Summary
It is March 1986, eight months since Starcourt. Nancy has buried herself in her work to avoid acknowledging her fading friendship with Jonathan and Robin is hopelessly in love with a girl from band who she can barely build up the courage to talk to. One cannot let go of the past and the other fears an uncertain future.
When students (literally) start dropping dead, they find themselves brought together, still practically strangers. Their personalities clash, Nancy being so serious and Robin being so... Robin, irritation and confusion defining their first moments, but from that tension a spark is born. As the days drag on and they bounce around from Hawkins to Pennhurst to the Upside-Down, they come to find that they relieve the weight of each other's burdens, or maybe they make them heavier; in times like these, another person loved can just as easily be another person lost. Maybe it's best that they keep it all in, for each other's sake and their own.
But the Upside-Down does not wait for teen romance to sort itself out. There is still a killer to catch, a killer who can reach across the dimensional veil and slaughter troubled youths with his mind, and the kids in Hawkins are all on their own this time.

Summary
Robin Buckley is not expecting to find love in Hawkins, Indiana full-stop, and she’s certainly not expecting to find it in the form of a chaotic, blonde cutie who’s on the run from just about everyone. Life is full of surprises.
—
There is more electricity in the inch of space between them than there was in the whole damn storm. Robin can feel her entire body buzz. Nina’s gorgeous, wry, mouth is open, her breath is high and fast in her chest, matching Robin’s. She reaches up and brushes Robin’s hair back behind her ear and her fingertips stay, lingering, on Robin’s cheek. Her brown eyes are locked on Robin’s and, if Robin was braver, she would move forward into the moment. But she isn’t and so she looks away. Which is how she sees the number ’09’ branded into the pale skin of Nina’s forearm. And because she’s thinking about what she’s just let slide through her grasp and not what she’s saying, the next thing that comes out from her mouth is:
“Can you move things with your mind?”
And then all hell breaks loose.Bookmarked by Unicorn_Kid
