"We will go to Lady Tremaine's Manor tomorrow, so rest up." Tiana said as the group went to their tents. Robin left her bow and arrows next to her bed in the tent she shared with Alice. The young archer looked at her girlfriend worried.
"Alice, I want you to stay here tomorrow" Robin knew Alice wouldn't like it, so she wasn't surprised when she saw her girlfriend's angry face.
"No, I'm going with all of you, I will fight" Alice tried not to scream, she didn't need the whole resistance to know about their fight. Robin sighed.
"Look, Alice, it's going to be dangerous" Robyn argued, but the other girl didn't give in.
"I can defend myself, Robin thank you very much" Alice didn't care about yelling anymore.
"Alice..." Robin started to say but Alice cut her off.
"I don't need you!" Alice yelled. Both girls started at each other in awkward silence. Finally, the young archer grabbed her bow and arrows and left the tent clearly annoyed. Alice sat up on her bed and sight. As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she regretted them. She wanted to go after Robin, but she also knew that both needed a little time to cool off.
Alice checked the watch she got from Wonderland. It had been an hour since Robin had stormed off. Deciding enough was enough, the blonde girl put on her cloak and got out of the tent in search of the archer. She wasn't in the camp, but Alice was not surprised, she figured the other girl needed space as well. She walked to the spot her and Robin used to get away a little from the group. That's where she saw her. Robin was practicing with her bow, she did that when she was stressed out and needed to calm down. Alice took a deep breath and headed towards the other girl. Robin, hearing footsteps behind her, turned around to meet her girlfriend's apologetic face. However, Robin wasn't in the mood, so she kept shooting her arrows using a near tree as a target.
Alice wanted to cry when Robin ignored her. In that moment, all Alice wanted to do was get back to the camp and hide under the covers of her bed. The young girl shook her head, knowing that she couldn't be a coward, she needed to sort this out and not run away from it, so the pirate's daughter cleared her throat.
-"Robyn" Alice called her, but Robin kept ignoring her, pretending to be focused only on the target. But Alice didn't give up. "I just want to talk, please" The tone in Alice's voice made Robin stopped, she didn't turn around, but she stopped shooting, letting the other girl know that she was listening, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled at you, I just don't want you to think that I'm some helpless girl who always needs help, I can fight my own battles" Alice explained softly. Robin sighed as she took a step closer to the blonde girl.
"I know that you're not helpeless, I know you can fight, it's just" Robin looked down at her feet, "I couldn't bare the thought of something happening to you, I can't help but worry" The archer confessed, and Alice knew she really couldn't be mad at her, knowing she also worried about the other girl.
"Love" Alice took a step forward and grabbed Robin's chin, forcing the archer to look at her, "I worry about you too, but you know what, I know it's going to be alright because we have our friends and our families, but most importantly, we have each other, and that's what matters the most" Alice said and Robin closed the gap between them, pulling Alice in for a kiss.
"I love you" Robin said while she leaned her forehead against Alice's.
"I love you too" Alice smiled while the young couple enjoyed the moment, knowing they would have to head back to camp soon before the others started to worry. Both knew they would be alright as long as they were together.
