Sorry in advance!


Regina followed the police officer to his car just as Mal managed to get to them, "let's sit inside, no need for us to all freeze in the snow," Mal and Regina sat in the back of the car, she could feel herself shaking, not because of the cold but because of the sheer panic and worry that was coursing through her. His car had been so smashed and he hadn't been answering his phone, what if she had caused it? What if her phone call had distracted him to the point where he drove off the road and into the side of the bridge.

She was stuck in her own head worrying about the possibilities, about where he was and what had happened to him. What if he were dead? The crash looked extremely serious, what if she was never going to see his handsome face ever again? Was she never going to be able to talk to her soulmate again, or laugh at one of his stupid jokes?

"Regina," she felt Mal's hand on her arm pull her back to the present, to being sat in the back of a cop car waiting for some kind of news about her boyfriend.

"We ran the plates of the vehicle and the car does indeed belong to Mr Locksley, we checked with the medical team to see about next of kin, we can't tell someone what's going on unless they are listed as such."

Regina's heart dropped, she wasn't listed as his next of kin which meant that they wouldn't be able to tell her anything, she would be completely in the dark about what was going on with her own boyfriend. She began to panic and shook her head, "I have his mother's number, she's probably listed as his next of kin, I can ring her and you can tell her the situation, let me just find my…"

"Miss Mills, Mr Locksley changed his next of kin on his medical records about two months ago."

Regina stared at him in shock, Robin had made her his next of kin without telling her? "Then that means you can tell me?!"

"Yes, that means we can inform you of what we know."

"Tell me! What happened to him?"

"The driver of the car was found unconscious when we arrived on the scene and in a critical condition, he was taken to the nearest hospital, that is all I know at this point."

"Which hospital?!" she demanded, she needed to be with him, needed to be there for him.

"There is no way that I can permit you to drive whilst in such emotional turmoil, it wouldn't be safe. I can have one of my junior officers drive you there."

Regina nodded as he got out of the car to find someone to drive them, she wasn't going to argue with him, she knew that she shouldn't be driving when she was an emotional wreck, it wasn't safe and with the added weather conditions she didn't think that she'd be able to manage. She shakily moved her hand to swipe at the tears that had managed to slip down her cheeks and swallowed heavily she couldn't think about it, she needed to stop all those thoughts otherwise she didn't think she'd be able to carry on without breaking down, she needed to be strong.

"Regina," Mal whispered, her hands rubbing over the brunette's shoulders, "I'm coming with you to the hospital okay."

"You don't have to Mal, I'll be…"

"Regina I am coming with you whether you like it or not, I am not leaving you alone right now."

Regina nodded smiling at her friend as she found her hands and squeezed them, trying to draw comfort from her, in that moment the police officer opened the back door and smiled at her kindly, "okay mam, I found an officer to drive you to the hospital, this is Officer Humbert."

Regina rose a single eyebrow as a rather skittish looking Graham waited outside, snow dusting his uniform, "Regina, I…"

"Shut up," she snapped as she slipped out of the car and turned to the friendly policeman, "thank you for all your assistance," she stated before looking to Graham once again, "don't even speak to me, just drive to the hospital," she wasn't in the mood for his bullshit because she had a feeling that she might just murder him if he pushed the wrong buttons. She just about caught the death glare Mal threw his way before they got into a different car for Graham to drive them to the hospital.

The journey was mostly taken in silence, Mal was clinging to Regina's hands and Graham said nothing just as he had been instructed to, he simply concentrated on the road and Regina almost forgot that he was there as her head pillowed on her friend's shoulder. She couldn't stop her thoughts from drifting to Robin's condition, how long had it actually been since the crash happened? How long had Robin been alone in the hospital? Was he even still alive? No, she wasn't going to think like that, she would feel it, she knew she would, there wasn't a chance in hell that he could have died without her feeling something inside. She'd heard stories of women whose husbands were involved in accidents and they felt it from miles away, they knew something had happened to them.

A million thoughts went through her head during the journey which seemed to take hours, finally Graham pulled the car up outside the hospital and she shot out the door without saying anything to him and hurried into the reception, going straight to the front desk, "I'm looking for my boyfriend, he was brought here after a RTA, his name is Robin Locksley," she stated tucking her hair behind her ear as she looked to the woman who seemed to check for something on her computer.

"Yes, are you his next of kin?"

"Yes I am," she nodded.

