Chapter 3 - THE APPROACH

"Dang it, I'm late." Jason said and got into class. "Oh, it's about time you showed up. Two hours detention, just like Ivy." Mrs Smith said and continued the lesson. Jason put on a long face, but deep down he was happy. At least he got a chance to be alone with her.

He quietly went back to his seat and put on a grin with his eyes closed. " Why are you smiling,nerd?" Robert asked like a jerk he was. " Nothing, I just wanna." Jason responded. "Creep." Robert said. Three hours later, the bell rung. FINALLY! BORING CLASS WAS OVER.

Jason and Ivy both went to their usual seat at the cafeteria and ate their food. When school was over, they both went to detention. Mrs. Smith was already there waiting patiently on her seat. "It's about time."

Jason and Ivy choose a seat that was really close, so they could be close to each other. " Hey...um...I want to..um..ask you a question." Jason nervously said. " Sure, whatever it is. I'll give you a clear answer." Ivy said with a charming smile.

Jason regained his courage and took a deep breath. " Well, I wanted to ask if you are in a... relationship."Jason said looking at the floor since he was expecting a slap from her. " Oh... I.. well, no. I'm not. Why do you want to know?" Ivy asked. Guess the gig was up. He knew he had to tell her the truth, so he took another deep breath and said " Will you be my girlfriend?"

"Oh...I don't know what to say. Ok.. Yes, I will." Ivy said. She was shocked. "Oh, thank you so much. I promise you won't regret being my girlfriend." Jason said and held her hand. Few minutes later, they were free to go. " See you later, Jason." Ivy said and got into her dad's car and they drove off. Jason looked to be sure she was gone. When she had gone and Jason was at home, he jumped up excitedly and lay on his bed.

That was when he remembered he had superpowers. He quickly ran to his reading desk and brought out his sketch pad and pencil and started to sketch different ideas of supersuits for himself. Minutes, hours passed and the waste bin was already filled with squeezed papers. 9:05 pm, and he was still awake sketching and sketching. FINALLY! He had found the perfect suit. A bright blue super suit with a sparkling white cape and white boots. " Perfect" Jason said and dozed off.
