Tumblr media
getting lost in the desert wasn't what you had planned when you left your home early this morning.
you'd been on your way to visit friends across the states and had chosen to go on a solo road trip to get there.
people did advise you not to go all alone and, looking back at it now, you understand why.
yet earlier this month, when you were planning it all out, it seemed like a great idea to do this on your own.
you had marked the route on maps, had done as much research as the small town you were living in offered, had gotten your stuff ready and packed the car up only a couple of hours ago, kissing everyone goodbye before leaving.
it isn't even your fault, when things starts going downhill:
your car has given up on you, its engine giving nothing but a pathetic little noise whenever you turn the keys.
and even if it was working like it should be, you have no idea where you are.
the map that you've opened over the steering wheel is not helping one bit. all its many lines and symbols are capable of doing is confuse you further.
you try to memorize all the turns you've previously taken as you trace the tip of your index over the paper but ultimately end up somewhere that can't possibly be right.
"fuck, fuck, fuck" you mutter to yourself as you crumble up the map and throw it onto the backseat. this won't help you anymore.
you bring a hand to your forehead and wipe away your sweat-stained hair. 
the heat is stinging where the car has stopped and, with the sun currently at its highest point up in the sky, there is no lowering of the suffocating temperature in sight.
you look around for what must be the fifth time, somehow still hoping that a town will magically appear somewhere on the horizon. or a telephone booth. or anything that could help you out right now.
but there's nothing.
just the seemingly endless and empty highway ahead, stretching out farther than your eyes can see.
you're lost and desperation slowly settles in. you have less than half a bottle of water left and you're also running short on gas.
circumstances which are definitely concerning considering your current state.
in your head, you're already trying to recall any and all survival-in-the-wilds-advise anyone has ever given you throughout your life. that is when you finally do see something.
it is just a silhouette against the beaming sun at first, but the closer it gets, the clearer becomes the image of your unknowing savior.
"holy shit, holy shit-" you immediately jump out of your car, burning your hand on the heat of the door and far too desperate to care about how stupid this must seem to others.
you're waving your hands at whoever person is riding their horse this close to a highway until they eventually notice you.
the relief that's washing over you is quickly replaced with utter surprise when you realize who is on the back of the horse.
the person in question is wearing denim pants, tight around the thighs and looser on the lower leg, as well as a blouse that is tugged into said pants. right over where a belt sits proudly.
she is wearing a hat to protect her head from the heat and the most cowboy-looking boots you have ever seen all your life.
there's even a damn lasso attached to the belt, used for god-knows-what, a picture that could've very well been straight out of your fantasies.
and even though the sight of it catches you by surprise, you can't help yourself but bite your lip: this woman is gorgeous, with freckled skin and long hair in a braid.
the horse comes to a halt a couple of meters away and she swings off of its back in what has to be the most attractive thing you have ever seen.
"someone's gotten lost i see...?" she calls out from afar, arms crossed over her chest as she steps closer in big steps.
"y-yeah i- uhm-" you stutter, taken aback by just how tall she is when she stops right in front of you. "my car has sort of given up on me....i was just- i'm on the way to visit friends and, well I guess it couldn't handle the hear...or something?"
"i see..." she smirks "want me to take a look at it? i ain't no mechanic but i know a thing or two about cars"
you can't even find the words and just nod helplessly. this has to be the most attractive woman you have ever seen.
"alright," she gives a wink and walks right past you to open the hood of your car.
concern creeps through you as smoke rises up from the engine but it is quickly replaced with a tingling sensation through your whole body when she leans over and the shirt rides up her back and reveals part of her skin.
this is not the time to thirst over a stranger, you remind yourself, but your eyes are practically glued to her body and the way it moves.
after a minute or two the woman turns around and shakes her head apologetically.
"i won't be able to fix this here" she explains, voice raspy in ways that make it hard to focus on her actual words. "but i could take you down to the farm and try again?"
normally, you would not let a stranger take you to their home without anyone knowing your whereabouts. but you're desperate. and getting murdered by a handsome cowgirl seems like a much better way to go than dying of starvation or because of the heat.
so you give her a nod and she smiles, as if she'd been hoping for you to say yes.
"we're gonna have to come back for your car" she speaks. "my horse isn't enough to drag it all the way to the farm. but i'll take care of it, don't you worry"
"uh- thank you" you mutter. "i- i would really appreciate that"
"of course" she turns around and walks towards her horse, swinging herself onto its back again. "you coming sugar-?"
"oh-" you surely hadn't expected to ride to the farm she has mentioned. but you suppose there's no way around that now. and besides, you would probably do anything to hear her calling you sugar again.
you take the hand she's offering you, one foot in the stirrup as she pulls you over the animal's back. your movements are less smooth than hers have been, from the endless practice she must have with this. but she watches your body nonetheless, obviously checking you out while you swing your leg over the horse's back.
"may i ask for your name?" she asks sweetly, head turned to look at you.
"y/n" you speak with a painfully obvious shake in your voice. "y/n y/l/n"
the woman nods her head. "robin buckley" she, robin, introduces herself.
"alright y/n. just hold onto me real tight okay?"
you do as she asks, arms wrapping around her lower half. you fight back a gasp when your fingertips sense the hard muscle under her blouse.
a shaky breath falls from your lips nonetheless and you're praying that she hasn't heard it or simply blames it on the fact that the horse starts moving with a click of her tongue.
either way, she has heard something. she turns her head and gives you a grin that has you weak in the knees.
it doesn't take long until you get to the farm she has mentioned. it takes even less for you to feel a strong sense of -what?- comfort around her...
robin surely knows how to wrap a woman around her finger and you wonder if you're the first who falls for her charming way of being.
judging by the way she leans in closer, her eyes wandering down to glare at your lips while you share a bottle of something stronger than you've ever had, you assume that you're not.
she has kept her promise and got your car for you once she has dropped you off at the farm, telling you to make yourself a home while she was out.
you took the time to inspect the place, walking around the living room and looking at the pictures up on the walls.
the house she lives in is spacious and comfortable and still, it is the perfect reflection of her. wooden walls and furniture and yet everything has a modern touch to it.
it's perfect.
when you first got here, you spotted stables as well which had you wondering how many horses she owns aside from the one she was riding before.
there are many things you wish to know about her. maybe that's just the effect her voice has on you, raspy and husky from the bit of alcohol you have shared already. but either way, you are genuinely interested in finding out more about that woman.
has she been with other women before? have they sat with her the way you are right now? has she kissed them, put them up against the wall or taken them to her room?
somehow that doesn't bother you one bit, because at the end of the day, this woman has saved you, she's done plenty for you already. and yet, after she has picked you up like an idiot who got lost and took you to her house, she still seems to want you.
her strong arm finds its way around your shoulder almost naturally as she speaks about god knows what.
you don't even pay that much attention to the words but much more to the sound; the rasp and occasional crack of her voice sending heat waves down your body.
of course, you knew of your attraction to women before but this woman specifically only solidifies the attraction. or, if anything, is worsening it: just the sight of her, the way her legs are slightly spread and one hand rests on her thigh while the other lays upon your shoulder has your heartbeat picking up its pace and the wetness between your own legs growing.
"enough about me though" she concludes "tell me some more about you, sweetheart"
her lips wrap around the bottle and she takes a sip, throat moving when she swallows the liquid.
your eyes are still focused on the way her mouth looks around the bottle and you raise your voice to speak.
"well there's not that much really" you shrug and draw your legs up to your chest, sitting down sideways on her large couch.
robin watches you attentively nonetheless.
"i- i suppose there's not that much to know about me, it's not like I'm much of an..adventurer? like you are-"
robin grins and passes you the bottle.
"you're calling me an adventurer?"
"you live on a farm!" you exclaim "with horses and...and you have a lasso and- and all that cowgirl stuff. so, yes, i am"
"well I've never been called an adventurer before" she chuckles "but i do think you're interesting, y/n. and i wanna know more about you"
"you do...?" you ask, genuinely surprised.
"of course i do!" she nudges your shoulder. "come on. surprise me"
surprise me.
god, how do you surprise a woman like robin buckley, who seems to have seen it all before?
"i-" you consider the question for a second and then drop the very first things that comes to mind. "i have...never had an orgasm during sex before"
robin's brows shoot up the second these words leave your mouth, obviously surprised by the sudden turn this conversation is taking.
soon enough, her expression turns into one of utter satisfaction with what you have said, a smirk settling on her lips.
the silence that follows, aside from that amused chuckle she lets out almost immediately, seems too pressing and you know you have to do something about it.
"what?" you grin, feeling a sense of boldness around her.
robin, still chuckling for most parts, manages to reply anyway: "nothing sweetheart, it's just- it's not some sort of magic to make a pretty girl like you cum, is it?"
you shrug yet again.
"well, tell that to my ex"
her tongue moves to the inside of her cheek in thought but it has you squirming at just how good she looks like that.
"what I'm saying is" she leans forward and places the bottle of the coffee table "you deserve better than that"
your breath hitches in your throat when she leans back in and wraps a strand of your hair around her finger. robin is much closer than before and you can feel her breath on your skin, coming in warm, short puffs.
when your eyes meet hers, you can practically feel your own pupils blow.
her gaze falls upon your mouth and her tongue darts out to lick her own lips before she looks back up at you.
"why" you breathe "think you're better than they were?"
"oh" she chuckles "i know i am"
and for some reason, you already know she is. you're just dying to find out how much better.
every second that her lips aren't on yours seems to stretch out endlessly. you scoot down the couch slightly, closer to her and let your own eyes gape at her mouth shamelessly signalizing her that you do want this.
that this is more than just a little bit of flirting and playing around.
“can i kiss you?" robin rasps.
"i thought you'd never ask" you answer immediately and pull her against you by the cheeks.
the first thing that you are able to notice is the way she tastes; her lips are so much softer than you had imagined and have a hint of nature on them, though it is hard to place.
it tastes like summer, like wind and the freedom she has out here, in the best ways possible.
her arms wrap around you while she is kissing you and push you around until you're straddling her lap.
getting manhandled by a handsome woman like her sends arousal to pool between your thighs.
her mouth never leaves yours and if it does, she always makes sure it finds its way right back against yours, kissing you in a determined way.
like she wants you, you think.
with how she's grabbing at your clothing, hands roaming your sides and fingers digging into the soft flesh beneath, you're certain she actually does.
it's not long after your first kiss that you part your lips, hungry for more.
robin gets the sign, of course she does, and licks into your mouth experimentally, awaiting your reaction.
your hands come flying around her body and you hold onto her for dear life as she starts making out with you with her back still leaning against the couch.
robin's tongue still tastes like the liquor you've drank before and you want more of it, tongue sliding against hers more passionately, silently asking for her to give you that.
"god robin" you gasp eventually "please take off my clothes"
"you sure, pretty girl?"
a frustrated groan leaves your lips when you take matters into your own hands and pull your shirt over your head, revealing your breasts for her.
you haven't put on a bra this morning, wanting the carried to be as comfortable as possible. you don't regret that choice, if anything you feel even better about it now, considering how the woman beneath you is staring at you.
"oh wow" she breathes and her voice is carrying some cracks with it at the sight of you.
her hands brush over your chest, hardly applying any pressure at all but enough for you to let your head fall back.
"touch me"
that is all it takes.
her palms meet your breasts and her fingers squeeze them, still a bit too gentle for your liking nonetheless.
there is a look of awe and desire written all over her face while she's studying yours for any kind of reaction to the way she is touching you.
she toys with your nipples, holding them between her thumb and her index.
"don't-" you hiss, eyes closed and lips agape "don't be so gentle with me...show me that you want me"
"fuck" robin curses and you grin "are you sure you know what you're asking for, doll?"
you do open your eyes at that if just to emphasize your point.
you flutter your lashes at her and whisper "ruin me" against her lips.
she keeps her eyes on yours and gives your nipples a harsh tug. she is rewarded by a lewd moan and your tightening grip on her upper arms.
"i see" robin raises a brow "you really are desperate, aren't you?"
"oh shut up" you lean back down and kiss her lips .
"shut up?"
"yeah" you hate how breathless you sound already "shut up and fuck me"
"that can be arranged"
and suddenly her mouth is all over you while her palms on the little of your back keep you from squirming when her lips wander down your neck. you're sure the way she's sucking will bruise. you might just want it to.
but it's all nothing compared to the way they feel when they wrap around your nipples.
"fuck" you cry out when she licks over them before she sucks them into her mouth.
robin repeats the action a few times, making sure to leave one hard and never without the attention of her flicking fingers when she moves to the other.
"what a sweet girl you are" she mumbles, mouth full of your tits and smiling at the way you're grinding down against her thighs. "tell me what you want again"
"you know what i want"
"i know" robin hums "but i wanna hear it from you"
you roll your eyes, your brain is hazy with want for her and at this point you would do anything to feel her touch on you, to feel her inside of you.
"fuck me".
"see? good girl..." she leans back and runs a hand through your hair.
you look positively fucked out already, lips puffy and sure and nipples covered in the wetness of her saliva.
"alright" robin puts a hand on either side of your hips "let me take you to bed, yeah?"'
your legs are weak when she helps you up, shaking in anticipation when she guides you up the stairs that lead to the second floor.
both of you can't stay far from the other though, constantly stopping to kiss heatedly. for a second, a moment of weakness, really, you doubt you'll actually make it to the bedroom: robin lays you down right on the stairs and shoves a leg between your thighs, clearly eager to test how far you're willing to go right now.
you grind against her and the moans echo through the whole house.
just a moment later, you can't recall just how it happens, you're on your feet again and she is dragging you upstairs and into the room.
it's a spacious one really and her bed is large and looks all too inviting right now.
you grab her by the collar and pull her against your half-bare body and she follows you, kicking the door shut regardless of the fact that you're all alone in the house.
you understand soon enough though, when she presses you up against it and shoves her tongue past your lips again.
her hands on your hips are keeping you upright but they are probably the only thing to do so.
your gasping and whimpering turns into unhinged moaning when her lips find their way down your body again, this time without stopping at your breasts.
she sucks a trail of marks down your body until her mouth reaches the waistline of your shorts. robin is kneeling in front of you, her chin resting against your bare belly as she looks up at you.
“can i take these off?"
you bite your lip and nod; her mouth had been skillful with your nipples already and you wonder about the magic it'll do between your legs.
her fingers make quick work of the zipper and the shorts drop down your legs and pool around your ankles before you step out of them and kick them aside.
robin runs her palm up your thighs, her gaze following the way her hands are taking in amazement.
"you're so gorgeous" she finally speaks and you bite down on your index "so, so fucking gorgeous, god, i got lucky"
and with that, she starts kissing up your inner thigh, occasionally letting her tongue dart out to lick over your flesh.
"can i taste you?" she rasps when her nose is almost nudging against your panties.
instead of answering her, you hook your fingers around the hemline of the panties and push them down, leaving you entirely bare and exposed to a very much fully-clothed robin.
somehow you don't feel exposed though. you feel almost like you want to be seen by her watchful gaze.
robin smiles at you before she lets her eyes drop to your bare cunt. you can feel where your wetness is sticking to your thighs, the cold air of the room hitting the wet spots in a way that makes you shiver.
"oh god" she runs a hand through her hair to get the bits of bangs out of her face, probably a distraction to what robin is about to do.
and then, as if she has been reading your mind, she throws a leg over her shoulder and licks a long stripe all the way through you, gathering your arousal on her tongue and moving ti upwards to spread it around your clit.
you smash your head back against the door almost forcefully and cry out for her, your fingers tangling up in her hair to ground yourself.
"you taste so fucking good" robin says from between your thighs.
her mouth is right where you want it and she seems to read your body language just a little too well, reading into each and every jerk of your hips, every moan and every slightest gasp.
the second she dips her tongue into you is when you nearly lose it, the wet and velvet sensation hitting you with so much force that you could've fallen over the edge right then and there.
it takes everything within you not to.
"you like that? when i'm inside you?"
your brain can't seem to form a proper sentence and so you just nod over and over, hoping she'll get it nonetheless.
robin does.
she leans back, her chin covered in your wetness that is glistening under the light, and smirks up at you.
"don't worry precious, i'm gonna be inside you soon enough alright? just gotta help you relax first"
and by that, robin means actually making you cum.
it's strange, really, how it seems so easy with this pretty stranger you've met mere hours ago. how she seems to know your body better than you do yourself and how she actually wants to make you feel good.
soon enough, you're so close you feel it in every nerve of your body. she is lapping at your folds relentlessly, coaxing sweet moans and loud squelching noises out of your body.
you didn't even think you could ever cum on someone's mouth.
oh how wrong you were.
"robin..." you murmur, eyes rolling back in your head for her "i think...god i think- fuck"
"don't you worry, doll" she smiles and presses her tongue flat against your clit "just cum for me. you can do it. cum all over my face, come on, be a good girl"
these words are enough to push you over the edge, sending you into the best orgasm of your life.
you pull her closer against your cunt, releasing all over her mouth.
you can feel your release flowing out of yourself but robin doesn't let a single drop go to waste, licking it up until you're squirming from the overstimulation on you.
"fuck..." you finally groan after a minute of catching your breath "that was- fuck"
"i told you i could do it" robin says and gets up from the floor. you really did make a mess of her face, your cum spread on her chin and the tip of her nose.
you lean in and kiss her, tasting yourself on her.
it's obscene really, how much it turns you on to have your own wetness on her lips and tongue. how your cunt immediately clenches around nothing, longing to be filled by robin, regardless of the fact that you've cum just now.
she chuckles when you moan into her mouth.
"didn't have enough yet?"
"fuck no-" you answer, hips jearking forward to chase her touch.
"it's okay, shh" she hushes you "i got you pretty girl...remember what you said? i'm gonna make sure to ruin you"
you gasp when she grabs you with a sudden sense of roughness and makes you sit on her bed.
"now" robin whispers against your lips "be a good girl and wait for me okay?"
you nod and she smiles before she turns around and walks towards her closet. you can't help but watch her every move, delighted to see it when she starts taking off her shirt, revealing her back to you. you would ask her to turn but your voice would probably die in your throat, so you just sit there and watch her as she strips out of her clothing.
robin bends over and you bite your lips. god you're helpless.
but how could you not, when the muscles are flexing on her upper back, giving a slight hint to the power she holds, the power she could potentially have over you if she wanted you.
a power you can't wait to get your first taste of.
but these thoughts leave you when she turns around, revealing herself to you.
she is still in a plain black bra and boxer shorts but it's more than enough. your eyes wander over her and you visilby gulp.
you weren't mistaken when you felt the abs on her stomach earlier on this day and there is a thin layer of freckles all over her skin.
she is without the shadow a doubt gorgeous.
then your gaze falls upon the item she is holding out suggestively. it's one you have never gotten the chance to see from up close but you were lying if you said you hadn't fantasized about it countless times before.
"fuck" you whimper.
robin grins and shakes your head "i knew it...you want me to fuck you with my strap?"
"please"
"it's okay" she assures, fingers working on attaching the harness to her body already "don't worry sweet girl, just sit there and look pretty while i attach this one alright?"
you chuckle and nod your head.
"yeah, i can do that" you bite your lip and she looks up from where her fingers are working.
robin's fingers work with the harness with ease, strapping it all up in it's destined position until the toy sits where it is supposed to.
your mouth waters at the sight of it.
"like that?" she grins and steps closer to the edge of the bed until she is practically towering above you.
you visibly gulp when robin reaches for your chin and tilts your head so that you're staring up at her. her features shimmer golden in the light of the sun that floods through the window at the other end of the room.
you can't help but feel a little bit exposed, sitting on the bed of a woman you hardly know without any clothes on.
a soft blush creeps up your chest and her eyes catch it immediately.
"what is it? are you okay? you know we can always stop, right?"
"no!" you exclaim, your voice far to desperate for your own liking. "i- I mean- uh- no. just a little...self conscious, i suppose"
a smile softens her features and she turns her head to the side in thought, her fingers still holding onto your chin.
"it's okay, we can take things slow if that's what you need...?"
you think about this for a second but ultimately end up shaking your head. there's something about being in this vulnerable position beneath her that does things to you. something you haven't known yet but definitely also something you would like to know more about.
"I don't need slow"
"oh?" robin smiles as if that's exactly what she'd expected. "well in that case..."
she reaches around herself, to where her bedside table is, and grabs another hat, similar to the one she wore before: a white, big one that falls over your eyes when she puts it on you.
"here" robin rasps "like this you'll feel less...naked"
you chuckle when it covers your eyes, against all odds of this situation, but robin joins you in the laughter and softly pushes it further back.
"now" she finally speaks, a look of adoration in her eyes. for someone you have just met today, you really want to get to know her better. you don't want this to end once your car is fixed. somehow, as strange as it might be, you wish to be here for longer. who knows, maybe you'll purposefully hide some of her tools when she tries to fix your car?
"be a good girl and help me get this ready for your pretty pussy okay?"
the words catch you off guard and have you visibly gasping.
when you finally gain your composure back and nod for her, robin steps into your space and reaches around your head, grabbing a fistful of your hair to pull you close.
