George and Nicole Harper had never had an easy life. From one set of divorced parents to another, these half siblings have had it tough. Ever since their mother, Naomi, split from George's father and forced them to move from England back to her home town of Hawkins, Indiana, their life had gone from bad to worse. But Nick is determined to give her younger brother the life she never had and is prepared to work her butt off to provide for him (seeing as their absent mum won't). But Nick never signed up for missing children, demogorgon attacks and having to save the world. Just as George had started to make friends, everything fell apart. Now George will do everything he can to save his friend, even if it means risking his own life. Much to the dismay of his overprotective older sister. Nick had always been protective of her brother, but how can she protect him now? AN: This will end up being a Steve x OC fic but I don't want to rush his character arch (which was so well done in the series). I'm also not going to focus on romantic relationships as I think it's important to explore familial love and relationships too (plus George is like 12 and I can't be doing with people shipping 12 year olds).

Sequel to Jeopardy Last year, Nick said the last thing she ever thought she'd say to Steve Harrington: "Now this is all over, you and I can go our separate ways. We never have to see each other again." And she really thought she meant it. After everything that had happened last year, Nick was glad to put it behind her and get to work. She needed to save as much as possible in order to pay the mortgage since her mother had left them in Hawkins. George was happy his friend was back and things had gone back to normal. He just wanted to get through middle school without any of his friends dying. But when Will's PTSD episodes get worse and worse and a strange monster resurfaces, George's worst nightmare of losing his friend starts to look like it might be coming true. And then is confirmed when Dustin's new pet turns out to be a Demogorgon...which he decided to keep. As if the reappearance of monsters from the upside down isn't bad enough, both George and Nick have something far, far worse to deal with: teenage drama.
