Chapter 3.2

Six weeks later, Emma was back at Regina's house banging on the door. Regina finally opened it to a very angry, scared blonde who tried to push her way in again but Regina held her ground. "Not this time, every time I let you into my life you end up breaking my heart."

"We need to talk in private, it's important." Emma demanded, pulling Regina close to her.

"No," Regina's voice was low, barley above a whisper. "I don't have anything to say to you." Regina said pulling away and pushing Emma back.

"I have something very important to tell you," Emma whispered.

"I don't care what you have to say, stay away from me."

"I am pregnant." Emma said clutching Regina shoulder. Regina froze for a second, shook her head and then looked Emma in the eye.

"That sounds like a personal problem."

"You did this to me." Emma glared at the brunette. Emma grabbed Regina by the shoulders and pushed her back. Regina tried to fight the angry blonde off, but Emma's firm grip was making it impossible.

"Don't make me laugh. Have you lost your mind, you sound crazy."

"You did some weird spell mumbo jumbo and now I am going to have your baby." Emma took her hands away from the brunette and started pacing back and forth, running shaky hands through her hair.

"I did not." Regina rolled her eyes at the angry blonde.

"You're the only person I have been with." Emma starred into Regina's emotionless eyes. "I swear you are the only one." Regina paused, letting the words sink in.

"As in, anyone lately or anyone ever?" Regina eyed the frantic blonde suspiciously.

"Really you want to have that talk right now? I just told you I am pregnant, with your baby however the fuck you managed that. I think that is a little more important than how many people I have slept with. " Emma said in a low dangerous growl.

"I find it is a very valid question, seeing how you think I am your magic baby's daddy."

"This isn't funny." Emma hissed and folded her arms; she had stopped pacing, and glared, annoyed at Regina's blatant disregard for her feelings.

"Oh from where I am standing it's a little funny. It's not every day your gay high school sweetheart shows up at your door, saying that a one-night- stand lead to the conception of a magic baby. Emma I am woman, it's not even possible."

"Henry said you had magic, and that paper glowed when I touched it." Emma started to cry, her emotions had been all over the place ever since that night.

"Henry is a confused ten year old boy." Regina said wrapping the blonde in her arms. Holding her tight and trying her best to calm her nerves. "Emma, I am sorry, I didn't…" Emma looked up at her with red tear stained eyes. Regina could not remember a time she had ever seen Emma cry.

"Why can't you just be honest with me?"

"Emma this is ridiculous. There is no way that it's even possible, anymore."

"Anymore?"

"That's not what I meant; I mean we don't exactly have to right equipment to make a child." Regina said pulling away and looking to the floor.

"Why are you lying?" Her words were softer, the venom she had earlier accusation gone, and now all that remained was a scared vulnerable woman. In that moment Regina starred at Emma, She looks so delicate like something I need to protect. Emma delicate, never in my whole life would I have ever though that. Yet here she is, begging me for answers, I cannot give.

"Emma I don't know how this happen but I can honestly tell you it should not be possible. Come inside and sit down." Regina voice was shaky and her eyes were hiding something.

Emma followed the Regina inside; taking a set on the sofa she watched as the brunette paced back and forth. Emma had been trying for weeks to figure out how this could have possibly happened. At first, she though it was stress, having her best friend pass away and then having a fling with Regina, but one week turned into two, then three. Finally, she had to admit to herself, something was wrong with her body. She was a mess for several days fearing the absolute worst. She had stayed up late researching everything it could possibly be on the internet. By the time she went to the doctor, she was a mess of hormones. When the doctor told she was pregnant, she went into a panic attack. All Emma could think about was the little boy's words. Finally, she knew she had to confront Regina and by her pacing and jittery movements, she knew that Henry was on to something.

"Emma, have you told anyone but me?"

"No,"

"Ok, you are not going to like this but we need to call your mother."

"Regina that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard."

"You want answers, and I would love to give them to you, but I can't. Please believe me when I tell you this. Please just trust me; I am going to make a call."

