Summary
The truth is, Will wouldn't know what an actual normal person does, not really. The word normal has become a thing of the past, an outdated word that's been permanently torn from his vocabulary.
Will Byers hasn't known normal for years. Not since that damn spider bit him.
And just when Will thinks he's finally figured out this whole superhero life, here comes Mike Wheeler, ready to prove him wrong.

Summary
“Will Byers?”
Will glances around, as if there is another Will Byers in their vicinity. He manages a small smile. “Yeah, it’s- uh. It’s me.”
Mike rushes forward, and all he can think is holy shit, Will is alive, as he’s throwing his arms around the other boy and tugging him in for a crushing hug. It isn’t until Will is secure, nestled–maybe a bit stiffly–in his arms, that Mike starts crying.
“I thought you were dead,” Mike murmurs, muffled by Will’s jacket. He sniffles. “I thought- we- they told us you were dead.”
Or, Will was never found in S1, but survives in the Upside Down until 1987 due to his powers and connection with Vecna. Cue Mike, an ill-timed trip to the Upside Down, and a lot of feelings.
