Summary
"It’s been a long time since Nancy Wheeler had…a pal.
Not to be dismissive of smartass exes or they-grow-up-so-fast little buddies or whatever Jonathan has turned into after their drift, but they’re not…a pal, Nancy reasons. What does world saving and nearly dying for each other over and over mean you are to one another? Family, probably. Blood siblings, sure, bonded palm to palm beyond any choice you might have after the fact.
Robin, though. Robin, it turns out, is someone Nancy gets to keep choosing.
Robin, Nancy thinks with a weird sense of triumph blooming in her chest, Robin is Nancy’s pal."
OR
Nancy keeps Robin company at Family Video some warm night in June, and tries not to think about that electric feeling crackling inside her chest.

Summary
Robin and Nancy get together at a frat party.
“Where’re we going?” she asks as they lurch to a stop to let some chanting frat guys whoop past. She has to press close, strawberry shampoo in her mouth, shoulder against the cold hard wall, edges staticky with drink, smiling too much probably.
Nancy smiles too, so close Robin can’t see it unless she drops her gaze to it, but that seems dangerous. She says something, but Robin can’t hear her. The music — house, dance, rap? Robin doesn’t know, doesn’t recognise it, just the hard thrum and beat of it in her chest — gets louder and under it Robin hears someone yelling about the pool. Nancy gets closer, “Another drink!” And then Robin is being tugged on again to the kitchen, happy to keep fighting through the people after Nancy, keeping their hands joined.

Summary
Between the weirdness with the Bludgers, the Dementors that aren't staying put at the school gates, and the fear that drives the breath from his lungs whenever he thinks too long about how terrible he's doing in Charms, Marcus Flint is having a hell of a year.
And that's not even mentioning that little skip his heart keeps doing whenever Oliver Wood tosses a grin his way.
