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![Waking Up [SwanQueen]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/99116164-256-k654678.jpg)
Waking Up [SwanQueen]
Emma wakes up in the hospital with no memory of her life in Storybrooke with her family. When she sees Regina, though, she suddenly feels a connection between the two of them and feels like she knows her. But how? Regina takes in Emma until she can figure out how to get her memory back. Lots of hurt/comfort with eventual SwanQueen happiness! Takes place in season five without the DarkSwan storyline. Disclaimer: I don't own Once Upon A Time or any of the characters.Complete

Emma is very obviously a stud, while Regina is very femme. But she has a secret. She's intersexual, meaning she has a male reproductive system. One day their attraction for each other becomes too much and they can't hold it back any longer. Will it turn into a relationship? Or just a one time thingComplete
Guilt
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.Complete
