Robin Story Part 4
Tumblr media
(A/N) super off topic but i have seen this episode of criminal minds a billion times but it still makes me cry when the little boy named his protector army guy the masc name of his mom cuz subconsciously he remembered. Ahhhh I’m actually crying. I feel kinda bad making Scarlet a bad person but that was always the plan actually thats a lie i didn't mean for this story to get so long and once it did thats when i decided. This is going to be second to last part cuz if i don't end it now it'll be like 20 parts. Also in my head the kitchen is closed off so v sorry if anybody else who imagines the house different.

I decided to head towards the record store once I got to the mall. When I passed by Scoops Ahoy! I heard my name being called. I turned and saw Robin behind the counter. “Hey, I just wanted to say thank you about earlier . It saved me from a lot of embarrassment.” She said. “Its not a problem. I’d do it for anyone. And gotta say nice outfit.” I joked. She chuckled. “Yeah, I started training today it was supposed to be on just the weekends and start after school but ‘scheduling issues’.” She said moving her fingers up and down. “Well I think I should get out of the way. You have to work.” I said mostly awkwardly and turned to leave. I headed once again to the record store and apparently today is not my day because when I got there it was closed. Who closes a store at 5 o’clock? I started to walk through the mall not buying anything. At about 7 I went back to the food court. “Hey (Y/N)!” I heard Robin yell. “I know I probably look like a stalker but I just got off and want to know if you wanna hang out? Maybe?” She asked. “Yeah sure. But, uh why?” I said chuckling at the end. “You seem really nice and I’m sure helping me made you lose a friend or two.” She reasoned. “Well yeah but it's not like you were that outcasted before that. In fact I think you talking to me is going to set you off more than me.” I said. “Oh well come on let's go to my house, I don't want to be in this mall any longer than I have to be.” She said leading the way. We got on our bikes and went to her house. We got there and she headed to her room. It was basic, a full bed in the middle of the room, a closet, and desk. I sat on the desk chair. We talked for hours about everything. It was easy talking to her, like I could literally tell her all my secrets and not feel weird about it. We agreed on a lot.  Her mom and dad let me eat there but I had to leave after. The food was good but my stomach turned and I got nauseous when I remembered what awaited me when I got home. I got on my bike but took as much time as I could. To my surprise they all just ignored me and I went to my room where I saw they took off my door. Goodie. I took a shower, brushed my teeth. And layed down in my bed. Honestly, I thought hanging out with her would make me lose interest in her but I guess that was wishful thinking because this is the most I have been into her since 8th grade. The week went normal except Scarlet hates me so i had to move tables at lunch and in 2 classes. On the bright side Robin let me hang with her in the band room during lunch. Me and her have been getting a lot closer. But the week ends and Saturday comes a lot faster then it seems. I was in my room Saturday morning when there was a knock at the door. “Hi. Yes come in. You’ll have to excuse the house but I had work all week and we expected you much later.” My mom said two things why does everyone say that its annoying like no one cares and it's a lie, she doesn’t even have a place to work in Hawkins. “Can i see all the kids. I’ll need to speak to them all separately. If you refuse we will have to have them removed from the home.” I heard Hopper say. She called our names and we all went to the living room. “I’d like to talk to (Y/N) first.” Hopper said we walked into the kitchen with some lady while another officer stayed with my parents. “So this is the social worker that will be asking the questions.” Hopper informed me. She asked me basic questions like if i’m happy, if my parents are gone a lot, how they treat me, who watches my brother, and other questions where I had to lie for the answer. Once they were done with me they took in Michelle then Eric. It took about an hour and a half for all three of us and after they were done they talked for another 30 minutes. “So here's what think happened you two are gone for most if not all of every year and for whatever reason your kids are fine with it because the children's answers are all acceptable. You know what isn’t? Their body language doesn’t match but we cannot take them based on just that so congrats you neglectful pieces of shit. I’ll be on your asses for another month just to make sure you didn't show up just for the interview and if when I come either of you aren’t home your children will be taken. Do you understand?” Hopper explained bitchily. “Thats not fair I can’t happen to go get groceries without worrying if you are gonna show up and take my kids?” My mom argued. “Well then send on of the two oldest like you always do. I have run into Michelle at the grocery store more times than I can count. The children aren’t the ones with the case against them ma’am. Now you all have a good day. See you next week.” He said leaving. “You see what you did. Do you really think we deserve that?” My mom started as soon as they had shut the door. My dad has been basically silent this entire day. “Do you really think I deserved having to watch an 11 and 4 year old at 12?” I replied my dad popped up from his seat really fast and towered over me. “Never talk to your mother like that again! You are so ungrateful! We put you on this earth everything we do for or to you is a gift so show us some respect!” He shouted in my face shoving me towards the end. I kept my mouth shut going to my room. I just went on with my week like it was normal and i finally got a call back from the record store and i start on the 5th and they put me on day shift so i don't have to be with them all day. And true to my father's word they left with Eric the day he got back from camp. I was watching the news before i went to work which was good today because apparently it caught on fire last night. I called Robin to see if she knew. “Did you hear about StarCourt?” I asked her and she chuckled. “Yeah. Thats sucks right?” She said and i could hear the smile on her face. “Two people died how is that funny?” I asked not serious. “Its not i just me dealing you know hey you should come over.” She said changing the subject. “Okay sure.” I said hanging up and heading out.
