Date Night
Robin Buckley x fem!reader
Summery: Friday night dates might just be your favorite thing as long as heartfelt car rides follow after
A/N: I've been kind of inactive lately but I've decided that instead of pouring over old pieces I'm just going to write and rewrite unpublished things to hopefully get me back on track :)
“Come on Robin!” you yelled running into Scoops Ahoy at the end of her shift. “Robin, your girlfriends here!” Steve yelled into the back giving you a small greeting while serving a few kids as Robin threw open the back door with her bag thrown over her shoulder. Shouting a quick goodbye to Steve while grabbing your hand and she gave you a small peck on the cheek, laughing as the two you ran through Starcourt mall weaving through parents and kids.
“What should we see?” Robin asked swinging your intertwined hands back and forth while staring at the new movies they were showing for your annual Friday date night. “Well Ghostbusters is supposed to be good,” you said with a smile thinking about how much Dustin had raved about it after he had gone with the boys the week before. Smiling at you she said a small “Sure” the two of you stood in line for your snacks and drinks.
‘There is no Dana, only Zuul’ Taking a sip of your drink you glanced at your girlfriend noticing she was completely enamored with the movie. Leaning over as much as you could with the armrest in between the two of you, you whispered “How you liken the movie” only for her the slowly turn her head with wide-eyes “This is the best fucking movie I’ve ever seen” she said before giving you a huge grin and wrapping an arm around your shoulders, encouraging you to lean into her while she turned back to the screen.
Walking out of the dimly lit theater as the ending credits played Robin turned to you while depositing her 3-D glasses in the bin whereas you shoved yours into your pocket. “Isn’t it nasty to think that the majority of people in there were either kids or kids our age swapping spit?” laughing at her while bumping her shoulder you let out a snort “That was just nasty man, I just took you on a romantic date to see the best movie of the perhaps century according to you and you felt the need to completely ruin the mood, such a cock block” you said as she slung an arm around your shoulders while kissing the crown of your head as the two of you walked out the front doors of the mall to Robins beat-up car Bessie. “I had a really good time tonight,” you said as you climbed into the car while Robin swung herself in, rifling through her bag for her keys. Looking up at you with a soft look she smiled “I did too,” she said before leaning over the console just as you had in the theater to whisper to her, only this time she pressed her lips sweetly against yours only stopping because she had felt your lips curl up into smile rendering you unable to keep kissing her. “What’s so funny?” she asked while you slumped back in the passenger seat with a huge grin while she started the car. “Nothing,” you said now covering your mouth and looking out the window with a huge smile. “Nothing? Oh, I’m sure” she said amused while pulling out of the parking lot, sparing you a glance while slightly speeding up to make the light before it turned red. “It's just-” you said looking over to her as she flipped the cassette player to a familiar tune of the mix-tape she'd made for you months prior. “I think I love you,” you said slightly laughing while she tuned to you with a slight smirk “Is that so?” she said rounding the corner of Bluer Street. “Yeah, I think I do,” you said leaning your head back against the seat with a happy sigh. “And now thanks to you I owe Steve 10 bucks,” she said making you turn to her in confusion “Wait- what do you mean?” “I bet him 10 bucks that I'd tell you first,” she said reaching for your hand over the console with a loving gaze. “So are you going to say it back?” you said mouth agape while she laughed, pulling the car into her neighborhood. “I thought that was implied" she said glancing at you as she looked down the street for her house. “Well I'd still like to hear it!” you said with a laugh as she pulled into her drive way. Snorting as she switched the ignition while turning to face you, only now illuminated by the headlights bouncing back off her garage in the now dark driveway, she reached up a hand to hold your face as you leaned into it. “I, Robin Buckley am in love with you,” she said giving you a quick kiss before she was out the door in a matter of seconds, throwing open you’re door to give you a real kiss.
“You girls are home a bit later than usual,” Mrs. Buckley said while Robin rolled her eyes, impatient to go upstairs to change out of her work uniform “Sorry Mrs. Buckley, we went to the movies and it ran a bit later than we expected,” you said sweetly with her mother cooed at her ‘best friend’ who Robin always claimed she loved more than her only to get a smile and a, “I think Y/N’s a lovely girl” “Will you be staying the night?” her mother asked snapping Robin out of her daydream. “If it alright with you?” you asked once again charming her mom, making Robin roll her eyes with a smile. “Of course, of course! Just tell me if you girls need anything!” Mrs. Buckley called as Robin was already pushing the two of you up the stairs while grumbling a “Will do Ma!” Laughing at your girlfriend’s antics as she threw her bag down on her desk chair while flopping down on her bed you walked over to her dresser to pick out her nightclothes and the spare hoodie Robin always kept tucked away for you. Throwing them at her with a laugh you stripped off your day clothes in favor of the sweater and a pair of Robins boxers after a long day at work, ready to curl up and watch some shitty cable with the love of your life.

