Author's Note: Hey everyone, here is the second chapter of Back to where it all started. I hope everyone doesn't mind the way that Robin treats Patrick. Hah. Below is a little bit about Jason & Robin, as well as Jason and Brenda. I really hope everyone likes this chapter. There will be a few background stories through the story so everyone will understand what is going on with the characters and how they met and whatnot. I did give Patrick and Robin a little scene together. I hope it was worth it. Also, I got a second interview with Wegman's, so maybe I got the job. Enjoy and relish in chapter two.
Jason, Brenda, & Robin: Jason and Brenda dated just like Jason and Robin dated. Robin did leave Port Charles after they broke up since Jason wanted nothing to do with her. Right before Jason and Robin got together, Brenda and Jason dated for a few months, but it wasn't anything too serious. Robin's avoiding Jason because he had really hurt her and she's not sure if she could forgive him. Also, Robin did something else as well, as she hadn't told anyone. Then again, it's been over ten years, and she wants to get on with her life. The whole Jason and Brenda scenario is that the two are very attracted but are too stubborn to do anything about it.
Maxie & Drew: Maxie is a nurse at General Hospital and is working on becoming a doctor just like her 'big brother', Patrick, as she looks up to him. She met drew at PCU when she was rushing off to class. The two have been together for nine months and it'' becoming a bit serious now.
Georgie & Diego: Georgie and Diego got together after Diego got out of jail, as she had been the only one to see past all the toughness where there was a heart and soul. Georgie's also the only one that knows that Diego is nothing like his father. The two haven't been together that long. They became friends before they started dating. Georgie is a nurse where Diego works at the Metro Court as a security guard.

Robin swiped her tongue across the chocolate mocha in her hand and she moaned to the delicious taste. As she felt eyes on her, she glared at both Georgie and Patrick, who had done nothing but tease her of how short she was.
"I'm really not that short," Robin argued, as she sat down at the table in front of the ice cream shop, and she then looked at Georgie. "You're short too."
"Robin, we're just kidding," Georgie said with a bright smile, as she looked at her watch, and then took a lick of her ice cream.
Robin saw her look at her watch and she raised an eyebrow. "Georgie, are you waiting for something?"
"I'm sorry. I'm just wondering where Diego's at. He should be here any minute."
"I still cannot believe you are even with him," Patrick groaned, as he shook his head. "I mean, he's an Alcazar for Christ sake. It makes me wonder if you are into bad boys."
"He's cute and he's nothing like his father," Georgie argued, as she shook her head. "At least I am not the one that cannot look past a woman's chest size or ass."
"Hey, that was one time!" Patrick said with a shake of his head, looking at Georgie, as he licked his mint chocolate chip ice cream. "Besides, she was flirting with me."
"No, she wasn't. You only wished that she was," Georgie laughed, as she looked at Patrick. "You only let your mind think what you want to think. She was just staring at the guy behind you."
"Are you two always like this?" Diego asked, as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"Diego!" Georgie exclaimed, as she jumped out of her seat, and she kissed him softly.
"Not now," Patrick groaned, as he shook his head. "Can't you see that I am trying to eat my ice cream without trying to get sick?"
Robin laughed, as she shook her head, and she watched Diego and Georgie sit down.
"Are you sure you're in your thirties?" Robin questioned, as she looked at Patrick with a raised eyebrow.
"I definitely am."
"Whatever you say," Robin laughed, as she heard Patrick's beeper go off.
"Excuse me for a moment," Patrick said, as he stepped to the side to take the phone call from the hospital.
"Georgie, how long have you known him?" Robin asked, as she finished her ice cream, and she cleaned her fingers with the napkin she picked from the pile on the table.
"I don't think your cousin trusts Patrick, babe," Diego said, as he looked at Robin, and he laughed. "Just out of curiosity but how long will you be here?"
"I am hoping to stay here for a long time," Robin said, as she looked at him, and watched Patrick come back to the table. "So, are you leaving now?"
"You wish," Patrick laughed, as he crossed his arms over his chest. "But yes… I do have to get going to the hospital, Dr. Scorpio. How about it? Do you want to come with me? I can show you around the hospital once I see this patient."
"Um, I---"
"She would love to go and we'll go to," Georgie interrupted, as she looked at her. "Besides, I need to see Maxie for a minute."
"What are you… my mother?" Robin scoffed, as she stood up to her feet. "I guess I should get going. I need to see Alan, so I can go ahead and fill out my paperwork."
"No Robin, I just want you to have a little excitement in your life."
"Oh yeah… and going to the hospital is a whole lot of fun. You're insane, Georgie."
"Yeah, yeah, but you still love me," Georgie said with a grin on her face, as the four of them headed towards General Hospital.

