Robin's been acting weird, like, really weird. Ever since she was sick... She's worried, and I'm worried about her. I don't know what's wrong, if I can fix it. She says she wants to talk to me tonight, after we go to the bar with Ted, Marshall, and Lily. We walk into the bar, and I instantly feel like I need to protect her. She sits beside Lily, with me on her other side, her own little support team. I put my arm around her shoulders, and Lily grabs her hand. There must be something really wrong. What if Robin is sick? I couldn't live without her. I can't even imagine my life without her. she is the only woman for me. She leans on me, and I feel the rise and fall of her breath. Ted asks Robin what's wrong. I snap at him. All I want is for Robin to be okay. She suddenly sits bolt upright and her and Lily rush into the bathroom. I hope she's okay. They come out, and Robin and I head over to our apartment. She seems really tired, so I make her a cup of tea and we lie on the couch. She sits up, takes a deep breath, and says this:
"I'm pregnant."
I look at her carefully to see if she's okay, and then I smile and pull her into a hug. I kiss her head and say "I thought it wasn't possible." she says that it must have been a false test, and she asks me the most ridiculous question in the world:
"Are you mad?"
I assure her that I am ecstatic, and that I love her so much. She starts crying from relief. I put my hand on her stomach. I can almost feel a heartbeat. My life is going to change forever!!
