Summary
Will Byers always knew he would never amount to much. He supposed his upbringing of constant poverty led him to that mindset. He and his brother Jonathan were similar in that way. After dropping out in middle school, he had taken a position at a car washing business to support their mother and Will himself, and Will wanted to do the same after graduating. Where he and his brother differed was what they did in their spare time. While Will painted and read, Jonathan was getting into street fights. Will tries his best to stay out of it. But, it can be a little bit difficult when his brother is the leader of one of the most feared gangs in the city, the Rooks.
Mike Wheeler had everything someone of the likes of Will Byers did not. He had a nice house to grow up into, a nuclear family, money for college, and a slew of girls waiting for him to take them out. However, even through all of this, he feels like he may collapse in on himself every time he breathes. He hates practically every company he keeps, he can't get himself to like his girlfriend, and he definitely shouldn't be looking at boys the way he does. Oh, and he somehow became associated with the Boulds, who have a long time rivalry with the Rooks. Just his luck.
