Alright, so here it is and before you read I want to say that their interaction is both random and planned out, I hope you like it….
XxXxXxXxXxX
Walking out of her kitchen and holding in her right hand a glass full of icy cold lemonade, the former Mayor of the town made it into her living room to find Robin siting on the floor, his elbow resting against her sofa, his chin cradled into the palm of his hand and his eyes focused in the image playing through her TV screen.
He looked fully concentrated in watching trailers for upcoming movies and for a few seconds, all she did was look at him through sparkling brown eyes, her head shaking slightly as she bit on her lips to suppress the smile that wanted to break in her face.
"You started watching the movie without me?"
At her words, his clear blue eyes changed the direction of their attention and he looked at her. "Of course not." He smiled cheekily and if she wasn't mistaken, she saw mischief in his eyes.
Humming and trying to ignore that look, the dark haired expecting mother handed him the glass she served for him and looking away, she searched for the remote to hit the play button.
"So tell me again, of all the movies there are to see in this world, why do you want to see this one?"
Chewing on the corner of her lips, Regina shrugged. "It's not like I want to see it… but out of the options I think it's the better one." And really, for some reason that she didn't want to muse about, she forgot to stop to rent a movie and browsing through the ones Henry still had around, she found that one to be the best one.
It was his girlfriend's and well… it couldn't be as bad as spending the night watching a movie about some creatures called zombies that feed off the brains of people so that they could all become walking dead spooks. That was what Robin wanted to see and clearly she said no.
"What? You don't like vampires?"
"I don't know, I've never met one." Robin said with a shrug before taking a sip of his lemonade, then he put the glass over her coffee table and sent her the same look he did a while ago.
Rolling her eyes and ignoring him once again, Regina made sure that the settings to her home theater were working and then she breathed out.
"Well here's one for you, vampires are like refined zombies. I mean they are dead and they feast off people; the only difference is that vampires can use their brains and thus, they are intelligent creatures."
Looking up at her and fixing all the intensity of his eyes on hers, Robin ran the tip of his tongue over his lips while smirking. The gesture made Regina remember the wonders that tongue could provoke in her body and feeling a heat creeping up her face, she had to look away from him.
"I'm not even going to comment on that Regina… I mean really?" He said, his tone low and raspy.
Blinking a couple of times, Regina just shrugged and said nothing. Ah, but it may be that her mouth refused to utter a word, but her mind was working at full speed.
She just didn't know what was with her that night because really, that right there hadn't been the only time her thoughts had betrayed her so that she would look at Robin as something more than just the friend he was.
It started at dinner, somehow he had convinced her to eat out and while they were eating and talking, she couldn't stop looking at him. At first it was nothing, she was just thinking that even though her friend wasn't the most handsome man she has ever seen, there was certain appeal to him that was hard to ignore.
She particularly liked his eyes and the way they could dig right through her, the way his smile illuminated his whole face and sure, the fact that the aura he carried with him was so strong that she was sure that if she didn't hold on for dear life, he was going to suck her in.
So like she said, at first it was nothing, but after a while the thoughts didn't stop and they just lead her to remember how his hands felt on her skin, how his lips would search for hers in the brims of his passion and how it felt to have him buried so deep inside of her that it was hard to say where she ended and where he began…
Of course, every time her thoughts would drift in that direction she had to remind herself that she and Robin were nothing more than good friends that shared a few intense moments in the past but that was it.
There couldn't be more than that and because of that friendship, they were just going to finish an amicable night watching a movie. It wouldn't be the first time they would do that and if their friendship remained intact, it wasn't going to be the last either.
So there, in essence she had things clear in her mind and what she needed was to relax and put her mind in blank.
"Come here,"
Breaking out of her trance, Regina looked at Robin and saw that he was extending one of his hands to her. She wasn't sure why he was doing that but out of instinct she reached forward anyway and allowed him to engulf her hand with his.
What happened next happened fast; he gave a gentle pull at her and before she knew it, she was sitting in the floor with him, right between his legs as her back rested to his chest.
"Will you be able to get up later on?"
