Robin was staring at the fire he just made and as soon as he pushed with a stick a log that was about to fall a tear came rolling down his face. He was thinking about Regina (as always) but just when he did that he remembered the first kiss they shared, when she simply came along and against any reasonable thought, against the possible anger anyone could feel after the loss of their heart, she just went there and smacked him a kiss. It was possibly the most beautiful kiss he has ever had (at least until then), it was full of emotions he felt more things than he had ever felt before. He felt guilty for losing her heart, shocked for the kiss, happy because it was something he has been wanting to do since the moment they stood close at each other in Zelena's house, surprised that Regina did it, comfortable because she was amazing and then when the first kiss finished, thirsty for more, so he returned the kiss and for that moment he ignored everything that could ever be happening around them and he just let himself be lost in her lips.
That beautiful memory turned into deep sadness as he knew it was not going to happen again. His expression turned sadder than the one he had along the past 6 weeks. Marian had noticed that but this one broke her heart. She couldn't resist more, she gathered her courage and said:-Robin how long we've known each other?- he wiped his tears and slowly turned, he took a deep breath and answered –not so sure many years- -exactly! Many years- Marian said – I know you Robin, I know how you act and think, and in all those years I've never seen you as sad and heartbroken as I see you now. You may trick Roland but you can't trick me. I know it's because of her, because of- -Regina- he said in a low tone and stared to the window –I know but it doesn't matter you are my responsibility, Roland and you-. Marian wanted to say more things but as soon as Roland saw his father standing up he ran to his arms – Can we go to the park please?- to which Robin took advantage of, he didn't want to keep talking about Regina with Marian,-of course little boy- he gave a "you know I have to go" stare to Marian and he left the apartment.
Marian felt a huge discontent so she decided to go to the dinner down the block. She was friend of the chef, a handsome blue eyed man named Harry. He had a tragic past, he lost his family in an accident and he was the only survivor, therefore he got in charge of the family business. He was tall and had dark curly hair which highlighted the pale tone of his skin and the blue of his eyes. Since Marian arrived he's been hypnotized by her, something mysterious and curious in her sight made him be more and more interested in her. He didn't knew exactly what he felt for her, it was just an unexplainable attraction to her, like if he knew her from a past life but that seemed quite impossible for him so he just tried to be her friend. Every day he looked to the crowd and search for her eyes until one day he decided to talk to her. It had been two weeks, they've got the apartment and everything seemed going normal. At the beginning she was happy and excited for the possibility of making her life back with Robin and Roland nonetheless Robin was too sad to react to that and she understood it so she tried to give him some space but close enough to conquer him again. Every day she went to the dinner and got amazed by the deliciousness the chef made she always wanted to meet him and thank him but she wasn't sure how.
So one day they mysteriously agreed (each by their own) to gather their courage and go talk to the other. Marian didn't sit on the table of the corner but in the bar, she thought there she may have a bigger chance to talk to him. On the other hand Harry decided to be chef and waiter so he can have a bigger chance to talk to her than when he is in the kitchen and near the bar. The hours went by and Harry never saw Marian and neither did she. They were both disappointed and in that way fool for thinking they could ever talk as friends when they were just strangers to one another. The dinner was about to close and it was late, Marian needed to return home, Robin can manage everything by his own, but still, she had nothing left to do there. She stood and walk to the door looking at the floor ignoring everything that happened around her. Harry picked the dishes from a table and walked to the kitchen not paying attention to what was near him. That day could've gone by just like that, but destiny didn't want it that way. Someone in the corner called and Harry turned not realizing there was a bench behind him, which made him fell and throw everything. Marian heard the uproar closed the door and kneel to help the poor waiter.-Need any help?- she said nicely, he looked up and both said –you-.
