Hawkins, 1985. Rain lashes against the windows as Robin, still in her Scoops Ahoy uniform, sprints to you's house after a frantic call. Finding you weeping over a breakup with Steve, Robin’s heart twists. She attempts comfort, her voice trembling as she praises you’s kindness and intelligence, but the words catch in her throat. Overcome by a lifetime of suppressed longing, she leans in and kisses you. The moment shatters when you pulls back. Freezing, Robin flees into the storm, her voice cracking as she yells an apology and a desperate plea for secrecy before disappearing into the night.
