A/N: Thank you for all your reviews, I will definitely be taking most of your requests! They motivate me to keep writing, I also want to point out that I did receive a rather hard review to stomach in a sense, saying I should stop writing because "9 year olds have a better grasp of writing then I do." However, I don't really care, It makes me happy so I'm not going to let you or anyone else tell me to stop doing something that makes me happy. I also just want to tell you that somethings should be left unsaid, you could really screw up a person with things like that. Anyways, Hope you all Enjoy this new chapter!
Xoxo, RM
Ella sighed and sat on the closest chair and held her head in her hands.
"I don't know." She breathed, Regina knelt to the ground and rested her hand on Ella's knee.
"Clearly it seems that you are Ella-"
"No, that's just one of the tests, that one was the only one that came out positive." Ella explained looking at her
"Was it the first test you took?" Regina asked, Ella nodded, "And the other tests came out negative?" Ella nodded again
"How many did you take after the positive one?" Regina asked
"Two more, they came out negative. I just wanted to make sure that they were accurate but then it came out negative then I tried another one and it came out negative too."
"Okay, usually pregnancy tests aren't wrong but considering you took three and one came out positive it must have been defective."
"That means I'm not pregnant right?" Ella asked
"Like I said it's not completely certain, we should go to the doctor's to check it out, how about that?" Regina asked
"We?" Ella asked
"Of course, I would never want you to deal with something like this alone." Regina said
"God, why can't you be my new mom already." Ella whispered
"What was that?" Regina asked
"Nothing." Ella said with a small smile, "Maybe we should do the appointment back at home."
"Yes, I know exactly who can help us out with this situation." Regina said
"You do?"
"Yes, so let's not stress this right now, let's take things step by step, the first thing is going to meet your father at dinner."
"Tink, shoot, I need to tell her the same thing I told you about me being a Locksley."
"Don't worry, I can tell her about it. I have a small dilemma." Regina said, leading Ella out the doors to the common rooms.
"That would be?" Ella asked
"Well the women at the front desks thinks I'm Mrs. Locksley and-"
"She didn't give you the other room keys, and you're stuck in my dad's suite." Ella said, Regina nods, a blush creeping up her to her cheeks, Ella laughs
"You can have my room, I'm sure Jax won't mind me sharing with him." Ella said, Regina looked at her.
"Don't worry I'm not going there with Jax but one can hope." Ella said with a mischievous grin
"Ella." Regina said
"I'm just kidding mama bird." Ella said laughing
Ella and Regina were the last to arrive to dinner, everyone else had ordered, Robin took the liberty of ordering for Regina and Ella, which made Regina blush as soon as she found out.
"Hi little one." Ella said kissing Roland's forehead, he was preoccupied coloring.
"Uncle Jones!" Ella said as soon as she met his eyes, she ran over and he stood up hugging her and kissing her forehead.
"Ah there's my god daughter." Killian said
"Goddaughter?" Tink mumbled, how could Killian not have told her about any of this.
"Hey Tink." Ella said winking at her, Tink chuckled
"Hey hobo." Tink said
"Hobo?" Robin asked
"Long story." Ella said taking her seat next to Roland and Jax, next to Roland was Robin then Regina, Tink and Killian. Killian loved sitting next to Jax, he always liked pestering the young lad.
"So, Elizabeth." Robin said wiping his mouth, "How do you know Miss Mills?" Robin asked, Ella swallowed her food and looked at Regina who gave her a nod.
"If you please call me Ella father that would be much appreciated." Ella said
"My apologies, Ella."
"You want the truth?" Ella asked
"Of course, Ella." Robin said
"Well, when I ran away from home, Miss Mills was nice enough to let me stay with her and Tink in their lovely home." Ella explained, she told the whole story minus the Jax incident and other details that would likely upset her father.
"Interesting." Robin said, "So Regina and Tink were roommates, your uncle jones was in a long distance relationship with her and somehow none of us have met her until this very moment." Robin sums up
"Pretty much." Ella said taking a sip of her water, Robin nodded, he was about to change the subject when he saw a necklace around Ella's neck and what looked to be a ring.
"What's on your neck?" Robin asked, Ella looked down and toyed with the necklace, Jax rested his hand on her knee and nodded.
"Well that's more news I guess." Ella said laughing nervously
"Ella." Killian said sternly, Tink and Regina both took sips of their drinks, Robin looked from Regina to Tink who were clearly trying to avoid eye contact.
"Do you both know about this?" Robin asked, Tink and Regina looked at each other.
"Well-" Regina started to say
"It's not a big deal dad." Ella said
"Not a big deal?" Jax asked, Ella looked at him
"Jax I didn't mean it like that, it is a big deal but-"
"But what?" Robin asked
"Yeah Ella but what?" Killian added
"Whoa there calm down fathers. Think of this necklace with an engagement ring like a promise ring okay?"
