to love a boy - buckingham au

CHRISSY CUNNINGHAM, -the darling popular girl at hawkins high school- is absolutely broken when Jason breaks up with her for the second time that summer - she didn't blame him because he was having family problems and was really mad at everyone. but when she apologizes and tells him that she's sorry about what happened (even though she still doesn't know what she did) he decides to lash out and tell her that she'll never amount to anything -

- and that's why she's in a mall ice cream shop filling out a job application for the summer.
