[she's not trying to be!!]

I guess. [nancy rubs the back of her neck.] I shouldn't bother you about it.

[this entire town could use some therapy, probably. nancy pulls her jacket tighter around her own shoulders, then frowns.]

What do you want, Steve? You avoid the question when I ask.

[and just like he's looking out for her, she's trying to do the same for him. there's a flicker of disappointment on her face at his answer, but she can't push if he's unsure.]

You should probably take me home, then.

[said without any kind of malice or anger. she knows what she wants now: him, and her eyes say as much even as she cuts them towards the car.]

[that catches her slightly off guard, and she keeps her eyes on his car.]

I don't know if I work with anyone, Steve.

Kind of surprised to hear that, honestly. [she is: steve had never seemed to have trouble finding romance in the past. she touches the side of his car.] Is your door unlocked?

Steve.

[nancy doesn't move, looking back at him now, her voice firm again.]

You weren't a shit boyfriend. I loved you.

The way I felt about anyone else has nothing to do with how I feel or felt about you. It wasn't a contest, I just - we both wanted vengeance.

[she takes a shallow breath.]

I loved him, yeah. But I loved you, too, and I won't let you hold him against me.

[nancy wonders if she would have fallen out of love with him if she hadn't been so desperately chasing barb's memory. what would she have done if those years hadn't been so completely driven by grief and guilt?]

You don't believe me.

[and she actually seems offended here.]

Because - what? Because I couldn't say it back before we broke up?

[it's freezing out here, but she's unwilling to budge now.]

That you made me happy. That I loved you. It just - I needed things I couldn't ask you for.

[personal profile] whatwestarted 2022-12-29 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
You were -

[she makes a quiet noise of frustration.]

You were worried about - graduating and jobs and parties and I wanted that for you. I wanted you to live your life. I couldn't ask you to come take down the Hawkins Lab with me between basketball games.

[and then, more quietly-]

I didn't want you tangled up in all of this any more than you needed to be.

[personal profile] whatwestarted 2022-12-29 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I know you would have. It just - it wasn't the right time for us. [she's visibly flustered.]

But you're still mad at me for dating Jonathan.
