Max has been feeling really odd around her best friend, El. She loves her more than she's ever loved anyone or anything, ever- as a friend, of course. These feelings are crushing Max to pieces, and she doesn't know what to do about it. *(Guys, they're not actually just going to be friends. They obviously like each other, they're gonna be soft lesbians, okay? Okay.) !!MAJOR S3 SPOILERS!! ALSO: HUUUGE TW ON THIS STORY. i'm mentally ill as hell i can't just write a happy story 😌 i've included tws before all of the chapters that i think need them, but if there's any chapter that you think should have another tw PLEASE let me know. (This Fanfiction takes place after season three, but Eleven and Will still live in Hawkins. Hopper is still dead, as is Billy. Eleven lives with Will and Joyce. The Party still hangs out; they are as close as ever.) (There is also gonna be some Byler, but not whole chapters or anything like that)

(COMPLETED) #2 IN ELMAX!!! <3 a little elmax story idk what to put in the description lol sorry:/

𝐞.𝐡. + 𝐦.𝐦. "this girl is my girlfriend." ✧ in which two girls pretend to be a couple to get an ex boyfriend jealous. but of course it's just an act.

(also on ao3) ♡ el hopper / max mayfield ♡ 1985 🌈 𝓈𝓁𝑒𝑒𝓅𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓇𝓈 𝒾𝓃 𝓂𝓎 𝒷𝑒𝒹, 𝑜𝒽 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝒽 🌈 𝒶𝓉 𝓁𝑒𝒶𝓈𝓉 𝒾 𝑔𝑜𝓉 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒾𝓃 𝓂𝓎 𝒽𝑒𝒶𝒹 ฺ ✿ฺ。 ✿ฺ ✿ฺ。 ✿ฺฺ ✿ฺ。 ✿ฺ ✿ฺ。 ✿ฺฺ ✿ฺ。 teenage girls el and max are forming a quickly tightening bond. max's supposedly shameful desperation for an alternate type of relationship between them forms just as quickly, and even more earth shatteringly. she's torn between passion and fear. what would el, their friend group or max's family think? what about the world as a whole? in hawkins, indiana, at least, it seemed that the world solely consisted of close minded parents, humid summers, youthful teasing and a flashy shopping mall. most of all, it often felt to max like the most immensely frustrating aspect of the world were her own new flustered feelings and unwavering guilt. the varying complications within max and el's friend group and within hawkins itself lurk just as timid amongst everything. ( slow burn, no upside down/powers; elevens name is just el; takes place right after they became friends but that happened sooner in the summer; hopper is el's adoptive dad; her biological dad is martin brenner who's in prison for abusing her, and her mom isn't alive; there's confusion, angst, a little fluff, lowkey slowburn and excessive gay panic )

Max is dating Lucas in till Lucas cheats on her with someone the whole party let in as if it was nothing but it's now the reason the party almost splits up

Yes I know they didn't have texting back then I just have no inspiration and we're probably gonna have to wait until 2019 for S3. I've done something like this before. This is NOT a sequel to that book.
