I do not own anything from stranger things! All the rights belong to Netflix and the duffer brothers. Y/n is the only thing I'm adding.
*HEAVY EDITING IN PROGRESS*
In me rereading this I saw how much I disliked how I originally wrote it so the editing process has made this story very different. I also wrote it when I was 12-13 so it really needed an update thank you for being patient with me on this :)

Bound by Shadows | Will Byers x Reader (Fem)
Some memories can't be buried. Some connections can't be broken. Y/N doesn't remember much before Hawkins - just flashes of something darker. But when strange things start happening around her, and an old shadow begins to stir beneath the town, she finds herself pulled into a world she never asked to be part of. Then there's Will Byers - quiet, kind, and haunted. Somehow, he's the only one who seems to understand what she's going through. And maybe, just maybe, she understands him too. Together, they'll uncover secrets neither of them saw coming - about their town, themselves, and the invisible thread tying them together. ------------------------------- Will byers x Fem reader (slow burn!!) Disclaimer: All characters, settings, and plot elements belong to the Duffer Brothers and the creators of Stranger Things, with the exception of the original character Y/N and her family.

Stranger Things x Female Reader
Welcome to Hawkins, Indiana! (This is a Stranger Things x Female Reader with you thrown in the mix. This is only season 1, so only little romance is involved with the kids. It will be a Mike x Female reader, but eventually things will be switching up!) **DISCLAIMER: I don't own Stranger Things, nor the characters/plot!!** *The only thing I DO own is (Y/n) and any interaction with (Y/n) are all my ideas* **ITS SUPER CLOSE TO THE SERIES. (I understand this is going to be scene for scene, but I am the writer, and this is what I enjoy)** You woke up one day in the adoption center with fuzzy memory. You can only remember bits and pieces of what happened when you got to the adoption center. However, when you woke up, you saw a boy looking at you curiously with a woman who seems to be his mother. His hair was super curly, and when he smiled, you realized he had missing teeth, and he dressed in the 80s. They adopted you, and your name is (Y/n) Henderson. You befriend Dustin Henderson, age 13, and you're 12. You go to Hawkins Middle school. It took a while for you to settle in and finally talk. They provided you a house with fresh clothes, food, and treated you like their own. You also befriend Mike Wheeler, Will Byers, and Lucas Sinclair and join their DnD group. Things start to get a little weird after Will disappears, and now you're sucked into an investigation with your friends, hoping to find what memory you've lost.Complete![❝ 𝐈 𝐑𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐘𝐨𝐮, ❞ | ʷⁱˡˡ ᵇʸᵉʳˢ ˣ ʳᵉᵃᵈᵉʳ [2] 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐔𝐄𝐃](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/317983811-256-k223521.jpg)
