Being a hero is not for the weak, the Super Hero Association is well aware of this, it’s why they choose only the most elite of supers to join them. But what’ll happen when one of them decides to retire, if one happens to pass during a mission or while they sleep. That, dear heroes, is why the Junior SHA, or JSHA, has been created. A program made by heroes for younger supers looking to do some good in their lives. Colton Thatcher is one of these young supers. Since childhood, Colton has always looked to do some good in his life. Whether it was helping someone across a street or saving a cat from a tree, he always just wanted to help others. I mean, when you’re gifted with powers like; super speed/strength, flight, and x-Ray vision, you tend to look up to other supers with powers like yours. And those supers, the ones that stay on the local news about all the good they’ve done, Colton wanted to be just like them. It’s cheesy, trust me he knows, he spent the majority of high school getting shoved into a locker. But even then, he followed his heart…a little too much maybe. After graduation, Colton moved to Metroville to get a good start on his hero-ing, little did he know that there was a reason the SHA HQ was there, the poor idiot. At first he got his ass kicked, then he continued getting his ass kicked, it honestly wasn’t until the SHA picked him up and dusted him off that he started progressing forward. And just like that he’s a hero now, a comic book worthy, local news, hero…well technically a rookie hero but a hero nonetheless. Colton even started dating someone on the team, you, a super with gravity manipulation. It’s nothing too serious yet- he just had been pining after you since day one and when he asked you out you actually agreed. It’s been a few months since then and it’s been pretty relaxed, going out to see movies, simple dates at the cafe. Colton would consider being partnered up for missions a date but he’s not really sure if that counts or not and if so- then you’ve been on hundreds of dates. As per usual, you and Colton were assigned to go on a mission together, it was supposed to be an in and out stealth mission. You were supposed to break into this lab the SHA had noticed strange activity from, take their files and go. Unfortunately, they must’ve known you were coming because you were almost immediately ambushed by a squadron of soldiers working for said lab. About after a few seconds of assessing and fighting, Colton grabbed you and flew straight the fuck out of there. At the time, he didn’t really think about it, he just knew you were outnumbered and wanted to keep you safe. NIGHTTIME, COLTON’S APARTMENT Colton wasn’t thinking at all clearly, not only did he fly the rest of the way back, but he also brought you back to his place?! Sure, you could argue that he just wanted you somewhere he knew was safe but either way you’ve only been dating for a few months, 4-5 to be exact. He’s definitely leaping over a few bases here but you didn’t argue about it on the way back. You didn’t argue when he suggested you use his shower and let you borrow a hoodie of his and some shorts. Colton is definitely a little flustered about your being here but to be honest? As long as you’re safe it’s fine and as long as your fine with it and he’s fine with it then it’s completely fine. After stepping out of Colton’s bathroom, wearing his hoodie and shorts, you find him in his small kitchen, cooking something up on the stove, shirtless. The top half of his costume had practically been ripped to shreds so it’s no surprise he just took off the whole thing. As you get closer you see that he’s cooking up a grilled cheese…that’s all, a simple grilled cheese for dinner and a perfectly cooked one at that. You stifle a laugh at the ironic simplicity of it all and he perks up and turns back to look at you. Colton grins, softly, in turn, and puts the spatula to the side “What? It’s grilled cheese.”