"open up, pretty girl" she taps the tip of her strap against your bottom lip, pulling it down slightly.
you've never done this before, not for anyone really. you've never thought you would ever want it this much.
eager to obey, you part your lips for her. robin uses the hold she has on the back of your head to pull you down against her until your lips are nearly touching the base of the toy, your mouth taking it all the way.
you moan around it at the new sensation and robin rewards you by running a hand through your hair.
"you take it so well" she whispers and looks down at you in amazement, watching the toy disappear in your mouth with each thrust of your hips.
at one particular deep thrust, you can't help yourself but gag around the silicone cock.
the noise mixes with a strange sound of pleasure and it's clear that you're enjoying yourself like this.
"fuck" she groans and her lashes flutter. "just like that, get it all wet for that cunt of yours...just like that"
you can feel yourself drooling but robin makes sure to wipe it from your chin.
she pulls out of your mouth eventually, eager to finally fuck you. a string of your saliva is connecting your lip to the toy and it's glistening with your spit on it.
"look at that" robin whispers proudly and strokes through your hair "i'm not even gonna need any lube. you got it all wet for me"
you nod your head eagerly, unable to form a proper sentence at this point.
"i think you've earned it, haven't you? sucked on my strap so good, you deserve to be fucked with it now"
she walks around the bed until she can crawl on it behind you. robin sits down with her back against the many pillows and spreads her legs slightly.
you turn your head and shiver at the sight.
"fuck"
"come here" she smiles and taps her thigh "come here and ride me"
you don't have to be told twice, immediately scrambling up on the bed to face her.
you’ve already forgotten about her hat that is still on you.
when you do so, ready for her to ruin you, robin gently shakes her head.
"not like this" she says and puts a hand on each of your shoulders "turn around for me".
robin gives you a slight shove but it is enough for you to understand. so she really wants you to ride her filthy.
god this woman is going to be the death of you.
you do as you're told, turning around so that your back is facing robin’s front.
the woman runs her fingers down your spine until they can firmly rest on your hips, just above the sell of your ass.
“robin” you whine pleading “please!”
“you want something huh?” she rasps from behind you and you can feel her leaning in until her lips are lingering by your ear. you also feel the strap attached to her body, its bulge pressing against you firmly.
“then be a good girl and take it”
you take this an invitation to reach out, taking the spit soaked strap in your hand and lining it up with your dripping entrance.
“hmh” robin hums, pleased with what you’re doing. “just like that”.
slowly, you lower yourself onto the toy. robin’s deep, shaky inhale sends a soft blush of pride upon your cheeks.
you don’t have much time to focus on that, her strap now buried deep inside your aching cunt. you take each and every inch greedily and it is sucked in with ease.
until finally, you feel robin’s thighs on your skin and the base of the strap pressing against your entrance.
“how is this sugar?” she hums, her nails scratching over your skin slightly.
“so good” you exhale, adjusting to the fullness.
“i know” robin murmurs, followed by sweet praise and slow, sensual strokes over her fingers up and down your sides.
“robin!” you exclaim when the woman behind you suddenly jerks her hip forward, causing the strap to press up against your inner walls just right.
your hands reach out, desperately trying to find something to hold onto.
they rest on robin’s legs in front of you.
“you take it so well” robin whispers softly “i’m gonna make you feel so fucking good you hear me?”
her hand lands on your ass slightly more forcefully than before, a small smacking noise echoing through the room.
your eyes roll back in your head and your mouth falls open as a moan you can’t hold back falls from it.
“oh you like that?”
“hmh” you nod your head, far too desperate to feel embarrassed about the confession.
robin doesn’t mind though, she just chuckles before her palm meets your ass again, harder this time.
“fuck-“ you cry out and your head falls forward against your chest “fuck me please”.
you slam yourself back against her at the same time as you speak, leaning forward until only the tip is still inside and then taking it all the way into you again.
you never knew it would feel this good to be fucking yourself on a pretty woman’s strap.
her hands ghost over your back again, dancing up your ribcage and eventually finding their way to your waist. that is where they stay as she pulls you back against herself, supporting you with each thrust.
“oh my god” you moan “y-yes! yes fuck- harder!”
robin chuckles from behind ��you want it bad yeah?”
your head is spinning with pleasure, your previous orgasm still rushing through you while the next one is already approaching. it’s coiling in your lower body, ready to snap if you just get a little more.
“robin” you babble “fuck me harder robin please, god, please”
one of her hands is placed upon your ass while the other is dragging you back against her over and over again, helping you through the thrusts.
“oh my-“
you grip her legs harder, your nails digging half moon shapes into her freckled skin.
the strap hits all the right spots inside of you and your clenching around it only sucks it further in with each time she pumps it into you.
“so close” you whisper finally “so fucking close robin can i- please let me touch myself fuck”
“do it y/n…fuck you look so fucking pretty when you ride me like that” robin pants. she sounds breathless, proving that your actions are affecting her just as much.
you just groan and push yourself against her again before you use one hand between your legs, rubbing your clit all while you’re bouncing on top of her.
the headboard of the bed is banging against the wall, causing a noise that can be heard through the entire house.
the whole bed is creaking underneath your bodies, that’s how forcefully you’re throwing yourself back against her.
it only takes a few more clockwise circles of your index against your clit and deep thrusts into your cunt to send you over the edge.
you choke out a lewd scream when your orgasm hits you.
your head drops forward, causing the hat to drop into your face again as you feel yourself gushing around the toy that’s fucking you through your release.
you hardly notice when robin mumbles “holy shit” as you make a mess of the strap, her sheets and her lower half even.
“fuck fuck fuck” you mutter, over and over again. your body is shaking and your breathing is heavy and labored.
you can’t even find it in you to feel embarrassed for what you’ve done. either way robin doesn’t seem to mind, judging by the way she’s glaring at it in amazement when you turn your head.
you chuckle breathlessly and lift your hips just enough for her to pull out of you.
your arousal sticks against your thighs when you close them and turn around to lay on top of her.
“come here sweetheart” she whispers approvingly. “fuck you did so good for me”
robin wraps her arms around your sweat stained body and takes the hat off of you to wipe your hair out of your face.
“so good” she repeats and places a kiss to your forehead.
“do you need something? a water? anything?”
you smile at how considerate she’s with you but shake your head.
“just- can we stay like that? for a bit? please?”
now it’s robin’s turn to chuckle.
“of course we can. it’s okay, you can rest alright?”
and, oh you will, but by now you’re certain you want more than that. you want to stay. screw your plans, because you can’t leave robin behind just yet.
your plan comes back to your mind; stealing her tools so she can never fix up your car, not until you want her to.
maybe you’ll do that. or maybe you’ll just ask her if you can.
maybe you will know once you have rested like robin has suggested.
her arms sure are comfortable and your body is exhausted…
before you even know it, you’re fast asleep in the arms of robin buckley.

I Feel So Good if I Just Say the Word (R.B x Reader)
prompt: reader is in love with her best friend Robin and has a hard time saying it; based off Sussudio by Phil Collins, takes place in 1985 (only because Breakfast Club and No Jacket Required came out that year, no canon events happen) warning(s): internalized homophobia, a little angsty but happy ending, not proof-read, not edited so let me know if there’s any errors requested?: no but this song screams Robin and i needed to write for my girl word count: 1.9k
Tumblr media
There's a girl that's been on my mind All the time Sussusudio
"Put on something" Robin pleaded from the plush bean bag chairs you had set up down in your basement. You were trying to pick out the perfect movie to watch with your best friend but you were having a hard time choosing between two movies. Breakfast Club or Carrie? Breakfast Club was newer; only coming out earlier that year but Carrie was one of your favorites. You always rooted for Carrie; the poor girl was just trying to survive high school. You knew what that was like all too well and maybe that was why you resonated with Carrie a little too much. You just wished you were normal; instead you questioned who you were and why you didn't like boys like the other girls in your class. You'd pretend to check out Billy's butt like the other girls in your class but you didn't get the appeal; boys' butts were usually flatter than a pancake.
"Breakfast Club or Carrie?" you turned toward your friend holding each tape beside your head to show her her limited options. She scrunched her nose but pointed to Breakfast Club, you were a bit disappointed but popped the VHS into the player anyway. After pressing play, you quickly make your way back next to your friend. She hands you the bowl of fresh popped popcorn you had finished preparing on the stove before she had arrived for your weekly movie marathon. Marathon was pushing it; the two of you watched about one and a half movies before talking over the rest of the second movie and then forgetting about the TV completely. "Did you see how short Faith Gilmore cut her bangs?" Robin started; not even five minutes into the movie. You giggled at the memory; Faith walking into third period with part of her bangs sticking up because they just wouldn't flatten correctly.
Before you knew it; the two of you were absorbed in each other, forgetting the movie entirely. You listened as she rambled about a test she surely flunked because she forgot to study. You scowled her because you had spent the night together and she had never mentioned a test; you would have made her study instead of gossiping over magazines and gushing about the new Phil Collins album that had been out for a few months now. Robin didn't understand your obsession with the album but you found yourself rewinding  the first song over and over again on your cassette player. She makes me nervous and makes me scared.
Her smile lit up her entire her face and you swore you could get lost counting the freckles on her freckle splattered face; your heart ached in a way that you wished it wouldn't. You weren't supposed to feel this way; not about girls. Not about your best friend. Her body was turned towards yours; blanketed knees touching, fabric getting in the way of physical contact. You felt your cheeks grow warm at the thought of entangling your legs in hers and rubbing the soft skin of her thigh. Your body suddenly felt too warm and you had to fling the blanket off of you but in the process you accidentally knock the popcorn off of your lap. "Shit," you curse as popcorn flies everywhere.
Robin raises an eyebrow. "Okay, spaz, what was that about?" she questions while picking popcorn off of her lap. She had a few pieces in her hair and you cursed yourself again for being such an idiot. Your face burned as you frantically began picking up the popcorn; you didn't answer her, refusing to look at her. How could you explain yourself? Sorry I got too deep in thought about how adorable your smile is. No, never. You knew Robin liked girls as well; you had been best friends for so long and she had confided in you were she was struggling with her feelings. You didn't say anything at the time but her telling you about her sexuality had made you realize your own. When Robin said she liked girls it was like something had clicked in your brain and suddenly you were seeing girls in that way. "Okay," Robin says slowly, stretching out the word, after you didn't answer; putting an emphasizing the 'o'.
She begins to pick up popcorn which makes you feel worse for some reason; like you shouldn't have ruined the mood to begin with. Like you shouldn't have a crush on your best friend. Your hands begin to shake and before you can stop yourself; a stream of tears begins running down your face. "Hey! Whoa!" Robin exclaims once she notices the tears and sniffles; she throws the popcorn she had been collecting back on the ground before moving over to you and grabbing your shoulders. "I was just kidding. Are you okay? It's really no big deal. It's just pop-"
"It's not that," you cut her off; you felt raw and exposed like you shouldn't be crying right now. You really shouldn't be crying right now but sobs shook your body as you look down at the half-empty bowl in your lap. You couldn't look at her and you needed a moment. "Excuse me," you said quickly, getting up and running up the basement stairs. Robin didn't know if she should follow or finish help cleaning up the popcorn; she decided to do the latter figuring you needed a moment and she didn't want you to have to worry about the mess when you returned. But she'd be lying if she said she wasn't confused; what had happened to make you suddenly burst out like that? Were you okay?
Once the mess was cleaned up, Robin took the bowl full of floor popcorn and went upstairs to throw away the food and to also find you. She dumped the snack into the trashcan and put the empty bowl into the sink. "Y/N?" she called from the kitchen. She started making her way down the hall towards your bedroom; stopping to smile at your sixth grade that your mom kept hanging in the hallway. You hated it; your braces were very present and were basically the star of the show. You look beautiful, your mom had said but you just didn't believe her. It was Robin's  favorite picture of you ever because she had been giving the cameraman bunny ears to try to get you to smile because you hated your braces. "Y/N?" she said again, knocking on your door. The room right at the end of the hall. "Are you okay?" she asked softly, in her sweet raspy voice.
The softness made you want to melt and your heart began to race again. Your face flushed when you realized there was no avoiding this-her. A sigh rumbled through your body as you sat against your door; your heart ached knowing Robin was on the other side, worried about you. You didn't know what to say, what to do. Maybe if you were so quiet she'd just disappear. But she wouldn't; she'd worry and wait the whole night if she had to. "Y/N?" she repeated; worry creeping in her voice. She tried to open to door but it was locked. "Y/N? Come on, what's going on? Are you okay?" She tried the door again; as if it would magically open for her if she tried enough times.
You quickly got up from your spot; standing in front of the locked door. "I'm in love with you," you finally blurted out, not being able to hold it in any longer. You instantly wished you could take the words back but now the air was thick with anticipation and anxiety. Your body shook as the silence was eating you alive; devouring you, leaving your stomach in knots. Tears begin pooling in your eyes again; panic taking over when you heard clicking noises coming from your lock. Was she trying to pick your lock? Oh my god she was trying to pick your lock. You quickly leaned your weight against the door as she tried to make her way into the room. "No! Don't!" But it was too late; it was like Robin had suddenly become the strongest person in the world because she was pushing her way in despite your best efforts.
You turn away from her once she's made her way into your room; you couldn't face her. You couldn’t look at her, you felt sick. You were ruining your friendship right then and there but you couldn't take it back. You couldn't get her out of your head; your only thoughts were her and her dorky smile and how she smelled like vanilla and old books despite you hardly seeing her reading anything besides a magazine or an assignment for school. "Look at me," she turns your body by placing her hands on your shoulders and forcing your face close to hers. "You don't have to say it again," she breathed, her cheeks glowing a shade of crimson. "I just-I love you too and I don't want you to think you can't tell me anything because- fuck! I've been in love with you since you moved to Hawkins!" she admitted, throwing her hands up in exaggeration. That was in third grade; when Dick Robertson kicked dirt in your face (because you were new and because he could) and Robin pushed him into the mud, telling him next time she'd push him in front of the tire swing. You didn't think she'd actually do and later on she admitted she wouldn't have but the two of you still laughed at the look on his face.
Your face burned at her admission; had she really liked your this entire time? Every sleepover? Every lingering glance that you thought maybe something was there. There had been something there; from both of you and you had never realized. Had she told you she liked girls because she wanted to know how you'd react? To know if you liked her too? Well you did; it just had taken you a painfully long time to fucking realize it. Had she really liked you this entire time and you didn't realize it? "Really?" you finally found your voice; quieter and softer than usual but it was all you could muster. She nodded; moving her hands to hold your face to look at her. Her eyes were the most beautiful shade of blue you had ever seen in your life and you knew you could get lost in them if you left yourself. You wanted to get lost in them; in her. As if reading you thought; her eyes flickered to your lips before closing the space between your lips.
She tasted like cherry chapstick, a peppermint she had been sucking on earlier, and the salty popcorn the two of you had been sharing before you spilt it everywhere. It was a beautiful combination that had your mind going completely blank as you kissed your best friend back. You had only ever imagined kissing Robin; wondering exactly what she tasted like and now you couldn't get enough. Your hands gripped the front of her t-shirt; as if she'd float away if you let go, you kissed over and over until you were both out of breath. "Weird way of getting out of watching Breakfast Club," she said once you were apart and she had caught her breath from your frenzied kissing. You just laughed; relief filling your body as your watched your friend with what you could only call heart-filled eyes. You pull her into another kiss before she can say anything else; happy to be honest with yourself and free to be with the girl you couldn't get off your mind.

Okay so 1. I 100% think Robin gets turned on every time you wear your uniform.
Its a small skirt that rides up a lot, and even though its got built in shorts, the idea is still there and fuck she loves it.
Many secret makeouts in janitor closets, bathroom stalls, Steve’s car when she borrows it.
You hang out with her 65% of the time, but you also hang out with the rest of the cheer team.
The cheer team thinks she’s kinda weird but she’s your “best friend” so who cares?
Omg you drag her along to parties (she always has a good time, she just pretends she doesn’t) ands she takes Steve who is the dd.
Definitely spends the night at your house afterwards and you both drunkingly cuddle and stuff.
Maybe go a little further but probably not much because Robin is a rambler.
Loves being in the marching band cause she gets to watch you cheer, and you can sit together after the game starts.
If you have your own car you take her on dates all the time.
But lets go back to the uniform..
You know it makes her all.. yk.. but you don’t let her know that.
Sometimes you wear it after school when you visit her at work to tease her
Leading to lots of little hookups in the supplies room
You do it on purpose though
Cause it’s really cute how blushy and stuttery she gets.
Like. can barely form a sentence when she’s turned on.
It’s a miracle she can play her instrument at games,
she just tries not to look at you until she’s done.
OMG. You totally ask her to prom with a cheer.
In private, but it still counts
she loves it so much
and she starts rambling
shes the cutest tbh

Hey I just read your Robin x reader shift in 15 fix and it was really good! Could you write another one where the roles are reversed? Like Robin having gay panic over reader? Maybe not when they were in the same changing into work clothes but sometime just robin having gay panic about reader? Thanks :)
𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐭.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
‣ robin buckley x reader | stranger things masterlist | 488 words | more gay panic, more fluff, no use of y/n, both reader & robin are nervous haha
‣ this is a very cute idea! this ones short & sweet: premise is robin helps reader with dress shopping and panics when she sees reader >:) i hope you enjoy this and thank you for the compliment!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Come on out, I wanna see!”
It was ridiculous. It was daunting, expoing, vulnerability to the max. The hem of the dress pulled from your nervous fingertips, your body continuously rotating to capture the garment from all angles. The reflection on the wall matched your uncertain expression with a frown of her own.
Is it too short? Too loud? Too exposing? Do I actually like this or do I just think I should? Do I-,
The drag of your name interrupts the search.
 “C’mooon. I’m dying out here.”
Your lungs lose a puff of air through your nostrils. A final smooth over fabric washes away the confusion for a brief, blissful moment, and a shaky grin makes home at your lips. Opening the door, you don’t meet Robin’s eager eyes until you’re fully outside, hands interlocking in front of your hips shyly.
“...I don’t know.”
You really didn’t. Dresses weren’t the bane of your existence, but party shopping always manages to rile up your anxiety. To match the tone and pace of the event along with what others would be wearing, all of a sudden finding an outfit is the hardest thing in the world.
Robin’s crossed arms softened as well as her freckles. You notice her eyes roam your figure, making your fingers sweat and fidget. 
“What do you think?”
She blinked a few times. “Um. Yeah. I like it. Wha-What do you think? Like, do you like it?”
She watches you turn around to the full length mirror. 
Robin pinches her nose and clears her throat. Her shoulders roll over themselves. She nervously licks her lips. Was she sweating?
“...I think I like it, but I dunno, do you think it’s too much?”
Too much? Are you kidding?
“No..! I think it’s really nice.”
Her words couldn’t have tumbled out any faster. Smooth.
You face Robin once more, a calmness to you that wasn’t there before. 
“You think so?”
She nods awkwardly. “No yeah, for sure. It’s pretty,”
Pretty. You glance down at the dress to hide your smile, “I think I’ll get it then. It’s different.”
Robin falls to the wall the moment your dressing room clicks to a close. Her heart beats as if she’d competed in a race, trying to level out her pulse and breathing to quiet her nerves. You were a close friend, why does her heart beat this way? Sure she’d had crushes before, but you’d experienced all of them alongside her, even fed her words of advice. She almost wants to laugh at the irony. 
“Ok, I’m ready.”
You returned after a couple minutes in your regular clothing, a simple pair of high waisted jeans and a long sleeve, and a hanger doting on the dress. She curses her heart for quickening its pace once more. 
“So, I can pick you up tonight? The party starts at 7..”
“..Yeah, that’s fine.”
A palm meets her fiery cheek. God dammit.

7 Minutes in Hawkins (Robin's Vers.)
Tumblr media
Sipping at the drink she still held in her hand Y/N watched the bottle spin with a lazy eye. Wondering who'd have to endure 7 minutes with her in the bathroom. She glanced up at the others as they intently stared at the bottle too probably wondering if they were going to be the lucky winners. Amusing. The girl didn't need to look down when the sound of the bottle finally stopped to know who she landed on. It was written all over the faces of those around her; didn't help as heads began to turn towards the girl sitting cross-legged leaning up against the bed by Steve. A small smirk graced Y/N's features as she rose to her feet and stretched before walking over to Robin and holding her hand out.
"Alright. Looks like it's me and you girl. You ready?" she tilted her head with a reassuring smile on her face as Robin's dumbfounded expression looked up at her.
"Um, yeah. Yeah of course." her hand grabbed YN's as she was helped up and the girls headed out of the room; Y/N choosing to ignore the whispers they left behind as she closed the bedroom door in favor of leading herself and Robin to the bathroom down the hall.
When they finally made it to the bathroom Y/N closed the door behind her and chose to sit leaning against the sink cabinet while Robin sat on the floor with her back to the tub. The girls didn't say anything at first; Robin picking at her nails was a tall tale that she was nervous. Why Y/N could only guess. The two had become rather close since the Upside Down events transpired so Y/N could pick out the little habits the girl had. Smiling to herself the H/C-haired girl rested her head back against the wood with a wistful look on her face which got the attention of the other female.
"What's that look for?" Robin asked with an amused glint in her eyes.
