The Big F (Re-editing)

Chapter Twenty Four

Emma made her way late into school the next day. She wasn't even sure should go at all after yesterday. But she only wanted to be in Regina's arms right now which seemed impossible. Emma cursed herself for even introducing her to Mal. The blonde felt like this was karma slapping her in the face for how bad she was the previous years. Unfortunately the finals already started, but Emma put a second thought on it. Emma strolled into Ms. Mills' empty classroom, hoping she wouldn't have to talk more than necessary. "Hey." Regina glanced up at her. "Ms. Swa-"
"I'm not here for you. I'm just picking up my finals results." The brunette was quiet all of a sudden and handed her the papers. "An F?! What?! How?!"
"You should have studied more."
"But you were the one who said I could pass easily with an A if I did it like I did during our private lessons!" Regina placed her pen aside. "I didn't do good enough." They stared at each other in silence. Emma had no idea what had gotten into her teacher suddenly. The blonde furrowed her brows in confusion. "Emma we can't be this way with each other forever-"
"I wanted to make up again and I told how it really is." Her teacher captured her face between her hands. "I didn't do anything with Mal. She means nothing to me." She exhaled and came unbelievably close, "...I couldn't..." Emma licked her lips as she could smell the apple and cinnamon of her teacher's perfume. "My heart belongs to someone else." Regina whispered and leaned in capturing Emma's lips in a loving, passionate kiss. She broke away from the kiss, causing her student to whine in disapproval. "I love you Emma Swan." Regina smiled gently at her. "You are the one I want to be with, but I can't."
"Regina I-"
"I'm sorry for what I put you through, you deserve so much Emma. I'm sorry I was all wrong about you. I'm really sorry. Maybe one day I'll be good enough for you." Regina pecked her cheek gently. "Now Leave please."