"Promise ring?" Killian said stifling a laugh, Robin did the same
"Killian, Robin!" Tink and Regina said in unison, Jax face reddened and stared at the floor
"Jax, it was a very big and loving gesture, for being so young I am impressed by your commitment." Regina said
"Exactly, not many men can do what you have done, you get major brownie points." Tink added, Robin and Killian sat there in silence embarrassed
"Thank you." Jax said grinning at Ella who chuckled, they all talked throughout the whole night until closing time.
"Daddy." Roland said yawning
"Yes?"
"I'm tired."
"Okay, my boy, say goodnight to everyone and we'll go back to the room." Robin said
"But I wanna go home daddy." Roland whined
"We are going home tomorrow night Roland." Robin answered
"Okay." Roland said frowning, he looked at Ella. "Cece I wanna sleep with you."
"Of course you can, you can sleep in between Jax and I alright?" Ella said, Roland grinned and nodded his head, everyone chuckled. She picked up Roland and said goodnight to everyone, Jax did the same and followed Ella.
"Well." Tink said looking at Killian, "We must retire, but you two can still have fun, the night is still young." Tink said smiling, Regina rose her eyebrow at her.
"I agree, it's only 11 pm, plenty of time for other fun activities." Killian said, "But I must get both of my girls to sleep."
"But-" Regina started to say.
"Bye Gina, see you tomorrow at breakfast, I love you." Tink said, grabbing Killian's hand, Killian saluted Robin and the couple hurried out.
"Well, Miss Mills what would like to do on this lovely night?" Robin asked
"Well, Mr. Locksley I am clearly out of element." Regina said, Robin chuckles
"Yes you are, well, would you care to join me for a frozen treat then?" Robin asks standing up and holding out his elbow.
"Of course." Regina said taking his arm. Robin calls his driver and they are off to Solana to get cold stone ice cream, as soon as they get their treats they head for a local park and sit together on a bench.
"Tell me something you've never told anyone else before." Robin says licking his ice cream, Regina smiles.
"Well, that's a hard one, I've told many things to Tink." Regna said, "But, when I was little I used to vision myself older and all the things I wanted to be and one of those many dreams was to be mayor of a small town."
"Mayor Mills." Robin said giving her a lopsided grin, "Has a nice ring to it don't you think?" Regina laughs
"Yes, I suppose so, so Mr. Locksley what's something you haven't told anyone before?" Regina asked
"I've always wanted to name a daughter Scarlet." Robin admits
"Scarlet?" Regina says
"Yes, when Ella was still in my-" Robin stops, Regina looks at him.
"When Ella was in her mother's stomach I wanted her name to be Scarlet Elizabeth Locksley but her mother insisted that we name her Elizabeth Grace Locksley, Grace came from her side of the family. So if I have the privilege of having another daughter I would name her Scarlet." Robin finishes
"It's a beautiful name." Regina said licking her ice cream, she gets some on her cheek.
"You have something on your cheek Milady." Robin said, Regina reaches for her left cheek, Robin chuckles.
"Allow me." He reaches out and brushes her cheek ever so lightly at that point Regina holds her breathe, Robin locks his eyes with Regina she slowly evens out her breathing. He leans in closer, looking at her as he inches forward, his eyes seeking permission, she slowly nods, he lifts his hand from her cheek to behind her head and inches forward so their noses are just barely touching, Regina inches forward until their lips meet, it isn't a fast kiss at all, he takes time, something Regina loves. Robin pulled back eventually, Regina looked into his eyes, they had darkened with lust, she was sure her eyes mirrored his.
"Robin." Regina whispered, their foreheads touching
"I know." Robin said, "I don't know what you're doing to me Miss. Mills."
"I tend to have the effect on people Mr. Locksley." He chuckles, "Your ice cream is going to melt."
"So is yours Milady." Robin said, "I should have gotten that dark chocolate flavor, it tastes divine." Regina chuckles
"And your strawberry is also just as tasty." Regina said, they both chuckle
"Shall I escort you to your room Regina?" Robin asks
"Sure, I'd love that." Regina said, Robin offers his arm and Regina takes it. They make it back to the hotel and Robin walks her to her room lingering at the door.
"Regina." Robin said right before she walked into her room, she turns around.
"I don't know where I stand with you, nor do I know what I mean to you. All I know is that every time I think of you, I want to be with you." Robin said
"Robin, I-"
"I'm going to be completely honest with you, my life right now is a big mess, and obviously through my daughter you see that. My wife is divorcing me and things are complicated and I know we just met and you work for me, things couldn't be anymore-" Robin starts to say but Regina kisses him to silence him.
"I can wait." Regina whispers just as she pulls back from the heated kiss, "Goodnight Robin."
"Goodnight Milady."
