Nothing Would Change (HIMYM)

So I did write a little HIMYM fanfic. It's been ages since I wrote any fanfic, so this is just me trying to get back into the swing of things. Let me know what you think.


Barney's thoughts, post-finale

The one thing Barney was absolutely sure of was that it wasn’t going to change his life. He didn’t want to be Ted or, worse, Marshall. One woman for the rest of his life? Please. Even if Scherbatsky was the hottest woman he’d ever known and actually fun to be around, it just wouldn’t be fair to the rest of the world. There were far too many women out there who hadn’t experienced the awesomeness of Barney Stinson.

So while Ted talked about Stella (proposing to a woman after a couple of months and a “life-changing” cab ride? Clearly Ted had forgotten everything Barney had ever taught him) and Marshall and Lilly explained their apartment’s newfound plumbing problem, Barney slipped in a few lewd comments about his nurses, and everything was back to normal. Just as it always had been.

And then Robin walked in and he knew that nothing was the same at all.

Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. I worried that it might be a little too short, but it's been so long since I've written any fic, I just wanted to get my feet wet a little.

I'll keep you in mind if I need a beta! :)
