Secrets our hearts hide

33

A month passed. Regina was asleep in bed since it was early Saturday morning. Her phone then started ringing. She opened one eye as she lifted it up to see the name. Emma's name. The brunette frowned hard before answering it.

"What?! It's 6 in the morning" Regina growled annoyed she was woken up.

"Get downstairs now. Open your front door" Emma quickly said making it obvious she was running.

"What" Regina asked confused as she sat up in her bed.

"Now. Quick" Emma sternly orders as she was running towards Regina's house and hung up the phone.

The brunette stood up from her bed so tired she was ready to kill Emma. She walked downstairs and to her front door. She opened it but saw no one was around. The brunette looked both ways and still saw no one.

"I'm going to kill you swan" she growled at herself as she was beginning to close the door.

"Regina wait" Emma shouts running down the street. Behind her was three men chasing her. They were much taller than her and muscular. Emma ran down the path and quickly through Regina's front door. "Shut it"

Regina slammed her door shut in anger. She looked around at Emma who was trying to catch her breath. She was glaring across at her as to what happened. Emma looked up at her and knew before hand she was in trouble.

"Kitchen now" Regina growled pointing towards it. The front door then started knocking. The men were really banging on it. Regina points to the kitchen and Emma walked in quickly. She opened the door and saw all of them looking angry. "Who are you" she formally asked looking between them all.

"I'm Dominic. Where's Emma" one with a deep voice asked angry.

"Doesn't concern you now" Regina sternly replied crossing her arms.

"Yes it does. If you don't move your ass I'll move it" another one said tightening his fist.

"You might be the tough guys but I know your not that bad to hurt a pregnant woman are you" Regina asked placing her hand over her stomach. All three looked at her then her stomach. None said anything and didn't know what to do. "I didn't think so. Now get off my porch" she growled glaring at them hard.

All three huffed before walking away. Regina closed the door and walked towards the kitchen. She saw Emma stood by the sink running the tap and holding something against her stomach. She put her phone on the island getting Emma's attention.

"I'm sorry" the blonde said turning around.

Regina saw her hands covered in blood. She looked worried and rushed over. She saw Emma was putting pressure on something against her stomach. In the sink was a knife covered in blood.

"What happened" she asked so concerned by all the blood everywhere.

"I got stabbed in the stomach. Its nothing I just need to stop the bleeding" Emma said trying to hide the fact she was in pain.

Regina saw Emma was using a wet kitchen towel to hold the blood in. The brunette took it and put her hand there in replace. She grabbed a tea towel and put it over the deep cut.

"That kitchen towel would dissolve. We need to get to the hospital now. What the fuck were you doing running from them" Regina asked making sure she was holding the blood in.

"The bar. They are the guys I got into a fight with the first time and kicked them out. They came back but this time they had knives and weren't drunk" Emma sighed as she now showed she was in pain. Regina glared at her and slapped her round the head. "Ouch"

"We have to get to the hospital" Regina said quickly as she took Emma's hand and put it where hers was. Regina washed her hands and Emma's free one. "Let's go" she quickly said as she held Emma's hand and walked her to the door.

"Your not really pregnant are you" Emma asked confused at what she had previously heard.

"Well I'm dating a woman and I can't get pregnant anyway so I'm going to guess no" Regina replied like she was stupid for asking. The girls left the house and to the brunettes car. "Don't get too much blood on my seats" she warned knowing her car was expensive.

"I'll try" Emma sighed with a sarcastic smile.

Regina started driving towards the hospital. She kept glancing at Emma to check she was ok. She then saw her looking tired and barely keeping her eyes open.

"Em sweetie wake up" Regina said reaching to hold her hand that was free.

"I am" Emma replied closing her eyes to sleep.

"Wake up! Em talk to me" Regina ordered knowing if the blonde sleeps she's gone.

"What"

"What's my name" she asked trying to keep Emma awake.

"Regina Mills" the blonde replied tiredly while looking across at her.

"What are your nicknames for me"

"Gina and beautiful. What is the point of this? Just let me sleep" Emma sighed as her grip on the cut loosened.

Regina reached across and put pressure on it while still driving. She looked up to see Emma starting to sleep.

"Come on sweetie. Wake up. If you wake up and stay awake I'll give you the Regina special tonight" the brunette said knowing that always worked on her. Emma's eyes opened and looked across at her. "I knew that would work. Come on. If you want it then stay awake"

Emma fought to stay awake. Regina talked to her the whole way but she was loosing lots of blood. They arrived at the hospital shortly after. Regina helped her in while keeping pressure on it.

"Gina it hurts" Emma said as it started hurting more now she's moving.

"I know. It's ok" Regina replied as she helped Emma walk even more now. "I need a doctor" Regina shouts looking around the hospital.

"I'm a doctor" a man said walking over. He looked at Emma before turning to face a woman at the desk. "Get me doctor Smith and doctor Chakravarthy now" he ordered worried by Emma's condition.
