"Marian is a close friend." He admitted. "Last night she came by to pick up our son Roland. I'm assuming that when she answered my phone it was when I was getting my son ready to go." I squinted my eyes at him.
"Well why wouldn't you check your phone or call her when she didn't come home last night?" I questioned. He sighed.
"Because sometimes when she says she is coming home late she means she's staying all night and won't make it home. She a work a holic. But ever sense you became her intern she's always home by nine, except for last night." He looked at me suspiciously I only returned the look. "Besides why do you care?"
"I care because I'm the one that made sure she wasn't alone and was taken care of."
There was a beep sound from his phone before he pressed the button.
"Is Mrs. Lucas in there?" Regina yelled on the other end.
"Yes she is right here she was just leaving." He glared at me.
"Fine hurry up." I glared one last time before leaving.
I walked in with some papers I copied to cover myself and went to sit at my desk before she stopped me.
"What were you doing in my fiancés office Ms. Lucas?" I sighed and looked at her.
"I was dropping off some papers from the front desk ma'm." I replied and sat down. I heard the scraping of chair wheels on the floor.
"Well what papers would that be that I shouldn't know about?" She challenged.
"Wouldn't know they where in a file if you want to know so badly why don't you ask him yourself." I said logging into my computer.
"I don't except that kind of tone in my office." She snapped. I raised a brow and looked into her deep mocha eyes. The ones that where filled with pure hatred but was caused by so much hurt and I was determined to figure out what happened.
"Well then I'm glad I'm not using a time higher than the one in using now." I sasses pulling up the day's schedule.
"Come here now." She growled. I looked at her slightly amused.
I clenched my jaw, stood up, and marched to her. I stood in front of her staring her down. She stood up and with her heals was the same hight as me.
Next thing I knew her lips where on mine. I was stunned at first till I kissed back deepening the kiss. Her hands went to my hair as mine went to her back.
I licked her bottom lip slightly before I was let in. I grasped her hips and picked her up setting the brunette on the desk in front of me. Before I could go further she pulled back and rested her forehead on mine. I smiled slightly and looked down at her mouth because I was to close to look in her eyes.
"Not here. Your house." She breathed. I gulped and stepped back. She looked confused.
"No we shouldn't." Her eyes flashed with hurt.
"Why?" She whispered searching my eyes.
"Because you're going to be married in a couple weeks." I said looking down and backing away further. She placed her fingers under my chin and made me look at her. Her eyes now soft like honey.
"I don't care I want you." I shook my head.
"You don't know who you want you don't even know me as well as you might think." She looked at me confused but turned towards the door when she heard sirens and commotion.
She walked to the door and opened it in time to see Robin in cuffs being directed out.
"What's happening?" She asked frantic. I walked to my desk and grabbed my things and placed them in the suit case. I walked to the door and was handed my gun and holster by not her than Ruby.
"Thanks Ruby." I said as she walked away.
Regina looked at me worried.
"What's going on?" She asked me. My boss Mr. Gold walked up.
"Ms. Mills please step back inside your office we need to discuss a few things." I nodded and went to leave when he grabbed my wrist. "You to." I bit the inside of my lip before turning around and walking back in.
Regina sat at her desk and us in the two guest chairs in front of it.
"Now will you explain to me why Mr. Losksley was arrested?" She asked mending her hands together. "And why my intern has a gun?" I stifled my chuckle.
"First Mr. Locksley. He has been embezzling money and trade marks to other company's through out the world his real name is Robin Hood." The old man informed the woman I was about to take on that very desk.
"And why does she have a gun?" Regina asked looking at me. I sighed.
"Do you want to tell her or shall I?" Mr. Gold said pointing to her slightly with his hand in his cane.
"I think you should." I said shrugging. He nodded knowingly.
"This dearie is Emma Swan. Bails bonds and undercover agent. She became your intern in order to get closer information on Mr. Hood. She is twenty four years old. Anything further you want to know you'll have to ask her." He informed her. I bit my lip again looking at her like nothing happened.
"So wait your name is Emma Swan?" She said a touch angry.
"Yes." I said with a dashing smirk. I watched her figure and knew she was about to start yelling or stand up quickly.
It was stand up quickly then yelling.
"You lied to me." She accused.
"Ma'm I was doing my job." I said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Mr?" Regina said looking for an answer.
"Gold." He answered.
"Mr. Gold will you step out side I need a word with Ms. Swan." She growled my name angrily. He nodded before getting up and leaving. When the door shut behind him she walked around and smacked me in the face.
"I don't know why you did that." I said rubbing my cheek lightly.
"That is for lying to me. I could have helped you." She said placing her hands on her hips.
"No you couldn't of because I was not aloud to talk about it." I spit. She narrowed her eyes.
"Well thank you for your help Ms. Swan you best be going I don't want to see you again." She growled walking back to her seat.
"Yes ma'm." I said gripping my things and leaving.
I walked into the building to see Neal talking to a red head while holding onto Henry's hand. It's been three months sense Regina and I didn't know how to feel.
"Mom!" Henry said letting go of his dad's hand and ran to my arms. I scooped the boy up and hugged him while he giggled.
"Hello my prince how was school?" I asked.
"I made mud pies on the playground and threw them at Tyler!" He squealed. That's when I noticed the dirt clinging to his hair.
"Well looks like some one needs a bath." I said putting him down seeing that the two where now in front of me.
"I was going to wash him before we came over but he insisted that he wanted to where his monkey pjs after which you have." Neal said ruffling the kids hair.
"Who's this?" I asked pointing to the woman. She reached out her hand.
"Zelina." She smiled. Her eyes where this light blue that I loved.
"Hi Emma." Her smile only grew.
"I know who you are I've heard a lot about you." I looked at Neal who shook his head and lifted his hands in surrender.
"From who exactly?" That's when Neal cut in.
"And I'm going to leave. Sense tomorrow is Saturday I will be by around eight to get him." He said dropping down and hugging his son before leaving.
"Follow me." I said to Zelina and took Henry's hand and walked to the elevator.
I unlocked my door and opened it. I was relieved that it was clean.
I sent Henry to his room to pick up the toys he left out last night. Zelina sat at the table setting her hat on the table.
I made myself a cup of water and sat down across from her.
"So Zelina who told you about me?" I asked taking a sip.
"Well first I'll tell you about me. My name Is Zelina Mills. My parents are Cora and Henry Mills I have a younger sister named Regina." I cocked my head to the side I didn't remember her mentioning a sister. "My sister told me about you. Said that you where her intern. God the nights she would call me and talk my ear off about what you where wearing and what you said that she secretly thought was funny the cute nick name you gave her. Royalty is one way to describe my sister." She joked.
"Wait Regina likes me?" I asked warily.
"Like? No love dear. Ever sense the time where you revealed yourself as Emma she's been quite I don't know unusual. Angry more often and I check her search records on her computer once she was trying to find out more about you but lucky you all she got was your address. Doesn't know about you ex or son for that matter." She said rolling her eyes slightly.
"Your point is?" I asked annoyed.
"I need you to talk to her. Even if it's just once I need you to. She's going to drive herself crazy. She has hardly slept sense that day and I've heard the rumors at the company that some are wanting to quit because they think she is to ruff." I nodded.
"No." She looked taken back.
"Why not?" She asked dropping her hands in desperation.
"Because I have a son to worry about." She looked down sadly.
"I understand."
A couple more minutes later she left.
I never saw Regina or Zelina for that mater ever again. Besides the occasional billboard or magazine. Apparently now the company is getting to be the strongest on the east coast.
