You're giving me a million reasons to let you go
Things hadn't been going well for Regina and Emma. The first year was amazing, the second...It was going downhill fast. They were drifting apart. Emma would stay out until all hours of the morning, when she came back she would smell like a mixture of alchohol, weed...And someone elses perfume.
Regina couldn't stay in a relationship like this but she wanted to...She didn't want to give up on Emma like everyone else had.
You're givin' me a million reasons
There was also the time they were at a mutual friends party and Regina caught Emma kissing her friends cousin. Emma swore she was about to push her away. Regina believed her...But she still had her doubts.
Givin' me a million reasons
Then there are the times Emma has serious mood swings. It scared Regina how Emma would be so gentle and loving to...Such an angry person. She'd get angry at such the smallest things. She never hit Regina, she would hit the people who hurt her...Including herself. Emma would punch walls and break things when she hurt Regina...Regina didn't want to live like that.
About a million reasons
Sometimes Emma couldn't give a damn about Regina. She would rather stay in and watch baseball when Regina wanted to go out to a nice restaurant. When Regina wanted to have a quiet night in, Emma wanted to go out and have fun...It was usually all about what Emma wanted. Never Regina. Even though that bothered Regina, she still loved Emma and would do anything her Princess wanted.
If I had a highway, I would run for the hills
There would be times when Regina would just feel like giving up, she would just want to get in her car and drive away. From this life. From Emma. But she couldn't, leaving Emma would break her own heart and Emma's. The thought of breaking Emma's heart also broke her own.
I bow down to pray
Regina never was a religious person, but tonight whilst Emma was out she sat on the sofa and began to pray. Pray for things to get better. All she wants is the relationship she had a year ago. A much happier one.
Lord, show me the way
All she wanted was a sign, a sign that things would get better or a sign to show her how to make it better.
I've got a hundred million reasons to walk away
"This is stupid." Regina muttered as she stood up.
All the bad things and hurtful things Emma did, she couldn't take it anymore. She didn't want to find out what Emma would do next.
So she grabbed her keys, her bag and her jacket and was about to walk out of the door when Emma walked in, roses in her hand and a teddy bear in the other.
"Emma?" Regina said as she put her things down.
"I'm a really bad girlfriend, I've screwed up so many times, but I'm not use to this. A good relationship...A healthy one...My last relationship was abusive so actually being in one where I'm loved and treated amazingly...It's new. I'm sorry for all the things I've said and done but I can change. I was being so distant because I was scared that you'd abuse me...Maybe not physically but mentally...Like he did."
But baby, I just need one good one to stay
"Regina I love you and now I've been awful this past year but I wanna start fresh." Emma quickly handed Regina the teddy and flowers before getting down on one knee. "I wanna start fresh with you as my wife."
Head stuck in a cycle, I look off and I stare
Regina couldn't believe Emma was proposing to her, all that was running through her mind were the bad things...Not the good things. All Regina could do was stare at Emma, and Emma felt her heart sink as Regina didn't say anything.
It's like that I've stopped breathing, but completely aware
Emma stood up, reaching into her pocket and pulling out a box and setting it on the table, wiping her eyes as she walked passed Regina who was still stood there. Watching. Not moving. It's like she couldn't.
And if you say something that you might even mean
"I really do love you Regina, you're the best thing that's happend to me and I'm sorry about everything I've done. You've treated me like a princess...I've treated you like crap. I'm so sorry. I understand that you don't want to be with me anymore. I'll go get my things and I'll be out of your hair." Emma said sadly.
It's hard to even fathom which parts I should believe
Emma had never been like this with Regina before, so of course Regina thought that Emma was saying it she wouldn't leave...But maybe she meant every word.
When Emma walked passed Regina, Regina grabbed Emma's wrist and stopped her.
"No more secrets. No more lies. We do things together as a couple. No forcing the other to do something they don't wanna do. It goes back to how it used to be last year, or something like that."
Emma nodded her head. "I'll try to control my anger. I love you."
Regina grabbed the box and opened it, Emma took it gently from her and took the ring out before slowly sliding it on Regina's finger.
I've got a hundred million reasons to walk away
All the bad things didn't matter anymore. This was their fresh start.
But baby, I just need one good one, good one
This marriage was the sign that Regina prayed for that things would get better.
Tell me that you'll be the good one, good one
No matter what Emma did or say, Regina would always love her. All those things made their relationship stronger and their marriage would cement it together. Nothing would break them apart.