Mary Margret came storming into Regina's house. Waving her hands wildly, heading straight for Regina. Mary did not even notice Emma sitting on the sofa. "How could you let this happen again?" Mary shoved Regina back and poked her chest. "I really can't believe you. You promised me, how could you do this to her. I thought… this should be impossible." The Pixie haired brunette yelled.

"It should have been impossible." Regina yelled back glaring at the older woman. "I gave everything up remember."

"Obviously not, you promised me you would stay away from her. She still has a chance and you are going end up taking it away from her. How can you be so selfish?" Mary Margret yelled.

"Wait a second." Emma jumped up snapping at her mother.

"Emma, I didn't see you." Pulling Regina by the arm, "We need to go have a talk." Mary tried to force Regina into the kitchen, but Emma stopped her and pulled both women back into the room.

"No. I want answers, and I want them now. I deserve an answer, this is my body." Emma demanded and Mary Margret flashed an angry glare at Regina, who shrugged her shoulders in responses to the pixie haired brunette.

"Maybe we should just tell her." Regina sighed, "You can't exactly explain a baby away."

"You know we can't, if you would have just stayed away. You are going to destroy her." Mary said shaking her head and refusing to look at Regina.

"What the hell is going on, and why the fuck does my mother know more about my own life than I do. Mom I can't believe you." Emma said collapsing down on the couch. "Nothing about this shit makes any sense."

"Emma the less you know, the better. I am your mother and trust me when I tell I only want what is best for you. How about we set up an appointment at the clinic and get your problem taken care of." Mary Margret pleaded with her daughter.

Regina snapped her head back looking at Mary. "You have to be fucken kidding. There is a life growing inside your daughter and you just want to extinguish it. You cannot be serious that is your solution. You don't think she at least has a right to know the truth, before you decide to kill it? You of all people I can't even believe those words came out of your mouth."

"We wouldn't have this problem if you could have kept it in your pants. This is what is best for her and everyone in evolved. Just because you decided…" Mary's words trailed off when she looked over to Emma. "This is the best solution period. It's the only way."

"She should at least have a choice like I did." Regina said getting within inches of Mary Margret's face. Mary pushed her back and the two brunettes started to bicker back and forth. Emma shot up and stepped in-between them.

"Hold on everyone, just stop fighting and tell me the fucken truth already. It obvious by the way you are both acting that you have both been hiding a ton of shit from me and I want answers. I deserve answers. Is everyone in this town into witchcraft or something?"

"No we're not, Emma your special…,"Regina started to say but Mary Margret stopped her by putting a hand on her mouth.

"You know what will happen, if you ever loved my daughter you will keep your mouth shut like you promised." Mary hissed into Regina's ear.

"It's not like I planned any of this this, she was acting like a woman possessed." Regina became quite for a second and then her face lit up as if she had an epiphany. Regina wiggled out of Mary's grasp. "This has my mother written all over it." Regina declared slumping down. Regina sat deep in though for a long time then look up at Mary.

"Your dead mother?" Emma asked, Regina just nodded.

"My mother must have…"Regina shook her head, started to cry and looked down at the floor. "This is clearly her work." Emma sat down next to her and looked Regina in the eyes. "Emma, I am so sorry," Regina, said choking back tears. "I wish I could tell you the truth but, I can't nether can or mother, or anyone else." Seeing Regina cry only made Emma angry. Everyone had been lying to her. Now she had a life growing magically growing inside of her. A life her mother wanted to end and forget about.

"So… this whole magic thing is a giant conspiracy. That no one can talk about it for my own good." Emma said throwing her hands up in the air. "Yet I am supposed to kill this baby because it's for my own good. Well maybe I don't want to."

"Honey it's not like that." Mary said rushing to her daughter's side.

"Then what is it like so far, the only person who has been honest with me is a ten year old kid." Emma sunk back on the sofa, and a revelation. "Regina, is Henry mine? He really is mine." Regina started to speak but Mary interrupted her.

"Not one word." Mary Margret shot Regina a warring look.

