I know I have other stories on here that I should be writing but I just couldn't let this one go. I found the idea on tumblr, I hope you like it. The story will alternate between both Regina's and Robin's POV.

Summary: After Marian returns Regina becomes heartbroken and decides to forget. It's now up to Robin to return her memories, but the residents of Storybrooke seem to have another idea in mind. After all, is forgetting really that bad?7

Prologue

She pulls her car over to the side of the road, the headlights shining on the painted line a few feet away. This was it. All her pain and misery would be gone with just one step. She knew it was selfish, but what else could she do? There wasn't anything left for her in this town, save for one person but all magic comes with a price and this perhaps was the greatest one. She would forget everything even herself, just like Belle last year, there was no way around it. She had to do it.

She takes a breath before stepping out into the cool, crisp air and she hears her heels click as she walks towards the line. She stops, the toe of her shoe just touching the bright orange line and wraps her fingers around the gold locket on her neck. Inside it holds a picture of Henry as a baby and a recent one of them in a tight embrace. So they'll always be together she thinks and brings it up to her lips to kiss him goodbye. "I'm so sorry," she whispers into the night, thinking of Henry one last time. She looks into the darkness ahead of her and she takes a deep breath.

Then she walks.
