That he would never get over her and that she was the only love he was meant to have in his life. Until a certain brown-skinned curly head walked through the doors of Scoops Ahoy one random evening and started eating ice cream right out of a tub like she owned the place. Mariah Sinclair was what the town referred to as "A hidden gem", having been living off in her own small world across the country with her cousins, she was finally back home. And the town had almost forgotten about the eldest Sinclair child in the decade she had been MIA. But now she's back, finished with high school and trying to get her life together while also trying to mend the lost relationship with her siblings and apparently...the infamous Steve "the hair" Harrington who follows her around like a lost puppy. •̩̩͙⁺˚ ⁺‧͙⁺˚•̩̩͙⁺˚ ⁺‧͙⁺˚•̩̩͙⁺˚ ⁺‧͙⁺˚•̩̩͙⁺˚ "𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮."

Y/n L/n has lived in Hawkins, Indiana her whole life. But while she's in high school, some strange things begin happening around town, starting with the disappearance of Will Byers. With the help of some middle schoolers, along with her own "friends", Y/n will face the demogorgon and try and stop the evil that is trying to destroy Hawkins. But following that, there's the Mind Flayer, the Russians, and finally Vecna, all aiming to tear apart the once normal town. Throughout it all, Y/n forms strong friendships, and even finds love in the jerk turned babysitter Steve Harrington. But will Y/n and her friends survive? Or will some of them fall to these villainous creatures? Note: The story is only complete for the time being. I will continue editing it once the fifth and final season comes out.

Moving into the small town of Hawkins during her sophomore year of high school wasn't a treat, but she didn't let it ruin her spirits too much. In fact, she even made some new friends along the way. Granted, most of them were in middle school and were major nerds, but that didn't bother her. She even joined in on some of their DnD campaigns whenever they invited her. It was fun, that was until one of the kids, Will, went missing. Along the way to finding him, (Y/N) befriends some people from her own school, including the goody-two-shoes Nancy Wheeler, and her boyfriend, Steve "The Hair" Harrington. She never really understood why everyone was obsessed with Steve. Or was everyone obsessed with his hair? She never knew. He could be a real asshole sometimes, too. But for whatever reason, she finds herself becoming closer with him the more they hang out. Maybe the king himself wasn't all too bad. - I've rewritten this book as I didn't like the plot all too much! You can find it on my profile titled "Waiting For A Girl Like You". This book is a slow-burn and will be going through the episodes of Stranger Things in order starting from season 1. SEASONS 1-3 FINISHED - LONG CHAPTERS -

I wasn't supposed to be in the story. Not the kind with monsters, gates, or government labs. "This little fairy freak," he said, gesturing toward me like I was something stuck to his shoe. "Always floating around in her weird outfits, acting all sweet and innocent-like she doesn't watch people making out from bathroom cracks like a total psycho." I froze. The air left my lungs. "Steve," Nancy whispered sharply beside him, "it was the girl's bathroom." But he wasn't listening. "She's always staring," he continued. "Like we're all in some sad little movie she made up in her head. Always acting like she's not dying for attention." I was just the girl with too-soft sweaters and panic attacks. The one who watched people fall in love from the sidelines. The one who crushed silently on Steve Harrington while he kissed other girls in haunted high school bathrooms. Then Will Byers went missing. And suddenly I was helping Nancy reload a shotgun. Hiding from the Demogorgon on rooftops. Whispering to Dustin like I was his big sister. Running. Fighting. Surviving. And somewhere in between the broken cameras, the Halloween parties, the Upside Down... Steve started looking at me like I was in the story too.

"God, you're fucking pretty," he blurts. "Funny," she utters. "Was gonna say the exact same thing about you." ________________________________________ Steve Harrington never really gave Rosemary much thought. Why would he? She was just the girl next door. The weird one. She was just the weird girl next door. Until she wasn't. Until she grew up and aged like a fine wine. ________________________________________ I just wanted to write something cute. Oneshot type fic that follows one of my Stranger Things OCs (NOT canon to my Flipped ST fic). Idk I just always had this headcanon that Steve had this weird but cute neighbour that he grew up with and would eventually fall for. Also always liked the idea of an adorable side-character that had more to her than meets the eye, and would join the main cast in S5. Let me know what you think!