Nodding, Regina chewed on her lips and tried to focus on the movie; but as soon as Robin pulled her closer to him and rested his hands on her pregnant stomach, her attention span was altered.
Now, it wasn't like he hadn't touched her way more intimately than that before, but that particular night and in that specific moment, she could feel as if his hands were burning her skin through the soft fabric of her dress.
The feelings he was provoking called for immediate action so she just tried to kill whatever it was that was going on with her with things that wouldn't allow her libido to take over.
"Do you ever wonder… what would people say when they find out about the baby?"
"What do you mean?"
Shrugging, Regina blew out a breath. "You are a well-liked man around and I am clearly not one of the most popular residents so do you think it will bother you when they start questioning you about this."
Once that was said, she held her breath and waited for a response.
"I guess… that it will bother me if they say bad things about you, otherwise I don't care what they think or say. What about you? Will it bother you?"
"No." She lied. "I'm used to people talking behind my back and looking at me over their shoulders."
"They do that because they don't know you and well, people who don't know you have this… image of you and they react upon it."
"Did you have that so called image when you first meet me?"
"Oh yes, and not only I had the image and first hand experience, but I also had the 'privilege' of being on your bad side since day one so I think I can attest that you are indeed a hard woman. You are hard to get to know and you are definitely hard in all aspects. But once people break through your walls, they realize how amazing you really are."
To that, she didn't say anything, she just mused about his words, relaxed against him and tried to watch the movie.
It wasn't until later on when she felt and heard Robin snorting from his place behind her that she shifted a little, feeling the way his left hand slid closer to her belly bottom to settle there.
"That's ridiculous, a vampire can't have sex and let alone get a woman pregnant."
At his words, Regina tilted her head to the side and smiled. "Leave it to Robin Hood to overanalyze a movie… yeah, what a shocker." And really, for the entire year they had spent as friends, they had seen many a movie and well, for someone who used a magic bow and has seen things that would be beyond the comprehension of the world outside, he was extremely skeptic.
"No, think about it. You said it yourself earlier on, vampires are dead and well, we all know that for a man to have sex he has to have an erection and with no blood running through his veins, that's just impossible."
Shaking her head and pouting her lips, Regina breathed in. The basics of an erection was the last thing in the world she wanted to discuss with him, especially when he was so close that she could feel his breathing brushing against the back of her neck.
"I think she cheated on the vampire with the wolf; that is the only logical explanation for that crap. That's why the baby is growing up so fast; the gestational span for a werewolf is shorter than in humans so yeah, she cheated."
Unable to help it, Regina laughed at his logic. "You are crazy."
"Wait until the baby pops out, when you see it covered in fur and growling, you won't be calling me crazy."
Shaking her head, Regina pushed the inside of her cheek with her tongue and rested her head against his shoulder.
"You should have been a wolf; I mean don't get me wrong here because this is what I wanted, but most of the time I think this pregnancy is taking forever."
And in her mind it really was; she loved knowing that her dream of becoming a mother again was finally coming true, sure, but at the same time she couldn't wait for the baby to be born. First because she wanted to hold him or her in her arms and second because the symptoms of a pregnancy were not fun to deal like at all.
"Why is that?" He whispered in her ear and for a second, she could almost swear that she felt his lips brushing against the skin bellow her ear.
Clearing her throat and not letting her mind play tricks on her, the Raven haired took in a deep breath and then she blew it through her mouth. "Well because for the last few months all I've been feeling is nausea. I can't eat without feeling indigestion, my back is in constant pain and I'm tired all the time. That's without mentioning that I get cramps in my leg when I'm trying to sleep, I get emotional over silly things and I need to constantly visit the bathroom to… okay I think that's enough information for now."
At her unusual ramble, Robin chuckled and she smiled in return.
"Captivating, isn't it? I bet I look just as I feel."
"Well; you may not see it right now but pregnancy is very captivating, and you look great."
Shrugging, Regina quirked her lips. "I guess, I mean if you like your women bloated and moody I think it can be very captivating."
Clicking his tongue to his cheek, Robin dragged both his hands up her stomach and catching her by surprise, he cupped her tender breasts and weighted them in.
