   Summary

   Steve was too scared to bring it up whenever one of them called. What if they indulged him on the roof? Were they ever serious about the meet-up? He was honestly afraid to find out if it had all been a hypothetical.

   Against all odds, though, they were able to make plans to meet up two months after that day on the rooftop.

   According to Robin, both Nancy and Jonathan asked her about it every single time they called until she had gotten the confirmation from her uncle and interrogated Steve on when he would be free.

   And that… that felt good.

   Life might be busy- and the meetings are by no means monthly- but Steve, Robin, Nancy, and Jonathan choose each other time and time again.
