Our Time Together

Chapter Twenty-One

I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling, like I've been doing for the last couple of days. I aimlessly rub my still small stomach as I think of him. He should have come back by now. What's taking him so long to forgive me?

"Red." I hear her say in the back of my mind.

I'm confused about what she's saying and I rub her softly. It's been a few minutes and she hasn't said anything yet. Worried I pull back the covers and see what she was talking about. Red.

Tears start to form in my eyes as I confusedly look at a puddle of red blood between my legs. Am I having a miscarriage? Just the thought of it brings me to tears. I can't lose my baby girl.

"Baby, can you say something?" I say and I don't hear anything. "Can you kick me?" I ask as I start to cry hysterically.

I feel a faint kick near my belly button. What's happening? I need help and the only person I want to help me hates me. I take a chance anyway and make Robin appear in front of me with the little magic I have.

"What's wrong?" He asks as he sees my pained face.

"Robin." I say as I cry.

He walks over to me and sees the blood. His face turns pale as he tightly holds my hand. He gives me a small kiss on the forehead before he carefully lifts me in his arms.

"It's gonna be alright." He assures me but it does nothing to calm my nerves.

He opens my door and starts walking down the hallways. I stare up at him as he focuses on helping me. His brow is furrowed, sweat glistens on his forehead and his eyes are glued on me. I smile faintly before I bury my head into his shoulder.

Seconds later he kicks open the door of the infirmary and lays me on the bed. He disappears behind a door and then quickly returns with Doc by his side.

"Regina, are you all right?" Doc asks as he walks towards me.

"I don't know." I say and Robin grabs my hand.

"Have you been having consistent morning sickness?" He asks and I nod.

"Tenderness of the breast and hormonal insensitivities?" He asks and I nod once again.

"You're completely fine. Bleeding is normal in the first trimester." He says and I let out a deep breath.

"Thank the gods." Robin says before he places a kiss on my fingers that are still intertwined with his.

"I'll leave you two alone." Doc says before he leaves.

"Don't scare me like that!" I yell quietly as I rub my stomach.

Robin's hand is placed right on mine and he stops my movements. He smoothed out my nightgown and places a kiss on my stomach and smiles. The sight only can just bring me to tears.

"Don't yell at Rochelle. She didn't know any better." He says as he looks up at me.

"Rochelle?" I ask him and he nods.

"I had time to think about a name for our daughter. I wanted it to start with a 'r' and Rochelle sounds princess worthy." He says and the tears finally escape my eyes.

"I didn't mean to cause you stress and therefore lead to this. I just couldn't believe you made such a deal. I'm sorry and I'm sure we can keep her safe." He says with a protective arm on my stomach.

"I'm sorry." He says before he softly kisses my lips. "I love you."

"I love you too Robin." I say with a smile.

"You're welcome." I hear a voice in the back of my mind and I know it's her.

"You did this didn't you?" I say as I rub my stomach.
