Lisa Henderson didn't like Steve Harrington. Not at all. They were best friends as kids and now they didn't talk, and Lisa was content in forgetting about his existence which was easy since they didn't have the same friends. That was until he started dating her best friend, Nancy Wheeler. Trying to adapt to his unwelcome return into her life, as well as trying to stay out of whatever her brother Dustin and his friends were secretly up to was no easy feat, especially when literal monsters were thrown into the mix. Lisa Henderson didn't like Steve Harrington, but she also couldn't seem to get rid of him. And maybe, just maybe, she didn't actually mind that much. --- The characters and the overall storyline/setting belong to the Duffer brothers. Lisa Henderson and any new plotlines are my creation. Title inspired by the song 'Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)' by Journey --- Originally started in January 2023, but reposting with edits in August 2025!

"You promise?" Steve Harrington decided Tessa Hopper was worth knowing the moment he met her in seventh grade. Fifteen minutes later, after she made Tommy Hagan cry with a few mean words and a deadly glare, he decided she was his new best friend. Four years later, and that hasn't changed. Except, unfortunately for Tessa, friendship stopped being enough somewhere along the way. Steve is her best friend, her safe place, and the one person who could break her heart without even meaning to. But having already lost enough people to last her a lifetime, Tessa's learned to hold onto the people who stay, even if that means settling for whatever scraps of Steve she can get. But when Will Byers goes missing, and Hawkins begins unraveling into a town of monsters, secrets, and things no one was ever supposed to see, everything changes. Including Steve. Suddenly, the feelings Tessa spent years trying to bury are not so easy to hide anymore, especially when Steve starts looking at her like he's finally seeing what's been right in front of him all along.
