"Don't touch anything!" Regina insisted towards Emma as they walked in Regina's secret room. Regina made her way a few steps in front of Emma and gazed at a chest in front of her. Emma walked slowly towards Regina while something caught her eye. It was on a shelf to her left. She pivoted towards it with a puzzled look on her face. Regina opened the chest and started to turn around. Emma picked the object up and viewed it with a lost look.

"I said, Don't Touch!" Regina exclaimed with a deep voice while she strutted towards Emma and grabbed the item out of her hands and slammed it back down on the shelf. Emma stepped back while Regina yelled at her. Regina went back towards the chest and eyed the inside.

"So while we're here, who's looking after Henry the un-charmings?" she voiced as she moved things around in the chest.

"Actually, hook is." Emma informed as she put her hands in her front pockets and moved closer to where Regina was slightly bent down over the chest. Regina shot right up and pivoted towards Emma.

"Those two have been spending a lot of time together lately?" Regina voiced as she shot Emma a disapproving look. Emma slightly frowned at that and replied with.

"He's good with Henry, and Henry likes him." Emma hummed as she shrugged and wanted Regina to approve. Regina frowned angrily and turned back towards the chest.

"He's prone to violence, impulsive, and has a hook for a hand. What about him would a twelve year old not like?" Regina stated while a disgusted look danced upon her face.

"I trust him. He brought me back to Storybrook and he didn't have to." Emma tried to explain, but she couldn't. Regina picked up a book in the chest.

"Oh, of course he brought you back." Regina let out in a sigh as she turned back towards Emma with that book in her hand.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Emma questioned as she looked at the book in Regina's hands. Regina rolled her eyes in displease.

"Seriously? You're going to pretend everyone doesn't see the yearning looks and doey eyes?" Regina let out with anger in her silent yet noticeable voice. She kept her gaze at her feet unable to look Emma in the eyes. Emma frowned once more. It seemed as if the whole time she had been frowning.

"I don't yearn." Emma tried to let out with reassurance but Regina cut her off.

"Well maybe...but he does." She said still not able to look at Emma. Emma puzzled Regina's face as she tried to processes the way she was talking to her. Regina grunted and turned back around to the chest to close it.

"Are you jealous?" Emma questioned Regina while she squinted her eyes and tried to read her actions. Regina pivoted back around towards Emma and shot her a sad face.

"I am supposed to be teaching you magic right now not talking about your love life." Regina tried to explain while she opened up the book that lay in her hands. What Emma really yearned for was a straight answer from Regina.

"Now, let's start on your lesson." Regina said after a short awkward silence. She tried to dismiss the question Emma had asked her, but it was so hard. What if I would have answered her? What if I would have answered her honestly? She would never... Regina thought to herself long and hard and then Emma opened her mouth and spoke.

"You are Jealous." Emma let out as she saw Regina look up at her. Her heart beat suddenly sped up when she saw the sadden look on Regina's face. She suddenly started to regret saying that. Dammit Emma why do you have to be so.. She saw that Regina's eyes started to swell up and tiny puddles of water started to form.

"I'm sorry Regina, I shouldn't have. I know you haven't had a relationship in a while..." Emma voiced in an awkward manner. Tears started to dance down Regina's redden cheeks. Regina started to laugh and wipe away her tears whilst she walked across the room with a hand on her hip. Emma looked at her feet in confusion and crossed her arms.

"Oh, dear you have no idea. I'm not jealous because I haven't been in a relationship in a while, by the way thanks for bringing that up." Regina sing-songed while she straightened her posture. Emma chuckled under her breath.

"Emma... I'm jealous because I wish I was in hooks position." Regina sighed while she turned around to look at Emma. She had an at lost look painted across her face.

"You want to be with Henry right now?" Emma questioned while she watched Regina's facial expression. Regina looked up at the ceiling and started to laugh.

"Yes, Emma I do wish to be with my son right now, but that's now why I'm jealous." Regina let out while she let Emma try and figure it out.

"Regina, I don't know."

"I'm jealous because Emma, I…I like you." She voiced as she could feel her heart thump faster and faster. She could feel the blood boil in her cheeks.

Emma just stood there blinking with her mouth slightly a gape. Those words played in her head. She trying to process the words that had just rolled off Regina's tongue, but it was difficult. Did that really just happen? She thought to herself.

"Emma say something."
