Regina's Pov
I woke up and looked around, it took me a couple seconds to realize where I was and why and when my memories of last night came flooding back I couldn't help but smile. I looked around once more to find that Emma was gone, I got out of the bed and saw Emma's closet, I didn't have any clothes so I went to see what she had.
I looked and found a large t-shirt and put it on and started making my way down the hallway but it was a bit difficult considering I was very sore from last night. As I hit the end of the hallway from Emma's room a delicious smell wafted around me,
I started to follow the smell to the kitchen, to find Emma surrounded by breakfast foods behind the stove making more foods. "Wow I didn't know you were a master chef" I say going behind her and wrapping my hands around her waist.
"It's all for you baby" she says turning around and wrapping her arms around my waist.
"You look hot in my t-shirts" She states, making me laugh.
"Do I?" I say, grabbing a piece of bacon, tasting it and couldn't help but moan. "This is so.. Good" I groan out. "
You make me want to take you right here right now" She says, making me grin.
"What's stopping you Miss.Swan?" I ask and In a blink of an eye my bacon was out of my hand and I was against the wall, I gasped out in surprise at the show of inhuman speed. I wasn't expecting that.
"Don't tease me Mills, we both know you can't handle another round with me" She says.
"You have no idea what I'm capable of" I say closing the space between us. Emma's soft lips pressing against mine felt like a dream becoming reality, Emma lifts me up and I wrap my legs around her waist. But then Emma pulled away.
"Now since you think it's funny to tease I think it's only fair I tease you back" Emma says sitting me down on the floor and going to turn off the oven, while pulling out pastry's .
out of the oven.
"Oh! You can not leave me like this, you must be out of your damn mind" I say standing where she sat me with my hands on my hips.
"For you" She says making me roll my eyes.

Emma's Pov
It's been one whole year since Regina and I first started dating, and I've been planning our anniversary for the last two weeks. I don't know how I even got the time because Regina and I have been pretty busy since the finishing of the hotel, and speaking of there is going to be an opening tonight me and Regina must attend because she's the owner and I'm the money manager and designer. I grabbed my phone and hit the contact name listed as My Sexy Queen. It rang for about five seconds before she picked up.
R: Hey baby.
E: Hey I have a question.
R: I'm all ears.
E: What color are you wearing to the party tonight?
R: My favorite color.
E: What shade?
R: Dark.
E: Ok thanks.
R: No problem.
E: How was your morning? I know I didn't come in today cause I went to help with the finishing touches for the party making sure it was just how you liked it.
R: Quite boring since you were at the hotel but I got a lot of work done so that's good oh and I got through a 2hr long meeting, you should've seen Karen's outfit it was horrendous.
E: hahaha.. Be nice.
R:Ok..... Well it's already hitting five thirty and I have to look sexy for my handsome king.
E: Ohhh..... I wonder who that might be.. Haha
R: Bye Emma I need to get ready, love you.
E: Ok love you to bye.
R: Oh and Emma don't pick me up. I will meet you there.
End of call
After Regina hung up I went into my closet and found my dark red suit, and it looks like the color of blood. I hopped into the shower for about 15mins, then hopped out the shower brushed my teeth, washed my face, lotioned up and fixed my hair into a tight ponytail in the back.
Once I got finished with all of that I went to put on my suit, I put on my black dress shoes and a Channel watch. I grabbed my wallet that had a picture of me and Regina in the Bahamas last spring break and I was out the door.
I made it to the hotel at around 7:30 and there were already a lot of people here. I walked in and immediately saw Regina's parents and my parents talking but it seemed they were doing more of arguing. I walked over trying to see if Regina was anywhere nearby but no luck. "Good evening Mr & Mrs.Mills" I say greeting them.
"Hello Emma." Replied Henry Regina's father.
"Good Evening Mom and Dad."
"Hey Honey", my mom says with a tight smile.
"So what were you guys arguing about?" I asked looking at all four of them, "Nothing" they all say in unison.
"They were betting on who was going to pop the question" Zelena says coming out of nowhere.
"And I placed my bet as you Emma so don't disappoint me," Zelena says.
"Really" I say looking at all of them "You guys act like children sometimes" I say but honestly I can't talk if it were up to Regina I would probably be the most childish adult alive and I don't blame her.
As soon as it hit eight O'clock the lights in the ballroom died down and the spotlight came on the double doors. "What is going on?" I asked our parents but they looked just as confused as I did. The doors came open and what came through almost made me drop dead.
