the day the music died (robin x female/nonbinary reader)

phone box

author note: ⚠️ HOMOPHOBIC SLUR⚠️

y/ns pov:
I run down the streets of hawkins, I cant process what just happened w-what it makes me, I i dont wanna think about it, as I turn the corner I see a phone box, I climb in searching in my pockets for a coin. any coins.

"fuck!" I practically screamed when I cant find anything.  I slide down the glass wall and cry.

I-I'm gay, im a fucking fag. me out of anyone, me why me tho. I've heard what people do to this one kid in our school, whats his name, e....ed idk something like that. People beat him up all because he's rumored to be gay I mean he could be but with out any proof they still beat him up. ahhh idk, idk when robins parents came in it just hit me that this is not how it can be because realistically , people get hate crimed for this kinda stuff. it hit me that other people exist homophic people also exist.

all of a sudden the phone box door opens, there's no light so I cant see who it is, I stumble to get up but there's no space.

"its me its me robin" robin says , she sounds like she's been crying to. she sits down in the phone box ,we sit our knees touching, not really being able to see each other, only in dull light of the street lamp across the road.

we sit in silence for a while before at the same time we both say " im so sorry"

"you have nothing to apologise for" I say putting my hands on robins knees. "I panicked i have a lot going through my head and I just freaked, I should have stayed and talked to you instead running out on you like that" I said tears re forming in my eyes.

"its ok" robin says " can I asked what freaked you out so much?"

I took a deep breath " its just when your parents came back in I like got hit by a  bus of reality, it felt like it was just me and you in that moment intill I heard them, and remembered we are in hawkins in the 80s homophic people are everywhere.  I- ive heard story's about this this kid in our school something like ed ed something" I said

" Eddie muson I've heard to. about the rumors?" robin says her voice  sad

" yeah... but there's no proof ,he could be yeah, but even with out proof he's now being bullied and beat up and shit, im just im just a bit scared. not of you, never of you or us i-i liked the...kiss. I just got scared "

nothing was said , robin wrapped her arms around me and we sat like this for a while.

idk how long its been but I pull away from the hug " where is your face?" I say laughing.

robin takes my hand in hers and places it on her cheek.  I lean forward and we kiss, I have an overwhelming sense of happiness and I cant help but smile which causes robin to smile too.

the end...
author note:
hey I know I said there was a lot left to write but I decided not to do my original plan, my original plan will take ages to write after this and this will be like the longest wattpad story on record. I also wanted to make sure that I stayed motivated, if I carry on it might get a bit boring or really spaced out chapters (longer than usual for me) and I want to make sure you guys get more regular chapters . I started this story over a year ago, I dont wanna mess it up by forgetting things that have happened bc I wrote them so long ago. I hope you all really enjoyed it, the love for this story has made me so happy im glad you like it. the ending i had planned  I have said already will take ages to do, and it would have been a sad ending so I also figured this was a nice place to stop , with a cute ending.  I've been thinking about starting a new story. I love all my current readers, so I wanted to ask if you had any ideas for the next one, it could be for love interests or whay you want y/n to be like, I might not use them all but I also want to know what you guys want to read. I have an idea but if you guys have any im open to suggestions but don't be upset if they're not used. also any tips on how to make my storys more enjoyable, if its spelling or the time in between chapters im already aware 🤭.thank you again I hope you guys have enjoyed it im so grateful for all the readers ❤
