Love or Gangs?

Chapter 6- Hawaii

Chapter 6- Hawaii
Regina's POV

As Emma and I get off the plane I'm greeted to a man with leis who says.
"Welcome to Hawaii." While putting a lei around my neck I turn around to Emma seeing her smiling and I'm smiling back. She did all of this for me? I could kiss her. She looked at me and took my hand guiding me out of the airport to go check our bags, then we got our rental car which was a matte black Jeep. We drove for a while til we got to this huge mansion, and my jaw dropped. What the fuck? Who is she? Why would she do this for me? As we pull up she grabs our bags and puts them inside the house as I stand outside the house admiring it. I could hear the ocean, it was relaxing. She then joined me and without saying a word she throws me over her shoulder and carries me inside the house. She makes me feel so giddy, I can't help but smile and blush. My fucking face hurts. She puts me down and begins giving me the grand tour.

"Who's house is this" I look to her curiously. She smiles and looks to me.

"It's a buddy of mine's get away house."

"Oh, what made you bring me here?" I ask intrigued. We walk towards a couch and sit. She then turns to me, grabbing my hands and making direct eye contact. I love looking into her eyes.

"I know what it's like to feel lost, like there isn't any hope. To feel like the whole world is against you. This place restores my hope for a better future. I hope to help you find that still embedded inside you, because you're way to intelligent, and beautiful, to feel like the world would be better without you." I see a tear escaping her eye so I quickly wipe it and I rest my hand on her cheek. We never break eye contact and next thing I know our lips are brushing together. Fuck realizing what I've done I pull away quickly and stand up.

"I-I'm sorry I don't know what I was thinking"

"Regina it's okay" she smiles "sit back down" she says softly and I do.

"I'm sorry Emma, that shouldn't have occurred, it's just for some reason for the first time in my life I feel like nothing bad is gonna happen. I feel so safe around you and it's weird because we just met today. For some reason I'm drawn to you and I don't know why." By the time I finish rambling Emma has a big goofy ass grin plastered on her face.

"What?" I ask confused.

"Nothing I just feel drawn to you too. Maybe it's because I saved your life or something, but this is weird. I have a strong urge to protect you and I absolutely love it. Maybe we aren't meant to understand our connection now. How about we go to the beach and we go from there?" She looks to me for an answer.

"You're probably right let's go." The beach is public. I hate super public places, they make me anxious. I'm with Emma and she said she would protect me, so I should be fine right? Emma stands and looks at me. What if she thinks I'm weird or like a baby or something. After a few seconds I decided to asked her if she'll hold my hand so I don't freak out.

"Sure I'll hold your hand baby girl" baby girl, I love that. I stand up blushing and I take her hand following her out of the house.
We get to the beach and I'm standing super close to Emma. My grip on her hand is tight and it's not changing any time soon. The beach isn't too crowded but it's just the right amount of people to still kind of make me uncomfortable. I think Emma could tell I wasn't comfortable because she led me to this secluded area. She reads me so well. It was nice and breezy and it was an amazing place to watch the sun set. I love watching the sunset, it's very calming. The sun is shining on her face right now and she's glowing. Her long blonde hair is in a ponytail, shining under the sunlight. As much as I try to stop it my mind keeps traveling back to the kiss. Magic. The moment my lips met hers I felt something I've never felt before. It felt like they were meant to be there. Like I've been searching for home and I found it. I know that's weird because we just met but I don't know. She squeezed my hand dragging me from my thoughts. We sat on the sand and I rested my head on her shoulder. I ended up falling asleep and I woke up to Emma running her fingers through my hair. It felt so fucking good and relaxing.
