Just learning to fly

Chapter 10

Robin woke up first, as usual. He still had his arms wrapped around his love, their bodies pressing against each other, almost flush. He could feel the bump that was growing bigger every day against his stomach. She looked so peaceful as she slept, the terror that had taken over her features the previous night completely erased. She stirred in her sleep, muttering something that he couldn't understand. He kissed her nose and her forehead crinkled as she groaned in her sleep.

"It's time to wake up, my love." He whispered in her ear.

He bit his lip to keep from laughing out loud as she buried her head under the covers, trying to savour the last remnants of sleep. Before her pregnancy, mornings has been very different. Regina had always been the one up at the crack of dawn and he had often woken up to an empty bed with the smell of breakfast in the air. While he knew how to cook himself a good meal, and enjoyed it too, he always found that when Regina cooked, it tasted so much better.

Robin pulled the covers off of her and Regina groaned, curling up and hugging her pillow. Looking at her now, he couldn't believe that this woman that was currently trying to cling to sleep had ever been as feared as she had been.

She groaned. "Do I have to get up? If I move, I feel like I'm going to be running to the bathroom and never coming out until this baby is born."

He looked at her sympathetically. "You know what? You can stay in bed for a little bit longer while I go get the boys ready for School and make breakfast. When breakfast is ready, I'll come get you and we can have a nice breakfast together. How does that sound?" He asked her.

"Have I ever told you that you are the best boyfriend ever?" Was all she said in reply.

"Only a few times." He said as he closed the door.

He walked down the hall and knocked on Henry's door.

"What?" The teenager grunted from within.

Robin eased the door open and stuck his head inside. Henry was still sprawled out on his bed.
The teenager slammed his eyes shut before retreating underneath the covers to escape the light that now flooded his room.

"You have ten minutes to be downstairs." Robin informed him before exiting the room.

Robin chuckled to himself as he walked to Roland's door to wake him up. Teenagers could be so much fun sometimes.

Robin knocked softly on his son's door before turning the handle, pocking his head into the room as he did so. Roland was sitting quietly on his bed playing with the monkey that Regina had given him so long ago.

"Time to get dressed and come down for breakfast." He informed the little boy, who in response nodded his head and slid off of his bed to pick out some clothes for the day.

When Robin and Roland had come back to Storybrooke, Regina had generously offered for them to come and live in her mansion with her. She had even converted two of her guest bedrooms into personalized, permanent bedrooms for the two of them. She had even decorated the two rooms using her magic to make them look just perfect. Robin hadn't used his since they had made up, deciding to fight for love instead of letting Zelena get in between them.

Robin made his way downstairs to start making breakfast for his family. He had decided that omelettes were going to be on today's breakfast menu, as they were Regina's favourite and everyone else liked them.
He got out all of his ingredients and everything else that he needed for making the best omelettes ever. When they were done, he went to the bottom of the stairs and yelled for Henry and Roland to get downstairs as breakfast was ready.

They soon arrived and dug into the omelettes. When they were done, they diligently put their dirty dishes into their dishwasher as Regina had taught them, grabbed their lunches and backpacks and headed out the door to the bus stop.
