He didn't mind running the place by himself, it would be a quiet weekend, everyone would be at the dance at Hawkins' school, everything but you and him. His determination only to see the smile of Robin, who in the last few days had acquired a small date with a girl with whom she had been knowing for some time, unfortunately family video did not plan to close that day, so he offered himself, it was a pure instinct that came out of him, he just could not take this from Robin, and in a way it was a way to correct old mistakes of the past, so he was alone in the store, watching as everything started to get dark, reading some bad gossip magazine until you arrived.

—"Do you want...something to eat?"

He asks with curiosity, seeing you sitting behind the counter next to him in silence, he doesn't want to strike a chord, it's clear that you were planning to go to the dance judging by your clothes and hair, you look incredibly good, and you've never been the talkative type with him, but that didn't prevent him from taking out his protective sense with you, sometimes they'd tell him babysitter, but so what?.

—"Are we going to sit around pretending that nothing happened?"

Finally with a long sigh he leaps across the counter to stand in front of you, staring into your eyes waiting, longing for an answer, his hands go instinctively to his hips, with a small smile.

—"Look, if it was a girl I understand, okay?, it's happened to me, I've lived it, so just tell me, we can...,I don't know, criticize the person who let you down or I don't know, something"
