This one is a little short but the next one should be a bit bigger, I've decided to make it an outlaw queen fiction and it should start getting a little happier soon :)
Enjoy !

"Mom!" Henry shouts as he finally finds the room his Mother was brought to.
"Henry?" Regina asks, just by hearing her voice it's not hard to tell that she's exhausted.
"Are you ok?" He asks frantically.
"I'm fine Henry" after she responds, Henry makes his way over to her and sits gently next to her on the bed.
"Henry I don't think you're supposed to be here." Archie's calm voice interrupts.
"I want to be here, I need to be here."
"Henry I need to examine her" Archie says cautiously not wanting to anger him. Henry looks down at his Mom, just realizing how small she really looks, so tired, broken.
I need to help her.
"What can I do?"
"I need to examine her."
"I want to stay."
"Regina?" Archie asks, wondering if Henry staying is ok. Regina's eyes start to drop close. Her little prince is here, she's safe.
"I think we should let her rest, they gave her some medicine that I believe will make her sleep. To rejuvenate her body." Archie adds. Henry nods as he hugs his Mom closer, showing her he's there and nothing bad would happen. As Regina drifts into a deep sleep Henry gets an idea.
"Do you mind staying here, with her? I have an idea but I don't want her to wake up alone. It shouldn't take me long."
"Of course Henry." Henry hugs his Mom one more time, more to reassure himself then her, and heads out of the hospital and to the Pawn Shop down the street.
...
"Mr. Gold?" Henry calls into the dimly lit shop.
"Henry, what can I do for you?" Mr. Gold asks as he comes out from the back room with Belle trailing behind him.
"What's wrong with my Mom?"
"I'm sorry Henry I have not seen your Mother since Neil's announcement night"
"I just had to bring her to the hospital, she's having nightmares, not sleeping, not eating..."
"What do you need from me?"
"This wouldn't be happening if it weren't for Marian!"
"Henry," Belle interrupts "I don't think it's Marian's fault, Robin chose-"
"I know what that man did, I need you to fix it!" Henry says staring at Mr. Gold.
"I cannot change the past."
"Then fix her, I want to help, but I can't do anything! It's nothing Dr. Whale can fix!"
"I don't know what you-"
"Tell me what's wrong!"
"Rumple?" Belle asks.
Mr. Gold sighs, "Robin and Regina are soul mates Henry, do you know what that means?"
"That they're supposed to be together." He says simply.
"Yes, but it's more complicated than that. They have been fated to be together since Daniel died, before Robin met Marian."
"Who's Daniel?"
"Regina hasn't told you?"
"No." Henry shrugs.
"He was the first person Regina fell in love with, it's not my place to tell you." he says looking down.
"So?"
"Robin and Regina's souls have essentially been trying to find their way to each other for many years. And when they finally connected, their souls combined and became one. But Robin went to Marian when she came back, basically ripping his soul away." He sighs, "her soul's shattered Henry."
"So FIX it"
"I can't"
"Then what will?"
"I'm not sure, the only thing I would think of is to mend their souls back together, but for that to happen Robin has to leave Marian and go back to Regina. Robin is an honorable man, I don't think he would-"
"I'll take care of it." Henry says leaving the pawn shop before anyone can stop him.
