Summary
"Can I see it?" Mike exclaimed, already moving before Will quickly stopped him.
"No! I want it to be a surprise." Will smiled, crossing his arms and giggling at Mike's frown. "Painting won't take too long, don't be impatient."
Mike sighed at this, slightly slouching in his seat. "It feels like it's already been hours."

“I didn’t think I'd suck this bad,” Michelle joked, slightly turning her head to smile at Max.
Max gently squeezed the wrist she was holding onto. “Its okay,” she said quietly. “You're doing good, especially since it's your first time. Plus, if it means I get to potentially spend more time with you by dragging you to skating sessions, why would I complain?” She smiled as she spoke, keeping her gaze forward as they approached the end of the parking lot.

"We weren't sure if you were gonna make it to class today and Daniel wanted to sit next to his friend, so I let him sit there just for this since it's partner work. There's a seat at the very back to the right next to our new student Frank Iero if you'd like to go sit there." Ms. Minx explain, pointing to someone sitting at the back of the class.
Illi turned her head towards the back, locking eyes with some punk kid who she assumed was Frank. Weirdly enough, the punk guy was already staring right at her.

Summary
Mike recalls the brief interaction he had this morning in the hallway for perhaps the hundredth time. Maybe his friends can help. Help with what exactly, Mike doesn’t know— but something has been bugging him and he needs to get to the bottom of it.
“Hey, do you guys know that kid that wears all black? Chain belt? Eyeliner?”
“The gay kid?” Dustin supplies.
Oh, that’s right. Mike knew he had heard about him somewhere. He’s kind of famous around school. Well, him and his boyfriend. Even with it being 2006, they’re still the only openly gay people at the school.
Mike nods. “Yeah, I guess. I ran into him this morning. Literally, like we collided.”
——
Mike has a run-in with Will Byers, the school’s so-called “gay kid”. He takes it upon himself to befriend him, and quickly learns about Will’s relationship troubles with his boyfriend Matt. Along the way, Mike struggles with his identity, and Will struggles with his self-worth.

Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.
