I don't want to think about how long it has been since I updated, I'm sooo sorry. I would like to thank you all for the support and feedback you give me with this fic, it means the world to me! :D

I really hope it's worth the wait, there are some slight M moments in this chapter, nothing heavy but we are slowly moving in that direction. ;)

Please let me know what you think because I am really worried about this chapter. *hides in corner

Regina took his book from him and moved off the bed, going to find a coin in her purse before she jumped back up onto the bed again, pulling her sweatshirt down to cover her upper things as she sat on her feet beside Robin, her fingers coming to play with the fabric of his pants before showing him the quarter that was in her hand.

"Well that's a particularly shiny coin you have there, why you showing me?" he chuckled, touching her fingers gently.

She rolled her eyes at him before throwing it up in the air, "heads or tails?" she asked, waiting for him to call one as she caught it in her right hand and flipped it onto the back of her left. She looked up at him expectantly as she covered the coin with her other hand so that he couldn't see which side it had landed on. "Pick one any one."

"It's a hard decision, one that can't be rushed," he joked pretending to think about it before nodding, "heads."

"Okay," she grinned lifting her hand as they both looked to see what the coin read, "tails," she cheered triumphantly dropping the coin onto the bedside table as Robin reached out and pulled her closer to him, he rested on his knees, his hands coming to her hips as his eyes met with hers she flicked her dark hair over her shoulder and cleared her throat trying not to let him know how much he was affecting her with his touch, "so then Mr Locksley the choice is yours, truth or dare?"

His hand moved to her hair as he placed it back over her shoulder so that it flowed freely down to her waist, covering her breasts in ebony waves, "your hair feels like silk."

"You are ignoring the question at hand," she uttered, watching him as he simply played with the ends of her hair, twirling it around his fingers. He was so gentle with it that she could barely feel what he was doing, it slightly tickled as it pulled a little, she found herself staring at him, he was entranced by it as though he had never seen or touched hair before, "Robin," she whispered, she hadn't been meaning to be that quiet it had just come out that way, as usual his actions were affecting her.

"Regina, look at me," he replied shuffling even closer causing her breath to catch in her throat as she moved her eyes from watching his hands to his eyes, she pulled her bottom lip between her teeth and shuffled slightly, she wasn't used to this, wasn't used to maintaining eye contact with someone, it wasn't something she was ever really all that comfortable with, even with her mother. Robin was apparently a whole other story, she couldn't take her eyes from his, "you're beautiful."

She felt her cheeks heat up as she averted her gaze looking back at his hands as she had been before.

"Hey," he breathed, "you're blushing."

"You make me blush," she muttered all of a sudden feeling slightly shy under his gaze, he made her feel beautiful, more so than anyone she had ever met, it was the things he said to her, the way he looked at her, his little touches, all of those things combined making her feel as though she was his everything which was, if she thought about it, a silly prospect because she wasn't, she was just a girl and this was so, so new to them, it didn't stop her from feeling special though.

His fingers found her chin gently as he made her look up at him, "blushing just makes you even more beautiful," he chuckled shaking his head, "not that I know how that is possible because you are without doubt the most stunning woman I have seen in my life."

She gasped and moved closer so that her lips were hovering mere millimetres away from his, their eyes locked, she could feel his breath ghosting across her face, she knew he was about to kiss her and giggled.

"What?" he grinned stroking her cheek.

"Nice try Locksley but you aren't getting out of our game that easily," she quipped pulling away from him and looking at him expectantly.

"I didn't think that I could Mills," Robin smirked dropping his hand from her face and sitting up straighter.

"Good, so then, truth or dare?" he had nearly distracted her completely from what they had previously been doing and she wasn't sure if he had done it on purpose or if he had simply become caught up in the moment like she had.

"I think I will start easily and go with truth."

"Chicken," she laughed, shuffling somewhat into a different position so that her legs were crossed in front of her and she could rest her elbows on her knees as she thought of a good question to ask him, "okay, when was the first time you noticed me?" she whispered, not really knowing what the answer was going to be.

"First time I noticed you," he grinned and she rose her eyebrows at him.

"What?" That was a worrying look, as though it had been something embarrassing on her part which was most likely since she was the girl that everyone at school seemed to enjoy teasing the shit out of.

"I'm going to have to say the time in Freshman year when Arthur Pendragon pulled your pony tail and you turned around and said…" Robin laughed clearing his throat before continuing and deciding to mock her fourteen-year-old self's tone of voice, "why don't you take your grubby little mitts of me and go pull someone else's hair because I'm not interested in you."

"I didn't talk like that!" she squealed bursting into a fit of giggles as she remembered when that happened.

"Yeah you did," he grinned, "then he grabbed your hair and said…"

"Make me," Regina rolled her eyes.

"Yep and you being the little firecracker you were grabbed his hand, pushed it away, stood up and pulled his chair out from under him before moving to sit at the back of the classroom as he flailed about on the ground."

"He didn't bother me again," she smirked proudly, glad that the teacher had stepped out of the classroom during that particular incident otherwise she had a feeling that she would have been in a whole world of trouble.

"Do you know I was so close to standing up and making him and then seeing you do it yourself, well that was something else. So yes that was when I first noticed you Regina Mills and I have been noticing you ever since."

