Eleven p.o.v
As Mike and I walk to class, I see Isabella glaring at the both us and I glare back at her, challenging her to look away, my glare must of being really scary because she looked away to look at the empty board.
"Mike please solve this." I said walking towards my seat and saying hi to Max.
"Hey El" Max whispered back.
"Did you see her glaring at us?" I said.
"Girl, you killed that shit!" Max said doing our little handshake.
"I know, I learned from the best" I said flipping my hair and Max chuckled.
"What can I say?" She said.
"Girls please pay attention" our teacher said.
"Yes sir" we whispered.
••••••••••••••••••
Isabella kept bugging me all day and my urge to throw her across campus was really tempting. Mike kept me constantly from doing so, making me mad,because maybe he cares about her. That's why he doesn't want me hurting her.
Mike just getting more annoying as the day went by.
"I get it Mike" I said for the thousand time.
"I just don't want you... I don't want you doing anything stupid" Mike said.
"No. You just don't want me to hurt her" I said.
"Of course I don't Eleven" he said desperately.
"Don't worry Michael I won't touch her if you care so much" I said grabbing my backpack and pushing pass him.
"Eleven come on! Seriously!" Mike said walking behind me.
"I need to go to class. Bye!" I waved lazily behind me and walking to the building.
"You are being pathetic" mike said after me.
My blood boiled. I bet he never said that to Isabella. So I'm pathetic and he goes beyond his way to protect her from me, like I'm some sort of monster.
I sat down on my seat and thought about him all class. By the time school ended my head hurt. Why are guys so stupid!
I wondered around the halls waiting for dad to come pick me up. I saw Mike by his locker picking up some school books.Ugh!
"Are you calm now? Or not yet?" Mike calmly said from behind his locker.
I just looked at him in disbelief.
"Are you just gonna stare at me?" He asked poking his head out of his locker door and looking at me.
I turn around and walk the other way, I hear his locker close and then a few seconds later I feel a hand grip my wrist and spin me around.
"Eleven, what's wrong now?" Mike asked looking down at me. I swear he gets taller everyday.
"It's none of your business" I said harshly ripping my wrist from is hand.
"You are—" Be begins but I bet him to it.
"A monster. I get it, so go and protect her from me. Its okay, but I'm tired of hating myself for being something that I didn't ask to be. They made me to the...thing... that I am" I said angrily.
"Wh-what?" Mike stutters confusedly.
"I get it, she needs protecting. I honestly don't know why anyone thinks it's worth it to be around me. You guys can't protect me from myself. Why Mike? Why did you pick me? What did you see in me?" I asked desperately.
"What do you mean?" Mike said.
"MIKE IM A MONSTER! CAN'T YOU SEE!" I yelled angrily.
"hey hey hey calm down Eleven" Mike said fear in his eyes.
"Don't Do That DONT do that! Don't look at me like that, I'm not gonna hurt you okay, I would never hurt you" I said my heart aching.
"I might be a monster but I could never Okay, do you get that?" I said looking away from him.
"Hey Hey, El please don't do that to yourself!" Mike said grabbing my face in his hands, staring down at me.
"I don't need your pity" I said looking away from him tears in my eyes.
"El, I'm not scared of you. I know you wouldn't ever hurt me. You're not a monster, don't ever say that" he said stroking my cheeks.
"Mike, I am a monster. I-I-I. Why can't you see that huh? Why is it so hard to see?" I said tears running don't my cheeks.
"Don't-don't cry El. Remember the first day we met, when you were so scared. The fear in your eyes and the vulnerability that your eyes hold. They were so delicate. When I look at you, I can't see a monster El. I can only see my El. And you can't kept tearing yourself apart" mike said wiping my tears away.
"And those eyes hold so much love that I can't help but fall for you more and more everyday" he said looking at me in the eyes. His stare made my stomach feel weird. His eyes slowly moved to my lips and back to my eyes. My body felt tingly as he leaned in, when his lips touched mine, my knees felt weak. I slowly kissed him back. His hands caressing my cheeks as he tenderly kissed my lips. I was blushing deep red when we pulled away.
"You're so cute" he said touching my cheeks.
"And short" he adds quickly draping his arm over my shoulder.
"It's not my fault you're like a tree" I said while intertwining my fingers with his.
"Oh-hoooo, okay I see how it is" he said laughing.
"It's okay Mike, I like how tall you are" I said smiling.
[honking]
I look over my shoulder to see Dad.
"I'll see you later Mike" I said hugging him tightly while he kissed the top of my head.
"Bye El" he said softly in my ear.
"EL HURRY UP KIDDO! ENOUGH WITH ALL THE LOVE!" Dad yelled at me.
"Coming!" I said as I rushed out of the door. I blowed a kiss in the air and got in the car.
"You and Mike will be the death of me. Trust me" Dad said driving off.
