Months later...

If you asked Regina or Emma, they'd both say that things were going pretty well. The two of them were inseparable. Every moment spent together was like heaven, and every moment spent apart was hell.

Regina was incredibly proud of Emma, for she enrolled into the community college and was doing exceptionally well. While Regina wanted to spoil and coddle Emma as much as possible, Emma wanted independence. She wanted to prove that she could take care of herself. They both decided on accelerated classes while Emma prepared for the police academy with the local sheriff, sheriff Graham.

Regina was surprised when Emma decided to go into law enforcement. She questioned Emma's decision until she received a strong speech about helping people who can not help themselves and making a difference.

Things were going well for Regina as well, she was happier than she's ever been in her whole entire life. She loved Emma, and couldn't imagine life without her. She was sure to remind her of that every single day. Her relationship with Cora improved as well. While they were not the best of friends, they were slowing building a mother-daughter relationship respectively.

Cora learned that the key to Regina's heart was Emma.

"Emma, I need your help" Cora announced as she spotted Emma completing her homework inside Grannies one afternoon.

"The last time I helped you, you got me in trouble" Emma explained not looking up.

"I promise it's harmless dear" Cora stated as she took a seat. "I just bought this new computer and I wanted you to help me work this...thing"

Emma sighs. She knows she won't be getting any studying done with Cora Mills in her face wanting attention. Might as well get this over with. She closed her book and pushed it aside before regarding Cora. "How may I help"

"Well, as you know, I've been single for a while now" Cora starts and Emma almost gags. She does not want to have this conversation with Cora. Ever. "I want you to help me find someone on that Chrislist thing you and Regina met on"

"It's Craigslist" Emma corrects.

Cora waves her off because...technicalities. "I think I've spotted a really good one...read this and let me know what you think" Cora instructs while pushing the now opened laptop in front of Emma.

"Kay" Emma responds pulling the laptop closer. She sees the ad Cora pulled up and begins to read it. She will never admit that she's kind of curious as to what kind of guys Cora's into and afraid to find out at the same time. The first line reads;

"Emma"

That's strange. She glances up at Cora whose urging her to keep reading.

"I know that we've only known each other for half a year, but this has been the best 6 months of my life.

The first time I saw you, I knew you were special.

You are so beautiful.

Both inside and out.

Words can not express how happy you make me or how much you mean to me.

You know that I love you, and I will remind you that I do, every morning and every night hopefully until death do us part.

I say all of this, only to ask this question.

Emma, will you make me the happiest woman on earth and agree to Marry me?

I'd be honored to call you my wife. I couldn't imagine life without you. You're my rock and I promise that I will treat you with nothing but the respect and kindness you deserve.

I promise to never allow you to wonder whether you are loved (You are)

Or wanted (you are)

I love every part of you, from those beautiful green eyes of yours to that yellow punch buggy.

So again, Miss Swan, my princess, will you marry me?

Emma didn't realize she was crying until the last sentence. She was not expecting this. She loved Regina more than anything, and anyone. Did she want to spend the rest of her life with her?

Heck yeah.

Emma looked up at Cora who smiled in return. Cora knew. Cora was in on it. The woman who was furious to find out that her daughter wanted to date a girl was now helping her daughter proposed to that very same girl. Boy, have they come a long way? Emma looked around and her heart ached that Regina was nowhere in site. She realized that she had no idea where her girlfriend was at the moment. She had to see Regina...soon.

Emma pulled out her phone and dialed Regina's number. As usual, the call was answered on the first ring.

"Hello"

"Hi" Emma found herself sobbing from happiness.

"Emma, are you okay?"

"Yes, Regina. I'm calling to answer your Craigslist ad"

"You are?" She questioned immediately.

"Yes. The answers yes"

The line goes dead. Emma's confused and sad for a split second before she hears her name.

"Emma"

It's Regina. Emma turns and regards her girlfriend. She doesn't wait another second before running up to Regina and throwing her arms around her neck in a tight embrace. "Yes I will marry you" Emma repeats.

The dinner erupts with a wave of cheers.

Funny how a simple Craigslist ad can change your life forever.

THE END :(

The Story is over. :'(
