"We've known each other longer than you think, love." [ON TEMPORARY HIATUS) • 1982 • (smut included) • Josephine Brenner was now used to the confinement of the white tiled walls of Hawkins National Laboratory. She'd been there since she was 10, when she had met 001, Henry. He was an unusual child, differing greatly from the childish kids she'd known from school. He was special. And he was her first friend she'd ever made in that lab. After a year, he'd disappeared, dead, her father claimed. But something in her told her he was still alive, trapped. But what could she do, with nearly all her memories of him gone? Why couldn't she remember him as clearly? 8 years later, she works as an orderly under her father, desperate for change. That's when she meets Peter, a cold, mysterious figure with a face too perfect to be true. His eyes were too blue and fair, and his blonde waves perfectly framed his golden face. Was he the answer to her lifetime of questions? What did he know that she didn't? This story is a Romance-thriller-mystery full of everything you didn't know you needed. Through the lens of Josephine, you find out the secrets of Hawkins Lab along with the thrill of Peter Ballard and his mysterious demeanor. Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters except for Y/N Brenner and a few others. All other characters belong to Stranger Things or the Duffer Brothers. @imadethisasajoke.69 on tiktok, I post updates about the story there :) Also join my discord server!

(001 fic) "My little secret," he whispers. "Try your hardest to stay quiet for me. I don't want your daddy hearing just how much I'm tainting his little angel, got it?" Then his hands and lips are everywhere and I have to bite down on my tongue to keep from screaming out loud, lest my father hears and I ruin our little secret." Juliette is the daughter of Dr. Martin Brenner, better known as "Papa." She knows her father loves his other "children" more than his own biological one, which is why she's so excited to move out to her dream college. But then an incident occurs revealing that Juliette is not just the average girl she thought she was. Juliette finds herself right in the middle of her fathers lab, alone with a newfound power, and assigned to train with Peter Ballard, a man she hates, a man who might be hiding something dark underneath those bright blue eyes and sweet smile. Can the two navigate this labyrinth together or will they drown underneath the weight of it all? -Obviously spoilers for season 4 of stranger things- -Chapters= 5000+ words (yeah they're rly long) -Smut/ mature themes... not for the kiddos lol -Word Count= over 200,000 -I will send 001 after you if you steal (plagiarize) anything from my story<3

1985. Hawkins Indiana. You were such an upgraded person from where you used to be. A better mind. a more controlled storage of thoughts. A solid barrier on emotions. No longer grasping handholds in attempt to hang on to sanity, no longer feeling pairs of eyes on you in badly-hidden caution. No longer laying your fate in their hands. Far from normal is everything around you, unfolding superficial disasters with their horrifying unusual pull. A pull with a direct connection to your mind, that you led yourself to believe you had well under control. 1986. Maybe upgraded person wasn't the right pair of words. Maybe, there isn't a word for it. Not that you know of. But he does. 001. Peter Ballard. unusual, at times. slightly unnerving. the epitome of what you believed the definition of secret to be. and so, very, tempting. "Your lies feed into lust, prying at every ounce of control I've ever reigned to keep, tearing that control cleanly apart." ... "Let every word that falls from your mouth then, be a lie." I do not claim to own any of these characters! or any song lyrics that I may add. All rights go to Stranger Things, and the Duffer Brothers. The story however, comes completely from my own imagination.
