Emma's POV

They all gathered at a table in Regina's house. More like Regina's mansion, but anyways. Emma went over the plan silently in her head. Summon Cora. Ask the questions send them back. Go to the place where she hid the heart and find her phone. Simple enough. It was a small group only her, Snow, Charming, Hook, and Regina. The two sided candle Sow had used to kill Cora was in the middle of the table staring back at her. The tension between her and Hook was thick enough to cut with scissors.

Charming asked Emma "Would you please tell your mother we won't name the baby Leopold." Charming always has his priorities straight.

"Well why not it was my father's name?" Gasped Snow.

"People will make fun of him" stated David, shrugging.

"My father was a king" said Snow.

"Which is why no one made fun of him" said Charming, stating the obvious.

"Well what about Eva after my mother" tried Snow.

"I don't know how that would work with a boy" said Charming.

"Well it might not be a boy." Snow reminded.

"Sorry to keep you waiting" said Regina, walking in with a train her hands.

She set it down and began pouring the liquid into each cup. Charming picked it up about to drink when Regina said "DON'T -- drink it. It's a deadly poison for summoning the dark vortex."

Charming set it down and said "I prefer Earl Grey"

Regina said "We have to summon my mother" Snow White looked ready to pass out.
"It's a very simple ritual."

"Then why not do it more?" David asked.

"Well because you have to have to have the murder weapon," and after a pause she added "and the murderer. Snow paled so much she literally looked white.

"How do we perform the ritual?" I asked.

"Everybody hold hands and focus if Cora."

Emma took Regina's hand and of course, Hooks. More like his hook rather than his hand though. She tried focusing on Cora like Regina said but all she could think about was Regina. She was holding her soft, perfectly manicured hand. Every thought of Cora she had led back to Regina. The candle blew out and the room got eerie. Emma was glad she was there with Regina to protect her.

Whoa Emma calm down she willed herself. She just a friend.

Suddenly the Dark Vortex opened from the ceiling. She saw Regina saying stuff but she couldn't focus. She used all her willpower to think about Cora instead.

Hook crossed his legs and bumped the table. The vortex disappeared and the room became bright again. Emma noticed she and Regina were still holding hands. Regina did too and let go, blowing out the candle, much to Emma's disappointment.

They left the room.

"I'll go back to place where I hid Regina's heart. I left something there." Emma told Hook and David by the door. "Zelena's magic is getting stronger everyday but mine is too. By the time all of this goes down I'll be ready." Regina comes out and says "Make-----sure that you are" Emma can't help but notice her cleavage. She's not sure if she purposely skipped a button or not. Maybe it was meant for Robin. Or maybe not.

Regina's POV

"Go ahead" Snow tells Charming, gesturing to the door. "I'll stay behind and help Regina."

"I'm not in the mood for a heart to heart talk." Regina tells Snow.

"I'm not sure it's physically possible right now." And Regina and Snow share a smile.

"You can help with the teacups." She tells Snow.

"I want to apologize Regina." Snow says. "For Cora for um"

"Murdering her" Regina says, facing away from her.

"Right yeah" Snow says now tearing up. "I don't take it lightly. I think about it every day."

"So do I." Regina says without emotion. "And when I do think about it I will admit that she did kill your mother. It's complicated."

"Thank you" Snow says gratefully. "Well do you want to talk about it?"

"Whats there to talk about?" Regina says with a trace of sarcasm.

"Today, you seemed so lonely. But with Emma there you were much more comfortable. I have seen what life has thrown at you Regina. Your heart fights the darkness everyday. But your heart will find its way to happiness."

Regina scoffs as a single tear trickles down her cheek.

"That doesn't feel possible. I thought I had that with Robin but we broke up." she said with a sad smile.

"But it is possible!" Snow says, trying to convince her. "I know you and you feel things deeply. With or without your heart you feel things with your whole soul. Don't let anything hold you back. Regina sighed and decided she was going to take her chances. She got her coat and ran into the woods. She found Emma waiting by a fire, roasting marshmallows. She waved her over and said "Look I found it" waving her phone in the air. The blaze lit her blonde hair so it looked golden and perfectly accented her face making it look warm and welcoming. She got up and stood across from Regina their faces only a foot apart. She looked deep into Emma's emerald green eyes, decorating her face.

"Regina I'm so sorry about today again..." She began but Regina wouldn't let her finish. She crashed her lips on her sweet tasting ones. She felt Emma start to kiss her back. Their lips moved together like a dance and fit each other's as if they were molded to kiss the other. It didn't feel desperate or wrong. It felt real and it felt right. Emma's hands were on her back and her hands were in Emma's golden locks. As they pulled apart resting their foreheads on the others. Regina hugged Emma and started crying happy and sad tears that she was waiting to let out for a while now. She buried her face into Emma's hair as Emma hugged her back and let her cry. Regina was overjoyed Emma accepted her, that Emna felt the same way. She knew this wouldn't last long with Zelena. She wanted Emma to be safe.

A/N Sorry long chapter. Yasss they finally kissed woot woot.
