The Regal Ships

Part 20: Without A Heart Pt.2 (HQ)

   Graham had bought a nice suit.  He was going to take Regina on a date.  He walked into her office with a rose. Once he fell in love he was quite the romantic.

"Regina?" He said softly and her head rose from her last minute paperwork before she left.

"Graham? Well look at you handsome devil you." She said smiling and got up and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Why are you so dressed up?"

"I have a date."

"Wha-"

"With you." He said and he showed her the rose she gently took it out of his hand.

"You're taking me on a date? I feel underdressed."

"You look fine. Gorgeous actually."

She blushed and kissed him. He grabbed her hand.

...

"Why are you doing this?"

"Because I really like you." He answered and opened the car door.

"I don't understand why."

"Well, you're beautiful, funny, and smart and-"

"Okay you can shut up now." She said with a chuckle and kissed him while holding his chin.

"Why do you do that?"

"What kiss you?" She asked.

"No, the chin thing."

"What you don't like that?"

"No I do it's just cute."

"It's kind of my thing." She mailed and then kissed him again slowly.

...

He put his hand over her eyes and lead her into the restaurant. He removed his hands when they were in front of the reserved table.

"Graham." She said in amazement of the set up. She was nearly in tears. Why would someone do this for her?

"Do you like it?"

"I love it."  She smiled at him and he pulled out her seat and pushed it in when she sat. 

...

   He smiled at her as he formed his food.  "I don't understand why do you like me?  I thought everybody hated me." 

   "Quite the contrary.  I really like you.  Henry he loves you he's a growing boy and he's going through stuff he doesn't understand.  Give him time he'll be back." 

   "Thank you." 

   He took a sip of his wine.  "Tell me how'd you get the scar."  He said softly he pointed to his lip.

  "It's not a very intriguing story.  I was very young around ten.  I had gotten a horse for my birthday.  The name was Rocinante and she was a bit feisty at first.  So I didn't know any better and I behind her and saw some food and got excited.  So her leg swung into my face.  It hurt like hell.  I hate having it though it's so unattractive."  She said and he frowned. 

   "I think it's sexy."  He said in his accent. 

   "Really?"

  "Yeah, gives you some character too." 

...

They got back home and even inside.

"So do I get a reward for the date?" He teased and she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"You might." She teased back and pulled him into an intense kiss.

Henry walked into the dining room. "Ew mom."

They broke immediately and looked at him with shock. "Uh...Henry." Regina said petrified.

"Graham can we talk a minute?" Henry asked.

"Uh...sure Henry."

Graham and Henry went into the kitchen. Regina was trying to gather herself as she basically just made out with the huntsman in front of her son.

"Are you in love with my mom?"

He smiled. "Yes."

"Really? Although that's great and all can you maybe keep the kissing yucky stuff away from me?"

"Will do."

The Evil Queen and the Huntsman in love? Maybe he makes her happy. Maybe she'll change! I kind of like this.
