"Hey."

"Hey." Regina says as Emma sits beside her on a wooden bench.

Emma faces Regina and hands her a steamy cup of coffee and begins to sip on her own.

"Mmm, this is nice." Regina says as the couple continues to snuggle on the bench, trying to shield themselves from the cold Maine air.

Emma begins to open the white bag she had in her other hand, and pulls out a giant bear claw.

"Really Em, must you eat those? They'll send you to an early grave." Regina says as she motions to the glazed covered treat.

"I like them." Emma says defiantly as she reaches in the white bag again an pulls out a apple turnover and hands it to Regina.

"Plus I brought something for you too."

Regina's eyes light up at the sight of the blonde having had recreated almost perfectly her secret turnover recipe that she showed her a week prior.

"Only the best for you my queen." Emma says playfully as she hands over the crispy treat.

"I suppose if I'm your queen that would make you my white knight, huh?" Regina says as a playful grin crosses her face.

"Oh! By the way guess who called?" Emma says.

"Who?"

"Killian."

"Oh really?" Regina says as curiosity laces her voice, "how's he doing?"

"Good, in fact better than good, great. He said after the whole- you know- divorce he decided to hop on a plane and visit England, anyway make a long story short he meet someone and they are getting married." Emma says happily at knowing that Killian will get his own happily ever after too.

"Hmm, how'd be meet her?"

"On the plane, they sat next to each other. He said her name was Milah. He also said, and I quote, 'Emma I understand how you felt about Regina when you first saw her. It only took me a good 5 secs and I knew instantly that I wanted to be with her.' Sound familiar?" Emma says mockingly.

Regina plays along, "Hmm who would ever be crazy enough to fall in love a few seconds after they have meet?"

"Huh? I have no idea. Luckily we're not one of them." Emma says sarcastically and she kisses the brunette.

Regina nods in agreement and the couple continues to snuggle.

Emma looks at Regina, admiring the side profile of the brunette. Taking in every curve and crevice of her partner. Emma thinks back to the day they meet, the day that changed her life forever.

"C'mon we should get going Henry is coming over along with your sister and mother. And don't forget my parents too."

"Emma why did you insist we all have dinner together again? You know tonight is not going to be pretty." Regina says with a sigh.

Emma give Regina a soft kiss before the couple stands up and begins to walk towards their car with their hands entwined.

"Everything will be perfect. You'll see." The blonde says showing off a big smile.

Regina cannot but love the blonde, in all her optimism with regards to their families and the fact that Emma means the world to her.

Regina often thinks back to Emma's wedding day. How a simple job could lead to her finding the love of her life, Regina didn't know. All she was certain was that she adore the blonde, and could never imagine a life without her.

"Fine. But I drive." Regina says as she opens the drivers seat door, taking control as usual.

"I love you, Emma." Regina says softly a smile painting her lips.

"I love you too, Regina." Emma says smiling as she reaches into her pocket and touches a soft velvet box, knowing that in a few short hours she will ask Regina to be hers forever.
