Walking back to camp more upset thank ever, Robin couldn't help but think about what Mary Margaret had said. Regina NEVER let anybody behind her walls, well that's not true she only has let three people past her walls. Daniel her first love, but he had been killed and Regina had been heartbroken. Henry who she loves with all her heart, but he didn't know that and he went to find his birth mother which crushed Regina's heart. And finally himself, and look what he had done to her. Everyone important in her life eventually leaves her, and he was just like the rest. Hearing someone call his name he turned to see Marion running towards him.
"Robin where have you been? I have been looking for you for HOURS!" Marion was out of breath, and visibly angry, he was never around anymore.
"I'm sorry Marion I…. was just on a walk. Anyway why what happened?" Robin stuttered over his words, he had never been a very good liar. Knowing that he was lying her face grew very dark; she knew exactly where he had been.
"You saw her didn't you, didn't you?! I told you to stay away from her! I'm back now and we can finally be a family like we were once. Do you remember how happy we were? I love you and you love me so why do you have to go and see her." Taking a step closer to him she pressed her body against his and looked into his eyes. What she saw she couldn't exactly pinpoint, but she had a feeling she knew what it was.
"Of course I remember when we were happy; it was the best years of my life. But now Marion, I don't know if I still love you like that. I mean I will probably always love you but, when you returned I thought the feelings would come back and they just didn't." Shaking his head he stepped away from his wife, unsure of his feelings.
"Robin it's only been a day, I know that I still love you and I know you love me too. We have a son together, and we can have more children if you want to. Together finally I know you will be happy, don't let that home wrecker come between us." Reaching her hand up to his face he flinched, and knocked her hand away.
"Marion you don't understand, this thing I have with Regina is real. It's not just a fling, I love her. Do you know what it feels like to hurt the people that you love?" Shaking her head slightly Marion was growing more agitated with the Evil Queen by the second. "It feels like your heart is shattered, and everything is dark. So dark that you can't see anything, but you know that you've hurt them. Marion I'm sorry but I need to be alone right now. I'm going to rent a room at granny's and figure all of this out." Starting to walk away Marion grabbed Robins hand and spun him around. Bringing her lips to his she tried to kiss him with all the passion she had in her.
"Did you feel anything?" She asked him hoping he would say yes. Turning around he started walking towards the town. Stopping abruptly in his tracks he thought about his answer.
"I didn't feel anything, not a single thing." Walking away from his wife Robin felt terrible for saying it, but it was the truth. When he was finally out of earshot Marion began to breakdown sobbing, the Evil Queen had taken everything from her. Silently thanking God that Roland was out with the merry men; Marion pulled herself together and made her way towards the mayor's house.

With the sobbing done, Regina felt weak and tired. Making her way to the kitchen to boil some water, Mary Margaret followed her.
"Regina are you sure, I can stay the night if you aren't feeling well?" Feeling guilty, Regina turned around to face the woman she used to hate so much.
"You know Snow; I never apologized for trying to kill you. All those years I wanted you dead, I did horrible things to you and your friends. Yet here you are helping me out, why?" Regina shook her head confused, why would she help the Evil Queen. As if reading her thoughts, Mary Margaret said just what Regina needed to hear.
"Regina you are not the Evil Queen anymore. We're friends and family, so I would love to help you. You may not see it Regina, but everyone here cares about you and loves you." At the mention of love, the former Queens face lit up like a Christmas tree. Smiling softly she walked over to Mary Margaret and gave her a swift hug, something unusual even for broken Regina. A little taken aback Mary Margaret hugged back tightly, happy to be repairing the relationship with her "Step Mother". Pulling back from the hug Regina looked embarrassed, and quickly turned around.
"Anyway, no you need to go home and spend time with your family. I feel guilty that I've kept you this long; to be honest I'm slightly embarrassed at my actions earlier today. Go home; be with your husband and Emma. Oh, can you tell henry that I say hello?" Putting a kettle on the stove to make tea, Regina became lost in her thoughts of Robin. Exiting the house quietly, Snow turned around one last time and smiled at her new found friend. Hearing the door close behind Snow, Regina let out a sigh of relief and finished boiling the water. Only this water wasn't for tea, it was for an escape.
As she had during the missing year, Regina began to make a sleeping curse. Adding all the ingredients that she had gotten out of her vault while Mary Margaret was in the bathroom, she took a hairpin out of her pocket and dipped it in the dangerous liquid.
"There's no happiness for me now, Henry lives with Emma and Robin is with Marion." Turning the pin in her hand slowly, she brought it up to her pointer finger, preparing to prick it. An inch before it touched her finger, she heard someone open her door and slam it. Quickly putting the pin in her pocket, she turned to face Marion.
"What the hell are you doing in my house?" Trying to sound fierce, Regina once again sounded like the broken shell of a woman that she was. Walking closer, Marion noticed how bad Regina looked. She was dramatically pale, her face looking hollow. Her eyes were haunted and her clothes were wrinkled, she obviously hadn't looked in the mirror. The former Queen would have never let herself become so…. disheveled.
"Why I'm here, well isn't that pretty obvious. I know that Robin was here today, he admitted he was. I'm giving you ONE CHANCE TO STAY AWAY FROM MY HUSBAND." At the sound of Robins name, Regina's heart skipped a beat. Confusion written across her face, Regina didn't understand what Marion had said.
"Robin wasn't here today, I have been with Mary Margaret ALL day long." Shaking her head Regina turned away from the woman, feeling her pocket to make sure that the pin was still there. Feeling shaky when she thought about what had happened; she gripped the counter for support. Without a warning, Marion ran up to her and held a dagger to her throat.
"DON'T LIE TO ME, HE SAID HE WAS HERE AND HE WAS TELLING THE TRUTH. LEAVE MY FAMILY ALONE OR I SWEAR I WILL KILL YOU." Regina's response was so chilling that shivers went up Marion's spine.
"Go ahead, kill me I don't care. I don't have anything to live for anymore so go ahead kill me. If you won't then I will. Raising her neck so that Marion had a better angle to cut it, the younger woman stepped back from Regina, concern written across her face. Backing all the way out her house, Marion shut the door and ran. The former Evil Queen was broken, and Marion was no longer angry at her, she had been telling the truth.
With Marion gone, the brunette took out the pin from her pocket. Holding it up to the light she had one final sentence.
"Now I can finally go to sleep".