"Oh, nothing at all. Just thinking. The last time we got stuck together we nearly died." Y/N laughed a little bit as she turned her head to look at the short-haired brunet. "Hey, speaking of. Remember when you promised yourself that if we got out of there alive that you'd finally go ask Tammy Thompson out? Whatever happened to that?" she asked raising a brow curiously.
Robin laughed a bit and looked down at her hands in her lap. "Yeah, I did promise that didn't I? Heh, well I um…I met someone else who stole my heart instead."
Now that caught Y/N's attention. She like Steve had been one of the very few who Robin had confronted about her sexuality about liking girls. Little did Robin know that Y/N swung both ways herself so she was very excited to hear one of her best female friends was the same in liking girls. So the mention of Robin finding someone else instead of Tammy Thompson; the girl who had captured Robin's attention for so many years through high school intrigued Y/N. She sat forward with wide eyes filled with excitement.
"Yeah? For real? Geez, I thought you'd never pass Tammy Thompson over for the world. Lemme guess, is it Vickie? I saw the little glances you guys have shared, and you worked at the volunteer meal station with her during the earthquake recovery period didn't you?" she said in a rush watching in delight as Robin's face lit up a little bit and a blush crept to her cheeks.
"Yeah…Vickie, she was in the band march with me. But…I wasn't talking about Vickie, Y/N." Robin stated in a softer tone making the other girl's brows furrow in confusion as a frown graced her features.
"Was there someone else I don't know about? Come on, I hadn't seen anyone else giving you googly eyes that I know of; you flirting behind my back with some girl I don't know about? How dare you Robs, I thought we were friends." Y/N joked reaching across the bathroom space to smack her foot playfully.
Robin chuckled and kicked at her hand playfully in return before her face fell slightly as she looked down at the floor again suddenly looking nervous. "No…she's someone who likes to make herself known publically very often; except maybe with her friends." she shrugged.
Y/N's head cocked seeing her friend's nervousness so she decided to scoot over to her so they were shoulder to shoulder leaning against the tub. She lightly shoved her shoulder with Robins with a smile soft on her features as she spoke in a quiet tone; the kind of tone she often used when Robin was getting anxious and she was right there to help reassure her.
"Okay. Well, tell me about her." she offered encouragingly.
Robin chuckled slightly before resting her head on her friend's shoulder as she sighed staring at the ceiling as she spoke. "Well, she's amazing. So freaking kind. But she's one of those people who when she enters the room just gravitate towards her because of her charisma. Her boldness sometimes borderlines being cocky especially when she gets into a sassy mood but it doesn't take away from the fact that she's one hell of a fighter. But, I've learned she's got a big heart that loves unconditionally, her loyalty and her love for her friends are so fierce that she'd run straight into a crowd of demobats just to save them." her voice was soft as she spoke; a slight quiver in her tone as her eyes misted over as she continued.
"She's always there for her kids and has no problem with smacking Steve over the head whenever he tries to take her spot as the mommy of the group but she also wouldn't hesitate to drag a half-dying Eddie back through the portal to save him. She doesn't know that every night I'd fight over myself to call her and tell her how I feel; to thank her for all the time that she'd been there for me…for accepting me for all my faults and mistakes. Never left me behind or made me feel unwelcomed even when I was such a cocky bitch sometimes."
Robin's hand slipped into Y/N's and she braved a look over to the teen only to see the glitter of a tear trail on her cheek. She was startled a bit at this and she shifted in her spot on the floor to peer into her face. "Omg Y/N are you okay? I'm sorry I didn't-"
Y/N leaned forward quickly and pressed her lips to Robin's. There was a difference between kissing a boy and kissing a girl. While generally there was some sort of aggression or alternative meaning behind it there was something a little more intimate when it came to kissing girls. Not that Y/N had much experience with that herself but she could definitely tell kissing Robin was like kissing the petals of a rose. The softness of her lips and the tentative press was something delicate and made Y/N feel fuzzy inside while the butterflies went haywire in her belly.
Pulling back a few inches to search Robin's face the girl's expression was awestruck and dumbfounded as her eyes peeked open slightly to look at Y/N. The girl giggled a bit and licked her lips as Robin exhaled a bit as she spoke.
"You taste like cherry…" she mumbled dreamily and Y/N laughed giddily as she pressed another kiss, this one shorter than the first to her lips.
"Good thing you like cherry." she teased making Robin blush.
The girls looked over at the door realizing it was open and not only was Dustin standing there but Eddie and Steve leaned over his shoulder staring wide-eyed. Eddie grinned cheekily before he held his hand out to Steve "I told you so. Pay up, Harrington."
disgruntled the brunet grumbled and dug into his pocket for his wallet only to slap a few bucks into the rocker's waiting hand. Dustin just stood there staring wide-eyed like he'd seen a naked girl for the first time before he suddenly looked over his shoulder at the other two before speaking while nodding his head as if what he was saying made perfect sense.
"Well, looks like we got two moms now." which made the two girls burst into uncontrollable laughter that followed the boys as they walked down the hallway back to the bedroom.

girls?
Tumblr media
i do not give permission for my fics to be posted claiming to be yours, translated, or posted on another platform without credit.
 requested by- @sublimecatgalaxy​
cw- not rly proof read, barely mentions of fighting (demo dog), enimies to lovers, uhhhhh i dont think anything else tbh. 
summary - robin is unsure if her enemy likes her back or not untill she makes a bold move.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“did you see her hair when the hair tie fell out?!” robin continued to daze to steve doing her eyeliner in the passenger seat of steves car.
“robin-”
she cut his speaking off and put her hand down from her face for a minute to look at steve. “now yes steve i now it wasent exactly the best time to find something attractive but..that was attractive!” she looked at him with a “duh!” face almost saying ‘i mean you like girls! you gotta admit, that was hot!’ without actually saying that. 
what robin was currently talking ab was when you were fighting a demo dog, swinging around so much your hair tie fell out of your hair, letting strands stick to the sweat on your face and some still loose from behind you. so yeah. not really the best moment to be crushing but oh well what can you do right? 
“i think i should ask her out.” robin bluntly started.
“are you sure you want to do that?” steve asked hoping robin would think about this but instead she immediately replied with a strong ‘yes’
“ok but listen i can think of atleast two reasons why you shouldnt do that!”
“oh reaally mr. lady puller? you want her that bad?” robin teased seriously and rolled her eyes.
once steve pulls into a spot in the school parking lot he turns in his seat to look at his (quite frankly only) friend and smacks her hand causing her to drop her eyeliner. 
“hey!” robin went to unnecessarily banter.
 “no robin ok listen! for one we dont even know if she likes woman and two she hates you!” steve yells mater of a factly. 
“yeah well one can be solved by me asking her out doofus. and two shell know i dont hate her once i ask her out. so really! asking her out will clear everything up!” robin states mater of a factly. 
not wanting to be late to class for once steve gives up.
                                                time skip bc i suck 
Tumblr media
“hi” robin cheekishly said to you.
“hi?” you said back in a undertone.
“uh- are- are you hurt to bad from yesterday?”
“no. not really... it just kinda sucks that i have to like- hide from everyone you know?”
“oh trust me i know.” as robin was talking she saw you open a mini cupcake.
“oh my god! y/n!” she randomly shouted.
“oh my god! robin!” you copy sarcastically. 
“i just saw you open the cupcake, duh, im right here of course im gonna see you open it but it reminded me that i made a cake yesterday its like red velvet with chocolate icing that i might add also made myself it took me so long and i was scared like so scared that i was goint to like explode something but guess what? i didnt!”
as she kept rambling you slowly smiled remembered something steve told you. 
“when robin likes someone she can not stop talking. like she starts talking non stop and really fast.”
“robin.” you cut her off
“yes?” she quickly replied.
“do you like me?” 
“yes. no! maybe? i dont now how do you feel about me?”
“how i feel about you is if you were to say you like me.. i wouldnt say i didnt like you too.”
“well then yeah. i do like you. y/n”
“i like you too robin.”
“i like your smile.”
one thing being said right after the other untill robin started ramling again. but this time you decided to cut her off. 
“will you be my girl friend?”
robin just stared at you in shock making random hand movements sometimes making some stuttering noises.
“robin?” you say in a sing songingly voice.
“uh- yes? yes! i will be your girlfriend!”
the moment was cut when steve came up behind robin.
“aha! yes! she likes you! thank you for not listening to me!”

fem!reader x Rebel Robin: Robin Buckley
Tumblr media
I've liked my best friend for two years now, never said it to her because she might think it's stupid.
It is stupid. Why was I waiting for something that's never going to happen?
Unless, I make it happen. But it's risky, and I couldn't take that risk knowing I could lose my best friend.
And I've known that she’s gay, she told me herself, told me all the things she liked about Tammy Thompson.
I admire Robin, the way she speaks her truth. The way she spoke about the things that she really like, every little thing that she despises, and things that makes her, her.
I like Robin.
But I don't think she feels the same way about me.
It's okay, I think I can totally disregard these feelings and just move on with my life. Hopefully with her by my side… even just as friends.
I sighed, flipping the pages of my book. I was bored, and thinking about shit and not reading the damn book.
Should I procrastinate on my homework? Nope. But would I? Totally.
Procrastination activated.
I tossed my book towards my nightstand, but failed as it falls over the floor. I rolled my eyes, not bothering on getting the book.
Almost passing out on the bed, I heard the phone ringing.
Jesus. This better be important.
"Hey, this is Y/N speaking" I said in a bored tone.
"Y/N!" Robin's voice was heard on the other line.
"Oh, hey Rob!" I said a little too attentively. My nose scrunched, realizing.
"Would you like to come with me to Europe?"
"¿Qué? ¿¿Perdón??"
"¿Puedes venir conmigo a Europa?"
"Jesus, Rob. I heard you the first time. But, what?! Fuckin' Europe?!"
"Y/N, please! I'm not really talking to Dash at the moment, same goes to Milton and Kate. You're the only one left!"
"Not just the second option, but the fourth?! Thanks, Rob. I feel special" I chuckled lightly, teasing her.
"Awe, you are special to me. Now, is that a yes that I hear?"
"Hahaha, yea- no."
"Aww, come on! It'll be fun I swearrrr, pretty pleaseeee, Y/N"
"For how many days?"
"Hopefully forever"
"Rob, I swear-"

39. "Hey, your feelings are not stupid."
Tumblr media
You sat anxiously at the Family Video counter. Waiting for Robins shift to be up. Picking at the flaking paint, you watched as your girlfriend leaned across the counter to assess another girl.
She was pretty. Perfectly clear skin, with not a frizzy piece of hair in sight, and flawless make up. 
Jacey was her name, you were pretty sure. 
Jacey passed a movie box over to Robin, twirling a strand of hair in her fingers and saying something you couldn't hear.
Your face scrunched up lightly. Negative thoughts swarming through your head as a sour expression took hold of your features.
Jacey bit her lip lightly, taking in every word Robin said to the very core and nodding along.
Huffing to yourself, you turned your attention elsewhere. Watching Steve fail to ask another bimbo on a date was much more amusing than watching your own lover get flirted with. The overused line,
"Maybe we can meet up sometime this week. If you're free that is," passing through his lips as a tiny smile grew at the corner of your lips. However it instantly dropped when the high pitched voice of Jacey shoved its way into your ears.
"Thanks so much, Robin. See you next week."
She gave a light wave wich Robin returned as she took her sickly sweetness and left. Robin turned to you, chuckling to herself.
"She's like a literal ball of rainbows. It makes me want to barf," she joked. When she didn't receive a reaction Robin took a closer look at your expression. Noting how your brows had that crease you always get when something was bothering you. *Hey what's up?" She asked in a softer tone. You peered at her through your slightly squinted eyes. Shaking your head you dismissed her question.
"It's nothing, it's stupid really." Robin moved closer to you. Grabbing your hand which was placed on the counter and taking it in hers.
"Hey, your feelings are not stupid," she stated. "If somethings making you upset you can talk to me about it. Whatever it is, I'll try to help." You bit your lip at she heartfelt words. Feeling guilty for the fact you even grew jealous in the first place.
"It's just…" you tried to find the right words as Robin waited patiently. "It's just Jacey seems a little too sweet when she's talking to you. With Steve she's nice sure, but when it comes to you she gets all batty eyed and does this little hair twirl thing. She obviously thinks about you differently in some way than other people for the amount of times I've seen her switch up when you come around," you rambled. "And she's just so pretty and has this flawless look to her and I'm not like that. She looks so much more better than I do and I know I look good but I just know she looks better. And I just can't stop myself from feeling jealous." Once you finished your speech you searched Robins features, uneasily. She squeezed you hand reassuringly.
"You have nothing to worry about, Y/n. Jacey is just a daily that comes in all the time. She's a film fanatic and has been coming here even before Steve and I got our jobs. I don't know if what your claiming is true or not about the eyes or whatever but it doesn't matter cause I have my eyes on you. Only you. And you, my girl, are the prettiest, most beautiful, amazing person I've met. So even if Jacey was interested, I am not," Robin assured you. A light smile grew on your features.
"You promise?" She held her pinky out.
"Ofcourse. I promise I'll always tell you the truth, but only if you promis to tell me when somethings bothering you. None of that "it's stupid' bullshit, 'kay?" You nodded, lacing your fingers through hers.
"I promise."
"I promise too." She kissed your cheek quickly and went back to helping people at the counter. Leaving you with a no longer sour expression, a smile taking it's place.

AMAS VERITAS:  ROBIN BUCKLEY X  BLACK READER
Summary: Happily out Hawkins College graduate Robin Buckley swears on the Goddess that 90′ is gonna be her year.  She’s finally come into her powers, is the manager of the only occult store in Hawkins, and might pluck up the courage to ask the witch of her dreams out. Everything was going to plan until her best friends ask the twosome for their help with a rather unique problem.  Chaos ensues in this sapphic practical magic au that no one asked for.
Trigger Warnings: Other than violence, blood, and gore, this fic will be fluffy and completely safe for work. 
Minors dni.
Chapter One: The Deathwatch Beetle.
Robin Buckley was eight years old when the deathwatch beetle took everything from her.
Though she was still so little, she knew the story of her family, of her magical heritage, and the curse tied to it too well.
 Once you heard the ticking of the deathwatch battle, the person you loved was doomed to die.
Her father was doomed to die.
Though it ticked for her father, she lost her mother that day too, the light in her mother’s eyes went wild as she ripped up the floorboards in search of the beetle before fading to a dull nothingness in the months that followed  until she, too heartbroken to live, left Robin alone in the world.
“In this house, we eat chocolate cake for breakfast and we never bother with silly little things like bedtimes or brushing our teeth.” Her aunts informed her with wicked grins, welcoming her into her new home. Though Robin had seen much sadness in her life, there was sweetness and magic in her life with the aunts and she began to feel normal again.
But with the sweetness came the sour as  like any young child she went in search of a friend her own age and couldn’t believe her luck when there was a whole group of children always lurking just outside her home.
“Hey, do you wanna play?” She asked them, hopefully. 
Her question was met by a sharp stone over the gate,  striking her in the head. 
“Witch, witch, you’re a witch! Witch, witch, you’re a bitch!” The children chanted at the crying Robin, tossing another stone to finish the work the other did not.
But the stone never made contact, having been caught by one Steve Harrington while Nancy Wheeler ripped a piece of her shirt and pressed it to Robin’s bleeding face. Though they were not the friends she thought she would acquire that day, they were the friends she needed the most.  Her home became their favorite place and once she convinced the aunts they were trustworthy, she shared her gifts of magic with them as well.
“ Great job my little Robin egg!”  Her aunt yelled as Robin successfully lit a candle with her magic, her friends clapping in awe.
A knock at the back door brought their celebration to a halt.
“Stay here Robin and show your friends your spells.” Robin’s aunts instructed but the moment the aunts left the room, the little witch and her friends scampered up the stairs for a better view of the guest.
“I can’t stop thinking about him, he has to leave his wife, he has to. Why the hell would I come all the way here if it wasn’t important so do you want my money or not?” The woman all but yelled in her aunts’ faces, stuffing money into their hands.  Within seconds the aunts returned to the woman with a dove in one hand and a sharp pin in the other.
“ I want him to want me so bad he can’t stand it.” The woman said desperately before pushing the pin into the dove’s heart, causing Nancy to gasp, turning her face away from the sight.
“Be careful what you wish for.”
“I hope I never fall in love, I hope I never fall in love, I hope I never fall in love. “ Robin chanted to herself, grabbing her friends by the hands.
“I can’t wait to fall in love.” Steve whispered as Robin tugged them into the greenhouse, grabbing a bowl and her own little book of spells before turning to the flowers growing in front of her.
“She will talk to the birds and they’ll speak back, when she cries, it will rain.” Robin said, plucking a petal and putting it in the bowl.
“What are you doing?” Nancy asked.
“Summoning a true love spell called amas veritas.” Robin explained, grabbing another petal.
“She can make a milkshake blindfolded, she’ll be marvelously kind, and her favorite shape will be the moon.” Robin finished, collecting all the flowers in the bowl.
“Didn’t you just say you never wanted to fall in love?” Steve asked, confused.
“ That’s the point, the girl I dreamed up doesn’t exist. If she doesn’t exist, I’ll never die of a broken heart.”
With her best friends by her side on the balcony, Robin concentrated on the spell, watching the petals lift into the air and scatter into the wind, complete.
 If she doesn’t exist, I’ll never die of a broken heart.

All of Me- Robin Buckley x yn Chapter 2
This is not proof read BTW!!!
The first thing I noticed about Robin when we got dinner was that she rambled a lot. Steve told me she does that when she gets nervous and I don't know why but that made me feel turned on. I'm getting ready to go to the family video to see both of them. I changed into low-rise jeans shorts and one of Steve's workout shirts and started to head towards the store. Once I got to the romance section to look at the selection, Steve walked up to me and kissed the top of my head. "Is that my shirt?" He asked.
"What makes you think it's yours" I responded with a smirk.
"Because it has my last name on the back" Robbin chuckled, watching the scene in front of her. I looked right at her and she turned red.
"What's so funny Robbie? It could've been your shirt on me but frankly, I don't have any yet." I winked at her as her blush darkened, as mine started to appear after, sounding like cringe. 
"No-nothing yn. Just thinking." At the sound of the door opening and the bell ringing Steve walked off as Robin and I busied ourselves but continuing continued
"What are you thinking about?" I asked the girl.
"You", she said in a small voice.
"What was that Rob, I can't hear you" I responded softly. Just wanting to double check what she said because I couldn't tell if I was dreaming or not anymore.
"I'm thinking about you," She responded as she leaned closer to me, with newly found confidence. Now it was my turn to blush like a fool. "Aw, cat got your tongue?" She laughed while walking away, leaving me in the aisle gawking at her.  She turned around and motioned for me to follow her. I started walking towards her until I heard my name getting called. I turned around to find Nancy right behind me. 
"hey yn, what are you doing later?" Nancy asked.
"I'm not sure, I think I'm hanging out with Robin. Why?" I asked.
"Oh, we could do something later than" she looked at Robin then back to me.
"What if you joined us? We haven't hung out since the incident at the mall"
"Sure! I'll let Jonathan know"
"Okay, I have to go tell Robin the plan, bye." I told her quickly, not waiting for a response.
˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚
"Robin" I whined. Looking at Steve to see him giving me a nod of approval before walking to the employees only section of the store. Out of the corner on my eye, I saw her sorting out the new shipment of movie. "Robin" I whined louder. She looked up at me with a smile and started walking towards me.
"what's wrong?" She asked as she stopped walking.
"I think I just invited Nancy to hang out with us tonight" I said with a shy smile. Robin frowned quickly before replacing it was another smile.
"I didn't know we were hanging out tonight."
"It was supposed to be a surprise, like a date" I said, "Like a friend date" I quickly finished, turning away from her. I side-eyed her and saw her smiling softly until she registered the last part, putting her face back into a frown. "Unless you want it to be more?" I muttered to myself seeing her smiling softly at me. 
"What did you say?" She asked.
"What?" I said, panicking, looking away from her as I felt blush coat my face. As I slowly turned to look back at her I noticed her a lot closer to me. I backed up a little bit before I hit the shelve, she caged me in. "Ro-Robin, What are you doing?" I said, looking down.
"I need you to speak up sweetheart, other wise I can't hear you". She grabs my chin forcing me to look at her. My stomach filled with butterflies, she starts to lean forwards, her lips hovering over mine.  As soon as I feel her lips connect to mine, Steve ran inside the room, looking down.
"Guys! Did you see that we have-", he lifted his head up, "OH MY GOD! WHAT WERE YOU TWO JUST DOING!!!". I blinked at him shocked, as Robin moves backwards. 
