A Second Chance

22 chapter

Emma was woken up by her doorbell. She groaned and got out of bed to open the door.
"What?"
"Good morning to you too" Ruby said walking in the apartment.
"Sorry, I was sleeping." Emma said making them a cup of coffee. "What's up?"
"I'm here as a delivery guy, Regina thought you would be tired because of the baby so she asked me to bring you something for lunch and dinner."
"Why didn't she come?" Emma asked with a frown putting the food Ruby brought away.
"She said she wanted to give you the space and time you needed." Ruby said and Emma sighed.
"Do you think I should have stayed?" Emma asked.
"I don't know, Em... You're the only one who can answer that." Ruby said and before Emma could answer Aiden started to cry. "I'll go." Ruby said and Emma nodded. Emma picked up her phone and texted Regina.

Emma: thanks for the food... You didn't need to tho
Regina: you're welcome, I just thought you would be tired. And of course I needed to...
Emma: I am tired, but it's worth it... You could had come here yourself you know?
Regina: I didn't want you to feel pressured... Do you think I can come over to see Aiden?
Emma:I wouldn't... And of course you can, he's your son too and I think he misses you... You could come and have lunch with us.
Regina:I would love to. Do you need me to get something before I go there?
Emma:no, see you soon

"I think he's hungry" Ruby said entering the kitchen with Aiden.
"Of course he is, he's my son after all" Emma said with a chuckle and start feeding Aiden.
"I almost forgot! You got another letter. Do you want me to put them next to the others?" Ruby said and Emma shook her head.
"Just put it in the counter, I'll take a look at it later."
"You never wanted to keep the letters... Are you thinking about accepting?" Ruby asked with a frown.
"I'm just curious Ruby." Emma said and Ruby nodded.
"Okay, well I gotta go to work, bye" Ruby said and walked out of the apartment. Emma finished feeding Aiden and put him to sleep. She took a shower and got dressed and then she started getting the things ready for lunch. When she was done with everything, it was already lunch time and Regina was knocking on the door.
"Hi" Regina said with a smile.
"Hey" Emma said smiling back and letting her in.
"How are you?"
"I'm good, you?" Emma asked and Regina shrugged.
"Where's Aiden?"
"He should be up anytime..."
"Okay, well shall we eat?" Regina asked and Emma nodded. Regina set at the table and Emma put the food on the table. They start eating and when they were finished Regina helped Emma with the dishes. After a while Aiden woke up and Emma and Regina played with him the rest of the afternoon.

Henry wanted to spend the day with Daniel so after school Daniel picked him up. They went to Daniel's house and start playing a game. Daniel's phone start ringing and Daniel went to his office to answer. About 10minutes went by and Henry went looking for his father. He heard Daniel talk and stayed outside the office.

"Yeah, I know I said it would be quick but that blonde is giving me more problems than I thought.... Well I wasn't expecting for her to be pregnant.... Yes, I know and I tried but she survived, she had to wake up from that stupid coma and make everything harder on me....The kid is a brat, he's always with me, he doesn't give me a time to breath.... Well I think he's our best chance, he wants me and mommy to be together so he may help me... Don't worry, at the end of the month I'll be in her will and we can get rid of them.... Bye" Daniel said and hung up. Henry was crying and headed back to the living room.
"What's up kid, want some pizza for dinner?"
"I want to go home." Henry said wiping his tears.
"I thought you were spending the night?" Daniel asked with a frown.
"I changed my mind. I want my moms."
"Okay then, let's get you to them."  Daniel drove over to Regina's but no one was there so he called her. She said she was at Emma's and Daniel said he would take Henry there. They got there and Henry got out of the car.
"Bye, Henry!" Daniel shouted but Henry gave him no answer. Henry knocked on the door and Regina opened.
"Have you been crying?" Regina asked when she noticed her son's face. He ignored her and went inside of the house. When he spotted his blonde mother on the couch with his brother he run over to them. He hugged Emma and Emma taken aback by the situation hugged him back.
"I love you, ma!" Henry stated and Emma looked at Regina with a frown.
"What's going on?" She asked him when he pulled back.
"Nothing, I just want you to know that I'm sorry for the way I've been treating you and that I love you and that I'm proud to call you ma." He said. Emma and Regina looked at each other with a frown not understanding where this was coming from. "Can we watch a movie?"
"Uh... Sure, why don't you go chose one?" Emma asked and Henry nodded leaving the room. "What just happened?"
"I have no ideia, was it just me or he seemed like he had been crying?"
"No, I saw it too." Henry came back into the room and they watch the movie. When the movie was over Henry and Aiden were asleep.
"Well I think I should get this not so little anymore one home" Regina said with a chuckle.
"It's late and you're tired, I'm not going to let you go home like that. Henry can take the spare room" Emma said getting up. Regina nodded and picked Henry up. Regina took Henry to the room and lied him while Emma put Aiden to sleep on his crib in her room. They headed back the living room and Regina lied on the couch covering herself with a blanket
"What are you doing?" Emma asked with a frown.
"Sleeping... Well trying too."
"Not happening..." Emma said and Regina frowned. Emma extended her hand. "Come on, let's go to bed" Emma said with a smile and Regina took her hand. They headed to Emma's bedroom and Emma put on an oversized t-shirt lending Regina a similar one. They got in bed and Emma pulled the duvet over them. When she was almost asleep Regina cuddle to her side.
"Goodnight, Em." Regina said fell asleep after.
"Goodnight, Gina. I love you." Emma said and kissed Regina before falling asleep.
