Sequel to Fade Into You by californialust
If only there was a handbook on how to deal with the death of your soulmate. Lia Whitmore would be first in line to buy.

Stranger Things Fanfic
Based on Stanger Things 4

EXTENDED SUMMARY:

Lia Whitmore has always been a master of deception. She'd perfected the art of "faking it 'til you make it," slipping into her cheerleading uniform every morning and greeting the world with a bright, flawless smile. 

Each day feels like a performance, with Lia playing the role of the happy, carefree girl everyone expects her to be. The reality is that she's suffocating in her own skin, trapped in a life she feels she has no control over.

But to everyone else, she's the picture of perfection. Popular, confident, and seemingly unstoppable. But beneath the surface, the truth is far darker. 

The girl inside, the one desperate for authenticity and freedom, is fighting to break through, but the walls she's built are strong. No one knows just how much she's struggling.All Rights Reserved

Fade Into You by californialust

Ophelia's worst fear was being alone, turns out her and Billy Hargrove had that in common. Her broken demeanor, quiet nature, makes Billy infatuated with her. Trying to stray from her past, she has no room for another boy in her life. That is, until she realizes how that boy makes her feel. Billy Hargrove Fanfic Based on Stanger Things 2 & 3 © californialust 2022 EXTENDED SUMMARY: Ophelia Whitmore, the new girl. She had been okay with the title, especially if it meant she would be free of the burden her past had on her. She was a kind, sweet, and caring young girl, and she never deserved the treatment she got from her peers. It was soley based on one little mistake she had made on a night she thought was going to be the best day of her life. Losing all of her friends to the spread of the exaggerated rumor, left her all alone. One thing Ophelia feared the most, was being completely, and utterly alone. Since the death of her mother, she had always found herself with attachment issues. She always put others feelings before her own, unable to ever say no. When she meets Billy Hargrove, he's just another person that she can't say no to. His bad boy persona was the complete opposite of Ophelia, and that's what drew her to him. His constant sense for adventure, and getting her to do new things starts to bring her out of her shell, and she starts to feel like her old self again, maybe even a better version.