"Regina Mills?"

"Yes, that's me, I just told you I was his next of kin."

"Do you have a form of ID?"

"Are you serious! My boyfriend could be dead and you are asking me for fucking ID!"

"Regina, calm down," Mal whispered, Regina turned to see that her friend had her purse in her hands and she took it from her quickly before finding her driver's licence and dropping it onto the desk in front of the woman.

"Now can you just tell me where I have to go please," Regina breathed, trying to calm down, as much as she wanted to yell at Mal that she had no clue what she was going through, she knew that the blonde was right, it wouldn't help Robin for her to be thrown out of the hospital for disorderly behaviour.

"He is in surgery at the moment on the forth floor, I can find someone to take you to a room where you can wait for him," the woman nodded as she passed Regina's ID back to her.

"Thank you," she whispered, he was in surgery, but that meant he wasn't dead, that meant there was a chance that she hadn't lost him, that he would be okay, "I'm sorry for snapping at you I just…"

"I understand," the receptionist stopped her, "trust me I'm used to this sort of thing, I hope he pulls through."

"So do I," Regina felt her bottom lip tremble as she looked to the man who came to the desk in order to lead them where they had to go. She found Mal's hand and held onto her tightly as they approached a serious looking ward which housed the operating theatres.

"You can sit here, I'll go find one of the nurses and see if she can fill you in on his condition," the porter stated as he headed off and the two women sat down inside the family room.

Regina stared blankly at the wall which was painted with bright colours that were meant to make people feel happier about the situation they were in, but that certainly was not working in her case, in fact, it was having the opposite effect. She clenched her fist a couple of times before closing her eyes, trying to block out everything around her. She was still clinging to Mal's hand and she hadn't realized how tightly she was squeezing until the woman let out a slight yelp. Regina opened her eyes again and turned to look at her friend, "I'm sorry."

"Don't worry about it," the blonde stated tucking Regina's hair behind her ear, "I'm sure that…"

"Miss Mills?" a nurse asked as she stepped through the doors and found a seat beside Regina who looked up at her with a terrified expression on her face. "As you know, Mr Locksley was involved in a serious traffic accident, when he arrived here he was in an extremely fragile state," Regina swallowed heavily, she could tell, the expression on the woman's face told her everything she needed to know, something was wrong, very, very wrong. "We took him into surgery immediately, but…"

"Is he alive?" Regina whispered.

"Yes, we managed to stabilise him, however, he is still in theatre and it is most likely that he will remain in an induced coma to allow his body to heal. Until he wakes up we can't know the full extent of his injuries."

"So, what do we know?" Regina asked, a very small glimmer of hope emerging within her at the news that Robin was still alive.

"I'm afraid this may be difficult to hear, but we could be looking at permanent paralysis of the lower body, I'm so sorry."

"But he'll live? He'll be alive?" Regina breathed as the tears returned and she stubbornly wiped them away, she wasn't going to cry, not yet, not until she knew everything, she had to be strong for Robin.

"Hopefully he will live, the doctors are going to do everything they can to ensure that. There is more though."

"More? Why, what else could there possibly be?"

"The impact caused your boyfriend to jolt in his seat, this resulted in some facial disfigurement. Mr Locksley wasn't wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash."

"No, that… no, Robin always wears a seatbelt," she shook her head, confused by this latest revelation, "he wouldn't drive without a seatbelt, in fact, he's extremely strict about it, he won't even set off without checking." That was really strange, why wouldn't Robin be wearing a seatbelt? It didn't make sense, why was he speeding in the first place? She knew that he was an extremely cautious and sensible diver, none of this was making any sense whatsoever.

"Well, I'm afraid that he wasn't wearing one this time, maybe he was in a hurry to beat the weather? I don't know."

"No, this isn't right," the more she thought about it, the more her brain couldn't accept it, Robin wouldn't just go home without her, he would check up on her to see whether she needed a ride, he would make sure that she was home safe before he left for the suburbs and he would have most certainly done his belt up.

The nurse didn't seem to be listening to her and handed her a bag of things, "these are his personal effects," she stated, "I will come back later with more news."

Regina nodded and placed the bag down on the seat beside her, it was then that her phone began to ring and she realised that she might not be allowed it on inside the hospital, she scrambled for it and looked at the caller ID seeing that Robin's mom was ringing her. "Mal I need to take this, I'm just going to go outside and call her back," she stated, standing from her seat, she couldn't sit in that little stuffy room any longer anyway.

