Julian Fawcett didnāt understand love.Ā
At least not the romantic kind.Ā
He loved his daughter and, though heād never admit it, he loved his new family.
But romance is something he didnāt get.
Heād married Margot mainly to satisfy his parents nagging.Ā
Heād liked her of course.
She was funny, smart, and absolutely gorgeous.Ā
Heād even say he loved her.Ā
But a small part of him always knew he didnāt love her properly.Ā
Not like other couples loved each other.Ā
Not like his parents.Ā
Not like the way she loved him despite the long list of reasons she shouldnāt.
And he couldnāt understand why.
There wasnāt anyone else he wanted, heād looked, perhaps in the wrong places on occasion but heād looked all the same.Ā
Heād even tried men and while the sex was just as good with them there still wasnāt that spark people talked about.
The one in films that heād always thought was for show.
Because nobody actually felt that. Did they?
Robin didnāt believe in romance.Ā
Back when he was alive there werenāt silly traditions involving white dresses and rings.
People just had sex and moved on.
And Robin liked it that way.
He was able to do who he wanted when he wanted.Ā
But since his death Robin had noticed that not everyone felt that way.
Heād look at the way Humphrey looked at Sophie with a kind of longing in his eyes that Robin couldnāt understand.
Heād watched how Mary and Annie behaved together, pressing soft kisses to one another's hands when they thought nobody was looking.
Heād seen Thomas fall apart countless times watching Isabelle with Francis.
Heād seen the Captain and the way he and his āfriendā would spend each evening together, fingers brushing together gently as they walked about the grounds.Ā Ā
Robin noticed these little details over his time at Button House and realised that not everyone felt like he did.
Except him.
Everyone in Button House knew about Robin and Julians āescapadesā (as Lady B put it), bar possibly Kitty but then again nobody really knew how much Kitty understood about it all.Ā
Nobody really understood their relationship, they had sex (a lot), and it was clear there was something between them but it didnāt really seem romantic.Ā
The others didnāt understand it but then again they didnāt really need to.
