    Summary

    A familiar, breathless voice picked up and said, “Steve I told you I am fine. I am staying here over winter break because I’m still poor, not because I’m depressed. Please stop calling.”

    Nancy waited for a beat as the smile hit her face.

    “Sorry to disappoint.” Nancy said. The phone crackled with background static as Robin paused just for a moment.

    “Nancy?’

    “Hi. I um…sorry I haven’t…that I’m…Robin I need your help with something. I know this is a lot to ask, but you speak French right?”

    or

    After saving the world, Robin Buckley and Nancy Wheeler both left Hawkins and its stifling expectations for them to pursue their dreams at any cost. But what if the biggest obstacle to their carefully laid plans is their growing desire for one another?

    Summary

    “I’ve been lonely,” she finishes, before she can talk herself out of saying it.

    Suddenly the look on Robin’s face falls solemn, and she reaches out to put a hand on Nancy’s knee. “Hey. Me too.” She rubbed her thumb over the material of Nancy’s slacks slightly, almost imperceptibly, comfortingly. It would be comforting, if Nancy didn’t feel like every nerve ending on her knee where Robin’s hand rested was on fire. This should be normal, she thinks. This is how girls are with each other. That’s how she was with Barb, once. But this was Robin. Robin had a girlfriend. She was gay. And Nancy wasn’t--

    Blue eyes made contact with her own, and Nancy felt something inside of her ache.

    Oh.

    Maybe there were more things than just her trauma that she had been avoiding, not thinking about. She had been busy saving the world, after all. Or maybe she did have too much wine.

     

    OR - a fic where Nancy comes to terms with her sexuality and her trauma when Robin comes to visit her in Boston.

    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

    “You don't have to hide it,” Nancy says. “You’re dating.” (It doesn't feel weird in her mouth, she tells herself). “You’re allowed to tell me about your girlfriend."

    Robin bites her cheek and passes the bottle back and forth between her hands. “I know,” she says, small. “Guess I'm just not used to it, is all.”

    “Well, consider this an exercise,” Nancy says. “Tell me now.”

    She waits a long time for Robin to respond.

     

    “I don’t really think she wants me.” The admission is barely a whisper.

    “What do you mean?” Nancy wants to tell her, of course she does, how could anyone not want you?

    Robin stares at her knees. “When we... mess around, she doesn't touch me.”
