For Fallon Hopper, being Jim Hopper's daughter means living with a curfew, a reputation, and a town that watches your every move. It means knowing how to handle a shotgun before you can drive. Enter Steve "The Hair" Harrington - King of Hawkins High, becomes a babysitter-in-chief, and professional pain in her ass. Fallon grew up on war stories and loaded weapons. She knows the woods don't whisper - they warn. She knows the Upside Down never really closes. And she knows better than to trust Steve Harrington. Steve Harrington, who smiles like nothing haunts him. Steve Harrington, who almost died saving the town. Steve Harrington, who looks at her like he sees something worth fighting for. They've never agreed on anything. Not on strategy. Not on loyalty. Not on what it means to survive Hawkins. He thinks she's reckless. She thinks he's reckless with his heart. And every argument between them feels like striking a match in a room filled with gasoline. But when a new horror tears its way into Hawkins - something that doesn't just hunt bodies but feeds on guilt, grief, and buried secrets - it chooses it's targets carefully. It chooses her. As the town fractures and the line between this world and the next thins, Steve refuses to let her face it alone. Even if she pushes him away. Even if her father would rather lock Steve in a cell than let him stand at her side. Because this time, the monster doesn't want the world. It wants her mind. Her memories. Her pain. But what the monster doesn't know, is Steve Harrington wanted it from her first.

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?
