Summary
“Are you flirting with me, Nancy Wheeler?”
Nancy turned the color of the berries she and Robin had spent the whole morning picking.
“N-No,” she gasped. “No, I was just—I wasn’t—”
“It’s okay, Nance,” said Robin, flashing a toothy grin that bloomed into a soft laugh. “It’s not like I mind.”
Nancy looked at her incredulously. “You…You don’t?”
Robin shook her head. “I’m flattered. Everyone knows you’re the most beautiful woman in Hawkins. It’s kind of nice to pretend that you might want somebody like me as frightfully as we all want you.”
OR: the one in which Nancy Wheeler is the God-fearing daughter of a close-knit community’s corrupt pastor, and the things she longs for Robin Buckley to do to her would make even the Devil blush.

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
Robin showed up at her door on a Thursday afternoon, no warning, and said, "Want to walk?" Nancy grabbed her jacket without answering because the alternative was sitting in the living room while her mother and Joyce Byers made small talk and pretended everyone was fine, and Nancy would rather freeze to death than do that for another hour.
OR: Hawkins fall 1986. Nancy breaks up with Jonathan, Robin wears an insufficient denim jacket through a supernatural winter, and they both pretend they're just friends right up until they're not.

Summary
"Can I know... what happened between you and Jonathan?"
Nancy stiffened. She stared into her drink, breath fogging in the cold. “I loved him. But, I didn’t feel the spark. Nor with Steve. I thought love and kissing felt all fuzzy and nice.”
Robin turned, studying her. “Like some warmth?”
Nancy nodded, eyes glimmering. “Time stopping. Fireworks.”

Before Robin can think it through, she marches towards Jonathan, catching up to him easily and tapping him, hard, on the shoulder.

“What the hell is your problem?”
Jonathan furrows his brow. “With… Steve?”
“No,” Robin snaps. “With Nancy.”
Less than two months after they graduate, Robin punches Jonathan in the face.

Summary
Their knees stayed pressed together, denim against denim, the small point of contact hotter than it had any right to be. Robin could taste the ghost of Coke every time Nancy breathed out, sweet and chemical and close enough that she could almost feel it on her own lips.
She hadn’t moved her hand from where it rested on the floor, palm up, fingers half curled. Nancy’s little finger had settled against hers sometime in the last minute, barely there, like an accident that neither of them had fixed.
Robin swallowed, but words climbed up her throat before she could think better of them, “I understand why all the boys in this city are crazy about you now.”
