Regina's POV:
I picked at my food not wanting to eat. I just wanted Robin. Why am I getting so attached to Robin so quickly?
"Regina dear please eat," my father said.
"I'm not hungry daddy," I say wanting to cry again.
"Are you ok sweetheart?" He asked.
"Yes daddy I'm ok. I'm just tired," I said.
We continue to eat dinner and make conversation till everyone was done. David, Emma, Killian, and I went into the study room to hang out.
I couldn't help but start to think of Robin. And I wanted to cry again. I don't know why I act like a child when it comes to Robin leaving. But I'm scared he will leave me like Daniel did and cheat on me I guess.
"Gigi, you ok?" Emma asked.
"No," I whisper with tears filling my eyes.
"What's wrong?" David asked taking my hand into his.
"I want Robin," I chocked out before letting the tears fall. David pulled me into a hug.
"When I ask you this I'm not trying to be rude. But why are you so sensitive when it comes to Robin leaving and not being able to be around him?" David asked.
"Because, he makes me feel safe. And I'm scared once he leaves something bad will happen to him or to me and we will never see each other again. Or he is going to leave me for some other girl," I sobbed.
"Regina, Robin isn't going anywhere." He tells me.
"You don't know that," I said.
"But I do. Robin isn't like that," he tells me.
The door opened and it was my mother. She looked at me with a disgusted face. I forced myself to stop crying.
"Why are you crying?" She asked harshly.
"Nothing," I said.
"Ok then. I came to tell you guys that it is getting late," she said.
"Oh ok," Emma said.
We said our goodbyes before I watched them leave. As I was walking to my room my mother just had to stop me. She grabbed my arm tightly causing me to whimper in pain.
"You are not to leave this castle for the rest of the week," she tells me.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because you need to study more," she said.
"Don't you think I have studied enough lately? That is all I have been doing," I tell her.
"I don't care. Being queen is more important right now," she told me.
"But so is me living my life!" I yelled.
The next think I feel was my mother slap me causing me to fall to the ground. I hold my check with tears streaming down my face because I could feel the burning come onto my check. It hurt so bad.
"Don't you ever raise your voice at me again Regina!" She yelled.
She grabbed the same arm she grabbed earlier but this time even hard. I cried out in pain. I'm definitely going to have a bruise there tomorrow.
She then pulls me to my feet and made sure I was facing her.
"Go to your room and don't come out. I don't want to see you until breakfast," she snapped.
"Yes ma'am," I said before running up to my room crying.