"It's true, the kids mine." Emma said shaking her head and running her hand through her hair.
Emma let out a sigh, opened her mouth to speak. Then snapped it shut, and gulped. She tried to speak, again but stopped. She looked over to Regina then started again; her words came out raspy, barely audible. "You never cheated on me." Regina reached out for Emma but she pushed her away. "I can't even believe you."

"I sorry Emma, I wanted you to still have a chance."

"A chance at what Regina?"

"Redemption." Regina cried, putting her hands up to her face.

"Redemption for what?"

"There has to be away to tell her, Mary we have to find a way." Regina said tears streaming down her face, staring up at the pixie haired brunette. "There has to be some way."

"The punishment was clear. We cannot interfere; if we do you know what will happen." Mary stated shaking her head.

"What about…"Regina words trailed off then she looked up at Mary, "Ruby."

"Ruby, she isn't bound by the same rules." Regina said pushing herself away from the enraged woman.

"No," Mary Margret said shaking her head.

"No she was your chosen champion; therefore your rule applies to her. Not the ones written by mother," Regina declared.

"If it was that simple don't you think I would have done that years ago," Mary shouted.

"Obviously you weren't smart enough to figure it out before." Regina stood up and snapped her fingers. Ruby appeared in the living room. Confused and a little disorientated.

"What am I doing here?" Ruby looked around at everyone.

"Emma is pregnant," Regina stated.

"Who is the father? Last time I checked she was only into women." Ruby asked confused.

"Me," Regina whispered.

"You, I thought you to hated each other. This is not good." Ruby said rubbing the back of her neck. "How is that even possible I mean last time I saw you two, you weren't even on speaking terms?"

"Can you please tell me what the fuck is going on," Emma yelling finally able to speak.

"Actually I am the only person on earth who can. It is about time you asked me. I have been waiting but no one figured it out until now. I couldn't say anything before, you had to be the one to ask me yourself." Ruby shrugged. "When I tell you this Emma it's going to blow your mind. You are a god, and technically, we all are." Ruby waved her hand at all the women. "Well except for Regina. She gave up her immortality." Before Ruby could finish Cora appeared.

"Looks like I finally won," Cora snorted looking at all the women.

"Actually," Ruby said then snapped her fingers and a glowing parchment appeared; it was made of the same magic paper Henry showed Emma. "Based on the law and the way the punishments are written, in sub section seven, paragraph three, The Winter Goddesses, Summer God, or the Royal Dark Blood cannot tell the Goddess of Love who she is. If they do the Goddess will be cast out of the heavens forever.

Later you amended it with Regina, when Regina and Emma fell in love, but you forgot about me." Ruby smirked at the woman.

"Emma asked me what was going on, not Regina, or Snow, therefor no rule was broken. Actually, I thought that Snow would have figured it out sooner. Looks like this little plan of yours back fired." Ruby said looking directly at Cora. "I assume you did something to trick them into making the baby. Thinking Regina would feel guilty and confess everything, after what she went through." Then Ruby snapped her finger and the magical document was gone.

"That was never my plan at all, since it is your job to enforce the rules while on earth, then you know what it says about a god creating a life here without permission from the Golden One." Cora said with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes, they are quite clear," Ruby, stated.

"Are you going to tell her?" Cora said smiling at Ruby.

"Emma has to ask." Regina whispered.

"Ask what." Emma said to Regina who just shrugged and looked down at the floor. Then Emma looked at Snow who had tears in her eyes.

"Ok, fine Ruby what do the rule say about me having a baby." Emma demanded.

"The rules state you can't keep a child born of this world, if you do then you give up…"Ruby looked at Regina, "your place in the heavens forever."

"Do you really think the Goddess of love will be able to kill the unborn child growing inside of her?" Cora glared at Emma, and then vanished.

"Ruby, can I ask you anything and you will tell me the truth."

"Yes." Ruby said sitting down by Emma.

"I am the goddess of love right." Emma looked over to Ruby.

"Yes."

"If that's the case why am I on the earth?" Emma asked confused.

"You're being punished."
