Linden asked.
                  “Radical Mexican, and don’t you forget it either.” He turned back around and continued to walk. “Queers,” he muttered under his breath when he was sure they couldn’t hear him.
                  “Jaime,” Autumn said quietly so only he could hear. “Be good. If you start trouble, you’ll be out with the infected. I don’t care if you get munched or not. I don’t want to live with intolerance if I don’t have to. That was out there. In here, we are starting new.”
                  “Fine, I be good.”
                  She reached the elevators first, waiting for the others. She pressed the call button. They came eventually. When they were ready to get in, she noticed another group of people walking over. It looked like her sister, Ivy Lee and Anatha. They were trying to get Autumn’s attention by waving their hands wildly. She thought they looked like fools. She motioned to show she saw them.
                  “What’s up now?” Jaime murmured. “They don’t look so bad, actually.”
                  Pervert , she thought, rolling her eyes; he’ll fit in perfectly . The girls where a little closer now and decided to run the rest of the way to the elevator. “Why not run from back there?” she asked them as they got closer.
                  “I don’t know,” Anatha said, out of breath. Ivy Lee dropped to one knee, tying her shoelaces.

    Looking past her sister and into the ele vator, Envy noticed the guys. She looked at the weird guy standing by Autumn and frowned. He was dressed like a rapper. He had on big baggy blue jeans, a white tank top tucked into his jeans, and a football jacket over that. The jacket had patches on it but looked as if someone had ripped them off. He was as white as white could be too. A beanie covered his brown hair, making his large hazel eyes stand out. He stood about five-seven and wasn’t someone she would normally date, but he wasn’t a pole either. Maybe he had a chance.

                  Autumn noticed her looking at Jaime. “This is Jaime,” she said. “Jaime, this is my sister Envy, her friend Ivy Lee, and our cousin, Anatha.”
                  “Yo, whatzup?” Jaime said with a flirty smile.
                  “Hi,” Envy and Ivy Lee said simultaneously.
                  Anatha looked at the new guy. “And where did you two meet?” 
                  “I bumped into him.” Anatha got a vision of a scared mouse hiding in a corner. Autumn’s thinking of pictures, how odd .
                  “Anatha,” was all Autumn said, and Anatha stopped, looking at Envy. Why couldn’t she do that with the cousin she actually liked?
                  “We’re going down homegirlies. Wanna join?” Jaime said.
                  “We were planning to anyway,” Anatha said, eyeing him. Already she didn’t like him.
    As they got into the elevator , Envy and Ivy Lee talked to Jaime. “So you’re a rapper, huh?” Ivy Lee asked.
                  “Yeah.”
                  “Jaime is your performance name?” Anatha asked.
                  He nodded, “Some of it. It’s actually Jaime RM.” Autumn pressed the down arrow.
                  “RM?” Ivy Lee asked.
                  “Radical Mexican,” Linden answered before Jaime could.
                  He turned and looked at him. “Shut up, fool, or I’ll bitch slap your ass.”
                  “Jaime, shut up!” Autumn said. “Remember what I told you.”
                  His mouth snapped shut.
                  “What’s all this yelling about? Hold the elevator before it closes.”
                  They all looked over to see Hazel, Frank, and Richard walking up. “We got a
