"Regina! Regina!"

"What the hell?" Regina said to herself as she went to open the door. "Will, what the-" she didn't even get to finish he kissed her. Hard. She moaned as he pushed her back into the house and shut the door.

"Choose Robin." Will said, cupping her face in his hands.

"Will, what's going on?" Regina asked, taking a moment to recover from that kiss.

"I talked to the imp."

"Gold."

"Correct. He said that a soulmate is essentially so much more than what you think. Rejecting your soulmate is the same thing as tearing two souls apart. It could cause you physical and emotional pain, and I'm not about to put you through that. Just choose Robin."

"Will, I have been through a lot of pain in my life, every kind. If that is the price of what I feel is my happiness, then so be it. Soulmate or not, if I don't want to be with Robin, then I won't. It's my decision." She pulled him over to the couch and sat down. "I appreciate what you tried to do."

"I don't want you hurt. I care too much about you to let that happen. I love you."

"I love you too." She said. "I know this is just as hard for you as it is for me and- What?"

"That's the first time you said you loved me." He answered.

"Well, I do. Very much." He smiled and pulled her into his lap to kiss her. "I do love you Will Scarlet."

"But you also love Robin Hood, you're soulmate."

She sighed and kissed him again. "I know."

"I almost wish he never came back." Will muttered.

"I know." She kissed him again and the kisses quickly grew more frequent and passionate. Will laid her on the couch and she purred as he leaned down to plant gentle kisses on her neck. It made her hungry for more and she grabbed his jacket and yanked it off. She was about to do the same to his shirt when there was a knock at the door and she growled. "It never fails, every time." She stood up and magically dressed herself in black tights and a flowing blue tanktop. When she opened the door, she was greeted by a familiar dimpled grin. "Roland!"

"Gina!" Roland leaped into her arms and she laughed.

"What are you doing here?" She asked.

"Dad said we could come visit. Is that alright?"

"That is wonderful, dear. I'm so happy to see you again." Regina grinned and kissed one of his dimples. He was too terribly cute for his own good. "Have you eaten yet?" She glanced up at Marian and Robin.

"Nope."

"Well then, what would you like? Hmm?"

"Apple...pancakes."

"Apple pancakes it is."

"Can the apples be from your tree?" He asked.

"Absolutely. Why don't you and Robin and Will go pick some. Me and Marian can go get everything ready."

He happily leaped down and grabbed his dad's hand and pushed Will outside.

Regina smiled and motioned to Marian.

"Sorry for barging in on you like this." Marian said.

"Nonsense, I love Roland. I'm always happy to see him."

"I would have stayed in New York, but Robin didn't want to leave me alone. I've been a bit sick these past few weeks."

"You are welcome here, Marian." Regina said. "Always welcome." She and Marian got to work and she thought about why Robin had brought Roland to Storybrooke. It was probably to win her over to his side, which it was kind of doing. She absolutely loved being with Roland, and yet it had only served to remind her that he was still married. She wondered why they didn't just get a divorce if he wanted to be with her so bad. Then again, were they even legally married in this world?

"Regina?"

"Uh, yes?" Regina quickly turned her focus back to Marian.

"I was wondering how things were going with Robin." Marian asked.

"Well, I suppose." Regina answered.

"You haven't decided, have you?"

"Nope." Regina sighed, pulling out the ingredients she would need. "It's been tense, difficult, nerve wracking."

Marian smiled. "It doesn't have to be. Who do you love?"

"Both of them. It's not that simple. But how about we talk about you instead of me. I've been doing that for almost two days. How have you been?"

"Great. New York is wonderful, but Roland missed his friends in Storybrooke. I.e, you." Marian shook her head. "Gina is awesome and Gina is the best. When can we go see Gina?"

"Sorry."

"Don't be. He has good taste in who he picks to love. So does Robin…"

"Are you okay with this? Robin leaving to try and be with me?"

"I told you before, Regina. If Robin's heart leads him to you, then I am happy for the both of you either way. He's in love with you, and I won't stand in the way of his happiness...or yours." She trailed off slightly and and Regina could tell something was off about her.

"Is something wrong?" Regina asked.

"No." Marian said, a little too quickly for the former queen's liking, but she let it go. Roland returned with an armful of the biggest apples he could find. Robin and Will both came behind him, covered in leaves and dirt.

"What happened to you?" Regina asked, raising an eyebrow in amusement.

"Just uh...fell out of the tree." Will said.

She rolled her eyes and waved her hand, cleaning them up. "Now, to make those pancakes." Roland cheered and they set to work. They made the pancakes, plus some bacon and dug in. Talking was surprisingly easy among them, considering the completely screwed up pasts between them. Roland was an endless river of questions about everything he missed in Storybrooke and Regina was happy to answer them. She asked him all about his new school and his friends and everything. When they were finished eating, she magically cleaned the dishes and they went back into the living room.

"Gina, can we go get some ice cream?"

"You just ate Roland." Marian said.

"Yes, but...ice cream." He said, as though that explained everything.

"This a good idea, Hood?" Will asked. He and Robin were still in the kitchen, watching the two women dote over his son. "I understand having Roland to win over Regina, but is it wise, bringing your wife to your soulmate's house?"

Robin smirked. "Do not be upset Scarlet. Perhaps Ro can give you a grammar lesson."

"What now?" Will looked confused.

"Maybe he knows what take care of someone means. Not sleep with them." Robin hissed.

"For your information, outlaw, she was the one who kissed me first, and she hasn't complained not once until you showed up expecting to be welcomed back with open arms."

"We are soulmates. We are meant to be together."

"Regina can do whatever the bloody hell she wants to, she doesn't need fate to tell her what to do."

Robin rolled his eyes, but smiled as he walked into the living room and sat down next to his wife. Roland had run upstairs to get something for Regina and Will came to sit next to her.

Marian turned to face him. "I'm pregnant." Robin's smile slowly dimmed.

"What?"

"Well that's amusing." Regina said with a smirk.

"Why's that, love?" Will asked.

"Because I am too."
