Chapter 17

That was way too easy. Emma looks back at the house, still detecting some music pumping through the walls. She smiles and shakes her head.

"Ruby can really throw a party huh?" She glances at the dark haired woman walking next to her. Regina smiles for a moment, looking back at the house herself.

"She does indeed." Regina turned back around and rubs her hands along her arms briefly.

"Are you cold?"

"Oh no, I'm fine." But Emma was already shrugging off her jacket. "Really Emma, I'm alright." Emma ignores her and wraps the jacket around Regina's shoulders anyway.

"Just take it Your Majesty. I know you've always liked my read leather jacket. Stop fighting it." Emma winks and Regina chuckles, but then tries to scowl at her.

"This is a hideous jacket." Emma rolls her eyes and sticks her hands in her back pocket. "However, on me, it is decidedly less atrocious." It was Emma's turn to laugh, she removes one hand from her pocket and reaches for Regina's free swinging hand. Her fingertips brush the inside of the woman's palm. Regina looks down at their hands and curls her fingers into Emma's hand. Their fingers intertwine with ease and they both smile shyly at each other. Feels like the most natural thing in the world. Emma's eyes twinkle.

"And on me?" Regina looks over at Emma a smirk ghosting her lips, and shrugs noncommittally. Emma gasps in mock offence and nudges Regina with her elbow. "Really Your Majesty? Would it kill you to admit I look good in that jacket?" Regina purses her lips in thought for a moment as they turn onto Mifflin Street.

"I think—"Regina stops walking jerking Emma to a sudden stop. Emma looks back at her. Regina leans in close to Emma, causing her to draw in a sharp breath. "I think you'd look better without the jacket—" Emma's smile drops somewhat, but before she can say anything Regina continues, her voice dropping to a low octave like it did back on the porch. "Or anything else Sheriff." Emma mouth went bone dry and a growing heat was spreading in the pit of her stomach. She was frozen in place as Regina let out a low chuckle and took off up the street, leaving the Sheriff on the corner trying to gather herself. Emma came too suddenly jerking her head towards the white mansion halfway up the street.

"Oh Madame Mayor, you're going to pay for that!" she shouts taking off after the retreating form of the dark hair woman. Regina let out a wild laugh, glancing behind her at Emma charging up the street.

"Oh, but Sheriff, you're going to have to catch me first for that." Regina reaches down to open her front door, before slipping silently inside. Emma blew out a long breath, pausing at the door and shaking her head she let out a short chuckle. Why did this take us so long? A voice from the interior of the house brought her out of her thoughts. "Oh Miss Swan, I'm waiting!" Emma pushes open the door slowly peering into the dim foyer, scanning it quickly for signs of the brunette. Her scan continues as she steps through the door and up the short set of stairs. The house is dark and the moonlight from the outside casts shadows across everything.

"Hiding from me Mayor? Not like you to back down. Must be losing your touch." Her mocking tone has just enough bite in it that she knows Regina won't be able to resist responding.

"Losing my touch? Well for your sake I hope that's not true." The voice floats across the air, seeming to come from several different directions. Then suddenly she feels a presence behind her, pretending not to notice she speaks again.

"So confident, maybe you're all talk darling." Her suspicions are confirmed when she hears a sharp hiss behind her. Before Regina can respond however Emma whirls around grabbing the woman's wrists and pulling them above Regina's head and forcing her back against the wall. Emma stops inches from the other woman's face, her grin widening at the sight of Regina's surprised expression. "Well, well, well what do I have here? Not so easy to sneak up on am I Madame Mayor?" Regina struggles to release her hands from Emma's grip, but Emma has experience on her side and she gets nowhere.

"Release me." Regina's head lifts haughtily. Man that looks suits her.

"Nah, I rather like you this way. Makes it easier to do this."

"Do wh—" Regina's reply is cut off when Emma's lips start kissing up her neck to the shell of her ear and back down. When she reaches Regina's pulse point she sucks hard drawing a gasp from the dark haired woman. "Fuck, Emma—"

"Shh later, we'll get to that." Regina glances down at her, making eye contact.

"That's n—"She's interrupted again by Emma's mouth, this time biting down hard on her pulse point, causing Regina to let out a sharp cry. As Emma continues Regina's breaths start becoming pants, her chest moving rapidly.

"Enough!" Regina jerks her arms down, surprising Emma by breaking her grip. Before Emma can react Regina spins her around and pins her against the wall before crashing their lips together in a fierce kiss. Emma fought back for control of the kiss and when Regina leaned back Emma tugged at her lips with her teeth. Regina let go of Emma's hands and rested her own on Emma's hips, squeezing tightly. Emma's arms settled around the back of her neck. Both women were breathing heavily. Gods her eyes are beautiful.

"Regina—"Emma took a deep breath and rested her forehead against Regina's.

"Emma?" Regina tilted her head sideways and nuzzling Emma's cheek, her fingers playing with the bottom edges of Emma's shirt.

"As much as I'd love to do this right here—"She sucks in a breath when Regina's hand slipped under her shirt caressing her stomach. "Yeah that's not helping!" Regina chuckles a smirk growing on her face.

"It's not meant to dear." Regina's other hand was starting to play with her waistband.

"I want to do this right, the first time at least. You deserve that much at least." Regina's fingers freeze and her chin lifts to make eye contact with Emma. She stares at Emma for a moment before once again crushing their lips together. A moment later she felt a lifting sensation, opening her eyes she gasps seeing herself surrounded by light purple smoke. In the next moment she found herself staring around Regina's room for the second time that evening. She glance at Regina and quirks her eyebrow. "Really you couldn't stand to walk the thirty feet to your room?" Regina shrugs her shoulders and pushes Emma back towards the bed causing her to lose her balance and flop down.

