Chapter 7

The Enchanted Forest – She's what?!

As they stood outside the gates to the castle ahead of them, Robin stopped and gasped as he had only been to this castle to steal for the neighboring villages once upon a time. He could not believe he was now here to meet the Evil Queen, who for once has not taken anyone captive but whom his own son is apparently brave enough to befriend. Robin gave a nervous laugh as he and Neal continued walking into the gardens up to the front door. Neal patted his old friends back before he swung the door open to make a grand entrance.

They began to walk inside the main entryway while hearing a loud squeal come from the family room. Roland had heard the doors open and began running into the entryway to where they stood. He came dashing so fast that Robin was given no time to hold out his arm to grab his son before he realized it Roland was squeezing his legs in excitement.

He looked up at him with a huge smile from ear to ear with all his little teeth showing as he screeched as loud as he could, "PAPA!"

Robin laughed as he leaned down to pick up his hyped up little boy, "Ah there's my brave little man! How are you doing?"

"GOOOOODS! I miss'sed you papa! Regina and I's were playing with somes' toy's in the other room!" he tossed his hands high up in the air as he pointed at Regina whom had slowly came into the room.

Her arms were wrapped together sitting upon her chest. With her lips pursed together and chocolate brown eyes that wished to scream; slowly cracking a smile as she stood in front of Robin speaking calmly. "So you must be the thief that is somehow the father of this wonderful child because I don't know of anyone that would lose them for a day."

Robin just cocked up a smile and slyly responded, "That I am and it's not like I told him to run off and get lost, as you must be the evil queen, whom, may I say looks rather lovely."

She shot him a quick glare as her voice rose slightly, "Yeah sure you didn't, and are you hitting on me?"

Robin just simply winked as he put down Roland, "And suppose that am, what of it?"

Flabbergasted she raised an eyebrow, "I don't think I like it at all nor do I like your tone."

His smug grin became his trademark as he responded, "Well that's too bad and you will just have to take the compliment won't you?"

She just bit her lip as her cheeks began to flush a light pink as she walked up to Robin and slapped him across the face, "Do not speak that way with me I will not have it!"

He rubbed his cheek that was turning red from her slap as he pulled himself together, "Well I rather do like them with a little sass." He swiftly backed away before she could land another hand on him.

Roland looked up at his Papa and Regina with sad little puppy eyes, his lip quivering as he slowly began to cry.

"Yeah…not to break up this love fest you two have going on here but you happen to be upsetting Roland. Also, Belle and I need to be heading out real soon." Neal said rolling his eyes at the two.

Regina snapped Neal a glare as she primped herself back together before looking at Robin with her fake queen smile, "I'm sorry, sometimes I have a bit of a temper problem." She began rolling her eyes. Before looking down at Roland and smiled at him, "I'm sorry Roland I didn't mean to be mean to your Papa,"

"And I'm sorry, I should not have pushed you into such a situation. I was just having a little fun to be honest." Robin smiled as he gave his son a hug. "I'm sorry Roland I didn't mean to upset you,"

Roland just sniffled away before hugging Robin and walked over to hug Regina, "Its otays' I forgives' you guys'"

During their touchy moment, Snow, Charming, and Belle all busted out in laughter after seeing the two tango with each other, never had they seen this side of Regina let alone with a man she had just met.

After getting it out of her system, Belle wiped away the tears from laughing so hard and cleared out her throat before looking at Neal, "But things were just getting good."

"But we will be losing daylight and we have a long journey ahead of us,"

"Fine then," Belle sighed as her head fell low in disappointment, though she knew that Neal was right.

"Where are you going?" Robin said glancing over at Neal looking puzzled.

"To my father's, he died to save us and now we are going to try to find a way to bring him back. That way he can also help us to get back Emma and my son Henry."

"So wait, you lost your boy again?" Robin exclaimed.

"Yeah…long story." He head sunk into his shoulders feeling as he exhaled slowly, "So that's why we must go now."

