|| Nancy POV: ||
|| It had been a week since everything happened. Robin was now living with Steve. But to both me and robins surprise we where still good friends. We walked each other to class, ate lunch together, we even studied in the afternoon together. ||

|| I was so grateful to become friends with the girl. I saw a glimpse of someone else in Robin. A glimpse of my old best friend, a glimpse of Barbra. I think that's what makes me so protective of Robin. I don't want to lose her too. But at the same time, I didn't want to be the girls friend. ||

|| I couldn't believe I was thinking this. But I wanted to be something more. I just felt so safe with Robin. Nancy what the actual fuck. You're straight. But, it just feels so right. Robin was just so mesmerizing, I just wanted to kiss her lips. ||

|| a couple days later ||

|| Robin POV: ||
|| "Hey nance!" I ran up to Nancy. "Hey, what's your first period?" Nancy and I where standing by our lockers. "Yeah it's science." "Same! Shall we go?" Nancy started walking slowly to the class. ||

|| "Hey, Nancy. I think everything it's getting a little bit overwhelming, I'm just gonna go sit down for a moment. I'm sorry." Nancy grabbed my hand. "It's okay, we'll go tell mr Wilson, and we'll go sit down and get you calmed down alright?" I just got red in the face, almost crying. "Hey, thank you Nancy, you can walk to class if you want to. I don't want to be a burden. I'll just sit down for a moment and I'll come back." I smiled, slowly starting to walk away from Nancy. ||

|| "Hey! Robin! Stop. I'm coming with you. I've been there before. And i know you'll need someone to be there. You're not being a burden." I nodded in response. We both went and quickly told mr Wilson, then we went under a couple of stairs, and sat down. ||

|| Nancy opened her bag and pulled out headphones. With a VHS tape connected to it. "Here robs, uhm I thought you maybe would like to listen to your favorite song, I thought It might help you calm down, uhm sorry if it'll just make you more stressed. You know what? Forget it." Nancy rambled, then putting the tape and headphones ack into her bag. ||

|| She was quickly stopped by my hand on her hand. She blushed bright red. "Hey Nancy. Nancy! It's okay. I would love that. Also? How do you know what my favorite song is?" I was also bright red, "well when we where in your room, I saw your VHS player having "Dancing queen" by ABBA in it, and then I saw a lot of other ABBA songs on your dresser, so I figured you liked ABBA, and then that this was one of your favorites since it was in your VHS. And then I went and bought it, just in case you'd need to drown out the sounds you know? I'm sorry if I'm weird knowing and doing all this. It's just, I really care for you. Really really care for you." ||

|| I was almost crying. "You're not weird. And yes, it is my favorite song. Now can you please hug me? Because I'm at the point where I almost can't breath and this shirt is so tight, well it's not actually tight, it's loose. But it feels like I'm getting so strangled right now." I let out in one breath. ||

~

|| Nancy POV: ||
|| I just put the headphones on robins head, clicked play on The VHS player, then pulled robin in for a hug after asking for consent, wich I of course got immediately. I then also un buttoned one of robins buttons on her shirt. For the breathing to get easier. ||

|| After about 3 minutes robin sighed. "Nancy it's not really working. It's just getting harder." Robin cried. "Okay Robin. Here, follow my breathing, see if it helps. It did last time remember?" I said super softly, putting Robins slightly trembling hand on my stomach lightly. ||

~

|| After about 10 minutes robin has gotten back to "normal", we decided to go back to class, seeing there was still 30 minutes remaining of our science lesson. ||

|| "Hey Mr Wilson. Thank you for letting us sit down for a moment." I apologized and thanked him, and then we both sat down at our desk. ||

~

|| Robin POV: ||
|| When the last bell rang, me and Nancy met up, we hugged. Butterflies. That was the only thing Robin felt in those few seconds. Butterflies. I hated to hide feelings. But it was necessary in this moment. I didn't want to ruin my first friendship i had with a girl since kindergarten. I  just couldn't. So I just bottled up my emotions. I was used to doing that. ||

|| "Hey, Robin, you alright?" I snapped out of my thoughts. "Yeah I'm sorry. I-  just zoned out for a moment I'm sorry. What were you saying?" Nancy giggled. "I thought since it's Friday, and we don't see each other after school that often anymore since you live with Steve, I thought maybe we could have a sleepover. My parents aren't home either." ||

|| I got so happy I started stimming. "Yes yes yes. Yes I want to of course I mean, is that even a question. I'll spend every second I can with you-" those words made Nancy's stomach full of butterflies, butterflies. Robin just gave me butterflies. ||

|| I instantly see Nancy's confused face. "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that it's just. You're my first female friend since like kindergarten and I love hanging with you. And I'd love to, I'm sorry again. You know what, I probably freaked you out. Uhm I'll see you on Monday. Bye." I started speed walking. ||

~

|| Nancy POV: ||
|| I ran after robin. Being way faster I grabbed the taller girls arm, and pulled her facing me. "Robin. ROBIN. Stop. Breath. I want to be with you every chance I get. Even more than that. I want to be with you all the time. Okay. Now please. Can we go. Because I can see it in your eyes. It's too much sound here." ||

|| "Thank you Nancy. M-may I borrow your h-headphones?" I just got them up and put them on robins head, then Clicked play. ||

|| I then asked for consent for taking robins hand. And as the girl nodded, I grabbed her hand and we  started walking our way to Nancy's car. ||

|| in Nancy's car ||
|| "I'm sorry about earlier, for grabbing your hand without your consent. I'm sorry." Robin quickly hesitated, but then put her hand on my knee, slightly squeezed it. I got red at the touch. ||

|| "Nancy. It's okay. You know, I feel so comfortable around you. You don't have to ask me for consent. Because I know you'd never hurt me." I almost cried. "You can trust me with that one Robin. I would never hurt someone. Especially not you. You deserve nothing bad." I was shocked at my own sayings. We where both sitting in shock looking at the road in front of us. Flustered. Full off butterflies. ||
