When I wake up, Robin is gone. Maybe just downstairs, I thought. I put on my robe and felt something rustle in my bra.
"What the-" a note from Robin
"With the merry men and Roland. See you tomorrow.
-Robin"
I smiled. It was so unbelievable to have him back. I couldn't put it into words. At least now I can thank Hook. I look down at my watch, 8:42, he should be at Granny's.

I pull Hook away from Emma.
"Why'd you do it?"
He looked up at me, "Pardon me, love?"
"You saved Robin. Why?"
"Well Regina," he said with a smirk
"It was uh... Beneficial for everyone."
"But still... Me? You've never liked me."
"I love Emma... I can't tell her yet it's too soon..."
"Well yeah, that's obvious."
"I'm not done, the way you look at him. That's the way I look at Emma."
"And pirate?"
"And she loves Henry, and if Robin makes you happy that makes Henry happy which makes Emma happy which makes me very happy."
"That's actually kind of nice." I paused "I just can't understand why Black Beard wants your vest."
"Me as well, love."

MEANWHILE

"Here's your vest. Now, my payment." Said a raspy voice
"Not just yet, pirate, how'd you acquire this?"
"I traded it. His ship, that vest."
"Fine, Black." Rumple said pushing coins into his hands. "Now if you'll excuse me, it's the villains turn to win."
