Regina walked into her home feeling as if everything was right with the world, she had a career which she loved and good friends, and now after years after shutting herself off from the possibility of love again, Robin had cracked the wall she had put her around herself. She started to the stairs to make her way up to her room, she had to pick out something nice for her date with Robin tonight.

"Regina," Jonathan Mills said from the entrance way of his study. "Would you come in here please?"

"Is something wrong?" Regina asked as she paused on the steps.

"I have something I need to discuss with you, please join me here in the study." Jonathan said. Regina took a deep breath before she went down the stairs and walked into the study. Jonathan shut the door behind her and walked to his desk to take a seat. "Sit down, Regina."

"Just tell me what you need to say so I can go," Regina said.

"I said sit down!" Jonathan said. Regina sat down in the chair before his desk.

"Now, I've heard that you have been out with Robin Locksley today," Jonathan said as he poured himself a drink.

"Yes, what of it?" Regina said.

"You're not to go out with that man ever again. Do you understand me?" Jonathan asked.

"Since when does my love life concern you?" Regina asked defiantly.

"Since I said so, Regina. Robin Locksley is not for you," Jonathan said firmly.

"I don't have to listen to you, I'm well passed the age of twenty-one, and for another thing you are not my father." Regina said.

"I'm the only thing you've had as a father in many years," Jonathan said.

"You keep telling yourself that, you're not my father and you will never be my father." Regina said as she stood up.

"Sit down!" Jonathan said as he slammed his fist on his desk, rattling some items on the desk. Regina took her seat again. "Zelena tells me that you stole the rocket that was meant for her back at the ball. You were there that night, the one dancing with Robin, weren't you?"

"So what if I was dancing with him. I don't have to answer to you." Regina said. How dare he treat her like a child, and all because of his precious Zelena. "Zelena had changed the rockets so that hers was going to match Robin's, she got exactly what she deserved."

"You are to apologize to Zelena and inform Robin, that you will not be seeing him ever again." Jonathan said.

"I'll do no such thing, I'm not going to apologize to Zelena for doing to her what she originally was going to do herself. And I'll see Robin as much as I want to, tonight for starters." Regina said as she stood up to walk out of the study.

"Not so fast," Jonathan said and for an older man he reached Regina in no time, grabbing her by her upper arms and shaking her, before slamming her against the walls of the study. "You will listen to me, or I'll make sure you and your mother are kicked out of this house and left with nothing. Do you understand me?" He asked as he shook her again.

"You can't do that! You know how sick my mother is, she's just getting over her cancer. She needs rest and no stress right now." Regina said.

"Then you'll do exactly as I say," Jonathan said. "You're going to say that you were just using him for a good time and that he never meant anything to you."

"You're a monster," Regina said. She felt like she was between a rock and a hard place, Jonathan had never become violent with her before. He was basically forcing her to choose between her mother's health and Robin.

"A very smart monster, you'll never beat me on this issue, Regina. Now call Robin and tell him you can't see him anymore." Jonathan said as he threw her towards the desk, but she lost her footing and the side of her head hit the corner of his desk. She knew she would have a bruise there from the impact. "Get up and call him!" Jonathan said as he put one hand on her arm and pulled her to her feet and shoved the phone at her.

Regina felt tears come to the back of her eyes, but she knew what she had to do. She quickly dialed Robin, she took a deep breath trying to get it together. He answered on the second ring.

"Hello?" Robin asked.

"Robin, it's Regina," Regina started to say.

"Regina, hello. Is something wrong? You're not calling to cancel on me now are you?" Robin asked, she could hear the humor in his voice and hated that his joke was exactly what she was being forced to do. At the silence on the other end, Robin grew concerned. "Regina?"

Regina didn't want to have to do this, but when Jonathan tightened his grip on her arm she started to speak. "Robin, I made a mistake. I was just having a good time with you, but none of it meant anything to me."

"Regina, what is going on? What's wrong?" Robin asked. None of what she was saying made any sense.

"Just leave me alone, don't call me anymore." Regina said.

"Regina, I'm coming over and we're going to talk," Robin said.

"No! Robin don't you get it? It was just a way to get back at Zelena, taking you from her. Now that I have, there's nothing more to be said." Regina said as tears came to her eyes as she said these hateful words to him.

"Regina, what has changed since this afternoon?" Robin asked. He didn't believe a word that she was saying to him.

"Goodbye Robin," Regina said as she hung up the phone, she could hear Robin saying her name as she was putting the phone down.

