Ophelia's worst fear was being alone, turns out her and Billy Hargrove had that in common. Her broken demeanor, quiet nature, makes Billy infatuated with her. Trying to stray from her past, she has no room for another boy in her life. That is, until she realizes how that boy makes her feel. Billy Hargrove Fanfic Based on Stanger Things 2 & 3 © californialust 2022 EXTENDED SUMMARY: Ophelia Whitmore, the new girl. She had been okay with the title, especially if it meant she would be free of the burden her past had on her. She was a kind, sweet, and caring young girl, and she never deserved the treatment she got from her peers. It was soley based on one little mistake she had made on a night she thought was going to be the best day of her life. Losing all of her friends to the spread of the exaggerated rumor, left her all alone. One thing Ophelia feared the most, was being completely, and utterly alone. Since the death of her mother, she had always found herself with attachment issues. She always put others feelings before her own, unable to ever say no. When she meets Billy Hargrove, he's just another person that she can't say no to. His bad boy persona was the complete opposite of Ophelia, and that's what drew her to him. His constant sense for adventure, and getting her to do new things starts to bring her out of her shell, and she starts to feel like her old self again, maybe even a better version.

It is simply for fun.* Lorraine -Rainey- Lyon has always been the black sheep of the Lyon family. Detested by her mother, not as perfect as her brother, the unwanted child. She never fit in, and she never tried to. She always found herself in deep water, whether it was with her mother, her family lawyer, or the cops, she never cared how deep she'd go. -Resilience- was her middle name. When a kidnapping goes wrong, she's face to face with the unknown. And now, she knows too much. Gator Tillman, deputy in Stark County. Also the son of the town sheriff, Gator would do anything to win his father's approval. Murder, corruption, blackmail...none of it was out of the question if it meant his father would be proud. When he runs into Rainey Lyon-he didn't realize what he was in for. In more ways than one. Blood will be shed. And maybe, they won't make it out alive.

After fleeing a controlling relationship, you return to the remote cabin your grandfather left you outside Fargo, hoping for a quiet fresh start. Instead, old memories begin resurfacing-along with Gator Tillman, the boy who once knew you better than anyone.