Regina walked through with a deep V dark red dress that had a u cut stopping just above her hip bone, a slit starting in the middle of her thigh on her right leg going all the way down and her hair was straightened not one single hair was out of place she had on red and back eyeshadow and dark red lipstick that made you think she drank someone's blood and left the evidence right there for everyone to see.
I could hear the gasp as everyone saw her walk through the doors and I couldn't help but laugh because well that was Regina, she knew how to make an entrance.
"Good evening everyone, you guys don't know how thankful and happy I am that you all came out here tonight to enjoy something me and my partner Emma have been working on for quite some time, Emma my love do you mind coming out here dear?" She says causing a spotlight to shine on me as I made my way through the crowd.
I was handed a microphone by one of the camera men that were recording, "Yes me and this beautiful woman in front of me have been working hard for the past year to make something not only for the adults to enjoy but for everyone of all ages to enjoy."
I say connecting me and Regina's hand "Yes so we are very glad to present The Dark Palace Hotel." me and Regina say in unison, and everyone goes wild with clapping and screaming.
I leaned down and pecked Regina on the lips and she smiled. "Are you trying to kill me tonight woman?" I asked.
"No not yet of course" she says, smirking.
"Now with further a do the party is now officially started" Regina says before capturing my lips once more. Music started blaring through the speakers and everyone started dancing and having fun.
"You couldn't wait to attempt to kill me in that dress could you?" I asked her while spinning her around with my hand moving to the beat of the music.
"Well I had to try," she says, pecking me on the lips.
I was nervous I had something big planned and this could either go great or very, very horrible, I knew what song was coming on next "Do you know how to tango?" I asked already knowing the answer.
"Of course I do after all the teaching my mother made me go through as a child , but you already knew this so why are you asking me?" She asked, cocking her head to the side.
"Because that's what we're doing next" I say, dragging her out on the floor.
The beat started playing me and Regina's bodies started moving in sync as if we were one with eachother, people started to make a large circle around us watching us as we moved our feet and hips no one else just me and Regina on the floor and it felt like a dream.
I spun Regina out and I heard her say catch me as she went out, I got in my stance and as she lept in the air I caught her as she was in a split position it was an incredibly hard move.
I spinned around slowly as if she was on display doing it faster but transitioning to the ground, as soon as her feet hit the ground our feet started moving at a faster pace me and Regina never breaking eye contact.
The end was coming closer and closer. "Are you ready?" I whisper And she nods, I spin her out and Regina continues to spin and spin as I walk slowly around her, her hands going up as if she was a ballerina and I knew that was my cue.
I grab my rose and put it in my hand. I stopped walking and held out one hand but Regina didn't come not yet in fact she started to speed up her spin to the point where you only saw flashes of red, the she came spinning back towards me , and once my hand touched hers I immediately transitioned her into a dipping position with the rose in my mouth.
Everyone was cheering but all that noise drowned out when I looked in her eyes, we were both heaving and that's all I could hear was our breaths blowing against each other lips and I dropped the rose out of my mouth and kissed her in front of hundreds of people but who cares, I'm in love with this woman and nothing will ever change that.
"Uh!!... Emma." someone says loudly over the microphone causing me and Regina to break apart from our very intimate kiss. "Yeah hello we're still here" Zelena says on the microphone.
"Emma don't you have a few words to say I suggest you do it before it gets, nevermind" She says handing me the mic, "Right... um.. Yeah I have a few things to say but it's something you probably weren't expecting" I say getting Regina's attention as she finished reapplying her lipstick.
"Regina I know we've only been together a year, a year but it feels like it's been so much longer than that. It's like I know every part of you and you do me and I feel that my love for you is much stronger than my ego" I say seeing Regina tear but laugh at the joke just as everyone else.
"But I love you and I always will so I'm gonna ask you something but you have to promise my charming ego will still be intact no matter the outcome" I say moving towards her across the room.
"I promise." she says trying to wipe her tears.
Once I reach her, I sit the mic down make sure to turn it off and I go down on one knee and pull out a box opening it, "Regina Maria Mills you make me the happiest woman on earth by marrying your biggest human child?" I ask tearing up, and I could see every emotion going through her mind as my heart thumped, threatening to break though my chest.
"Yes you big buffoon" She says crying "Of course I will marry you." she says as I put the gold ring on her finger it was encrusted with one ruby in the middle and three diamonds surrounding it in a triangle shape.
Once I finished I got on my feet and kissed her like there was no tomorrow, her arm wrapped around my neck pulling me deeper, and everyone around us cheered. I could feel the flashes of the camera. I pulled away from Regina seeing that she was still crying.
"Why are you still crying?" I asked hoping she could hear me over all the noise "Because you are my one and only true love" She says kissing me on the lips before pulling apart again.