"Jeez Steve, we were just talking"

Tumblr media
you can't help yourself but watch her from the corner of your eye. her bangs are falling into her eyes, it is something that has caught your attention a lot lately: the way she always tries to get them out of her face and the way her hair is way too stubborn with her. there are a lot of things that have caught your attention lately, especially when it comes to robin buckley. you do those silly little things: catch yourself daydreaming about her in class or sketching her features on the side of your worksheet rather than working on them. hell, you've been counting her freckles the other day and only stopped because she had snapped you out of it herself. if you didn't know any better, you'd say you're hopelessly in love with her. except that can't be...right? because she's a woman and you can't be in love with a woman. you're not supposed to be in love with a woman. and yet this is what it is supposed to feel like, from what you've heard: the way your stomach twists in a way that tickles through your whole body whenever she looks at you or is already staring whenever you turn back during your shared shifts simply can't be anything other than that. regardless of what you've heard, the things you feel whenever she is around are allconsuming. you try to think of the things people on TV claim. you really try to get yourself together, to keep your eyes glued on a bunch of boys that walk by in the hallway just like all of your friends do. but all of this is forgotten the minute you lay eyes on her. love, you sometimes (in rare moments of clarity) find yourself thinking, isn't supposed to be what oppresses you or chains you down. it's supposed to be free and you've only ever felt free, truly free, around robin. maybe that's why you can't stop watching her now. summer has chosen to come early this year and the heat is already on the verge of being unbearable in late may. she's sitting on your bed, legs crossed and back bent over a book that's open on her leg. she's using a bright yellow marker to highlight important paragraphs, her lip tugged between her front teeth as she works in concentration.
yet again, you can't stop yourself from watching, admiring her from afar like you always do.
she is in a pair of shorts and a tank top she has taken from your closet. it's not her style, white and lacy, and yet it still looks great on her. usual, maybe, but breathtaking nonetheless, emphasizing the curves of her body that are normally hidden from the view underneath a layer of baggy clothing. you're grateful that you get to see her like this. "you're doing it again" her raspy voice snaps you back to reality and she speaks without even looking up from the text. "huh?" you raise a brow and tilt your head "what?" robin looks up from her book and drums the pen against her thigh a couple of times before she answers. "you're staring" she doesn't say it as if it was something that bothers her. she sounds so...sweet, maybe? "oh uhm-" your mind is racing with possible things to answer in return. you always have plenty to say, but right now, your normally busy and loud brain fails you when you need it the most. "i was just thinking" you mumble eventually. robin thinks about this for a second, shrugs, and focuses on her book again. "you do that a lot lately, don't you?" "there's a lot to think about" you say and she grins. "like what?" "dunno..." you shake your head and laugh softly "i guess my mind has been really full of thoughts lately" that catches robin's attention. she closes the book and turns so that she's facing you. her leg almost brushes yours. almost. you find yourself longing for that brief brush of skin, wishing she would lean in just a tiny bit more, just enough for that. "you know you can talk to me, right y/n?" as if she's been reading your mind, robin reaches out and puts a palm to your knee. your breath hitches in your throat and you fake a cough to cover it. you don't know what has gotten into you or why you choose to do what you do. but something in you finally gives you the strength to speak.
"robin have you ever...felt like, i don't know, genuinely, fundamentally different?" a smirk creeps up her cheeks. "all the time" she says.
"no but- i mean- not just in a way that you don't...i don't know..." you do know. what you really want to ask her is if she has ever felt the way you do every single day. if she ever wanted to kiss another woman, if she ever wanted to do more than just that too. "hey" she traces circles over your damp skin "is there something you want to talk about y/n?" you look up and her eyes meet yours. it almost seems like her pupils blow just a little bit wider at the sudden eye contact. you've never seen the ocean, have lived your whole life in this tiny town of hawkins, but you're certain that that's the colors of the waves that meet the shore.
perhaps another time you would've looked away and blushed. but robin is tilting her head sideways and has this sweet look on her entire face that has made you want to kiss her a hundred times before. only this time it is different. you know you're running out of time; it is only a matter of time until you will go separate ways, robin to europe and you to some god-forsaken college your parents have picked out for you. you know that if you don't do it now, you won't ever. and so you do it, against all odds. slowly, you reach out and place a strand of hair -one that's been bothering her all this time- behind her ear. her skin feels so soft under your touch that you can't help yourself but exhale slowly. just when you want to withdraw your hand, your touch already lingering for a bit too long, robin grabs your wrist and holds it there. "don't" she whispers. your palm meets her cheek and suddenly you're holding her face and she's leaning into your hand.
robin turns her face in your palm in a way that allows her lips to brush over it. your heartbeat picks up its pace when she starts kissing the heel of your hand, leaving you completely breathless. you watch her in complete awe and bite your lip at the sight in front of you. "robin..." you murmur and gently pull her a little bit closer, not enough for her to actually move forward, but just enough for her to feel your suggestive movement. she follows suit immediately and starts leaning in closer. closer and closer until her lips are almost touching yours. her breath meets your skin in short, hot puffs that send shivers down your spine. robin's eyes are fixated on your lips and you let all fear fall away. instead, you say "can i kiss you?". robin doesn't answer. instead, she grabs your face in a desperate manner and closes the little bit of distance that is left between you. her lips feel soft, that's the first thing you notice. and then your other senses start picking up on it too: she smells like summer; of the layer of sunscreen she must've applied in the morning and of the hawkins summer air that surrounds you. she tastes like chapstick and shared lemonade. robin leans back faster than you want her too, doesn't stay for more than one quick kiss. "h-holy shit y/n i'm- did you- i mean- was that okay?" you smile. "more than okay robin but...can we...can we do that again?" the excitement practically sparks in her eyes when you ask that but she nods immediately. "i would love nothing more" she scrambles up and bumps into you in the process of getting closer so that she's pressing you further into the pillows on your bed. you gasp but it turns into laughter against her lips when she pretends it never happens and puts her lips on yours again. she misses your lips though, kissing your front teeth due to your laughing. "stop laughing" she chuckles against your mouth "i'm trying to kiss you" "my bad" you grin and wrap your arms around her, caging her in like that "try again". this time she doesn't miss and you're not a giddy mess either. this time, she really kisses you. one arm remains around her shoulder while your other hand holds her cheek and robin kisses you deeper. you stay like this for a while. she tilts her head experimentally every now and then and moves your face with her index too. it's much more than an awkward peck; you can feel the length of her body on yours, your legs dangling together on your bed despite the heat, and just when you think it couldn't possibly get any better, robin parts her lips and licks along your bottom lip, waiting for you to let her in. you gasp, slightly surprised but thrilled to see where this might go. you gladly allow her to lick into your mouth, parting your lips like she has done before. it's a new sensation, one that neither of you is really used to. the velvet of her tongue against your own tickles past your lips and into your mouth. that's when you feel it for the very first time: the tingling sensation that starts somewhere in your lower belly and pools between your thighs. hungry for more, you arch your back up and try to press her further against you. robin groans and the noise has the exact same effect on you as your current makeout session.  "robin" you manage when she leans back to take a breath in.  her brows narrow and she looks down at you. "are you okay? is this okay? do you want to stop?"  "no!" you exclaim, maybe a bit too fast but robin just grins at that. "i mean- no. i just...touch me, please" "touch you?" she raises a brow "are you sure? i mean are you sure that you want this? i've never-"  you shake your head gently "i haven't either robin...but i am sure. i want this. i want you"  she gives you the sweetest smile and nods slowly.  "but, just so we're clear" she runs a hand through her hair, giving you time to admire just how pretty she looks like this: slightly golden in the sunlight and lips plump from the previous kisses. "we can stop anytime, okay?" 
"i won't want to stop" you whisper and she looks down at you in what looks like slight surprise but also amazement.  "well we don't have to" she shrugs and earns a giggle from you.  "just come here and kiss me already"  that she'll gladly do. she leans down again and kisses your lips. this time, she slips her tongue past your lips immediately, but it is soft and passionate nonetheless.  she kisses you slowly, just like you need it right now and her fingers link with yours so that she is holding both of your hands with her own while she is kissing you.  you smile against her and you can feel her returning the gesture, you don't even have to open your eyes to know.  "take off my clothes" you breathe into her open mouth.  so her fingers run up your body until they reach the collar of your shirt, where she starts fumbling with the buttons.  her kisses grow uncoordinated and you lean back.  "damn it" she curses, struggling to undo the very first button.  "hey" you reach out and wrap your fingers around her wrists "hey it's okay, let me help"  robin looks into your eyes as you help her and open the shirt for her. she sits up slowly, eyes filled with disbelief that this sight is really revealing to her.  she runs a hand through her hair once more and her jaw drops when you finish the final button.  "like what you see?" you chuckle and watch robin through heavy lashes. 
"god you could say that" she groans and shifts her weight back onto your thighs. 
you sit up against your many pillows and push the fabric off of your shoulder, leaving you in nothing but a soft, lacy bra.  you blush under her watchful eye and fight back to urge to hide from her. she must notice the way you look away from her because she gently brushes a finger over your cheek and down to your chin, lifting your gaze upon her.  "you're so beautiful, y/n" she murmurs. "so beautiful" 
you bring your own hands to her waist, squeezing the dip just above her hips slightly before you tug on the top that belongs to you.  "can i...?"  robin bites her lips and reaches out herself, pulls it over her head and then throws it over her shoulder carelessly.  she is wearing a black bra and her chest is covered in freckles. you've always wondered whether the thin layer of freckles would continue below the collar of each of her shirts but you would've never expected that you would actually get to see it.  you lean your head back and she gets the sign.  robin leans down and kisses you softly, her hands roaming your sides. you start exploring her body too, shily at first.  you move your palms over the swell of her breasts, just the ghost of a touch before you let them wander lower.  she shudders when you touch her there and you gasp softly in return. your hands run up her back again and stumble upon the clasp of her bra.  you look up from her chest and she is nodding already, giving you an answer to the unspoken questions.  you unclasp it slowly, making sure she has time to comprehend it, before you pull it off of her entirely.  and, god, she is beautiful.  your breath hitches in your throat and you shamelessly gape at her chest.  "like what you see?" robin grins, stealing the line you've used on her before.  "oh shut up robin, you're- you're gorgeous"  you keep looking at her and take your own bra off as well, getting you into an equal state of undressing.  she inhales sharply and strokes over your bare shoulders, her thumbs pressing into your skin softly.  "can i touch you?" when you nod, she brings both of her hands up to hold your breasts. you exhale shakily, feeling this new kind of touch on yourself.  this is all so new, so sweet.  a mix of shy touches and soft noises of approval.  you're so happy that you get this with robin. that she is the one out of all people that does this for you. with you.  her thumbs brush over your nipples and you arch your back forward involuntarily, a quiet moan drawn from your lips by her.  "oh you like that?"  your eyes fall shut and you nod, your lips forming a silent 'o'. she repeats the motion applying just the right amount of pressure that it feels even better than before.  "j-just like that robin" you moan. robin smiles, obviously pleased with the reaction she got out of you.  she leans forward again, her hips jerking against your leg as she moves.  "fuck-"  "what?" your eyes snap open, slightly alarmed. but robin's expression doesn't look like one to be alarmed about. her eyes have fallen shut and her mouth is agape.  that is when you realize that your thigh sits right against her center.  "oh" you breathe out and she opens a single eye to look at you.  she looks absolutely heavenly like this and, to test something, you flex the muscles in your thigh against her, eager to get a reaction out of her.  robin's lashes flutter and her lips part at the same time as her head drops back in pleasure.  "oh my god" she rasps "oh my god"  "does that- feel good?" you ask her and put both of your hands on her hips.  she nods to confirm it and gives her hips a couple of experimentally rolls forward, dragging them over the length of your leg. you watch in awe when the first actual moans fall from her lips. her normally low and raspy voice has this new, high-pitched tone to it that you've never heard before but from which you know that you need more of it.  after some time, robin leans her forehead down against yours. she brings a hand to the back of your head to keep you close to her and her open mouth is brushing over your own, parted lips. her hot breathing and the quiet, shy moans that occasionally erupt from her send the same tingling sensation down your body.  this is great already, better than you would've ever imagined, but you know you need more.  and robin does too.  "robin" you whisper and she stops her movements immediately.  "yeah?" she breathes "are you okay?"  you smile at how considerate she is with you, how attentive. 
"more than okay i just- i wanna see you"  "oh"  "yeah, oh" you bite your lip "is that okay?" robin grins and shifts backward, away from your legs so that she can get herself out of the shorts she's wearing.  you laugh softly when she struggles with the zipper and tries to kick them off her long legs.  eventually, she gets out of them and throws them down the bed to kneel in front of you.  "can we- uh- try something?" she asks, a shy blush on her cheeks.  when you nod, she takes your hand in hers and pulls you up so that you're both kneeling in front of each other.  you don't miss the way her eyes fall upon your chest, as if she still can't fully believe that all of this is really happening.  her hand is still locked with yours when she holds it against the valley between her breasts.  you gasp when you feel her heartbeat against your palm.  "i want you to touch me" she speaks carefully and tilts her head to search your eyes for any doubts. "and i want to touch you too"  you bite your lip at the thought of this and nod your head. "please" her fingers find the hem of your skirt and, while her eyes are still on yours, she pushes it down your legs so that it is pooling around your knees. she leaves it there before her fingers trace up your thighs slowly.  you involuntarily spread your legs wider for her, which robin can only smile about.  when her index reaches your clothed center, you watch her attentively: her mouth falls open when she feels the patch of arousal that has formed on your panties from her previous actions.  "fuck, you're wet" she gasps.  at those words, you feel yourself clenching around nothing and your facial expression because a reflection of robin's own: lips parting and eyes heavy with a kind of lust you've never felt before.  judging by the look on her face, she has felt it against her fingertips.  "touch me" she says and you do as you're told.  you try to copy robin's movements, a hand between her thighs when you cup her through the fabric.  that is when you get what she has meant by that: you can feel her wetness, damp through the underwear.  you can also feel her against each of your fingers that are firmly pressing against her. 
"y/n" robin moans softly and her head falls back slightly.  you feel her pushing your panties aside slowly and you do the exact same for her, removing the last bits of clothing out of the way that is separating you from touching her the way you desperately want to.  the moan she draws from your lips when she starts circling your clit is something you should probably feel embarrassed about, but robin's eyes are beaming at the noise.  she doesn't want you to hide, she wants to hear you.  robin tilts her head again, as if she's asking something from you, and then presses down against your clit slightly harder.  "god, robin" you moan and your head falls forward against her shoulder.  "it's okay" she whispers and runs her free hand into your hair "it's o- oh"  regardless of how turned on your are, you can't help but grin when she moans at the sudden touch of your index and middle finger on either side of her clit, rubbing over it how you would do it if you were touching yourself. it seems to be working for her too.  she starts picking up the pace of her own fingers in sync with your movements, rubbing gentle, clockwise circles around your clit.  your legs are shaking already and you keep your head against robin's shoulder, muffling the soft moans in her hair and neck.  you can feel how wet she is against your digits, proof that you really are making her feel good like this.  occasionally, you dip your fingers down lower, where all of her wetness if pooling. you consider taking it one step further, but you find yourself being too shy to ask. instead, you gather her slick on your fingers and draw it back up to her clit.  at one particular good stroke, robin reaches for your chin and moves your head away from its hiding spot so that you're looking at her.  she's taller than you, even like this, and you have to look up slightly.  she looks gorgeous, even more than she normally does: her eyelids are heavy, mouth agape and her chest is rising and falling rapidly.  "y/n..."  "hm?"  her fingers wander lower and you gasp.  "can...can i?"  you smile softly and copy her motions, a singular finger toying at her entrance. her eyes widen slightly and somewhat of a whine comes past her lips.  "please"  you're both staring into the other's eye when she pushes her middle finger into you at the same time as you do the same for her.  the moans that fall from your lips mix with hers, creating a sweet noise that echoes through the room. thank god you're home alone.  "oh fuck, robin...robin..." you babble, your hips jerking forward over and over to chase the delicious feeling "more".  robin withdraws her finger slowly, until only the very tip of it is still inside of your aching cunt and then pushes it right back inside you, adding a second one along.  "oh my god" you cry out. you've never made such a noise when you were touching yourself. this is s much better than anything you have ever felt.  robin's own walls seem to somehow tighten around your finger, which reminds you that you have that same effect on her.  you curl your middle finger forward slightly and robin's eyes roll back in her head.  "please" she whimpers "god- just like that- feels so so good fuck-"  you thrust into her a couple of times until you add a second finger as well.  robin, regardless of the fact that she is getting fucked this good by you, never stops the movements of her own fingers inside of your cunt.  her fingers are longer than yours, just slightly but enough for you to feel the difference; she is reaching depths that you were never able to reach on your own.  when she mirrors your motion and curls them up against that certain spot, you moan out her name loudly.  the thrusts alone feel incredible but when she begins hitting your g-spot, it takes things to a whole new level of pleasure. 
"k-kiss me" you mutter between moan and whimpers caused by her fingers.  robin does as you asked her to, pulls you in so that your chests are bumping together and smashes her mouth of yours.  the shyness from earlier is gone, replaced by want and lust for you.  soon enough, your tongues are moving together in sync, lips meeting over and over again until they feel almost sore. 
the combination of all of these things causes a knot to form in your lower abdomen. you know exactly what'll happen once this knot snaps and, truth be told, you can't wait to cum all over robin's fingers.  but you also know it'll take just the slightest bit more for you to actually cum.  "r-robin" you shudder when she leans back slightly. there's a string of saliva connecting your lips. part of you wants to be disgusted, but instead, it only turns you on. "can you- oh god, fuck-" it feels so good, you can hardly get the words out. "can you...rub my clit? please? i think- ah- i think i'm close"  she listens to everything with a half-curious, half-lustfilled expression and nods. robin doesn't stop with the wonders, that her fingers are working inside of you though. she uses her thumb to find your clit, all while she is pumping her index- and middle finger into you, and rubs it gently, just like you asked her to.  "holy shit- right there! right there!" you manage and your head falls back.  your breathing becomes high-pitched and rapid and every muscle in your body is focused on what she is doing, on moving against her to chase your orgasm.  robin seems to understand and starts rubbing your clit faster, adding pressure at the right points too.  with that and the fact that she pulls you in again to squeeze your breast, robin pushes you closer and closer to the edge.  you manage to find robin's clit with your thumb too, though it takes you slightly longer to do so but robin doesn't seem to mind, way too caught up in the way your digits curl up inside of her.  "robin...fuck i- oh-"  you can't even finish what you were gonna say, your whole body tenses up in pleasure and you feel your orgasm in each and every nerve.  you sob out a moan that dies in your throat when everything becomes hot and you see stars from the pleasure.  robin reaches her height shortly after and her body tenses up against yours, her eyes roll back and her fingers tighten in your skin.  both of your thighs shake around the other's hand and you cum around her fingers, coating them in your release.  when the wave of pleasure slowly fades, you open your eyes.  robin is still recovering herself, but she has come down enough to watch you. a smile is toying along her lips.  "holy shit" she breathes eventually.  "yeah" you say with a lighthearted laugh.  "did you- i mean- was that okay?" and you can hardly believe your own eyes but she blushes as if she hasn't just made you cum better and harder than ever.  "that was more than okay robin, fuck"  regardless of that fact, she sighs as if in relief.  "would you- would you mind if- i- would you like to go out...? sometime?"  despite your situation, you can't help yourself but laugh breathlessly.  "robin buckley" you exclaim "are you asking me out on a date while you're still inside of me?"  her eyes widen slightly, as if that part has already been forgotten and you laugh a little bit more.  once you have both fully recovered, you lay her down on your bed and put your head on her shoulder and she links your fingers together.  somehow, it is not odd at all. it's almost like it was always supposed to be like this.  "so" she says after some time.  "so" you repeat.  "about earlier...i would really, really like to take you out on a date"  you smile and tilt your head so you can look at her properly.  "i would really, really like that too"

September, 1979
You’d met Steve Harrington a week before your first day of seventh grade. You’d just moved to Hawkins from some small town in Pennsylvania - apparently your parents were big on the small town life - and you had been terrified.
You’d spent your entire life with the same group of kids and the same friends. You didn’t want to leave them, but you didn’t have any choice. And to a thirteen-year-old you, it felt like your parents were stabbing you in the back.
You still remember the tears that rolled down your cheeks as you helped your parents move the boxes holding your childhood items out of the U-Haul and into your brand new bedroom. Your mom did her best to cheer you up, “Look,” She spoke softly, tugging you into her side, “It’s so much bigger than your old room. Isn’t that nice?”
You just cried harder.
It was true, your dads new job in Hawkins was rolling in money like your family had never seen before, but you didn’t care about those kinds of things, you never had. You cared about the people and the memories you had to leave behind.
But, of course, none of that mattered at this point. You’d left. You still had your friends' numbers memorized, but how long would it be before it faded from your mind, and your number faded from theirs? The thought made you nauseous.
You spent that first night sniffling, surrounded by scattered cardboard boxes and various items. You didn’t even have your bed frame yet, the U-Haul had gotten delayed for whatever reason, so you were stuck with a mattress laid onto the dusty hardwood floor.
But, like there is with almost everything, there was a silver lining. Your books.
To most people, books are just that. Books. They’re boring, expensive, and seen as a way to waste time and nothing else. They don’t see them for what they really are.
To you (and your friends back home), a book was an escape. It was the perfect way to spend your time and the perfect hobby, and right now, it was the only thing keeping you from breaking down.
Your current book was about four sisters who all were navigating through different paths in life, and all finding different ways to deal with the world around them. It was a classic, and you saw a bit of yourself in all of the sisters. (The painter a little more than the others in all honesty.)
