As Marshall and Ted went on talking about how their lives were going to be in 2012 Barney drifted off.
"Where do I really want my life to be?" he thought. He instantly imagined Robin laughing at one of his disgusting jokes. Robin fast asleep, lying beside him in his bed. Of course these were familiar images, but then a completely new one formed in his mind.
Robin walking down the aisle, looking stunning in a white dress, walking towards him with a nervous grin on her face. Lily in a pretty dress holding the dress's train, but over shone by the bride's beauty. Robin walked closer to him and he could almost feel the butterflies.
"No, I can't want that" he lied to himself, "I won't. I'll just get hurt again." he decided.
He instantly changed the image to him chatting up some blonde bimbo,.
For now he could pretend like he hadn't changed. But he knew he would have to stop being stubborn sometime. He would have to admit to himself and to others that he loved Robin Scherbatzsky. But for now he would hide. After all, it couldn't hurt. Could it?
A miniscule drabble which just came into my head randomly and I just had to type it up. Could probably have been done better, but this is all I've got for now. Reviews keep me sane (well as sane as I can be)! Thanks for reading!
