Emma POV

Emma was just standing in her office still in shock after finding out that she might of just found her birth family. Her head was spinning, why now after 30 years why try and be in her life now? Especially when she has Megan to think about if she did try and get to know her family and something went wrong and Megan got hurt because of her she would never forgive herself.

That's one of Emma's greatest fear is that she will end up hurting Megan even if it's not on purpose, she has no idea what to do right now. So instead of going right back to Regina's and picking up Megan she decides to make a phone call to her old partner/friend Killian Jones.

Emma: Hey I know I haven't talked to you in a week I've been busy with adjusting to the move. I'm sorry but I really needed to talk to a friend right now.

Emma said with a nervous and sad voice.

Killian: Swan you know I don't care about that. Whenever you need to talk just call me we've been friends since college. I'll always be there for you know matter what love. 

Emma was trying to figure out how to say. Hey I just met someone claiming to be my sister, found out my birth father is dead, and that my mom and sister have been looking for me for months. But hey what's up with you? But instead Emma decided to keep it somewhat small talk for right now.

Emma: Yeah I know, you know I already miss your annoying ass right?

She said in a teasing tone. 

Killian: I know I happen to miss you too love. So what's up Swan?

Emma just hung up the phone feeling a little bit better, she didn't tell Killian about meeting her maybe biological sister. They just talked about how everyone at the precinct was doing. How Killian was doing since she left, she even offered him the deputy sheriff position that she had open here. He said he would think about it and in a week or so he would give her an answer.

Emma is parking her yellow bug across the street from Regina's house. Emma just focus you need to be at least 80% functional before you see Megan, she doesn't need to worry about her mom not being okay right now. Emma was telling herself when she got out of her car and started heading up to Regina's front door. 

 When Emma made it to the front door she knocked on the door, she didn't want to ring the door bell just in case Megan was asleep. When the door open she was met by Regina. Hey Emma come on in Megan is asleep upstairs right now the brunette said. 

"I'm so sorry I lost track of time at the station Regina, I am so sorry I'll make it up to you." Emma replied in a quick nervous tone. "Em it's no problem watching Megan, when you left she woke up but I got her settled in a room right know she's sleeping. Are you okay though you don't seem like yourself?" Regina said with a curious look on her face. 

 Yeah just a little tired and got some stuff on my mind Emma said. Regina knew she was lying but she didn't want to push her to talk to her about it right now. "Since your tired and Megan is sleeping already, and also it's 10pm your gonna stay here tonight. I don't mind and I don't want you to drive since your tired and it's already late" Regina replied in a no-nonsense tone.

 "It's sounds awfully like I don't have a choice Regina" the blonde said with sarcasm. "That's because you don't have a choice Swan your staying here, you can either stay in a spare room or with your daughter but you aren't leaving my house till morning sheriff." The brunette said with a smirk.

"Okay okay, I see I don't have a choice so I'll just stay with my daughter. Since I'm being held captive by the mayor, but for real Regina thanks for tonight." Emma said with a sincere look. "Like I said Em it's okay. Let's get ready for bed though I have some pajamas you can borrow." Regina said heading upstairs with Emma following close behind. 

 Regina gave Emma a t-shirt with shorts to sleep in while Emma was getting changed Regina made sure all the doors and windows to the house were locked and then headed back to Emma and Megan's room. She knocked on the door and heard Emma replied in a quite voice "come in." "Okay everything is locked up my bedroom is down the hall if you need anything. Goodnight Emma I'll see you in the morning" the brunette said in a quite voice that way she didn't wake up Megan. "Thanks Regina goodnight" Emma said. 

 When Emma got settled into bed with Megan sleeping right beside her she was thinking about her 'family', well at least her biological family. She didn't see them as her real family because they haven't ever been around her, they haven't been there when she needed a shoulder to cry on or when Megan was born. They weren't there for the important moments in her life unlike granny, Regina and Regina's parents or anyone else in her life. She couldn't sleep so she just stayed up looking at the ceiling.

 Meanwhile Regina was doing the same thing but was thinking about Emma she didn't know what was wrong with the blonde but she knew it was something. It was the look she had on her face when they were talking that the brunette knew something wasn't right but she knew Emma and knew if you pushed her to talk to you when she wasn't ready it wouldn't end well. But whenever Emma is ready to talk to her about it she will be there to listen to whatever it is that's bothering her, and with that sleep took over her body.
