*Emma's POV**Time Lapse*
Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me
But bear this in mind, it was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me...

I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You've never loved your stomach or your thighs, the dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine
But I'll love them endlessly

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if I do
It's you
Oh it's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You can't go to bed without a cup of tea
And maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep
And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me

I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape
You never want to know how much you weigh, you still have to squeeze into your jeans
But you're perfect to me

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you
And you'll never treat yourself right darlin' but I want you to
If I let you know I'm here for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you, oh

I've just let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
'Cause it's you
Oh it's you
It's you they add up to
And I'm in love with you
And all these little things

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all your little things."
I finished the song and smiled as I set my guitar down. "Okay guys. So, Cara's going to join me now and she's going to tell you the winner she picked to come spend a week with us." I said with a smile as Cara left the camera on a tripod and came to sit beside me. "Hey guys!" She said excitedly. I smiled. "Okay. So, after reading all of the letters you guys sent to Emma, I was able to pick a winner. I don't want anyone who didn't win to be upset by the fact you didn't win. I had no input from Emma on this winner. And Emma doesn't even know who I picked." She said and smiled. I laughed a little, my anxiety building. "So, the winner," she said and I looked away.

*Regina's POV*
"So, the winner," Cara said and Emma looked away. Cara smiled brightly. "Regina Mills." She said and a huge smile spread on Emma's lips. My jaw dropped as I ripped my headphones from my ears. Belle and Ruby looked at me and raised their eyebrows. I felt my heart hammering against my chest. I got up and grabbed my bookbag, then walked out of the library. It's almost 6 o'clock. I had therapy. I got outside in the cold air and I couldn't stop my smile. Holy shit. "Regina? What happened?" Belle asked as her and Ruby walked out. I smiled even bigger and my tears fell. But they were tears of joy. "I won." I managed out, then couldn't stop the flow of my tears. Their eyes were wide. "Holy shit! Regina! You fucking won!" Ruby screamed. I nodded excitedly and felt the small white flakes, falling from the clouds, start to gather on my face. "Come on. Let's go back to my house." I said. They nodded and we walked to Ruby's mustang. We got in and she drove to my house and I could still feel my excitement. We got to my house and she parked in my driveway. We went inside and mom was in the kitchen. "Mom!" I said excitedly. She smiled. "You heard?" She asked. I furrowed my eyebrows. "Your school is going to be closed for the next two weeks for staff development and expected bad weather." She said. I smiled. "That's awesome." I said. She nodded. "But mom! I won a contest! I get to go to LA to spend a week with Emma Swan! Emma freaking Swan!" I shouted. She smiled a little. "Honey, that's great.. But.. Regina.. Los Angeles? That's way too far. Do you know how much a plane ticket would be? I'm sorry honey." She said. I felt my excitement flee and sadness creep into my being. "No." I mumbled softly. "No.?" Mom said. I sighed. "I just.. I hoped this would be different. I wanted so so bad for you to let me go and meet the one person keeping me alive. But no. It's okay. I'm used to this." I said and took a step backwards. I turned around and pushed between Belle and Ruby. I felt my tears falling as I ran up the stairs and to my room. I locked myself in my room and threw myself onto my bed. My tears fell in a constant stream. Of course. I'll never meet Emma. I grabbed my phone and opened Twitter, seeing a dm from Emma. My tears fell harder as I opened it.
Hey Regina! Just wanted to start making plans for your visit :)
I'm sorry.. But I can't visit.
What? Why not??
My mom.. We can't afford it. She says it's too expensive.
Oh! Okay. Don't worry about it. I was already planning on buying the ticket.
Really?
Yeah. It was my competition.
Okay..
So, when do you wanna come?
Well... I have the next two weeks off of school.. But you're probably busy.
Nope! That'd be perfect!
Okay :)
I'll book a flight for you and send you the info.
Alright. I'm so excited!
Me too. Cara and I can't wait to meet you.
I can't wait to meet you!
:)