It was simple yet complex in all the right places and definitely one of your favorite books this year. You continue to read it through glassy eyes, doing your best to keep your mind off of your current situation, when suddenly there’s a bang at your window.
You jump up, arms instinctively hugging the open book to your chest. There was another one, and then another, and then another, before you finally swallow harshly and work up the courage to approach the glass. You placed your book gently onto the hardwood next to you, the spine up as it laid flat, and softly padded towards the noise.
Goosebumps rose onto your skin as you did, your short clad legs attempting to get used to the cold air around you now that you’d left the safety of your blankets.
At first, you couldn’t make anything out except for the house next to you and the starry night sky, but then you saw the cause of the noise. A rock. Someone was throwing rocks at your window.
You furrowed your brows and looked towards the ground, and low-and-behold some boy was standing outside your window. He had dark brown hair, wore a green sweatshirt with what you’re assuming is a school logo on it, and gray shorts.
Hesitantly, you unlocked your window and hauled it up, but not before another rock hurled its way straight at your neck. It hit you smack in the middle of your throat, causing you to choke for a moment and grab at the area. “Ow!”
The boy winced and immediately dropped the rest of the rocks in his hand, (why did he have so many rocks? At least ten fell out of his hand!) “Sorry!” He yelled out.
You glared at him, hand rubbing soothingly at your now sore throat, “Who are you?”
“Uh, Steve - Steve Harrington. I live next door.” He pointed at the house next to you, “You see that window?” He gestured to the one directly across from your own, “That’s my room.”
You nodded, eyes narrowing into thin slits, “Alright, Steve. If your room is right across from mine, why didn’t you just stay up there instead of going through the trouble of pelting rocks at me?”
Steve stills for a moment, and you can physically see the gears turning in his head. “Um,” He stumbles for a moment, “Give me one second.” You can hear him practically sprinting back into his house, his sandals smacking against the ground as he goes, and you can’t help but snicker.
You’d be lying if you said that you didn’t find the twenty seconds you’d spent with the boy so far to be the most enjoyable of this whole week, but it had. It was almost strange to you - to be talking to a boy. All of your friends back home had been girls, and you mostly stayed away from the boys. To you, they felt like unknown territory. What did they like to talk about? What did they like to do for fun? Did they have any interest in a girl like you? Would they ever have any interest in a girl like you?
All of your friends had had a boy like them at some point in time, some of them had already had boyfriends! But not you. No, never you.
Boys didn’t look at you. Steve was the first to ever even show any interest in you at all. It made your stomach flutter.
Soon enough, the light across from you flicks on and you watch curiously as Steve stumbles across piles of clothes and other knick-knacks to reach you. He struggles with the window for a second, before it suddenly pops open with a slight screech.
“Hey,” He smiled, breaths coming out a bit heavy.
Your lips twitched upwards at the corners, “Welcome back.” You teased.
Steve slapped his arms at his sides and let his head dip to the side, his eyes rolling a bit as he did, “I’m sure you missed me.”
You furrowed your brows, “You were gone for, like, five seconds. And I don’t even know you. Why would I miss someone I don’t know?”
“Uh, because I'm super buff and attractive?”
A snort slipped from you at that comment, “Yeah, okay. Keep telling’ yourself that.”
“I will.”
There’s a short pause between the two of you, and you nibble on your bottom lip. You’d never been able to banter so easily with many other people before. It made you excited.
“Soooo, where are you from?” Steve asks, effectively breaking the silence.
You sighed and leaned your elbows against the sill, your chin falling atop your hands, “Pennsylvania.” You answered dryly.
Steve nodded and copied your actions so that you were face to face, “I’ve never been there. I mean, my dad has for his work, but I never have personally.” He rambles.
You click your tongue, “That’s cool.”
Steve nods slowly, “Why’d you guys move?”
“Are you interrogating me?”
“You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to.”
You quickly shake your head, “No, I do. I just wasn’t expecting so many questions,” you chuckled, nervously tucking a stray piece if hair behind your ear, “Um, my dad got a new job here. Some bank job or something, I’m not really sure.”
Steve perked up, “My dad works at the bank too! Maybe they work together.”
You shrugged, “Maybe.”
Steve licked his lips and glanced down at the ground below you. The both of you were only on the second story, but the grass felt so much farther away then it really was. “You don’t seem very excited about it.”
You bit your lip, eyes darting across his tanned skin. The summer had done wonders on him, but you were sure the upcoming school year would fade it away. “Because I’m not.”
“Why?”
You gave him a look, “Would you wanna move away from all your friends?”
Steve paused to think for a moment. To him, leaving Tommy and Carol wouldn’t be the worst idea in the world. He could start over and ditch the reputation he’d built, but he knew that wasn’t the answer you were looking for, so instead he said, “No, I guess not.”
You gestured with your hand and huffed out a breath, “My point exactly.”
Steve shrugged, “Well, Hawkins isn’t all bad. It’s not like there’s monsters hiding out around here or something.” He joked.
You could help but laugh along with him. There was something about the way he always had something positive to say to make you feel better, or maybe that was just how you were observing him in the last ten minutes. “You’re funny, you know that?”
Steve scoffed out a laugh, standing back and crossing his arms over his chest in an attempt to look nonchalant, “Duh, of course I know that.”
You snickered, “Don't let it get to your head.”
“Too late. I can already feel my skull growing to accommodate.”
Your body shook as you laughed, moving your face under your hands to hide yourself. Steve mentally fist pumped at making you laugh like that, and he prayed he’d hear it again, and soon.
Once your laughter died down and all was left was silence, Steve asked, “Are you going to Hawkins Middle for school? Or did your parents enroll you in that Catholic place down the street?”
You shrugged, “Well, I’ve never heard of the Catholic place down the street, so I’m gonna say Hawkins Middle.”
Steve grinned, “Great! I go there, too. You can totally sit with me at lunch and stuff.”
“I’d be grateful to be allowed in your presence.” You tease, pretending to bow your head.
Steve just smirked, “I’d expect nothing less.”
You and Steve spent practically all night talking. He’d gone down to his kitchen at some point for a snack and came back upstairs with two bowls of chips. After many failed attempts, some including one of you nearly falling to your death, you were able to grab the chip bowl meant for you.
Once both of you were full and content, it was already nearing midnight. If your parents saw you up and talking to Steve, you’d be in so much trouble.
“I think I’d better head to bed.” You mumbled, a sad smile on your face.
Steve nodded and wiped his palms on his pants, “Yeah, me too.”
You didn’t want this to be a one time thing in all honesty. You really, really enjoyed talking to Steve, and you hoped he really, really enjoyed talking to you as well.
You opened your mouth to tell him so, but decided against it, so all that fell from your lips was a simple, “Goodnight, Steve.”
He gave you a sappy smile, “Goodnight…” His eyebrows furrowed and he blinked excessively, “Wait, you never told me your name.”
He was right. You hadn’t realized it, but you never thought to tell Steve your name.
“It’s Y/N.”
Steve just chuckled and placed his hands above his head onto the window, “Goodnight, Y/N.”
❣︎
That following week had been filled with late night conversations between you and Steve. They’d always start the same - you’d be laying in your bed reading a book (you’d gotten your bed frame finally), Steve would throw something at your window, and then you’d talk and share a bowl of chips.
In all honesty, this tradition had become your rock. It felt like the one thing that was really yours in this new town.
That last night before the first day of school, Steve had seemed troubled, his brows crinkled and he wasn’t talking as much as he normally did.
“Whats wrong?” You asked hesitantly. You weren’t sure if you and Steve were at the point in your relationship where you could be open with each other. In all honesty, you were expecting him to say something like oh, i’m fine or nothing, why? But he didn’t, instead he said, “I’m worried about tomorrow.”
You furrowed your brows. Steve had been practically shouting from the rooftops how excited he was for you to meet all of his friends just two days before. “Why?” You asked, “I thought you were excited?”
Steve bit his lip, “I was.” He sighed, “But I went to this pool party at a friends house today and it just.. it reminded me of some stuff I’d forgotten about.” Well, that explained his fresh tan.
You weren’t sure how to reply to him. You didn’t want to push him or make him feel pressured to say anything, but you were also curious. “Was it.. was it bad?”
Steve sighed and ran a hand through his hair, “Honestly? Um, kind of.” He groaned, eyes shut as he tried to find the words, “Tommy and Carol… they’re not the best people. And I know that I shouldn’t be friends with them but,” he paused and rubbed the bridge of his nose. You wanted to reach out and comfort him. “I feel like I owe them, you know? I was a real lonely kid and they were the first people who ever made an attempt to get to know me, but now…” He trailed off, his forehead hitting the windowsill as he dipped his head.
You bit your lip, unsure of what to say. You didn’t know Tommy or Carol, the only things you knew about them were what Steve had said, which were only good things.
You crossed your knees, left heel popped as you nibbled on your lower lip in thought. If Steve really felt this bad about whatever they were doing, then the right thing would be to distance from them, but you didn’t know his situation. To Steve, he felt as if he owed them something, even though friendship isn’t something that should have to be repaid.
You sucked in a breath, socked feet tapping rapidly at the hardwood below you, “It’s okay to grow out of friendships, you know?” You mumbled. “It’s happened to me, and we both parted ways happily without some big, dramatic fallout. If you really feel that way about them, maybe it’s time you do the same.”
Steve was silent for a few moments, and you couldn’t help but feel badly for him. “Thanks Y/N, but…” He took a deep breath and shook his head lightly, “I just don’t think that’s something I can do. I’ll see you tomorrow, alright?”
You were a little shocked when he ended the conversation so suddenly, and were worried you’d said something to bother him. “I’m sorry if I made you uncomfortable.”
He chuckled softly, messy brown hair falling over his eyes, “Don't worry, It’s not you. But I've really gotta get to bed, okay?”
Unconvinced, you just nod. “Alright… I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Steve crashes into his bed with a muffled groan, pink lips pulled down into a frown. In all of reality, he’d gone to this party and boasted to everyone about his new neighbor. And instead of being happy and excited to have a new person in the group, Tommy and Carol had grimaced at the thought.
“What’s her name again?” She asked, legs crossed as she sat on the purple lawn chair.
“Y/N.”
Tommy snickered and leaned over to whisper something in Carol's ear, and she got that knowing smirk on her face. The one that practically dripped venom. “Oh, you little friend can totally hang out with us.” She said, tone heavy with sarcasm, “She seems just peachy!”
Steve’s stomach immediately twisted, his intuition practically screaming at him to realize it’s a setup, and to do everything in his power to keep you away from it.
“Come on, guys,” He grumbled, wiping a hand over his face as water dripped from his hair onto the concrete below him, “will you please just be nice?”
Carol crossed her arms over her chest and pursed her lips, “What makes you think we’re not gonna be nice to her, Stevie?”
His nose scrunched at the nickname, anytime Carol called him that he knew he’d struck a nerve. “I’m not trying to say you won’t be, it’s just… I really like her and I don’t want her to stop talking to me if you guys do something.”
Carol snorted, her red hair falling over her shoulder as she did, “You like her? You don’t even know her!”
Steve’s cheeks flush a bright pink as he sinks further into his chair. Yes, it was true that he’d grown the tiniest crush on you during your late night talks, but he couldn’t help it! You were so kind and soft-spoken, and you always knew how to make him laugh. And the fact that you were one of the prettiest girls he’d ever seen was just the icing on the cake. How could he not fall the smallest bit in love with you?
That next morning you’d been practically shaking in the car. Your mom assured you over and over that it’d be a good day and you’d make lots of new friends, but it wasn’t that you were nervous about.
Sure, school without friends sucked but you could live just fine without them. No, you were worried about Steve. He’d been worried about something his friends had said, and you had a sinking feeling it had something to do with you.
As soon as you stepped foot onto campus you were immediately looking for Steve. You’d seen him leave his house a couple minutes before you did, so you assumed he was already here, you just weren’t sure where.
You swallowed as you walked through the crowded halls. There were groups of girls reuniting after summer vacations spent in Europe, guys with tan skin and even brighter eyes, but no Steve.
You get through your whole first period class with zero sign of the brunette boy, and it’s not until you’re halfway to your second do you catch a glimpse of him. His back is turned to you, but you could recognize that laugh anywhere.
Shyly, you walk up to him. You can see he’s with a freckled boy and red headed girl, who you assume are his friends, Tommy and Carol.
Carol notices you first, and she eyes you up and down with precision. She smacks on her gum before she nudges Tommy and gestures her head in your direction.
The both of them stare at you for so long that by the time you even make it to Steve’s side he’s already turning to face you.
Surprise flashes on his face, but it’s soon replaced with happiness, and then something you can’t quite read. The smile on his face is strained as he says, “Y/N! Hey!”
You give him a small wave back, nerves crawling up your spine at the hungry look Carols giving you. Like you’re her next meal.
“Oh my gosh!” She practically squeals, grabbing your arm and forcing you closer to her. You nearly stumble to the ground from the force but Steve grabs your shoulder and steadies you. “Steve told us so much about you!” She leered, well manicured hands hugging you close to her body.
You pushed away from her gently, uncomfortable with all of the attention, “Oh. That’s nice.” You glance at Steve to try and get a read from him, but his face is blank. He meets your gaze apologetically and crosses his arms over his chest, “Leave her alone, Carol.” He mutters.
Tommy flashes his teeth with a hateful grin, “Oh, come on,” He snickers, “we just wanna know your girlfriend better.”
“She’s not my girlfriend!” Steve defends, eyebrows furrowed in frustration.
Carol rolls her eyes at him and then turns her attention back to you, “Look, why don’t you eat lunch with us today, hm?” She asks, batting her lashes.
Your eyes dart to Steve. You don’t want to invade his space (even though he’d said you could eat lunch with him days ago), and you can tell he’s clearly uncomfortable with the way Tommy and Carol are acting, so you attempt to say, “Oh, I don’t think-”
Carol cuts you off, “We’ll see you there, okay?” She draws out the syllables in the okay, linking her arm with Tommy’s and then walking away without allowing you to answer.
You and Steve watch them go, and you begin to bite your nails, a nervous habit you’d been trying to break. “I didn’t mean to-” You begin, hoping Steve isn’t too angry with you including yourself like this, but he just shakes his head with a sigh. “It’s.. fine. It’s not like Carol gave you much choice.” He attempts to joke, and you let out an awkward laugh.
Steve eyes you, clearly unsure of how to release the tension surrounding the both of you, but the late bell does it for you.
You barely bid him a short goodbye before you’re reaching for the map in your back pocket and leaving Steve behind to stand awkwardly in the hallway alone.
He watches you leave, stomach flipping at whatever he knows Carol must have planned for lunch.
Unlike Tommy, Carol was calculated. Tommy would be mean on the spot, he didn’t really plan out any of the things he did, they more so just happened. But Carol, she’d plan them for weeks.
Once, she’d pretended to be friends with Jacey Collins for nearly the entire fifth grade year just so she could embarrass her at her birthday party. Steve doesn’t know what Carol did, but whatever it was, it was bad enough to make Jacey move schools.
So, yeah, he was a little nervous for lunch.
He was even more nervous every time he’d catch Tommy and Carol giggling with each other, both refusing to tell Steve what the hell they were talking about, and instead promising he’d find out soon enough.
By fourth period, their last period before lunch, Steve had had enough. Carol was whispering something in Tommy’s ear, casually glancing at Steve as she did. Finally fed up, steve smacked his hand on the desk and said, “Carol, whatever you're planning, just quit it, okay? Y/N’s a nice girl, and she doesn’t deserve whatever twisted joke you and numb nuts are planning.” He smacked Tommy upside the head, causing the boy to rub at the spot gently.
Carol glowered, her eyes thin slants, “If you really have that much of an issue with it, why don’t you go sit with your little girlfriend in the bathroom or something. I’m sure she’d love that.” She giggled with a suggestive wiggle of her brows.
Tommy cackled, “I could totally see her and Steve getting it on in the bathroom.”
Steve scrunched his nose, “Gross, man!” He shoved Tommy in his chair, and then focused his attention back onto Carol, “This is the only time I’ve ever asked you to do basically anything for me. So please, just this once, can you just be nice?”
Carols lips thinned into a line as she swung her feet back in forth in her chair, back resting against the plastic seat. “If I leave your little,” she pretended to gag, “girlfriend alone, what’re you gonna do for me?”
Steve should’ve known that Carol Perkins does not do anything for anyone unless there’s something in it for her. He shrugged, “Anything you want.”
A cheshire grin immediately spread onto her glossy lips, “Anything?”
“Yep,” Steve huffed with annoyance, “anything.”
She shared a look with Tommy, the both of them almost looked to be communicating with just their eyes. “Okay,” She suddenly slapped her palms onto her lap, “We want full 24/7 access to your pool for the rest of the summer.”
Steve immediately groaned and ran a hand through his hair. He couldn’t use the excuse that his parents would get mad at him because his parents were never home anyway and they knew that. That’s why she asked him, because she knew they could get away with practically anything there.
He’s tempted to say no, to refuse and let Carol have her way with you, but then he thinks about the soft smile you get on your face everytime he opens his window, and he knows there’s no way he could do that to you.
“Fine.”
“Really?”
“Mhm.” He already knows this is a bad idea, but he reminds himself who he’s doing it for. “The pool is completely yours.”
Carol squeals happily, immediately turning to Tommy to discuss what Steve assumes are the things they’ll do together, but he drowns them out.
All he knows is that you won’t have to be subjected to Carol’s cruelty, and that makes the whole thing worth it.
But, he should’ve known Carol would find a loophole.
By the time lunch came the knot that had formed in Steve’s stomach had disappeared, and he was actually excited to see you.
Tommy spotted you first, a yellow tray in your hand as your eyes darted across the room. “God, she looks like a puppy.” He snickered in Steve’s ear.
Steve shook him off, muttering a quiet shut up under his breath as he made himself known to you.
“Y/N! Hey.” You’d never looked so relieved to see him as you do now, your furrowed brows immediately relaxing. “Hi.” you murmured.
“Uh, I’ll take you to our table.”
You gazed down to his empty hands, “Aren’t you gonna get lunch?”
Steve couldn’t help but laugh at your words, “Oh, no. We never eat lunch here.” He gestured with his head to the rest of his friends, who were already sitting and were also without lunch.
Your gaze dropped down to your own tray, and you suddenly felt insecure. At your old school, you and your friends always ate lunch, you didn’t even know it was a thing not to. “Should I…” You trailed off, gesturing to the trash can. Steve immediately shook his head, “Oh, no! I mean if you’re hungry then you should eat.”
You nodded and squared your shoulders. Steve was right, no one was gonna care if you were eating lunch or not. It was just your insecurities speaking.
You gave him a genuine smile and let him lead you to the table, you sat next to him obviously, on the outside of everyone else.
Carol flashed a grin at you, “I’m so happy you decided to come! For a second there we thought you might run off to the bathrooms with the freaks!” She giggled. The comment made your stomach churn, but you were sure it was just some harmless joke, right? You forced a laugh, “Oh, no. I was just confused in the whole lunch situation.” You said, pointing to the empty spaces around them.
Carol hummed, pretending to be intrigued, “Oh, we never eat lunch here. It makes you gain, like, twenty pounds in just a day!” All of Carol's friends giggled, and that nervous feeling in your stomach suddenly came back tenfold.
“Oh,” You swallowed, “I didn’t know that..”
“Of course you didn’t, silly!” She eyed you up and down, “Actually, do you want me to throw that away for you? It’s probably a good thing you don’t eat that you wouldn’t want to..” She trailed off with a wince.
Tommy let out a loud laugh, “Yeah, no offense, but how often did you eat your other schools lunch? It kind of shows.”
“Tommy!” Steve shouted suddenly, “What the hell is wrong with you?”
To you, your body had never really been an insecurity for you. But Carol and Tommy’s comments suddenly have you folding your arms over your stomach in an attempt to hide.
Tommy pursues his lips, “It’s just the truth!”
Steve just scoffed and stood roughly from his spot, “Come on, Y/N.” You immediately followed him, doing your best to avoid Carol's smirk as she watched you walk away.
Steve led you into the empty hallway, hands clenched at his sides in anger. “God, I am so sorry. I should’ve known they’d say some dumb shit like that-”
“Hey, hey,” You shushed him, “It’s fine. You didn’t know. We did the right thing by leaving.”
The guilt still didn’t leave Steve though, because deep down he did know something was going to happen. He knew Carol wouldn’t stop just because Steve offered her something. And the thing about her was she was so subtle about it that it seems like she doesn’t know what she’s saying is mean, when in all actuality, she does.
“No, still, I shouldn’t have let you sit there.”
You sighed, “Look, maybe I just..” You swallowed, “Why don’t we just keep our friendship out of school, okay? I’ll find some friends on my own.”
Steve’s lips parted slightly, eyebrows crinkling together in confusion, “So I'm just supposed to ignore you?”
You shook your head, a smile tugging at your lips, “I’m not saying that. We just won’t go out of our way to see each other.”
Steve sucked in a breath. Doing that made it seem like he was ashamed to be friends with you, which was honestly anything from the truth. If anything, he was ashamed to be friends with them.
“I don’t want you to think…”
“I won’t think anything,” You reassured, “This was my idea anyway. And besides, this way we can keep everything more private.”
Steve took a breath and let himself soak in the information. You would still be friends, just not at school. Easy.
