Summary
After Vecna, nothing in Hawkins looks the same.
Joyce returns with Hopper, Steve’s heart shatters a little, and Robin decides she’s done watching him believe he’s unlovable.
They marry—not as a cover, not out of fear, but because they’re each other’s person.
And only after that choice comes the twist that binds their future even tighter.

Summary
“Steve!” Dustin hisses. “You’re literally Rapunzel!”
“I am not!”
“Yes, you are!”
“How can I be Rapunzel if I’m standing right here, dipshit?” Steve fires back. “I’ve been driving you shitheads around all week! My Dad’s an asshole, sure, but wouldn’t I be locked up in some-some tower right now if I were Rapunzel!”
“But there are locks,” Hopper interrupts. “On all your windows, your clothes, your door.” Rage claws at his throat, ready to roar and tear into Richard Harrington. “Lucas said there’s no handle on the inside of your room.” Who modifies a door to trap a child?
Steve stares, slack-jawed as if he hit him. The boy closes his eyes, hands running through his hair, and the room falls quiet. “Ok,” he says after a moment. “I know how it looks, but my Dad switches to a regular handle when they leave. I’m not exactly stuck. And he only locks the door when I’m grounded!”

Or
Steve’s father, while often away, is very controlling. Steve doesn’t see it, and everyone else worries.

And he's spent years working very hard to keep it that way, because the truth is the last thing he is, is normal.
No, Steve Harrington has a dark past he's desperate to escape, however that gets much harder when Will Byers goes missing and Steve just can’t shake the feeling that something is very wrong in Hawkins, something that's pointing straight to his past. But everything will be fine, right? All he has to do is pretend everything is normal.
Or, another lab experiment Steve story because I can’t get it out of my head, so I’m sharing it with everyone.

Summary
It's 1995, and the whole world has moved on from the Upside Down. Everyone except Steve, that is. He's still stuck in the past, stuck in his guilt about all the ways he failed, and most of all, he's still stuck in Hawkins.
Then he meets a sympathetic stranger and somehow finds himself waking up back in 1983. He doesn't know how he got there or even if he'll be able to stay, but he's going to do everything he can to fix his mistakes, starting with keeping Eddie Munson alive.

Summary
Steve Harrington was predictable. He was popular, rich, and people liked him, but that made him boring. He knew, just like everyone else knew, exactly what the rest of his life would look like. He’d graduate, go to some business school, get a job at his Dad’s company (where he would some day take over), settle down with a nice girl, get married, have two and a half kids and a dog, and he’d never amount to anything. This is a tale that has been told over and over again. This is a very old tale.
This is not the correct tale.
Upside Down Detected, Game Mode Unlocked!
Steve's life has suddenly become an RPG. Oh, joy.

The darkness listens intently to the traumatized boy with the weight of the world on his shoulders, it listens with patient ears and a thoughtful touch.
Steve wants, wants, wants.
And the darkness gives.++++
Steve Harrington goes back to 1981 and saves everyone.A/N: Hi bunnies! This is going to be a long fic so strap in. I will try to post every Friday, but I can't make any promises so please be patient with me. -Echo <3

Summary
Everything in Billy’s life changed the night of his dad’s first date with Susan. He was attacked and bitten by a monster on the beach, then he met Max. He’s slowly changing into a monster just like the one that bit him, and that would be terrifying if it wasn’t taking a backseat to the redheaded girl he can’t seem to get out of his head. She’s too young for him, she’s the daughter of his father’s girlfriend, and he’s never been any good for anybody, so she’ll probably only get hurt in the end. There are a lot of reasons why he should leave her alone… but he’s not going to.

Summary
When her mom remarries, Max moves with her into her step-dad's trailer in the middle of nowhere. At least the guy who lives next door is hot.
-
Skateboard abandoned by the door like she’d been told, Max crosses her arms over her chest and says, “I’m Max.”
He hums and drawls, “Max, huh? Weird name for a little girl.”
Max’s face screws up tighter, little, white teeth flashing.
“It’s short for Maxine, and I’m not a little girl, you jerk, I’m 16.”
Lifting his beer in a toast and nodding like he’s tipping a hat, he says with a grin, “Good to know. I’m Billy, by the way.”
“Haven’t known a Billy since I was like five,” she scoffs.
“Yea, well, it beats ‘William’ or ‘Will’ so.” Billy tips the aluminum can towards his mouth, throat bare. Max pointedly does not watch his Adam’s apple bob through a few swallows. When he pulls off with a satisfied gasp, Billy jerks his head to the couch again. “So you gonna sit or what? I don’t bite.”
His grin and wink imply otherwise.

Summary
He only saw Charles after the wedding from his door. Charles’s room is right across from Lando’s. It’s for Carlos’s convenience. Dividing your time and space between two omegas can be a hassle, you know. From the wide open door as Carlos left, he saw Charles watch Carlos go, his legs hanging from the bed’s edge. He just caught a glimpse, but the fresh bite, in all its glory: dried blood and aggressive swelling, was noticeable from a distance. Charles winced as he smiled at Carlos; he looked like he was in pain. But all he remembers thinking is, God, they were right. He’s devastatingly beautiful.

Summary
Lando has a secret. While others presented early in life, he has not. Everyone assumes he’s a beta. A dramatic beta. A fighting-for-the-championship beta. An insecure beta.
And that’s good, because Alphas are usually assholes and omegas just don’t make in in formula one. They just don’t.
But then he finishes another race, wins it in fact, and something is different. When he gets out of the car, he first thinks he might have accidentally peed himself. It happens.
He hasn’t. He has presented.
“Oscar, what are you doing?” He forces a stern tone in his voice, while all he wants to do is press into Oscar’s touch and sigh with relief.
“Sorry.” Oscar stays right where he is. “I had to check.”
“Check what?”
It’s then that Oscar takes a step back. He looks dazed, overwhelmed. “Lands. I think you’re in heat?”Bookmarked by bubblingfizz

Summary
"Saturdays mean Buck in the kitchen, humming like he’s the star of his own cooking show while flipping perfect pancakes. Sometimes they even look like Mickey Mouse or dinosaurs. His dad tries to make pancakes sometimes, but they come out funny-shaped, and Buck teases him about it while dad rolls his eyes, and Chris laughs so hard his stomach hurts."
Or, Christopher Diaz spends years slowly realizing something that feels obvious to him but apparently isn't to his dad--that not every kid gets a Buck.

Summary
“Oh, is that what you think, Harrington?” Billy’s voice was soft, velvet over razor-sharp rage. “Think you can bat your eyes and I’ll come beggin’ like a dog, lettin’ you lead me around by my goddamn knot?”
“What — no — I don’t—” Steve’s brain felt sluggish, stunned by the force of Billy’s full attention.
One corner of the Alpha’s mouth curled up in a half-smirk, almost a sneer. “Not so haughty now, are you, King Steve?”
“I — don’t call me that,” said Steve automatically, though it came out far weaker than he’d hoped.
“No?” Billy cocked his head like a dog, smirk spreading a little wider.
“Pretty sure I can call you whatever the fuck I want,” he breathed, gaze flashing blue and dangerous under lazy, half-closed lids. “And you’ll take it.”
