It was a short walk to the park from Patrick's building. They walked so Robin could see the world. They reached the park and Robin ran through the grass bare foot. Patrick sat on the bench watching as Robin ran through the grass. "Patrick you should join me." Robin said. "No, I know what the grass feels like." "When was the last time you were carefree and ran through the grass. A simple thing like this means the world to me"
"Ok, ok I will join you." Patrick said taking off his shoes. He walked into the grass and she took his hand and made him run with her. They were laughing and giggling as people watched them run. Exhausted and wanting to eat now they put there shoes on and headed to Kelly's. "Isn't this where we are meeting my Uncle Mac, Aunt Felicia and my parents?" "Yep, I thought we would have dinner here so you know could get a feel for the place and maybe it might help to know the exits so if you need some air." "Thank you." "Ok, come on let's sit and here's a menu." They sat and looked over the menus. "Patrick." A man said coming up. "Oh, hi Mike. Mike this is Robin Scorpio, Robin this is Mike Corbin he runs Kelly's." "Hi." Robin said shaking his hand. "Nice to meet you. So what can I get for you"
"I'll have a cheeseburger platter and a strawberry milk shake." Patrick said. "I will have the same but with a chocolate milk shake." Robin said. "Ok,." Mike said. "It will be about twenty minutes, but I will bring your milk shakes right over." "Thanks." Robin and Patrick said and Mike left. "So are you excited to meet your parents?" "I am more nervous. What are they going to think of me"
"They are going to be so happy to have you back in their arms that their going to think you are the best women in the world"
"But what about after they learn about Alex." "Robin, your parents are going to learn that and stand behind you and they will be proud of you for standing up and fighting"
"Really?" "Yes." Patrick said. Mike came back over with their milk shakes.
"So what next on your list of things to do?" Patrick asked. "I have no clue. I think I just need to meet my family and then take it from there." "Sounds good." Patrick said. "Maybe you will go back into medicine." "I would love to. I love it." "Well I could talk with Alan Quartermaine and see about you volunteering at GH and we can figure out what it is going to take to get you back to being a doctor." "Ok." Robin said. "That sounds great." Mike brought there food over and they sat eating and talking. Soon all the food was gone and they decided to head home. "I am so tired." Robin said. "Well why don't you go up to bed." "I am not ready for bed." Robin said walking over to the window. She sat down and looked out. "You know being out there was so amazing. I got to do things I haven't done since I was a little girl." Patrick moved over and sat across from her. "Did you have fun?" Patrick asked.
"Yes." Robin said turning her head to face him. "Well then that is what matters. You are taking your life back." "I owe that to you. You gave me the chance to have my life." Robin reached out and took his hand. "Because of you I am finding my life." "Well, I am happy to help." Patrick said smiling. "I don't know how I will ever thank you for all you are doing for me. I never had someone believe in me or fight for me, but you are doing that." "Thanking me is easy. Claim your life and never let anyone ever put you down." "I wont." Robin said. "Never again." Patrick leaned in and kissed her. "I am sorry," Patrick said. "No, it's fine." Robin said. "No one has ever kissed me like that." Robin leaned in and kissed him.
