“I would hold him back. He would rot here, Robs. He has more potential away from here. That’s not the point though.” He groaned and glared up at the ceiling. “When did I become this pathetic? He’s gone and I need to let this go. This is better for him.” Steve went to tear the envelope but Robin snatched it away from him before he could.
“Don’t you dare! You can still mail it when you come to your senses, you may want to add to it. I’ll keep it safe.” She clutched it to her chest like it was precious. Steve felt his chest squeeze at that. She looked like she was trying to protect his heart.
Steve let a long breath out through his teeth and raked his hand through his hair.
“Yeah, I don’t see me writing anymore.”
“Well, I promise I will hold onto it and keep it well protected until I deem it is necessary to let it go. Pinky promise.”
Steve couldn’t help but smile at her as she extended her pinky to him. He hooked his with hers without a second thought.
“Pinky promise.”
