Well what can I say. Emma won't let me give up :L:L. This is for her seeing as she has a rather nasty and boring essay to write. ;)
'All right Rob?' Will asked as his friend entered the staff quarters.
'Not bad.' Robin sighed. 'Yourself?' He asked sitting down on the chair backwards.
'Good.' Will smiled as he thought of Djaq.
Robin knew that look all to well, after all he had the same one.
'You two love birds done day dreaming?' Allan smirked as he walked in and sat down.
'Your just jealous because that Penny girl rejected you.' Much smiled happily at the memory.
'What are you and Djaq going to do at the end of the term?' Robin asked Will hoping her had an answer.
'We talked about it, but we never came to an agreement. You?'
'Don't have a clue.' Robin sighed putting a hand through his messy but sexy hair.
'Locksley...A word.' Vaisey bellowed from the door indicating for Robin to follow with his finger.
Robin sighed and raised himself from the chair sending Will a look of "here we go again" and making his way over to Vaisey.
'We have had a theft report.' Vasiey ecplained.
'Yeah so?' Robin said folding his arms without a care in the world.
'Where were you last night?'
Robin froze. They thought that he had stolen something. But he couldn't tell them where he was last night. Marian's father would kill him, never mind her. Ideas ran through his head, but nothing that would be believeable.
'I was reading.' Robin answered as he saw Guy scoff behind Vaisey.
'You...reading?' Guy asked.
'Yeah.' Robin stated glaring at him.
'And what were you reading?' Guy questioned.
'Nuts, Zoo you know maybe you should borrow them and then you'll be able to tell the difference between a man and a woman.' Robin mocked.
'No cockyness from you Locksley. You had better be on your best behaviour.' Vaisey sneered before walking away.
'Best behaviour Locksley.' Guy smirked before going in the direction Vaisey had gone.
'There you go again Guy. Following the men.' Robinsmirked as Guy glared and disappeared from sight.
RHRHRHRHRHRH
Marina was once again sitting at breakfast, but the food was the last thing she was concentraiting on. Had kept thinking back to what she had said to Robin. What would happen once she was gone? How could she just leave behind her feelings? Was she to pack them in a suitcase like her clothes. Was it that simple? She loved his touch. How he danced his fingers along her back after they had made love. She loved the way he smiled at her. The way his eyes shone when he looked at her. Vaisey and Guy had joined them for breakfast which only made the meal more boring. She thought to Djaq. She had not seen her much the past few days. She herself had found love in the repairman of the resort. Will. She had told her about how he carves things from wood in his spare time and how happy he made her feel. She was another one that would have to leave her heart behind.
'You know how you feel when you see a patient and you think he's alright, but then you look at the results and its nothing like you thought?' Vasiey asked Marian's father.
'Well thats exactly what it feels like when you find out one of your staff's a thief.' Vasiey sighed over dramatically.
Marian looked up quickly her ears picking up on the conversation.
'Moe Pressman's wallet was stolen. He last had it when he was playing poker. He said he had it in his jacket which was on the back of his chair, but when he went to get more money from it at quarter to four... it was gone.' Guy jumped in explaining as if the FBI were going to come and check.
'Vivian his wife thinks she saw this dance kid we have Robin, walking past.' Vaisey explained.
Now Marian really was listening. Were they trying to accuse Robin of stealing? She sat up as she took more interest in the conversation.
'So we asked him what he was doing during the night.' Vaisey continued. 'But he said that he was in his room all night. Reading.' He smiled.
Guy laughed. 'There are no books in Robin's room. If he had said listening to music that would have been more believeable.' He smirked.
'There's been a mistake. I know Robin didn't do it.' Marian said as she placed a hand on Guy arms rather regretfuly.
'There have been similar thefts at the Sheldrake. It's happened here before.' Guy explained to Marian. 'Three other wallets.'
'But I know he didn't do.' Marian was not going to give up so easily.
'Stay out of it Marian.' Guy warned.
'Ahh what are those idiots doing.' Vaisey moaned getting up from his seat and walking over to some waiters.
'Dad I know he didn't do it.' Marian said again turning to her father for support.
'How do you know this Marian?' Edward asked.
'I can't tell you...' Marian said sadly. 'But please daddy just trust me.' Marian asked pleading with her father.
Edward sighed as he looked down to his plate. He had trusted her once before. And she had let him down, he was not willing to give her that trust again anytime soon. 'I'm sorry Marian. But I can't do that.' Edward said sadly. It hurt him to know that he could not trust his own daughter.
