Robins POV:
Regina was asleep for an hour now. I haven't fell asleep yet because to be honest I was worried. She hasn't said a word since the incident and that worries me.

I just look down at her and she looks so peaceful. Like this is the only moment she could get some peace and quiet. I looked at the clock on the night stand. 1:21am. I should go to sleep knowing I would have to be well rested for Regina tomorrow.

I move some hair out of Regina's face and kiss her forehead.

"I love you beautiful," I whisper before falling asleep.

Regina's POV:
I wake up only to realize that Robin wasn't in bed with me. This isn't normal. He is usually in bed when I wake up.

I had tear coming down my face as I got up to look for him. I was scared. Scared Hyde was going to come and get me. Or that Leopold was going to.

I walked into our bathroom. Nothing. Closet? Nothing. Downstairs? Nothing. My home office? Nothing. Living room, dining room? Still nothing. I checked the rest of the house. He was nowhere to be found.

This scared me. I want Robin to hold me and make me feel safe again. For him to tell me everything will be ok. I was scared to be without him.

I walked upstairs and put some pants on before putting some shoes on and walked to Granny's. I was scared to death that something bad happened to Robin and that I will never see him again. As I walked outside, the sky was a red color. I wonder why it is like that. Walking into Granny's everyone's eyes were on me as I opened the door. This caused me to whimper. I always hated being counter of attention. Especially after everything that happened.

Ruby seen and walked over to me. She had this mean look on her face.

"You aren't suppose to be in here," she said. I look at her funny. "After what you did. There is nothing you can do to get our trust back. You will always be the evil queen. You could never change," she said before she pushed me out the door.

I fall to the ground. What was happening? I got up and walked to the forest to see if Robin was there.

When I got there the Merry Men look at me. Little John then gets up.

"This is all your fault. You are the reason he took Robin," he said.

Someone took Robin? But who?

"We don't want you here anymore." He tells me before walking away.

As I walked away I felt something on my hands. I look down at them.

Blood.

Where did the blood come from? I wanted to freak out so badly.

I then hear something that caused me to look up. Leopold and Hyde. I whimper as I start to move away. I knew this was going to happen. Leopold and Hyde always get what they want. And what they want is me. So out of fear I stop moving away knowing Leopold would hurt me if I kept moving away from him. Hyde on the other hand. I don't know what he would do. But I was to scared to find out.

They got to me and Leopold grabbed my arm tightly.

"Looks like you are ours now," he said.

I shook my head no.

"Robin isn't here to save you not anymore." Hyde said.

Leopold then turned me around. There Robin laid. He was on the ground with blood coming out of his stomach. That explains where the blood on my hands came from.

I ran over to Robin and cried. I didn't want to lose him. I couldn't lose him. He was everything to me. I needed him to be here with me. All this made me cry harder. Robin hiccuped before taking his last breath in my arms. I shake him to see if he would wake up. But nothing.

I felt arms around me and pulling me away from Robin. So I did the one thing my mind told me to do. I screamed and kicked.

Robins POV:
Regina started screaming and kicking in her sleep. Making jump out of my sleep.

"Baby, wake up." I said shaking her. Nothing. "Regina!" I said loud enough to wake her out of sleep.

She looked up at me with tears running down her face. She didn't say anything, she just put her head in my neck crying while her arms wrapped around my neck.

"Shh, is was just a nightmare." I told her. She looked up at me.

"I-it f-f-felt s-so r-r-real," she said before sobbing into my neck again.

"I promise baby it was just a nightmare," I said again.

She didn't do anything except sob even more. I rubbed her back saying sweet things into her ear. Hoping that would help calm her down. Sure enough it did. Looking at the clock I sighed. It was 4:09am.

I looked down at Regina and she rubbed her eyes before closing them. I knew she was going to fall asleep any sec. So I lay us back down and hold her tight.

"Try and get some rest beautiful," I said.

It didn't take long before she was asleep again. I soon closed my eyes and fell asleep.

The next time I woke up it was 9:29am. I look down to see Regina still asleep. She probably isn't going to wake up for another hour. So I turn the tv on and put something on to watch.

Henry's POV:
Roland and I came back to my grandparents house last night. But they wouldn't say anything about my mom. I wanted to know if she was ok. I needed to know if she was ok but they didn't say anything except Robin took her to the hospital to get checked out.

Right now I was sitting at the table while my grandma cooked breakfast. Roland was still asleep. And gramps was sitting on the couch.

"Please tell me she is ok," I said quietly.

"Henry we don't know. Why don't you call Robin? I bet he will tell you if she is or not," Grandma said.

"Ok," I said before getting up and going out the front door.

I sit on the steps right outside the door before calling him.

"Hello?" He answer.

"Hi dad," I said.

"Hi lad. What is wrong?" He asked.

"I wanted to know how my mom is, is she ok?" I asked him.

"She is ok, she is still asleep but she did have a nightmare last night," he tells me. He is the one that is usually honest when it comes to my mom.

"But other than the nightmare she is ok? Right?" I asked.

"Yes Henry. Other than the nightmare she is ok. Just take care of Roland for me ok?" He said.

"Ok dad, thank you." I tell him.

"You're welcome," he said.

The more I talked to Robin the more I realized I needed him in my life. I look up to him the same way Roland looks up to me. Robin might not be my real dad but it is the love that matters. Right?

"Hey dad?" I said.

"Yes lad?" He asked.

"I love you," I said.

"I love you too Henry," he said.

I have never felt so happy to have a dad again.

"Bye dad and tell mom I love her when she wakes up," I said.

"Bye lad and I will," he said. Before we both hung up.

When my mom get betters Roland, Dad, and Mom are the only people I will need in my life to be happy. Don't get me wrong I love my grandparents and Emma. But Roland, Dad and Mom are more of a family to me.
