A/N: Now in a professional sense, I know what will happen between Robin, Regina and Marian in this chapter would NEVER happen in real life, at least I would hope not, but it seems to have turned out to be a bit, dramatic, but this is my story and it seems to have happened, please enjoy anyway!
Previously in Car Trouble
"I apologize for being so late, there was a small, complication, about me leaving the house this evening" Regina said as took her seat at the table,
"Nothing to serious I hope" Mrs Hood said, concern in her voice, Regina smiled,
"Oh no, my" Regina paused a small smile gracing her lips, "My partners daughter was upset that I had to leave" Regina said, feeling happier than ever, knowing that she had a family, a family to go home to someday.
"Thank you for meeting us at such short notice Mrs Mills" Mr Hood said extending his hand, Regina's eyes narrowed but she took his hand, she didn't exactly like him that day at the school and he wasn't doing anything to change her mind.
"It's actually Ms Mills" Regina said, Mr Hood paled slightly, "and it was no problem, shall we get straight to it" Regina said.
"So, you want to renovate your current place of residents?" Regina asked, trying to deep the bite out of her voice,
"Yes, if it would be possible" Mr Hood said,
"Mr Hood, I think you have the wrong idea about what I do, I sell properties, not extend them or renovate them" Regina said, Mr Hood look confused,
"But Charles said…"
"Well I am clearly not Charles, Mr Hood" Regina said, she was becoming more and more annoyed with him the more he spoke, his accent done nothing to help their current situation,
"Please excuse my husband, this move has been a big change for all of us" Mrs Hood piped up, Regina looked at her, "You see, in England, we lived in the forest"
"How, lovely" Regina said with a forced smile, Mrs Hood chuckled,
"I don't mean in a tree house" she added with a smile, "we lived in a lovely house, just off the main road in a forest park, it was rather lovely actually"
"I understand that you want to try and keep everything as normal for the sake of your son, but I have to be honest, I can't help you in what you want, in buying a house, yes, but in renovating a building that hasn't been lived in for centuries, it just, isn't my forte, I recommend that you contact Charles and discuss things further with him, perhaps he can point you in the right direction" Regina said, Mrs Hood smiled,
"Thank you, for meeting us" Mrs Hood said as all three stood, "I'm Marian, by the way" Marian said extending her hand, Regina smiled,
"Regina"
"This is my husband Robin" Marian said,
"We've met" Regina said, both Robin and Marian raised their eyebrows,
"Have we, ma'am?" Robin asked, Regina smiled,
"Oh we have, that day at the school, your son had an, altercation with my partner's daughter" Regina said, Robin paled slightly and cleared his throat,
"Y..yes, I do remember seeing you" Robin said not making eye contact, Marian looked from Robin to Regina,
"Roland had an altercation?" Marian asked, obviously not aware of her sons' behaviour towards Eve, Robin looked to his wife,
"It was a small thing, it was sorted" Robin said, Marian looked to Regina and raised her eyebrow,
"I don't want to cause trouble" Regina said,
"Aren't you already doing that?" Robin hissed, Regina narrowed her eyes,
"I'm his mother, I need to know these things" Marian said, Regina spied the waiter from the corner of her eye taking to someone in a suit, Regina smiled,
"I shall be right back" Regina said, "Timothy, I'm so sorry" Regina said shaking the owner's hand,
"Lovely to see you Regina, but you and you're friends are causing a small disturbance" Timothy said,
"Oh no, they are not my friends, clients" Regina said, Timothy smiled,
"You always know how to rattle someone's cage" Timothy said as they looked on at Robin and Marion being lead out, fighting.
"Regina, care to explain how you pretty much fucked up you're meeting with the Hoods?" Charles growled through the radio as Regina drove back towards her house,
"I'm sorry Charles, but you know the people I work with, renovations is not my forte" Regina said, she could hear him sigh,
"I know, I thought I would give you a challenge" he said, Regina smiled,
"I appreciate it Charles, but next time, inform me before you throw me to the wolves with a man who I wanted to rip apart" Regina said, she heard Charles chuckled,
"Robin, can be hard to handle"
"Hard, he was impossible, and the constant staring, I'm surprised his wife is still with him" Regina said,
"You really are the Evil Queen my dear" Charles chuckled, Regina smiled, "Marian, she's a lovely woman, why's she's wasting her life on him I will never know, I suppose she owes her life to him" Charles said,
"Come again" Regina said, not entirely in the loop,
"Robin, he saved Marian, from a rather, abusive relationship, so in return, Marian gave him her life, he treats her well, but I feel that she could do much better than a lumberjack" Charles said, Regina chuckled,
"I know they are your friends Charles and I appreciate you trusting me with them, however, I would like to work with the more, suitable clients" Regina said,
"As you wish, your majesty" Charles said, Regina chuckled and removed the blue tooth from her ear.
"I thought you would be later than this" Henry Snr said as he walked into the living room after his daughter, "and I also thought you would be at Emma's" Henry said with a smile, Regina turned and looked at her father, she never told him about her relationship with Emma, she didn't see him to tell him, she was also scared, about moving on when she wasn't even divorced yet and what he would think
"I…I" Regina began, Henry chuckled and walked towards Regina,
"I know, my child, I know, and you have nothing to worry about, I have seen a change in you and in Henry since meeting her, she is good for you, the both of you, and I could not be more proud of you, moving on with your life" Henry said as he pulled Regina into a hug, Regina sighed and wrapped her arms around her father, inhaling his scent as she closed her eyes.
"Mommy?" Eve asked as she snuggled down on Emma's left side, Emma smiled, it had taken four stories before either one of the kids decided that they wanted to attempt sleep, the days events was rather exciting, and the stories, that were based around the day added full to the slowly dying fire,
"What baby" Emma asked as she ran her hand through Eve's hair, Eve yawned,
"I love you" Eve whispered,
"I love you too" Emma replied,
"I love you too Emma" Henry said, Emma smiled and turned and kissed his head,
"I love you too Henry" Emma said, closing her eyes and slowly falling off to sleep.
A/N: So we had a little Evil Queen moment from Regina there, what did we think, I hope you liked this chapter as my Writers Block seems to have come back, which is why I think this chapter was harder to write towards the end, my muse was tired I guess! Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it guys! If you haven't gathered, I really don't like Robin and I'm hoping that Regina just kicks him to the curb when the show starts up again!
