Thank you so much for the constant support! Inspires me to continue the story.

Well here is chapter 3!

ENJOY MY LOVELY OUTLAWQUEEN SHIPPERS :D


"Is she down for the night?" Robin asked as Regina walked into the kitchen. She nodded and looked to the lasagna. He had made the kitchen table ready just the way he used to do and it made her sad. He was still doings things like he always did, but he wasn't himself. Couldn't remember her or his own past. And when she came to think of it, it was weird. Leaving shouldn't make him forget like that. It did with the first curse, but not the second. "Regina?" Robin asked when he noticed she was staring at the table.

"Yes, and I am quite sure she will sleep through night," Regina said and took a deep breath and let it out more loudly than she wanted it to be.

"Can I ask you something?" Robin asked sitting down on the side he always used to sit at, and he sat down as if it was the most natural thing in the world. "Why does people here know me?" He asked.

"And what makes you think I know the answer to that?" She asked and sat down oppisite him. She was trying to aviod this conversation, she hadn't come up with a good lie and she couldn't come up with one in this short matter of seconds. So she hoped that answer would be enough.

"Emma called you for a reason didn't she?" Robin asked. He was on to something and Regina could see in his eyes he knew that himself.

"I am the mayor of this town, if anyone comes to town or is harmed in our small town, I will be the first to know." Regina tried. It was a lame excuse that would have made the old Robin laugh.

"That's not why she called you. Is it?" He asked, she could hear in his voice he was not buying it for a second and she needed an escape way. "I heard you say my name before I had even said it. You know me don't you? Just like everyone else in this town seems to do. Did i live here as a child?" He asked. Could she lie to him? Come up with some story? Wouldn't it be weird for her to remember him if they are about the same age? She wouldn't.

"No you didn't, not here," She said with a sigh and got up to take the lasagna out of the oven. And putted it on the stove so it could cool down. And when she turned around Robin was standing right in front of her one hand on each side of stove, capturing her. Her mouth went dry and her heartbeat raised. She hadn't been so close to him in so long and it felt so good to be so close to him, but at the same time it hurted so much. She couldn't kiss him, hug him, touch him.

"Then Regina please tell me, I am going crazy. I cannot remember anything except where i live and who my family is. I have 1 and a half year worth of memory, and I don't know where the rest is." He said and looked at her with pleading eyes. "And i know that you know something. From the way you reacted when you came into the kitchen and when you saw me for the first time and the fact that you trust a complete stranger." He pointed out, trying to convince her.

"You wouldn't believe me if I tried," She said and picked the lasagna up moving away from his hold and putting it on the table. Robin sighed and sat down.

"Try me," He said. Regina shook her head. This was a very bad idea, he wouldn't believe her. He would think she was crazy. "Please," he added. And with a sigh she took a deep breath.

"Don't say I didn't warn you," She said. "Short story or long story?" she asked.

"Short, then long," He said. "And please tell me the real story" he added. Regina would, but she also knew that he wouldn't believe one word of what she said.

"Short story. You cheated on your wife with me and left town because she was dying and you needed to save her." Robin's eyes widened.

"I cheated on Marian, why?" He asked confused.

"Well this will sound crazy and you probably won't believe me, but here we go," She said. "We are not from here. We are from a fairytale land. The stories you have heard are kind of true, at least the characters within. You are in fact the famous prince of thieves Robin Hood." Regin said. Robin looked at her in disbelief and confusion.

"And who are you supposed to be?" He asked. He didn't sound like he believed her, but he didn't make her sound crazy either.

"I'll come to that part," she said. "Well anyway, you were in fact married to Marian. And you were happy, but she died shortly after she gave birth to Roland, even though you tried everything to save her," Regina said.

"But she's not dead? I know for sure," Robin said with his eyebrows raised in confusion.

"You should really let me finish this story," she sighed.

"Well for some reason you and your merry men escaped my curse that took us here to storybrooke. But some very screwed up things and a whole other story happened here so we had to go back to fairytale land. And that is where i meet you. You saved Snow White and I from getting killed by a flying monkey. The wicked witch doing, my sister too. Anyways, i returned the favour by saving little Roland later that day. And you being noble helped me break into my own castle. And after that I tried to scare you away, but you were too stubborn. And I hated you, you made me feel better and I hated that. I wanted to feel pain. I had lost my son and i deserved it. But to save the wicked witch we had to go back here and this time you came with us. We lost out memory of the year in the enchanted forest. And when we meet you helped me find clues to who the wicked witch was. And we started flirting, and I kissed you, and we started… Dating. And then I broke the curse and we got our memory back, but we continued our relationship. And you got my heart back after losing it. And for a very very short moment we were happy. Until Emma went throught the time portal and took your wife with her, and that's where you broke up with me. Said you had to keep your promise, it was the right thing to do. And the Snow queen froze Marian, so you asked for my help. And I helped you save her. But she was still frozen and you couldn't unfreeze her cause you were in love with me. And so one day you kissed me and we kind of were together. And the Snow queen was defeated and we unfroze Marian. And you told me that you choose me. But then Marian froze agian, the curse hadn't left. And the only way to save her was if she left the town. But the only problem is that when you leave you can't come back. And you left with her and your son…" She said. "That's why it makes no sense that you are here." She said catching her breath.

