Hello everyone :) It has been way too long. I'm sorry. I think this will be the last chapter. I do love this story though, so I may add more in the future. Maybe a second date? Thanks to everyone who has read and reviewed. It means a lot!

As Barney and Robin sit down at the booth the whole group is practically jumping out of their seats with excitement.

"How'd it *hiccup* go?! Tell *hiccup* me. TELL ME!" Lily said, screaming. "Now *hiccup*, tell me *hiccup*. PLEASE."

Barney and Robin exchanged glances and Barney chuckled before answering. "I'm not entirely sure you all want to hear the details of our amazing, awesome, roman…"

"Do not test us, Barney! TELL. US. NOW." Marshall was yelling this time. He seemed even more worked up than Lily.

Robin spoke this time. "Well…. It…. Was…. Pretty…" She spoke extremely slowly.

It was Ted's turn to yell. "NOW."

"Ok, ok. You all need to chillax a little." Barney said, smoothly. "The date went well."

"Well?! *hiccup* Well!?! This is all we get? DETAILS!" Lily screamed again.

"Lily, sweetie. You really, really need to relax. We'll give you the details." Robin said, putting her hand on Lily's shaking shoulder.

"So first we went to an ice skating rink…." Barney and Robin then proceeded to tell the entire story of their date. They told it pretty awesomely. They even finished each other's sentences. It was quite adorable.

"And now we're here." Robin finished, smiling.

Ted, Lily, and Marshall stared at Barney and Robin in shock for a moment before answering. "Oh my…" Ted started slowly. "Whoa." Marshall finished, awkwardly. Lily was beaming. She immediately got up and ran to the other side of the booth to hug Barney. "I'm so glad it worked! I told you the mall was a good idea." Barney's expression slowly turned into shock as he shook his head at Lily to stop talking. "And I knew when you told me that Robin would secretly love the scotch in the limo you were right! I love romantic Barney!" Lily finished, literally clapping her hands with joy.

Robin was laughing hysterically at Lily and Barney. Then, she realized something. "Lily! You knew all of Barney's plans and you didn't tell me! But… the hiccups and yelling and excitement… That was fake? How did you even keep a secret for that long?" Lily smiled innocently at Robin. "I'm terrible at keeping secrets. You all know that." Everyone nodded and Lily continued. "But this one was SO important to Barney. I'm pretty sure he threatened my life twenty times before he told me. Anyway, he said he needed advice so he told me. The truth is… I didn't have to give him any advice, his ideas were perfect. I only added the champagne and from what I hear, Robin didn't even like that!" Lily finished talking, and looked at Barney with a small smile.

"Barney… that is so… romantic!" Ted exclaimed, grinning!

Robin rolled her eyes and looked at Barney.

"I told you he was going to "Ted-out" over this," Barney said.

Ted's grin disappeared a bit, but Marshall was speaking before he could reply. "So you guys obviously had a good time. When's the next date?"

Barney looked nervously at Robin. "Soon." She answered, smiling. Barney beamed, obviously extremely pleased.

"Can we go play Battleship now?" He asked, hopefully.

Robin laughed to herself before answering. "I do like Battleship!"

Barney and Robin stood up, grabbed hands, and walked away happily, leaving the rest of the group sitting in their booth.

"They're not actually going to play Battleship are they?" asked Marshall, genuinely curious.

They weren't.
