Why did this seem so romantic? It wasn't. Barney swept her across the room like a broom. Like a broom… But, like a broom.
Her mind spun. It literally spun. This was crazy! Barney? Barney… Was this right? Being here with him? Or was she fooling herself thinking this would make her feel content and safe? He seemed to read her mind.
"Are you sure about this, Robin?"
She wanted to say everything she was thinking, but her heart took control of her mouth before her brain had a chance. "Yes. Positive."
Positive? Where did that come from?
Barney took her mouth for his. He was such a good kisser. Positive. Positive. It felt like the answer to every question. Positive.
There was no turning back or hiding from the ghosts of feelings that lingered in the air every time they were together. No turning back, and it felt good.
His fingers wasted no time with the ribbons of her corset. As long as it took to get on, it came off in a twinkling. Barney grinned in fulfillment.
"I've wanted to do that since the second I laid eyes on you." He whispered into her silky neck.
Robin bite her lip, full of suspense. She couldn't wait another second. She went for it, diving on top of him. She had been yearning for this too.
Passion rose high, and the house was loud that night with the sounds of a friendship changed forever.