It’s about six days since you got a job at Hawkins Family Video. You think the experience has been great so far. You’re a fan of some movies and TV shows, and it’s what inspired you to become an actress or director someday.
It was a normal day. You came out from the backroom holding a box of cassettes, walking to the ‘new releases’ shelf. You took one out, filling an empty space. You took out another until you hear some loud laughter from across the room. You turn around to see where it’s coming from.
It was your coworkers and fellow students from school, Steve Harrington and Robin Buckley.
You held the cassette in your hand. Besides, laughing they were also talking about something, probably making jokes. You let a hopeless sigh, your eyes focusing on the girl. Your inner thoughts come in.
God, she’s so pretty when she laughs. I love how her freckles paint her face so well. Her eyes are like looking at the ocean.
Further thoughts rush in your head until a familiar face blocks your view. You snap out it and see Keith, your manager.
“Y/N?” He said. “Time to go back to reality, please.” He was holding an open bag of Doritos in his hand.
“Hi, Keith. Sorry, I got distracted.” You say as you remember that you had a cassette in your hand and put it on the shelf.
“It’s fine.” He turns around to the direction you were looking at. “What were you looking at? Steve?” Crunch, you heard, when Keith slipped a dorito in his mouth.
Steve?
Even though you weren’t, you decided to lie about it in panic.
“Um, yeah. I was. I like how his hair looks. It’s cool and shiny. So much it distracts me.” You said, with a fake answer hoping he would believe it.
Keith gave you a look that silently called you weird.
“Okay…” He said. It looked like he wanted to add on something but didn’t bother. “I just wanted to say get back to work. These cassettes aren’t going to shelf themselves.”
“Alright. I’ll get to it.” I said, then he walked away. You roll your eyes and continued your task.
You knew you liked girls. You were out to some people, including your family, but not everyone. You had crushes on straight girls, for example, Nancy Wheeler was one of them (and she never end up knowing so). Currently, you have a crush on Robin Buckley, but you suspect that she’s straight as well. You wanted to ask someone who’s close to her if she liked girls. Also known as Steve.
As you were done filling the shelf, you turn you head around to see Robin about to leave from Steve. You thought she was going to the other way but it looks like she going to your way. You internally panicked, you were already nervous that you were going to make a big fool out of yourself.
Here she comes.
When Robin got closer, she sees you and starts smiling again.
“Hey, Y/N.” She said.
“Oh, um, h-hi, Robin.” You said.
“Are you alright? Do you need help with those?” Robin looked down at the full box and asked.
“I’m fine. Thanks for the offer, though.” You denied her assistance as she looked at you again. “So, what’s up?”
“I’m was just going to take a bathroom break.” You frowned. Robin was about to leave then stopped. “Oh hey, don’t forget, if you need some help, I’ll be there.” Robin promised and you smiled politely.
“Thank you, Robin.” You thanked her and she replied with 'no problem’ and left. You watched as she went to the bathroom and saw the door closing. You thought it was right time to go ask. You walk away from where you were and walked to Steve who was standing in front of another shelf.
“Hey Steve, can I ask you something?” You say.
“Oh, hey, Y/N! Sure, anything.” Steve replied.
Here you go.
“Are you and Robin… dating?” You asked.
Steve shook his head, surprised.
“Me and Robin? Pssh, no way. We’re just friends.” He answered and you felt glad.
“Really?” You say, wanting to make sure.
“Yes. By the way, she’s… not into guys. She into girls. I learned that one time we were high at the mall, we were talking about other things and she came out to me. I’ll admit, I had a crush on her before she told me.” Steve explained and you nodded.
“That’s great. That’s really great.” You say, and you didn’t hide how glad you were to find out your crush was gay as well. It was relieving.
“That I had a crush on her before she came out to me?”
“No. I said great because she likes girls too," You said. "I’m gay, Steve. I have a crush on Robin. I didn’t have the guts to tell her that because I thought you two were together. And after getting answers, I really want to tell her how I feel.” You come out to Steve and he seems understanding and supportive. You talked in a low voice to him, not wanting people around you to listen.
