Summary
When Pansy Parkinson finds herself with a baby on the way, a marriage contract torn to pieces, and abandoned by the lover that never truly loved her, she has no idea what to do. She's now the shame of her family and the favorite topic of conversation among the Pureblood gossips.
The last thing she expected was a letter from Neville Longbottom offering to marry her and raise the child as his own.
Leaving the excitement of London and Pureblood society behind for the quiet simplicity of a Yorkshire farm and quirky wizarding village is quite the culture shock. But it isn't just the change in scenery that surprises Pansy. Somehow the bullied boy she remembers from Hogwarts has grown into a handsome, confident man.
Could this become more than just a marriage of convenience? Can Pansy's broken heart be mended? Could Neville really be happy with a witch like her?
With a little magic anything is possible.

Summary
King Steve was just another rung in the social ladder. Billy had climbed it before, swiftly and easily. He knew who to talk to and what to do to make it so that he was on top. Only, Hawkins isn't shaping up to be anything like the previous places he'd lived. Steve Harrington was hiding something and it sounded like the government was involved. Not to mention the weird group of people he'd somehow fallen into cahoots with. He hadn't planned for any of this, least of all wide bambi eyes that seemed to see stright through his walls.
OR: I gave Billy real friends because I can and he's not sure what he's supposed to do with that or the fact that the cute boy he's supposed to be socially usurping is covering up multiple deaths.