I smiled at her last message and got up. I grabbed a duffle bag and started packing. I packed everything I might need for a week in Los Angeles. I smiled and set my duffle at the end of my bed. I grabbed a bookbag and put my MacBook Pro, charger, headphones, a notebook and pens in it. Then, I set it beside my duffle. I smiled and checked the time. 8:45 already? I checked my phone and saw I had a dm from Emma.
Alright. So, I booked you a flight for tomorrow night. It leaves at 4:15. It's a 5 and a half hour flight. So, you'll get here at 9:15 your time, but 6:15 our time. Does this work for you?
Yes!
Awesome! Your flight leaves from the Storybrooke airport and you'll be picked up from LAX. I honestly can't wait to meet you :)
Same for you!
Okay :) get some rest! You have a long day ahead of you tomorrow.
Lol. Okay! I'll see you soon!
:)

I set my phone down and couldn't help the smile on my face. In less than 24 hours, I'm meeting the love of my life. I squealed at the thought, then another popped into my mind. My mother. There's no way she'll let me go. I sighed and got up. I grabbed my wallet and saw I had several hundred dollars. I smiled and put my wallet in my bookbag. I'll just have to hide this from my mom. I laid down in my bed and could hardly sleep. After school tomorrow, I'll come straight here, get my stuff, then go to the airport. I'll have to keep this from everyone if I want to be able to go.

I ran home from school and ran in the door. Mom isn't home. I told Belle and Ruby I had plans. I'll tell them all later. But after I'm in LA. I threw my phone charger in my bookbag, then quickly changed clothes. I put on skinny jeans, Vans, a white t-shirt and a black leather jacket. I smiled and grabbed my bags, then rushed downstairs. I opened the door to be met by Ruby. I sighed. It's almost 3:15. I have to get to the airport early to get everything done. She smiled. "Get in." She said. "I-I can't.." I said. She laughed. "I'm giving you a ride to the airport. But don't tell Belle." She said. I smiled and we both got in her car. She drove to the airport and walked me to the main desk. "Hey.. A flight was booked for me to LAX." I said. The lady smiled. "Right. Ms. Swan booked you first class. I hope you enjoy your trip Ms. Mills." She said. I smiled as she handed me my boarding pass and ticket. Ruby and I walked to security. "Okay kid. Be safe. Have fun on your trip. And don't fall too madly in love with her. I'll miss you." Ruby said and hugged me. I chuckled. "I'll see you in a week." I said. She nodded and I went through security. I went to baggage and they took my duffle. Then, it was time to board. I smiled and went to the gate. The flight boarded and I got a window seat. I smiled and put my bookbag in the seat beside me. I got out my headphones and iPod and started listening to Emma's songs. Sing To Me started playing and I smiled.

I woke up and looked out the window. I saw the sun shining still and I furrowed my eyebrows. I looked at my phone and it said 6 o'clock. I looked back out the window and saw that the plane was landing. I smiled and took my headphones out. In just a few minutes, I'll be meeting my idol. Holy fucking shit. I smiled as the plane landed and the pilot announced that we had arrived. I grabbed my bag as everyone got off the plane and went to the gate. I went to baggage claim and waited for a few minutes, then my bag finally came out. I smiled and grabbed my bag, then looked around. This airport is amazing. Then, a glimpse of blonde hair caught my eye. I looked at her harder and then smiled. It's her. She smiled and started walking over to me. Cara came next and I couldn't help my smile. "Regina!" Emma said and smiled. I nodded and felt tears building in my eyes. Cara took my duffle from me and I smiled again. "Thanks." I said. She smiled and nodded. "I.. It's really you.. I can't believe it." I stuttered out. Emma smiled and nodded. "I'm finally meeting you." I said and tears made their descent down my cheeks. She pulled me into her arms and I couldn't stop my tears. They're a mix of happiness and sadness. "Shh. Don't cry. I've got you." She whispered and held onto me tight. I feel so safe in her arms. After a very long hug, I pulled away. Emma smiled and wiped away my tears. She's about 2 inches taller than me. "Alright. How about we go home." Emma said. I smiled and nodded and she put her arm around my shoulders. Cara walked on the other side of me. We walked out of the airport and the paparazzi was out here. I cowered a little and Emma pulled me closer to her. "Don't worry. I've got you." She whispered. I smiled a little as we walked to a black Charger. Cara put my duffle in the trunk, then got in the driver's side. "You and Em sit in the back." She said. I nodded and we got in the back. Emma kept her arm around me and I smiled. "So, Regina, tell me about yourself." Emma said, quietly. "Uh.. Well, what do you want to know?" I asked. She smiled. "Everything." She whispered and I could feel her breath ghosting my earlobe. I couldn't help but smile. I'm so in love with her.
