Hey guys! So I hope you liked the first chapter and I am looking forward to writing the rest of this story. I hope you enjoy the next chapter. ;)

Regina didn't know how she had made it through the lesson, it had been the hardest thing she had ever had to do, stand there and teach when all she could think about was the guy in the front row that she had been having an intense sexual and emotional relationship with. Once she had finished she dropped down in her chair and dismissed her class, she could see that Robin was lingering and that was only going to make what she had to do harder, they couldn't be together, she knew that, she knew that there was no way that anything could happen between them again.

It didn't take long for everyone to filter out and for it to be just Robin and her left in the room. She took a deep breath and buried her face in her hands. "Regina."

"No, don't speak." She held her hand up, "don't speak."

"Gina." He sighed, coming to her desk and leaning against it.

"No Robin! Stop, please."

"What the hell are we going to do?" He asked.

"Nothing, we aren't going to do anything."

"So we're just going to carry on like we were?"

"No! That can't happen Robin, it just can't, we can't see each other." She took a shuddery breath as she stood from her chair and avoided his gaze.

"What? No, Gina, you can't break up with me, please."

She whipped around and stared at him, "I am your teacher! Robin, we can't be together."

"I love you, I'm in love with you."

"I know and I'm sorry Robin," she shook her head, "we can't."

"You've got to be kidding me."

"This is my job; do you know what would happen if I was to be discovered having a relationship with a student? Hmm? No, okay, let me tell you, I would lose my job and could be criminally convicted! I am supposed to be in a position of trust and continuing to see you is malpractice, they'll throw the book at me! I could go to prison; do you understand?!" Okay, so she was being a little melodramatic with the whole prison thing, but she would most certainly lose her job and never be able to teach again.

"Regina do you love me?"

Oh god, how was she supposed to answer that? Of course she did, she loved him so much, but if she told him that then there was no chance that he would ever give up and just leave her be. How could she break his heart? Lie to him? She took a deep breath and shook her head, having to fight back the tears she stated, "I'm sorry Robin."

"I don't believe you! I don't!" He stalked towards her and she looked up at him, her heart was in her mouth as his blue eyes bored into hers, "I don't believe you." His hand snuck around the back of her neck and his lips crashed against hers, out of instinct her arms went around his neck and she pressed her body against his. It was wrong, she knew it was, but it felt so right, it felt perfect, so was it really all that wrong?

She kissed him back, as he hooked her leg around his hip; she could feel his member that was already half hard sticking into her leg and that was what brought her back down to earth. She tore her lips from his and dropped her leg, "stop, Robin I told you!"

"You want me; I know you do."

"I don't."

"You do."

"No, Robin, I don't love you, I'm sorry, it was fun while it lasted, but I think we both know that it wasn't going anywhere." She stated, going into defensive mode as she moved back behind her desk.

"I love you! We are in love with each other!"

"Robin, there's the door, I hope you don't raise this subject again, oh and don't forget the assignment." She looked down at her papers.

"Fuck off Regina, I'm not buying your bullshit, you can keep saying you don't love me and don't want me, but you can't even convince yourself of that."

"If you don't mind, I have classes to teach in a minute." She stood up and grabbed his bag, dropping it in the corridor, "if you would."

"I'm not letting this go, I promise you that."

"If you care about me, you will." She sighed, slamming the door behind him. Once he had left she slid down the door and hugged her legs to her, letting the tears flow, dampening her grey skirt suit. She felt hollow inside, how had everything gone so wrong so quickly? How had her life gone from being perfect to a disaster in the space of three hours?

She sobbed, she missed him already and felt absolutely terrible for treating him the way she had done. She had lied to him, attempted to break his heart, but in the process she had broken her own heart. She had to remind herself that it was for the best, because if they continued to see each other, it would only result in more heartbreak and possibly her not being able to work again in her dream job. To keep the job she loved, she would have to lose the man she loved, did she have her priorities right?

She swiped at her eyes, but it was no use she was wracked by sobs once again, this time even worse, it wasn't fair, it just wasn't; she'd waited so long to find love and now that she had her love was forbidden, how was that fair? Someone must really hate her, for her to have thought that she found love one minute and then have it cruelly ripped away from her the next.

