A/N: So this is my first story ever and I hope it doesn't completely suck. This is different take on Swan Queen then I have ever read. It is going to be very fluffy and sweet at times but it was also involve a lot of fighting as well as they try to overcome their past. This story is taking place a year after the curse was broke. Henry is going to be 12 and Emma and Regina have been together for about a year. There was no Greg or Tamara and there was no going to Neverland. I really hope you like it and please let me know what you think. So without further due.. I give you.. Running Through Fire.
"Emma, I said no and I mean no. Do not start this with me." Regina told her overly stubborn girlfriend.
"I don't understand what the big deal is?" Emma stated with her best puppy dog pout.
"The big deal is, I don't want you in my room, nor lying in my bed to take a nap while I'm in the shower. The last thing I need is you going through my stuff!" Regina stated in a louder tone. She was growing more angry by the minute.
"Come on, what makes you think I would go through it, and why does it matter? What are you hiding?" Emma asked, suddenly beginning to think her girlfriend was hiding something.
"Why do I have to be hiding something? It is my house and my room and I don't want you in here."
"This is so childish." Emma spat at her.
"No, this is me not wanting you to touch my stuff." Regina yelled. She was getting very impatient. She had guest down stairs and spilt some wine on her and needed to clean herself up and get back to her party.
"Regina! What are you hiding? Is there something in the closet you don't want me to see?" Emma giggled a bit at this considering they had only come out about their relationship to everyone only 6 months ago but had been dating nearly a year.
"Emma, do not go into that closet! Don't even touch the door." Regina demanded her.
Emma walked over to the closet and acted like she was going to touch it.
"EMMA SWAN!" Regina yelled.
Emma playfully touched the door just to bug Regina.
"That's it, get out of my room. Go down stairs and get away from me. I do not have the time nor do I wish to waste any time on your insolence. " Regina told her.
Emma was shocked. It had been almost a good 2 months since they had a fight and Emma wasn't in the mood for it today. They had been fighting all week.
"Fine Regina." Emma said sadly as she left with tears in her eyes.
She stopped by Henrys room when she noticed he was in there.
"Ma, what's wrong?" Henry asked her.
"Your mother and I aren't having a good day." Emma told him sadly.
"What happened?" He asked as he patted the spot next to him on his bed signaling her to sit with him.
"I don't know if you should get involved H."
"Please, I wanna help."
And with that Emma told Henry everything and she couldn't help but start to cry.
"No Ma, don't cry! I have an idea!" He said with a smile.
"She didn't say I couldn't go in there! I'll see if she is hiding something!" he told her not waiting for an answer.
"Henry, I don't.."
Before she could finish he raced off to the master bedroom. Just as he was going into the closet Emma walked into the room and Regina walked out of the bathroom looking as regal as ever with her perfectly fixed chocolate locks and smelling of apple shampoo from her fresh shower.
"What the hell is going on?" She demanded .
"Regina, I tried to stop him" Emma pleaded.
"You brought our son into this Emma?" Regina said trying not to raise her voice in front of Henry.
"No mom, is wasn't Emma.." Henry tried but was quickly cut off.
"Go back to your room Henry." Regina told him.
Henry didn't need to be told twice, he left as quickly as he came.
"Regina please.."
"No Emma. We will deal with this later."
Down stairs everyone was looking at them as if they already knew what was going on. Emma's eyes were red and puffy from crying and it was quiet obvious was pissed off.
"Is everything okay sweetheart" Snow asked her daughter.
"I don't think this is the time to talk about it" Emma told her mom.
For about another thirty minutes everyone continued to just stare and wonder what happened between the two woman who were hosting this party.
"Regina, I really think we need to talk." Emma tried talking to her girlfriend.
"Emma, this is not the place for this." Regina said walking away.
"No, I think it is the place."
"Miss Swan, you let go of my arm or so help me God I will…"
"You'll what Regina?"
"Can I speak to you outside. I think it is time for you to go." Regina said annoyed.
"No Regina, you can't. Whatever you wanna say to me you can say in front of everyone."
Everyone was staring at them wondering what Regina was going to do.
"Are you sure you want to do that dear? Could be a bit embarrassing." Regina told her.
"What are you gonna do Regina? Break up with me?" Emma teased.
When Regina said nothing but gave her that all knowing smirk Emma gasped.
"Well if you are then just do it! Get it over with. I'm sick of this fighting!" Emma yelled!
"You know what? So am I Emma! WE ARE DONE!" Regina screamed to everyone.
With that Emma ran out of the house sobbing into her hands at what had just happened.
It had been three days since they broke up. Three days since Emma had spoken to Regina. It was Monday and David took her shift at the office. She laid in her bed crying. Trying not to text Regina and beg for her back. Or that they could at least talk about things. She gave in. She grabbed her phone off the night stand and sent a text to Regina.
Regina was in her home office when her phone beeped. She decided to work from home that day. She grabbed the phone from her desk and seen she had a text from Emma. She was debating whether she should read it or not. She decided she would. She couldn't deny that she missed the blonde but at the moment she didn't regret her decision to end things.
Love of My Life (heart emoji): Hey Regina, I really feel like we should talk about what happened Friday night. I didn't even get a chance to explain. I miss you. I miss us. Can we meet?
She typed back quickly and pressed send before she could change her mind.
Not today Miss Swan, I am very busy.
Love of My Life (heart emoji): Miss Swan? Are we really back to that? Come on, do you really wanna throw away almost a year together over this? If not get back together, I think I at least deserve the chance to explain my side of the story.
Fine, come over around seven, Henry is staying with a friend tonight anyways. But just so you know Emma, I have no intentions on apologizing for my behavior. I had a perfectly good reason for you to not be in my room. But we can discuss that tonight.
Love of My Life (heart emoji): Okay, and Regina?
Yes?
Love of My Life (heart emoji): I love you.
I love you too dear.
Across town Emma was so giddy that she could hardly contain the screaming of excitement she was having to hopefully be getting back with Regina tonight. She was surprised that she even got an I love you back from the woman. But she would take it.
