    Summary

    “Did you come home from work extra early to get all dressed up for me?"

    Just for you, Nancy wants to say, but her tongue feels heavy and it takes an insurmountable effort to force the words out.

    Robin waits, patient as ever, in part because she likes to hear Nancy's voice and mostly because she takes some sick pleasure in the way she seems to suck the words out of Nancy's mouth and turn her mind blank with a well placed hand on her skin and filthy words.

    A journalist with no words, she thinks, how fucking rich.

    Summary

    “You can’t have sex?”

    Nancy made a face at her. “I’m a vampire, Robin, not a nun.”

    Which kind of answered Robin’s question, except—

    “Well you say that, but I fucked a nun once,” she blurted, then balked when Nancy’s eyes widened. “I mean—sorry. It’s just that I don’t really believe in impossible.”

    If Robin didn’t know it already, she’d have guessed that Nancy had mastered the art of self-control when she sat on both of her hands to restrain herself.

    “That’s…way hotter than it has any right to be,” she rasped.

    OR: the one in which Nancy can’t differentiate between survival instinct and being in love when she finds herself riding out a snowstorm with Robin Buckley, her first guest in ninety nine years and maybe the closest she’ll ever get to the sun.

    Summary

    Robin Buckley’s life has never been particularly exciting, but she does find that lately, it’s full of surprises.

    She’s surprised at how easy it is to excel in all of her senior-level classes. She’s surprised at how much fun she’s having with her best friend at their grating yet tolerable job. Hell, she’s surprised that Steve Harrington’s her best friend in the first place.

    And she’s never liked surprises, but these are the good kind of surprises.

    The good kind, that is, until she finds herself in a place she never imagined she’d be: head-over-heels for her best friend’s ex-girlfriend, Nancy Wheeler.

    But the biggest surprise of all may be how far Robin is willing to go to protect all three of them from the havoc that her two-faced affection would wreak if anyone was able to see it.

    Summary

    Nancy grits her teeth. They’re wasting time. The blood on the kitchen floor's gonna start drying again. Nancy needs to keep going and Robin needs to stop looking at her like that. Like she doesn’t know what to do. Like she did at the hospital—like Nancy’s some ghost to stare at, some phantom.

    “You want to help?” Nancy says, unwilling to become a spectre. “Go home.”

    Summary

    Nancy is five, and school is terrifying.

    On the first day, she wears a lovely dress — white with blue and red lines, because it looks like notebook paper — and a matching bow, and she has a very nice backpack that her mom put on credit at Melvald's, so Nancy is very careful to hang it safely on the hook in her cubby so it doesn't touch the ground.

    A girl appears beside her, and she looks just as timid as Nancy feels — because Nancy's face is always a perfectly controlled thing, even at five years old.

    Summary

    Robin feels a tug in her chest, a soft and fond sort of thing, and she thinks that it would be quite dangerous to fall for Nancy, but the feeling settles over Robin all the same and it's not an all-consuming sort of thing, really.

    Rather, it's gentle in nature, winds its way around her consciousness until she realizes, sitting here in the musty, cluttered little sound booth of the radio station, that she could fall in love with Nancy Wheeler.

    Summary

    “I told my mom I might marry a woman, and she sort of brushed it off and asked if I’d ever been in a serious relationship with a woman, so I… told her I am.”

    “What?!” Robin’s jaw dropped, “Dude!”

    “I know!” Nancy groaned, “It was stupid, I was just so mad -”

    “Didn’t she have followup questions?!” Robin laughed, “Did the lie just fall apart immediately, is that why you didn’t tell me? You were embarrassed?”

    “I told her it was you.”

    Robin’s stomach dropped.

    “What?” She asked.

    “She invited you to our house for Christmas.”

    Summary

    Robin loudly slurps her strawberry milkshake, red straw puckered between her lips. A little leftover sits in the dip of her bottom lip.

    Nancy drops her gaze to the table.

    "So," she starts quietly, swallowing down her doubt—the uncontrollable skip in her chest each time their knees brush. "Are you gonna let me try strawberry, or...?" 

    Robin looks up at her, eyes wide—expectant. The straw falls out of her mouth.

    "Or—" Nancy stumbles a little. "Let me suffer with vanilla forever."

    Robin blinks. "Uh—yeah, of course. Try away. I can get you a spare straw if—"

    But Nancy is already sliding the glass across the table, cool against her fingertips, and taking Robin's wet straw into her mouth.

    The Upside Down is gone, but Nancy still can't sleep... unless one Robin Buckley is next to her.

    She doesn't know why.

    Summary

    Robin’s brain is lagging a full two seconds behind the moment.

    Nancy Wheeler has her by the jacket, far closer than any university handbook would approve of. Robin’s hands hover awkwardly at her sides as she tries to piece together how they got here.

    “Wha—Nancy, what are you doing?” she manages.

    or, Robin thinks swiping left on Nancy Wheeler is the professional thing to do. Nancy, who has been dropping hints for an entire semester, beg to differ.

    Summary

    Nancy claims it’s about not wasting water. Robin knows it’s a lie. Between shared showers, soap-slick hands that linger too long, and the way Nancy’s attention always drifts back to Robin’s plush hips, their “routine” turns into a private language of teasing, devotion, and the kind of touch that makes Robin grumble while leaning in closer anyway.

    Nancy makes it a rule to send Robin to Family Video with food in her bag and warmth waiting at home, and one evening Karen catches the whole scene: Robin half-melted with pie and stew, Nancy massaging her shoulders and calling her sweet names like it’s the simplest thing in the world, and the house quietly holding their happiness without making it feel forbidden.

    Summary

    “You’re going to mess up your lipstick. Worked hard on that.” Nancy’s hand is gripping Robin’s chin. Her finger almost in Robin’s mouth. Pressing. Robin can’t get any relief.

    “Sorry. Bad habit,” Robin forces out. Her voice sounds rough, breathy, nothing like herself.

    Nancy smiles, kind. Even this close to Robin, Nancy looks at her like there’s nothing wrong with her, with the way she is. All of Robin’s incompetence and how uncontrollable she feels sometimes, Nancy sees all of it. And Nancy, perfect fucking Nancy Wheeler, doesn’t shy away. She wants more, more of Robin.

    Or: Robin thinks she’s losing her mind. Nancy thinks Robin likes a boy.
