitchen and heard the guests chattering through the front door and into the living room. The blonde beauty turned around and spoke lightly.

"Regina, you can go see them in the living room and enjoy yourself here." The brunette woman nodded, stared at her longer then strode out from the kitchen toward the living room to meet them. Henry chatted with his brunette mom about Nashville. Snow and David helped Henry about seeing the buildings that August and Teresa showed. The black-haired woman got up and left the living room toward the kitchen to meet Emma. Regina watched Teresa walking off, and her jealousy went flaring out. August smirked and spoke lightly.

"Regina, don't worry. Teresa and Emma are not like that. She's very straight, and she is my girlfriend for three years. I've been planning to propose her tonight after dinner. They knew each other for a year, and they've been sisters all along."

The brunette woman looked away at August and gave a small smile until she went to chat with Ruby and Snow about the hotel reservation and decided to stay here for few days. Other nodded. Henry and David went to see Emma in the kitchen and asked her if they stayed in her mansion. The blonde beauty gave her permission and already told them that their bags were in their rooms since they arrived. The boys grinned widely and went back to the living room to inform the women that they can stay. Others were pleased with Emma's permission. Teresa strode out from the kitchen and told them that the dinner is here. They went back to the dining room and ate in silence. Others had questions for Emma about the kick-off concert on the day after tomorrow.

August and Teresa said goodbye and left the mansion. Emma cleaned up with Henry on the table, and The Charmings helped to wash the dishes. Ruby, Regina, Granny, and Neal were waiting on her to get them to their rooms for few nights. The Charmings and Henry met them and waited. The blonde beauty checked the doors and windows to lock it up and secured on the code of the security. Emma found her guests waiting by the staircases and gestured to the second floor. They found their luggage in the hallways and grabbed them. Emma indicated the red bedroom for The Charmings and hugged them with the kisses. Other walked with Emma until the blonde beauty showed the green bedroom for Granny to sleep. Ruby was on another door on the opposite side fro Granny's room. Lastly, Emma indicated the blue bedroom for Henry and embraced him with kisses.

The blonde beauty walked far along until she reached the gray bedroom and gestured Regina to come in then bid her a good night. She left her master bedroom that it was a little far from Regina's bedroom and the brunette woman watched her coming in the bedroom and turning around to see her then closed the door. She was frowning and looked away at her son who was watching then smiled sadly and walked in the gray bedroom. Regina sighed and took a look around in the room then took a liking and decided to get changed. She finally went to the bed and stared at the ceiling until she fell asleep.
