- Forget the Captain, just call me Hook.
After hearing Hook, Regina gave a smile, she could say that she was somewhat relieved to have finally found someone who could understand her pain and happy to have found this someone in Hook. Watching her smile, Hook felt his breath stuck... Your Majesty, don't smile that way, that smile might be my undoing... was the thought of the Pirate.
They heard some noises - were the seagulls announcing that a new day drew near. They had no sleep or weren't tired, they could stay there for a few extra hours just listening to the seagulls and feeling the presence of each other, but even so they decided to go to their quarters, after all they didn't want to be seen so close to each other by the rest of the group.
In her quarters, the queen grabbed her mirror and contemplated her smile... for how long haven't she smile that way... No Regina. You can't. She thought while placing the mirror on the bed. Then laying on the bed, she closed her eyes and the only thing she could do was hear the voice of the Pirate and imagining his beautiful eyes connecting with hers. She thought aloud again... No Regina! You can't! And so she fell asleep.
The Pirate couldn't sleep, the image of the Queen didn't come out of his head, her look, her manner of speaking and that smile ... oh that smile made him think of the Queen in a way that he had never before imagined.
He wanted to touch her face, wipe that stubborn tear that he had seen ... Not even he understood the turmoil of feelings that were invading him, he was fond of the feelings, but at the same time he didn't want to feel them, it was all very new, all very different, all very fast, something so right and at the same time so wrong. At that night he didn't sleep.
During the day they didn't speak to each other, but the exchange of glances was constant. Nobody noticed, was theirs secret, only theirs. No progress yet in the searches of Greg and Tamara, they decided to land in Neverland as soon as possible, but they had to be careful. Neverland was an unknown location and it was full of dangers, a plan was necessary to be traced.
Another night came and they were all together in the main division of the boat. They were discussing about the plan they needed to find Greg, Tamara and Henry but they didn't reach any conclusion.
Little by little, each one went to their chamber, emptying the division. Regina also said that she would go to sleep, but Hook noticed that she was going in the opposite direction of her quarters... she was going to where the other night they had been together.
Regina wanted again to feel the night, this time she didn't feel like crying. Although something inside of her told her that she only had gone there to see Hook, she denied. Hook waited for everyone to leave the main room, then as a impulse followed the direction that the Queen took, but he stopped in the middle of the path, perhaps she didn't want him to go where she was, maybe she wanted to be left alone, but he couldn't resist, his desire to be with her and close to her was higher.
Once again at the bow of the ship, Hook admired the beauty of the Queen who didn't notice his presence. The Pirate approached and said:
- I don't know who is more beautiful, the night or who observes it.
The Queen startled with the presence of the Pirate, turned and responded quickly:
- Captain?!
- Hook, I like to hear you calling me Hook.
- Hook ... yes, beautiful ... the night. - Said Regina a little nervous.
- And what is the Queen doing here again?
- I was thinking of Henry, we didn't come to any conclusions and we are spending a lot of time.
- Regina, is not secure to land in Neverland without having a plan first.
- But it's Henry's life that is at risk, he is my son! - Said Regina a little exalted.
- Your Majesty, if we go without any plan we will be all at risk, not only your son. It's not in my plans to die in Neverland.
Regina approached Hook, looked into his eyes and said with a certain contempt.
- You only think about yourself, Pirate.
Hook smiled and looking to the side he wanted to say that it wasn't true, because he spent the whole day only thinking about her, but he thought it was better not to say anything.
With the silence of the Pirate, the Queen angered even more and before she did or said something she shouldn't, she started to walk away.
Before she took the second step, Hook pulled her slowly by the arm, their faces were again close, the heart of the Queen began to beat stronger, the breathing of both was more intense and the blue eyes of the Pirate were locked with the bright eyes of the Queen.
Theirs lips reacted as magnets and they touched for the first time. Regina felt the breath of Hook hotter against her lips, she knew that wasn't right.
With every breath that the Queen gave, Hook felt his body closer to hers, he also knew that it was wrong.
Fearing she couldn't resist the seductive lips of the Pirate, Regina took a few steps backward, she looked at Hook's lips and then to his blue eyes, she gave a deep sigh and returned to the inside of the ship.
