It's been six years since Emma Swan died. 
72 months. 2,191 days. 
Six years, and Regina thinks about her every minute, every second, every breath. 
Constant. 
She can still hear the six, haunting, deafening clock chimes that rang out mere seconds after Emma's life ended. Finished. 

How did Emma Swan die?
It's quite the story. 

TRIGGER WARNING: Major character death! Obviously. This is an ANGST-HEAVY story. If angst is not your cup of tea, I would not recommend this fic. This fic deals with some dark heavy stuff, including: drug use, some strong language, and a form of death you may not like. (No spoilers!)

Set eight years after the season six finale. The prologue and epilogue are set six years after THAT. Emma and Regina are in an established marriage. Henry is a big part of this because.....I love him and he deserves recognition. 

A SwanQueen fanfiction based on ABC's Once Upon a Time. I do not own any of the characters.

Guilt

26 parts Complete

Everyone copes differently with the strong feeling of guilt. For the one person, it's drinking. Another might feel better after gambling, and someone else might find joy in sleeping with people and not dealing with the consequences. For Emma Swan, the last one was one that she tended to do a lot. She prefers purely physical contact over emotional bonding, but when she meets someone new and is forced to talk with her, she realizes that it isn't entirely impossible to like people she's slept with. *This is a SwanQueen fanfiction *You don't have to have watched Once Upon a Time to understand this story *This story contains mature + sexual themes, so if you don't like that, don't read it *These characters don't belong to me, they belong to Disney and ABC