Her mouth dropped open in surprise, to say she was shocked was an understatement, she hadn't been expecting it, it had caught her off guard. How had it taken them four years to get to this point? They had both liked each other since freshman year and she didn't want to think about all the time they had wasted being apart. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?" she whispered.

"I believe that is another question and as far as I am aware the rules of truth or dare permit either one question or one dare per round," he grinned, stroking her knee, his fingertips lightly caressing her skin. "So, milady I believe it is your turn, truth or dare?"

"Well I think I will follow in your footsteps and go with truth," she mumbled glaring at him playfully for dismissing her question, she really wanted to know the answer but she had a feeling that it would probably be the same as the one she would give for that question, she didn't think he would have been interested in someone like her.

"And I will follow in yours by asking you, when was the first time you noticed me?"

"No repeats of questions," she shook her head.

"That was not stated in the rules before we started this game," he laughed shaking his head, "surely all rules must be declared beforehand and not during otherwise we are just making them up as we go along."

"You can't just repeat my question."

"Fine, when did you, Regina Mills, notice me for the first time?"

"You just flipped the question!"

"Yes, but technically it isn't the same question so you have to answer," he cast her a smug smile, showing off his dimples as his blue eyes twinkled in the sunlight that was shining through the curtains working to affect her immensely. He had answered his question so she should just bite the bullet and answer hers, right?

"Freshman year," she shrugged, not giving him anymore than that.

"Hey, that isn't a proper answer," he protested, shoving her knee gently.

"It answered the question didn't it, you should have been more specific with your copied question."

"Come on Gina, I want to know, when?"

"Fine, it was freshman year, we had literally just started school and were in that phase where everyone works out which category you fall into, you were of course in the popular clang, whilst I was in the freakish nerd gang. I think it might have been the second week of school and the jocks were picking on this kid, throwing him on the ground," she cleared her throat, "I felt sorry for him but there wasn't much I could do, I mean…"

"You're pretty small, I probably wouldn't recommend trying to go up against a group of jocks," he chuckled.

"Exactly, then that was when you came along, you were part of their group, their leader and I thought shit this kid is going to get the absolute crap kicked out of him by some high school bullies, but you helped him up, dusted him off and sent him on his way and that's when I realised you weren't like the rest of them, you were kind." She breathed, "so yeah, that's when I first noticed you, standing up for other people, as usual."

"I like to think that is one of my better qualities," he laughed, tucking her hair behind her ear but still making sure it fell down the front of her body. His touch caused her to tremble in desire, they had both been hung up on each other for four years without even knowing about it.

"I wish we had got together sooner," she sighed.

"Maybe it's all about timing, you don't know, it might not have worked out back then, maybe we were too young, we weren't mature enough, at least now we know we are," he cupped her cheek lovingly, "you were definitely worth the wait Regina, I would wait forever if I had to, not that I want to because I've waited long enough but you know, that isn't the point."

"You don't have to wait any longer, we can be together now," she whispered, pressing her forehead against his as she bumped his nose, "maybe not in every way, but we can be honest with one another, talk about our feelings and our dreams without being afraid."

He carefully ran his thumb across her ear, "I'm definitely not afraid," he breathed pressing a kiss to her lips tenderly before pulling away and tracing her lips, "how could anyone be afraid of this?"

"Truth or dare?" she muttered against his thumb.

"Truth," he replied shuffling even closer to her.

"Again, are you ever going to pick dare?" she rose her eyebrows, she was practically on his lap as she snuggled closer to him.

"Yes, I just think I might like to see you do a dare first."

"Fine, so my question to you would be…" she thought about it for a moment and came up with a daring question which she didn't know if she should ask or not, but then again, she wanted to know the answer and what better way to find out that in a game of truth or dare? "Have you ever…" she could feel her cheeks heating up.

"Go on."

"Have you ever touched yourself thinking about me?" she rushed awkwardly looking down and playing with the edge of her sweater.

"Yes," he nodded chuckling, clearly finding it amusing, "quite a few times actually."

"Seriously?" her eyes shot back up again to meet his, slightly shocked that he had answered so easily. She cast him a sideways smile before pulling her bottom lip between her teeth.

"Yes, so your turn, truth or dare?"

"Truth," she wasn't going to give in that easily, she knew he wanted her to choose dare and therefore she wasn't going to in only the second round, maybe she would in the third, but not right now, as soon as he asked his question though she regretted her choice.

"When you've been thinking about me, have you ever touched yourself?" he smirked, "and before you start it isn't the same question as it is worded differently, again, there are no rules against that."

She really should have known that he would have asked her that question and she should have chosen dare, that way she wouldn't have to admit something so awkward because of course she had. "That is a very presumptuous question, that implies that I have touched myself at all, or even thought about you for that matter."

"Have you?"

"Yes."

A grin played on his features as he rose his eyebrows and that was when she realised what she had just said, her mouth dropping open, she couldn't believe what she had done, she was so embarrassed.

"Yes, to which?" he questioned.

"Yes, to have I thought about you," she muttered looking down and trying to count the amount of little flowers in a certain square of the patchwork quilt.

