Comment: Have a nice weekend! :) A bit more insight into Barney and Robin's secret summer. Enjoy! :') Oh, and yes. The title's from "Summer Nights." What can I say, I love Grease x)
Summer days driftin' away, to uh-oh those summer nights
The apartment's quiet when they emerge from Robin's bedroom, but not for long. They're all hushed giggles and muffled laughter, because when you're not allowed to make noise, everything seems to be twice as loud.
"Don't wake up Ted," Robin murmurs as she leads him to the door.
She can practically see Barney's grin through the darkness. "Please, if he didn't hear us before… he's not going to now." She knows he's waggling his eyebrows.
"Yeah, yeah," she unceremoniously reaches for the door. "G'night."
He pulls her closer, then, to press her against it. She can feel his hands gently roaming over her body, teasing her in all the good places. She bites back laughter. "Barney… Shhh!"
He rests his forehead against hers, their noses touching lovingly. Suddenly, it is quiet in the apartment. Their lips brush ever so lightly.
"Wish you could stay," she says very lowly.
"Hmm, me too." He laces their fingers together, breathing her in. But they know it's no use – Ted would find out before they even left the bedroom.
"See you tomorrow? My place?" His voice is full of promises.
"Yes." And he kisses her some more before heading out into the summer night.
