Always Been You (Robin Gibb Fanfiction)

Chapter 107

- Skips Some Time It's like mid November but not Thanksgiving time yet -

Y/N's POV

My second and last day off for the week was here again. It kind of got tiring at this point in my life. I know how life is you work 5 days a work until you retire. And I know some people even work like 7 days a week but this is really starting to get to me. I love my job so not that is not the issue here. It is kind of just like you get so used to a routine and you begin to tire out. The holidays are around the corner as well which is kind of nice. I just don't know how it is going to be because I have my days off and stuff. We get to fly out to America again like we do each year for Thanksgiving.

"I can tell you are getting to be so tired my love. You need to take a step back." Robin says 

"A step back from what?" I ask

"Picking up so many extra shifts. I know you are trying to help out but you know it is not good on you." Robin says but looking me 

"But, helping out and taking up those shifts is good. I get to help out people with the days they can't work." I say

"Yes, I know but you can't help others if you do not help yourself first." He replies 

I would look at him.

"You have got to listen to me, okay? I know what it is like trying to help everyone possible but it is not really possible to do so. You are going to burn yourself out so quick." He replies 

"I never did think about it that way. I just thought it would be good for me to help fix other people's lives in a way I guess." I say

"Again that is not something in your control. There are other people who are I am sure willing to help if you do not." He replies 

"I guess you could be right. I should take a step back and try to catch a breathe." I say

"Yeah, and we will be going to America soon so I do not want you to be all burned and bummed out going into America. It is going to be a lot of fun seeing your family like we do every year." He says 

"I think it will be a lot of fun. I am looking forward to it so much which is exciting in so many ways." I say

"I know and your brothers when they call I see how happy you are to talk to them. And same thing with the rest of your family." He says 

"I think it is nice to be able to have family so close to you even if you are in different countries. It shows you how much you guys care about one another." I say 

"And that is why you are your family make me so happy. You guys are the example of how a family should be when they is miles apart from one another." He replies 

"I guess tomorrow I will let my boss know I am not going to be able to pick any other shifts up for the rest of the year. It is going to be hard though." I say

"I believe in you and I know you will be able to do it." He replies 

"Thanks my love." I say but with a bit of a smile 

"I am always going to be your number one supporter and you know it." He replies but kissing my cheek

"I am so glad we actually had this conversation. I think maybe as time goes on I will learn to take life just one step at a time and not too much like one leap at a time." I say

"I mean leaps and bounds are good roads to take but not every single time you go to do something. I feel like if you do something new or crazy once in a while it keeps life interesting." He replies 

"Well, yes I would have to say the same thing. I just think life changes so quick we never know what is going to be coming next." I say

"I feel like that is true. I just know we will always be together and no matter what life brings we will always support one another." Robin says 

"I am so glad you are the one I picked out of a bunch." I say but with a giggle 

"I am so glad you picked me too." He replies but with a smile 

"Why don't we go and do something with our time for now?" I ask

"I think that could be fun. What would you like to do with our time?" He asks 

"I do not know maybe we could do some sort of art or a craft. I feel like we have not done those in a while." I say

"Sounds good to me and then maybe later we could go do some book shopping and pick up some new pieces for our collection?" He asks 

"I love that idea. I feel like I have not read a book like actually sat down and read in a hot minute." I say

"I think that is true but when life is so busy there is no time to just stop and think for a second." He replies 

"I know but I wish there was a little bit more of times where we can sit down and relax." I say

"It will happen and I promise it will not be when we retire." He replies 

"I wish I could just work with you some how. I feel like that would be an interesting take on life." I say

We would head out into the living room and bring out the arts and crafts things we have.
