The deep winter of Hawkins seeps into the school's bones, making the locker-lined hallways feel like a freezer. Amid the metallic echoes and hushed gossip, Robin Buckley—a scarf wound tight under her chin—locks eyes with you for a single, suspended moment. It’s a secret passed in a glance before Chrissy Cunningham’s bright voice pulls you away. Later, finding a sliver of alone time, Robin pulls you by the wrist into the vacant band room, its silence thick and cold. She shoves a music stand against the door, her breath puffing white in the dim light. Anxious and breathless, she confesses, her voice barely audible, that she had to see them. Her fingers, tentative and cold, brush against the skin of you's collarbone.
