One night is what it all took to turn my life upside down. All I had to do was be showboated around the officials Anthony had invited so I could start being a known public figure off-right. Or at least getting to know how to act around these kinds of people and not get in trouble. Honestly, I never wanted to be a public figure and do all this shit. All I wanted to do was take my weird ability to use electricity and make it go in certain directions to either power things up or stun someone along with my fascination for engineering and coding to help people. But since that, there was already a set of superhero teams that was very much in the public eye and controlled by the government. The public expects the same of every one part of it. So if I was honest with myself it was going to happen whether I like it or not.
So I was with Alexander and was practically glued to his side since I did not want to leave. Alexander has magic abilities and keeps that magic shit in check. Before he kept himself kinda in the background but then Anthony caught wind that he existed and threw him into the show of the public. Grant it, he was pretty intimidating so no one would try to do anything weird. They had gotten close through Anthony introducing me to Alexander who was about 5 years older than me and I was 18 and scared shitless of this man.
But we kept running into each other and he wanted to understand my abilities more so he invited me to his home and the rest is history. Now being 25 and knowing him for so long I couldn’t stop the eventual feelings that grew from friendship to a desire for something more. And that could never fucking happen because Alexander may be really smart but is so dumb emotionally so I had resided myself that I would never be able to act on these emotions.
That was before I woke up after drinking way too much after this event and waking up at Alexander’s house.
“Ugh, my head is fucking killing me. I am so sorry for this. Having to take me to your house like some drunk 20-something.” I say putting my head back down on the pillow and groaning again, shutting my eyes.
“It's fine. Though I have a question about something you said last night.” Alexander says walking into the room looking ready for a long conversation that was going to happen. Or at least he plans on doing it.
Shit.
