Thin Walls
"What's making you so anxious?" I swallowed thickly and straightened my posture. "I want to ask you a question," I said, softly, making sure no one could hear me. "What is it?" She spoke loudly and clearly didn't take a hint. "It's quite personal," I said. "It's about.. sex." I almost mouthed the last word, afraid that someone would hear me. I didn't need to have everyone in town know the mayor asked her friends filthy questions. ~~~ Emma has just opened up a new shop, one that doesn't meet Regina's principles, so when the latter decides to meet with this woman, she finds out Emma isn't as awful as she'd figured at first. *You don't have to have watched Once Upon a Time to understand this story *I don't own any of the characters, they belong to ABC and Disney * This story contains mature contentComplete
The School Play
"Did anyone ever tell you you're really pretty?" Emma asked. Regina seemed utterly confused at Emma's words and didn't quite know how to respond. "You don't have to be afraid of the mirror, you're really pretty. I don't know what your mother or anyone else has said to you and I know you don't like me, nor do I like you, but I just wanted to have said that." ~~~ Emma is a very biased person. She is well aware of that herself and she's not planning on changing anytime soon. When she meets Regina in her new class, she doesn't like the girl. Regina is stuck-up, popular and can't handle people disliking her, so they don't match at all. When Emma auditions for the main part in the school play, simply to spite Regina, both have to deal with the consequences. *This is a SwanQueen fanfiction *You do not have to have watched Once Upon a Time to understand this story *This story contains mature (sexual) content *This is quite a slow burn *I do not own these characters, they belong to Disney and ABCComplete
