MASQUERADE
By Saori-Luna
-¿A Masquerade Ball?
Mary Margaret could not see Regina's face by phone, but by her voice she could perfectly guess the way she was rolling eyes and the gesture of disapproval in her mouth.
-Of course! It is a perfect idea to celebrate about it, Emma and Henry have never had one!
Across the phone, Regina could read perfectly between the lines. It was the perfect way to make Rumple and the witches shown themselves. They had been a few days knowing the presence of the sorcerers in Storybrooke, and were tired of waiting for them to make the first move.
Regina sighed.
-All right, I will attend.
But truly, she had not the slightest interest in going. She remembered very well her last ball, he had been there.
That Friday, the Sorecerer's mansion looked resplendent with its gardens and the large living room decorated with care. However, the tension in the air was palpable. Regina knew it was too much magic in the town, but there was more that she could not explain.
Regina went to the garden in search of fresh air, feeling suffocated under the weight of the mask. And there, she saw him. It was him, even hidden under the mask, she knew it was him. It could not be someone else, and now he was running into the woods.
Without thinking, she ran after him, farther and farther into the depths of the forest until they crash . Indeed he was, she thought, as she felt the smell of forest intoxicated her senses. she looked up, ready to speak, but what she saw, left her frozen.
The usual warmth in his eyes was missing, and his blue eyes were frozen.
-Your heart, your heart has been stolen - she whispered.
-Aye, dearie.
Regina turned to face Rumple and the Queens of Darkness. Among the hands of the Dark One, Robin's heart shone brightly. Behind her, Robin collapsed, pain evident in his features.
-No, Rumple, please, I'll do whatever you want.
-I love it when they say that- he said, as he throw the heart to Regina- I hope you remember this when you decide to choose sides, dearie. Now, with you permission, we will enjoy the party, it was made in our honor, right?
Regina looked at him angrily, as she returned the heart to its rightful owner. In his arms, Robin began to regain consciousness.
-M'lady, I'm so sorry. We will solve this soon, together, I promise.
He took her face between his hands, and look at her, noticing the tears running freely upon her cheeks.
She nodded, closing the distance that separated him from his lips.
And then they kissed. Deeply.
Behind them, the flames were beginning to be seen in the distance.