"Now are you happy now?" Regina asked as she jerked her arm away from him and started to the study door.

"Regina, don't even attempt to contact that man again. Or you will suffer for it." Jonathan said as she looked at him and left the study.

Regina headed for her room, wanting to just get there and lock the door from this situation. As she neared her room, she heard her mother call out to her.

"Regina? Is that you?" Cora called from her bedroom. Regina composed herself and wiped the tears from her eyes as she walked in to see her mother, lying in the bed.

"Hello mother, how are you doing?" Regina said as she went to her side of the bed. Cora took her hands in hers.

"Today is a better day." Cora said as she looked at her daughter. "Regina, is something wrong? What happened to the side of your face?"

"No, nothing is wrong. Just been a long day is all, I fell on some steps earlier. Can I get you anything?" Regina asked, thinking a new husband or an ex husband right now.

"No dear, you know just because I'm sick doesn't mean I am not here for you anytime." Cora said as she looked into her daughter's face. Something was wrong, she knew it.

"I know that mother, I need to get some errands done. You call me if you need anything," Regina said as she kissed her mother's hand before leaving the room. Once she was in her room, she locked the door and hugged her form with her own arms, wincing when she felt the places where Jonathan had squeezed her. She looked at herself in the mirror, seeing the mark that Jonathan had left on her head from his throwing her into his desk. She was about to walk into the bathroom when she heard her phone ringing, she went to her purse and pulled it out. She winced upon seeing Robin's name on it, she let it stop ringing before checking and saw where he had called numerous times, and left several voice mails. Regina turned her phone off because she knew he wasn't about to give up. She placed her phone on the dresser and went to lay down on her bed, letting the tears that needed to flow run down her face.

Robin called Regina's cell phone again, and heard as it went to voice mail. His frustration was growing as she didn't answer him. He knew she was ignoring his calls now. Why had she changed her mind all of a sudden about them? Every thing had been perfect today, they had enjoyed each other on their morning date, and Regina was looking forward to their date tonight. Then a short time later she was calling everything off between them? Something didn't add up and he was going to find out what was the reason behind this. He had called the house phone but was told that Regina didn't want to speak to him by some helpless maid.

"Regina, call me back. We need to talk about this." Robin said to her voice mail. He waited a few minutes before making his mind up. "Damnit!" He grabbed his keys and headed to Regina's house, his mind on everything she had said to him in that phone call. He knew he was beginning to mean something to her, just like she was to him. He had to admit it to himself but he was falling in love with her. She had to have some feelings for him, otherwise she never would let him have gotten that close to her.

He arrived at her house a few minutes later and parked his car, he stormed to the door and rung the doorbell. A few seconds later a maid came to the door.

"Can I help you?" the maid asked.

"I need to see Regina," Robin said.

"I'm sorry, but Regina is not receiving visitors at this time." the maid said as if she had been coached to say so.

"Excuse me," Robin said as he walked passed her and into the house.

"Sir, I'm afraid you'll need to leave," the maid said as she looked at Robin.

"Regina!" Robin called out loudly. He had no idea where she would be in this big house. Upstairs Zelena had heard Robin calling for Regina, she quickly went to Regina's bedroom door, and locked it from the outside, just in case. She then hurred to go to Robin.

"Robin, what a pleasant surprise." Zelena said as she came downstairs.

"Where's Regina?" Robin asked.

"I think she's out right now. Oh dear she didn't tell you did she?" Zelena asked.

"Tell me what?" Robin asked suspiciously.

"She's out with her boyfriend, they had a tiff before but are now back together." Zelena said, not sure if he would believe her.

"I find that hard to believe Zelena." Robin said. Robin knew Regina was not like that.

"Why don't you and I go out for a few drinks? My treat," Zelena offered.

"I only want one thing right now, I want to see Regina." Robin said as he made to go to the steps.

"Hold it Locksley," Jonathan called out stopping Robin in his steps.

"Where is she Jonathan?" Robin asked as he walked up to him.

"You are not invited in this house, I suggest you leave before I call the police." Jonathan said.

"Now Daddy," Zelena said.

"You can't keep me from her Jonathan, she's a grown woman." Robin said.

"You have ten seconds to leave, Locksley." Jonathan said.

"I'll leave, for Regina's sake. But know this, I will be back." Robin promised. He looked around the house once more before leaving. He got into his car and drove back. Jonathan had done something, he was sure of it. Between him and Zelena, something had caused Regina to do this. He was going to talk to Regina somehow, and he knew exactly who he had to call to help him.
