Setting: At the local jail
Rating: IDK PROBS NSFW
Content: Emma and Marney Jr go to pick up mommy from the parole office.




It had been a long five years, longer than any period of time that Emma had ever had to wait. It had been so long since she had really gotten to be with Ruby. Sure, there had been the weekly to tri-weekly visits to the prison, but that was different. They couldn't curl up on the couch, smoke a bowl and spend hours cuddling and watching movies. They couldn't talk about whatever crossed their minds at three am while they lay in bed. They couldn't even share the first four years of their daughter's life, something that had turned into Emma's own personal struggle. She loved their daughter dearly, even though she wanted to kill the man responsible, she had loved every moment of the last four years. Raising a miniature Ruby had reminded her everyday of the time she was missing with the girl she loved.

"Momma? Momma, I wanna go now!"

Emma realized that she had been staring at the grey buildings that sat in front of them and gripping the steering wheel. Letting her white knuckled hands slide from the steering wheel, she smiled and turned to Marney. The little girl was squirming in her car seat impatiently, and looking at Emma with pleading eyes. "Alright, baby girl, let's go get her."

She unbuckled her own seat belt and got out of the car to set Marney free from her car seat. She knew that letting Marney Sr watch the little girl would result in truancy. As much as Emma was still a little rascal, even at 24, she didn't want her daughter to turn out as bad as her and Ruby. That was what had gotten them into this mess to begin with. Emma lifted the little girl out of the car and locked the door once she shut it. Grasping Marney's hand, she walked briskly across the parking lot, feeling nervous. She always felt her anxiety spike when she was around the prison, even after coming here for five years. Police always put her on edge, and this was the first time she had been stone sober for weeks. She had been scared if she had taken anything they might make her take a blood test, it was unlikely, but without Ruby to tell her she was being ridiculous, her imagination ran wild.

All of that was going to change now though, today was the day that she would get Ruby back, today was the day they could be a family. She lead Marney through the doors, and up to the counter where the guard sat. He was a kindly old man who always nodded her in when she came to visit, but today was different.

"Hello Miss Emma," he said, giving her a smile as she walked up. "I bet you're here to pick up Ruby, huh?" Emma nodded enthusiastically and the guard let out a soft laugh. "Go wait over there, I'll be right back."

Emma led Marney over to the chairs in the waiting room, pulling the little girl into her lap and handing her the gameboy as they waited.

Marney squealed in delight as Ruby kissed her face, and buried her face into the crook of Ruby's neck. She allowed the brunette woman to take the gameboy without protest, and wrapped her arms tightly around her mother. Emma watched the whole exchange with tears brimming in her eyes. Marney might not know what Ruby was like outside of this building, but the love that she possessed for her mother was unaffected by that.

Emma stepped forward immediately as she heard the watery tone of Ruby's voice. She knew that the other woman didn't like to show weakness, but Emma had known and loved Ruby all of her life. She knew exactly when Ruby was about to cry. The blonde gently pulled Marney away, and set her down on the floor with a smile. She retrieved the gameboy from her girlfriends hand and handed it to Marney.

"Give mama and I just a second, sweetheart," She said. Emma gave the little girl a kiss on the head. "Go sit right there, and don't move," she indicated a chair right next to them. "And if you're super good, I might take all of us to get ice cream later, okay?"

The little girl nodded happily, grabbing the gameboy from Emma and climbing up on the chair next to the two standing women. Within moments she was consumed by her game, and Emma turned back to Ruby. She pulled the taller woman into a tight embrace, "Shh, it's okay, baby." She was crying herself, a fat tear rolling down her face. She pulled back so she could look at Ruby.

"I missed you so much, Ru," she whispered. She cupped the other woman's cheek, running her thumb across the smooth skin of her cheek. "God, I missed you." She leaned in, capturing her girlfriend in a passionate kiss. It had been so long since she had been allowed to do this, so long since she had gotten to really have Ruby all to herself.