"And the other part?"

"That too," she mumbled under her breath, so apparently, he had been right earlier that day when he had said payback was a bitch, she was definitely being bit on the ass by her crude question. She was cringing so hard, it was something she would never admit to anyone, it embarrassed her even though she knew there was probably nothing to be embarrassed about she still was.

"Did it feel good?"

"I don't believe that was part of the question," she whispered looking up at him, the blush which had risen on her cheeks yet again probably telling him everything he wanted to know. The answer was yes it had, it always did when it was him she pictured and she didn't think she had even done it thinking about anyone else, not that it was a common occurrence for her, just when she was in that kind of mood.

"Fine," he groaned, "before you ask, I want another truth."

"Okay then, did it feel good?"

"I knew you were going to ask that," he laughed, tucking her hair behind her ear, "and to answer your question yes, it felt better than good, but I have a feeling that…"

"Dare!" she shouted, wriggling nervously as she stuck her tongue out at him, she knew what he was going to say had she said truth and it made her stomach flip flop because yes, it had most definitely felt good for her to imagine him make her orgasm.

"Dare?" he grinned cheekily and she immediately regretted her decision, again, wishing she had decided to just brave it and tell him her truth.

"Yes," she held her head up confidently trying to mask the nervousness she was actually feeling.

"Okay then," he scratched his stubble in thought, "I dare you to sunbathe on the roof in your underwear."

"On the roof?" her eyes widened, "what if someone sees me? What if I fall off? Robin, it…"

"You don't have to, if you don't feel comfortable with it I'll think of something else."

She pouted at him before finding the hem of her sweatshirt and pulling it over her head, she dropped it to the ground consciously covering her breasts before looking up at him, "I'm no chicken," she smiled, standing up and adjusting her purple panties, seeing how he was looking over her body. She felt goosebumps rise across her skin, she could see the hunger in his eyes and pulled her bottom lip between her teeth, "so?"

"Absolutely stunning," he shook his head, his fingers tracing over her bare waist, tickling her.

She took a deep breath and stood up and moved over to the window, she closed her eyes before pushing the window open and moving onto the sill, making sure that her panties still covered her. "Pass me a towel then Locksley if I'm going to sunbathe I need something to lay on."

"Okay," he grabbed her one and passed it to her, his hand brushing her arm. She could tell he was sceptical, he probably didn't want her to do something she was uncomfortable with. She wasn't so much uncomfortable with him seeing her as she was with everyone else seeing her.

"How long do I have to stay up there for?" Regina asked, shrugging her towel over her shoulder. God this was crazy, she was supposed to be ill and if she got caught she knew that she would be in a whole world of trouble. Moving further onto the ledge she shuddered, "oh god! It's freezing! Fucking hell Robin, you are going to pay for this, I swear to god you better be ready for your turn Locksley, I am thinking up a good punishment for you!"

"Can't wait."

She began climbing the ladder, Robin coming out behind her and spanking her ass, causing her to squeal as she turned her head to glare at him, secretly that sent a shot of pleasure straight to her core as she followed the squeal with a moan, before swatting his hand away and shaking her head, "naughty, naughty boy." She tutted casting him a seductive smile before reaching the roof and laying out the towel, dropping down onto it, her hand resting under her head as she wiggled a little trying to get comfortable on top of the slates which were already slightly digging into her back.

"Well your majesty, you look positively radiant."

"Did you bring the sun cream?" she quipped feeling the need to joke around to take her mind off the freezing cold air that had wrapped itself around her bare body, at this rate she wouldn't have to be faking a cold she would bloody be catching one herself and she had to say the last thing she wanted was a bought of hypothermia.

"Of course," Robin nodded casting her a humoured smirk.

"Well then, will you be a dear and get my back for me? I think I might be burning." She turned onto her stomach casting him a sly look as she tried not to think about what would happen if she slipped on the roof and fell off, she didn't dare imagine it.

"Crazy girl," he chuckled, moving over to her and beginning to massage her shoulders as though he were rubbing in sun tan lotion, she moaned under the feel of his supple fingers working out all the tension in the muscles of her shoulders and upper back, "do you like that?" he asked doing it a little harder, his fingers pressing against some of the kinks that had formed there causing her to groan and bury her face in her arms.

"If feels sooo good," she breathed moving slightly into a more comfortable position as she felt him shuffle closer to her so that he could begin to move down her back, rubbing his hands over her skin. Her eyes were nearly rolling back in her head over how good his touch felt, how amazing his fingers were. When they skirted over her lower back she couldn't help but imagine them being even lower, imagine him touching her somewhere further down her body, somewhere much more intimate. Her breath hitched as she felt his hands skim over her ass to work her thighs, entirely too close to where she was wet for him.

She reached around and grabbed his hand moving it from her leg, she was slightly embarrassed and she didn't want him to feel how he had affected her, not here anyway, it might be slightly dangerous to try anything on the roof of a three-story building. "Excuse me wandering hands," she giggled locking her fingers with his and resting her head on them, "how long do I have to do this?" she asked.

"Just a little bit longer," he grinned laying back himself and nearly slipping causing him to shoot upright and stare at her, "how the hell are you laying down on here?"

