Decided to jump some weeks in the story line. I don't want to drag it out to long and I'm stuck for ideas. So enjoy.

"I am not going to sit here and wait for you to come home." Margaret said watching as the others got ready to leave.

"You are staying Margaret and that is final you have to take care of Robert." Guy said walking past his wife.

"I'm taking him to Kirklees and coming along. Tuck has already taken him." She stood arms crossed staring at the wide eyed expression of her husband.

Robin walked up to him and leaned over so he could only hear. "Let her anything you say won't stop her so give in. Trust me I've been there and still am."

"I heard that." Both women said at the same time.

"Fine."

She crept along the castle halls listening closely. Suddenly a hand grabbed her and pulled her into the shadows. "Listen up miss." The sheriff sneered into her ear. "I plan to get Gisborne and anyone in the way will get hurt. So if you want to see you child again you will stay out of my way or more people will get hurt." He shoved her and disappeared.

He had let her go as if he wanted her to make the decision and protect her husband. She was going to she knew that no matter what she was going to do that. She hurried along the corridor and found Robin and Guy already fighting.

Fighting behind her husband she watched for the sheriff spotting him up on the battlements. She pulled back away from Guy and waited she watched knowing what she had to do. As the sheriff let go of the arrow she screamed at Guy who turned, placing herself between him and the arrow. She felt the initial hit then slowly the pain. But she knew she had saved the one person who meant more than her life to her and that was all she cared about.

Guy spun around in time to see Margaret fall to the ground gripping an arrow that was coming out of her side. He made it to her at the same time as Robin and his men. "Get her inside." Jac said running ahead.

"Go we'll take care of things." John yelled over the noise. Robin, Marian and Guy followed Jac inside. Guy gently laid her on the bed. "Maggie?" She opened her eyes and looked at him and gave a small smile, before she grimaced gripping his arm tightly.

"Did you see who did this?" Robin asked from the foot of the bed.

She nodded. "The sheriff. He was trying to get Guy." She gasped. "Said if…..i did anything….he would hurt you….and everyone else….I didn't know what to do." Tears were falling down her cheeks as she held onto Guy. "I'm sorry…..I just didn't know….I had to stop him…..that was the only way….Didn't have time."

Guy quieted her and looked down at Robin who nodded running out the door, Guy turned back around. "I'll be back. Do as Jac says alright." She nodded, he quickly kissed her forehead and followed after Robin.

Jac's face clouded with worry. "Marian do you remember when you were hurt we thought you'd died?'

"Of course you said something about hemlock."

Jac nodded. "We need to do this for her."

Maggie pulled a face at the taste but soon felt herself slipping off thinking of Guy.

Guy sat beside the bed watching the steadily growing breathing of Maggie's. He had nearly gone crazy at first thinking she had died until Marian was able to explain what was going on. Now they had to wait for the effects to wear off so that Jac could give her something else for the pain and to heal her quickly.

Out in the hall Much paced carrying a now sleeping Robert. He was anxious about his new friend. Marian came and took Robert promising that Margaret would be fine.

Slowly Margaret's eyes came open. She blinked a few times before she recognized where she was and remembered why. She struggled to sit up until Guy stopped her. "Easy there." He said gently laying her back down.

"You're, you're alright." She breathed a sigh of relief only to grimace. Guy turned to the door and signaled for Jac to be brought in before he turned back to his wife.

"Yes I'm fine Maggie but you my love are not." He said a bit sternly, then smiled. "you had me worried for awhile."

"Sorry." She mumbled the effects of the drug still strong in her system. She held tightly to his hand.

"Just rest we'll talk later."

A few days later Margaret was able to sit up in bed on her own. Each of the outlaws made an effort to stop by. "Marian what is going on? Robin hardly can keep from grinning and Guy. Guy looks like a kid at Christmas."

"Well." Marian said suppressing her own grin. "Since Guy killed the sheriff. Robin has taken over with Guy still as acting Lieutenant."

Margaret's mouth dropped open. "Your joking right? Those two are actually really working together not just because you and I are standing there."

"Really working together."

"Because we want to." Guy said walking in smiling. "Don't look so surprised we said we would and we are. How are you feeling?" He gently kissed her forehead.

"Fine I think." She still looked shocked.

"Good. Then we'll be able to move you back to Locksley soon and begin raising our family." He winked at her before leaving both women in giggles.
