Another Pregnant Regina Mills fic. Ignoring the whole Dragon Hood baby spectacle, Regina finds herself pregnant with Robin Hood's baby several months after he has left Storybrooke with no sign of return. As she searches for answers as to why her infertility potion's magic is reversed, her connection to Emma Swan becomes clearer to the both of them. Swan Queen endgame.


Regina Mills stared at the stick for a long time because she couldn't believe her eyes and then her knees weakened at the sight. She had to sit down on the toilet. Really? Is this really happening to her? Questions raced through her mind. She resisted the urge to pinch herself, because she knew this was real, that this was actually happening. She put down the pregnancy test down on the bathroom counter and sat down. What the hell is going on? She remembers clearly taking the infertility potion in front of her mother, remembers clearly the pain of inside of her as the magic began to take effect. Did that not happen? She only had more questions. Regina glanced at the pregnancy test one more time. Still positive.

When she and Robin were together, Regina never thought to use protection because of the potion she had drank in front of her mother in the Enchanted Forest. She told him as such and he agreed there was no need for protection. What had she missed? She remembers the look of shock on her mother's face at what she had done. Looking back, she herself can't believe at what she had done but that is a memory, not a bad dream. The Evil Queen was one horrifically wounded woman. Regina tried to think of different scenarios, different reasons as to why this is happening to her. She tried to rationalize it in her mind while she focused on not having a panic attack.

What was she going to tell people? Her son? Emma?

She sighed at that thought, thinking of how far they have come. This will definitely change the dynamics of their friendship. She considers the blonde woman as her friend, a friend who she realized that she feels an intense attraction towards despite everything they had been through. It had been something that has been developing the several years Emma Swan has been in Storybrooke. It never occurred to her that Emma could feel the same way. Now, it appears that the attraction goes both ways. There had been a short kiss over two weeks ago that they have yet to discuss. As soon as it happened, it stopped. Emma backed off, apologized and left the living room. They had been watching a movie after Henry had gone to bed; it had been his idea to have Emma over for dinner that evening. She didn't dismiss the idea because Regina had begun to consider the blonde woman as a close friend. Emma came back into the room a few minutes later and informed her that she was going home for the night. Regina was really too shocked over what had transpired moments before, nodded and waved.

That had happened a while ago. Regina sighed heavily, looking at the pregnancy test again, nothing will be the same. Will Emma be angry at her? Regina thought on that for a moment then shook her head. Probably not, the only thing that Regina is afraid of about telling Emma is seeing the disappointment in her eyes. After Robin left with Marian and Roland, Regina spiraled into a state of depression, angry at the world for taking her happy ending away once again. She was angry at the world and Emma Swan. She spent long hours thinking about how to hurt the blonde woman in every way possible but it was that very same woman who came by her house one day and then never left her side after that. Emma became her friend, not that she let it happen willingly. She cursed her name, yelling at the younger woman to leave her alone before she ruins her life again. Regina was horrible to her in those first days but Emma never gave up on her and then one day, the brunette just accepted Emma as part of her life. She didn't have that many close friends to begin with and Emma was offering her friendship willingly. The blonde would spend most of her free time with Regina, doing various activities with her. Emma introduced Regina to Netflix and they started watching some tv shows (she will admit, that's her favourite thing to do with the younger woman).

Regina began to work on herself, on letting go of Robin Hood. Emma made her believe in the possibility of a happy future, they talked for hours what that might look like. It hurt to think of him, and she would spend hours thinking about what he's doing at that very moment. Those are the moments she'll space out. Emma helps by bringing her back to the present. She slowly began to open up to the idea of a happy ending.

Her relationship with Henry continued to flourish. Slowly, Regina's world began to rebuild. It was all in thanks to Emma Swan. There had been long awkward silences where they sat staring at each other. Emma let Regina vent, and she gave her a safe space to talk about her past. They talked a lot about happy endings.

Then there were lingering touches, and longing stares, all innocent gestures hidden from Henry's eyes until the tension reached its peak two weeks ago. She remembers the kiss so well, and thinks about it constantly. It hasn't prevented them from spending time together as a family, if anything she looks forward to spending time with Emma and their son. They haven't taken the time to talk about it because they both knew neither of them were ready to jump into a relationship. Emma and Hook had just broken up.

It was a possibility, but now she knew it might not be after today. First things first, she needs to make a doctor's appointment to check on her unborn child. A thrill ran up her spine at that thought; a burst of joy radiating within her. She never thought that she would be experiencing something like this and it made her happy and guilty at the same time. Regina first noticed something was wrong when she started feeling tired all the time, and then she couldn't remember when she had her period last. She has a period that is naturally irregular in its cycle but it didn't occur to her at first to take a pregnancy test. Then her breasts started feeling tender and now her worst fear is confirmed in front of her.

The front door slammed, shaking her from her contemplation, "One day at a time, Regina Mills." She mumbled to herself as she stood and went to her son.