There was a knock on the door and she stood up, running her hands over her face, "one minute," she sniffled, walking to her desk and removing a compact, seeing that her mascara had cascaded down her cheeks, she quickly took a makeup wipe and tried to get rid of the stains, but nothing would help her to combat the redness of her eyes. She took a shuddery breath and opened the door, "Archie, hi." She tried to smile, but it didn't reach her eyes and she knew that.

"Regina?"

"What?" She asked, begging herself not to cry in front of him, "what do you want?"

"Well we'd agreed on lunch, so I…"

"I'm sorry, I forgot, I, I don't really feel like it at the minute, I just… I… please could I be alone?"

"Regina has something happened? Something to upset you?"

"No," She sucked her lips in to stop them quivering, "nothing's happened, I'm fine." She was physically shaking, she knew she was and she probably looked like an emotional wreck.

"Forgive me, but you don't look it."

"I am!" She snapped, taking Archie back a little, "I'm sorry, please, I just want to be alone."

"Okay, well, you know where I am if you need me."

"Thank you." She nodded, closing the door on him and moving back to her desk. She took her phone out, she knew this was only going to hurt her more, but she pressed the home button and the picture of her and Robin appeared, she clicked on her messages and scrolled back. She didn't know why she did this to herself, it only made her hurt more, only intensified the pain, but she couldn't stop herself. She found a particular section of the conversation and shook her head.

'Regina, I have never felt like this about anyone, you are my everything and I am never going to let you go, I'm going to fight for you every day, fight for us, because you have soon become the most important thing in my life and I love you so, so much. My heart is yours now.'

She'd taken his heart, accepted his love and crushed it, tore it apart and it hurt her so badly, she daren't think about how he must be feeling. She shook her head and typed two words, 'I'm sorry,' and sent it to him. She knew that it wasn't going to make anything better, it certainly didn't make her feel better and she knew that it definitely wouldn't make him feel better.

There was another knock at the door, if it was Robin she didn't know if she would have it in her to tell him they couldn't be together; she still hadn't got over having to do it the first time. It was one thing telling him that she didn't want to be with him, but she had gone so far as to say that she wasn't in love with him and that was unforgivable, she knew it was.

Regaining her composure, she opened the door and there was a horde of students waiting to come in, she had completely forgotten about her first years, this was their first lecture, the first time she would meet them and she couldn't appear weak. She smiled at them slightly before standing back, "come in."

Once they were all sat and she had finished writing her name on the board she turned to look at them, took a deep breath and began. "I'd like to welcome you all, my name is Dr Regina Mills and I will be one of your lectures throughout your three years here. I'm going to make one thing clear right now, although I might like light heartedness now and then, anyone who is not serious about this course can leave this lecture room. I don't have time for people who don't want to learn, if that's you, then I suggest you pick another course. To everyone else, I look forward to teaching you…"

Regina pushed the door of her apartment open and kicked her heels off, she grabbed a glass and the bottle of wine she had just bought and headed to her bathroom. She ran the bathwater and sighed, glancing over at her sink something caught her eye, the second toothbrush in the glass she kept hers in, the hair gel that was on the shelf, next to his razor for all the times that he stayed over. She took a shuddery breath and dropped her jacket to the ground before working on the buttons on her blouse and unzipping her skirt, next was the underwear and she was fully naked, standing in front of the mirror. She closed her eyes, she didn't want to remember, but she did, it was a memory that she had once treasured, but today it hurt to think about it, to think about him…

Regina chuckled as she wriggled out of Robin's arms, "I need to go to the bathroom."

"Why?" He moaned, trying to kiss her as she covered her mouth.

"No."

"Gina." He pulled her back down and tried to kiss her again.

"Give me one second." She rolled her eyes, smacking his hands off her playfully, before walking into her bathroom and reaching for her toothbrush. She smiled at her reflection, forgetting that she had slept naked in his arms, that's how it seemed to happen these days; they'd fall into bed together, make love and fall asleep in one another's arms and that was just the best feeling in the world, knowing he was there with her.

As she brushed her teeth she felt warm arms sneak around her waist and she smiled, leaning back into him, meeting his eyes in the mirror. "Good morning," she whispered.

"Certainly is," he grinned kissing her neck.

