********************************************************
"Robin!" you looked up watching as Regina ran to him, she wrapped her arms around him as he stood there just looking at her, not returning the embrace, she pulled away and you watched as her face dropped seeing that he couldn't have cared any less.
Your stomach turned and hands shook at watching the interaction, why did she keep going for him, the constant advances that were turned down, the wishful glances returned with blank stares. For almost an entire year you had been in love with the woman and yet she wouldn't even bat an eye, you were just a friend her person, the dependable shoulder for her to cry on.
You're the one that climbed out of your totaled car after the accident, battered and ran headfirst into the fire to save Henry, her son, while Robin stood idly by after saving himself.
"Hey Y/N, David has to stay here with Emma to clean up the scene, I'll take you home." you turned met by her gentle expression and nodded."
"You're cleared, but if you're feeling intense pain I would recommend letting us take you to the hospital." the paramedic said acknowledging you and Snow as you watched Regina.
"I think I'm good," you said a light smile pulling the corner of your mouth, you got up to walk away.
"You're a hero, you know..." the young woman called after you. You turned around to slightly face her, "saving the kid, it was brave, no many people can say they have the guts to do something like that... and her I'm sure she'll see it."
"Thanks." you said looking at Regina before turning to walk away, you climbed into David's truck as snow took you home.
"You saved his life..." she said breaking the silence. You watched the trees pass by in the darkness outside the window as rain started to fall, rain drops racing down the window. A few minutes later you pulled into your driveway, hopping out and heading towards your door.
"Yea?" you turned to her.
"Just tell her." she said and you nodded as she pulled away into the night.
2 hours later you heard a soft knock on your door, you pulled yourself off of the couch with a grimace, holding your injured side you pulled the door open, revealing a disheveled Regina, dark jeans and her black long sleeve had rain spots from the storm outside.
"Regina, " you whispered in suprise at seeing the woman on your doorstep.
"Y/N, can I come in?" she asked and you stepped aside letting her come in. She looked around your keys thrown on the table next to the door with your phone. Your brown suede jacket hanging on the chair, your brown boots had mud on them placed next to the chair in the dining room, she followed you to the kitchen as you went to grab a drink.
"Want anything coffee, tea?" you asked back still turned to her as you poured coffee.
"Coffee would be nice, thanks" she said as you poured her a cup, turning to her she saw the gash on your forhead being held together with little white butterfly bandages, a black eye, and your lip sliced open drops of blood on your tank running down your shoulder.
"Y/N..." she said concern flooding her features at the condition of your face.
"I'm okay," you said pulling out a small smirk. she leaned forward to get a closer look at you, her hand ghosted over your side, the slight touch making you wince at the pain in your side.
"Y/N..." she said lifting your tank to reveal the already purpling bruises.
"Don't Regina." you said reading her face.
"Shut up and let me help you!" she scolded, her magic quickly flowing to ease the pain, repairing the injuries. a moment of silence pasing between you but a conversation happening behind your eyes
"I wanted to say thank you..." She looked up at you but you were avoiding her eyes by watching her hands, as the purple flowed between you, "For saving Henry, I know that wasn't easy and you got hurt in the process, but..."
"I can't do this," you said quickly pushing past her.
"Y/N here just let me help you, you're hurting..."
"Regina, Just stop!" you snapped.
"Y/N?" she asked treading lightly, her body language was protective as she tried to keep her defenses from going up.
"I-I just can't right now." you said and turned your back to her leaning on the island.
"nothing..." you said vaguely trying to calm yourself down.
"It's not nothing..." She rouned the island to come to your side, and looked at you softly with concern.
"Y/N I love you, I'm here..."
"Do you?" you whispered under your breath.
"Do you love me? Truly love me?" you said looking up to make eye contact with her."
"Is that even a question?"
"Obviously... Regina, is you knew what was good for you..."
"Y/N where is this coming from?... why would you even question if I love you?"
"Because, no matter how hard I try you return to him every time."
"Robin? is that what this is about, why would you say that?"
"Because I LOVE you, I love you, I'm in love with you... For awhile now, and I see how you look at him, and in return what do you get... Regina I want you and only you, everything, the good and bad, Regina and the Evil Queen, Henry, all of it." you snapped back, realization of what you said hitting you when you saw her face.
"Time after time I watch as you run back to him, he doesn't know you, he doesn't love you and yet you go back everytime... tonight I climbed out of a totaled car and into a burning one not just because I love Henry but because I know what he means ot you and I love you with everything I have, and you still ran to Robin after he did what make sure no hair was out of place. I would risk my life for you everytime cause I want nothing more than to have a life with you, to love you, and show you what true love is."
"Y/N..." she said trying to find the words.
"I'm sorry," you said hanging your head, waiting for her to reject you and scold you. But instead she stepped closer to you, she lifted your chin with her fingers and suddenly her lips were on yours.
"I never knew, I didn't think you would want me so I tried to stay away... I have a lot that comes with me and I always thought you were too good to have to be put through that." she said resting her forehead on yours.
"Regina that's the point, I would voluntarily walk through the fire with you if it meant we both made it out, I don't deal with this baggage, your scars because I have to, I do it because I want to, because I love you." you said pressing your lips to hers in the gentlest kiss you could muster.
"So what does this mean for us," she said a few tears falling.
"It means whatever you want it to, it means you have a protector, someone you can run to. You were never meant to belong somewhere that you aren't loved."
"No, I belong with you," she said looking up into your eyes, her coffee brown orbs soothing your soul, "my happy ending."
"no Y/N you are my happy ending, the arms that I find comfort in, the person that I get to come home to, you're my future."
"I want to have babies and a beautiful home, and live in love, it's never easy but it's a choice I'm willing to make everyday, something I will fight for until I draw my last breath, I will always come running back to you."
"And my arms will always be open, our home will always be our safe haven," you said pulling her in for a kiss feeling the hot tears touch your cheek as she cried in relief of the confession.
