IN WHICH...
"You don't love him Nancy! You know that as much as I do! He's hurting, let him go. Just admit that you're in love with Johnathan and let Steve go." Rose doesn't know why she's fighting so hard for this. Nancy huffs out a breath of air...

"Hey Rose can you-"
"No. "
"But-"
"No." She repeats again. She stares at the boy through her mirror as she pulls up her hair. He glares at her, putting out his bottom lip to pout. She laughs, wrapping her hair tie around her wrist and twisting it around her hair. She lets her hands fall to her side turning around from the sink.
"Please. I'll pay you back every cent." She snorts walking passed him, hearing him shuffle behind her.
"Like hell you will." She scoffs.
"Language." Jean shares from her spot at the table. She has the newspaper in her hands. Dustin runs after the girl getting in front of her. Dramatically he falls to his knees holding out his hands together.
"Please, please, please, please please." She walks around him nodding to Jean as she leaves the house, her hoodie on to keep her warm as the months grow colder once again. Dustin cries out running after her.
An Arcade opened up in Hawkins last week. September 1st it opened, and everyday Dustin has been begging Rose for money to go and play with the rest of the party. Its been almost a year since Will came back from the "dead".
She waves to Nancy whos waiting in the car across the street. Dustin tugged on her arm making her stop. She sucks in a breath glaring heavily at the boy. His eyes widen and he releases her arm.
"I'll never ask you again Rose. They just got in a new game and I really, really, really want to try and play it." Rose bites her lip, shaking her head. She sighs out squeezing shut her eyes. She reaches in the back pocket of her jeans where she kept some cash and change in case she needs anything. Dustins eyes light up and he grins ear to ear. She take hold of two dollar bills, crumbling them up in her palm. She holds her hand just above his awaiting one.
"Last. Time." She warns pointing her other finger at him. He quickly nods and she drops the money into his palm. She walks off the curb hearing him yell thank you toward her. She waves him off getting into Nancys car. Its not Nancys, but its her dads.
She opens the door, shutting it with a small slam. Nancy is smirking at the teen before she even closed the door.
"The arcade?" She asks releasing the brake on the car and driving off. Rose nods, sliding her hands along her hair to make sure it was still in place.
Rose, Nancy, and sadly Steve all have similar classes this semester. One of them all three shared. A test was on Monday and Nancy ensured that they all study together. Rose could care less what her grades were in a science class.
Nancy had the music softly playing in the background.
"So, how's it going with Stevie?" The two had gotten back together shortly after finding Will. Rose couldn't tell if it was a good or bad thing yet. Rose eyed Nancy and could already see the heat rising to her face.
