Highschool. Oh how much he hated it. Between the ungodly amount classes and the weight of exams coming up soon. He fought through it of course, with the hopes of his powers coming soon. ‘Any day now’ his father had convinced him. But any day seemed so far away

One thing made school a not-so bad place. You. He had a massive crush on you, the way you concentrated so hard in chemistry, or the way you bit your pencil when deep in thought. Oh he was down bad. And the worst part is- he’s never even spoken to you in his life!

It’s chem, again, and it was partner work! I mean, who doesn’t love partner work? Messing around with your buddies and….

“I’ll be choosing the partners.” The teacher suddenly added. He was genuinely on his last straw.

And to make matters worse, he was partnered up with you! It’s like the chemistry teacher noticed his daydreaming while staring at you instead of doing his class work thing. You moved to sit next to him, not thinking much of it. Hey, maybe youd make a new friend!

“I-um…hey!” He tried to appear confident, like he wasn’t sweating his ahh off right now. “Why did Mrs Wright have to choose partners, right.” He chuckled nervously.
