[Emma's POV]

Emma stood on Regina's porch, nervously swaying back and forth on the balls of her feet.

She straightened up when she heard clicking of heels, and knew it was Regina's mother coming to open the front door.

She took in a calming breath, letting it out slowly and with it, all the nervousness she was feeling.

This was supposed to be a fun night, and being nervous was not going to help with that.

The door opened and Emma was immediately pulled in by Regina's mom, the door closing behind her.

"Oh, don't you look handsome!" Cora said, giving Emma a once over, before she pulled the young girl in for a quick hug.

"Thanks, ma'am!" Emma replied, her excitement growing with each passing second.

"Come on in. Regina should be down any minute. Would you like some apple cider while you wait?"

Emma nodded and eagerly followed the older brunette through the corridor, almost dropping the corsage she had in her hand. "Oops." She said, looking around to see if anyone noticed.

She breathed a sigh of relief when Cora was already in the kitchen, but froze in place when she heard a chuckle coming from the top of the stairs.

She knew it was Regina, and tried to centre herself, wetting her lips as her emerald eyes moved to where they knew a certain brunette would be.

She was still caught off guard by the beauty her eyes landed on, her heart actually skipping a beat, before it began thumping inside of her chest.

[Regina's POV]

As she made her way to the staircase, Regina couldn't help but to feel nervous again.

She stopped just at the top, taking in a few calming breaths to try and steady herself, but her hands would not stop shaking.

When she heard footsteps, she looked down toward the hallway, her breath hitching when she saw Emma following her mother.

Regina couldn't take her eyes off the blonde. The blonde was actually dressed in a tuxedo and she looked absolutely stunning. Brown eyes took in the well fitted tuxedo, the thing hugging Emma's figure perfectly. Her hair was in a slicked back ponytail, making Emma look like those fierce runway models.

That was until the blonde dropped the corsage, and clumsily tried to catch it, causing Regina to giggle and forget about how nervous she was a few moments ago.

[General POV]

"Whoa." Fell past Emma's lips.

"Is that a good whoa or a bad one?" Regina asked as she regally descended the stairs.

"It's a... wow. Regina you look-"

Emerald eyes raked over the brunette's form, taking in the woman's strapless, powder blue ball gown. An actual ball gown with a full skirt that reached the floor. The bodice was form fitted, covered in silver sequence, and a simple, silver bangle was on her arm. Her hair fell down her back in soft curls, and over the front of her shoulders, with a tiara topping it all off. Regina looked like an actual fairytale princess.

"I look?" She asked, taking the final two steps, stopping right in front of Emma.

"Beautiful. Breathtakingly so." Emma all but whispered, fiddling with the corsage in her hand.

A smile adorned the brunette's features. She leaned forward and placed a kiss upon Emma's cheek. "Thanks, Em." She said, smiling shyly. "You don't look so bad yourself."

"Right?" Emma replied, giving an exaggerated turn.

"You look stunning. I have to admit, when you said you weren't going to wear a dress, I was a bit worried."

"A bit?" Emma asked, raising a knowing brow.

"Okay, I was beyond worried, but you look amazing."

"Nothing compared to you."

"Okay, okay! You both look amazing." Came her father's voice, causing both Regina and Emma's cheeks to turn pink. "Photo time!"

Emma looked at Regina and pulled a face.

"Oh, come on! Just one. Please?"

Emma knew she'd take a hundred pictures if Regina wanted to, but she couldn't help but say; "Alright! But you'll owe me a dance, okay? Your very first one!"

Regina all but beamed, taking hold of Emma's hand as she led the blonde to the side of the stairs. "Alright, fine!"

"Alright you two, say cheese!"

"Dad, wait! We're not ready."

"Already snapped a few." Henry said, earning a gasp from Regina. "Alright, get ready, here goes the flash."

Emma snaked her arm around Regina's waist, pulling the brunette close, causing Regina to look up at her with a big smile just as the flash went off.

"Emma! Put the corsage on Regina's arm!" Emma did as was told, surprised to find that the corsage matched Regina's dress perfectly.

A few hundred photos later, Emma breathed a sigh of relief when she heard honking coming from outside. "That's our ride. We have to go."

Regina nodded and ran over to her mother and father, giving them both a hug and kiss on the cheek. "I love you both."

"We love you too, darling. Have fun!"

"I will." Regina said as she took her clutch, sending her parents a little wave before walking past Emma who was holding the door open for her.

"Oh my god, your dad sure loves taking photos." Emma said with a laugh as she took hold of Regina's hand, leading the brunette to the outstretched limo that was parked outside.

"Whose idea was this, again?"

"Ruby, of course. Come on, she said there'll be champagne."

As they reached the limo, the door opened and Emma urged Regina to get in first.

When the brunette didn't move any further, Emma frowned. "What's wrong?"

Regina got back out, "There's not enough space for the both of us."

Emma looked inside, and once she greeted the whole gang, she stepped inside and told Regina to follow her.

The driver closed the door and Emma tugged on Regina's hand, pulling the brunette towards her. "I suppose you'll have to sit on my lap."

"Oooooh." Ruby said, causing Mulan, Aurora and Belle to laugh, but Regina merely rolled her eyes and elegantly lowered herself onto Emma's lap.

"Okay, people! Let's get this party started."

Suddenly, music was blasting through speakers and glasses filled with champagne was being passed around. "To prom!" Ariel said, clinking glasses with Eric.

"To prom!" Killian added, clinking his glass with August's, sending him a sly wink before taking a sip.

Regina felt Emma's arms snake around her waist, the blonde's hands coming to rest on the brunette's stomach. "Is this okay?" Emma whispered into Regina's ear.

Regina merely nodded and bit down on her lower lip, placing her hands on top of Emma's. She looked over her shoulder, brown eyes meeting green and said, "Perfect."