"You are getting bigger."
Swallowing hard down, Regina lowered her eyes to his hands and then she blinked slowly. Was he really touching her there?
"Yeah, bigger all over. Thanks for pointing that out too." She forced her voice out, proud that it didn't come up embarrassingly as a high pitched squeal.
Breathing out and squeezing her lightly, Robin brushed his lips to her ear. This time she knew it was real and she parted her lips to breathe out.
"Does this make you feel uncomfortable?"
Regina shook her head, watching as his fingers started to push her dress down so that her bra was exposed for the pleasure of his hands. Not that he went further than that, he just allowed his thumb to trace lazily the outline of her plain cotton brazier.
"I feel a little tender but it is okay."
Lowering his face, Robin breathed into her scent and then as if it was the most natural thing in the world, he pressed his lips to her shoulder and started to kiss a path of fire towards the underside of her jaw.
That right there made her shiver and closing her eyes, she placed her hands over his thighs.
Robin… sometimes, before finding out for sure that she was pregnant, she would lay in bed thinking about him and in many nights she wished he would appear out of thin air to relieve the ache that thinking about him would provoke; but with time those silly thoughts started to fade away until she would only look at the intimate moments they shared as something beautiful that ended up with the amazing gift of her much desired pregnancy…
But now that his hands were touching her and that his tongue was savoring her skin, she couldn't help but to remember the way he could make her tremble with his lovemaking.
Maybe it was all in her crazy pregnant hormones, but the fact was that she could already feel a wetness gathering in her panties as her blood started to boil while it ran through her veins.
"Does it make you feel nervous?"
Not feeling like lying about it, she nodded. "A little." Ah, but more than nervous she felt eager and she didn't want him to stop.
Thankfully he didn't, he just allowed his fingers to play with her hardening nipples through the fabric that covered them and after a while, he lowered one of his hands… letting it slide down to her stomach, lower to her thigh and then right underneath her dress.
Biting her lips hard, Regina closed her eyes and threw her head back against him. By then his hand had found its way to that sweet spot between her legs and he was touching here right there, his fingers exploring her without sneaking inside her panties while his lips and tongue continued to tease the flesh of her neck and shoulders.
"Robin-" She breathed out, not sure what she really wanted to say. To tell him keep going or ask him to stop?
"Shhh, just enjoy it."
With that said, he used his other hand to spread her legs a bit further apart and then he pressed one digit to the small bundle of nerves she kept guarded as her most precious treasure, the same one that ached to be treated accordingly.
Sure, he was doing it through the already soaking fabric of her underwear but that didn't mean that it didn't provoke the desired reaction on her.
Letting out a soft moan, Regina opened her eyes and then closed them again. At that point her blood was boiling, she could even feel it ringing in her ears and she was sure that if his fingers ventured to touch her flesh to flesh, she was going to come undone in a matter of nothing.
She wanted him to touch her like it was meant to be, she needed it.
"Robin, please…"
Not having to be asked twice, Robin slid his hand underneath her panties and his forefinger came to run in slow circles against her nub. It made her tremble and her hands squeezed his thighs.
Now, she wasn't sure how things lead to what was happening, all she knew was that what he was doing felt too damn good. Her head was swimming, her breathing was a bit labored and her entire being was vibrating with his touch.
She wanted more… she needed it.
"You are so wet." He pointed out in a dark whisper and then without more preambles, he pushed a lone long finger through her opening and after thrusting it one time and then two times, Regina gasped brokenly.
He repeated the motion, and little by little she felt her desire reaching its peak. With a suffocated moan, her release began to flow out of her in huge waves and Robin slowly added another finger to his sweet torture.
The sensation was incredible, so intense that her hips automatically darted forward as a way to feel him deeper inside of her and while she rode her climax down, Robin never ceased to kiss her cheek, her neck and her collarbone.
It was amazing… everything about it was amazing and she particularly liked that his fingers never slid out of her, for the longest they just remained there, buried inside of her.
It was only when she was back to her senses that he slowly pulled them out and that was the exact moment that she chose to open her eyes.
