Note
This came out of left field after seeing something on tumbler. I posted this on Twitter as well!!

Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now by Starship starts to play as Robin sits on the couch, tear tracks running down her cheeks, watching as Steve backs up a bit from the record player slowly to the beat.

 

He raises his arms and slightly swings his hips before moving a hand down to rest on his hip, switching to the other hip and hand after a second. 

 

Robin rolls her eyes, looking at the ceiling, as if praying to a god she doesn't believe in, to help her. Steve pretends to play the piano (using the piano situated in his living room) nodding his head with a wide grin on his face. Robin raises her eyebrow and frowns with a corner of her mouth ticked up.

 

'looking in your eyes, I can see a paradise' he looks up before walking towards Robin. She looks away, clearly upset; not at Steve though. Never at Steve. 'Want so much to give you' his fists clench in front of his chest, then he raises them over his heart for the next line. 

 

'let em say we're crazy' he stops In front of Robin, one hand still placed over his heart while the other is outstretched, palm out flat. It's a clear indication for Robin to take his hand. She doesn't. They make eye contact for a second before Robin looks away and Steve takes his outstretched hand into his other at 'Pur your hand in my hand,' 'don't ever look back' has Steve stepping back with a bounce to his steps and crossing his arms in front of him repeatedly, making an 'x', and pointing behind him with his thumbs.

 

He spins before gesturing in a big circle 'the world around us' and breaks his arms off to his sides 'just falls apart' he puts his fists back to his chest and continues to make a back and forth motion with his hands at 'if we're heart to heart'.  

 

Robin scoffs and rolls her eyes again, but, nonetheless, focuses back onto Steve as he steps up onto the coffee table and continues his act.

 

'We can build this world together!' he starts to enthusiastically dance as he sings along 'standing strong forever, Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now!' crossing his arms again before pointing to himself and then Robin. 

 

Out of the corner of her eye, Robin sees Eddie enter through the archway of the hall. He stops and takes in the scene in front of him; Robin on the couch and Steve standing on the coffee table, before he smiles and walks over to Steve.

 

He starts to point at Robin and himself alongside Steve, making it as dramatic as possible to cheer Robin up. She shakes her head in disbelief of her two best friends. 

 

'Now~' Steve and Eddie point towards the ground "okay, I get it-" robin trys to intervene, but the boys keep on going. Steve mimics pulling a rope towards Eddie, and Eddie does the same, before they meet in the middle. They point to each other and lean in, sharing a chaste kiss before separating and focusing back on the song and Robin.

 

Robin closes her eyes and clenches her jaw, trying desperately to not do what she knows Eddie and Steve want her to do. They get on their knees and slowly walk back towards the couch from the middle of the room, goofy grins on their faces as if they know they've won already. 

 

'Whatever it takes, is what I'm gonna do.' that's it. Robins resolve breaks and she starts to sing 'let em say we're crazy' Steve and Eddie both start clapping as she continues, 'what do they know? Put your arms around me, baby don't ever let go!' 

 

Eddie and Steve continue in their charades as Robin sings. She can feel a smile growing on he face as she goes, starts dancing along with the other two. 

 

Eddie mimes playing the drums as Steve acts out trying to hit the high note. As the song nears it's end, Robin can feel laughter bubbling up in her lungs. But it's not in hysteria or sadness.

No, it's in happiness and thankfulness for these two boys. Because she knows that, even if Vickie and her do break up, she knows that she will always have her two favorite dingus'.
