The Guests

"Now lets talk about something a bit more light-hearted like..." He puts on a fake pondering face "oh I don't know" and he continues to look up before tilting his head down and meeting my gaze "our wedding."

I automatically smile at just the thought. Through all of this I've forgot about the weeding. Like I knew we were engaged but I hadn't had time to think about things like my dress, or the cake, or the colors, nothing. I let my mind wander to all the things we could do and then I started to realize, we can't afford a wedding not now at least. "What's wrong love?" He questions as apparently I'm not very good at keeping my thoughts on the inside. I didn't want to ruin his spirits so I shook it off by telling him it was nothing. He of course didn't believe me but he didn't push the subject further.

"Well let's talk about guests, who do you want to invite?" I walk over to grab a piece of paper and a writing utensil and I immediately miss his hands on my waist. I get the chills from lack of his body heat. We both sit at the table across from each other an begin. "Okay definitely Emma and Mary-Margaret. " And I scribble their names down, along with their partners Killian and David, and their children Henry and Neal. "ooh and John too!" And I write his name down as well. "Who else?" I ask while looking away from the paper and towards Robin.

"Well I think we should put Roland on the list since all though he's obviously coming, he still counts as a guest." I nod my head and write Roland down. "Hey maybe you should invite that girl Ruby?" He suggests. I like the idea she had been a huge help and lately we've been growing closer then just co-workers. So I proceed in scribbling Ruby's name on the paper.

I paused trying to think of more people but realize neither of us have much family, and neither of us have many friends. "Can we invite Will?" Robin asks. "Ya if course!" I exclaim.

"Can you think of anyone else?" And continue to ponder some more.

"Honestly no." He says chuckling,"I guess we're kinda loners." And I giggle with him.

"Okay now what colors, or theme, or whatever they call it." I'm obviously not an expert at this wedding stuff. He stops and cups my hands between his, "I want you to do whatever you want. Any colors any location, you choose." I huff because I'm already not good at this. I honestly think he was probably getting sick of talking about weddings but I brushed the thought of my shoulder.

"I forgot to mention, where's Roland?" And he gets up from the table, walking towards the kitchen. "He's with his 'new best friend'"

"Oh ya, and who is that?" I ask turning in my chair to face him.

"Henry." He states simply while pouring himself a glass of orange juice.

"Henry? As in Emma's Henry?"  I question is disbelief. Poor Henry is having to hang out with a boy half his age who probably bugs him like crazy.

"Yup. He's taking quite a shine to the boy."

"Humph." I say shrugging and getting up. I walk to the bedroom and try to find something to wear today. I don't want to go fancy but I don't want to go too casual so I pull on a pair of dark wash jeans, a dark blue blouse that has a gorgeous scoop neck, and a black leather jacket over the whole thing. I then proceed to the bathroom and apply a think coat of makeup; some nudish colored lipstick that had a hint of pastel pink, some eyeliner, and some mascara.

I walk out and Robin stops and looks at me. "What?" I question as I pull open the fridge.

"Maybe it's just cause I haven't seen you in a while but you look hot." I giggle in return sand start to peel
the wrapper off of my Greek yogurt. I jump as I feel his warm muscular arms wrapped around my waist. He begins to kiss my neck and nibble on my ear, his scruff tickling my face.

"Robin..." I huff "why do you always choose to do this after I've done my makeup."

"I can stop whenever you want, all you have to do is ask." I so badly wanted to tell him to stop but I couldn't bring myself to do it. I slowly turned in to liquid and he continued and I melted at his touch. I let my head fall back and I tilt my head to give him more access to my skin. I turn around and whisper a small 'I hate you' before pressing my lips against his.

He lifts me up and and places me on the counter and we continue this spontaneous make out session before I pull back. I walk back to the bathroom and fix my makeup and then I begin to eat my yogurt. Once I finish I throw the container away and put my spoon in the dishwasher. Robin is now in the room starting to get dressed himself, and I head towards the door. "I'm gonna get Roland!" I holler and I hear a muffled 'okay love be safe!' And I smile before grabbing my purse and heading out the door.

A/N: sorry kinda a filler chapter.
