The town of Hawkins was insignificant at best, which made it the perfect place for darkness to thrive unnoticed. It grew in the shadows, crawling into every corner of the town until it had taken hold. By the time the residents of Hawkins took notice, it was too late. The darkness struck, and it changed Juliet Byers life. For better and for worse.

HONEY HONEY | s. harrington
HONEY KLINE wasn't supposed to care. Not when Will Byers vanished. Not when the random sophomore, Barb, disappeared. Not when Steve Harrington, the boy she loathed on principle, started showing up in all the wrong places at all the wrong times, usually looking irritatingly good and far too concerned. But Hawkins, Indiana had a way of pulling you in. Monsters, cover-ups, flickering lights, secret labs... and a gnawing guilt that maybe, just maybe, Honey saw the creature that started it all...and said nothing. Now she's knee-deep in government lies, haunted by what she knows and what she can't say, tangled in a mess of grief, secrets, and unresolved feelings for the last boy she should be thinking about. As the town spirals and the truth claws its way to the surface, Honey is forced to confront what she saw, what she's willing to fight for, and what she's terrified to feel. Because somewhere between champagne birthdays and blood-soaked swords, she might be falling for Steve Harrington..and that was never part of the plan.
All my Loving
Michelle Robinson was never particularly a fan of Steve Harrington, especially after he begun dating her best friend and forced his way into her day to day life. However, it seemed as if the more she tried to hate him and stay away, the closer they became. FemOC x Steve Harrington Will follow seasons 1-5 (All rights go to Netflix for the stranger things series except for my original characters and storylines) (Credit to the amazing @milasteeleshearts for the gorgeous cover)

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
