Robin entered the room cautiously. Regina was laying there, her back to him.
He sat in the chair Tinkerbell must have pulled next to the bed.
"Regina . . ." he began.
"This world is so childish," Regina said dully, to the wall. "Destroying lives is just fine so long as it's done with good intentions."
The tears started rolling down Robin's face as he reached for her. She placed her hand over his as he placed it on her shoulder, "I'm so sorry, so sorry."
"You did nothing wrong." Regina heaved a sigh, "If it had been Daniel she brought back, I would have done the same. You must have dreamed it so many times."
Robin had. Thought he had truly said goodbye until he saw her.
"Zelena knew," Regina said. "She knew the perfect revenge "
"But I played into it," Robin insisted.
"It was a matter of seconds…."
"But enough to hurt you."
"Going to her was natural."
"Regina, you have to let me apologize!"
"Ok," she turned to him then, tears rolling off her chin, just letting them. Broken.
"And I'm sorry too," Regina touched his face. "Sorry what that deception did to you, and Roland"
"It wasn't you."
"It's always been me," Regina contradicted. "My need to get revenge on Snow White, everything I've done. I started it."
"But you've changed," Robin told her. "We're over that. Everyone is."
Regina shook her head, "It's never over." She dissolved into tears, "And I paid the price. My baby was murdered."
Robin burst into tears, "It was my baby too."
And hard, wracking sobs erupted. From both.
He clutched her to her chest and they cried until their throats were raw.