She realized how messed up it all sounded and what was even more crazy was that all of that had happened in two years.

"You are telling me that magic, fairytales, time portals and wicked witches are real?" he asked in disbelief. And Regina chuckled ironically. She was Henry trying to make everyone believe right now.

"That is why I told you, you wouldn't believe me," She said and stood up walking over to the kitchen. A small inch of her had hoped he would remember if she told him the story. That he'd get even a small flashback.

"I think I just need a little convincing," He tried, Regina turned around to look at him. He was serious. He wasn't running screaming away? Why?

"Easy task," She said and pointed at the lasagna making it fly around in the room with ease. Robin stared at it with his jaw open. Blinking a few times.

"How?" He asked and looked at her in confusion and amazement. "You have magic. Who are you?" He asked. She knew he was referring to the enchanted forest.

"I was the evil queen," She said and watched as Robin's eyes widened. "But Henry my son, he changed me," she added to assure him she was not dangerous.

"Wait a second. If we were together before. Does that make me… Reigns…" He stopped.

"Yes. You are Reigns father," She said and waited for a reaction. But he was frozen. She could understand why. This was way too much to process at once. And she would understand if he didn't believe her.

"I'm sorry that I can't remember you Regina," He said. And Regina huffed, even when he wasn't himself he was being damn noble. "How can I get my memory back," He asked.

"The only way I can think of is…" She stopped and looked up at him again. "True love's kiss," she said.

"So if I kiss you I will remember?" He asked standing up. Regina putted up a hand to stop him.

"As much as I would enjoy that…" She said her heart aching for a kiss from him. "No. In order for it to work both parts has to love each other," She said. Robin nodded.

"So I'll simply have to fall in love with you?" He asked. Simply, the word made her want to cry out in happiness, he thought it was simple and easy to fall in love with her. That alone made her heart flutter, but the fact that he was going to. The thought of his lips on hers already warmed her.

"I guess so," She said with a smile before sitting down and Robin doing the same. Both of them starting to eat the lasagna, that had gotten somewhat cold.


"So you are not going to run away from town as soon as you get out of here?" Regina asked when they had finished eating dinner.

"If what you are saying is the truth I cannot run away from my daughter, I know that the guy you remember left you. And I'm finding him to be very unworthy of your love, but I want to be in our child's life if it's the truth the only to find out is if i stay here," He said determined. Regina smiled, she loved the fact that he wanted to be in Reigns life. And she would want nothing more than that.

"Thank you," She said and continued when Robin looked confused at her. "For giving me chance, even though this sounds crazy, and for wanting to be in Reigns life. And I know you don't know me, but you being here. I have imagined that ever since you let go of my hand by the timeline." She said and felt a pang of tears starting to pressure her. But she didn't want to look week. Not in front of him and least of all when he didn't know her.

"Are you alright?" He asked when Regina got up and opened the little window in the kitchen. She needed some air. Needed an excuse to turn her bag to him so he wouldn't see the tears in her eyes. She was sad and happy and confused all at once, and she had been holding it in until now. "Regina?" He asked and walked over to her.

"I'm fine," She said when she felt his presence close to her again. And before she knew it she was being turned around carefully. "I just missed you so much," She said and practically threw herself in his arms. At first he was taken aback by her sudden movement, but not long after he held her tightly. And she stood in his arms for long moments enjoying being in his arms and enjoying his smell. Before she pulled out with a sigh.

"I'm sorry, that's probably not the best way to make you fall in love with me again," She said and laughed nervously. But Robin just cupped her cheeks.

"Regina I might not know you, but at least now I know how true your feelings are," He said and looked her in the eyes. and she could have sworn she saw a glint of something. Her Robin. But it was gone just as fast. And she pulled away taking a deep breath. "I should probably get some sleep," She said, Robin nodded getting the message right away.

"I'll see you tomorrow, right?" Regina asked as Robin walked out the door.

"Yes, first things in the morning," He said with a smile before starting to walk down the streets. She closed the door quietly and leaned her body on it trying to process everything that had just happened, everything she had dreamed off in so long.
