(at no point did i know where this was going sorry!)

being the oldest turnbow sibling meant upholding the families reputation your brother actively tried to ruin, being a babysitter for the sinclairs and trying to balance your grades.

it was all going well for a while, you were known as the queen of hawkins high as you were pretty and sweet and even after you and steve broke up he still fancied you. babysitting often involved you and erica since lucas was old enough to hang out at mikes leaving you to gossip and play dess up. your grades were sitting on strong passes.

then nancy wheeler started dating steve and will went missing in the space of a week.

now everyone was calling nancy the queen of hawkins high just because she was dating "king" steve a position you made and literally owned. as if it matters you and steve werent together anymore. babysitting was ten times harder since lucas was always trying to sneak out to "look for will" and made you feel guilty about stopping him sometimes going as far as to say interdimensional monsters were after him and his friends though you didnt believe him. your grades had plummeted from all the stress and worry for will and his brother jonathon who would tutor you sometimes before tests.

nevertheless you made sure to keep smiling, show up to every party and prove your reputation didnt matter to you (it did).