She reached the exit and hurried out of the door, leaning against the outside wall taking a deep breath before running her hands over her face and trying to gain her composure, the last thing she needed to do was break down on the phone to his mother, even if she wanted to. Once she felt a little more together she found her phone and pressed the call button on Robin's mother's number, there wasn't even one dial tone that passed before the woman answered.

"Regina dear, Robin isn't answering his phone, is everything alright? It's not like him."

Regina cleared her throat as she desperately tried not to cry once again, "Caroline," her voice croaked, "I think you need to fly out here."

"What? Regina, what's going on?"

"An accident, Robin was…" she took a shuddery breath as she continued, "Robin was in a serious accident," she heard the woman's gasp through the phone.

"Oh my goodness! Well is he okay? Are you okay? How? What kind of accident?"

"It was a car accident, I wasn't in the car but Robin… he's in surgery," Regina stated, "it's really bad, they don't even know if he'll pull through," she confessed, her voice catching on her words. "Please Caroline, you need to be here."

"I'm on my way! Regina darling you aren't alone, are you?"

"No, you just… Robin needs you here and so do I."

"I'll be on the next flight to New York I promise you, I just hope I can get to you because of the snow."

"Please…"

"I'm coming, and Regina…"

"Yes?"

"I love you, sweetheart, if Robin wakes up before I get there tell him that I love him as well."

"I will," Regina whispered.

Once she was off the phone with Robin's mother she went back into her contacts and found her own mother's number, she found herself really needed to talk to her, she just wanted her mom to tell her that everything was going to be okay. She waited for her to pick up and as usual, it didn't take long, "hello darling, is everything alright?"

"Hmm," Regina nodded, "yeah, um, I was just checking in, making sure that you and daddy are safe indoors."

"Of course, we are sweetheart, no one is crazy enough to go out in this weather if they don't have to."

"Yes, you're right," Regina agreed, closing her eyes as she listened to her mother's voice, "mom can you just talk to me please, tell me about your day."

"Well, it's not as though I've done much," Cora chuckled before her laughter stopped, "Regina is something going on? You don't sound yourself."

"It's... Robin," she'd been about to tell her mother that it was fine again, but it really wasn't and she didn't think she had the effort to lie.

"What? What's going on?" She asked worry clearly present in her voice, but Regina didn't think she could say it a second time, she felt like she had something stuck in her throat as her eyes burned, "talk to me, Regina. Tell me what happened sweetie."

"I can't even say it," Regina breathed, "he's hurt… really badly hurt. He was in his car and..."

"Regina are you okay? Are you hurt?!"

"No not me, Robin," she cried allowing the tears to flood her cheeks as she sobbed into the phone, she just couldn't hold it back anymore, ever since she'd seen the crash she'd wanted to just cry her eyes out and now she couldn't stop the tears.

"Darling I'm coming to you now okay, I'm on my way. Henry! Get the car!"

"No mom it's... snowing you... you shouldn't be..."

"I am coming to you now Regina, text me which hospital you are at and I'll be with you soon. Are you alone now?"

"No, Mal is here," she sniffled.

"Okay, I have Mal's number, if I call her can she tell me what is going on?"

"Yes," Regina whispered kicking the snow, "Lenny he's… he's at home," she stated, only just thinking about her cat who hadn't been fed yet. "I need to call Mrs Lucas and see if she can..."

"Regina let me handle everything, you just sit down and try to calm down a little, it isn't good for you getting so stressed."

Her mother was right and she knew it, she just didn't want to admit it and she didn't know how to calm down, how were you supposed to calm down when faced with such a situation? "Okay."

"I love you sweetheart, I'll be there soon."

"I love you too," Regina whispered, trying to reign in the last of the tears.

In truth she was devastated, not for herself, but for Robin, she doubted that he would take well to the news that his life was never going to be the same again and that he was going to have to be dependent on someone else for a long time until he got a handle of things for himself. Regina would do it, she would be there for him, she didn't want anyone else to do it, she wanted to look after him, she would sell her company if she had to, but she had to put him first, he came before anything else in her life.

She slid down the wall so that she was sat on the floor, the snow was falling on her but she couldn't feel the cold, she buried her head in her hands as she tried to block everything out, she just wanted her brain to stop, she wanted to stop the thoughts, stop thinking the worst but she couldn't, it was all she could think about and it was soul destroying.

