Outlaw Queen || I Never Thought (on hold)

Chapter 21

"Regina," Granny says as I walk into the diner by myself. I lay my black coat on the hanger as I dust of my blue dress and walk to a booth.

"Regina, what would you like today?" Granny asks as she then thinks," Oh the usual right? Coffee and an Apple Pie?"

"Actually water but I sure do still want an apple pie," I say as I nod my head and smile.

I look down at my wrist to check and see if their has been any marks that have appeared from the dream last night. No marks but their is my bracelet that Robin gave me when we found out I was pregnant. It is golden with a loop in the center where a silver apple is placed. I start to twiddle with the bracelet when I hear footsteps come up behind me.

" Eh Regina. What might you be doin' here?" The girl says in an Australian accent.

"Tinker Belle! What did you do to your clothes?"

"I go by Tink now but I thought black leather pants and a green shirt would look better than that dress. So Regina what have you been doing lately? I haven't seen you since Hook was taken away."

I watch as Tink goes to the other side of the booth and sits down as Granny brings my water and apple pie to the table.

"Regina? Where'd the coffee go? Coffee was like your best mate." Tink says as she jokes slightly and hits my arm laying on the table.

I smile as Tinks eyes open huge," What?" Tink bursts out laughing and saying," I told you the man with the Lion Tattoo was yours. Oh Robin really did it this time didn't he?"

I stand up over the table and grab Tinks shirt and whisper in her ear," Say one more thing and it might be the last thing you say."

Tink backs away from me and leans back in the booth. She puts her hands on her head and then leans her head back also. She smiles and starts laughing," Oh Regina...ha ha. Okay I am done laughing now. So how's it been going?" She says as she tries to hold back her laughs.

"Well I came to get things off my mind. My son got hurt by a dark figure the other day. We found a mark and it turns out a woman named Nesoki Black hurt Roland. We don't know the reason or what she is doing and it is stressing me and the baby," I say as I sip my water.

"Regina!" Tink whispers as she grabs my hand and says," Nesoki Black? She was one of the fiaries that would come to Blue every month to get pixie dust. Blue would give her more attention than me when she was supposed to teach me how to become a better fairy," tears start in Tink's eyes but then she wipes them away and says,"She is bad news. She killed Summer, my old friend, because she gave the wrong amount of dust. You need to go before someone hears." She finishes still whispering," We need to go to your house now."

I listen to Tink, grab her hand as we disappear out of the dinner to my house.

~•~•~~••~~•
I fall as we transport to the house. Robin comes and runs over to me and helps me up and says," You really need to stop doing that mi lady."

"Where's Roland?" Tink asks as she looks at Robin.

"Why what's wrong?" Robin asks as Roland walks up behind him and hugs his leg.

"Hey sweetie. I need to talk to you for just a second. You can bring Robin with us if you need to," as she holds out a hand to Roland.

Roland grabs Tink's hand then grabs mine and says," I want my mommy to come too."

Tink grabs Roland and brings him upstairs into his room where we find Henry sitting on the bed. We close the door as Henry sits up confused.

Tink grabs Roland's wrist and looks at the mark of the demolished heart. She runs her fingers over the mark and says falls back onto the bed staring at the ceiling as her eyes turn red then back to its normal color.

"Tink!" I scream as I help her back up.

"I ... I remember," Tink says as a tear falls down her face. I sit beside Tink and hug her slightly,"What do you remember Tink?"

"It was me. Robin. Roland. Henry....Regina. I gave that Posion Apple Pie to you. Roland ate it. I watched Roland from the staircase as he ate it. But...but it wasn't me. I didn't mean to hurt him. I couldn't control myse-" Tink stops as she starts to scream in pain. She falls to the floor grabbing her arm then is soothed as Roland touches her.

I grab Tink's arm and slide up her sleeve to see the exact same mark on my friends wrist as is on my sons wrist.

"Regina?" Tink asks as she looks at me worriedly.
