Summary
In the aftermath of the battle at Starcourt Billy is left in a coma and Heather is found relatively unharmed. Max spends the rest of her summer by her stepbrother’s side, believing that he will wake up one day. Strangely, Will becomes her one steadfast companion. But Billy waking up is just the beginning of this story…
This story will bounce around to focus on different pairings which I will note beside the chapter titles. The main ones being Max/Will, Billy/Steve and Heather/Robin. With moments of El/Mike and Joyce/Hopper. It’s also heavy on Billy and Heather’s friendship and how being flayed has changed their relationship.

Summary
If he’s being honest, he’s never been really good at controlling himself. It bleeds out of him. When he’s too loud. Obnoxious. Mean. Disrespectful. He’s been told he takes too much energy. Always been told that he sucks the life out of people—he bottles it all up; carries it like a weight; revels in the suffering. It’s been getting worse too, since before they left California…
A Stranger Things AU—Harringrove
Billy has powers, and he has no clue. Chapter 1 is a flashback, and chapter 2 picks up at S2E9. The rest of this fic changes the story and leads up to the events of S3, and maybe beyond.

Summary
Billy Hargrove didn’t believe in love at first sight, or love at all for that matter. The only person who he thought he could trust to love him abandoned him, leaving him to the mercy of his fathers’ anger. How could he believe anyone could love him when his own mother left him behind.
So no, Billy didn’t believe in love. Love was just a word people used to get someone attached and then just rip it from their hands. But what happens when his eyes land on Daisy Henderson? Will Billy take the chance? -

Summary
What if Billy had driven to the junk yard instead? What if he'd been given the opportunity to actually protect Max? What if no one had to die because Suzie got over herself and didn't make Dustin sing? What if someone had cared enough about Billy to notice something wrong sooner? What if Bob hadn't become briefly mesmerized by Joyce and had made it out of the lab in time? Ongoing work

Summary
Post S3. It's been over two months since the Battle of Starcourt. Billy Hargrove survived, but he's not sure he should have. Scarred in body and mind, he has no idea who he is anymore. He spends his days drinking and fighting until Neil, incensed by his son's behavior, throws him out of the house.
Hopper and El come to the rescue, taking Billy home to live with them. Their compassion is unnerving... and exactly what he needed. However, as he adjusts to his newfound "family," he realizes something isn't right. He still feels the Shadow's call, urging him to kill.
Little does he know the Shadow doesn't need him to obey. It has another piece on the board, waiting to strike.

Summary
'She started spending extra hours at the library with Nancy and sometimes even Byers, when he wasn’t working. She started sleeping with her bat by her bed, the nails hidden by the skirt of her night table, and when a storm got bad and the lights began to flicker, she yanked the cleaver from the butcher’s block in the kitchen and slept with it under her pillow.
She slept restlessly, but she slept.'Stevie Harrington is on a self-improvement kick.
Figures, the evil forces from another dimension just have to come back and fuck it all up for her.
That, and Billy Hargrove. -

Summary
Steve was certain that these kids were at once the bravest and most reckless people he had ever met. When the proverbial and literal dust settled after the Gate was closed, Steve found himself with the expected amount of new and old night terrors and unexpected new friendships with a bunch of brave, reckless middle-schoolers.
Hawkins carried on like before, unaware of the pieces left to be picked up and the bigger, darker secrets once again hidden away from them. And amongst it all, Billy found himself forced to take a good long look at himself.

Summary
"He’d tried not to worry all week, really - but telling Steve not to labor over situations until his luxurious hair turned gray and his fingernails were chewed to the bone was like telling a baby it couldn’t cry - it was impossible.
Old habits die hard, and some never die at all, and whether that be referring to the drinking or the drugs or the worrying, Steve didn’t know."
OR
Steve's just slightly insecure about wherever him and Billy stand, and he can't do a single thing without wanting - needing - something illegal and powdery white flowing through his veins, and now lives are at stake with a mysterious monster lurking around every corner. Maybe this could be one of his best summers yet, without his abusive parents berating him every chance they got, but not everything in Hawkins is as it seems.

Summary
When Billy comes tumbling head-over-ass from the depths of Steve’s swimming pool nearly three fucking years after Max had thrown his ashes into the ocean, Steve is playing blackjack and betting Family Video shifts with Robin on the patio. He loses, obviously—though he was already eating shit and getting every Friday shift before Hargrove decided to scare the fucking bejeezus out of him.
Spring Break turns into a Goddamn mess after that. There’s haunted houses and mental asylums and alternate realities. There’s Hop popping through a similar tear in space-time with a fucking flamethrower and a crewcut straight out of a Russian gulag.
New monsters come rushing through the cracks. More evil bastards come circling the carnage like flies. The killers die. Friends die.
And this new Billy, somehow, makes it out the other side to see winter.

Summary
One green flash, and the next thing Harry sees is a town sign: Welcome to Hawkins. Consequently, the more she adapts to her climate, the more suspicious she becomes of the town activity, particularly a little girl with wide eyes and a number tattooed onto her wrist.
Something must be done to fix this endlessly strange town. She just needs those two boys to stop distracting her.

Summary
Blood. There was so much blood. Between the cold chilled weather, the sickening copper odor the filled his nostrils and the broken bones that barely held his body together, had he been the wiser, Steve would have instantly connected the Upside Down to his growing list of injuries.
Expect this time, he and the rest of the party learn his battered state was caused by monsters that have never played refuge to the Upside Down.
And to add to it? Billy unexpectedly finds himself in the middle of it all.

Summary
Mentions of past child abuse. Occasional: manhandling, mild slurs. ***WARNING: CH 25 "Goober" Contains Graphic Scenes of Abuse***
Ch 1 - 2 years after S2. Susan & Neil gone, Max & Billy on their own with the help of Hopper. Very long - was originally stand alone.
Ch 2 - 8 1 year after Ch 1. Max & Billy working things out. Steve introduces Billy to monster hunting. Max pushes him to embrace his sexuality, but it's slow & relatively tame (because 80s & writing graphic sex isn't my thing). Hawkins gang present & active.
Ch 9 - epilogue. Max's high school graduation. Billy sucks at emotions. Steve is a champ. Fluffy ending.
***This is the end of the completed story. The following Chapters are add ons & requests:
High School Max (aka really angsty): Ch 11 - 18
College Max: Ch 19 - 21
Adults with adorable (if I do say so, myself), precocious OC: Ch 22 - 28