"I'm hoping that the towel has a good grip," she cringed, "also, trying not to think of the impending doom that I would undoubtedly face should I fall from such a great height, also it would be your fault."

"Then I think you have laid on here long enough."

"Thank god," she turned back around and sat up looking around her as she clung to her legs and shivered, suddenly she slid her foot forward and screamed causing Robin to lunge and grab her, clinging to her he buried his face in her hair just as she burst into laughter and looked at him.

"Fucking hell!"

"Sorry," she giggled, "couldn't resist."

"I think my heart might have just jumped out of my mouth," he breathed looking at her and shaking his head, clearly she had just scared the shit out of him.

She scrunched her nose up and moved closer to him, pressing her lips against his, "thanks for catching me Locksley."

"You weren't even falling."

"Yes, but I could have been," she shrugged taking his hand and moving to get down from the roof when they heard voices and she froze, tightening her hold on him as she squeezed his hand, "did you hear that?" she whispered peering off the edge of the roof and spotting Dr Hopper with Miss French. "It's Archie," she muttered.

"Yes, I am just going to check on Regina Mills she's come down with the flu and I want to make sure she isn't pulling a fast one on me," Regina's eyes went wide as she turned to Robin.

"Did you hear that?" she squeaked, worry laced within her voice, she was going to be caught out, they were both going to be caught sharing a room together and they would be sent back to school, her mother would be informed and she would be grounded permanently, her mother would probably pull her out of school and she would never see Robin or her friends ever again. "We need to do something! I can't be caught in a room with you Robin, this isn't happening," she shook her head, "we need to…"

"Shit, come on, we need to hide all my stuff and get you back in bed looking sick," they clambered down from the roof, scaling the ladder before slipping back through the window into their room, frantically running around, grabbing anything that belonged to Robin and throwing it all in the wardrobe.

"Robin what if he catches you in here, what if he realises that we have been staying in here together the whole time? That were skiving off?" she ran her hands over her face forgetting that she was still only wearing her underwear.

He grabbed her arm and shook his head, "he isn't going to find me in here I promise," he breathed resting his forehead against hers, stroking her cheek gently, "Regina you will be fine, we will be fine."

"If my mother found out, if she knew… you would never see me again," she took a deep breath and closed her eye before pressing her lips against Robin's, "I don't think I would be able to deal with never seeing you again."

"Don't worry," he kissed her again, deepening it this time pulling her close as she wrapped her arms around his neck, only being broken apart by a knocking on the door. She hurriedly shoved Robin in the bathroom, pulling the door closed as quickly as she could before jumping under the bed covers and pretending to be asleep, groaning as she burrowed further into the pillow, coming to the conclusion that if she had to pretend to be ill she had to be properly warmed up for her performance.

"Regina?" Archie's voice called out and she cringed again, "are you alright Regina?"

"Sir?" she croaked, "one minute," she slipped out of bed and pulled a sweater over her head along with a pair of Robin's sweatpants, noticing a glass of water half empty on the bedside table she went near the open widow and chucked it in her face before looking in the mirror and hoping it made her look like she was suffering from a fever and not like she had been doused with water. She pulled the door open coming face to face with her teacher, his eyes going wide as he looked at her, "sir," she whispered.

"I just came to check on you Regina and see how you were feeling but I have a feeling that it isn't very well."

"You would be correct in that assumption," she coughed covering her face with her hands as she pretended they were shaking, not that she needed to pretend because she was genuinely terrified that he would find Robin and that she would literally never go back to school again, as much as she despised some of the people at school, she despised home school with her mother more.

"Well, I'll leave you to your rest," he nodded awkwardly and she was about to close the door when he furrowed his eyebrows and stepped into the room, moving past her, she held her breath and crossed her fingers as she turned around to watch him, immediately spotting a pair of Robin's boxers on the chair by the window, causing her to cough loudly in attempt to get his attention back on her, but he carried on straight towards the chair.

Oh fuck, oh god, they were screwed, they were so, so screwed, there was no way out of this, none at all and she couldn't breathe, the air becoming trapped in her lungs as she watched her teacher, seemingly inspecting the room. She closed her eyes and shook her head, this wasn't happening, it… "why do you have the window open?" She opened her eyes to look at him and watched as he shut it, "it's freezing in this room Mills, no wonder you're ill."

"I needed a little air," she stated weakly as she moved over to the chair and discreetly grabbed Robin's boxers, tucking them in the waistband of the slacks she was wearing before using the sweatshirt to cover them.

"Okay, drink plenty of fluids and hopefully you will feel somewhat better for tomorrow."

"Will do."

"No smart remarks? Someone really is ill," he stated in concern before shaking his head and leaving the room, just as she thought he was gone he came back again, "you wouldn't happen to know which room Robin Locksley is in would you? I need to go and check on him."

"Robin," she stuttered, "I… urm…" what was she supposed to say?! Yes sir, he's sharing my room and by the way we are totally sleeping in the same bed whilst having morning make out sessions in the shower, but don't worry we still had clothes on, well I did? She thought not, but how the hell were they gonna get around it? There was a ping from her sweatshirt pocket and she chanced a look at her phone. 'Say I'm bunking with Will in room 12, I'm climbing out the bathroom window and running like hell as we speak, way to fake a fever, right? ;) Btw, you did great. xxx'

"If you don't know I'll just ask Mrs Lucas at reception like I did when I needed to find your room."

