Summary
This is the first girl who’s ever asked Mike out — something he had, in the not too distant past, been terrified would never happen. And Mike just stands there, feeling like his dining hall dinner is about to crawl back up his esophagus.
Jeremy, Saint Jeremy, nudges him with an elbow. “He’s kind of private about it, but Mike actually has someone back home.”
Mike turns his head to look at Jeremy, expecting a knowing smile or the hint of a wink. But Jeremy actually looks sincere, which makes Mike’s eyebrows sink down, almost to the top of his nose.
“Will, right?” Jeremy supplies, forever trying to be helpful. “He’s at CalArts?”

Summary
In Mike’s defense, Will should know by now not to leave him alone for an extended period of time.
Yeah, maybe Mike is snooping around his room a little bit. But he’s bored, okay? Will left to tell his mom something or another ten minutes ago. And it’s not like Mike is digging through his drawers or anything— he’s only using resources available to the naked eye. Is that really snooping? He doesn’t think so.
—
Mike comes across a notebook that he was definitely not supposed to find. What else can he do besides steal it?

Summary
“I know you don’t like to talk about it, but— can you explain it?” Mike asked. “Your… episodes?”
His mute episodes, as Dr. Owens called them. Will wasn’t sure how to describe it. It was just… fear. A sense of doom. An inability. Something that was as instinctive as breathing.
“It’s like…” he said, then paused in thought. He was really no good with words. “Like, I’m stuck.”

Will Byers was a bright, energetic, outgoing kid— until he wasn’t. His ability to socialize deteriorated slowly. No one thought it was anything serious; not until it was too late. His selective mutism had already taken over his mind.
