Regina's POV

It's Christmas morning. I make some cinnamon rolls and hot cocoa. I feel someone behind me and I blush. I turn to see her and I bite my lip.

"Don't look at me like that."

"Like what?"

"Like I'm your everything." I say.

"I don't know how else to look at you." I smile and turn around.

"Can I give you your first gift now?" I ask.

"It can't wait?" I shake my head.

"Sure. What is it?"

"Kiss me."

"Wait seriously?" I nod and she grabs my hips kissing me. My hands rest on her cheeks and I pull her closer. I whisper against her lips. It's like fire. I can't believe I waited so long for this. God! It was so worth it. She sits on the couch and I straddle her as we make out like horny teenagers. Her hands on my back. So warm and comforting. I pull away finally breathing heavy.

"Why now?"

"We've been like together or whatever we are for a while now. Almost a month so I wanted to."

"They say good things come to those who wait. And I finally believe it." I laugh.

"Can I kiss you?"

"Of course." She kisses me and it's quick but amazing.

"Mommy? Emmy?" We rush into the room and we see Henry awake.

"Merry Christmas baby." I say smiling.

"Presents?"

"Yep." He jumps out of bed and we follow. We are all in matching pajamas. So cute. I see the presents for the first time today and gasp in shock.

"Emma?"

"Don't, please don't I wanted to. I know you would get angry but you honestly deserve it. You work hard all the time and you never get a break. I wanted to do something nice for you. That's why I told you to only get Henry a few lego sets."

"I don't want your money. That not why I'm with you."

"I know that. And I don't care if you don't want me money. That's too bad. I'm with you. And Henry is my little man. I want both of you to enjoy today."

"I don't know Em."

"Please don't think about the money or the price of the gifts because it was so worth it. I know you're struggling. I know you cry sometimes because of how hard it is and how tiring it can be. So let me help you. Even if it means buying Christmas presents so you can save. Please Regina." I look at her and sigh. She's only trying to help and I can't be mad at that.

"Okay. Okay fine." She smiles and kisses my cheek. Henry starts opening and then hands one to me.

"From Emma?" It's smaller.

"Open it baby."

"Baby?" I blush.

"Open it Regina." I gasp in shock after unwrapping it and opening the case.

"Emma how m-"

"No. And it really isn't as expensive as it looks." She takes it and puts it on my wrist.

"Beautiful."

"Thank you Emma."

"Anything for you." I smile and hand one gift to her.

"Wait. Is this?" I nod.

"The vintage?" I nod.

"Regina-"

"No I can't complain about the price and neither can you."

"It's so dope thank you baby." I smile and give her a kiss when she puckers her thin pink lips out.

"Woah!" So many gifts. Legos I will have to build and step on. Oh god!

"Fuzzy socks!" I say smiling.

"You're so simple."

"I am."

"But it's okay." I nod.

That must be Ruby and Granny knocking.

"I'll get it." I say to Emma who's helping Henry with one of his Lego sets already. A smaller one.

"Hi." I let them in and Ruby goes straight to the stove to get some cinnamon rolls.

"So delicious. We would get so much customers if Granny let you make these for us."

"Oh they aren't that good Ruby." I say and Granny eats some too. They sit on the couch and we all chat and I also help Henry.

"Is it done yet?" Henry asks.

"No baby but soon. Want some cocoa?" He nods and I get up. Ruby starts to help and Emma follows me. Her arms wrap around my waist as I start making the cocoa.

"So beautiful."

"Shush."

"I'm serious. No makeup or anything and you are just mesmerizing. I can't even keep my eyes off you. I'm trying so hard." I smile and she kisses my neck. I turn around and she pecks my lips. I blush and lean up to kiss her.

"Go help Henry. The quicker the better." She pouts and walks away making me laugh. I'm so happy.
