Robin has a dark secret..one she's not ready to tell anyone. Patrick might run, and she's already had one love stolen from her in the past; why let it happen again? With some interesting twists of fate, Robin must decide to either put her fears aside and hope for the best, or put a permanent end to the whole situation..haha read please.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own General Hospital, Robin, or Patrick...but i REALLY wish i owned Patrick.
"I am so not ready for this!"
Robin Scorpio paced around the apartment, as she stared down at the pregnancy test in front of her. "It was only one time! …ok…more than one-oh, who am I kidding, WAY more than one time! But we used- URGH! What am I gonna do?!"
Usually, Robin would've been more careful than this. What with HIV and all, she knew she should take precautions. But…it was Patrick. Patrick. Drake. How could she say no?
"Well, it could've been last week in the supply closet, two weeks ago in the shower, three weeks ago at the hotel…hell; I could've been pregnant for months and not have noticed!"
And with that, she collapsed onto the couch. "Or last night on the couch," she said, losing all hope. "What the hell did I see in this couch? …You know, it's all your fault! Great…I've sunk so low, I'm talking to inanimate objects."
Only a minute more, and fate would be decided. She sat on the couch and waited.
Patrick and Robin had only been dating for about a year, but Patrick wasn't ready to be a father, and neither was Robin. She knew that, he knew that, but that one night of inconvenience was all it took, and they both should've known better.
Two Weeks Before
Patrick laid Robin gently down on the bed, laying a trail of kisses down her neck. He had done this before, many times before, so why was he not prepared tonight?
"Patrick…Patrick…do you have…?" Robin began.
"Umm…no…" Patrick interrupted, as he stopped kissing her, taking his time to do so. Seeing the disappointed look on his face, Robin responded.
"…No, please…don't stop…its ok…" she said.
"Robin…are you sure about this? I mean, what about"-
"It's ok…just…please." And that's when she gave him the look. He couldn't refuse that look. She knew she could get him to do anything with that look, and not wanting to upset him, she had made a life-altering decision. That look could seduce him to know end, and with that, they continued. They both would've have sided against it, but they were caught up in the moment. She would do anything for Patrick, and that was her choice. Not a very smart one at that.
--END FLASHBACK--
"Oh, how could I have been so STUPID?!" Robin pondered her choice as she stared down at the stick in her hands. Who would've known that fate could rest in such a small, strange little contraption? Only 23 seconds left to go, and Robin Scorpio would know the truth. Counting down the seconds on the oven timer, she waited for the truth. "One line, and I'm home free," she though. "But what if there's"-gulp…she waited for a second before finishing her thought, "two?" With all that put aside, she stared at the timer, counting softly to herself.
"9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, this is it, 1-"
"Robin?" A familiar voice was heard throughout the apartment. It was Patrick. And sitting on the table, clear as day, was that little blue stick that contained their futures. She had to do something. Anything that would keep him from seeing what she was up to. She had to act quickly. And that she did. She decided to create a distraction. And she wasn't even able to take a peek at the test before she made her move.
