thiefwithhonorThe library was a place he'd come to enjoy taking Roland to. The boy had taken to books a great deal, and it was rare they didn't leave the place without at least a handful for him to go through with Robin. It was a particularly cool day that day, and Robin decided it would be a good place to go, if only so they weren't cooped up inside. They were done with the last books they took out, anyway, so returning them seemed the best thing to do.
He never would have expected something...strange to happen.
He was perusing the child's section of books himself - Roland was looking at a stack of books nearby - when he noticed a book that appeared to have a sheet of something sticking out of it. He pulled the book out and opened it to take a look at what it was, assuming some child had accidentally left something when they brought it back.
What he found instead was a...picture of some sort. Or perhaps more to the point, a page with a picture on it, of Regina and he kissing. Except it was certainly no moment he remembered, and it was clear from what they were wearing that this was not when they were in Storybrooke. While it was numbered on the bottom - clearly the page was from some book - it became obvious very quickly the book it was stuck in was not the book it was from when he looked at the rest of it.
And yet here it was, and he wasn't sure what to think about it.
Roland broke him from his thoughts to tell him he had found some books, so he put the page out of his mind for the moment, carefully folding it and placing it in his pocket to talk about with Regina later. They returned to the apartment a few hours later, and he gave the books to Roland and nudged him off to play in his room. He certainly had no qualms with that.
Pulling the still-folded page out of his pocket once his boy had left with his books in tow, he called out, "Regina, are you here?"
He knew she had mentioned having a few things to do that day, but he wasn't sure if she'd returned yet.
