π§ When science meets the supernatural... and really great hair π§
Emma Henderson has enough problems without adding "save the world" to her to-do list. Between her shift at Hawkins Library, her endless pile of broken electronics, and making sure her little brother doesn't turn their garage into a crater, she's got no time for anything else.
Especially not Steve Harrington and his stupid perfect hair.
But something's wrong in Hawkins. Her radios are picking up Russian broadcasts. Her equipment's going haywire. And then Dustin brings home a creature that definitely wasn't covered in AP Biology.
Now Emma's trapped in a government conspiracy with only:
β€ A modified Walkman
β€ Some half-broken tools
β€ One Steve "The Hair" Harrington
β€ His nail-covered bat
β€ Way too much cologne
She's a science genius with trust issues and a sarcastic streak wider than the Mississippi.
He's the former King of Hawkins High who can't tell a circuit board from a cereal box.
They're the last people who should be investigating interdimensional monsters together.
But as shadow creatures emerge and secret tunnels appear under their tiny town, Emma's starting to realize that some equations need an unexpected variable.
Even if that variable uses too much Farrah Fawcett hairspray.

Shared Trauma (Steve Harrington)
Emilie Henderson was damaged. Everyone knew what happened to her. Or at least, they knew enough. When she was thirteen she went camping with her father and they both went missing for nearly two weeks until Emilie was found barely alive with deep wounds from an unknown origin and her father was found with his eyes caved in and his bones cracked. She was in a coma for thirteen weeks when she came back she had no memory of what happened. Doctors said the trauma was so great that the young girl blocked it out. But ever since then, she kept having nightmares of a place. Like this world but cold and dark. She lived with the Byers as she became friends with Jonathan and was like a daughter to Joyce until her brother and mother were able to move to Hawkins with her due to complications. She's now known at the traumatized girl of Hawkins High with the freak brother, yet somehow she is Steve "The Hair" Harrington's best friend albeit their relationship has gotten rocky. She deals with normal things along with her nightmares and trauma-school, bullies, insecurities, and being in love with her best friend. But when Will Byers goes missing and odd occurrences start happening, Emilie's memories start coming back. *Under going changes*

"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 β s2 β s3 β s4 in progress... #2 in steveharringtonxreader #2 in dustinhenderson #1 in hawkinsindiana started : 6.15.22 finished : _._._
A Chemical Reaction Called Love (Steve Harrington x Fem!Reader)
Being the daughter of Hawkins Middle School Science teacher, Scott Clarke, has its perks, constantly having to explain things to 'King' Steve Harrington wasn't necessarily one of them but it was something you had gotten used to, he might not be the brightest guy but at least he tried, and you appreciated that. You had big plans for the future, but they might be forced to change thanks to a phone call... This fanfic will start from Season 1 of Stranger Things, so all the respective rights go to the Duffer Brothers and other writers, but the character of Y/n, as well as the non-canon storyline change rights, goes to me. Also, English isn't my first language so feel free to let me know if I ever make a spelling or grammar mistake. -Sensitive topics might be brought up so reader discretion is advised -Obviously Stranger Things spoilers -Reader uses she/her pronouns Ratings: #1 in steveharrington #1 in steveharringtonfafic #1 in steveharringtonxreader #1 in strangerthings1
