Yay actually updated this and it hasn't been two months (Self-five)
Barney
"Are you ready to go home?"
"No. Can't we just live here?" She says as she packs up her stuff.
"Well if you really want to." I surprise her from behind and spin her around so she faces me. "We can just hide out here forever." I say kissing her lips.
"No. We probably should get back. Plus I really want to see Lily's face when I tell her about this." She holds up her hand, displaying her brand new engagement ring huge smile on her face.
Robin
Plane
"Hey Barney." I say, kind of waking him up from his nap.
"Yeah." He says groggily.
"Sorry I woke you up. But I was just thinking, is it okay if I tell Ted first, before we tell Lily and Marshall?"
"Why?"
"I just think it would be best if I told him first. I don't want him to be surprised or anything like that. You know?"
"Yeah sure of course."
"Okay awesome."
As soon as our plane landed I sent a text to Ted asking if it was okay if I came over.
Ted's house
"Hey, where's Barney?" Ted said, as I walked into his apartment alone.
"Oh he's over at Lily and Marshall's." I made him promise not to tell them anything until I got there, because I would kill him if I didn't get to see Lily's reaction. "I kind of wanted to talk to you alone."
"Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, actually everything is more than okay." We had moved over to the seating area and I wanted to make sure Ted was sitting down before I told him the news. "Barney and I are engaged."
"Robin, thats amazing!" He says, getting up from the couch and giving me a big hug.
"You aren't mad." I say as we pull apart.
"Why would I be mad?"
"I don't know. I just thought that maybe..."
"Robin I love you."
My heart skips a beat for a second. "Ted I.."
"And I love Barney. You guys are so happy together, I'm so happy for you. Honestly though you are soul mates. You are meant to be together, the universe has deemed it so. I didn't think I would ever see Barney settling down in a million years, but you changed that. Actually, I never thought you would get married either. But it takes the right person to make you change. I couldn't be happier." And finally it was all okay. I could tell that he was really happy for me and didn't have any regrets at all. Ted had moved on.
"You stole the blue french horn for me." I always thought this was a pretty good ending to our romantic relationship. Its a reminder of the time we spent together, and i'm honestly grateful for it all. If Ted did not want to go out with me so badly I wouldn't be here right now.
"I would have stolen you an entire orchestra. Come on lets go tell Lily and Marshall."
Barney
Later at the bar
Being the generous person she was Robin let me tell Marshall about our engagement. So I sent Ted to get drinks and we were alone in the booth.
"So you were right. Girls do like romantic trips."
"Told you, and didn't you basically just bang all day. Its like being married though, Lily and I basically bang when ever we want to. Its like being on a vacation all the time minus the vacation"
"Yeah it was legend wait-for-it actually I don't have to wait anymore because we are engaged." I hit the table for emphazie.
"Seriously? Barney this is awesome." He puts his hand up for a high five, which I of course except.
"Dary! Yeah it is."
"So how did you ask her?"
"Well first I..."
Robin
A tiny bit earlier
Since I already had told Ted and I absolutely had to tell Lily I figured I would let Barney tell Marshall. After informing Ted on this plan we arrived at Marshall and Lily's apartment and the guys went down to the bar.
"Damn you are so tan, i'm so jealous!" Lily tells me after we are finally alone.
"Oh thanks."
"How awesome was it."
"It was amazing, the hotel was honestly the prettiest place in the world and I can't believe Barney spoiled me like that."
"Come on. He loves you, he would do anything for you."
"Yeah. I know." Okay perfect timing. "Cuz guess what."
"What?"
"Well he umm. Kind of.. Proposed."
"Oh my god. OH MY GOD."
"Yeah!" I hold my my left hand.
"HOLY CRAP OH MY GOD. ROBIN. OH MY GOD. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. YOU BITCH YOU DIDN'T CALL ME RIGHT AWAY. OH MY GOD NO YOU AREN'T A BITCH I JUST OH MY GOD." She gave me like thirty hugs and was jumping on the sofa.
"Calm down Lily, you are more excited then I was and I'm the one getting married."
"Sorry. It's just I TOLD YOU SO. OH MY GOD, I KNEW IT I KNEW YOU GUYS WERE GOING TO END UP TOGETHER. OH MY GOD MARSHALL OWES ME."
"Yeah you were right!" I say giving her another hug.
"WE HAVE TO START PLANNING THIS WEDDING. THIS IS GOING TO BE AMAZING!"
So I hope you like this chapter. I felt like the Ted and Robin thing was necessary. I don't know about you.
