Love Grows: Steve Harrington's Girl Next Door

"God, you're fucking pretty," he blurts.

"Funny," she utters. "Was gonna say the exact same thing about you."

Steve Harrington never really gave Rosemary much thought.

Why would he? She was just the girl next door. The weird one.

She was just the weird girl next door.

Until she wasn't. Until she grew up and aged like a fine wine.

I just wanted to write something cute.

Oneshot type fic that follows one of my Stranger Things OCs (NOT canon to my Flipped ST fic).

Idk I just always had this headcanon that Steve had this weird but cute neighbour that he grew up with and would eventually fall for.

Also always liked the idea of an adorable side-character that had more to her than meets the eye, and would join the main cast in S5.

Let me know what you think!
