Christopher sat at the sidekick table with some of his friends. Heros and sidekicks did not sit together. Christopher was actually a hero, but all the other hero's were stuck up and full of themselves. Well, most of them. The girl who just walked in the lunch room, Treasa, she was a hero and did not seem to mind making a fool of herself. He smiled as he watched her search the room.
"And then he said, get this, 'why'd ya do that, Frank?" Henry finished his joke with a flurish of his hand, which had been changed to a fork. The people around the table laughed, except for Christopher. He was still watching Treasa, he flipped her hair behind her should,wondering how could she make a simple guesture like that seem so appealing?
"Chris? Hey, Chris what are you looking at?" Henry pushed Christopher, harder than he meant too because Christopher fell off of his chair.
Christopher felt the blood fill his cheeks. Treasa was looking at him and laughing behind her hand. Suddenly there were hands everywhere.
"Chris are you hurt?" "Oh dear, you fell!" "Let me help you up!" "Give me your hand, Chris." Each girl scrambled to help him up, and only pushing him farther down. Christopher hated his little "fanclub" they never gave him a moment's peace.
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern ladies." Christopher said as he pushed himself up and the girls away at the same time. Not only were they annoying, but when people touched him it just hurt. That was his powers fault. Super agility, senses, and strength. Which is why he always wore gloves, earplugs and a blindfold. If he did not he ended up curled up in a ball in some corner holding his head.
Christopher looked back to where Treasa had been standing, but she was gone. He panicked a little bit, but found her hugging... Ranna? She was avoided like the plauge, and Treasa was hugging her! Wow, either she had a death wish or did not care what would happen to her.
"Hey, Chris, the long you stare at her there is more of a chance that she will notice you staring at her." The table laughed, and Christopher sat down blushing again. What was it about her?