"Hmm," she placed her toothbrush back down and her arms wrapped around his, their fingers linking together. She looked up at him and sighed, "I love you."

"I love you too." He nodded, tracing her stomach with his fingertips.

She chuckled and shook her head, "Robin, that tickles."

"What tickles, this?" Her continued with his hands, "or this?" Then he ran his stubble over her shoulder.

"Robin!" She shuddered causing him to burst into laughter. "You need a shave."

"I thought you liked my stubble."

"I do, but it prickles."

"You weren't complaining when I was between your legs."

"True." She nodded, a mischievous grin playing on her face. "In fact, care to test that theory?"

"Of course milady." Catching her by surprise he turned her around and picked her up, placing her on the counter facing the mirror so that she could see herself.

"What are you doing?" She asked, pulling her bottom lip between her teeth.

"What you asked me to do," his hands slipped down her body finding her knees and pushing them apart. He grabbed a chair and sat down on it, his legs either side of it.

He made his way up her legs his stubble brushing over her skin as he kissed her, open mouthed kisses that she knew would make a mark, but she didn't care, that's what make-up was for right.

His head inched up towards where she was aching for him, but just as he hovered over her he pulled back causing her to groan in disappointment. "Robin."

"All in good time milady." He quipped standing and moving his mouth back to her lips, his hands coming to her breasts; their kisses were searing hot and full of passion. Regina found herself rubbing against the counter trying anything to relieve the pressure between her thighs.

"Robin!"

"So impatient this morning."

"Who's fault is that?" She breathed as he brought his lips down her neck, causing her head to roll back. He continued his journey, finding her hard nipples and bringing one between his teeth resulting in a moan of pleasure from Regina. He sucked on her lightly before pulling back and giving the other the same treatment. "You are so beautiful, Regina, look at how beautiful you are." He gestured to the mirror at the other side of the bathroom, "I want you to watch yourself, watch us in that mirror and see how beautiful you are when you come."

Her breath hitched as she looked at herself in the mirror, her cheeks were rosy, her pupils dilated and her shoulder length hair was messy from a combination of sleep and his hands. Her nipples stood proudly having been worked by his amazing mouth. She looked back at him and he placed his hands on her cheeks, "do you see now what a beautiful woman you are, do you see the goddess who I worship?"

She nodded, not knowing if she'd be able to talk, but somehow she found her voice and whispered, "you make me feel that way."

"No Regina, it's not me, you are a Queen, my queen; now I want you to watch yourself come undone."

She tore her eyes from him and looked at herself again, feeling his stubble covered mouth venture closer, he placed an opened mouth kiss on the skin just above her clit, before dropping lower and finally putting his tongue where she needed it the most. "Oh yes," she watched in the mirror as her eyes rolled back, one of her hands going to his head and pressing him against her.

Robin was right, this was one of the most erotic moments of her life and she loved how he could make her feel like that, so sexy and completely adored at the same time. His hands were on her upper thighs holding her steady as he sucked her clit into his mouth, stimulating it with his tongue. She writhed due to his ministrations, her hands having to leave his hair as she held onto the counter. "Oh god Robin!"

She felt him smile against her and one of his hands came down to assist his mouth; he slipped two fingers inside her and she shot up, her back arching as pleasure wracked through her. He was right, she loved the stubble, the contrast between the roughness of his beard and his soft mouth against her skin; it was like heaven, complete and utter heaven. Watching what he was doing to her was driving her crazy, it was so intense and amazing at the same time.

She brought her legs up over his shoulders as he sped up his actions, pulling back he removed his tongue from her clit and she cried out, "no, Robin, don't stop." Then he blew cool air on the area that he had been concentrating on with his tongue, causing a powerful sensation to run through her and she was flinging her head back, tearing her eyes from the mirror as his mouth descended on her once more.

She wanted to see, wanted to watch, so forced her head back up, forced her eyes to the mirror. She was so close, so, so close…

There was a knock on the door, breaking Regina's trance, she shook her head and turned off the bath water before grabbing her robe and pulling it around her. She needed stop thinking about him, but it was rather hard when there were reminders of him everywhere, reminders of the love they shared, a love that they wouldn't be able to have anymore, a love that had to be over.

Taking a shuddery breath, she made her way to the front door, "who is it?"