“Okay,” He said, “I’ll see you tonight then.”
June, 1986
Present Day
Getting a summer job at the bookstore was honestly one of the best things you think you could’ve done. After graduation, and the unfortunate mall fire at Starcourt which destroyed your job at The Gap, you’d been out of work and living with your parents.
For most people, nineteen is a normal age to be living with your parents, especially when you’re putting yourself through school like you are because you’re parents refuse to pay because you chose a local college instead of the prestigious one they’d picked out for you across the country.
Your parents were disappointed with your choices and you knew that, but you couldn’t bear the thought of leaving just yet. There were so many relationships you weren’t ready to end and so many things left unsaid with.. certain people.
Like Robin for example. You’d both met a couple weeks after your seventh grade year started. She was a year younger than you were, but she was still the closest friend you had outside of, well, yeah. Steve.
Yours and Steve’s relationship had grown much more complex as the years went on, and long story short, you didn’t talk to him anymore. It hurt too much to do so.
But, Bookish was almost like an escape for you. Most of the people that came in were either kids with their mothers, usually just beginning to fall in love with books just as you did, or they were elderly people who'd fallen in love with it way before you’d even been born.
Robin working there with you only made it better. She used to work at Scoops Ahoy in the mall, along with he-who-shall-not-be-named, but once it burned down she’d been left without a job just as you had.
She’d been over at your house during spring break, the both of you watching Footloose. You on your back, head hanging off of the edge of your bed. Robin rested her back against the headboard, shoveling another handful of popcorn into her mouth. “You know,” Her words came out muffled, so she paused to let herself chew the rest of her food. “That new bookshop or whatever opened a couple weeks ago. Maybe we should apply there.”
You readjusted so you were leaning back into your elbows, a slight raise of your brow. “Bookish? I just went there the other day.”
Robin nodded and popped another piece of popcorn in her mouth, “Did you see if they were hiring?”
You scrunch your nose, trying to remember. During your visit, you’d been too preoccupied trying to find the best book to purchase and hadn’t really looked. “I have no idea. But, if they're new, they probably have to be.”
Robin agrees with you with a nod of her head, and the both of you decide to finish out the movie and then drive down. Robin unfortunately doesn’t have a license, so that meant you were basically forced to drive her everywhere. Well, either you or Steve.
Robin used to hate Steve, even while you were friends with him. She was one of the only people who was aware of your friendship and what it had turned into, and she constantly reprimanded you for getting involved with a guy like that.
But, once they started working together at Starcourt, her view completely changed, but by that time you and Steve were already avoiding each other like the plague.
You glanced at the window, wondering if maybe Steve was on the other side. You hadn’t opened that window or even the blinds for over a year, too afraid of what you might end up seeing.
“Hey, you ready?” Robin asks, throwing her jacket on and leaning against your doorframe. You swallow, eyes lingering on the blinds before you turn to her with a smile. “Let’s go.”
And that was that. You’d both gotten hired nearly on the spot by the sweet old lady who ran the store.
Bookish was one of those places that made you feel like you were entering a different time. The floor was dark oak wood and the walls were linen, and it was lined with rows and rows of books. Some were neatly displayed while others just stacked messily.
It was June in Indiana, which meant all the electric fans were going and the AC was cranked as high as it could go, but the warmth still seeped into the building.
“It’s so hot!” Robin groaned, leaning over the counter dramatically, “I’m gonna melt.”
You snorted as you continued to organize the books in the fiction section, “It’s not that bad.”
Robin smacked her lips, “You say that now, and then you’ll turn and see i’ve become a puddle on the floor.”
You placed a hand on your heart in false sympathy, eyes closing as you imagined the situation, “That would be so, so completely horrible.” You sniffled, pretending to be sympathetic, then whipped your head to her with a teasing glint in your eye, “But maybe I'd finally be able to get some work done without that constant whining in my ear!”
She scoffed, pretending to be offended. “This is not whining! It’s complaining. There’s a difference.”
You grinned and pushed the cart holding the books back behind the counter, “Doesn’t seem like it to me.”
She just rolls her eyes, slumping back into the counter with her head resting in her hand, “Whatever…” She trails off, eyes wondering across the building, and then she gasps suddenly, “Oh, shit.”
You turn to look at her, eyebrows crinkled, “What's wrong-” She cuts you off by basically pushing you to the wall, her hand covering your eyes.
“What the hell, Robin!” You huff, pushing on her arm in an attempt to release yourself form her hold.
“I am so, so sorry.”
“What are you talking about-” You’re finally able to push her away from you, her arm falling to her side as you blink in an attempt to get used to the lighting again. “Seriously, what is wrong with you?” You question, wiping your hands on your dress.
Robin bites her lip and stares right past you towards the front door, her eyes slightly wide.
You like to think that after so many years of knowing Robin you’ve become an expert on her body language, and right now it was practically screaming one thing. Panic.
Hesitantly, you allow yourself to look towards the front where Robin was staring. Honestly, based off of the look on her face you were expecting a monster or maybe even Tammy Thompson to be standing there, but the reality is much worse.
“What the hell is he doing here?”
Steve Harrington is casually conversing with Mrs. Beck, the old lady who runs the bookstore, like he’s known her for years. He’s got that soft smile on his face he always got when something made him happy, and his hair has grown a little since the last time you saw him. His face looks freshly shaven, and he’s wearing that god-awful bright yellow sweater you’d told him to burn years ago.
“I can explain.” Robin stammers, hands coming up to tug at her shirt the way she always does when she’s nervous.
You scrunch your nose and force yourself to turn away from him. It should’ve been a no-brainer that Steve being here had something to do with her, because you don’t think you’ve ever seen the boy pick up a book willingly his entire life.
You point an accusing finger at her, “What did you do?”
Robin swallows, jaw opening and closing as she tries to find the words to defend herself. Finally, she lets out a loud huff and smacks her hands against her sides, “He needed a job! Keith fired him over at Family Video because he was apparently “stealing all the hot ladies from him”, and I told him to come here without thinking! I promise I immediately regretted it and I tried to talk him out of it but it was like he pulled the application out of thin air!”
You rub your temples in an attempt to calm your budding nerves. You didn’t want to be angry with Robin because she didn’t deserve your anger for offering her friend a job, no matter what your history with said friend is, but you couldn’t help the growing irritation in the pit of your stomach. “Why didn’t you at least tell me? Then I could’ve at least prepared myself!”
Robin stutters over her words, hands gesturing wildly, “Because I knew you’d be mad!”
“I’m not mad!”
“Mad about what?”
You’re almost surprised Steve has the audacity to join the conversation so casually, as if you were still the best of friends who talked every night.
You swallow and squeeze your hands into fists at your sides until your knuckles are a pure shade of white. Robin just stares at him with parted lips, eyebrows shot up in surprise. “Uh,” She swallows, allowing herself to steal a glance at you, who has since paled significantly, “Nothing.”
Steve lets out a huh, his eyes lingering on you, who hasn’t had the courage to turn around and actually look at him, instead leaving him to stare at your back. Steve doesn’t mind though, a little bit of you is more than enough for him.
The three of you are at a stand-still, everyone waiting for one of you to make the first move, for someone to speak, to shout, scream, anything.
But you can’t move because this is the first time you’ve heard his voice in over a year. It's still smooth as butter and music to your ears. It’s the first time you’ve smelt his cologne, pine and oak but still with a hint of the ocean. It’s the first time you’ve been near him, and it hurts.
It hurts because you can’t help but wonder about how different your life would be if Steve hadn’t screwed everything up, if he hadn’t said what he said or did what he did.
The back of your throat begins to ache with an onslaught of tears fighting to be let out, but you swallow them down. You refuse to shed any more tears over him.
“What’re you doing here, Steve?” Even his name hurts to say.
“Robin, uh, she told me Mrs. Beck was hiring and, well, I needed a job..”
You finally whip around and face him, your hair following you as you do and harshly slapping against your face, but you ignore it. “That’s the only reason? I find that a little hard to believe.” You mumble the last part, eyes narrowing as you stare at him. Steve hadn’t realized how much he missed your glare.
“Yeah, it is. Why do you wanna know?” He asks with a suggestive taunt, almost as if he’s daring you to take the bait. You know how his mind works though, so you don’t fall for it.
“I just didn’t know if you finally decided you wanted to learn how to read s’all.”
Steve can’t help the smirk that grows on his face. “I was hoping you’d teach me, actually.”
You scoff, a shiver running up your spine in disgust. Of course he’d say some stupid shit like that, he always knew how to get on your nerves. “In your dreams, Harrington.”
Steve grinned, a snarky remark begging to spill from his lips, but you don’t let him. Instead, you flip him off and nearly jog into the back room, your legs shaking as you go.
Robin can’t help but feel concerned as she watches you leave, seeds of guilt already beginning to grow in her stomach. She furrowed her eyebrows and smacked Steve on the back of the head, causing him to let out a sharp yelp. “What was that for?” He grumbled, hand reaching back to nurse the spot.
“What was that for?” Robin mocked, nostrils flared as she pointed an accusing finger at Steve, “You said you were gonna try and win her back! Newsflash buddy, but making her even more angry than she already is isn’t gonna do that!”
“I know that!” Steve defends, “I know what i’m doing, okay? Just trust me.”
Robin was really beginning to regret this.
❣︎
March, 1981
By the time you and Steve started your freshman year of highschool you’d gotten involved in completely different social circles. Steve stayed with all of his popular friends, and was rapidly climbing the highschool food chain. You on the other hand, well, you were doing the opposite.
You weren’t exactly a weirdo per se, but you definitely weren’t cool enough to be associated with any of the popular kids, and that was completely fine with you.
“Sweetheart, I’m sorry, but there is no universe where Queen is better than The Beatles. It’s just not a thing!”
“You’re just uneducated! Freddy Mercury is a musical genius!” You argue, pelting a potato chip across your window. It nearly hits him, but loses speed and falls to the grass instead.
He chuckles and leans back in his desk chair. You and Steve had both long since decided to just leave your chairs next to your windows, it only made sense since you spent hours talking each night. “I’m not saying he isn’t, but you’re forgetting about Beatlemania. Last I checked, there was never a thing like that for Queen.”
You groan and cross your arms over your chest, eyes flickering to the Queen vinyls on your shelves. “Just admit you’re wrong so we can move on, please.”
Steve is stubborn. He knows that on all levels, The Beatles are better than Queen. But you have that pleading look on your face, the one with the puppy dog eyes. The one Steve has never been able to say no to. He sighs and throws his head back, a lopsided grin on his face as he admits, “Fine, Queen is better.”
You smile gleefully and cross your legs, “Was that so hard?”
No, it wasn’t. If you looked at Steve like that and asked him to move the world, he’d do so without breaking a sweat.
“Yes, actually. It made me nauseous.”
“You’re such a baby.”
You’d be lying if you said you hadn’t spent these last two years falling in love with Steve Harrington. How could you not when he made it so effortless? Honestly, you didn’t even notice it was happening until one day you looked at him and suddenly it was like the stars aligned in front of you.
Sometimes, you’d catch yourself staring at him for too long at school and would have to physically rip yourself away and back to whatever lesson the teacher was babbling about or whatever rant your friend was on. He was just so… distracting. Especially now that he’d joined the swim team and had begun to fill out his clothes.
But, you could never have Steve. There was too much on the line. The most obvious being your friendship, and that was something you just couldn’t risk losing. It meant too much to you. But, sometimes you still let your mind wonder. You’d let yourself dream of kisses on cheeks, of love confessions done under covers and milkshakes shared over dinner.
You’d always have to stop though, because thinking about it for too long just made you sad.
The obvious fact that nobody outside of your family and Robin knew of your friendship with the boy was also a big problem with this fantasy. You knew how Steve’s friends were. If he began dating you secretly and suddenly stopped being interested in typical, well, boy things, it’d bring up questions that Steve couldn’t answer.
So the general consensus here was that Steve Harrington was off limits for the foreseeable future.
“What're you thinking about in that big brain of yours?” He asks softly, pushing a stray strand of hair out of his face.
You swallow, embarrassed to have been caught but also unsure of how to approach the question. “Nothing. Just.. thinking about this project for school.”
“What is it? Maybe I can help.”
You snorted. Steve was a lot of things - beautiful, funny, athletic - but helpful with anything school related? Absolutely not. “I doubt that.”
“No, seriously,” He straightened in his chair a bit, hitting the backrest comfortably, “hit me.”
You chuckled awkwardly, eyes avoidant. In all actuality, there wasn’t any project, it was just an excuse you made up on the spot. But, maybe you could play this in your favor.
“Well, we read this short story about this girl who’s in love with a guy she can never have, and no matter how many solutions she comes up with in her mind he will always be off-limits from her. We’re supposed to come up with a solution for her to show that, like, nothing is impossible, I guess…” You trailed off at the end, rubbing at your arm uncomfortably.
Steve made a strange noise in the back of his throat, crossing his arms over his chest as his eyebrows knitted together. You could practically see the gears turning in his head, and sucked in your bottom lip nervously. Would he know you were lying?
“That’s a weird project.” He mumbles, completely unaware of your wide eyes. “Uh, yeah, it is.” You stammered, the confused look on Steve’s face made you realize how stupid this was, and you immediately go to discard the entire thing, “Just forget it, It was stupid anyway-”
“I’d tell her to just go for it.”
Your mouth goes dry, “What?”
“I mean, what’s the worst that could happen? He says no? And what if that guy really does like her back, what then? She’ll never know if she doesn’t tell him!”
Your stomach practically explodes in nerves, and you're unsure of what to say. Steve’s looking at you expectantly, but all you can focus on is that one short phrase. She’ll never know if she doesn’t tell him.
It was true, but was it really that simple? No - it’s not. The risks are too great, and sure, Steve makes it seem so easy, but it’s not. Nothing is easy when it comes to your feelings for him.
The one thing you were almost certain of was that Steve doesn’t love you like you love him. It was obvious in the constant stares at prettier girls, with fuller figures and whitened smiles. It was obvious in the kisses he’d share with them behind bleachers, hidden away from prying eyes. It was obvious in the way he’d gush to you about his latest crush, of how beautiful they were and how in love he was. And the funny thing? They were always the opposite of you. More outspoken and confident - not afraid to show a little skin. Something you were envious of.
“But.. What if she does know? And she can never tell him because she knows he’ll reject her and then everything between them will never be the same again?”
Steve is a little surprised by your question, and he begins to feel nervous under your piercing gaze. Why were you asking him this? Did you.. did you know? There was no way you did - he always made sure to keep his feelings hidden away anytime he was with you. He’d fight down the blush, push away the longing - all of it. In all honesty, he was starting to question if this was for a project in the first place.
At first, your project had hit a little close to home, but he didn’t let himself overthink it. But now, his mind was practically swarming with uncharted waters he’d always ignored.
But, still, he amuses the question. “Maybe their relationship will change into the way she wants. She can’t assume the guy doesn’t like her just because he doesn’t show it. Maybe it’s there, and he’s just really good at hiding it.”
You no longer enjoyed this conversation. Now it just hurts - because Steve doesn’t even know what he’s doing to you. He’s giving you hope, and that’s a dangerous thing to have. It was something you couldn’t let yourself have.
You needed to get away from this conversation and honestly just let it die out. You needed to breathe in the fresh air, finally let yourself take a full breath instead of this constricted, shallow breathing you were currently experiencing.
“Do you wanna go for a bike ride?”
Steve snorts, shoulders rising and falling as he does. “Now? It’s almost midnight and we have school tomorrow -”
“I’ll go by myself then.” You’re already slipping in your tennis shoes before Steve can even argue, throwing a jacket on to protect yourself from the cold night.
Steve nearly jumps out of his chair, brown eyes amused and a smile tugging on his lips. Usually he was the one forcing you to sneak out with him, so this was a nice change of pace.
He meets you outside, watching as you wheel your light blue bike away from the side of the house and to the driveway.
“Where are we going?” He asks, throwing a leg over his own bike and gazing at the soft smile on your face.
“Anywhere.”
That's how you both find yourselves now, wide smiles on your faces as you ride through the quiet town. You were used to the quietness of Hawkins, but not like it is now. There’s not a soul in sight, the only thing illuminating the road in front of you being the yellow street lights.
Eventually, you find a nice hilltop to stop at, and the both of you practically collapse onto the grass.
You’re panting slightly from the ride, but you don’t even care. All you can focus on is the starry sky, thousands of different constellations making themselves known to you.
Sometimes, you think Steve is like a constellation. Beautiful to look at and widely studied, but untouchable. Only a select few got to go up and be with the stars, and you weren’t one of them.
“It’s beautiful out here,” You whisper, hands intertwining on your stomach comfortably.
Steve gazes at the side of your face from where he lays next to you, hands behind his head. “Yeah,” He breathes, forcing his gaze away from you and to the stars above, “It really is.”
You’re not sure how long you’re out there with him, you just know by the time you get back home you’re exhausted.
You and Steve barely spoke a word to each other that whole time, only occasionally pointing out a star that shined brighter than the others or made a funny shape.
But, as you collapse onto your bed and drift into a dreamless sleep there’s one thing you’re sure of.
You are in love with Steve Harrington, and you think you always will be.
❣︎
June, 1986
You’ve chosen to completely ignore Steve, even when he attempts to talk to you. You’ll simply stick your nose farther into your book and walk away from him.
You’ll give him some grace though, because he never takes your rejection harshly. He simply watches you walk away with a sigh and turns to talk to Robin about something.
Robin watches you turn tail and practically run away from Steve for what feels like the thousandth time this week, and she’s had enough. “Steve.”
He turns to look at her lazily, hip resting against the counter top and arms crossed against his chest. He’d attempted to ask you what you were reading today because he noticed it was different than the one he’d seen you with for the past couple of days, but as soon as you saw him approach you shot him an icy glare and walked to the other side of the store. He could see you now, sitting in the window nook comfortably.
“I’m not sure if you’re noticed, but you’re not really making any progress here.” Robin scolds in a hushed voice. She wants you to be happy, and for the past year you’ve been anything but. She’s had to comfort you through too many crying sessions, had to stay over because you couldn’t be alone way too many times, and had to watch you close those blinds for the last time and never open them again.
Robin remembers how you were before Steve went and messed everything up, and she selfishly wants that back. Don’t get her wrong, she still loves you more than life itself, but she knows what you’re like when you’re happy, and right now this is not it.
Steve crosses his arms over his chest, “I know that, Robin. But she won’t talk to me.”
She scoffs, “Can you blame her? You broke her heart! Personally, I wouldn’t talk to you either after something like that.”
Steve stares at the floor in front of him, shifting his position so his back is leaning against the counter instead of his hip.
Steve hates thinking about how he treated you during your senior year. Actually, he hates to think about how he treated you nearly all of highschool. You didn’t deserve it, and you were an angel for putting up with it. But, sometimes angels get pushed too hard.
He still remembers the tears that stained your cheeks as you begged him to explain himself, remembers the hoarseness in your voice as you screamed at him to leave. But, he thinks the thing that hurt the most was watching you close those blinds for the last time.
That was when he knew it was over. Anytime you’d argued in the past you’d always kept the blinds open, it was almost like a peace offering, like your silent way of telling him you guys would be okay.
“I don’t…” He swallows, “I don’t know how to fix it.”
Robin can’t help but feel sympathetic for him. She understands why you refuse to talk to him, hell, she’d probably do the same thing. But, she also knows Steve and she understands how much he regrets his decisions back then. She knows how heavily he was influenced by the people around him and the constant pressure to be King Steve.
“You need to show her you’ve changed, not just tell her. I could tell you I had a boyfriend but once you saw me kissing a girl you’d know I wasn’t being truthful.”
Steve can’t help the snort that slips from him at her comparison. But, he knows she’s right. What good is it to sit here and preach to you that he’s a changed man if he doesn’t do anything to prove it to you?
You on the other hand couldn’t even focus on your book. You’d reread the same page twenty times in the last five minutes, and you still had no idea what was going on! Steve was too distracting - and not just because you hated him.
You didn’t want to admit it to yourself, but sometime in the last year you’d forgotten just how attractive Steve was. The moles that dotted his neck like they’d been crafted by Aphrodite herself, and the way his eyes glimmered a honey brown whenever the sun shined on them. His lips, so pink and sculpted to fit the frame of his face. And don’t even mention his muscles or you might just faint on the spot.
You steal a glance towards him from the corner of your eye, watching as he talks with Robin about something you can’t make out. His head is hung low though, so you can assume it’s nothing good. Maybe she was lecturing him for bothering you, and if you were lucky he’d finally listen.
But, unfortunately luck never seemed to be on your side, and he’s approaching you faster than you can run away. “Y/N.” He has you cornered, your back against the window as you glare daggers at him. What the hell did Robin say?
You refuse to answer, instead choosing to go back to pretending to read your book. Steve doesn’t say anything, he just places his hands on his hips and stares down at you.
You're stubborn though, so you refuse to look at him, no matter how badly you might want to. Steve, seemingly getting the hint, just lets out a loud sigh and says, “I’m going to get food from Bennys, do you want anything?”
Fuck. You loved Bennys. But, you didn’t want Steve to let you saying yes get to his head, so you just let out a harsh no.
