Run.

Part 1 Chapter 7

Robin and I continued to meet for three weeks.

Three wonderful weeks.

"Hello!" I say sitting down across from him.

"Hey." he says.

"Why so serious?" I asked him, confused.

"Um... Regina, I've been thinking..."

"About... what?"

"Your freedom."

"Shh!" I shushed him harshly, "Not here. Outside."

I took his hand and led him out the door, and into a small ally.

I turned around to face him.

"Sorry, it's just, if the day comes that I do run away someone might have heard our conversation and turn you in." I say, "What were you going to say?" I say.

"Regina, you told me your mother is gone. Maybe her barrier spell left with her..."

"That's ridiculous."

"Have you tried to leave ever since she left?" he asked.

I thought about it for a second.

It could work.

Maybe I can leave.

"Regina..." he began. I looked up at him.

"Run away with me."

Robin wants me

to run away

with him.

I don't care that I had only met him three weeks ago. I stand on my tip toes and kiss him. He kisses me back. I cannot be any happier right now.

"So I'm guessing that's a yes?" he asks smiling.

I nod.

We walk hand-in-hand back to the place where I normally leave him.

"When and where do you want to meet up to discuss this?" he asks.

"The ally. Same one." I say and kiss him softly. I say goodbye to him and go back to the palace.