She was briefly aware of a hand on her shoulder but ignored it, she didn't care, didn't want to acknowledge anything, someone was calling her name over and over, but she didn't want to listen, didn't want to go back inside, because if she went inside, that meant she would have to fully face what was waiting in there. She was too scared, terrified to find the full reality of the situation, what she already knew was awful enough.

Regina felt someone wrap their arms around her and she finally opened her eyes, looking up to see Graham of all people trying to help her up from the floor, he'd draped his jacket over her shoulder and was now holding onto her. "What are you doing?" she asked, her voice hoarse from crying.

"I just want to help you," he stated honestly, "come on, let me get you inside."

"I don't want to go inside with you," she spat harshly shrugging his coat off and standing up, "do you really think I want any help from you?! I hate you Graham! And the best man I have ever known, the man I love, could be paralysed for life whilst you get to walk around here like you did nothing wrong!"

"Shit, Regina I just wanted to help you, but…"

"Help me?! You didn't want to help me when we were together, did you?! In fact, I distinctly remember feeling the most alone I have ever felt whilst we were a couple! You were always so self-centred! And then when I finally decided to tell you the truth about how I felt, you kick something in my face and scar me!"

"Regina calm down," he stepped away holding his hands out, "you…"

"I hate you! I wish it had been you in that car, not Robin! He doesn't deserve it! He doesn't deserve to be hurt like that!" Regina screamed, losing it completely as she began smacking him, using her fists to hit his chest.

"Regina stop!" He yelled, grabbing her wrists and holding them tightly, stopping her from attacking him any further, "stop!"

"Let me go! Graham! Let me go!" she struggled against his hold, trying to wriggle free and hit him some more, take all her frustration out on him and hurt him.

"Get off her!" Mal's voice boomed as she came towards them from the entrance, he dropped her wrists immediately and backed away from them as the blonde woman wrapped her arms around Regina, "what were you doing to her?!"

"I was trying to stop her from hitting me! She attacked me! Crazy woman!"

"She isn't in the right headspace to deal with your shit!"

"I just wanted to help her, I wasn't trying to hurt her I just…"

"I don't need your help, stay away from me," Regina breathed looking up from where she was tucked into Mal and realising what she had actually just done. She took a shuddery breath and shook her head, "I'm sorry, I don't know what happened, I… I snapped and it was wrong of me," she confessed before walking in the direction of the hospital, pulling Mal with her, she just wanted Robin to come out of surgery so that she could sit by his bed and hold his hand so tight, whilst begging him to pull through, to stay with her.

"Thanks for your concern Graham, but I doubt you were the right person to try and comfort her," Mal rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, I get that, you better go watch her, make sure she doesn't beat up some poor doctor."

Mal offered him a curt nod in response before following after her friend, catching up with her as she headed for the family room they had been left in beforehand. Regina was sat emptying the bag holding Robin's personal effects, she grabbed his phone first and pressed the home button, the screen was a little smashed but she could make out the lock screen picture of the two of them cuddling up with Lenny, there was also a list of missed calls from Regina, a couple of texts from her and the voicemail she left, along with a few messages and a missed call from his mother. "Mal, this is strange."

"Why? Maybe he was driving and couldn't look at his phone."

"He wasn't driving all day though. Wouldn't he have checked his phone when he came out of his meeting with Gold? It doesn't make sense, none of this is adding up."

"Maybe he was rushing to get somewhere, you don't know what was happening Regina," Mal sighed and found her hand bringing her to sit beside her on the couch, "I think we need some distraction don't you? How about, I go get us some coffees and you start looking at this edition of VOUGE I just got this morning," she passed her the magazine and Regina looked down at the issue with a sigh before nodding, maybe a distraction was what she needed.

She flicked through it looking at the different outfits, but they didn't bring her the joy they usually did, she physically didn't feel anything at all. She dumped the magazine down on the seat beside her and pulled her legs up to tuck against her, allowing her head to rock backwards as she closed her eyes, she tried to imagine his voice, she just wanted to hear him talk to her, for him to tell her that everything was going to be okay and that he would take care of it, but no, instead she had no clue what was going on or how he was doing and it was starting to make her antsy.