"No! I mean no, there's no need, I think it's room twelve," she added a cough to the end of her sentence, hoping to cover her over eager reply, the last thing she wanted was for him to talk to the Widow Lucas and find out the truth, in the meantime her learning her mistake that Robin was a boy and not a girl.

"Thank you, now I think you should rest up."

"Will do," she nodded, closing the door behind him and jumping onto the bed, dropping her head in the pillow and letting out a sigh of relief, she just hoped that Robin got into Will's room in time to not be discovered by Dr Hopper. She waited nervously, biting on her nails, she couldn't help it, it was a bad habit, but right now she had a reason to be biting her nails, not that Robin would tell on her, he would take the entirety of the blame if he were caught skiving, but she was worried about him, she needed him with her.

After about twenty minutes of sitting there nervously she stood from the bed and began pacing, where the hell was he? He should be back by now, surely, he should, she had nearly lost all he nails she was that concerned. In that moment though there was a knock on the door and she literally bounded over to it, wanting to throw it open straight away, but she was on edge and panicky, "who is it?"

"Babe it's me."

She flung the door open and wrapped her arms around his neck, "I thought we were caught," she whispered, relief flooding through her body, allowing the other feelings to ebb away.

"Of course, we weren't," he shook his head, his fingers running up and down her back as he held her tighter, "although I have to say when he said he was coming to check on me I freaked out a little."

"A little? I nearly had a heart attack."

"What like the one you gave me whilst we were on the roof?" he grinned cheekily and she swatted his arm before smirking back at him.

"I didn't know my body was that good, but I guess it is."

"Oh, it is, you Regina Mills are exquisite inside and out," she grinned and bumped her nose against his before merging their lips together, he nipped her bottom lip with his teeth causing her to giggle as she deepened the kiss pressing her body flush against his and kissing him, her tongue brushing against his causing her to let out a moan.

Once she was flustered and breathless she pulled back, her eyes on his as she smiled at him, her lips grazing over his as she spoke, "you are very good at that."

"So are you."

Robin pecked her lips gently before she moved her mouth to his jaw trailing it towards his ear, she felt him shudder under her ministrations, once she reached her destination she whispered, "now would you care to remove your boxers?"

"Whoa Regina," he pulled back and looked at her wide eyed, causing her to laugh at him and shake her head.

"From the waist band of my sweat pants," she lifted her sweater to revel the white Calvin Klein's that were still tucked there.

"Technically they are my sweatpants," he smirked taking hold of the underwear and taking them out before throwing them back onto the chair and moving his hands to her hips.

"Oh so they are, they are terribly comfy I might have to steal them."

"And here I thought I was the thief."

"Oh you are, I am just paying you back for that apple."

"I was trying to save your life by stealing that apple from you, but you were insistent that you were having it and look where that got you." She stuck her tongue out at him, not expecting him to go in for a kiss at the same time, he pulled back and scrunched his nose up at her, "that was gross."

"Why did you try and kiss my tongue?" she burst into laughter pushing him playfully.

"I think it was you who tried to lick my face."

"I didn't," she smiled watching his dimples as she brought up a finger to trace one gently, "I love these."

"You love my cheeks?" his blue eyes sparkled as he watched her in fascination.

"Yes, well, I love your dimples, but they are pressed into your cheeks, so yes, I suppose love your cheeks," she chuckled at how silly that sounded out loud.

"Well thank you, I love your cheeks also," he laughed hugging her as he shook his head.

"I think it might be your turn to choose, truth or dare?" she rose her eyebrows at him.

"Dare."

"Finally!" she cheered, he had been chickening out all morning and now she could finally challenge him to something. "I dare you to go outside in your boxers and sneak past Archie, Mr Gold and Miss French without them noticing you," she smirked proudly, she had been thinking that one up ever since he had her sunbathing in her underwear, she would have made him do it naked but she didn't know if she was quite ready to see that particular part of his anatomy just yet.

"Seriously?"

"Yes," she nodded in conformation.

"Only if you come with me the same way."

"I don't think so, I already completed my underwear dare."

"Okay, how about, you think up a new dare…"

"Are you chickening out Locksley?" she grinned, sitting on the edge of the bed and crossing her legs as she knelt her elbows on her knees and her chin on her hands looking up at him in challenge.

"You didn't let me finish my proposition," he laughed.

"Carry on then, I'm listening," she was intrigued as to what he was going to suggest, mainly because she had thought he was trying to get out of the dare.

"You give me a new solo dare and we both do the streaking in underwear in front of the teachers?"

"Hmm," she thought about it for a moment and cast him an evil smile, "okay," she leant back on the bed, "this could be interesting."

"Oh shit."

"We'll do the joint dare first and then you will have to find out what your solo dare is."

"Okay, let's do this."

Regina held onto Robin's hand as they tip toed out of the room in only their underwear, "why did I come up with this?" she grumbled, hiding her body behind his as they managed to get to the bottom floor without being detected. They had to somehow get through the reception area where Mrs Lucas was sat knitting. Regina shook her head, "we can't do this."

