Steve Harrington and Olivia Henderson have been the best of friends since they could remember. It was a coincidence, really. They got put in the same eighth grade class when her family moved to Hawkins. As time went on, they were practically joined at the hip!.. until they turned 14, and Olivia started babysitting her little brother, Dustin, and his best friends, Mike Wheeler, Will Byers and Lucas Sinclair. A crush on Steve developed for Olivia when they entered the 9th Grade a year later at Hawkins High School. Olivia changed a little when high school started. Her clothing got a little darker; black shirts and black Chuck Taylor's. She still wore her denim; she couldn't shy away from it, but she added more than just blue denim jeans. Skirts and shorts were added to her wardrobe. Steve became popular in High School and was dubbed the King of Hawkins High after the previous King graduated. Steve felt he had to live up to the expectations of being King, but that didn't really stop Olivia from hanging out with him when he wasn't around Tommy H. and Carol. Things started to change when he became attracted to Nancy Wheeler, Mike's older sister. He started ditched Olivia more for Nancy, and she understood, but didn't like it. The night Will Byers went missing, it put a few things into perspective for Olivia, like her protectiveness for Dustin grew, as well as her friendship with Will's older brother, Jonathan. Dustin, of course, dragged his sister into the craziness of Eleven, a mysterious girl with superpowers that showed up out of nowhere. Will Olivia eventually tell Steve about her feelings for him during their Upside Down adventures, or will she continue to keep it a secret?

Aurora Whitney Hopper had a pretty perfect and normal life growing up. Until she moved to Hawkins and everything turned upside down. Her sister passed away, then her parents got divorced, her dad was a disaster, and she felt everything was her fault. She didn't protect her sister. She wasn't there for her. Then years later, her friends brother, Will Byers, goes missing and she gets tangled into more trouble. Warning this book contains cursing words and blood/gore scenes.

ABIGAIL HENDERSON never thought she'd fade into the background - it just sort of happened. As Dustin Henderson's elder sister, she learned early how to be responsible, patient, and quietly brave. Either way, she was still slightly nerdy and endlessly observant. Working at Scoops Ahoy for the summer of 1985 was meant to be temporary. Just a job. Just ice cream. Just a sailor uniform she hated. But somewhere between late-night shifts, whispered conversations, and the flickering neon lights of Starcourt Mall, Abigail realised she was standing in the middle of something far bigger - something dangerous. And standing far too close to someone she was trying desperately not to care about. STEVE HARRINGTON was impossible to miss. Former king of Hawkins High, professional babysitter, and now reluctantly scooping ice cream, Steve wore confidence like armour. His smile came easy, his charm even easier. He pretended rejection didn't sting, that being left behind didn't hurt, that he didn't care whether people remembered him once they moved on. But beneath the hair and bravado was a boy terrified of becoming insignificant. Steve filled every space he entered. People loved him for it. They admired him. They expected him to shine. What they didn't expect was how quickly he noticed Abigail Henderson. How she lingered at the edges. How she understood him without asking questions. How she stayed. As Starcourt Mall becomes the epicentre of secrets, codes, and looming danger, Steve and Abigail are forced closer together - past teasing remarks and shared eye-rolls, past assumptions they'd made about each other, past the fear of being forgotten. ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ DON'T YOU (FORGET ABOUT ME) - simple minds To be remembered; to matter; to leave a mark that doesn't fade - "Do you ever worry about disappearing, Henderson?"
