In Hawkins, everyone knows Calliope Carmichael.
The girl with the perfect smile. The big white house. The polished manners and effortless grace. She's kind, popular, and exactly who she's expected to be. What no one sees is how hard she works to stay that way.
When strange things begin happening in Hawkins, Callie does what she's always done best-she helps. She notices. She stays. Armed with quiet intelligence, unexpected bravery, and a pair of antique swords hanging in her family's foyer, Callie finds herself drawn into a fight she never asked for... and a friendship she never planned.
Steve Harrington has always been the guy everyone relies on-the protector, the babysitter, the one who takes the hits and keeps going. But as monsters close in and the people around him move on, it's Callie who sees the cracks he hides behind a smile. And somehow, without meaning to, they become each other's safe place.
This is a slow-burn love story set against the chaos of the Upside Down-about being seen, choosing who you want to be, and finding home in the person who stays.
Because sometimes, the quietest hearts change everything.

Under Pressure - a Stranger Things Story
Hawkins was already breaking before she arrived. When Sabrina Hargrove moves to Hawkins, Indiana, she expects a fresh start-not strange disappearances, government secrets, or a growing hum beneath her skin that feels a lot like electricity. As monsters crawl out of the dark and the town begins to fracture, Sabrina is forced to confront the truth she's been hiding for years: her power isn't going away. And neither is the danger. Caught between a group of reckless kids, a town on the brink of collapse, and a boy with a nail bat and far too much bravery for his own good, Sabrina learns that survival in Hawkins isn't about being fearless-it's about standing your ground when everything inside you is screaming to run. Because when the pressure builds, something has to give. And in Hawkins? It always does. *plot changes have been made to incorporate the OC into the story, basically AU, but still canon for the most part Season Two.....Complete Season Three......Complete Season Four.....Complete Season Five....CompleteComplete

In Hawkins High, everyone already thinks they're inevitable. King Steve 'The hair' Harrington and the quiet, too-sweet-to-say-no girl everyone adores. Elizabeth 'Your Highness' Henderson. The golden couple that hasn't even happened yet. They're both popular. They both know it. But while Steve thrives in the spotlight, she's always been better at smiling softly and staying out of drama. Between hallway rumors, shared glances, and monsters creeping in from the Upside Down, strangers turn into something dangerously real. And as Hawkins starts to fracture, so does the careful distance she's kept from him. After all, it's one thing for everyone to root for you to get together. It's another thing to actually fall.
