She didn't know what to do, she stood there, frozen, thinking if she should run or just end it, all of it. In her mind both seemed like excellent idea, but for the time being she left the diner, the door slammed when she exited, but she didn't care, didn't even notice. She heard footsteps approaching her, but she continued and didn't turn around.

"Regina." She knew that voice, it was Rumple.

"I am not in the mood, Rumple." She didn't want to deal with him, normally, she would be dying to know what he's up to but nothing was normal about the situation she was in.

"Regina, look at me." She still didn't turn around. "Regina, look at me." She slowly turned around.

"What do you want?"

"I want you not to be you and I don't want you to make rash decisions that could change your life because of one thief."

"He already changed it."

"Are you...? When? How? I mean I know how, but how did you...?" Rumple said but couldn't finish, and he didn't have to because she knew what he was asking.

"Yes, I don't know when, and about the how part, I think that when I broke Zelena's curse I also broke mine."

"It's not your fault, you did what you thought was best, and you were right. You were a child, you weren't meant to have children from a loveless marriage." Rumple said, he showed her how to curse herself so that she couldn't have children.

"I'm leaving, tonight. I am going to transfer all of my money on one account and move out of this place, I want my child to have a normal life." Regina said.

"And what about Henry? Robin?" Rumplestilstkin asked, he trusted her judgement and he supported her just like he used to.

"I'll say goodbye to Henry, but he won't know that it is a goodbye. And for Robin, he's my soul mate, I'll never stop loving him, but he has his wife back, I maybe a lot of things but I am not a home wrecker."

"Will you say goodbye to anyone else?"

"Yes, Tink and you, but I guess you beat me to it. Umm, will you, ummm, I'd like to have you by my side tonight, if that's okay? You're my teacher, and we've been through a lot together, just until I go." Regina asked nervously.

"I'd be honoured to." They went back to the diner and first found Henry, Regina hugged him as tight as she could savouring his scent, his everything

"I love you, Henry." She whispered.

"I love you, too. Mom, are you okay?" Henry asked concerned.

"I will be. One more thing before I go, your book, would you mind giving it to me?"

"Regina." Rumplestilstkin warned her.

"Yeah, sure, what's going on?" He asked as he opened his backpack and searched for the book.

"Nothing, just reliving some old memories." She answered and took the book.

"I might not give it back to you."

"That's okay." He said and hugged her again, he knew something was off about her but he just assumed that it was Robin.

"We have to go, we need to find Tink." She said and without a word left on the other side of the diner searching for a certain fairy.

"Rumple." Belle called behind them. They both turned around.

"What's going on?" Belle asked, Rumple exchanged looks with Regina and she said "Fine, she can come, I like her. Belle, have you seen Tink?"

"Yes, she's over there." Belle pointed, Rumple took her hand and they walked behind Regina. Belle wanted to know what was happening but she kept quiet.

"Tink."

"Regina... I'm sorry, I didn't know, I just wanted you to be happy." Tink started to apologise.

"No, don't. I was happy because of you, because of you I have a reason to live, don't blame yourself, don't stop believing in yourself, because you are extraordinary and because I'll never stop believing in you." Regina finished and Tink hugged her, Regina hugged her back.

"Yeah? You don't blame me? It might or might not be my fault but it's not yours. You are going to be fine, okay?" Tink said through tears.

"I know, but we have to go." Regina said and left the diner.

"Are you okay?" Rumple asked her.

"No." She said and started to sob, she broke down, but he held her firm and tight, he let her cry in his shoulder. Belle took the book from them and watched the scene even more confused when everything clicked.

"That wasn't just a conversation, was it? You're leaving, and you know why." Belle said.

"She is and I do know why." Soon Regina calmed down.

"Now, we just need to get to my office so that I can take care of the papers. My car is there so I guess we'll have to walk."

"Or not." Rumple said and red smoke rounded all three of them and they were in Regina's office.

"Right, I should have thought of that."

Regina said and sat behind her desk, she quickly transferred all of her money on one account and took the papers, her ID, drivers license, everything she needed from the drawer.

"I guess we are ready to go." She said and they went down to her car.

"And where are all of your clothes?" Belle asked.

Regina waved her hand and said "In the car". The ride to the town line was... quiet. Nobody said a thing. They arrived and all of them exited the car.

"Are you sure that this is what you want?" Rumple asked.

"No, but we need this." Regina said and put her hand on her flat stomach.

"You're pregnant?" Belle asked and got affirmative nods from both Regina and Rumple.

"No one can know, especially not him. So, I guess that this is the part where I say goodbye to you, but before that, I'll be in Boston and if everything goes well I'd like you to come and visit and maybe be the baby's godparents?"

"Yes, we'd love to." Belle answered.

"There is a safe in my house behind the big horse painting, in there you'll find the last thing you need to make a potion - the one that doesn't require the get any sentimental items or whatever. Well, goodbye, I'll see you soon, I hope, and until you figure out the potion we can video chat or something. "

"You most definitely will." Rumple said and then hugged her, he let go and then Belle hugged her too. "Be brave and be strong and don't be stupid.", Belle whispered to her. "I promise", she answered.

She got into the car and drove over the town line.

"Will she remember this?" Belle asked.

"Yes, she cast the first curse and broke the second(third) one so she can leave freely. She'll be better outside of Storybrooke, I am so proud of her." Rumplestilstkin said and hugged Belle tighter, and they disappeared in a cloud of red smoke.