"Sure we can," Robin dropped to the floor onto his hands and knees as he began crawling in front of the desk, moving all the way to the entrance before standing up and beckoning for her to come and join him, "Gina come on."

"I can't," she shook her head, rolling her eyes as she copied him and began to crawl, however in that moment Granny stirred and Regina's eyes went wide as she looked up at Robin in panic, she could see underneath the hardwood desk that the woman had risen onto her feet, she was probably going to catch her. She froze and scrunched her eyes closed before hearing a noise behind her and deciding she was just going to go for it, crawling towards Robin as quickly as she could. When she reached him she stood up and grabbed his hand pulling him outside with her and pushing him against the wall, "this is crazy," she laughed pressing her body against his.

Robin's hands gravitated to her hips as he stroked them gently, "yes, definitely crazy."

"Come on, we have to sneak past Archie now," Robin rolled his eyes as he ceased to let go of her hand leading her towards the fields where they knew that Archie would be supervising the other students as they worked with the livestock. Regina has rather forgotten that not only would they have to sneak past Archie, they would also have to get past their fellow students. "Do you feel like surrendering yet?" she whispered.

"Not a chance."

They rounded the corner and spotted the red headed teacher talking to another student, "okay, this should be simple enough," Regina stated as they crept silently behind the man, their index fingers over their lips telling the other student who had already spotted them to keep quiet, his eyes went wide as he watched them move behind the teacher, they were nearly past, but Regina couldn't resist doing one last thing, she moved her fingers to his ear seeing that Robin was watching her, probably wondering what the hell she was playing at, before she pushed his glasses, causing them to fall off his face into the grass. She then turned grabbed Robin's hand again and they ran.

"What on earth?!" Archie shouted causing her to snigger as they crept into the stables through a side door, shutting it behind them as they both burst into fits of laughter.

"What were you doing?" Robin chuckled.

"Nothing, just having a little fun, I just had to."

"Yep, I have to say I would have probably wanted to do the same if I had thought about it," he grinned, "Right, let's go find Gold and French." The two seemed to always be put on duty together which seemed convenient, they began walking towards the paddock which was where they were supposedly working. Suddenly someone let out a loud wolf whistle causing them to stop in their tracks and turn to see Will staring at them.

"Well if it isn't the too skivers, I thought you were too sick to do anything today," Will folded his arms as he eyed them, "looks like you were doing something mate, or should I say someone," he winked, "not that I'd blame you she actually has a good body once you remove all the layers of clothes."

Robin stepped in front of her pushing her behind him, "Will, would you stop ogling her as though she were a piece of meat," he snapped, clearly getting annoyed at his outspoken friend.

"Don't worry mate, all I am saying is now I get why you liked her so much, she's hot, if you can deal with the personality," he shrugged.

"Shut up," Robin gritted out holding Regina securely behind him, her front pressed tightly to his back.

"Come on, ya know I'm messing with ya," Will nudged him, "but seriously Robin put some clothes on would ya, I can see the outline of your junk."

"Will why are you even looking there?"

"I wasn't looking," he argued back.

"Oh I think you were," Regina laughed, "now how about we keep this between us?"

"Fine, run along then, have your fun whilst everyone else has to do your dirty work for ya."

"Who said we weren't doing dirty work of our own?" Regina quipped, not being able to stop it from tumbling from her mouth, it was one of those thoughts that would probably best been kept in, but no, she had to go and say it out loud. There was no taking it back now though so she squeezed Robin's ass playfully, "come on, we should be getting back to it."

"Of course, we should," he went along with it as she began walking off, his hand still enclosed within hers.

"Get in there mate!" Will called after them and Regina saw Robin roll his eyes.

"Sorry," he sighed.

"Don't be, it isn't your fault your friend is even weirder than you are."

"You think I'm weird?" he asked, his arms coming to surround her waist as they snuck around the corner of the stables, hearing a moan as soon as they had. They both looked up and Regina chuckled quietly tilting her head at the scene in front of them.

"Do you think Miss French could get her tongue any further down his throat?"

"I think she could probably try," Robin nodded.

"I didn't need to see this never mind her trying to do that, come on let's sneak past them and around the back to get back to our room." Once they were behind them Regina noticed that Gold's hand was up the female teacher's skirt, just as he had promised her it would be the day before, "eww go," she whispered in Robin's ear pushing him gently. Hurrying out of sight of the teachers and looking back to make sure that they didn't get caught meant that they hadn't seen the muddy swampy area around the back of the stable and before she knew it Regina lost all her balance and her feet went from under her landing her in the thick muddy bog.

She knew she couldn't make a loud noise but that didn't stop her from throwing the most vicious glare at Robin who seemingly found it funny that she was absolutely covered from head to toe in mud, it was sticking to her whole body and she gagged a little at the smell, "this is not funny," she shook her head, maybe it was slightly funny, she was sat in mud wearing only her underwear.

"I'm dying," he laughed looking at her, "you got a little…" he pointed to her cheek.

"Oh, you think?" she rose her eyebrows not being able to stop the slight smile that came onto her lips, "can you please help me up?"