"I brought the coffee, have you found a… oh so we're not doing that, that's fine," Mal sat back down again, "your mom said that she's about twenty minutes away so…"

"Why is he still in surgery?! It should be over by now, he should be resting not laid on an operating table being cut up," Regina growled, they had already been in the damned hospital for over an hour and there still hadn't been any more news on his condition. She had no clue how his surgery was going and for all she knew he could have died on the operating table.

"Regina, the doctors are doing what they have to okay, and they know what they are doing I promise you."

"Maybe I should have demanded specialists, what if they could do more? What if…"

"Regina, stop it with the what-ifs and let them do their job," the blonde took her hand gently and squeezed it, "I can chase an update for you if you want, but I'm sure that they will come and tell you if there are any changes."

"Yes, I suppose they will," she whispered.


About half an hour later the door to the family room opened and Cora Mills rushed into the room followed closely Henry, Regina looked up from the latest edition of her magazine that Mal had been looking at, they went over each detail in order to distract her somewhat, that had seemed to be a little more successful than looking through VOGUE had been. "Darling!"

"Mom," Regina cast her a watery smile as she stood from her seat and hugged her mother, "daddy," she closed her eyes as he joined in on the hug. They all hugged one another as Regina buried her face against their shoulders.

"It's alright darling, we're here, it's okay," Cora ran her hands over her daughter's back comfortingly, "have you heard any more news?"

"Not yet."

"I'm just going to pop out," Mal stated kissing Regina's cheek lightly as she slipped out of the room leaving the brunette with her parents. They all moved to sit down on the couch with Regina sandwiched between them.

"How are you holding up sweetheart?" Henry asked his hand coming to gently brush through her curls that had broken through due to the snow getting her hair wet.

"I'm trying, I don't know how well I'm succeeding. Did you get hold of Mrs Lucas about Lenny?"

"Yes, she's fed him and taken him to her house for the time being because we didn't know how long you might be away, don't worry though, she's taking care of him."

"Oh I know she will be," Regina forced a smile, she was glad that her cat was being looked after, "thank you for coming here, you really didn't…"

"Nonsense we wanted to be here for you, you need your friends and family around you at times like these," Cora hugged her once again and Regina struggled to keep it together.

"Mom what if he never wakes up?" she whispered, "what if I never get to see him or talk to him again?"

"You can't think like that Regina."

"They already told me that it's most likely that he'll be paralysed for life, what does that mean for us? What does that mean for our plans for the future?" she choked back the tears as she thought about what might happen, would they be able to have those babies they had talked about? What would happen to that aspect of their relationship? What if the accident changed him, what if he wasn't the man he once was? "It's all I can think about and it won't stop! Please make it stop," she sobbed as she dropped her head to her mother's lap and cried against her, feeling the older woman's fingers running through her hair.

She could safely say that she had never cried so much in her life.


Another hour passed before the nurse came in, she knocked on the door briefly before coming into the room and seeing four sets of eyes trained on her, "well?" Regina spoke first, "what's happening?"

The nurse took a deep breath as she sat down on the couch opposite her, "he's out of surgery, but he is in a coma, unfortunately, there hasn't been an improvement of any kind in regard to the condition of his spinal cord. We believe that, in time, the rest of him will recover. Although paralysis looks extremely likely, he does have some brain activity which is good."

Regina nodded, she supposed that was something they had to be thankful, the fact that his brain was still functioning. "So, he'll live?"

"We have every reason to think so, yes. However, that doesn't mean that he's out of the woods yet, there have been similar cases where the patient hasn't responded well to the treatment and their condition can deteriorate, I sincerely hope that this doesn't happen but…"

"I think what Regina needs to concentrate on is the fact that her boyfriend is alive," Cora stated cutting the woman off mid-sentence, "the rest of it she can worry about later, there is no need to be adding to her concerns."

"Yes, you are right."

"Will I be able to see him?" Regina asked immediately, "I want to sit with him."

The nurse nodded, "yes, once he is settled in his room you will be able to come and sit with him, however I must warn you that it will be a massive shock at first, as I told you earlier, Mr Locksley does have severe damage to his facial tissue and this may be distressing. Just know that the medication we are giving him will be making sure that he feels none of the pain."

Regina swallowed nervously, she'd forgotten about that aspect of his injuries, but now just thinking about it made her shudder, she was scared to go in there, to see the extent of what had happened to him. She knew it wouldn't change the way she felt for him, she would still love him the same and stand by him no matter what happened. "Will you come get me once I can sit with him please?"

