Chapter 14: At Robin's
** 9 years ago **
"Hey, Robs." I greeted.
"Robs...? Really...?"
"Yup. If you can call me Jar Head then I can call you Robs." I grinned.
"Ugh... Fine, Jar Head." she groaned.
I laughed.
"Hey, so, do think you can sleep over tonight?" she asked.
"Mmm... I don't know. Why do you ask?" I replied.
"No reason..."
I stared at her.
"Okay fine!" she said, raising her arms in defeat. "Something happened... and I don't want to be alone tonight..."
"What happened?" I asked curiously.
She furrowed her eyebrows. "I kinda don't wanna tell you..."
"Please?" I begged.
"No." she said firmly.
She clearly saw the hurt in my eyes so she said, "I'm sorry, okay? I've shared a lot of myself to you more than anyone else... I'm just asking for this one secret... to be mine. Can you do that for me?"
I smiled to brighten up the mood.
She smiled too. "Good." she said. "Now let's have some fun!"
"How?"
She smirked... before pinning me to the ground and shouting, "Wrestling!"
I turned her over.
"I'm winning!" I laughed.
She turned me over and sat on me. "You sure?" she asked, giggling.
"You're... crushing... me..." I breathed out. "Okay, tell you what... I'll ask my mom if I can sleep over but you have to get off me first..."
She rolled off. "Deal!"
