There is a little part with Robin in this one, I promise there is going to be more of him later.
Boston
Regina was driving to the hotel when she noticed men carrying out the furniture out of the building and she decided to check it out and see if the apartment was on sale. She stopped the car, and went in. In the apartment she found a redheaded woman.
"Excuse me? Are you the owner?" Regina asked the woman.
"Yes, but I am selling this place, going back home. Why?" Her Scottish accent was obvious.
"I'd like to buy it." Regina said.
"Okay, but first. We have three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen and a sitting or a living room whatever you prefer, oh and there is also a balcony." The woman explained.
"Perfect, I'll take it. Can we sign the papers now? Money is not a problem." Regina wanted to get that over with as soon as she could.
"Okay, I'll get the ownership papers from my car, you go and take a look around." The woman said and left the room.
Regina went on and explored the apartment. In the living room the walls were painted light green, it wasn't small but it wasn't enormous, it was just right. The three bedrooms all looked the same, they were the same size, the walls were painted in simple white and two of them had bathrooms, the third bathroom was located on the end of the hall. The kitchen was big, the walls were painted light orange. She went out on the balcony and the view left her breathless, she couldn't see the buildings but she could see the light from them. The apartment had no furniture so she could easily repaint the bedrooms and she definitely needed to go shopping the next day.
"Enjoying the view?" She heard the woman with the Scottish accent ask.
"Yes, it's beautiful. Are those the papers?"
"Yes, all I need is your signature." The red-haired woman said as she waved with the papers.
Finding a apartment like that one was rare but finding it on her first night there was a miracle. Regina signed the papers and payed the apartment.
"You know if it weren't for you, I'd probably be spending the night at the hotel and would search for an apartment for a week. Thank you, Miss...?" Regina stopped realising that she bought the apartment from her but didn't know her name.
"Susan, the name is Susan Adamson."
"Well, Susan, I'm Regina Mills, have a save trip back home." She said.
"Thank you, enjoy your first place in Boston." She said and left the apartment.
Regina got back in her car, took her things out of it and moved it to the apartment, she didn't have a bed or a couch so she put a few cushions on the ground, lied down and covered herself with a blanket.
The morning sunlight woke Regina up, she got up, got dressed and went to find a furniture store, she found one a few streets away. As she walked in and saw the endless choices of furniture, she thought to herself "this is going to be a very long day".
Storybrooke
"Emma!" Henry shook her sleeping form.
"What do you want? I have work at 9, let me sleep five more minutes."
"Emma, it's 11am." He said and waited for her to react. She quickly got up, and dressed in hurry when she saw the clock on the wall.
"Henry, it's 8am. I could have slept for another half an hour." Emma said and considered going back to bed.
"Mom is gone." Henry said, barely audible.
"What? How do you know that? She could be sleeping." Emma asked clearly more awake than she was a few minutes ago.
"She's not sleeping, she's a morning person, she should be at her office but she is not. Can you maybe go to her house and check it?" Henry asked.
"Henry... Fine. You wanna come with me?"
"Yes."
"Well, she isn't answering." Emma said after knocking on the door and ringing the bell.
"Move." Henry said and when Emma moved he pulled out the key from under the welcome map. He unlocked the door, they went in and called Regina's name. Emma searched the rooms upstairs and couldn't find her. They went in the kitchen when they heard someone at the door.
"Stay here." Emma said to Henry, pulled out her gun and went to see who was there. Henry followed her but kept hidden. She opened the door and found rather desperate looking Robin.
"What the hell are you doing here? How can you even show up at her doorstep after what you did?!" It wasn't Emma who said it, it was Henry.
"Henry..." Emma tried to calm him down.
"No, she is gone because of him!" Henry yelled.
"Wait, she's... gone?" Robin's voice broke down at the end a little. He looked like he was about to cry.
"You love her, don't you?" Henry asked much calmer.
"I..." He didn't know what to answer, he loved Regina but he also loved Marian, but he mourned Marian, he moved on from her and Regina helped him with it. He couldn't even begin to imagine his life without Regina, with her gone he felt a part of him missing. "I do." He said, turned around and left them standing there.
"Come on, kid, let's go to Gold's, he might know something." Emma said and lead him to the car, they were in front if Gold's shop in just a few minutes.
"Gold!" Emma called him as she walked in.
"What do you want?" Rumple asked annoyed, Belle at his side.
"My mom. She's gone." Henry said.
"And you are here because...?"
"We want your help to find her." Emma said.
"Ummm, let me think about that... No." Emma looked at Belle for help but got nothing.
"Don't look at me like that, I am on his side on this one." Belle said to Emma.
"So you, both of you, know what's going on. Where is she hiding?"
"I can assure you that Regina is not hiding and I can also assure you that you are not going to find her unless she wants you to." Rumple said.
Okay, first of all I'd like to thank to all of those who favorite and are following this story, I know that Regina finding a place the first night is not realistic at all but I needed to get that out the way, I won't be writing the all time that Regina'll spend in Boston just the stuff important for the story to happen. For the idea I wanted to write I need Regina's child born, so the actual meeting between Regina and someone (spoilers!) will happen after the baby is born. Leave a PM or a review and tell me what you think.
