For The Girl Who Has Everything (I Bring You Love!) by anakinsync

Summary
Lucas Sinclair has two problems: the first one? His grade in the nuclear chemistry class he's taking isn't good, and for a 4.0 GPA average student like him? He needs that shit to go up. As soon as possible. He's able to juggle everything pretty well except this class seems to be the bane of his existence. Lucky for him? The professor has a teacher's assistant to help him!
The second problem he has? The teacher's assistant; Max Mayfield? Smoking hot. And a little intimidating.
He is as much pussy whipped with Max Mayfield as he was in desperate need of some help, so when he emails her one night on a Friday about the homework that’s due on Sunday at 11:59 pm with a boner that came about just by thinking of her when he read her email handle… he knew he was in far too deep. But he needs this grade as much as he needs Max in his bed, so he sucks it up and starts getting her help...
AKA... Lucas Sinclair sends Max Mayfield nudes via email when asking for help on the nuclear chemistry homework, hoping Max is into him. (Lucky for him? She is! Double lucky? She loves the photos!)

Summary
Months after El's vanishing act, Hawkins, Indiana, feels like a ghost town haunted by lingering shadows. For Lucas Sinclair, the scars run deeper than the Upside Down's tendrils. As "The Party" prepares to scatter across the country for college, Lucas finds himself adrift, his quiet resilience fraying under the weight of unspoken trauma and the harsh realities of growing up Black in 1990s America.
He's the unwavering rock for Max, guiding her through physical therapy, teaching her to drive, and loving her with a fierce devotion that borders on desperation. He's a dutiful son, a protective brother, but somewhere in the endless giving, Lucas is losing himself. The world sees his smile, assumes his strength, but beneath the surface, a storm rages—a yearning to scream, to be truly seen, to escape the town that reminds him daily he's not truly welcome.
Prepare for an emotional rollercoaster—intense, dramatic, funny, and deeply thought-provoking—as Lucas Sinclair steps out of the shadows and into his own powerful light.
