A SwanQueen Story

Threaten

Regina's POV

I wake up and I see that Henry is sleeping and so is Emma. He'll probably wake up soon and he won't be too happy to see me here so I move my chair back quietly and sit far away from the bed even though it's killing me. Miss Paige looks in and then opens the door quietly.

"Sorry I thought Emma might have been awake. Silly me she can sleep for hours."

"I'm sure she can." I say.

"So what exactly do you want?"

"Excuse me?" I ask.

"I didn't come here just to see my girlfriend. I came because recently all she can talk about is the hard ass mayor. And I have to say you're very beautiful but you don't look gay to me."

"Gay?" I ask in shock.

"I am no such thing."

"Well it hasn't stopped Emma. I see her eyes wander."

"If your girlfriend had trouble keeping her eyes away from me then I think that's her problem. Not mine."

"It is my problem and now it's yours because I'm not a happy girlfriend. And Emma doesn't want me unhappy. You're lucky I don't have her and Henry come back to Boston as soon as he's awake. I'm sure he hates you and doesn't even love you so leaving you would be no problem."

"Miss Paige I'd watch your tongue."

"Or what? I suggest that you Madame Mayor stay away from my girlfriend. Don't make me come back." I grit my teeth. No isn't the time or the place to go off on her. I've never been in a fist fight but god I want punch her. She walks over to Emma and kisses her cheek. Emma wakes up and looks up. Lily kisses her and I groan. Ew.

"Hi babe."

"I missed you. The best was so empty without you."

"I'm sorry. It's just Henry."

"Oh no I get it."

"Morning Regina."

"It's Madame Mayor to you Miss Swan." I say coldly and Lilith smirks.

"Baby I have to get back because of work but I'll miss you." Miss Paige grabs Emma's face and I look away because I don't want to watch people make-out. That's gross.

"Madame Mayor can I have a word?" I walk out and she slams me up against the wall chocking me.

"Don't even think about looking at Emma!" I gasp for air and she squeezes tightly.

"I have an actually record of aggravated assault and you've really pissed me off! Stay the fuck away from my girlfriend or you'll be the next on in the hospital!" She spits and then walks away. I cough and touch my throat. I try to take in any air I can. After five minutes and my breathing is just getting back to normal I walk into the room to see Henry away.

"Henry!"

"You're here?"

"Of course I'm your mother I would never leave you here alone."

"I'm not alone. My real mom is here."

"Yeah I guess she is."

"I see you're awake."

"How are you feeling?"

"My head and my leg hurts."

"Yeah well you kind of went through last night." Emma walks around the bed towards me and I step away. He checks Henry out and I stare at a blank space on the wall.

"What's wrong?"

"Get away from me. I'm not playing with you anymore. Stay away!" I snap.

It's been three days since Henry's been release. It's now been a full week of Miss Swan staying here. She started her first day at the station yesterday and I haven't moved from my bed. Rose keeps calling but I can't move. Since the hospital Henry has only gotten worse. So bad that every time I talk to him it leads him to storming away after yelling at me and crying. These past days I've never cried harder in my life. I haven't eaten. I only get up to shower and the right back into bed where I sit all day not moving then sleep and then cry. Henry's been ordering food all week. I'm sure this house is starting to look a mess butI can't bring myself to get out of bed. There's a knock on my door and I just roll over pulling my blanket tighter to my body. It's freezing cold in here.

"Are you going to get that."

"Forget it! I'll do it!" Henry buffs walking past my room. Tears fill my eyes and I let them fall. I hide my face in my pillow and I sniffle. Where did I go wrong.

"That was Emma."

"Tell her to take you to school and leave."

"No breakfast again?"

"I don't feel well Henry. Get dressed and eat some cereal but not a lot it's not good for you."

"Fine." I turn over and close my eyes thinking back to times when my son didn't hate my guts.

Flashback

I smile hearing little feet running into my room.

"Baby you can't run you might fall."

"But fun!"

"Yes running is fun but being hurt is not. Okay?"

"Otay mommy."

"What's wrong baby are yo hungry?" I ask my two year old son.

"Snuggles." He asks with wide eyes and I giggle picking him up from the floor. I hug him tightly.

"Mommy I wuv you."

"Aww baby I love you too."

"Moon back?" He asks his big brown eyes showing so much happiness it brings tears to my eyes. No one makes me as happy as Henry does. I smile and nod. He can't say 'too the moon and back' but i've easily picked up on what he is trying to say. Her just shortens it or doesn't use words to make it a sentence which is adorable.

"Watch catoon?"

"How about paw patrol baby?" He nods eagerly and starts bouncing in my lap

"I wuv show. Favowite."

"Me too."

"Yay! Mommy like me. We same."

"Henry mommy has to finish some work okay?"

"No tv with me!"

"Baby I have to finish."

"No! Tv with prince." And I promised to myself this day that I would drop my work to watch cartoons with Henry because he says it's better that way and I will never do work while he's around. I need to show him all my attention. Kids need love and I rarely got that. So Henry will get all of my love.

I start sobbing hard. Why does he hate me so much?
