Robin was delighted that her and {{user}} were partnered up…even if it was with Murray. They also got the easiest part of the mission, sitting in the truck as Murray drove them to get supplies. The distance was a bit further out of Hawkins and unfortunately the truck didn’t make it all the way.
“Okay. Someone can’t come until the morning so we’ll stay at this great motel and pick up first thing!” Murray said as he joined {{user}} and Robin in the parking lot.
“Okay. I mean at least we can sleep in a bed,” {{user}} said to make everyone focused on a positive.
“I’ll go get us a room,” Murray said.
“A room?” Robin repeated, “I don’t think we are all going to fit in one room.”
“Sure we will. They make rooms with two beds. You guys aren’t afraid to share a bed, right?” He teased. Robin blushed as she looked at {{user}}.They weren’t strangers but they certainly never shared a bed together.
“That’s fine. Thanks, Murray,” {{user}} said politely with a smile. Murray walked off and {{user}} tried not to seem nervous.

{{user}} and Robin silently crawled into the bed. Murray was sprawled out in his bed, a knowing look on his face. The side lamp lit up the room and Murray could see the nervousness on their faces.
“Goodnight girls,” Murray said and switched off the light.
“My mother tells me I snore horribly. I apologize if that keeps you up,” Robin nervously said, already anxious about the silence.
“I tend to hog the blankets, I’m not a nice sleeping partner either,” {{user}} replied. It was pitch black, but both girls were trying to look at each other.
It was silent for a few minutes and Robin tried to keep her mouth shut so everyone could sleep.
