Summary:
“That was mine,” Nancy said, tapping her fingers against the empty bottle on the table as she walked by and taking a seat perched on the arm of the couch. All the empty seats in that basement and she still had to choose the one closest to Robin.
“I know. Why are you here?” Robin asked.
“I broke up with Jonathan.”
“Wow. Finally.” Her voice was flat and emotionless.
“So I figured I’d just sleep here tonight to give him some space and have a celebratory drink. But…why are you here drinking my vodka alone?”
“Because Vickie dumped me and unlike you, I actually liked my relationship,” Robin said harshly, refusing to look at Nancy.
Nancy placed her hands on her lap and looked down sheepishly. “Oh…because of last night?”
“Of course because of last night,” Robin scoffed. “Jesus, Nancy. Why would you do that? I told you. I told you not to answer it.”
“I just thought it would be Steve—”
“That’s bullshit and you know it.”
Or, Vickie breaks up with Robin and it’s definitely at least partly Nancy’s fault. Angst and smut follows because these two are in love even if their timing is horrible.
