Fight For Your Fairytale [Regina & Robin||OUaT]

12-Soulmates? What?

Robin arrived at the castle shortly after the sun had set down. It was enormous to say the least. He wasn't sure if it was right to knock or if he had to sneak in, but he decided to go easy with the Dark One. The large door opened on its own and he heard an annoying voice from they inside.

"Last door on your left, dearie"

It was him. Robin had heard he was some kind of monster in a human form, but he never had to deal with him in person. And he wouldn't now either, if it wasn't for Regina. He walked to the end of the hallway and entered the room where Rumple was.

He was sitting on a huge chair that looked like a throne, at the end of a really long dinning table. Why is everything here huge?, he wondered as he admired the whole room.

"So are you gonna stand there and watch or will you tell me why you're here?", he snapped.

"Yeah, I saw that announcement of yours on some trees in the woods and here I am."

"Aha, many people have come with false information in order to gain help from me. Why do you think I should let you see this girl?"

"Well, maybe you shouldn't, but you'll never know if you don't let me."

"That's good. I like you...?"

"Robin Hood"

"Robin Hood, as the Prince of Thieves in the Enchanted Forest?"

"That's me"

"Okay, now I don't have all the time in the world, so let's go", he said and headed towards the room he kept her.

It was starting to get dark outside, but with a flick of his wrist all the lights turned on.

As they walked, they passed a room where Robin thought he saw Will, but he wasn't sure and he didn't want to annoy the Dark One with stupid questions. Finally, they were here.

"Regina!", Robim exclaimed as he saw her lying on the bed, pale and skinnier than he remembered her to be.

"What did you do to her?", he turned to that monster.

"Me? Ah don't know what happened, do you?"

"No?"

"Yeah I found her with a man in the valley of red poppies and I took them both here. That man is okay now, kissed by his true love but I couldn't find hers. So here she is sleeping to death"

"Death? No no no, this can't happen to her."

"Oh but it hasn't. Yet."

"Wait did you say true love's kiss?"

"Aha, why?"

"You expect me to kiss her and wake her up? How do you know this is true love?"

"I thought that was obvious and well I don't"

"So what if in the end it isn't?"

"I'll find another man. Now stop talking and try!"

A moment of silence followed. Robin thought his mind would explode from all these thoughts filling it. True love? How can it be? I've never kissed her again, or told her I love her. I hadn't even admitted it to myself a few days ago.

If it is and she wakes up what will we do then? Can I escape Cora and Zelena? Even though she has helped me, I know she feels something for me.

And if Regina doesn't wake up? Then what? I think I'll be so dissapointed. He'll find another one? Oh but he doesn't know that the only men Regina knew was my Merry Men. And I don't think she loved any of them, not more than friends love each other.

But then she'll die. How could I possibly live without her? I couldn't. I couldn't survive another loss. My heart was already in pieces that were mended just a little with Regina's presence. But if she goes too, it'll shatter.

No. There has to be another way. Maybe if we go back and find Lake Nostos? It is known to bring back anything you've lost. Maybe she'll live again. Yeah, that's what I'll do.

He was interrupted by that imp's silly voice.

"Tick tock, dearie. It's nothing but a kiss."

"You really don't know what true love means, do you?"

"You don't know what I do or don't know. Now get to it or my patience will vanish."

With his words Robin started walking closer and closer to her. She was so beautiful, even in this state. She deserves to live. I can't let her go. And without knowing it he was now kissing her. Her soft lips that he longed to touch all this time since he met her were now under his. But no response came. He took a step back and looked at her full of hope.

"Ugh it didn't work. Come on, leave her alone.", the imp said.

"What? No! I know her and I love her and that's why I won't leave until she wakes up. Or until you let me take her with me!"

"What made you think that you could live happily ever after, in case you waked her up? She's mine and she won't leave until I say so!"

"Then say so NOW, cause if not I'll stay here too!"

"You can't-"

"Robin?", a voice came so low and weak that it could bearly be heard. It took me a second to realise it.

"Oh my God, Regina! You scared me to death! Are you alright?"

"Erm, I think so...where am I?", she asked, but before I could speak she turned and faced Rumplestiltskin.

A scared look appeared on her face and she shifted under her covers.

"Why does everyone that wakes up have that look on their faces?"

"Maybe because you're the Dark One?", Robin said.

He really wanted a moment with Regina now.

"Here I woke her up. Can you please leave us alone now?"

"Aw you two lovebirds need some time, huh? Fine but just for now. Don't get used to me being good.", he said and left the room.

"How..I mean..what am I doing here? And you...I was trying to-"

"I know you have a lot of questions but you can relax and I will tell you everything."

"Wait..the last thing I remember is sleeping next to Will -yeah I think he's here too. But he had said that only true love's kiss can wake someone up from the smell of those poppies. How did you..?", she said blushing.

"I kissed you. I had doubts at first but I did. And now you're awake"

"So that means.."

"That we're soul mates, I guess.", Robim said with a smile on his face, before he realised how much he was asking from her, "But if that's not okay with you I will back up and-"

She blushed a little more, if that was possible and said: "Actually no Robin. It's more that okay. It's perfect. And I'm much better now that I know that."

Then she hugged him as if it was something she wanted to do for a long time. And it was the best hug he had ever been given.

They're finally together! Yaaay!! Outlaw Queen feels are killing me. Seriously this always happens. I can relate them to everything! So, I hope this makes you wanna read more and maybe vote? Any comments will be appreciated. Of course I won't let them relax yet. There are more difficulties to come to them. *evil laugh*

Till next week,
