Second Chance

70

Regina Mills-

I head back to my office, utterly broken. How is it that true loves kiss only awoken her? Why did it not jog her memory. I cannot manage this without her. I need her.

My thoughts drop as soon as I hear my phone ringing;

"H-hello..." I mumble down the phone, wiping away my tears.

"Hello madam mayor, it's nurse jones here, I'm just calling to say Emma has ran from the hospital, and to tell you to stay strong. If you're a mess around her it will cause her to break down and shut herself away. You need to be the same person you was with Emma, the same snappy sassy mayor we all know deep down. You need to make her remember you and fall in love with you all over again.."

"T-thank you, I'll go look for her now" I nod, wiping away my tears and standing up. "Thank you again" I hang up and grab my coat again. I open the office door and wonder down the hallway quite quickly on my toes, until I'm yanked into the cleaning room.

She yanks on my collar and forced me against the shelves. "Emma, What are you doing here?" I gasp as she forces me against the shelving with force.

"I don't know why I'm here but I'm having a deja vu... I guess I came here because it stood out, I don't know Storybrooke, it's not even on the map so I need answers. NOW!"

"I cannot give you answers Emma, I'd love to but I don't know why you've lost your memories but I will find out who did this to you" I say with vengeance dripping lustfully off the tip of my tongue as my shaky hand reaches for her flushed cheek.

"Right, because you're the evil queen: wow soo scary" she sarcastically whispers.

"What? No Emma... I'm not that person..: anymore. You're getting deja vu because we've done this before. You had me pinned against the shelves at you're parents house and...."

"They're NOT my parents" she spits angrily.

"Okay... I'm sorry... anyway, you had me pinned and you hated me for being dragged away by a doctor. You was jealous and you shut me out but what you didn't know is that he raped me... so we got angry at one another and I told you and then finally we allowed our true feelings to be known after all that time. That night was the first night we confessed everything Emma. I do love you and you do love me, you just need me to prove it again." I say with confidence. If I'm the confident woman Emma fallen in love with, then I can be that person all over again.

"Look lady. I don't know you, and I don't know how you're pregnant but do you not think it's down to the doctor? I mean it's scientifically impossible"

"But it's magically possible dear" I hiss back, running my tongue between my teeth. "You know, I love you pinning me up here with all anger, it's really turning me on"

She lets go of me instantly with anger. "FUCK!" She screams, hitting her hands on the shelves. "I don't understand. There's no way you and I have magic, and it doesn't make sense why I've got naked pictures of you on my phone or why I've got your pregnancy scan photos or how I have son! Nothing is making sense"

"You just need time baby.."

"I'm not your baby!" She snaps with anger.

"Okay... Em-ma" I need her to fall for the infuriating impossible person I am. That way I become irresistible and I know how hard it is for Emma to restrain herself from me. "Look... I have magic..." I draw out, forcing a flame to appear out of my hand.

"What the ffff... What are you?" She stumbles backwards hitting her back on the shelves as I force the flames to disappear.

"Not what dear, who. I was the evil queen until you and I become best friends when we were seventeen. I had a son and my mother forced me to give him up. You adopted him and become his mother but we were so madly in love but never admitted it. Until you come to Storybrooke, a town I created with my curse and forced all these people here. Emma, we share him and you got me pregnant! We're having another little boy, in six weeks time actually, I need you Emma!" I cry softly. "How else do you explain the photos and the kiss and ..."

"I don't know! I'm still processing the fact you have magic and you're supposedly the evil queen. I don't understand how you and I can make a baby. It just.... it doesn't make sense" she shrugs. "I'll see you around"

"Wait!!" I yell, stopping her from leaving the room. "Get to know me- again. It may help you jog your memory. I need you. Our son needs you"

"I'll think about it." She shrugs again.

And with that she was gone. I watched out the window as she crosses the road and runs down the street that leads back to the hospital. I guess there was some answers she just needed proving. But unfortunately it's a lot to take in and a hell of a lot to believe.

But if anyone can help her believe it's Henry.
