"Well milady, you have over thought how this was going to go between us." Robin said as he hated to say these untrue words to her, knowing how they were going to affect her.
"What do you mean?" Regina asked as a look of confusion crossed her face.
"You really didn't think this was going to go anywhere now did you?" Robin asked knowing this was going to hurt her.
"Then why did you do this with me tonight?" Regina asked.
"I have gotten everything I ever wanted from you." Robin said swallowing the lump in his throat. He thought how farther from the truth those words were, he wanted much more from her. All of her.
"You just wanted to sleep with me?" Regina asked.
"What more could I want? I could never love someone like you, whose heart is so black." Robin said knowing the words were so far from the truth, when he knew he was starting to fall for this woman.
"Get off me!" Regina said as she shoved at Robin's shoulders.
"I already have, or have you already forgotten?" Robin asked as he could see these words were having the affect he knew they would. She was hurting and angry at him and he wanted nothing more than to tell her how he was being forced to say this.
"Get off me now!" Regina said as she used her magic to throw him off her and Robin landed on the floor and quickly stood up, and gathered his clothes and started to get dress. Regina grabbed her robe and quickly put it on to cover herself.
"If you ever come near me again, I promise you will die." Regina said to him.
"Why not kill me now? Or have you gotten soft for a lonely thief?" Robin asked knowing how this was hurting them both. He watched her open her right hand and saw a fireball appear in her hand.
"I would never want anything to do with such a simple outlaw." Regina said.
"Remember one thing, this outlaw was between your thighs earlier of have you forgotten already?" Robin asked knowing all these words were going to push her completely away from him.
"Well I hope you enjoyed the ride, because you will never get the chance again." Regina said as she closed her hand and extinguished the fireball.
"Who said I ever would want to?" Robin said as he saw her eyes begin to water and he took a step towards her and she waved her hands and he disappeared right in front of her. Regina walked over to the window railing and let everything that had happened this night replay in her mind. When it was over she let out a primal scream of pain and anger as she had nothing left.
Robin appeared in the middle of the forest and quickly looked around and saw that he was only a few hours away from Sherwood Forest. He looked to where he could barely catch a glimpse of her castle and he wanted nothing more than to go to her and explain but he feared what she would do. Plus he had to remember his mother who had been threatened by Cora.
"I'm so sorry Regina. I wished I could tell you how much this night meant to me." Robin said out loud as he knew he would forever remember her face in pain this night.
"Well for a thief I certainly am impressed." a voice said from behind Robin. He turned and saw who it was, the woman who had caused so much hurt tonight.
"Are you happy now?" Robin asked as Cora walked towards him.
"I am certainly pleased. You have done well, here is some payment for your trouble." Cora said as she started to hand him a small pouch full of coins.
"I don't want anything from you." Robin said as he refused it.
"Pity, when it might have helped those you care about." Cora said.
"You got what you wanted, now leave me be." Robin said.
"Oh but wait dear, that is where you are wrong. We still have one little thing we have to discuss." Cora said as she waved her hand and a small vial appeared in it.
"What's that for?" Robin asked very suspicious of what she now had in store.
"Well, this is a potion that will make you forget all about the night you just spent with Regina." Cora said.
"And why would I want to forget Regina?" Robin asked as mad as she was about him he did not want to forget her.
"Why would you want to remember her? She would kill you if she saw you again." Cora said.
"I'm prepared to take my chances." Robin said.
"Well I'm not, see if you don't take the potion then your friend here is going to pay the price." Cora said as she waved her hands and Little John appeared in chains, blindfolded before them.
"John." Robin said as he started to approach his friend.
"Ah ah ah, not so fast." Cora said stopping Robin in his tracks.
"I won't drink that." Robin said.
"Then your friend will die. That's the deal dearie." Cora said as she moved one hand as if she was choking John who did start to choke right there.
"You truly are a heartless woman." Robin said as he put his hand out and Cora placed the vial in it. Robin looked at John and put the vial to his lips and tilted his head back as he swallowed the vial in one shot. Cora was instantly happy and released John as Robin walked over to where he was on his knees, checking on his friend.
"Excellent decision thief." Cora said with a cruel smile on her face.
"You got what you wanted now leave." Robin said.
"It was such an honor doing business with you." Cora said as she disappeared in a cloud of purple smoke.
"Who was that?" John asked as Robin helped him to his feet.
"That was...actually I have no idea. How did we get here?" Robin asked as he saw where they were and the last thing he remembered they had been running from the Queen's black knights.
"I don't know but I suggest we get out of here, before they come back." John said as the two men started to leave. Robin turned and he could barely see the Queen's castle and for some reason he kept looking at it. He gave one last look before he turned around and followed John towards Sherwood Forest.
A few weeks later Regina had just had a meeting with King Midas about how to deal with these outlaws who were determined to take from the rich to give to the poor. Regina had promised him that she had her best black knights out looking for them. After the meeting she was walking back to her room when she got dizzy all of a sudden. She had to lean up against her door to support her, a few seconds later it passed and she kept going into her room. She went to her chair in front of her mirror and sat there as once again the dizziness took hold of her.
"I must of caught something from someone. I was nauseated this morning now this." Regina said. "And just when those damn outlaws are close to be gathered up. Especially that damned Robin Hood." Regina said as a knock sounded at her door and as she stood to go to it the nausea returned and she sat back down quickly.
"Come in." Regina called out as her chamber maid entered.
"I have your new dress your majesty." the maid said as she walked to Regina who stood up slowly.
"Let's try it on then. And hurry up I haven't got all day." Regina said as the maid helped her remove the dress and was helping her put on the new one. The dress was of silky black that was hugging her curves beautifully and as the girl went to lace up the back Regina felt her tugging on the laces.
"Don't you know what you're doing?" Regina barked at the young girl.
"I'm sorry, but it won't fasten." the girl said.
"What? That's impossible, I was very specific with the measurements to the seamstress." Regina said as she saw where the dress was too tight. "Take it off and I'm going to have a word with the seamstress." the girl hurried to remove it and Regina put on a robe and gathered the dress and marched downstairs where her personal seamstress was and threw the dress at the old woman.
"You made this dress too small." Regina said.
"I went by your measurements. Let me re-measure you." the woman said as Regina stood there as the woman did.
"I think I know what the problem is." the woman said.
"Good it about time you know how to fix your mistake. Now I'm not going to pay you more to fix this just so you know." Regina said thinking the woman had messed up the measurements to get paid twice.
"My measurements were right the first time. But with all due respect you have gotten bigger around your stomach area your majesty." the woman said to Regina.
"What are you implying? Are you daring to imply that I'm eating too much?" Regina asked starting to get angry.
"No your majesty, but I do think you might be increasing." the woman said.
"Increasing?" Regina asked as she felt the blood start to leave her face.
"That's right your majesty. I think you're carrying a child." the woman said.
"No, no that's impossible." Regina said as she thought back to that one night a few weeks back, that horrible night.
"Your majesty if you have been with a man than its indeed possible." the woman said as she watched Regina sway and pass out in front of her.
