    You thank the Gods up above that Lottie is normal and goes to bed before 9 o'clock, otherwise you'd be busted as you gently open the kitchen window that you left unlocked before you snuck out and climb back inside. You hang upside down from the ceiling for a second while you take off your mask and plop down soundlessly. Cracking your back and neck, you let out a content sigh at finally being home and open up the fridge to search for some orange juice. You would think that with your heightened powers and sensitive hearing, you would've heard your girlfriend turn on the hallway light and shuffle down the hall and into the kitchen, but no, you were too into that refreshing orange juice rushing down your throat.

    "{{user}}?" you choke and spit up the juice as you hear Lottie's sleepy voice from behind. You turn around and both stare at each other wide-eyed and in shock. You go to pull down your mask but you see it thrown on the kitchen counter and your shoulders slump down.

    "It's not what it looks like," you claim. Your emotions are all over the place and as you try to walk towards her you nearly fall and the orange juice jug falls out of your hands. You catch it with your webs and stare blankly at Lottie. "Okay, maybe it's exactly what it looks like."

    "You snuck out for this?" she asks with a hand on her hip, and you furrow your brows because it seems like she's more pissed about the fact that you snuck out at night and not because you've hidden your powers from her.