“Now that sounds great. We may not talk much, Y/N, but I’m interested in helping you. Helping people is in my blood nowadays.” The mullet-haired guy said. You smile until it faded when you remembered something.
“Wait, does Robin like me? Does she know that I like her?” You ask more questions as you wanted to know the answer.
Your question was left unanswered as Robin came back and sees you two together. Even when you talked lowly, you still hoped she didn’t hear what you just said.
“Hey, guys. Whatcha talking about?” Robin smiled, seemingly back from the bathroom.
You and Steve looked at each other, mentally scrambling to find a topic to talk about.
“We were talking about… movies.” Steve picked the fake conversation topic and you went along with it.
“Y-yeah, we were just talking about 'Back to the Future’. We’re wondering if they are going to make a next movie.” You responded. “If they are, I would like to see it.”
“Me too, I think.” Steve added on.
“Alright…” Robin looked at both of you weirdly, then laughed. You witnessed her laugh again and oh, it was like watching your favourite video in real life.
“Actually, Y/N has something to show you. It’s in the backroom. I’ll cover for both of you.” Steve made up an excuse to get you and Robin alone. Robin turned to you and you just nodded.
“Okay. Let’s go.” Robin said, leading the way. You followed her to the backroom, which was for employees only, and had the sign on the door that said it. Steve happily watches you two going together and hopes that his helping worked.
Robin opened the door to the backroom. It had lots of inventory in it, cassettes in boxes and shelves, posters, a TV with a vhs player attached. It had lots of room too.
She closed the door behind her. You two stood across each other, not too close.
“So, what is it that you wanted to show me?”
You chuckled nervously when decided to just tell her that there wasn’t anything to show her.
“Nothing. There wasn’t anything I wanted to show you. Steve made that up.” Robin rolls her eyes playfully. “I actually I got you alone to tell you something.”
“Okay, tell me.”
You took a deep breath.
“Robin, I’m gay. And I know you are too. Not only I wanted you alone to tell you that, but there is something else.” You take another deep breath. “I... like you.”
Robin nodded slowly, clearly impressed. She took a step close to you, making you get a tiny bit nervous.
“Thank you for being honest, Y/N. If you don’t mind, there’s something I want to tell you.” It was Robin’s turn to talk. You don’t reply to her sentence, as you stayed quiet. “I like you too.”
You felt like your heart missed a beat. You couldn’t believe what you were hearing. Robin Buckley likes you too. And she’s also gay! Suddenly, this was your lucky day. This is not a dream.
“Wait, for real?” You took a step closer to her.
“Yeah, I do. Hey, at first, I thought you were straight.”
“Me too! I even thought you were dating Steve.” You added and Robin giggled.
“Me and him? Please. He may be a dingus, but if I was straight, I wouldn’t date him. I’d say we would be better off as friends.”
“Yeah.” You laughed quietly with Robin until the room was filled with silence again, the addition was awkwardness. The two of you didn’t know what to do after that, as you broke eye contact looking into space. Robin widened her eyes for a second and fixed her eye contact back on you.
“I have an idea.” Robin bit her lip, smiling. You notice it and you’re hoping it’s something good.
“What?” You simply asked and smiled back.
“How about we do this?” And then, she leaned in for a kiss. You didn’t having a problem kissing her back and it all felt good to you. She had two hands on each cheek on your face. Eyes closed, and instead of your heart skipping a beat, it was racing because you finally got to kiss your crush. The kiss lasted for three seconds when you two finally pulled away.
The two of you had two big smiles on your faces; not afraid to hide it, including the blushes on cheeks.
“So, what are we?” You ask, now having a your hands on her waist and Robin did the same.
“Would you like to be each other’s girlfriends?” Robin gave you an idea and you were happily excited to agree to it.
“I would like that so much.” And with that, you gave your new girlfriend a kiss on the lips.
“My girlfriend. I love the sound of that.” Robin said. “Now, as much as I wanna spend more time with you in here, we gotta go back to work.” You two let go of each other, ending the sweet moment. You groan. You didn’t want it to end.
“Agree. I love you, Robin.” You finally say, allowing yourself to let the word like evolve to love.
“I love you too.” Robin told you as you held her hand and she opened the door to let you two come out of the backroom. You’re pretty sure as soon Steve sees you two hold hands, he will be so glad, and probably will be asking a lot of questions (and proud of himself for helping someone, especially getting a couple together).