Robin walked over to Neal and gave him a pat on the back with a smile to assure him it would all work out.

After a little while Neal and Belle had bid their goodbyes to everyone before leaving. Not too long following that, Snow had looked down at Roland with a curious look

"Hey Roland," She asked sweetly.

"Yes Mrs. Snow?" he said innocently.

Her cheeks turned pink and with a giggle she asked, "I'm curious how come you followed Regina out of everyone here yesterday?"

He put his fingers to his lips and patted them gently while giving everyone a cute little thinking face, "Wells'" he paused, "Becaused' I saws' she looked'd really sads' and I wanted to makes' her smiles! Which I thought I coulds' since I always could makes' my mommys' laugh when she was sads'!" he gave her a smile while running over for her to pick him up as he gave her a tight hug.

Snow just smiled as she looked over at Charming. She was ready to have another baby, she thought knowing right then and there Charming felt the same way as he mouthed to her, 'tonight let's make a baby'.

A few months had gone by as everyone had begun to get along rather well together. Snow and Charming kept trying every day for having another child. While Regina would play with Roland all the time while Robin kept persisting with his quirky flirtatious jokes; which never appeased Regina once but every now and then she did try to tease him back playfully when Roland as around.

One sunny day they all were together in the garden having a picnic, Roland was running around kicking a red ball while Robin, Regina, Snow, and Charming sat on a checkered blanket under an apple tree. Regina sat there watching him play while in the back of her mind she drew flash backs of chasing a little Henry around the front yard of their home in Storybrooke. A few tears managed to slip down her face while everyone was distracted by seeing a carriage coming up from the main gate she wiped them away. In the carriage were Aurora and Phillip, with excitement in their voices as they shouted out hello from the distance.

They halted their horse as they reached the picnic and Phillip hopped off out while helping down a pregnant Aurora. They smiled with joy as they announced their pregnancy to the group. They all smiled back and gave them a hug for congratulations.

Snow and Charming looked at each other then back to the group. Her face lit up as her cheeks became rosy upon her snow colored skin, "Well with that out of the bag we also carry good news."

Charming caressed her back as he gave his wife a kiss upon her cheek.

"Well what is it?" Regina gripped as she hid her sadness of her missing's.

"Well we were going to wait till later to tell everyone but since Aurora and Phillip are here we figured why not now." Charming said while trying to keep his excitement hidden.

"WE'RE PREGNANT!" Snow shouted with glee in her voice.

"You're what?" Regina looked dumbfounded. "Look I know you Charming's have been trying but are you serious?" she tried to seem excited for them but all she could think about was Henry and wishing he was here with her to help her enjoy the moment.

"Well I think it's great." Robin smirked.

"Oh yes, congratulations Snow!" Aurora exclaimed as she reached to hug her.

"Yes, well now all we need to do is start looking for a mid-wife to help out, because honestly we have no idea what to do." Snow said while looking at Charming before laying her head upon his shoulder.

"Well I know a woman who would be a great mid-wife. She helped Marian and I deliver Roland." Robin said calmly while trying to flirt with Regina by placing his hand upon hers.

As she felt his hand touch hers, she snarled at him while retracting her hand back and laying it on her lap, she then brought back her smile.

"Who is she?" Snow looked at Robin with doe eyes.

"I'll tell you what; I'll send one of my men to get her tomorrow so you can meet her. Trust me she's wonderful."

"We can't wait!" the Charming's smiled.

The next day, Little John went to go fetch the mid-wife that Robin had mentioned, and by late afternoon they had arrived. Snow and Charming had darted to the door as they had entered. A woman with long red curly hair that was pinned up high, with a long flowy green dress and a black corset around her bodest. She smiled so eloquently while looking amongst the Charming's.

Delightfully she spoke, "Well hello there you must be Snow White and Prince Charming." She gleamed.

"Yes but you can just call us Snow and David." They said while shaking her hand. "And what may we call you?"

The woman just smiled and tilted her head slightly to the left, "Zelena."