Kelly groaned, as she plopped down beside Maxie and Andrew, as Brenda took a next to her best friend with a giggle leaving her lips softly. She was mortified to what she had said, well, hadn't said to Lucky Spencer. She had only said one thing to him and it wasn't even interesting. She could definitely tell he wasn't interested in someone such as herself.
"Kel, what's the matter?" Maxie asked, as she noticed the disturbed look on Kelly's face. "You look like you are about to die at any second."
Brenda giggled. "She just made a fool out of herself in front of Lucky Spencer and now she's being so stubborn right now. Don't mind her. Eventually, she will come around."
"Oh Kelly, it can't be that bad," Maxie said with a genuine smile on her face and then turned to look at Brenda with a raised eyebrow. "Or was it?"
"I asked him if I still made him nervous!" Kelly cried out, as she crossed her arms over her chest. "I mean, seriously… who says shit like that?"
"I guess you do," Robin said, approaching them where Georgie and Diego were standing behind her.
"Robin," Kelly said with a sigh. "Do you have to be so mean?"
"No… but I enjoy making your life hell," Robin giggled, as she sat down beside Kelly. "I'm sorry that things went so bad. Do you want me to take you out for some ice cream?"
"Robin, you just had some!" Georgie laughed, as she looked at her.
"And? What's the problem in that?" Robin asked, as she placed her hands in her lap, and she looked at her younger cousin. "I haven't had some chocolate mocha in forever. Sue me if you want."
"And here I thought that you cared about me," Kelly said with a frown on her face.
"I do, honey, and---"
"Robin?"
Robin cringed at the deep man's voice and she took a silent, deep breath, as she shook her head. She just wasn't ready to face him. She lifted her head and she was met with a pair of bright blue eyes.
"Jason."
"I surely didn't believe that you were back until my father told me," Jason said, as he didn't care who was staring. "Do you think we could talk?"
"I don't think that's such a good idea---"
"Robin, we need to talk about what happened."
"Jason, what I mean is we can't talk here," Robin explained, as she looked away, hating herself even more by each passing second. "What time do you get off?"
Jason looked at his watch and sighed. "I get off in about two hours. We can meet at Kelly's for something to eat if you want."
"I guess so."
Seeing the discomfort in her face, Jason nodded to everyone, and then walked away.
"Robin, why are you going out with him? What exactly happened?" Brenda asked, as she looked at her best friend. "You know how much I like Jason."
"I know that, and trust me… I don't plan or intend on getting back with Jason. He's in my past."
"Besides, she's already fallen for Patrick," Georgie said with a grin leaving her lips, getting a glare from Robin. "What? You were attacking everything he said on the walk to the ice cream shop. There is no need to give me cold stares. I was just saying."
"Whatever. I don't like that arrogant and annoying Patrick Drake."
"Why not? What did I ever do to you?" Patrick asked, as he approached everyone in a pair of scrubs. "Do you really hate that Georgie and Maxie look up to me as well as you? Are you really that competitive?"
Andrew looked at Maxie in shock, pulling her close, as he had never heard this side of his friend before.
"Uh, you guys," Andrew began, as he shook his head. "I don't think that this is the time or the place."
"And who are you to tell me what to do?" Robin snapped, as she sighed. "Look, I'm sorry. I just don't like being told what to do. Sorry… um, what's your name?"
"Andrew Taylor. I'm Maxie's boyfriend," Andrew said, as he looked at Robin. "But a lot of people call me Drew instead of Andrew."
"He's cute, Maxie," Kelly said with a grin, as she got a glare from her. "What? He looks too young, so don't worry… I won't try to steal him."
"Kel!"
"What Brenda? I was just playing around. Geez."
Diego chuckled, as he looked at Georgie.
"Are you happy that your cousin is back home?" Diego whispered into her ear, wrapping his arms around her waist, as he held her close to his body.
Georgie laid her head against his chest. "Yes, it's good to have Robin, Brenda, and Kelly home. I have missed them all very much."
Patrick stepped forward, as he looked at Robin. He watched Kelly give Robin the file with her paperwork that she had to fill out. "So, how about it? Are you still interested in me giving you a tour of the hospital?"
Robin rolled her eyes, as she stood up to her feet, and she walked away from him, giving him the signal to show her around.
"Yes, this is going to be fun," Patrick grinned, as he met up with Robin.
"I am kind of afraid what's going to go on in their conversation," Brenda said with a shake of her head.
"Who knows… this is Robin and Patrick we're talking about," Maxie said, as she stood up to her feet. "Come on, babe. Let's get some lunch in the cafeteria before we have to go back to work, babe."
Andrew nodded, as they left to the cafeteria.
"Are they really going to the cafeteria?" Kelly asked, as she looked over at Georgie and Diego.
"Probably not," Diego said with a shake of his head, as he held Georgie close to him. "So, babe, what time do you get off of work?"

Secretly looking at Robin Scorpio, as he showed her around the halls, Patrick felt his heart throbbing. He hadn't ever felt this way towards a woman where he felt lightheaded or where he felt butterflies in the pit of his stomach. Then again, no woman had excited him the way that Robin did. She was definitely a very exhilarating, yet beautiful woman.
"There's the supply closet," Patrick pointed out, as he licked across his bottom lip. "And that's the locker room, along with the staff lounge."
"Uh huh," Robin said, as she looked at the places he was showing her. "So, if you don't mind me asking, how long have you worked at this hospital?"
Robin wasn't sure what it was about Patrick Drake but he made her so nervous and she wasn't exactly sure if she was enjoying this feeling. She placed her hands into her pockets and turned her head to look over at the handsome neurosurgeon.
"I've worked at General Hospital for three years," Patrick replied with a bright smile on his face. "I enjoy working here, especially with my best friend working here with me."
"And who would your best friend be?"
Patrick chuckled. "Nosy much, aren't you? But if you must know, my best friend is Jason Quartermaine."
