Fly Me To The Moon (steve harrington x reader) (Under Hiatus, to be updated soon
steve harrington x FEM! reader all rights go to the duffer brothers for the main story (along with the script) and characters. I'm just some silly person who thinks writing is fun. Y/n, her story and such, is the only person in this fic who belongs to me. this will be updated when season 5 comes out, as the plot points in this book will be determined on how s5 turns out! in the meantime feel free to enjoy my story and i'll update it when the last season comes out, so for now, this book will be marked as complete (even though it isn't yet) :) "Steve Harrington you are a complete and utter idiot and doofus." "Hey but at least I'm your doofus, doofus." .... Y/N is Dustin Hendersons cousin, as well as the most treasured party member among the group consisting of Mike, Dustin, Will, and Lucas. When Will goes missing, you vow yourself that you will find him, no matter the cost. Little do you know that the cost may be putting aside your petty dislike towards Steve 'The King' Harrington in order to find him. Maybe developing a small crush towards him throughout your adventures and shared trauma while you're at it. ..... slow burn. SLOW. BURN. the slowest of burns you've EVER seen. ... maybe not. but still very slow burn, you won't fall in love at first sight that's for sure. just expect one helluva ride ;) s1 ✅ s2 ✅ s3 ✅ s4 in progress... #2 in steveharringtonxreader #2 in dustinhenderson #1 in hawkinsindiana started : 6.15.22 finished : _._._Complete
Surrender // Steve Harrington x Reader
She didn't know any better. Years of being raised by the evil entity that was once Henry Creel skewed her view of the world she once lived in. When Y/N is sent by him from the Upside Down to infiltrate those that so tediously continue to thwart his plans, she ends up finding something with someone that she never could have expected. Will she betray the one who raised her, who helped her escape that horrific lab? Or will she help him burn it all to the ground? One thing was for sure. There was only one thing that might change her mind... She just doesn't doesn't even know he exists... Yet. ( Set from the beginning of S4 once flashbacks cease but reader has been part of prior Vecna plans. Reader is over 18/older than El to fit with Steve without it being weird and has powers; is 002 in this story so assume the bullies in the show were 003 upwards. Long-ish intro with flashbacks to try and make it make sense lmfao but only a few chapters. Please read TW's before reading and let me know if there's anything I missed. TW: Violence, brainwashing, death, both mental and physical abuse, manipulation, smut in later chapters, fem!Reader, angst )Complete
Turn me Upside Down
(Discontinued) Moving to Hawkins was not your decision and yet here you were. Stuck being the new kid is awkward for everyone especially when you would be moving into your second year of high school. Making friends was the least of your worries when you get ripped into several interesting babysitting gigs that get you into more trouble than you signed up for. Even in life or death situations people still decide to be dumbasses and fail to communicate at any level. Honestly, you're just hoping to graduate.Complete

"𝑩𝒆𝒂𝒖𝒕𝒚 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒔 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒇 𝒊𝒕'𝒔 𝒓𝒐𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒏 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆." ~ She's beautiful on the outside but on the inside, there's nothing that's considered beautiful. On the inside, it's rotten, cruel and vile. That's the word on the street in Hawkins, Indiana. When moving into a town some people get warm smiles and greetings. But that's not what Max Mayfield got, she got the exact opposite. What she got was a warning, a warning about her neighbor. Danielle Crowley... "Whatever you do, stay away from that menace" And she did, she stayed away and observed. There was nothing weird about the so-called "Menace of Hawkins" besides the fact that everyone avoided her like the plague, afraid that if they breathed the same air as the blonde they'd get infected. So, yes Max stayed away. But no one listens forever. (max mayfield x female!oc) [season 1- season 4] Season 1- ✅ Season 2- ✅ Season 3- ✅ Season 4- writing
