Morning
She woke up next to him in the morning, and she finally feels like she's where she's supposed to be. She looks up at him, smiles a bit, and buries her head deeper into his chest. He pretends he doesn't notice, but pulls her in closer, they lie there for a while, adjusting to this familiar setting, but this time it was different. She takes a deep breath and he strokes her hair. "So…" she says
"Does this mean?"
"Or were we just…"
"I don't think that's all…"
"So this is more than…"
"Yeah," he sighs, but then she kisses him again, and any worry about all of the things that just happened is gone, all he cares about is her and never being apart.
"I think we're ready this time," she says, "you know, for something serious," she definitely was, she wanted to show herself that love was real, and that even she could have it.
"I guess so, I mean, I'm honestly starting to get bored of my usual…lifestyle, and if I had to pick someone to be with, it would definitely be you," another kiss, this time more intense than before, Robin had never been someone's first choice before, there was always that other perfect girl out there that she could never compete with. "So, are we, you know, back together,"
"I think so," she pauses, and her blue eyes turn right to his, "I mean, I want to be,"
"Are we going to tell them this time?"
"We already had the talk I guess, so Lily won't interfere, Ted shouldn't care, and Marshall, well, Marshall is just Marshall,"
"Yeah, but what about double dates…" The dreaded double dates with Lily and Marshall, they were never any fun and sometimes a little awkward, Barney and Robin were a different kind of couple, they didn't do wine tastings, fondue fests, scrabble night, or Grey's Anatomy marathons, they were too awesome for that. They didn't let the fact that they were in a relationship define their life, they simply did stuff they would normally do, but together.
"I think we can endure it, plus, I don't think I'll be able to keep it a secret this time, I don't want to pretend I'm not totally thinking about you all the time," she smiles at him, she'd never been happy to sound cheesy before. He kisses her again, it sends electricity through her veins, and then it just slips out, "I love you,"
"Well that was fast," he comments, and they both laugh, "me too," his eyes meet hers and she smiles, things were finally turning out right.
