Fics like stuck to the gum that's stuck on your shoe

“Talk to me, Steve,” Robin says, “please.” And now she sounds upset, and that makes Steve feel even worse. He doesn’t want to say it, doesn’t want to make Robin feel bad. She’s been so excited ever since she got that letter in the mail, going on and on about the linguistics program she’d been accepted into, about the campus and how gorgeous it is, about the surrounding city and how much there is to do there. Steve doesn’t want to rain on that parade more than he already has. But he knows that she’s going to wheedle it out of him eventually. Might as well rip the bandaid off now. He can barely bring himself to say it. It hurts too much to acknowledge. But he does, because he has to. Because he will have to. “You— you got into college, Rob. You’re going to leave,” Steve finally tells her. Whispers, because if he says it too loud he thinks he might break again. “Oh, Steve,” Robin breathes.
