Zelena woke with a gasp, her dream had startled her from her sleep. The arm around her waist grounding her. She turned in the arms grip to face the man that had curled around her during the night. She admired the face that was now less than a foot from her own, if she leaned forward even slightly she could kiss those lips. Woah! What the hell?! Zelena shifted the arm from around her and moved from the bed, in a flick of her wrist she was dressed and out the door. She scurried along the corridor to the library. She slammed the library door shut behind her and sank down against it to the floor. She lifted a hand and covered her mouth as though breathing to loudly would give away her location. She moved to lock the door, fear overcoming her swiftly. Why the hell would she think of kissing him?! How did that even come into her head?! She dropped her head in her hands and sighed.

Robin woke and stretched out his arm, reaching over to the other side of the bed, only to find it cold and empty. Apparently Zelena had been gone a while. Where had she gone? Why was he so concerned about where she was? He didn't care for her, did he? Oh my god, did he?! He sat up quickly thinking of the last few days. They had become closer than he had ever imagined and he would bet, closer than Zelena could ever imagine. He moved off the bed and changed back into the clothes he had been wearing yesterday. He moved from the room, looking back at the bed that was now a tangle of sheets. The corridor was empty and the halls of the palace deathly quiet. He didn't bother searching for Zelena, if she had woken to the same thoughts as he had, she would be in hiding for the rest of the day. He searched the palace and found a kitchen at the end of the hall. The pantry was full and oddly nothing was off. He frowned, even he, who lived in a world full of magic and fairy tales found this odd. However, he continued to search for foods, he found everything he would need to make a decent sandwich. He decided that now would be the time to find Zelena and bring her something to eat, and act as though nothing had changed. He decided that the library might be a good place to start if Zelena was looking for a way home.

Zelena had been pouring over books since she woke up this morning. She had finally found something, she wasn't entirely sure it would work but it was worth a shot. She gathered everything she would need and began to heat a cauldron. It was times like this she felt she was upholding the witch stereotype. She rolled her eyes at the archaic-ness of it all. There was a sudden knock on the library door, spooking her from her stupor, she unlocked the door with a flick of her wrist,

"It's open." She turned to see Robin walking in with a plate in hand.

"Thought you'd be hungry by now." She looked out the big window to see the sun had moved across the sky and It had indeed been hours since she had gotten up in the morning.

"Oh yes, I suppose it is time to eat. Thank you, Robin." She placed the plate on the table beside the cauldron. "Good news, I think I have found a way home, but it'll take a few days to prepare and it may not even work but I'm hopeful."

"Zelena, that's wonderful!" Zelena smiled at the slight compliment she had heard in his voice. He couldn't help but admire her intelligence and strategy. He was lucky he'd ended up here with Zelena and not Will Scarlet. She smiled and happily bit into her sandwich as she leaned back in her chair. Robin pulled out the chair beside her and fell into it. They fell into a comfortable silence, allowing her to have her fill of food, while he sat watching the flames below the cauldron crackle and spark. She was glad for his company now, despite her freak out this morning. She took the time in silence to admire the face opposite her. His blue eyes were flecked with orange glow of the fire he was staring at furiously. His eyebrows furrowed slightly in his concentration, but didn't distract from the overall handsomeness of his features. His thin lips were parted slightly, and his sandy blonde hair, scruffy, compliments of his pillow. She smiled as she watched him, her eyes travelling back up to his and in a moment of horror she realised her admiration had been spotted and a smirk overcame his handsome features. Zelena blushed.

"See something you like."

"A cat may look at a queen."

"But can a thief look upon a witch?" Zelena blushed profusely.

"Shut up." She got up from her chair and moved around the shelves of books. When she spotted one she had read twice before and enjoyed she attempted to reach up, but found without the heels she had often worn during her reign of Oz she couldn't reach. She didn't hear the archer move until he was behind her and reaching past her to grab the book. He handed it to her and moved away.

"I'm going to take a walk in the grounds if that's alright?"

"You don't need my permission." Zelena replied quite coldly, leaving Robin behind her flinching at the harshness of his words. He said nothing and left the room. Zelena turned to apologise for her words only to find herself alone in the room. She sighed and went to the kitchen instead, to attempt to get Robin to forgive her, through food.
