Memories

Chapter 2

Regina was a flustered mess when she finally arrived at Boston General. She spent the entire drive there trying to contact the Charmings, but she had no luck. As she entered the emergency room she heard the telltale sound of one Killian Jones coming from the nurses station. With rage building up Regina belined for the pirate.

"What the hell happened Killian!" Regina grabbed the pirate by the collar of his tattered leather jacket and dragged him away from the poor nurse he was trying and failing to flirt with.

"Regina...we were driving and then...the truck came out of nowhere. It hit on Emma's side, I've never seen her like that before Regina...she just kept asking for Henry...and you." Regina could tell that he pirate was emotional, Emma was his only real friend in this world and he no doubt was the reason that she was forced to drive out to Boston.

"Where is she?" All the bent up anger that Regina had stored up over the night simply washed away and all that was left was worry for her former wife and friend.

"They rushed her straight into surgery...they told me stay put until someone takes a look at my arm, reckon it's broken, I don't feel a thing though." Regina wasn't surprised that the pirate wasn't in any pain, considering that att least 65% of his bloodstream was probably made up of rum anyway and she could smell alcohol on his breath a mile away.

"Go and sit, I'll go see if I can get you a doctor and an update on Emma...oh here take my phone and see if you can reach the Charmings. They haven't answered any of my calls so far, they need to be here...just in case." Regina whispered those last few words to herself, she didn't need to worry the intoxicated man anymore than he already was.

The noise of the emergency room overwhelmed the brunette, standing still she closed her eyes and inhaled sharply and deeply, she needed to keep things together, she couldn't fall apart. Hook was barely holding on and she could already guess how Snow and David would react to the news about their daughter, not to mention Henry. Regina had to be the strong one, she couldn't cry or scream, even though she wanted to. Regina had been in position once before, it was a few months before Emma and Regina's wedding.

(Flashback)

Regina was shopping online for wedding dresses, she couldn't believe that she and Emma were getting married and so soon as well. Regina had just found the perfect one and was about to call Emma to tell her the news when her phone began to ring, confused as to why David as calling her, Regina quickly answered.

"Regina, it's Emma she's been in a accident. We're at the hospital she's stable, but you need to get here as soon as possible." Regina dropped the phone, letting it smash against the glass desk. In a matter of seconds she engulfed herself in a cloud of thick purple smoke and teleported straight to the hospital entrance. She spotted David and Killian straight away, the Prince hung up the phone as soon as he saw Regina.

"Where is she? I need to see her!" Regina's eyes began to water, as her soon to be father in law pulled her in for a tight and loving embrace.

"The Doctor is in with her now, she's going to be okay Regina...our Emma is a fighter, she always has been." Gently David placed a small kiss on the brunette's head, as Regina continued to cry in his arms. David was right, Emma was fine. Only a broken arm and a few bruised ribs, but that didn't stop Regina from worrying nonetheless.

(End of flashback)

Regina knew that this was worse than last time, she didn't fall down a hill chasing a dog, she was hit by a truck...she could be dead. Shaking these feelings away Regina made her way over to the information desk.

"Hi, I'm Ms Mills. I'm looking for information on Emma Swan." Regina asked sternly, she didn't have time for pleasantries.

"Are you family of Miss Swan?" The woman behind the counter asked, holding Regina death gaze.
