A/N Been wanting to write a OUAT FanFic for a while now. Especially from Regina's POV because she is probably my fav. She just wants to be happy... My first OUAT fic. Review please and thank you!
Regina walked slowly from Granny's diner towards her mansion. She didn't even want the damn thing anymore. Why would she want a big house or land or power of it didn't make her happy. Of course Emma saved Robin Hood's wife of all people. That family ruined everything for her. Everything. First Snow White got Daniel killed, then the savior comes back and starts to steal Henry, the only thing she truly loves, away from her and now this.
She thought back to what Rumplestiltskin had said-what had been haunting her for a year really, now that they had their memories back. Villains don't get happy endings. After everything she did, after how she changed, was she still a villain? Didn't she deserve her happy ending? She wasn't ways bad, yet Daniel was still taken from her. Why did she deserve that!? She was still innocent back then. Maybe it was just this fate Rumple had been talking about. Destiny. She was destined to become the evil queen and she was a villain from the start. It sounded like a load of crap to her. She was good now, she was trying! Why wasn't that enough? Henry said she was a hero, so why didn't she feel like it? All she wanted was her happy ending. True love, like Snow and Charming. She wondered what the use of trying to be good was anymore, if she was always destined to be the villain?
Now that she was away from everyone, alone, she allowed herself to break down. Tears streamed down her face and her quiet crying turned to sobs. She remembered just why she wanted to take her heart out the year before when she didn't have Henry. Why she wanted to put herself under a sleeping curse. The pain then was unbearable, and now it was almost as bad. But this time she was able to console herself with the fact that at least she still had Henry, even if her true love had once again been taken. Her happy ending ripped from her grasp right when it was in arms reach. Although she wouldn't dare use a sleeping curse now, Regina barely refrained from ripping her heart out to try and numb the pain.
It wasn't fair. But maybe she deserved this. Maybe this was retribution for all the people she killed and all the lives she ruined. Maybe this fate thing wasn't a load of crap. Maybe she was just destined to be alone forever. The evil queen. A villain. And maybe villains really could never live happily ever after.