Vaisey walked back over to the table muttering to himself about lazy workers.
'Mr. Sheriff. Maybe Robin didn't do it. Anyone could have taken it.' Marian said beginning on her third attempt. 'You know who it could have been? The Schumachers they had lots of wallets in their bag.'
'Marian you cannot go around accusing innocent people' Edward bit.
'He has been named at the scene and he has no alibi.' Vaisey stated. 'Come Guy. All show what it is like to fire an employ.'
'No. Mr. Sheriff I know Robin didn't do it.' Marian stressed becoming frsutrated. 'I know he did take it because he was in his room all night.' Marian said as she admitted the truth. 'And the reason I know... is because I was with him.' She said looking at the hurt and disappointment in her fathers eyes.
RHRHRHRHRHRH
After her revelation Edward had almost dragged her home. He had yet to speak to her, but the words that came from his eyes were enough. He had been sitting out on the decking looking into the lake for almost two hours now. Marian had had enough, she had to clear her conciounce and get the heavy weight from her chest.
'Daddy.' She whispered as she walked into the decking. 'I told you I was telling the truth.' She added. 'I'm sorry I lied to you.' She said when he did not reply. 'But lied to. You told me that everyone deserves a chance...but you meant everyone that was like you.'
Edward looked down sadly. She was right. But he was to proud to admit it.
'You told me you wanted me to change the world, make it better.' Marian continued as tears came to her eyes. 'But you meant by becoming a lawyer or...and economist, and marrying someone from Harvard and having the perfect life together.' The tears began to run free from her eyes. 'And I'm not proud of myself, but I'm the only other member of this family and you can't keep giving me the silent treatment.' She instructed as anger began to mix with her emotions.
Edward sat looking out onto the water as he took in her words. In truth he didn't know what to feel or what to say. Just to listen.
'There are a lot things about me that aren't what you thought. But if you love me, then you have to love all those things about me...And I love you.' Marian was now in hysterics as she watched her disappointed father. 'And I'm sorry I let you down. I'm so sorry, Daddy.' She wept. 'But you let me down to.' She sobbed as she ran from the decking and the apartment she stayed in.
RHRHRHRHRHRH
Robin had searched everywhere for her. He had been told by Vaisey that the real theifs had been caught and that he was off the hook. He could not believe Marian had come clean to her father just to save his neck. He sighed in relief as he checked the last place he thought she would go, the old dance studio where Much had taken her the night Sarah was crying. He threw his jacket over the chair and watched as she slept on the old worn bed. He nudged her to make sure she would wake.
'I have been looking for you all over.' He stated. 'They found they Schumachers. They are wanted all over and it was them who stole the wallets.' Robin smiled as her face brightened as she jumped up from the bed.
'So then its alright.' Marian smiled. 'I knew it would work out.'
'I'm still out Marian.' Robin told her.
'They fired you anyway because of me.' Marian said hurt.
'And if I leave quietly i'll still get my summer bonus.' Robin told her sickly.
'So I did it for nothing.' Marian stated angry as she started pacing. 'I hurt my father, you lost your job anyway. I did it for nothing!.'
'No Marian not for nothing. No one has done anything for me like that.' Robin told her.
'Your right Robin. You can't win no matter what you do.' Marian snapped.
'No. I don't want to hear that from you. You can.' Robin said as he walked over to her and took her in his arms.
' I used to think so.' She whispered into his chest.
RHRHRHRHRHRH
Marian leaned against the bonet of Robin's car as he put his last bag in the boot. He had said goodbye to Sarah who had to leave as she was crying to much. Marian shaked as he walke down the car to her. He had to leave, but it was all to soon.
'I can't imagine what it will be like here without you...Not seeing you every day.' Marian smiled trying to hold back her tears.
'Ah just think you'll have more time for horse shoes and croquet.' Robin smirked trying to make light of the situation.
'I don't want you to go.' Marian sighed sadly as she lay her head on his chest.
'I'll never be sorry.' Robin said as he wrapped his arms around her.
'Neither will I.' Marian smiled looking up at him.
Robin took her face in his hands. Studying it knowing that he may never get to see her again. He kissed her lightly on the lips.
'See ya.' He whispered sadly as he got into the car.
Marian let a tear fall as she thought about the last kiss. She may never get to feel his soft delicate lips again. Her heart broke as the car drove off leaving the resort in a cloud of dust.
'Goodbye Robin.' She whispered.
