she hated her, right? - ronance

part 4

Nancy hadn't said a word to Robin in a whole week, this was what robin wanted, but now she's kinda regretting the deal she made! Robin saw Nancy a few times, but they never spoke and for some reason robin didn't know, Nancy always looked upset like something was wrong!

Robin suddenly woke from her thoughts when a horn blew outside, signalling that steve is here to drop her off at school!

"hey steve!" she said getting in the car! "i finally got Nancy to stop speaking to me!" She tried acting happy, but deep down she knew it made her sad!
"thats a good thing right? for u? i, personally, would love for her to speak to me!" Steve said driving off!
"uhm.. ye." she sighed and looked out the window

the rest of the way, Robin kept silent, while Steve screamed lyrics to songs! when they got there robin waved bye and headed into school!

some part of her hoped Nancy would be waiting at her locker, like she did the week before, but nothing! Robin started to feel lost, she was fine being lonely before, but now she's not, what is going on? the school days were boring without Nancy stalking her! or without Nancy in general... but she didnt want to admit that! but almost like she could read her mind, A familiar girl came up behind her!

"hey Robin, uhm ik u dont want me speaking to u but... uhm... can i come to work w u tonight, uhm my parents are in one of their big fights... i just don't wanna be at home at a time like... this-" Nancy says, almost too quickly for robin to understand any of what she just said!
"uh.. ye, ye thats fine! are u... are u ok?!" she says glancing at the tear nearly falling out her eye!
"i'm fine, will steve be okay with driving me?" Robin could see that Nancy was trying to be happy, to smile, but she knew deep down that she wasn't okay!
"ye, he'll be okay with it!"
"are u sure?! i can get another lift-"
"Nancy, Nancy i promise it's fine! Do u want a hug?" She asks, Nancy nodded and robin wrapped her arms around her back, butterflies rushed in and out her body, but now wasn't the time for emotions!

the bell rings and robin looked over to Nancy, who had her head down, she knew it was worse than whats she's describing! "Nance? u gonna be ok?"
"I mean no, but I'll manage" she smiles, which again made robin's insides flip.. this time she didn't ignore it and smiled back!

After school robin and Nancy ran through the parking lot, as it was raining, and straight into steves car, nancy getting in the back! "its cool if we could give her a lift?"
"ye, ye its so cool! uhm where to nance!?" he says almost in a daze! Robin shook her head and laughed, Steve punched her arm!
"im coming with u guys!"
"uhm okay!"

during the car ride robin kept checking back to see if Nance was ok, she didn't know why, it's not like they were friends!

when they got there Nancy took a seat at a table and steve went to get an apron on and wash his hands and Robin walked over to the table Nance is at. "hey uhm we open in about 15 minutes, and we finish at 9, if u want uhm... idk... we have colouring books and crayons, but they r for kids, u can have on tho if u want, to stop u from getting bored.. also would u like some icecream?!" Robin asked with her hands on the table, she could've sworn Nancy was staring at her, not that it mattered obviously!
"i uhm... i have no money for icecream!" she looked down
"Nance its ok!" she lifts her head up with her hand! Nancy's face turned a slight shade of pink, making robin smirk in a 'I did that' way,
"its on the house!" she then smiles and walks away, making her mint choc chip icecream as she overheard her asking steve last time! she hands the icecream to Nancy! "if u need anything, u know where i am!"

why did she care so much for Nancy, she hated her, exept she doesn't anymore, she feels something else for her... tho she may not know it now, Robin Buckley was in love with nancy wheeler...
