Here's the second chapter hope you like it!

Regina P.O.V.

   I woke up to an empty bed just like the past two months. I miss Emma like crazy, I miss her embrace, her smell, her kisses... God how could I be so stupid! I got up and got ready for the day. Once I'm ready I headed donwstairs to find Henry awake and dressed in the living room. Well thats weird, Henry awake AND dressed on school break?
   "Good morning, honey!"
   "Morning mom! Can we go to granny's for breakfast? Please!"
   "I suppose we can." I said and Henry got up excited and ran to the door. I couldn't help but chuckle at my son's cuteness. He sure has taken that after his blonde mom. My smile fell at the thought of the blonde. Once we were in the car Hendy asked something that I wasn't sure how to answer.
   "What happened between you and ma? You don't have to answer, its just... she has been so off since you two broke up and I asked her why and she said she did something that upset you and that's why you two broke up." Henry said and I wasn't expecting this. Emma's saying that's her fault? Why?
   "She said that?"
   "Yeah..." Henry said and we keep quiet the rest of the ride. When we got to granny's I parked and we entered the restaurant. With her back facing the door I saw the women I love and hurt so much sitting on a booth.
   "Hey there's ma! Can I go say hi?"
   "Of course you can, I'll go order our food" I said and he nodded.
   "Hi Ruby."
   "Good morning Madam Mayor, what can I get you?"she asked coldly and I frowned.
   "The usual please, and Henry's usual as well." She nodded and went to the kitchen. I looked over to where Emma and Henry were and I can't help but think that I could be over there sitting with them as a family. My thoughts were interrupted by Ruby's voice.
   "You really hurt her you know?"
   "I know..." I said and looked at Ruby.
   "Why would you do it? She thinks you did it because of something she did." Ruby said and I can only remember what Henry said to me in the car.
   "It's not her fault I dont know why she thinks that, I honestly don't know why it happened... I was drunk, mad at Emma, we had a fight I don't even remember what the fight was about," the memories of that day are pretty foggy "and Mulan gave me a ride home and it just happened" I said and felt tears in my cheeks.
   "You're really sorry, aren't you?" Ruby asked.
   "Yeah... if I could just take back what I did I would, but now I don't think Emma will ever forgive me and I just miss her so much."
   "You should talk to her" I laughed a little.
   "Don't you think I've tried? She won't talk to me"
   "Try harder, she's depressed. She says she's okay but I know she isn't. I think she's seeing Archie. Look I'm really mad at you because you hurt my best friend," she sigh "but I know that if anyone can make Emma happy again it's you, so if you promise not to hurt her again I'm willing to help you." I looked at Ruby and I might not be a human lie detector like Emma but I'm pretty sure she was saying the truth. As I was about to answer her, Henry came to me.
   "Hey mom, come sit with us"
   "I don't think thats a good ideia, I don't want to upset your mom." I said looking down.
   "She's the one who invited you mom!" Henry said cheerful.
   "Really?" I asked hopeful.
   "Yeah! Come on, pleaseee"
   "Okay... I'll just wait for our food and then I'll join you."
   "Good! I'm just going to the bathroom first." He said and I nodded.
   "I told you, you're the one who can make her happy again."Ruby said and handed me the food. I looked at her and smiled.
   "Thank you... for the talk" I said and stood up and walk to the booth where Emma was, Henry wasn't back yet so I sat across from Emma.
   "Hi." I looked up and saw Emma looking at me, Ruby was right her eyes don't have the happiness that I use to see in them.
   "Hi..." she was about to say something when her phone buzzed.
   "Its Henry... he says that Snow ask him to watch Neal for a bit and he didn't had the heart to say no." She said and start getting up.
   "Where are you going?" I asked sadly.
   "Well Henry's not here so I'm going to work." She said putting the money on the table.
   "You still need to eat..."
   "Look Regina, I asked Henry to call you here because he wanted to have breakfast with me but didn't want to leave you."
   "Was that the only reason?" I asked, my voice cracking. She didn't answer and started to leave. I couldn't take it anymore, I left after her and run so I could catch up with her.
   "Emma!" She didn't answer "Emma!"
She stopped walking and turn to face me.
   "What!?"
   "Can we talk... please?" I begged. She looked at me for a moment before open the door of her bug.
   "Get in." She said while getting in the but herself. I frowned but did as told. When I was on the bug she speed up down the street.
   "Where are we going?" I asked looking at her. When I got no answer I looked out of the window trying to figure our destination.
