"Where are you going? We have to get to class," the girl he didn't know said.
"Yeah, Becky is right," Lilly said. "You can't just leave right after you got here."
Mikey stopped and turned around. Becky? Was that the girl's name?
Lilly also felt a little confused. She wasn't sure how she knew that girl's name either. After all, this was the first time they met ... right?
Mikey really wanted to go home and get the stone, but he had a feeling that these three girls might get him in trouble over it. And judging by what he saw in the mirror, he hadn't changed that much. Maybe he could ride this out and just grab the stone after school. So, reluctantly, he decided to head to his next class ... whatever that was. He just ended up following Becky's lead, since she knew more about his school schedule than he did.
