Summary
Nancy doesn’t know how to help him, how to fix this. All his anger, his melancholy had lived with him for so long that he had turned them into the labour of everyday life. Something inherent and unavoidable like breathing. Jonathan’s loneliness, his isolation were planted in him before he even knew what they were, the roots seeping into his very core. Nancy doesn’t know how to weed them out. She doesn’t know how to save him.
*
Nancy, Jonathan and the 18 months between season 4 and 5. They love each other, it's hard.

Summary
She can talk, smile and joke around with everyone else but when her eyes falls on him, they pass through him as if he’s invisible, as if he’s a ghost she couldn’t be bothered to investigate. He feels like a ghost too.
***
He loved her then. Sleep-deprived and scared, and on the verge of death, he was in love with her. She knows and she wants to go back, to that night, to that room, to that dusty old chair where she could love him back.
***
Where Ace is dead either way and Nancy is turning into nothing and they're both miserable.

“What?” Ava asks.“Nothing.” Bea shakes her head, silently laughing.
“Come on, tell me.” Ava insists again, actually curious.
“No, it’s just.” Beatrice waits for a minute. “I just never thought that this would happen to me, you know. I never thought I could ever be this happy.”…
Ava and Beatrice and the soft days that follow.

in the summertime, we'll be in love again by bimb0baggins, prollyaghost (bimb0baggins)

Summary
Steve Harrington had been handed the world on a silver platter. By twenty-two, he'd sold millions of records and was headlining the Indianapolis Summer Music Festival.
By the same age, Jonathan Byers had just graduated from Indiana State, broke, in debt, still living at home, working two jobs on top of his photography assignments for the Indianapolis Star; and he had only requested working the main stage because it meant his girlfriend, Nancy Wheeler, would get to see Steve Harrington live.
Whatever made her happy. It wasn't like he had to like the guy.

Summary
"Sometimes, Jonathan catches himself looking down at his scarred palm and remembering the feel of her fingertips tracing over it. He thinks about this mark much more frequently than the one on his hip. It feels more significant; He’d given this one to himself, after all. They’d chosen it together, him and Nancy, standing in his living room. Knife to palm."

(I Know) Where You've Been Hiding by ceruleanandconvalescence

Summary
Jonathan and Steve haven't spoken in months. Steve almost prefers it that way, because at least he knows how to act. Don't get too close, don't get caught staring, don't let anyone know--they're easy rules to follow.
But, when Jonathan goes missing, and the quiet town of Hawkins is suddenly not-so-quiet, it becomes harder and harder for Steve to hide the truth. He's not even sure what the truth is, anymore. He's not sure he wants to find out.
---
A rewrite of S1 centered on the premise: What if Jonathan went missing instead of Will? (And: What if Steve and Jonathan were childhood friends turned enemies turned lovers turned enemies again?)Series

Summary
Calling the monster a demogorgon did not make it any easier to fight, only to identify it. Having a name for the symptoms only serves to label the beast. It does nothing to stop you from reliving it. Is the passage of time a curse or a cure? You don’t know anymore, and you’ve twisted yourself into knots trying to sort it out.
or Jonathan Byers muses about the passage of time.