"Of course," he nodded offering her his hand she chuckled to herself, silly, silly boy. Wrapping her fingers around his wrist she saw that he finally realised what she was going to do, "Regina no."

"Oh, I think I have to," she grinned wickedly, "I mean who doesn't want a full body mud mask?"

"Me."

"Shame a bit of deep stinking mud does wonders for the skin you know."

"Regina," he warned, "babe I'm serious."

"So am I," she tugged on his arm and he slipped forward practically landing on top of her causing her to squeal and his hand to immediately cover her mouth.

"Shush," he whispered before rolling them over so that she was on top, "stay completely still," she prayed to god that she had enough mud covering her to camouflage them considering they had sunk into the muddy bog, there was no way that she hadn't been heard and she really did not want them to get caught, especially when they had already completed the dare.

"I don't see anything," Gold's voice sounded.

"I heard something!" Belle shouted in response.

"I think you might just be paranoid."

"We can't sneak around like this anymore Robert, it's too risky, what if we get caught? What if students caught us, or even Archie?"

"They've already been caught," Regina mumbled rolling her eyes, "twice."

"Come on, let's just get back to work," Miss French muttered.

Regina chanced a look towards where they had been and noticed that they were walking off, back around the other side of the stables, "well that was a close one," she whispered looking down into Robin's eyes, he had a smear of mud across his cheek, apart from his face the rest of him was absolutely covered in the gross substance and she could now see why he had found it so funny.

"This is gross, I think it's seeping through my boxers."

"Yep, it has most certainly penetrated my panties," she giggled before wrinkling her nose, "I didn't mean it like that."

"Of course you didn't," he laughed wrapping his arms around her as he wiped some of the mud from her face but failed to because his hands were just as muddy, "do you think we should probably get back to the room and showered before this shit dries?"

"Yeah, I think that we should," she agreed, this mud was going places it shouldn't and she needed to get out of it, it was also freezing cold outside now, she wanted to warm up and snuggle in bed, yet she had another dare for him yet, one she had been thinking about and hoped that she was brave enough to ask for. "You definitely need a shower Robin, you're smelling a bit ripe," she found her balance and managed to stand up, she would have kissed him when she was on top of him if she hadn't been so concerned about digesting any of the mud or whatever it was.

"I hardly think you can talk," he splashed some of the mud at her as she tried to wade out of it, "I can't believe you didn't help me up before you escaped this mud hell."

"Do you really think that I would have been stupid enough to fall for that?"

"No, I suppose not," she chuckled, pushing himself up before wading over to her, wrapping his arms around her.

"Robin! Keep your mud to yourself thank you very much."

"Something tells me that a little bit more mud wouldn't make that much difference in this current situation."

"Very true, now I am bagging the shower first," she laughed taking off into a run towards the ladder which lead to their window, hoping that she didn't fall considering she was covered in wet mud. Her trainers were sodden and she was slightly surprised that she hadn't lost one or both of them in the bog.

"Not if I get in there first!"

"You won't!"

He didn't, she had managed to get up the ladder first, having to fight him off as he pulled her leg, she even tried to keep him outside by closing the window on him, but he had managed to open it and chase her into the bathroom. She got her shower and was feeling a lot more refreshed, she had slipped back into his sweatpants and her jumper, her wet hair piled on top of her head in a messy bun. She was currently laying back on the beg waiting for him to come out of the bathroom.

The door opened and Robin came into sight, "so what dare would you like me to complete?" he asked meeting her eyes after he just finished buttoning his shirt from his shower.

"I would like a strip tease please," she rose her eyebrows, surprised at her boldness, but it wasn't as though she had never seen him in his underwear, he only slept in his boxers anyway. Looking at the shock on his face she realised she forgot to clarify something and gasped, squinting a little, "okay, I only want it to the boxers, just in case you were thinking that… I don't really want to see your… thingy at this moment."

"Thingy?" he sniggered causing her to roll her eyes.

"Okay then… your… appendage…protuberance…projection."

"I think that all of those were worse than thingy if I'm being honest with you," he joked laughing louder than she had heard him before at her embarrassment. She didn't want to say the word cock out loud and penis felt so medical, so what was she really meant to call it?

"I don't want to see your dick Robin okay?" she felt her cheeks heat up at the word, deciding that maybe this dare had been a bad idea.

"Good to know, although I don't know what you have against little Robin."

She could see the humour on his face and rose her eyebrows at him, "I have nothing against little Robin… I just don't really want to shake hands with him just yet…" at the realisation of how that probably sounded she cleared her throat and continued, "or even really meet him at this current moment in time, like it's not exactly the most romantic way to first… you know see… that." The only thing running through her mind in that moment was that she wished the earth would open up and swallow her, although it felt as though it already had, her face was burning up in embarrassment as though it had been exposed to the earth's magma.

"You know I said you were adorable when you blush."

"Stop it," she covered her cheeks consciously, "I'm warm that's all." She found the waistband of Robin's sweatpants and pulled them down her legs before tossing them across the room and whipping her sweater off too leaving her in her underwear again as she leaned back on the bed, "so, do you need music or do you prefer to create your own melody?" She moved one arm above her head as she leant against the headboard.

