Hey guys! I´m so, so sorry for the very long wait, but due to little time and little motivation I didn´t write a lot. I hope you like it. Nothing much is happening, I hope I can write a better chapter and post it soon.

Plus: I wanted to ask you guys, if you want me to continue writing this. It´s been a year since homy ended and there are less and less readers and reviews :(. Don´t get me wrong, even if there is only one person out there who wants to continue reading my fix, it will be an honor for me to continue writing this story. So let me know, if there is/are still some people out there who want to read more of my stories.

Guest: Thank you for your review! I´m so glad you like it! Oh, thank you! I know the difference between ´though´and ´tough´, but sometimes I mix it up when typing. Sometimes my laptop changes it too - same thing with ´know´and ´now´. Thanks for telling me, I hope I don´t make this mistake too often. I never proof-read my chapters because when I do it, I´d change every single line and then I´d have to read it again, then I´d change it again etc. - It´s a vicious circle. And: oh wow, thank you. It means a lot - to be honest, I was kind of bad in English back in school and I always fear that my language isn´t good enough or that my readers may hate how I write. Thank you so much! And oh my god, i´m sure you´re pretty good in languages and many other areas! I´m pretty untalented in most areas and average in the rest of the areas XD.

When she enters McLarens the gang already sits at the same table they were sitting at the last time. Barney is the first to see her, smiles and rises his eyebrows at her. Lily realizes this and follows Barney´s look.

„Oh, hey Robin. Here we are!", Lily screams.

„Hey, guys! I´ve already seen you. How are you?", she asks them. She sits down on the chair as one booth is occupied by Ted and Barney, while Lily and Marshall are squeezed together on the other booth. Barney and Lily happen to sit right next to her.

„We are fine. We were already waiting for you.", Lily answers.

„Oh, I´m sorry. I didn´t want to let you wait."

„No problem. Were happy you´re here at all!"

„How was your weekend?", Ted chimes in, „I´m so sorry, I couldn´t show you the city."

„It was good. And it´s okay. I will get to know the city soon enough."

„Wow, you must love your job. To work at a weekend and not even complaining about it..."

„Yes, it´s a great job. The weekend was exhausting too, but most of all it was great.", Robin smiles.

„Oh, I´m sure of it.", Barney smiles innocently, „I hope the effort paid off."
„It absolutely did. Though sometimes my colleagues are annoying. They think they are the best though I´m clearly better.", Robin starts to tease Barney.

„Really? Maybe you just don´t get them. Maybe they are the best and you just refuse to realize it."

„Mhmmm, I don´t think so. They are indeed great. Better than any other colleagues I can wish for, but still... without me, they couldn´t get done a thing."

„Yeah, I agree you´re irreplaceable", Barney grins.

„How do you want to know? You have never seen her being at work, let alone know her in private.", Marshall interrupts them. He and also Ted and Lily are confused by Robin´s and Barney´s interaction. That´s the problem with those two. When they are together, they sometimes forget, they are not alone – especially when they start teasing each other.

Barney tries to safe the situation, „I meant I THINK that she´s irreplaceable. Of course, I don´t know that for sure, but she seems like a strong, independent woman who knows how to rock her job."

Marshall, Lily and Ted are still confused, but they let it go and talk about other things.

It´s already 1am when Robin calls it a night, „I had a lot of fun with you guys, but I have to head home. I have to work tomorrow and I should at least sleep for some hours."

„I guess we should go too. We have to work as well, I didn´t realized it´s already that late", Marshall says.

„Yes, right", Lily agrees, „But listen, about the tour you want to make with Ted. What about all of us going to show you the city. It will be a lot of fun."

„That´s a great idea!", Robin shouts out, relieved she doesn´t have to go alone with Ted. A little too relieved for Ted´s taste.

„But...But I wanted to show you all the important sights and tell you something about their history. The three of them will only distract you."

„Oh come on, Ted. I swear, I will listen to you. You can show me all the sights, Lily can show me some great shopping opportunities, Marshall some great burger-restaurants or sports things and Barney could show me the cigar-bar or a place with some fine scotch. It will be great and I will be informed about all the most important places." , Robin tries to convince Ted.

Everybody notices Ted isn´t too excited about it, but he finally agrees. All of them head home and go straight to bed – everybody thinking about something else.

Robin thinks about the fun she will have when she makes the tour through the city with the gang instead of looking at sights with Ted alone.

Barney thinks about how happy he feels that Robin won´t be alone with Ted.

Ted thinks about the sights he want to show Robin.

Marshall thinks about the great burgers they will eat.

And Lily... Lily thinks about why the hell Robin knows that Barney smokes cigars.