"Of course," the nurse smiled before leaving the room.

Regina slumped against her mother, " it's going to be bad isn't it," she whispered as she closed her eyes.

"It could be darling, I think you probably need to prepare for the worst," she tucked her hair behind her ear gently.

"I know. Caroline should be with us, she should be able to sit with him as well," Regina stated worriedly thinking about his mother who was probably still waiting for her flight over from England.

They only had to wait a little while before the nurse came back, "Regina, you can come through now, only two people are allowed in the room to visit for the time being so…"

"Mom, come with me," Regina grasped her mother's hand, holding it tight as she stood from her seat, picking up her phone from where it had dropped out of her pocket. "I'm so scared," she breathed, her heart felt as though it were going to explode out of her chest and she was struggling to breathe regularly as panic engulfed her.

"It'll be alright," Cora reassured, placing a kiss against her daughter's temple as she gently tugged her arm and walked to the exit. Regina followed her, clinging to her tightly. She didn't know if she was strong enough to do this, she felt as though she might throw up. They stopped in front of a door to a room and she took a deep breath trying to compose herself.

"Can I have a minute please?"

"Of course," the nurse nodded.

Regina tried to pull herself together and stop her entire body from shaking, she buried her head in her hands, her breath coming out in rasps. "Darling breathe," Cora instructed, "look at me! Regina," she took her hands gently, making her look at her, but it didn't really do much to settle her nerves, she just shook her head and began to gasp for air.

She knew she was having a panic attack and that she needed to calm down, but she just didn't think that she could, she saw the nurse hurry over to her, she made her sit on the floor leaning her back against the wall as a way for her to ground herself. "Regina, you're okay, follow me, breath in, and out. In, and out."

Regina followed her instructions and felt her heartbeat begin to even out as she closed her eyes, "I don't think I can do it," she breathed, "I don't think I can go in there. I can't bear to see him that way, see him hurt the way he is, it will break me," she looked up at her mother with tear-filled eyes, "I don't think I…"

"Regina, of course you can, when he wakes up he is going to want you by his side," Cora offered her hand to her daughter and Regina took it as her mother helped her up from the ground, "you are the bravest person I know and I know that you want to be in there with Robin and that you want to be there for him when he wakes up."

"You're right," Regina sighed, wiping her eyes as she steadied herself feeling a little bit like she had herself together, her emotions had been all over the place. She took a deep breath and reached for the door handle, just as she was about to open it they heard a commotion down the other end of the corridor. "What's that?" Regina asked turning to look in the direction of the noise, her eyes landing on the form of someone extremely familiar running towards them.

"Regina!"

"Oh my god!" she gasped, her eyes widening as she froze to the spot, nearly getting knocked over by the force of the person pulling her into their embrace. "How is this possible?" she cried, her arms immediately going up to hold onto him, squeezing him tightly as she buried her face against his chest, "Robin!" she sobbed, her tears soaking through his shirt, shock vibrating through her body as she hugged him as though it were the last time she would ever be able to.

She pressed her ear against his chest, listening to his heart beating; she closed her eyes and focused on the feeling as he brushed his fingers through her hair comfortingly, "it's okay, I've got you, I'm okay." Robin kissed the top of her head as he held her, his hands making their way to her back as he rubbed it over the material of her jacket.

"What's going on?" she asked, pulling back to look at him, her eyes scanning over every inch of his body, her fingers following as she touched him all over, checking for any sign of an injury, one that she wasn't going to find. "Are you okay? You aren't hurt?" she breathed looking into his eyes.

"No, I'm not hurt, I'm fine, everything is okay now. I'm so sorry you went through this Gina, I dread to imagine what you were thinking," he whispered, his hands coming to cup her cheeks as he gently wiped away the tears that were silently falling.

She looked into his eyes before crashing her lips against his, kissing him with everything she had, just wanting to know that this was real and that she wasn't dreaming. "I don't understand," she mumbled, her mouth still pressed lightly to his as her hand clutched to the material of his shirt. She pulled back only just noticing that he was soaking wet with melting snowflakes in his hair.

"I promise I will explain everything," he stated nudging her nose with his.

"I'm sorry, forgive me for intruding," the nurse cleared her throat, "if you're Robin Locksley, then who on earth is the patient in there?"


Ooooh! All will be explained in the next chapter when we see Robin's POV!
