what's next? | m.a.

what's next?

This takes place just after they've defeated wish rumple during 7x22

"Robin!" A smile lit up the archer's face as soon as she heard her favourite voice pronounce her name.

"Tower girl!"

Alice came closer to her girlfriend and hugged her as she sat on the couch.

"How are you?"

"I'm... i'm okay..."

"No, Alice, tell me what's wrong."

"It's... it's just that Rumple has done so much for me. He's the reason we're together. Now, he's the reason i'm back with my papa. He has done so much for me and I just... I just wish I could've found a way to help him."

"He's in a better place right now. All he wanted was to get rid of his immortality and go back to Belle. He knows you cared for him as he cared for you."

"Thanks Robin. I... I love you so much, you know that, right? Even if, recently, I've been on so many adventures and I've travelled to a lot of different places, the only thing I want right now is to be with you. You're my home and you always know how to make me feel better. And if I... if I lost you..."

"You won't lose me. I'm not going anywhere. Regina's planning on bringing all the realms to Storybrook. So nothing, i mean nothing, will tear us apart."

"Robin, you know I want to spend the rest of my life with you, you're my everything. And I'm so lucky to have met you."

"I love you too, tower girl."

They looked at each other, blinded with love, a foolish smile on their face. Alice put her arms around her girlfriend's neck and felt happier than ever.

"Can I ask you something?" Robin quickly said.

"Yes, of course."

The archer hesitated and suddenly shifted her gaze to her jacket's right sleeve and stared at it with a particular interest.

"Oh, forget it, it's stupid."

"You can tell me anything, you know that, right?"

"Oh, I know. I just want to enjoy the moment. It doesn't happen often that we're alone with nothing to do."

Alice chuckled which made Robin smile even more.

"I love it when you laugh, you look so cute."

Robin turned around and sat on Alice, putting her legs around her body. She started kissing her more passionately than she had ever before. She looked into her girlfriend's eyes. She could do this for days, her eyes were a deep blue and sparkled like a shining star. Robin took the bottom of Alice's shirt in her hands and started lifting it up.

"Alice, are you he..."

Hook stopped abruptly when he set his eyes on the two girls kissing on the couch.

"Papa, what... What are you doing here?" Alice got up and rearranged her clothes while blushing shyly. Robin looked away, half embarrassed, half amused.

"Don't worry about it, I'll... I'll just go." He shook his hook to indicate he was going to leave.

When he stepped out of the room, Alice turned around to face her girlfriend and bursted out laughing.

"Come here, you!" Robin patted the couch at her side, smiling lightly.

Alice returned at the archer's side and took her girlfriend's hands, squeezing them.

"You want to see some magic? I've been getting better!"

The archer nodded her head in response, loving the way Alice's accent changed the sound of the words she pronounced.

Alice did a turn with her left hand and closed her eyes before reopening them with a smile.

"Look up", she said.

Robin moved her head slowly towards the ceiling of the room. Bright white snow was whirling and falling lightly on their shoulders.

Alice leaned her pale face closer to her girlfriend's to appreciate how beautiful she was, but Robin quickly eliminated the space between their lips, kissing her like she had never before.