“You haven’t eaten since you got here four hours ago, that’s not healthy.”
“I’m not hungry.” You respond dryly. Glancing up at him through your lashes. His lips are pursed and he’s got that look on his face he always gets when he’s annoyed. He shrugs, “Suit yourself.” And then leaves without another word.
For a moment, you’re almost shocked. You’d expected him to fight with you more about it, but you’re not mad that he didn’t.
You practically shoot up and beeline for Robin, who’s already gazing at you like she’s been prepared for this. “God, I hate him!” You groan, rubbing the bridge of your nose.
Robin snorts, hopping onto the countertop and picking at her nails, “Because he offered to buy you food?”
You shoot her a glare, “Because he’s pretending nothing happened between us.”
Robin chews on her bottom lip, glancing up from her chipped nails to a fuming you. “I think he’s just trying to be nice.”
“Since when were you his biggest defender? You were begging me to leave him not even two years ago!”
Robin winces at the memory. It was true, she used to absolutely loathe Steve with everything in her, but that was before and this was now. People change - and Steve Harrington was a prime example of that.
She stays silent, knowing there’s nothing she can say at this current moment that’ll make you feel better.
You force yourself to take a deep breath and lay your forehead onto the counter top, elbows wrapping around your head as you do. You’ve been arguing with yourself on where you stand with Robin lately. On one hand, she’d deliberately offered the one man you couldn’t bear to see a job at the one place you’d felt safe from him without even asking you first, and essentially ruined it for you forever. On the other, she was just a girl helping someone she loved get a job somewhere that wasn’t a shit hole like most of the places in town.
It just wasn’t fair that that place has to be here.
You sigh, squeezing your eyes shut, “I just need a second by myself. I’ll come back out if things get too busy.”
Robin just nodded, eyes glued to the floor as you walked past her and into the employee area.
Robin knows you have every right to be mad at her right now, but if risking your friendship was what it took for you to be happy, she’d do it everyday.
By the time Steve gets back the sun has already started to sink below the clouds, and there was only an hour left of your shift.
You were still in the back room, eyes puffy and red with the remnants of tears. It embarrassed you to admit, but you’d let a few tears and sniffles escape you. You were just so frustrated with your situation.
Steve walks behind the counter nonchalantly, large hands reaching into the white plastic bag and pulling out three styrofoam boxes.
Robin furrows her brows at this, only expecting two. “What’s the third one for?”
Steve’s silent for a moment, a ghost of a smile on his lips. Did you really think he was gonna let you go hungry? He knows you - knows you love Bennys like you love breathing. It’s the only reason he got it.
“Y/N.”
“But didn’t she-”
He shoots her a look that shuts her up as she realizes what he did. Her eyes crinkle as she smiles, and opens her box. “Do you want me to take it to her?”
Steve thinks for a moment about what you would want. Logically, he knows you would want Robin to bring it to you, but what would you have wanted before he screwed everything up?
“I’ve got it.”
He grabs your box in one hand and his own in the other, taking a deep breath before he pushes the door open with his hip. You're sitting there, arms crossed over your chest and nails between your teeth. A nervous habit of yours.
You look up, clearly expecting Robin, but your gaze immediately hardens once you realize it’s him. You push your chair out from under you harshly, it screeches across the floor as you do. You grab your jacket that hangs on the back of it and go to walk past him, but he blocks your path. “I brought you something to eat.”
“I said I wasn’t hungry.” You attempt to push past him, but he doesn’t let you. Instead, he gives you that knowing, motherly look of his. The same one he used on Dustin Henderson when he babysat him junior and senior year. “You haven’t eaten since noon, and,” He glances at his watch, “it’s almost seven, Y/N. Pretend it’s not from me, I don’t care, just please eat.”
You're at a standstill for a moment, the both of you staring at each other. You know Steve’s right, but you hate it. It makes you feel nauseous that he knows you so well.
Finally, after much hesitation, you finally sit back down in your chair. Your arms are still crossed and you’re refusing to look at him, but Steve can breathe easy knowing he’s finally getting at least something from you.
He sits across from you and slowly slides your box over to you, which you open lazily.
You wanted to yell at him to go - to leave you alone to eat in peace - but it almost felt nice to feel his presence again. If you focused on it long enough, you could almost pretend it was still that blissful time before senior year. When everything had been perfect.
Steve watches as you open the box and inspect the food carefully. He can tell by the way your eyes widen slightly that you’re surprised by what you see.
“Is this..” You trail off, heart constricting in your chest.
He nods, “You really thought I wouldn’t remember what you like? Please, give me a little credit.” He teases.
You never even knew he had it memorized.
A ghost of a smile plays on your lips, head flooding with memories of late winter nights spent at Bennys with Steve.
You allow yourself to glance up at him, cheeks flushing when you find he’s already staring at you. As soon as his eyes meet yours he smiles, a genuine, crinkle-at-the-corner-of-the-eye smile.
You eat in silence for the rest of your shift, but Steve doesn’t care. Being with you is more than enough.

November, 1981
Sophomore year is difficult for you.
Your grandma died just three days before Halloween, and it hit you hard. Steve was with you nearly all the time, not even saying anything, just holding you as you sobbed.
He never quite knew what to say to make you feel better because none of his own family was in his life. As far as was concerned, you were the closest thing he had to that.
Today marked a full week since your grandma passed, and you’d just gotten home from the funeral. He could see you now through his window, laying on your back unmoving in your bed, black dress still heavy on your body.
You’re not even crying, just staring at the ceiling. You’d always heard that grief presented itself in thousands of different ways, but you’d never been subjected to it yourself until now.
Memories of your grandmother and her infectious smile played on repeat in your mind, and sometimes if you focused hard enough, you could pretend she hadn’t died.
Your eyes squeezed shut as you did so, replaying a memory of her from your eleventh birthday party. You’d been crying for some reason you can’t even remember, and she’d stumbled upon you on the floor of your bathroom.
“Oh, Hunny, what happened?” She cooed, closing the door and sliding down next to you. She winced as she did, her knees popping the whole way down, but she didn’t complain. She just threw an arm over your shoulders and pulled you into her.
“I-I’m scared.” You whimpered, hugging your knees to your chest.
“Of what?”
You sniffled and looked into her loving eyes, “You’ll think it’s silly.”
She chuckled, forehead wrinkling with the movement, “No, I won’t.”
You swallowed, scratching at your arm nervously. “Are you sure?”
“I’m your grandma, I’d never laugh at you.”
You swallowed, letting your forehead hit your knees solemnly, “I don’t wanna grow up.” You admitted.
She didn’t say anything for a moment, which made you feel even worse. Getting older was natural and there was nothing you could do to stop it, but it’d hit you that you were growing out of your childhood.
You’d never be as innocent as you once had been, and at some point in your life you’ll never be mommy’s little girl again. And you hated that you just had to accept that.
Your grandma sighed, fingers drawing shapes onto your arm, “I know it’s scary growing up,” She murmured into your ear, “but it’s also good for us. We learn more as we grow, and we get to experience so many new things. Take me and your grandpa for example, we met when we were twenty five. If I'd never grown up, I never would have met him and fallen in love.”
The mention of your grandfather put a smile on your face. He was a sweet old man with a dashing mustache and a love for your grandma so strong you could feel it without even knowing him.
“I guess you’re right.” You sighed, laying your head against her side. She always knew how to make you feel better, it was like her special talent.
That’s why her death hurt so much, because you’d been talking to her less and less the older you got. It wasn’t something you did purposely, but with the move and all the new things that were happening in your life calling her had just never been at the top of your list. Now you wish it had.
You don’t even hear the knock in your door, you only notice Steve’s there when he’s scooting into bed next to you. You welcome him calmly, automatically falling into his open arms. He strokes your back comfortingly, leaving a soft kiss on your hairline. “How’re you feeling?”
You make a noise in the back of your throat, a mix between a whimper and a groan that shatters Steve’s heart. He hates seeing you hurt like this.
“That bad, huh?” He mumbles, squeezing you closer against him.
You choke out a sigh, “I just wish I would’ve called her. I had every chance too and I never did. What kind of- of granddaughter does that?” Your eyes are brimming with tears again, a sob tearing from your throat as you press your face closer into Steve’s neck. He smells like home.
He doesn’t mind that you’re soaking through his white shirt, in fact he barely even notices. “C’mon, Sweetheart. There was no way you could’ve known, and blaming yourself isn’t going to make you feel any better.”
“I-I just… I just wish I would’ve been better.” You hiccuped.
Steve immediately shakes his head, “No, no,” He stands and takes your hand, gently forcing you to your feet, “You’ve gotta get outta here, no way staying in this room all day is healthy for you.”
You sniffle and glance around your bedroom. Its usual warmth feels cold and empty.
“Where would we go?” You ask, gazing at Steve as he wipes your tears with his thumbs. “Anywhere.”
That's how you ended up at Bennys. Steve had recently gotten his license so you no longer had to bike everywhere.
The cloudy sky combined with the glaring overhead lights must wash you out, but Steve’s not sure you’ve ever looked prettier. The black dress compliments you perfectly, and call him selfish, but he thinks the glossiness in your eyes accentuates them so nicely.
You solemnly drink a sprite, biting on the straw occasionally and leaving a permanent indent in the plastic.
You’d heard of Bennys, apparently it was a Hawkins staple, but you’d never been yourself before now. For how popular it apparently was, it's not very busy, just a few stragglers.
You can see the chief of police, Jim Hopper, and a few of his cop buddies in one corner, a couple in a booth across from them, and two old fishermen at the bar.
“I’ve never been here before,” You murmur, watching as Steve’s head lifts from the menu to look up at you. “I’ve only been once with Tommy and Carol,” He says their names with so much disgust it nearly surprises you, “and it was really good.”
You knew Steve wasn’t the biggest fan of his friends, which was still something you found pretty weird. Why be friends with them if you couldn’t stand them? But you also understood Steve’s situation. He had affirmed his status as King Steve at the beginning of the school year, when he’d fought Mitch Mikealson and won. Ever since then he’d gotten more cautious with being seen with you.
And, yeah, it hurts sometimes to see him pretend you didn’t exist. Before, he’d still give you the occasional wave or smile, but now he didn’t even spare you a glance. But, you’d always remind yourself it was fine, because only you got to have the real him. The soft Steve, who’s boyish charm and honeynut eyes made you melt everyday.
You let out a soft huh, glancing over the menu before finally deciding on something. A plain cheeseburger with a side of cheesy fries. How American of you.
After you’ve given the waitress your orders, you both sit in a constricting silence. Steve isn’t sure of what to say to you right now or even how to approach the obvious elephant in the room, but you could hardly even focus on that.
If there’s one thing your grandma's death has taught you, it’s that you can’t let time escape you. You’d pushed off calling your grandma for months, and then suddenly you couldn’t anymore. What happens if you put off telling Steve how you feel for him, and then suddenly you no longer could? Would you feel regret like you do now?
You think you’ve known Steve long enough now to decipher how he’d react. A soft rejection, but without a loss of friendship. You think things would continue how they normally do - maybe a bit awkwardly at first but, still, as they normally do.
Then you consider the other option, which you thought to be the less likely one. On the off chance Steve does like you back, then your entire relationship would change. Would he kiss you in front of his friends? Scream from the rooftops that you were his and he was yours? Or would he hide you away, protect his reputation from your influence?
You weren’t sure.
“What’s going on in that big brain of yours?”
You smile softly at the phrase, glancing up at him through your lashes. He's leaning onto his elbows on the counter, cheeks squished between his hands. You think he looks innocent like this, and a glimpse of his seventh grade self flashes in his eyes, a time before King Steve even existed.
“Just… thinking.” You murmur, playing with your fingers in your lap.
Steve frowns, assuming you’re talking about your grandma, and he says, “I’m really sorry, Y/N. You know I'll be here for you every step of the way, right?”
You warm at his words, stomach twisting in knots. “I know,” You breathe, “we’re best friends. We have to be there for each other.”
Steve's heart constricts at the phrase. Best friends. Was that what he’d always be to you? He wants to be so much more - he wants to sweep you off your feet, show you just how much he loves you. If real love is something teenagers can’t experience, then he’s not sure he ever wants to, because whatever it is he’s feeling for you right now is practically engulfing him whole.
“Yeah,” He smiles weakly, “Best friends.”
Your eyebrows knit at the solemn look on his face, watching as he swishes the straw in his drink with his fingertip.
“Steve-” You begin, but the waitress is approaching you with your food before you can finish. Steve’s grateful for the interruption, not sure if he’s ready to answer whatever it was you were going to ask.
He distracts himself with his food, and you do the same. You're not sure why, but something about the way Steve said best friend made you feel uneasy. Did he not think you guys were? Or did he… did he want something else?
You blink the thought away, forcing yourself not to think of it.
But… what if…
You think of your grandma, how the regret of not calling her filled your entire body until you could barely breathe. Did you want that to happen with Steve? No, you didn’t. So there was only one solution.
The moon is up by the time you get in the car, and you allow Steve to drive you to your spot.
The hilltop where you first rode your bikes to last year had become almost like a comfort place for the both of you. You went anytime either of you were upset, and you always sat in the same positions. You, with your hands laid comfortably on your stomach and him with his hands behind his head. It was basically a routine at this point.
But, tonight, it’d be different. Because you were either about to ruin your friendship with Steve forever, or start something you’d never be able to turn away from.
You’re both silent, but while Steve seems peaceful, you’re anything but. Your mind is running wild with what-ifs, and you anxiously chew on your bottom lip. Just do it, you think, just do it.
“Steve?” You mumble, placing your hands behind your back and sitting up. Steve follows your lead, an eyebrow raised as he does. “Yeah?”
You squeeze your eyes shut and pull your knees into your chest, dress riding up until its hem is at the middle of your knees. “If I.. If I tell you something, you promise you won’t judge me? And- and nothing will happen to our friendship?”
He laughs nervously, “What’re you talking about?”
Just do it, you chant in your mind, Just do it.
You suck in a breath, “I love you. A lot. Like- more than I think should even be humanly possible, and I think I always have. It’s like- like this weight in my chest everytime I see you, you know? Because you’re you and I'm, well, I'm just me. And I tell myself there’s no way you could ever love me back but then you started acting all weird in the diner and I just- I had to know.” By the end of your rambling you’re panting softly, refusing to even look at Steve. You're too afraid of what you might see.
But Steve feels as if an angel herself has just blessed him. You love him?
You love him?
He feels too shocked to even move, heart practically beating out of his chest as he stares at you. The moonlight brings out your features so nicely, and your lips just look so- so kissable.
It’s crazy. He knows it is. But he’s waited so long, and he’s not sure how many times he can imagine the softness of your lips before he needs to feel it. So he does.
He connects his lips with yours so fast you barely even register it. It’s a soft peck, barely even a kiss really, but it’s perfect to you.
He pulls away quickly, hand on your cheek as he stares into your eyes. Only half of his face is visible in the darkness, but it’s enough for you. Because you’re plunging back in like you’ve been starved.
It’s messy, with clattering teeth and wandering hands. You find purchase in his hair, tugging slightly, and he lets you, groaning slightly at the feeling. His hands ghost of your waist nervously, and you reach down and place them comfortably on your hips.
It should be sinful how good he tastes - like strawberries eaten next to the pool on a warm summer day. “S- Steve,” You gasp between his lips, barely able to get the word out before he’s immediately diving back in.
You indulge in it for a few seconds more, before you’re gently pushing him away from you. He pulls back completely, removing his hands from your waist in a panic, “What’s - What’s wrong?” He pants.
You shake your head, assuring him it’s nothing like that. You take a breath, “What does… does this mean that you..?”
Steve has a big dopey smile on his face, tucking a peice of hair behind your ear, “That I love you?” He mumbles, “Because I do. So much. More than I think you’ll ever know.”
It’s those words that confirm what you’d thought for the past two years. Steve is your soulmate, someone you were always meant to find. Suddenly, you’re thankful for the move. Something that had once seemed life ruining has been the opposite - it brought you to your reason for living.
“Then what does this mean for us?” You question.
It’s then that Steve realizes this might not be all great like he thought it would be - because Tommy and Carol were still in the picture. He couldn’t just walk into school holding hands with you as if they hadn’t spent every waking day making fun of you. He never joined, always choosing to stay silent during their tangents, but he never stopped them either.
He swallows, studying your face. Would loving you be enough for him? Could he throw it all away, the parties, the friends, the popularity - if it meant he’d be able to be with you?
He’s not sure.
But what if he can have both? The popularity and you. He’d just have to keep your relationship a secret just like you had been doing for years, it was that simple! But, he doesn’t want to ruin the moment with you right now and get into that. So instead, he kisses you slowly again and murmurs, “We'll figure it out as we go.”
❣︎
July, 1986
It’s been two weeks since what you called The Tolerable Act. AKA, the day Steve Harrington brought you food and also made himself more tolerable.
You wouldn’t be going out of your way to talk to him, but if he approached you you no longer ran. Your responses were always short - but they were responses. Baby steps.
Today, when you walk into work Steve is already there stacking books and organizing shelves. His eyes are almost immediately drawn to you, and not just because he loves seeing you - no, this time, he notices something.
He thinks his heart drops into his stomach for a moment once he sees the guy with you. You're all smiles and giggles, playing with the hem of your lacy white shirt.
Jason Carver stands casually in the doorway, arm thrown above his head as he leans over you. Steve can’t see what he’s saying from here, but whatever it is, it’s making you blush.
Steve’s not even sure what comes over him - but he’s dropping the rest of the books he was organizing messily onto the shelf and speeding over to you before he can even think it through.
Jason notices first, his eyebrows furrowing as he eyes him. Steve gives a tight lipped smile, brown eyes darting between you and Jason.
Steve never really disliked Jason - he was a nice guy. A little pushy at times, but overall he didn’t seem too bad. But, now, watching Jason flirt with you like he knew anything about you made Steve’s stomach twist in the worst way.
Jason didn’t know you. He didn’t know anything about you! Steve knew it was selfish of him to expect you to be hung up on him forever like he was hung up on you, but did you have to bring Jason here?
“Harrington,” Jason said sultry smooth, bringing his arm down and stuffing his hands into his varsity jacket. He’d graduated last month and was still wearing that thing? Steve thought that was a douchey move. “I didn’t know you worked here.”
Steve hummed, “Started a couple weeks ago.”
Jason smirked, “Still working at dumps like this place, huh?” He joked. Steve could see the intentions behind what he said - they were a poke at Steve still living with his parents and not making it into college. He glances at you, but you don’t say anything, instead choosing to keep your eyes on the carpet.
“Still wearing your highschool jacket in public, huh?”
Jason’s gaze hardened just barely, enough for you to not notice, but Steve did. They both just stared at each other for a few moments, almost like they were challenging each other.
“Jason -” Both boys tore their gazes away from each other and onto you, “I’ll see you tonight, okay?” You usher, silently pushing him out. Jason bent down to kiss your cheek, eyes never leaving Steve’s as he did.
Once he was gone, you turned around and tried to make your way past him to clock in, but Steve stopped you. “Jason Carver? Really?”
Your nostrils flared, eyebrows knitting together as you gave him a harsh glare. “Who I talk to isn’t any of your business anymore.”
“That guys a total asshole!”
“And you aren’t?” You retorted, “I’m not sure if you remember, but let me remind you that-”
He cuts you off with a sigh, large hand running through his hair. His shirt rode up as he did, and you had to force yourself not to look at his tanned skin. “I remember.” He mumbled, “But, at least I've tried to better myself. Jason hasn’t! And he doesn’t deserve you, you’re so much better than he ever will be. I can’t believe you don’t realize that.” He took a breath, studying your face.
Jealousy is something Steve wasn’t used to feeling when it came to you. He’d always known that you were his and he was yours, and nothing would ever change that.
But, watching Jason Carver pull all those little giggles and shy smiles out of you that he used to - it hurt more than he liked to admit. His dad would tell him to: “grow up, she's just some girl after all.”
But you aren’t. Steve doesn’t think you ever were.
“Stop doing that!” You choke out. You’re more than fed up “Stop pretending that you’ve changed and that everything is- everything is fine! You played me for years, Steve. And as soon as I'm back together again you just show up here and remind me why I-” You pause, eyes going glassy and nose turning a shade of red, “why I can’t love you anymore. And it hurts - God, it hurts - but, I won’t allow myself to fall apart like I did again. And Jason- Jason likes me. I know he does. So don’t fucking ruin this for me.”
Steve’s silent, arms crossed over his chest as he processes your outburst. He knows he deserves it and it’s something he thinks he needs to hear, but that doesn’t make it any easier. You played me for years, Steve. Did you really think that?
Still, against his better judgment, he watches you as you turn your back to him and stomp into the back room.
You finally let out the sob you were holding in as soon as you’re out of sight, back hitting the cold stone wall. You hate him. Him and his stupid, stupid face and his horrible jokes. You hate that he can make you feel so many inexplicable things with just one sentence - He doesn’t deserve you.
If Jason doesn’t deserve you, then who does?
You avoid Steve your whole shift, and it’s easy, because Steve avoids you too. Robin called out sick which meant it was just the two of you and that made things so much worse.