"Why waste time my dear, when there are much better ways to spend it?" Regina glides forward and settles herself on top of Emma's lap, and Emma's hands automatically curl around her hips drawing her even closer. Emma nuzzles her face in Regina's neck, kissing from her collarbone to under her ear. Regina's head fell back with a deep moan, one Emma felt resonating throughout her own chest.

"Hmm, better ways indeed." Emma ran her hands up and down Regina's back a couple times before rounding her shoulders and pulling her outer sweater down the woman's arms. Regina shrugs the sweater the rest of the way off and sits back staring at Emma. Emma quirks her eyebrow up. "What?" Regina simply smiles and slipped her shirt over her head and Emma took in the show of skin before her. She lightly ran her fingertips across Regina's stomach watching the muscles underneath ripple, and up her torso, circling her breasts and eliciting a shiver from the dark haired woman. Finally she wraps her hands around Regina's back unclasping her bra and pulls it off of her. Then she moves her hands to the back of Regina's neck and pulling her down. She felt Regina's hands slip around her and her mouth open. Emma surges forward locking them in a passionate kiss and rolling Regina over onto her back at the same time. Rising up Emma laughs at the incredulous look on Regina's face.

"What?" She said to the pouting face looking back at her.

"I'm the top." Emma laughs again.

"You've got to loosen the reins a bit Madame Mayor." Regina nose crinkles as she eyes Emma, bucking her hips in an attempt to regain control. Emma presses her hips down gently and nuzzles Regina neck until the other woman giggles. When she finally pulls back Regina grins shyly. "Let someone else do the work for once okay?" Regina's lips purse together for a moment before she smirks and nods.

"Alright Miss Swan, show me what you got." Emma grins and moves to claim the other woman's lips once again, while also slipping her knee in between Regina's thighs, pressing up on her core. Regina let out a soft moan into Emma's mouth, Emma used this opportunity to slip her tongue in her mouth. She took her time exploring there before moving down to Regina's throat then her collarbone tracing a path with open mouth kisses and her tongue.

She moved slowly down Regina's body, taking time to swirl patterns around Regina's breasts. By this time Regina was writhing beneath her, breathing heavy.

"Emma..." At the sound of Regina's trembling voice Emma looks up, Regina stares back at her chest heaving. "…please, no teasing."

"Yes ma'am." This time her mouth descends quickly down Regina's body until she reaches her core and hovers there a moment taking in the small slip of silk before her. Emma then slowly starts pulling it down, kissing the each new expanse of skin she encounters. "I can't even begin to describe how long I've been waiting for this, for you." Regina chuckles and sits up on her elbows.

"Well then Miss Swan, what on Earth are you waiting for?" She cocks an eyebrow in challenge. Emma smirks and licks one straight line up Regina's center eliciting a sharp cry from the other woman. Another lick had Regina's head falling back onto the mattress with a moan. After a few more well placed licks Emma pulls back, Regina growls in displeasure. "Miss Swan!"

"Just hold your horses there Madame Mayor I'm not done." Emma kisses her way back up Regina's body and seizes her mouth in a burning kiss just as she slides two fingers into the woman's warm heat. Regina sucks in a breath, holding it as she adjusts to the new sensation. Emma leans in by Regina's ear. "Breathe Regina, you have to breathe." With that Regina lets out a shaky breath. Emma waits until she takes another breath before she starts moving inside Regina, pumping slowly at first building a wave of tension up until Regina's moans become pants and finally a low whine. Emma pulls her head back from the crook of Regina's neck and both women make eye contact. Then Regina's orgasm washes over her and her eyes slam shut as she thrusts her head back into the mattress. Emma continues pumping steadily to help Regina ride out the force of the orgasm.

"Wow, that was—"Regina tries to catch her breath.

"Amazing? Spectacular? Stupendous?" Regina lifts her head slightly to glare at Emma.

"Average." Emma rolls her eyes and gives Regina's oversensitive clit a flick causing the other woman to jerk and shudder.

"Whatever Regina you know that was awesome." Emma slips her hand out of Regina tracing a pattern up her body.

"Ever so elegant my dear." Regina slides her arms around Emma's waist pulling them even closer together.

"Yup, drunkish me is very good with words." Regina chuckles and Emma sighs. "I think I'm falling in love with your laugh." Emma reaches up to stoke the side of Regina's face lightly. Regina smiles and turns her head slightly to place a kiss on Emma wandering fingertips.

"I—"Regina starts but then blushes and breaks eye contact with Emma. Emma ducks her head down and places a soft kiss on the bridge of her nose causing it to wrinkle and Regina to lift her head. "What did I say about nose kisses?" Emma grins.

"I know, just trying to get your attention. Finish that sentence, promise I won't laugh or anything."

"I don't think you'll laugh dear. I'm afraid."

"Afraid? Afraid of what?"

"Afraid you might—"Regina pauses turning red once again.

"Run? It's ok you can say it, my history isn't the best."

"Maybe not but you don't judge me by mine, so I should stop judging you based on yours. Okay here goes." She takes a deep breath. "I—I think I'm falling in love with you." Regina turns her head away from Emma to look across the bed. Emma's fingers brush along her jaw line, pulling her chin back towards her, when they make eye contact Emma leans in kisses her soundly.

"I love you too, Regina. No more running, you're my home." Regina stares at her for a moment.

"Your home, yes I like the sound of that."
