Hidden behind locked doors and iron rules, Henry Creel has spent his life inside Hawkins Lab - not by choice, but by design. Once the first child molded by Dr. Brenner's experiments, he grew into a silent protector for the generations of gifted children who came after him, bearing the weight of a life he never chose. He thought he understood the world: pain, obedience, isolation. Until Marlena Brenner, the daughter of the man who made him, returned to the lab - and changed everything. Where others saw a weapon, Marlena saw a man. She offered him kindness with no demands, love with no conditions. Slowly, Henry began to believe he could be something more than what the lab made him. Their stolen kisses, lingering touches, and tentative confessions grew into something fierce and real. But freedom always has a price. When a tragedy rips through the lab, taking Marlena's father and nearly Marlena herself, Henry is faced with the unimaginable terror of losing the only light in his dark world. As Marlena fights her way back from the brink, she refuses to rebuild what was broken. Instead, she dreams bigger: creating a place where gifted children can live without fear - a real home, filled with laughter, learning, and choice. A future Henry never dared to imagine. Now, surrounded by the children they vow to protect, Henry and Marlena must navigate first love, aching grief, and a healing neither of them thought possible. Together, they will build not just a sanctuary - but a family. A story of survival, redemption, and an extraordinary love born in the most unlikely of places, Brenners daughter is a heart-wrenching, breathtaking journey toward freedom, hope, and the simple, saving power of being seen.

1985. Hawkins Indiana. You were such an upgraded person from where you used to be. A better mind. a more controlled storage of thoughts. A solid barrier on emotions. No longer grasping handholds in attempt to hang on to sanity, no longer feeling pairs of eyes on you in badly-hidden caution. No longer laying your fate in their hands. Far from normal is everything around you, unfolding superficial disasters with their horrifying unusual pull. A pull with a direct connection to your mind, that you led yourself to believe you had well under control. 1986. Maybe upgraded person wasn't the right pair of words. Maybe, there isn't a word for it. Not that you know of. But he does. 001. Peter Ballard. unusual, at times. slightly unnerving. the epitome of what you believed the definition of secret to be. and so, very, tempting. "Your lies feed into lust, prying at every ounce of control I've ever reigned to keep, tearing that control cleanly apart." ... "Let every word that falls from your mouth then, be a lie." I do not claim to own any of these characters! or any song lyrics that I may add. All rights go to Stranger Things, and the Duffer Brothers. The story however, comes completely from my own imagination.

An academic rival to lovers story! Theodore Nott x oc ⋆｡°✩ Astrea Black, the daughter of Andromeda Black, cousin to Draco Malfoy. She's your typical nose-stuck-in-a-book goody-two-shoes, but just like any typical Slytherin, she has a major soft spot for causing trouble and partying. ⋆⭒˚｡⋆₊ ⊹ Theodore Nott, the stereotypical bad boy Slytherin with a knack for fighting who all the girls in his grade swooned for. Though troublesome, Theo buried his head into his studies due to his determination to beat one specific classmate who has always excelled better than him in every class they shared. ⋆｡°✩ Astrea Black slowly falls for Theodore Notts evenly placed dimples, scattered freckles, deep eyes, and ruffled, messy hair over time without realizing, but one night signifies that he had felt the same for her; if not stronger..... "And even though all I want to do is mope about my own miserable life tragedies, somehow all that can cross my mind is you." ⋆｡°✩ I do not own Harry Potter or ANY of the characters in this story besides Astrea Black! |Theodore Nott x OC| |Universe: Harry Potter| |Warnings: Mature content and language.

thanatophobia - the intense fear of death or the dying process. >< History is always repeating itself. One thing that will always be correct is that history will always repeat, like a loop, a vicious circle that never, ever ends. Unfortunate for the souls caught up in history's tangling branches, even more unfortunate for the ones that are yet to be roped in. Many people say to leave the past in the past, it is what it is, right? Not for Nova Black, not for her parents. The past is very much the present and the future. The past will continuously come back to remind them of what them and so many others have endured over the years. With dark wizards are large again and her cousin being the most hated boy in the wizarding world, Nova Black is on for a long fourth year at Hogwarts. Meeting Theodore Nott on the Hogwarts Express probably won't make it much easier. >< In which history, yet again, repeats itself and sweet Nova Black finds herself oddly infatuated with a Slytherin boy. >< ⚠️contains violence, death, strong language, sex, drug/alcohol misuse and other mature themes. >< harry potter series 4-7, 1994-1998 theodore nott x fem!oc BOOK 1 - PHILOPHOBIA BOOK 2 - ATYCHIPHOBIA BOOK 3 - THANATOPHOBIA ><

A fake dating, best friend's brother story with Theodore Nott. Sophia Malfoy is starting 5th year at Hogwarts with her best friend; Alexa Nott who also happens to be the sister of the well-known playboy Theodore Nott. Sophia and Theodore may be friends but after a drunk kiss they may have to become more, but it can't be real. And nobody can find out. "Sophia, truth or dare?" Adrian says, leaning in to hear my answer. "Uh.. dare," I shrug. His smile erupts into a grin. "I dare you to kiss Theodore." My eyes widen. I couldn't break our rules-not after I was the one that had placed them. I leaned into Theo's lips, giving him a short, awkward peck. Everyone glanced at each other as if something was wrong between me and Theo. I started panicking when suddenly I felt his lips crash into mine. By the way, I'm just doing this for fun. I like writing as a hobby but I'm not good at it so don't raise your expectations.

IN WHICH Coriolanus and Rose were friends, a long time ago, before life has made them into the heinous, desperate and sinful creatures that they are now. Now, he's on the track to rule all of Panem and she is an outcast. Locked in district's military bases for most of her life, disallowed an entry into society and unable to create personal collections, if Rose were to die, she's fairly certain no one would lay a flower on her grave. The issue of her father's heritage made her a nuisance. If not for her mother's Capitol blood, she'd be hanged or imprisoned. Instead, after her father's trial and subsequent execution, she was raised under Capitol's tutelage. Now, having spend years of "paying her dues" in the districts, she is finally admitted to the University. A chance is put before her: prove her worth as a Panem citizen, or stay a nobody. But the proposition is more of a trap than an opportunity and when Coriolanus Snow, the one good memory from her childhood, appears in the halls, memories of her past sins start to bother more than ever. Coriolanus, despite his recently gained status and power, cannot seem to forget the events of last spring that haunt his dreams, either. A murderer and a killer, childhood friends, and two players in a game bigger than themselves - or, perhaps, simply two people who, more than anything, long for someone to tell them they're not alone.