Content and more than satisfied, Regina got up to her knees and turning around to face the tattooed man, she went to kiss him.
Robin met her halfway, pressing his lips to hers briefly and then pulling away. "Better?"
Licking her lips, Regina lowered her eyes. Judging by what she could see there, Robin was having certain discomfort inside his pants and she wanted to relieve it.
That was the reason why she lowered her hand to his more than obvious erection and took a secure hold of it. It felt nice, she was yet to feel the pure essence of his manhood in any other place that wasn't inside of her or pressing against her stomach and that night she wanted to feel it in her hand.
Who knew, if things went well and if he wanted it, she could even feel it in her mouth…
"Regina-" He said in a warning, grabbing her hand to push it away from his erection.
Frowning, the dark haired looked into his clouded blue eyes and blinked slowly.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing is wrong; you just don't have to do that." He said, returning her stare intently.
"You don't want me to?" She asked, confused.
Snorting, Robin closed his eyes for a second and then he opened them to keep looking at her. "It's not that I don't want it, but I didn't do what I did just so you could return the favor. I just wanted to make you feel good."
Feeling her heart clenching and her breathing halting, Regina backed away until she was sitting in front of him. "Favor?"
Chuckling and running her hand through her hair, Regina closed her eyes and shook her head. Favor… she hated that word because in many occasion she believed that he granted her the favor of getting her pregnant because she asked him and that was it.
Now, months later he was doing her another favor by…
Opening her eyes before finishing her thoughts, Regina started talking again. "And what made you think I needed that kind of favor? Do I look needy; did I look like I needed a pity hand fuck before I could finish watching the movie?"
Opening his eyes as wide as he could, Robin shook his head. He probably noticed her obvious change of mood and he automatically knew she was upset. "Regina, that's not what I meant." He said, trying to reach for her.
But before he could touch her, she got to her feet with an agility that surprised her and turning around she started to walk away. "I know what you meant so save it."
With that said, she blindly made it into her bathroom and locking the door behind her back, she pressed her back to the door and cradled her face in her hands.
She could feel her eyes watering behind her closed eyelids and she tried to breathe evenly to prevent the tears to fall.
"Regina." Came the voice of Robin through the other side and she heard him trying to open the door. "Come on, open the door."
Shaking her head even though she knew he couldn't see her, she opened her eyes and wiped angrily at her tears.
She just couldn't believe she was so weak for him… that she almost begged him to help her reach her release only to have him turn her down minutes later.
"Talk to me. Please."
Clearing her throat and blinking her tears away, she lifted her head up high to speak. "I want to be alone. Just leave…"
For the longest while there was only silence, but then she heard him trying to open the door once again. "I'm not going to leave until we talk.
"I don't want to talk to you right now."
"Then I'll wait here all night long. You have to get out of there eventually."
Closing her eyes again, Regina smacked her head lightly against the door and breathed out. She knew Robin, and she knew that if he said that he was going to stay there waiting, then he was going to stay there waiting. He was stubborn like that.
Walking ahead to the faucet so she could splash water to her face, she looked at her reflection through the mirror and then she stripped down naked.
She wanted to take a shower, before walking out that door she needed to feel clean of his touch and the sooner she did that, the better.
Once that was done, she grabbed a towel and wrapping it around her body, she opened the door.
Robin was waiting there like she had expected, standing right in front of her.
"I don't really want to talk about this now so just let me be." After saying that, she tried to walk pass him; if he wanted to stay there all night then fine, but she was not going to talk. She was going to bed.
But before she could even take two steps, he grabbed the back of her head and easily guided her face to his.
It was a brief kiss, probably shorter than the one they shared back in her living room. "Then don't talk, but you won't shut me out." And then, he kissed her again, only that this time he slid his tongue deep into her mouth to kiss her properly.
Unable to help it, she placed her hands to his chest and allowed him to kiss her, her own tongue moving against his as he wrapped his arm around her.
She didn't know how it happened, but with that kiss he put her anger in jeopardy and it wasn't until much, much later that the subject was really discussed.