"Hmm, let me think about that one," he grabbed his phone and scrolled through it before smirking and clicking on something, music filling the air immediately causing her to swallow hard, she had definitely heard that song before, on a certain erotic film that she had to sneak to Tink's to watch because her mother wouldn't allow it in the house. The Weekend's smooth voice filled the room and Robin turned to look at her, his face all of a sudden turning serious as he watched her.

Then the beat dropped and his hands came to the buttons on the blue plaid shirt he was wearing starting at the top undoing one and doing these little dance moves that had her breath catching, especially as he got lower and revealed more of his chest to her.

So I love when you call unexpected

'Cause I hate when the moment's expected

So I'ma care for you, you, you

I'ma care for you, you, you, you, yeah

'Cause girl you're perfect

You're always worth it

And you deserve it

The way you work it

'Cause girl you earned it, yeah

Girl you earned it, yeah

After the first chorus, his shirt was fully unbuttoned and her eyes were devouring his chest, she couldn't help it, he was amazingly toned and it turned her on more than anything to see him dancing like he was, his eyes never leaving hers as he moved in time with the beat and she realised that he was a pretty good dancer. He moved closer to her and she pulled her bottom lip between her teeth as he placed her hands on his shirt and made her take it off, which she did, sliding it down his arms before dropping it to the ground.

As soon as it was on the ground he pulled back and continued to do the moves his hands coming to the buttons on his jeans causing her eyes to widen as she watched him begin to undo them, this had turned her on far too much and was a really bad idea considering she was laid here in only her underwear. "I am making this up as I go along," Robin told her chuckling as he did one last dance thing like she had seen on Magic Mike before he dropped the trousers and her hands instinctively shot to cover her eyes as she let out a giggle and peered at him through a crack between her fingers.

He bent down and tried to move his feet out however he must have caught his foot on something because all of a sudden, he lost his balance and fell with a thud causing her to drop her hands and hurriedly crawl to the end of the bed, "Robin!" As soon as she was there however he jumped up and grabbed her, pushing her back gently as he laughed and tucked her hair behind her ear. He was pretty much on top of her and she shuddered before her hands came up to stroke over his shoulders joining in the laughter as she swatted him, "I thought you were hurt then!"

"Nope, just clumsy it seems," he grinned stroking her cheek, his boyish dimples showing through his stubble yet again. His body was nestled between her legs because of the way they had fallen backwards, she could feel him pressing against her and suddenly the music playing from his phone changed, slowing into Crazy in Love by Beyoncé, the version of the song she had done for 50 Shades and she was guessing that it was the playlist from the movie. Her breathing shallowed as their eyes met and he closed the gap between their mouths, kissing her gently at first his hand moving across her shoulder.

"Is this okay?" he whispered against her lips, she could only nod in response as she felt him explore her body with his hands, "Regina tell me to stop if you…"

"Don't stop," she shook her head kissing him again as her hands travelled down his back, she didn't know what she was doing but what she did know was that if felt good, maybe it was the music that was affecting her but she couldn't help it, just as one of his hands cupped her bra clad breast she squeezed his ass causing him to buck his hips against hers in response. She moaned against his lips pressing him harder against her, "what are we doing?" she rasped moving herself against him causing pleasure to flood through her veins.

"I don't know," he shook his head, "but whatever it is it feels amazing."

"Yes," she nodded dropping her head to the pillows as his mouth ran across her jaw and they pushed their hips together, his hardness rubbing against her clit through her panties, the fabric of their underwear brushing together. "Robin," she moaned as he sucked on her pulse point, "Robin."

"Do you want me to stop?" he asked somewhat breathless.

Did she? Part of her did, a very, very small part of her, the other part of her was saying that they should just carry on, "I… don't know." Had he not asked that question she would have carried on, but it had unnerved her somewhat, she had been caught up in the moment, she had been feeling good and she had let her body rule her head, but she wanted something more than this for their first time together, even with their underwear still on.

Robin sat up between her legs on his knees, pulling her up with him and hugging her, his fingers undoing her bun and running through her hair, "we should stop before we get carried away," he whispered in her ear and she caught his groan when her knee accidentally rubbed against his arousal.

"I'm sorry Robin," she closed her eyes pulling back from the hug and kneeling opposite him, she buried her head in her hands, "I'm a tease, aren't I?" she muttered, her voice muffled by her hands.

"No you aren't," she felt him move off the bed and the music stopped playing, he moved back to her taking her hands from in front of her face allowing him to look at her, "you aren't a tease, don't even think you are," he reassured pressing a tender kiss to her lips, "we both got caught up in the moment that's all it was Regina," he pulled her up so he could hug her, his hands playing with the ends of her ebony curls, "you don't ever have to do anything you're uncomfortable with or unsure about. I need you to tell me when it's too much because I am afraid when it comes to you I get rather carried away," he chuckled, "can't help myself."

"I'm the same with you," she shook her head, "who allowed you to be that handsome?"

"Who allowed you to be that beautiful?"

She simply moved in and kissed him slowly, before pulling back and looking at him, cupping his cheeks with her hands, "I want our first time to be special and I know that whenever it is, it will be."

"Of course, it will. It will be ours."
