Summary
“You know it’s illegal to paint here, right?”
The painter doesn’t look at Mike. Instead, he hollers back, “what are you, a cop?”
The spray can is still hissing against brick, and it’s still getting under Mike’s skin. “No,” Mike finally settles on. “Just a… concerned citizen. You know. Because of the aerosol.”
“I don’t think you’re supposed to smoke there either. Do you not see the sign?”
"I smoke here every Wednesday and Friday night,” he says, dragging the cigarette from between his teeth. He pauses a moment before exhaling through his nose, smoke dissolving into the biting October air. He stares at the paint. “You know, I don’t think that’s good for the environment.”
“I don’t think aerosol paint is what’s killing New York, dude. Especially not with jackasses like you who smoke like chimneys.”
Or, when native New Yorker Mike Wheeler steps away from his band’s shitty downtown club gig for a smoke, he meets Zombie Boy: the eclipsed twin brother of infamous street artist Lab Rat, haunting the neon walls of Alphabet City.

Summary
Mike Wheeler is in love with Will Byers, but it’s the kind of love that takes bravery that Mike simply does not possess, and doesn’t believe he ever will.
Mike only knows how to hide - from the people he loves most, from his feelings, from himself. He hides behind his relationship with El; he knows he pretends she’s someone else.
She’s going away to study abroad, and she wants more for herself than a relationship with someone who doesn’t even know her favorite color.
In a mindless and pathetic plea, Mike professes to El that she is the best thing that’s ever happened to him, despite the pain and suffering Will had to go through in order for their paths to cross.
Will overhears this, and with a broken heart and severe desperation to get over Mike, he takes up on his scholarship from NYU (that mike is unaware of) and makes everyone around them promise not to tell Mike where he’s going.
After all, hasn’t Will has always been great at hiding?
Four years later in 1993, Mike finds out where Will has been hiding from him and will do anything in his power to beg and plea for will to be back by his side.
Except Will Byers has moved on with someone new.

Summary
Mike turns around and sees Will standing in the middle of the hallway and stops.
"Hey," he says. "Can I help you find something?"
His voice in person is slightly different from the radio. This is the version before the edit. Louder, and a little breathless from arguing, and entirely unaware of how often Will had listened to him.
"I'm here about a logo commission," Will says. He sounds, he thinks, almost normal. Even with his brain operating at half-capacity.
Mike's eyebrows go up in surprise. "We're getting a new logo?"
