The next day came faster than they expected. Emma's phone started beeping but she ignored it sleepily. She felt exhausted... this case was taking the best of her. She felt like she was both physically and mentally tired for the first time in forever. Regina twisted on the bed and and knitted her eyes in great discomfort.
"Are you awake?"
Emma murmured half asleep and twisted on her side. Regina just moaned and got out of the bed dizzily. The very next moment she was in the bathroom hugging the toilet while throwing up violently. She coughed annoyed as she barfed and wiped her mouth with a piece of toilet paper. Her head was spinning...
She leaned her head on the toilet seat and groaned. Emma followed her inside the bathroom and kneeled down on the floor rubbing her back.
"You're probably still jet lagged."
"Jet lag is not about throwing up Emma..."
She huffed out of breath and stood up slowly holding Emma's shoulder for support.
"Food poisoning?"
"How the hell can I know? I'm not a doctor."
Regina replied pretty irritated and tacked her hair behind her ears. She took a deep breath and put on a slim satin purple dress. Emma couldn't help but stare... even though the mayor was sick she wouldn't allow herself to look untidily.
"Are you in the mood for breakfast?"
Emma asked her in wary not leaving Regina's eyes for a second. The queen didn't seem like she was in a good morning today. She was definitely moody and tired. That meant that Emma had to be extra careful with what she said.
"I could use a cup of black coffee."
The former mayor admitted and put a pair of black heels and balanced on them with great easement.
Emma threw a sloppy buttoned up shirt and a pair of blue jean shorts and grabbed the room card.
"I guess we are ready to go then."
Regina nodded her head and walked out of the room looking white as a piece of paper. Both women walked downstairs inside the dinning room and sat down on a table. Regina served herself a cup of black coffee, and a couple of brownies. She played with her food thought... she wasn't in the mood to eat. Her stomach wouldn't appreciate it that much.
Emma from the other side was really glad to have a big variety of food to eat. She grabbed a plate that fitted two French toasts, a couple of croissants and piece of cake as well. She had been always a foodie person.
She followed Regina on the table who was pretty focus on a fashion magazine.
"I'm still waiting for the police to let me know about any possible evidence in the gardens."
"Oh yeah? Why didn't you go look yourself?"
Regina asked not raising her sight at all.
"What do you mean?"
"You know how sloppy local police officers can be. After all they have no idea what's going on in our case."
"Actually... Michael informed them about everything. He had no choice.. people were getting scared and worried... he had to tell the police in order to calm down the terrified mob."
Regina rolled her eyes and held her head inside her arms.
"You could have investigated the gardens on your own though."
She mentioned criticizing the blond woman and focused back on the magazine she was reading.
"Regina you were missing and I had to deal with multiple quests on my own yesterday! I can't be in several places at once!"
Regina rolled her eyes for once again and stood up still holding her cup of coffee.
"I could use some tan. Meet me in the pool whenever you finish eating that humongous breakfast."
She finished her phrase and walked away shaking her hips. Emma held her forehead annoyed.. last night she was holding a crying Regina in her arms while she was trying to soothe the pain and today Regina treated her like a piece of garbage.
