Summary: What if Robin had turned out to be pregnant in Symphony of Illumination? What would it mean for our favourite couple?
RPOV
"No this cant be real" I muttered into my hands as I sat in the chair with Barney stood in shock next to me. I couldn't be pregnant, this couldn't be happening. What could I tell Kevin? That I had cheated on him with the real love of my life and now I was carrying his baby? He was going to dump me for sure. But what about Barney? I wasn't even sure he wanted kids let alone with me, I know I badly hurt him that night by choosing Kevin over him. Would he be able to forgive me? For the baby's sake. God I was a mess.
"I will give you two a minute" the nurse said when she sensed the tension in the room,
"Thanks" Barney managed to stammer, I still couldn't lift my head from my hands."Robin" said Barney, when I didn't respond he repeated himself, this went to for a while till he decided to change tactics,"Robin please look at me" when I still didn't respond he continued talking, "Look Robin I am not angry at you for anything you did nothing wrong, none of this is your fault, please just tell me what your thinking and give me a chance to help you"
"It is my fault" I finally managed to stammer,
"Robin, it's not" he tried to speak but I stopped him in his tracks.
"Yes Barney it is, it's my fault that I chose Kevin over you, it's my fault we aren't back together and it's my fault that now Kevin is going to hate me and this baby is going to grow up without a dad as I can't expect you to help me raise this kid Barney, I can't take your carefree single life away from you" When I finished my speech I looked into Barney's blue eyes as he crouched in front of me so we were at eye level.
"Robin I forgive you for what happened with Kevin and I don't blame you at all, it's defiantly not your fault we aren't back together, it's the universe's. As for the kid thing, I would never leave you to raise our kid by yourself, no matter how awesome my current life is I would far rather be with you, I love you Scherbatsky and nothing will ever change that" as he spoke those last few words it hit me how selfish I was, I had hurt this amazing man and he was still willing to be with me, and what was I doing in return? I was taking away any possible future he could have with a woman who deserved him.
Despite my best efforts tears began to fall down my face, but when I tried to stop them the just fell faster. Barney gratefully closed the gap between us as he wrapped his arms around me holding me against his chest as my tears stained his shirt with salt water. I didn't say anything he just held me there while I cried my eyes out. When my tears had eventually dried I finally managed to speak,
"Barney please know that I am truly sorry for the Kevin business and while technically I am still with him we are over. I love you Barney" Just as I had finished speaking I felt as pair of lips press against mine as he pulled me back into him. I quickly kissed him back, as I wrapped my arms around his neck my fingers tangling in his hair, I felt his hand cradling my face while his other hand pressed against the small of my back holding me close to him.
After what seemed like forever he pulled away, "Come on Robin lets go home" he said as he guided me out of the hospital.
As we left I realised that what ever the universe threw at me I could take it, as long as I had Barney by my side.
