"Mike!!" El whisper shouted to Mike. "Stop!"
Mike turned around, grinning. "It's ok, I promise. Come on!"
El had no choice but to get up and go with Mike. Her heart hammering, she snatched Mike's hand protectively, letting the girl know that Mike was taken.
"Hi! I'm Mike and this is El. You must be new?"
The girl blinked hard. "Hi!!! I'm Joe!" Seeing Mike's raised eyebrow, she added, "short for Elizabeth Joe Turner. I'm from Minnesota and my parents are weeeeird. Like my little sister is named Ryan Cassiope Turner. I like the name Cassiope but naming a girl Ryan is weird in my opinion. Who's this?"
Eleven shrunk back at Joe's once over, but surprisingly it wasn't harsh or critical. It was curious and interested. Eleven at once stood up straighter and said, "my name is El. And Mike. He is mine."
Joe laughed. "Oh don't worry. He's not my type. I have a boyfriend anyway. Speaking of which, there he is!"
She raised her arm to wave at someone behind El and Mike, and that was when El realized why this girl seemed off.
009 was tattooed on her wrist.