You can feel his gaze lingering on you every time the clock ticks closer to your date, and it sends a shiver up your spine each time. If it’s because of your nerves about seeing Jason again or your undeniable longing for Steve, you’re not sure.
Once Jason arrives, Steve watches from behind the counter as you take Jason’s hand and let him lead you to his car, a toothy grin highlighting your face.
He sighs, crossing his legs where he stands and leaning onto his forearms. He feels helpless, like he’s an onlooker in his own life, watching you pull farther and farther away from him and not being able to do anything about it.
Jason’s car pulls away, and you watch as Bookish disappears from your line of sight. It feels foreign - leaving Steve behind to go with another guy. If you’d told yourself two years ago this was what your relationship would become, you never would’ve believed it.
“So, what’s the deal with you and Harrington?” Jason asks, stealing a glance at you.
You chew on your lip, cherry chapstick lingering on your tongue. “We used to be really close, but we kinda just…” You swallow and play with your fingers in your lap, “grew apart.”
Jason hums, fingertips drumming against the wheel as he drives. “You guys seemed more than close back there.”
You’re stumped. You can’t understand why Jason is so interested in this topic, which is something you really don’t want to talk about with him, and understandably so. You think up a quick excuse, “He’s just protective.”
He scoffs out a laugh, “Protective? No, it was more than that. It was like he- he loved you or something.” He says it like there’s no way that could be true. Like The Steve Harrington couldn’t ever love a girl like you.
“I don’t know. Maybe. Can we talk about something else, please?”
Jason doesn’t say anything and just drives silently. He’d told you he was taking you somewhere special but didn’t specify after that - and as you watch him drive deeper and deeper into the woods you’re beginning to get nervous.
He parks next to Lovers Lake, turning in the radio and immediately shifting his seat back.
You’d heard stories of guys doing this - taking a girl out to hook up with and disguising it as a date.
He's leaning over right as you realize what this is, and you pull away quickly, head nearly hitting the window. “Jason, I thought we were going out?”
“We are. I just thought.. we could have fun first.”
You swallow. This was wrong, you knew it was. Didn’t you deserve to go on a real date like other girls do? What made you so different from them?
But… Maybe this was a real date. Maybe this was what other girls did. And if that was true, shouldn’t you indulge? You’d always been aware your relationship with Steve was different than most other highschool relationships, so maybe you were finally getting a taste of the reality.
You kiss him first, practically surging forward. It’s hard and sloppy. It’s too much. It’s wrong.
You remind yourself that this is what real girls do.
You kiss him harder, holding back the whimper that begs to escape from your throat as he slips his tongue into your mouth. He tastes like cigarettes and mint - nothing like Steve.
He pulls you by your hips over the center console awkwardly, your legs banging against the dashboard as you move, but he never breaks apart.
You settle on his lap, letting him push and pull you anyway he wants. He’s in no way soft - wandering hands never asking for permission as he slips them under your shirt. This is wrong, this is wrong, this is wrong-
“Jason-” You breathe between his hungry lips, attempting to push away, but he grabs the back of your neck and forces you against him again. Your hands push at his chest hard, and he’s so shocked he lets you go.
“What’s your problem?” He pants, eyebrows knitted together.
You want to sob- because what the hell are you doing? Kissing Jason Carver in his car in the middle of nowhere? This is wrong. If this is what other girls do, then you don’t want to be like them.
“Can we-” You suck in a breath, shifting uncomfortably on his lap, “Can we just take a break? Maybe actually talk and try to get to know each other?”
He stares at you coldly for a few moments, blue eyes searching your face for something you’re not sure of. Then he’s laughing - as if you’ve said the funniest thing in the world. His chest convulses as he does, and he attempts to kiss you again but you pull away.
His laughter immediately stops and his face contorts into anger, his nostrils flared. “Are you kidding me?”
“Jason-” You attempt, but he’s pushing you off of him before you can get the word out. You land in the passenger seat uncomfortably, legs at an awkward angle but you feel too unnerved to move.
“You came onto me first!”
He was right, you had kissed him first. It was your fault he thought he’d be getting something else tonight. “I know and i’m sorry, but-”
He cuts you off with a laugh, tongue running over his teeth like a hungry animal. “I mean- there’s no way you’re being serious right now, right?” He asks, “Why the hell do you think I brought you out here? To talk? I thought you were smarter than that.”
Your eyes go wide, jaw hanging open as you process his words. Had you really been so stupid?
He points an accusing finger at you, “If you think any guy is going to want you beyond just fucking you then you’re in for a treat. Now get the fuck out of my car.”
“Jason-”
“Get out!”
So you do. You stumble a bit as your feet hit the grass, barely having any time to close the door before he’s speeding off.
The tears come before you can stop them, arms wrapping around yourself as you stare out into the lake.
The water makes the air feel cooler, so goosebumps form across your skin and cause a shiver up your spine. You don’t know how to get home from here - or to the bookshop. But there is one place you can think of.
You're not sure how long you walk, you just know by the time you reach the hill your feet hurt and your calves feel practically numb.
You collapse onto the grass with a soft groan, immediately hugging your knees to your chest. The tears had long since stopped and were replaced with occasional hiccups, eyes glassy but the tears never falling.
You stare up at the sky, finding comfort in all of the familiar constellations. Lately they’d been the only constant thing in your life, the one thing you knew would always be there and would never go away.
You hate that Steve was right more than you’d like to admit. He doesn’t deserve you, you’re so much better than he ever will be. What right did he have to say something like that to you? It makes you almost nauseous.
Steve Harrington had become something of an anomaly to you over the past year. You’d been told thousands of times that he’d changed by Robin - hell, Steve himself had been making an effort to show you that he’d never make the same mistakes he had again, but it was like you couldn’t accept it.
Your heart had subconsciously built up brick walls to protect yourself from ever being hurt like that again, and any mention of Steve Harrington threatened to tear them down.
You sigh, forehead dipping down to rest on your knees. You’re not sure how you’re going to get home, but right now it’s the last thing in your mind.
“Y/N?”
You’re head shoot’s up, neck craning to see the eyes of the person in front of you.
It doesn’t surprise you once you realize it’s Steve, because who else would be out here this late?
“Hi.” You mumble, head immediately going back to lay on your knees comfortably.
He sits down next to you cautiously, plastic bag falling next to him as he does. He subconsciously makes sure to leave enough distance between the both of you so he doesn’t scare you off. “Where’s your date?”
You close your eyes, breaths coming in shallow as you shift uncomfortably. Your head lols lazily to the side, allowing yourself to get a full view of his face. His eyebrows are raised and his arms are behind him and holding his torso up.
“Probably out being a douche somewhere.”
He chuckles, “That bad, huh?”
You nod, a soft smile playing on your lips. “Definitely wasn’t the best date ever.” Not like you had many to compare it to.
“I won’t say it even though I really want to- but just know i’m thinking it really, really hard-”
You roll your eyes, “Just say it.” You huff.
He doesn’t hesitate, “I told you so.”
You mentally conclude that Steve should not be allowed to be right ever. “What are you doing here?” You ask.
Steve’s gaze falls to the grass below, throat bobbing as he swallows. “I needed to clear my head.”
You hum in response and decide not to push it, instead letting your knees stretch in front of you as your hands fall behind you. Your eyes fall to the white Walmart bag next to him and you gesture to it with your head, “What’s in the bag?”
Steve reaches over and pulls out a six pack of cheap beer, the kind you drank when you were trying to get stupid drunk. “I wasn’t planning on having any company, so I hope six’s enough for you.”
You snort, watching as he rips one out of its packaging and hands it to you. You ignore the brush of your hands as you do.
It pops open loudly, and you immediately bring it to your lips, ignoring the burning in your throat as it slides down roughly. Steve does the same, and you both sit in a comfortable silence and drink your respective drinks.
You’re not sure if it’s the alcohol, but you can’t stop looking at him. Thoughts of how pretty he is run through your mind - but so do others. Like questions of how you became strangers who knew everything about each other so quickly.
“Do you ever wonder about what things would be like if.. if we hadn’t broken up?” You question quietly, eyes lingering on the side of his face.
He doesn’t move for a moment, lips thinning out into a line. He breathes in through his nose, “Sometimes I do. But every time I remember how things are between us I have to stop, because lying to myself almost hurts more than the reality.”
Your hands tighten into fists by your side, and you force back another gulp of the warm drink. “How did we even get here?” You suddenly laugh out, “It doesn’t even feel natural.”
Steve shrugs, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. “Honestly? I’m not really sure. Sometimes it feels like one day I was waking up with you and then the next I wasn’t.” Well, technically that is what happened.
You're not sure if it’s the alcohol that gives you courage, but you finally admit, “Sometimes I hate you for turning us into this.” You mutter, “Sometimes I hate myself for not trying to fix it. But, sometimes I think that is how things were always going to turn out - that maybe we were never meant to be in each other's lives and we somehow screwed up Gods plans and this is our punishment.”
“I don’t think he means it as a punishment.” Steve breathes, finally letting himself look at you, “I think it’s more of a lesson. A reminder, maybe.”
You snort, “Well, I hate this lesson, and I’m ready for it to be over.”
“Me too.”
You don’t argue when Steve scoots closer to you so your legs are touching, shorts rubbing against each other awkwardly.
You and Steve share an actual conversation - one without any arguing or resistance from you. It’s a conversation like you used to have.
You don’t argue when Steve offers you a ride home, showing that his beer is still half-way full. You don’t argue when he tells you good night, in fact you bask in it.
That night when Steve goes to bed, he watches your light flick on and your shadow approach the window. You stand there for a while - contemplating he thinks - and he hopes that you do it. That you open the blinds and show him that everything would be okay again.
But you don’t. You flick the light back off, and go to bed. Leaving the blinds closed.

Summary: Y/n and Robin used to be childhood best friends up until Y/n began dating Jason Carver out of the blue. Robin couldn't understand why her best friend would just ditch her for popularity and begin to bully her. But a chance encounter in the girl's bathroom finally revealed the truth behind the secrets both girls shared.
Pairing: Robin Buckley x Ex BFF!Reader
W.A.C Winner: @pastelbabygirl19
Auth.Note: Thank you so much for the patience on this one! I hope you enjoy reading, lovelies! A little bit of a different POV this time around per the request of my lovely winner!
Tumblr media
Written in Robin's POV
She was insufferable. Someone who I just couldn't fucking stand. She could be crass, rude, and downright evil when she wanted to be. But she wasn't always like that. She used to be such an amazing girl to hang out with. Always so helpful, so sweet, and the most reliable person you could ever ask to be around. If someone was in trouble. She would be the one to take the fall to help them. She was that kind of girl. The problem was, she wasn't like that anymore. Not since that day that Jason Carver decided that she was his Hawkins Queen. I never knew what she saw in him. Sometimes, I'd like to think that she wasn't into him at all; just the way her eyes would always gloss over when he went into a rant or speel of whatever was on his mind that day. Or whenever her gaze would automatically drift around the room as if searching for someone. I'd like to think that perhaps she and Jason were meant to be just because I wanted her to be happy. I was selfish because she used to be my best friend. She used to be the best fucking thing in my life; the reason I woke up in the morning. But now, she was my walking nightmare. I fucking hated her. But god did I love the fuck out of her. Y/n knew all about the fact that I was gay. She was the first person I had ever told when I accepted the fact that I liked girls instead of guys. She didn't judge me as I thought considering this time in age same-sex love was the most taboo thing besides murder. But she didn't judge because she confessed that she liked girls too. But she liked boys too which of course I was okay with. Back then I didn't mind. But now, the longer I watch from afar at how she laughs at whatever stupid shit her cronies said and the way she'd lean up under Jason's arm all I wanted was to scream in her face and call her a little liar.
She was a little liar. A liar because she promised me she'd never abandon me. She promised we'd always be friends and that she'd always love me. But here she was standing on the entirely different side of the spectrum of Hawkins High. I hated it so fucking much. Not because I lost my best friend. But because she damn well knew I loved the hell out of her. I'd always loved her; she was the reason I turned gay. She was the first person who I had ever experienced true love with; she was the first girl who gave me a chance to fool around with. We never actually went to bed together but we'd kissed before; it never had changed our relationship between us because she never wanted to go further than some kisses. She never gave me the chance to tell her that I loved her more than just friends with benefits if you even care to call it that before she did a 180 and got turned to the dark side. She didn't mean to bully me. I'd like to think that at least. The way she'd be so mean to me, bully me in all kinds of ways but never physically harm me. But whatever she'd throw at me, whatever she'd dump on me, no matter what cruel and mean words she'd say to me. I knew she regretted it by the way her evil little smile would dim and her eyes would plead for me to forgive her. The regret inside of those e/c orbs would always dig that thorn into my heart a little bit more.
Steve had been there for me along the way. I never thought that I'd ever be friends with Steve Harrington. The former king of Hawkins High. But he'd been there for me when Y/n started bullying me. Funny how he used to do the very same thing to other people before he'd changed his ways and unknowingly given the crown to Jason Carver; the basketball captain of Hawkins High. Now, instead, he was the one who'd replaced the hole in my heart that my best friend no longer occupied. He was the one who even right now as we sat on the hood of his car during lunch period was the one who was trying his best to switch my mood. Trying to shoo away the dark gloom of a thunder cloud that seemed to make residence over my head the instant Y/n walked outside to Jason's car.
"They know we can see them right?" I grumbled glaring across the lot a few cars down to where he and I could clearly see Jason and Y/n in the front seat of his vehicle making out as if the world was going to end. "If they start fucking I swear to god Steve I'm going to throw my food on Carver's car."
"Hey, Robin calm down." Steve's hand rested on my shoulder as he looked uncertainly over at the making-out couple.
"She knows what she's fucking doing Steve! She fucking knows! And she knows it'll piss me off!" I clutch my sandwich so hard in my hands it crumbled dropping some of the items onto my lap.
"You can't do anything about it Rob. You guys were never together…you fooled around but that doesn't mean that you have a right to her." my glare made him raise his hands in the air defensively. "I'm just trying to tell you how it is. I know you love her but damn either tell her or leave her the fuck alone. You can't pine after her across the room all the time and be pissed off when you have the power to do something about it."
I looked away from him to glare angrily at my sandwich before crumbling it up in the wrapper and slid off the hood of his car to go throw my trash away. I had to pass by the stupid couple towards the nearest trash can and I made to bump into the car so they know there were on-lookers. As soon as I met Y/n's surprised eye I shook my head at her and walked off to throw my trash. I could feel her eyes on me as I headed inside with Steve running after me and calling my name. I mean, he wasn't wrong. I hated it but he wasn't wrong. I've been allowing her to do all this shit to me while keeping my lips sealed about our little secret. I was so tired of it. So I chose to finally gather some courage to tell her straight up whenever I had the chance today.
That chance came far too quickly for my liking since I didn't know what I was going to say. I was in the bathroom washing my hands after using the toilet whenever the door opened and Y/n walked in looking so perfect in her skirt and blouse; the only atrocity was Jason's letterman jacket around her shoulders that was white and green that clashed with her clothing. She didn't even acknowledge my presence until she was finished doing her business and was standing beside me washing her hands. Her gaze finally lifted to meet mine in the mirror and she scowled.
"What was that about this morning?" she asked with a snippy tone that I really didn't like.
"I should be asking you the same thing; I thought you weren't fond of PDA?" I sneer back a little hurt at the memory.
"Jason's my boyfriend Robin! What he and I do is none of your fucking business skank!"
I froze feeling my heart start beating faster at that insult. Skank? I was a fucking skank now?! I spun to her and my hand flew out making contact with her cheek and making her stumble back a second feeling her face that stung with my slap. Her e/c wide lifted to me were filling with anger and spite as she launched forward and shoved me back against the wall beside the sinks
"You have no fucking right Robin!" she yelled smacking my shoulder.
I took note of the fact she hadn't actually tried to physically harm me. Even that hit to my shoulder didn't hold a punch and I took that opportunity to grab her wrist and spin us against the wall so that her back was now pressed against the cold surface instead of mine. I glared at her and lowered my voice when I thought I heard voices by the bathroom doors.
"You're calling me a skank when you damn well know you're the one playing for both sides Y/n! You pretend like I mean nothing to you after you got what you want. Do you not remember what we promised before high school? What we had before high school? Before fucking Jason Carver decided you were his dream?" I sneer glaring into her face. "You don't fucking remember…am I that disposable?"
I could see the glistening of tears in her eyes. Oh, she hadn't forgotten. Not one word or memory. But there was something behind those eyes that had my gears coming to a screeching halt as her body just went limp against the wall. Her hands shakily rose to grip the front of my sweater; her head lowered so that she didn't have to look at the anger that radiated across my face.
"He found out okay?!" she finally choked out. "Jason found out that I liked girls and he threatened that if I didn't play along then he'd let the entire school know I'm a whore. I was scared okay? I was scared because I knew if he told the school the bullying would get worse and then you'd get bullied too because he knew we were best friends. I didn't want that so I played along…I didn't want the popularity; I fucking can't stand those idiots…but I had to so that you didn't get hurt okay? I didn't forget our promise…I just had to do what I did to protect you." she leaned against me and the grip on my shirt tightened as I felt the strength she was holding off the sobs started to wane into trembles.
"You…" my brain short-circuited as I took in the information. The anger I felt was replaced by regret because I realized I alienated and hated my best friend without knowing the truth behind why she suddenly changed her ways. I was only hurting myself when I did that.
"So…you don't actually love him…" I was talking more to myself than to her but her head shook side to side in an affirmative negative.
"I can't his fucking guts Robin. He's such a stuck-up snob who thinks he can get away with anything," she mumbled sniffling.
"I'm sorry…I'm so sorry Y/n. I thought you wanted the popular life…I thought you just didn't need me anymore" I confessed wrapping my arms around her shoulders tentatively.
"Fuck no!" her arms wrapped around my waist. "If it meant abandoning my best friend I would do anything, give up anything if it meant you weren't targeted…" her head raised to look at me and I could see the tear streaks along her cheeks making my heart ache a bit more.
"I love you, Robin…That never changed. You don't know how many nights I'd imagine it was you holding me while Jason and I cuddled against the sofa while watching a movie. O-Or pretending that you were with me whenever we walked through the halls. I just…I needed my best friend Robin. I needed you more than anything but I couldn't have you because if I had you it would only be hurting you." she confessed looking so scared and so regretful that I couldn't help but press my forehead against hers and hold her closer to me.
"I wished you were with me too…I missed your presence and the way you laugh at my stupid jokes or the way you're damn perfume never seems to want to leave my bedsheets. I still have the shirt you left at my house that I sleep with just to feel a little closer to you." I sighed before pulling away to cup her face. "I missed you Y/n… and if you'll have me I want you back…"
A small smile tugged at her quivering lips. "We weren't actually together Robin you realize that right? We were just two best friends fooling around." she reached up to smooth her thumb along the corner of my lips as they turned down into a frown before she spoke again. "And I don't want that kind of relationship with you Robin. I want more…I don't care if Jason bullies us or our name gets run through the mud. We'll be graduating soon anyways and I just want to be able to call you mine; hold your hand in public and be that jealous girlfriend who glares at everyone who tries to flirt with you." her smile only grew which made my own start to light up my face as I registered her words.
"Are you serious?"
She nodded with a soft laugh as she interlaced our fingers together and held them between us. "I love you, Robin. Will you forgive me for how I treated you all these months? Will you be my girlfriend, officially?" she asked me looking at me with such hope
My face must have been awestruck because I felt like I was in a dream. I picked my jaw off the floor as I finally nodded excitedly. "That would be amazing." I breathed out feeling my face grow hot with the realization this was actually happening.
Her face lit up and she shyly leaned up. I didn't hesitate to lean down to meet her; her lips were soft like flower petals and tasted of her favorite cherry chapstick making me sigh contently into the familiarity of the feel and taste of her lips against mine.
"I've missed you." she smiled against my mouth as her hands raised to sink into my hair and pull me closer to kiss me a little bit more boldly.
I could feel the wetness of her tongue run along the seam of my lips asking for entrance and I was more than happy to give in forgetting just how amazing of a kisser she actually was as the first hints of her peppermint toothpaste registered on my tongue as mine met hers. I pressed closer to her as much as I could and slotted my thigh between hers to pin her against the wall. She let out a little exhale of surprise against my mouth as she pressed against the rough fabric of my jean-clad leg. I knew we couldn't go further or try to fool around in the girl's bathroom but I really had missed her and I hated the thought of waiting. But the bathroom door opened allowing entry of a few chattering girls who hadn't noticed our compromising position. At the sound of their voices, we jumped apart and shared a sheepish look. We had to practice not feeling so embarrassed to show our love for each other in public. But for now, I was more than happy to have her at my side again. Sharing a secretive smile I watched her leave the bathroom first without a word and a few minutes later I followed suit. I could see her with Jason again and at first I felt a bit jealous but when she looked over her shoulder at me with that little smile I knew it was okay.
She may not dump Jason right away considering he was pretty much blackmailing her but I knew even when his arm draped over her shoulders that even if he physically had possession of her at that moment. I had her heart. She was mine. Always was and always will be. We'd deal with Jason together and fight any other motherfucker who got in our way just like we used to; together. It was her and I…and my friend Steve.
If you like my work please consider reblogging this for others to read as well! Much love!
