Comment: Guys, I'm terribly sorry that I haven't updated in such a long time! I'll definitely try to post more often again now that I've returned from England. Thanks to everyone who's commented, favourited and followed this story. You rock! xx

Marshall's grin is ridiculously big as he loosens his ducky tie.

"I saw your wife's cans," Barney says like a grumpy child. "So basically, I win."

"Whatever you say, bro," he smiles, waving the tie into his face.

Before Barney can try to wrestle him to the floor (at least that's what the look on his face suggests), Robin takes the hideous thing from Marshall's hand. "Come here." She takes off his classic black tie, smirking at him. "Don't worry; I'll go easy on you."

"You're enjoying this, aren't you?"

She slings it around his neck.

"Just a little bit."
