What's Gonna Happen

23

Emma was stood in the door way, having stopped at the sound of Regina's cries. She glanced round at the brunette, seeing as she led with her head burried in the pillow. Emma couldn't handle that, she needed to go over. As she approached the bed, she climbed in and led opposite the brunette.

"Please, look at me" Emma softly requested, brushing her hand through the brunettes locks.

"No, I can't. Just leave me alone" Regina quickly said, shaking her head in a rapid pace.

"You know I can't do that" Emma replied, moving closer to put her arm around the brunettes lower back. Regina hesitated a little before moving closer, hiding her face in the blondes chest. Emma began to let her tears fall as she held Regina close, unable to stop them. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry, I love you so much"

"Don't, it makes it harder" Regina mumbled, subconsciously squeezing the woman closer to her.

"Harder for what"

"For me to stay mad"

"Why do you need to stay mad at me" Emma softly asked, becoming aware the woman isn't angry, just hurt.

"Because, the second I stop being mad, I will forgive you and I can't give into you this easy" Regina huffed in annoyance, appearing as if it was obvious.

"I don't understand" Emma questioned, pushing the brunette locks out the way to see her face a little.

"If I forgive you, Laura was right!" Regina snapped, finally sitting up to be seen; her face was covered in tears. "I am weak and I let anyone back into my life, that's what she said... And if I forgive you, I'm proving her right. I'm proving that... That..."

"Sshh, stop" Emma cut in, cupping the brunettes face to calm her. "You aren't weak, we both know that. Look, I know you don't want to forgive me because of what I done; I was out of order and I get that... But I love you more than I could ever imagine and I will wait as long as I have to for us to be together"

"Why? Why, when I am pushing you away, are you coming back" Regina asked with a puzzled look, not understanding the blondes logic.

"Because it's us"

"Exactly, it's us" Regina cut in, looking at the woman like she's crazy. "We have never actually been able to work but you keep leaving!"

"I left to protect you and you know it! I risked my life to make sure you and Marco were ok, that's why I left" Emma quickly huffed, climbing out of the bed to turn away.

"Then do as you do best and leave" Regina snapped, heading over to open the bedroom door.

"You can't be serious" Emma asked, looking at the woman with shock and confusion.

"I am, just leave!" Regina replied in a growling tone, pointing out the door.

Emma stormed over but, once again, stopping in the doorway. Regina looked with an impatient expression, waiting for her to exit the room. As Emma turned to the brunette, she stepped closer. Regina just looked at her, only able to hear each others warm breath. She didn't even realize herself moving a little closer, easily drawn to the woman.

"Please... Please, don't shut me out" Emma whispered her beg, moving to wipe the brunettes cheek.

"I told you I didn't want this fight, I knew that this would happen" Regina sighed, letting her head drop onto the blondes shoulder. Emma slipped her arms around Regina as she pushed the door shut, holding the woman close. "I don't want to hurt anymore"

"I'm not going to hurt you ever again"

"You said that before, we both have" Regina sighed, shaking her head against the blondes chest.

"All of it is over, I don't have a reason to not be with you. I love you, I need you... Just give us a chance; we fought so hard for it after all" Emma softly but passionately said, trying to hold the brunettes hair away from her face.

Regina just stayed quiet, only a small sob was heard from her. Emma leaned down to the woman's face, giving a small kiss against her cheek. Regina, like always, fell into the trance of Emma. She turned her face as towards the blondes, edging her lips closer.

"Em" Regina whispered breathless, her grip growling tighter.

"I love you, you know that" Emma said quietly, moving closer towards the woman's lips.

"What about- I can't hurt anymore" Regina sighed, not daring to move closer or further away.

"Then let's not hurt" Emma whispered back, almost connecting their lips together.

Regina couldn't hold her desire in anymore, finally kissing the other woman. As their lips joined, they wasted no time to deepen the gesture and lace it with passion. Each held the other so close, their bodies could merge together. Emma's hands slid down to the woman's hips, lifting her from the ground and pinning her to the door. Her lips began trailing down to Regina's neck, a few nibbles and sucks along the way.

"Em... Em, we..." Regina tried to say, moaning each time the blonde sucked against her neck. Emma kissed back up to Regina's lips, reconnecting them. Delicate fingers pushed through the blondes locks, gripping tightly to it. She then broke the kiss again, looking away from Emma. "No, no, stop"

"What's wrong"

"I can't do this, Swan. You can't just kiss me to make it better, that's not how it works" Regina quickly huffed, unhooking her legs from around the woman's waist. Before Emma could speak, Regina opened the door for the blonde. "Please, just leave this time" she requested, heading over to her bed.

"Ok, I'll go. I'll be upstairs when you're ready" Emma simply said, making her way out of the small room.
