Comment: the most momentous kiss in TV history! Here's how Barney felt about it :)

Barney Stinson can hardly believe that he's actually kissing Robin Scherbatsky. Really, truly, tongue-involved kissing the most awesome woman he's ever met.

He moans against her lips, and it's primal, raw and desperate. He's not able to think straight, but he feels a million things at once. He's done this before, but he's absolutely overwhelmed, and it's because normally, there's always something that feels off with other women, like too much lip-gloss or not enough friction, but Robin's absolutely perfect, and he moans and lifts her up onto his lap and pulls her close, like a lifeline he didn't know he needs.
