Work Text:
Zelena smiles smugly, staring at the screen in front of her. Then there is a commotion at the door downstairs and a few moments later Emma bursts into her room.
"Zelena, when you asked me to show you how to hack into someone's twitter account 'this'", she screeches, waving her phone in front of her, " was what you were planning to do?!"
Zelena just shrugs nonchalantly.
"It was painful to watch you two idiots dancing around each other. I just planted a nice little image in Regina's head to think about. You can thank me later, Savior."
Emma just gapes at her.
Regina, upon hearing Emma's loud voice from the top floor, decides to have a look at what caused it (though given the direction of the sound she has a pretty good idea with whom Emma is arguing).
Besides, she feels the need to clear the air between them as she really didn't post that tweet about wanting to kiss the blonde. Not that she hasn't thought about it before, mind you, but reading those words written out in front of her, for everybody to see…
Well, let's just say that the image in her head is very vivid now.
Before she makes it up the stairs though the voices turn to silence. And somehow this is even more alarming, considering that her sister is involved.
Regina’s steps speed up and she’s panting when she reaches Zelena's door. She takes in Emma's dumbfounded expression and Zelena's smug grin, squeezes Emma's shoulder to check up on her (when the blonde turns her head towards her she's a little bit relieved that at least Zelena didn't stun her) and then presses forward towards Zelena, her eyes ablaze.
"What did you do to her?"
"Nothing," her smirk widens" "I did absolutely nothing to your little sheriff, but maybe you should, little sister?" Her eyebrow rises in a mocking question.
Regina is actually blushing.
She clears her throat before turning to Emma again.
"Emma, are you alright?"
Emma nods slowly.
"Can we talk for a moment?" After throwing a gleaming glare at her sister's gleeful expression, she adds, "Downstairs."
Emma nods again as she still hasn't found her voice and follows Regina down the stairs.
When they enter her study she shuts the door behind them with a sigh of relief. Emma is standing in the middle of the room, feeling lost and overwhelmed. Regina gently guides her towards one of the couches and pushes down on her shoulders.
"Take a sit."
She chooses the opposite couch for herself to sit down on and slowly starts speaking.
"Do you want to talk about what just happened there?"
Emma shakes her head.
"Another topic then. About that tweet... I suppose you saw it?"
She looks expectantly at Emma.
Emma looks at her, her eyes suddenly very wide with panic.
Regina swallows, feeling hurt that this would be Emma's reaction to the implication of her kissing her.
"You need to know, I would never post something like that. It's ridiculous." She adds with a strained laugh.
Now there is a hurt look on Emma's face.
"You think it's ridiculous to want to kiss me?"
She asks, hardly audible.
"Yes! No! Wait, what? I said I'd never post something like that. I didn't say that it would be ridiculous to want to kiss you..."
Emma's face is full of confusion and a bit of hope.
"So you would like to kiss me?"
Regina sighs. How did she end up here again?
Emma continues, looking her in the eye now.
"Because, you know, I wouldn't be opposed to that." She blushes slightly at those words.
Wait, rewind, what now?! Regina's head is spinning.
"You wouldn't?" she asks reverently.
Emma shakes her head.
"Have you thought about it before?"
Emma nods, her blush intensifying.
"For how long?"
Zelena bursts into the study, because of course she does.
"For fucks sake, stop with the stupid questions and kiss already, will you?!"
And so they do, but not before shutting the door in Zelena’s face.
