'He left two months ago. Get over him already.' She kept telling herself, over and over. Though she couldn't do it. The only thing she could do was bit her lip and push through the rest of the day. She had spent two hours just running her hands over the picture of them. "I miss you." She said to herself. Soon enough she couldn't take the pain of looking at them, and knowing she can't have it anymore. So she threw it. Against the wall as hard as she could, shattering it on the wall. She turned around and left the vault, not bothering to clean up the glass. She walked for what felt like hours until she finally stopped. She stood at the bridge, looking at the rushing waters below. 'Should I jump. He wouldn't know about it. He's not coming back. He can't. It's not like anyone here would care. They would throw a celebration. Jump and yell, yay the evil queen is dead. Henry wouldn't care for long. He would get over it soon, Emma would put some trash about her in his mind.' She slammed her hands onto the railing in frustration. It shook slightly. 'Do it. Just get it over with. Go see Daniel again. Someone who wouldn't leave you alone, and broken. Not on purpose anyway.' She stood on the railing. Her light body didn't add much weight on the thin iron bars and caused her to be practically weightless. 'I'm coming home, Daniel.' She said before slightly leaning forwards and tumbling into the rushing waters below.
She didn't struggle. She didn't try to swim. She just let the water take her where it wanted. Soon everything faded out and she slipped under the darkness, for what felt like forever.
She could hear a steady BEEP, BEEP, BEEP. 'A heart monitor?' She thought opening her eyes. The room was white, bare, the only things that were there were the monitors she was hooked up to and a chair. But whos? She laid her head back and pushed the button to call for the nurse. She needed a warm blanket for her cold body. 'How long has it been since I jumped?' She asked herself as the nurse walked in.
"Yes, Miss Mills? It's good to see your finally awake." She smiles walking further onto the room. "You needed something?"
"Yes, a warm blanket? And answers I guess." Regina replies trying to move her hands to her shoulders to warm them. She really was cold. 'Why was it so cold in here? Or was it just her. The nurse didn't seem to be cold.'
"I'll get the blanket. The answers are for the being that uses that chair. You gave her quite a scare." She says leaving to retrieve the blanket.
"Ok?" Regina questions quietly. 'She? Emma? How did she know where I was. No one was following me.' She says to herself, clenching her jaw in thought. She didn't even feel the soft hand tough her foot until she heard the voice speak.
"Regina?" Snow spoke, soft and sweet. 'Great.' Regina thought rolling her eyes. 'Here we go. A hope speach.' She thought getting a hug from snow, and having drops touch the base of her neck. "I'm so happy to see your alive." She said pulling back and looking Regina in the eyes, tears slowly creeping down her cheeks.
"What is wrong with you?" Regina asked, unaware of the small movement from her step-daughter. "Why are you crying? How did you find me?" She asked getting another hug from her, silent sobs were heard, making Regina wonder if people actually cared for her.
"I almost lost the only form of a mother in my life and your asking what's wrong with me?" She pulled away wiping her cheeks. "Besides, I saw you floating in the river while David and I were walking. I couldn't just let you drown."
"Snow, that's what I wanted." She said looking at the girl. She could see her heart break through her eyes.
"Regina. Why would you ever want that? You broke my heart, Henry's, Davids, Emmas, it even broke granny's and the dwarfs. You are loved here. Don't ever forget that." Snow stated, drying her tears with what Regina would guess was a tissue.
"Are you saying that to make me feel better or do you mean it? Because it doesn't seem possible that love in present in this town anymore."
"Just because Robin isn't here doesn't mean people don't love, and care for you." Snow grabbed Regina hands, squeezing them lightly.
"Can I see him? Henry?" She asked a ping of guilt hitting her like a sack of bricks.
"Yeah, I'll go get him. He's in the waiting room." She said hugging her step-mother once more before standing and leaving the room.
Regina rubbed her arms as the nurse walked back in slinging the long heated fabric over her legs and arms. Regina tightened the blanket around her shoulders with a, thank you, to the nurse.
"No problem." She said and left the room just as Henry walked in. He ran to her and squeezed her shoulders tightly.
"Mom?" He asked when she didn't hug him back. She was still in shock of him barging in, causing her heart rate to speed up.
"Henry." She said quietly, almost as if she was relived to have him hugging her for the first time since Emma got here. She wrapped her arms around him, not wanting to let him go again.
"Please don't do that ever again." He wimpered into her ear. Still trying not to cry his eyes out.
"I'm sorry I ever did." She said to him squeezing him tighter. She was crying now.
2 Months Later
Regina is still in the hospital. She's gotten better and will be released within the next few months. There have been two pictures taken. One of her and Emma, who's she's grown quite fond of. The other of her and Henry. Both are on the wall across from her and she glances at them everyday.
Sorry this was long(kinds the opposite of what I though it would be,) and didn't have any of Robin. But the next chapter DEFINITELY will.
