Emma

Thank you all so much for over 2k reads, I'm shocked my silly fan fiction has been read that many times. Sorry it took me so long to update but I've been thinking on what's going to happen next. The next few chapters might not make that much sense as I skip forward a lot of years and months throughout, but it will get much better. Are you ready for some OQ feels? Keep following and favouriting! Thanks-Amy xoxo

Regina watched a glowing Snow walk down the aisle. Her face was beaming and she was wearing a white dress that followed behind her gracefully. To Regina's right was David, with his hair cut and wearing a red suit. He didn't look like a shepherd, but a king. Everyone in the kingdom was here, witnessing the marriage of their new rulers, and everyone was happy. And as Snow and her prince Charming said their vows Regina glanced over at Robin, he was dressed smartly and winked at his lady who blushed. They had been living in the palace with Snow and David. Despite neither of them were royalty, Snow said Regina was family and let them live along the corridor of the Summer Palace.

"I do," finished David and the two newlyweds kissed as everyone applauded. Robin mouthed to Regina,

"That will be us someday."

"Perhaps," she mouthed back, smiling. Not a day had gone by that Regina hadn't smiled since she handed down her title. But soon things were to change.


A year went by after the wedding of Queen Snow and King David and all was well.

"Milady." Robin said as Regina awoke. Her deep eyes lit up as Robin pecked her forehead. She kissed his lips gently and gradually added more passion. Robin ran his hands up her bare back and she dragged her fingers through his knotted hair. It was another perfect day.

"Morning my dashing outlaw." Regina replied, finally parting her natural lips from his. Their hands interlocked under the covers and stayed as one as they walked down to breakfast.

"Morning, love birds," said Snow who was already eating. She raised her eyebrows at the couple, "You were very noisy last night." Regina buried her head in Robins shoulder and laughed in embarrassment.

"Sorry," she said. Robin pulled up a chair and sat down. Regina perched on his legs. As they started eating David walked into the room. I his arms was a small child with blonde hair.

"Go say good morning to Aunty Regina and Uncle Robin," David said in a childish voice. Regina held out her arms and held the baby. After the wedding Snow had announced she was with child and they had a daughter with fair skin just like Snows' fair hair like David's. Her name: Emma.

"Hello, Emma. Did you have a nice screaming session last night?" She asked and bounced the baby on her knee. Emma let out a squeal of laughter and Robin chuckled.

"You will make a great mother one day, love." He said and Regina froze. She handed Emma back to David and left the table. Robin watched her leave and just before the door shut behind her he heard a sob. Robin rushed after her.


"Regina!" he shouted trying to get into the locked bathroom, "Please, open the door."

Regina had her back leaning against the bathroom door, her knees up to her chest with her head buried between them. She heard Robin attempt to enter and she replied by sobbing quietly.

"Regina!" and Regina slowly unlocked the door and turned away so she wasn't facing Robin. He touched her arm in comfort.

"I'm sorry if I scared you when I said that. I just thought that our relationship was going to well…"

"It is," Regina said, still not turning around.

"I know we are not even married yet but I want to spend the rest of my life with you Regina, and I just imagined children in our future. I am so sorry that I dropped the bombshell too early. If you do not feel the same then..."

"I do, I want to spend the rest of my life with you too. It's just, it's just." Regina started to cry and Robin went around to face her.

"It's just what, milady?" He asked, concerned. "I will love you no matter what." Regina looked up into his eyes.

"You said I would make a good mother one day." She whispered and Robin wiped away her tears. He nodded.

"You will. You will make an excellent mother. The way you care for Emma, I can see it in your eyes, you are a natural with children." Robin said trying to reassure her.

"I might be a good aunt, but I will never be a good mother." Regina said her eyes welling up again and Robin looked confused as Regina continued, "My mother…"

Robin interrupted,

"You are nothing like your mother. Your heart is pure and you have been tempted by darkness but turned away. Cora treated you terribly, but I know for a fact you will be a beyond brilliant mother. I know you Regina."

Regina shook her head.

"No, it's not how my mother raised me. Well it kind of is. I can't tell you. If I do you will leave me. You say you love me and know me, but you're wrong. I am so sorry, Robin." She said and collapsed to the bathroom floor. Robin laid by her side,

"Regina. Please, tell me. I shall love you no matter what. You're my soulmate. We are destined to end up together."

"Will you love me if I say I can't have children?" Regina said with her eyes closed, not daring to open them, thinking that if she did she would be faced with a man who no longer loves her. She was thinking wrong. Robin wrapped his arms around his love as she wept.

"Oh, Regina of course I still love you. I will always love you. What happened?" He asked and Regina wiped her eyes. He loved her. She took a deep breath,

"It happened when I was with Daniel. Mother found out about my relationship with him. The lunch before she killed him she put something in my drink. I only found out after his death that it was so I couldn't carry a child. I never did anything about it as I thought no one could ever love me. Then, then when you said I would be a great mother it hit me: I can't be a great mother if I can't even be a mother. I understand if you want to leave me now." Regina said and this time Robin's eyes teared up.

"Regina, you are strongest, resilient caring person I have ever met. You didn't deserve to be raised by Cora. It doesn't matter that you cannot carry a child. We will live happily ever after as the two of us." Regina kissed him.

"Happily ever after." She repeated and was thankful that she had found a man like Robin to love.
