Always Been You (Robin Gibb Fanfiction)

Chapter 123

- Skips To October 1985 - 

Y/N's POV

It was a rather warm October day but then again most of the time I did not question how warm it would be. I think it was a nice thing though having a lot more warm weather through October. It was like not hot but it was not a normal chill October. I always wondered about how the temperature changes with the seasons. Sometimes it was drastic other times it would be gradual.

"I think today is a nice day for us to spend outside. I think maybe we could go for a walk in the park?" Robin asks 

"That sounds like it would be a lovely thing for us  to do." I say

"I kind of thought you would like to the idea given you look like you are ready to go spend some time in the warmth of the sun." Robin says but with a bit of a chuckle 

"I am just so glad everything worked out with the salon after the bits of work we had to put into it. I think everything will be almost normal here soon." I say

"I know you said the salon has kind of been all over the place." He replies but putting on some shoes 

"Yeah, and like some days are easier than others but you know how it goes." I say

"I know and I wish life could always be so simple with you being home. But, I know the salon is your work and we managed to save it so." He says 

"Yeah, I would love to be here more often but I do not think it is in the cards." I say

"I know but you know I am glad you are working at a place you are happy with." He says 

"I know I am glad too and so grateful for the job I have." I say but with a bit of a smile 

We would get ready to head out the door and off to the park we would go. We brought water and a few little snacks.

"It is so nice out for being noon right now." Robin says 

"I know I feel like noon is kind of the time of the day where we can choose to do things or choose not to leave the house." I say but with a chuckle 

"Sometimes we lean to not leaving the house." He says 

"I know and some of those are the best times is when we just enjoy our time inside." I say

"I know and people sometimes think being out every second is the answer. I do not think it is in my own opinion." He says 

"Living life one step at a time is the best way for me." I say

"And me too. Like here we are at the park just enjoying life instead of out drinking on the town." He replies 

"Well I could not be drinking right now but I get it." I say

"Right but not saying we would be drinking but how other people are right now. I feel like people have become detached from the reality we live in." Robin says but holding my hand as we walked around the park

"I know that is kind of what it seems like at the moment. I wish more people would come back to the reality we live in." I say

"I don't know how to put it." He says 

We found a bench and sat down to look around and take in nature.

"I think it is kind of nice we have these walks and this lovely park to be able to connect to ourselves a little bit deeper." I say

"I know I love this park and if they ever took it from us sheesh." He says but with a chuckle 

"I know I do not think they would remove it but I have seen other parks be taken down which is honestly sad." I say

"I know I do not know why but maybe it is they can't afford the upkeep of it?" He asks 

"Perhaps, that would be my best guess as well. I do not know the price of keeping up with a park but I can imagine it is kind of costly." I say

"Well of course. If the park has like play sets and stuff that adds onto the cost." He replies 

"But if it is more like just nature I would not know where to start on guessing for a price." I say

"Same like I would not know if it would be expensive or like not too bad to keep up with." He replies 

"I don't know the world is a unique place and the people who take care of it make a whole difference." I say

"Of course they do." He replies 

"I wonder how your brothers are feeling years later with the whole fame thing." I say

"I feel like they have not let it get too much into their heads you know. I could not speak for them on their own behalf but you know." Robin replies 

"Right, there is just some people who take their fame to another level. And like they put themselves on this crowned throne." I say

"That is what I hope to never be. I do not think it could be okay for me to sit with myself in that kind of situation." He replies 

"I know sometimes I wonder how other people feel when it comes to the kind of place you are in." I say

"Oh I could tell you the stories from the people I have heard but maybe I will eventually." He says but with a chuckle 

"Oh my goodness, is it that bad?" I ask but looking at him

"Some of the people I have met I have got some stories." Robin says 

"Now you got me wondering about what celebs it would be. I don't think there is nobody you are close to, that are that way?" I ask

"No, I do not get close to the people who are all in their heads. I could not see myself doing that anyways." Robin says 

"I can imagine. I don't think you would want to be close to that kind of emotion." I say

"You have a good point there. You know me so well." He replies but with a chuckle
