Emotions

Emma's POV

       I stared at the clock watching the seconds tick waiting for Regina to wake up but then it hit me, my mom doesn't accept me, it hadn't last night, all these pictures of her rejecting me and who I am.
"What if she never comes to accept me?"
I said I little louder than a whisper, I hoped Regina wouldn't wake up from my words, she turned over to face me and opened her eyes. Damnit she heard, she's awake.
I didn't want her to see me crying, she was so distraught last night when I was okay, how would she be when I'm crying? To my surprise she didn't start to cry, she didn't say a word, she knew what I needed and embraced me as I cried, I didn't care how I looked, I knew I looked gross and puffy but I didn't care.
I wanted to stay here forever in this position, I never wanted her to let go.
It felt like hours when she moved her body away from me, she had still left her hands on my shoulders, I could feel her looking at me, it was soft almost afraid that I might break if she looked too hard. I looked back at her.
"I'm sorry Regina, I didn't want you to see me cry." I sniffles and wiped away my tears.
"Don't be silly Emma, that is when I want to be here for you, to tell you that everything is going to be okay, your mother will come to accept you, she would never reject her own daughter. Give her sometime, people can be bad at change, change is scary and people react in different ways, don't get me wrong, her behavior was unacceptable but she does have a right to be confused, maybe you should try talking to her, make her see you are still the same person." She gave me a faint smile and wiped away my last tear, before she could take her hand off my face I grabbed it back and held it against my cheek, she leaned in to kiss me her kiss was soft but that wasn't what I wanted, I wanted more, she pulled back,
"Emma I don't know if this is-"
I kissed her in the middle and stepped back to take my clothes off,
"I'm serious Emma, please-"
"NO, I'm done talking, please,
if they don't want me, I don't want them, just please Regina, can we please..."
By the end of the sentence I had already burst into tears. She pulled me back onto the bed and held me while I cried, I was supposed to be the savior, I was supposed to be strong but I am not, I laid there naked and crying, Regina didn't dare say anything, she just held me and that was enough until I broke the silence,
"I'm so confused, I-"
She cut me off
"Emma, you don't have to know everything,
I know I have no idea what you are going through but you are not alone, you have to talk to your family."
I pulled my oversize shirt back on and looked back at Regina
"I guess so."
I head to the bathroom to shower and wash the obvious puffiness off my face, I looked back one more time
"This is your last chance, want to join me for a shower?"
I stared at her waiting for her answer.
"I guess so."
She said very nonchalantly but I could see her smile. I held my hand out for her and she grabbed it, I pulled her into the bathroom and shut the door.
