Epilogue
"I found them," said Robin as he entered his cabin, where Regina was. It had been a few months since the whole incident and they were enjoying the company of each other. It had been a great time for both of them. It was no longer winter, so Robin and Regina would spend a lot of time out in the woods.
"What are you talking about?" said Regina as she turned down the music that she was playing. "Considering that you left me and had been gone for hours it must be something great," she said as she approached him.
"I know I've been out for hours and I'm sorry if it made you mad, but I had to find them, so I've been in the library looking for them, and guess what? They were there," said Robin as he took out of his bag two books.
They had been joking about it a lot since they got the invitation, but Regina didn't know that Robin would take it as something serious. Storybrooke was going to celebrate the anniversary of the town with a huge costume party. Everybody was invited, they just needed to get a costume, and also bring some food and drinks to share.
When Regina commented Robin about the party, he was always so far from that kind of celebrations, Robin got the crazy idea that they must be dressed as what they had joked a while ago. It was when they just had started dating and Robin mentioned that her name meant queen, and as she had been tormenting a girl called Snow, she seemed to be the evil queen of Disney, and Regina had told him that since his name was Robin and he was a thief, he could be Robin Hood.
Regina still remembered the moment when Robin proposed that crazy idea.
They had been looking for costumes in Regina's computer, and they wanted it to be a matching costume, but what he liked she didn't and what she liked he didn't. that was how they got rid of options like the joker and Harley Quinn, Han Solo and Princess Leia and more.
As they were looking in different sites of costumes, Robin got a fresh idea, that made him feel like there was a bulb over his head.
"We should dress up as Robin Hood and the Evil Queen," he said excited.
"what?" asked regina as she was not paying attention to what he had said.
"I said we should dress up as Robin Hood and the Evil Queen, remember when we joked about it?" Robin explained to her, hoping that she would remember when they joked about the characters.
"That'd be insane, because first, we were looking for matching costumes," said regina as she pointed it with her thumb. "Second, I believe that they're not from the same story," she said as she marked it with her index. "and third they were never a couple," she said pointing it with her middle finger.
"You're so stubborn," said Robin as he hugged her and gave her a quick kiss.
Since then Robin had been insisting about the fact that they should go dressed as them, but Regina didn't want to listen to him.
Robin got the idea that in the stories, they never mentioned if the characters met each other, so he went to the library to found the books. When he got to the cabin, he gave Regina the one about Robin Hood and he started reading the one about Snow White.
Regina was in the couch reading her book and Robin was next to her. They were silent to each other for a few minutes, since they were into the stories. Regina liked Robin's story, even though he was a thief, because it was fun. But there was something that couldn't fit with their matching costume thing.
"Too bad, you have a fiancée in this book," Regina said as she closed it and left it in the table of the living room.
"Huh, yeah, that's bad," said Robin nervous as he closed his book. He was reading the story about Snow White, and the evil queen wasn't nice. She was nothing like Regina, but also there was something that Regina wouldn't like. "Well, I guess we're going to keep looking for costumes," he added.
"Why are you so nervous?" asked Regina as she sat next to him again. Regina noticed that the book about the Evil Queen was next to the one about Robin Hood so she took it.
"Give me that," he said, trying to keep her from reading.
"No, I want to see it," said Regina as she took it and started reading it.
Robin was so upset that she was going to read what would happen to the queen.
"Well, this is worst, I'm dead," she said with sarcasm as she left the book. "I'm gonna go to my place, I'm supposed to have dinner with my parents, and since everything is alright between them and me, and even you, for once, I'm leaving," said Regina.
Robin noticed that she was clearly upset about what she just read. She didn't even kissed him when she left.
As Robin was left alone, with two books that clearly made Regina feel bad, he had an incredibly idea, that he couldn't wait to show her.
…
A few days later, Regina was in Robin's place again. They didn't talk about the incident with the books again, and they didn't talk about the costume party. The date was really close, and since they didn't speak about it anymore, Regina thought that maybe the idea of having matching costumes would die and they would dress as different things.
Robin was preparing tea, as he always did, and Regina was trying to chose what movie should they see. When Robin joined her, sitting beside her, he was not only carrying the cups, but also a book.
"I think you should read this book," he said as he left it in her lap.
Regina took a look at the cover of the book and it said "The queen and the thief, by Robin Locksley". Regina rolled her eyes because he was still having the idea of them being those characters.
She opened the book and she started reading. It said:
"Once upon a time, there was an Evil Queen and a Thief that ended up together. It wasn't normal, but it happened. She had been banished from the land that she was, after Snow White she and Snow White made peace with each other without any harm. The thief was in the same land after he had been heart broken after her fiancée realized that she didn't want to marry a thief and left him. He was still a thief, so when he saw the Evil Queen wearing not only expensive clothes but also jewelry, he tried to stole them from her. The queen defend herself and she ran away from him, feeling for the first time scared.
She was alone in the middle of the woods, and she didn't have anywhere to go. She was sitting in a trunk admiring her crown, when he found her again, and that was the first time that they talked without fighting.
They both were starting a new life in a new land, and as the queen had nowhere to go, the Thief invited her to his camp, where he had a few tents and also food and water.
That was how they started dealing with each other, and as odd as it looks, they didn't fight anymore. They were friends, but also they were each other most precious thing, because they were each other support.
That was how they found love in each other, in the middle of the woods, where nobody else was there.
That happened when she gave him her crown so he could take care of it, he asked her if she really trusted him, after knowing that he was a thief, she answered him that he couldn't steal something that has been given to him.
That was when they realized that they loved each other, and that was when they had their first kiss. In the middle of the woods, where they had met.
That's the story of the Evil Queen and the Thief, who finally felt happy, after a long time of being unhappy."
As Regina finished reading the story, she kissed Robin like she never did before. He had made literally everything to make her happy, which meant in that case, writing a whole new story about two characters that could be them.
"I think we should dress up as The Evil Queen and Robin Hood," she said before kissing him again.
…
The day of the costume party finally came, and Regina and Robin were fixing their costumes at Regina's house. Since the day when Regina talked with her mother, she had accepted her and Robin's relationship. Maybe she didn't know that he used to be a thief, but he was no longer one.
When the clocked marked the six, they were both in the party, dressed as the evil queen and Robin Hood. What surprised them was another thing.
"Robin, was it a costume party or a fairy tale party?" she asked him as they were entering the party.
"Costume party, baby," he said joking. "Why?"
"Don't you see?" she said pointing at the people who was in the party. They were all dressed as Disney characters. "there is Snow White, dressed as well, it could make sense, Snow White, and there are my friends dressed as Cruella De Vil, Maleficent and Ursula from the little mermaid" Regina explained.
All of them were dressed as Disney Characters. There was a little mermaid, a few princes, Cinderella, even there was a girl dressed as little red riding hood and her grandma. There was also a girl dressed as Tinker Bell, and a guy dressed as Peter Pan.
"Well, just let them all be happy, maybe they feel like they're the characters too," Robin said joking.
Regina laughed. "That's true," as she said that, she saw that there was a little blonde prince who was talking to Snow White, and she found it hilarious.
"Looks like Snow White found her prince," she said to Robin as she pointed them.
And as silly as it can sound, they were all having a good time, being happy.
