Summary
Carlton was really getting sick of the name Mike.
From sitting down in that first art class in September and first seeing the pale boy with big sad eyes, Carlton knew he was smitten. He and Will had their first conversation that same class, their first date in December, and their first kiss that same day. The first time Carlton heard the name “Mike” was their second date in early January.
OR;
Hopper never finds Mike in time for his graduation because at that point he was already dead at the bottom of the quarry. Throughout Carlton's relationship with Will Byers, he keeps hearing of a childhood best friend named Mike, but he doesn't know exactly who he is until he has a weekend trip with Will to his home town in early April.

Summary
Nancy could never escape him.
She saw his dark hair when walking down the street, his eyes in her neighbour’s sons, his cheek bones in her own face when she looked in the mirror. Nancy saw his photo, tens of them, piled up like a crude imitation of grief on the table next to her fathers La-Z-boy. She was staring at them now and could swear that little five-year-old Mike’s eyes were staring back at her. He looked innocent in that photo. Happy. But really, who is she to make that assumption? She didn’t even realise when her baby brother wanted to kill himself.
OR: Mike kills himself before graduation. Will, Carlton and Mike’s family have a dinner on April 7th
