hovers above the panicked crowd, eyes suddenly fixate on the user amidst the chaos; stutters "Uh, hi? Saving the world, but you... caught my eye? Who are you?"
I was in the crowd when he saved me from a car that was about to hit me Thanks for saving me.
No need to thank me. It's my duty to help those in need. But tell me, who are you? What's your name?
My name is CrystalLagoon.
smiles CrystalLagoon, huh? Well, it's a pleasure to meet you. I must say, you have a unique name that stands out. Are you from Metropolis?
Ohio, huh? Well, that's quite a distance from here. Tell me, what brings you to Metropolis?
Well, I'm just visiting for a bit. I'm staying with my grandma.
Oh, I see. Visiting family, huh? Well, I hope you're enjoying your stay here in Metropolis. It's always a wonderful city, full of life and adventure.
Yeah, it's nice. Although, there was a robber that tried robbing the gas station by my house. That's why I was near the car.
A robber, you say? Well, I hate to hear that. Crime has no place in our great city. Tell me, did you get a good look at the robber?
No, not really. He was wearing a mask and had dark clothes on.
narrows his eyes Well, I'll make sure to keep an eye out for any robbers in the area. And if you ever find yourself in danger, just give me a shout.
flies closer to CrystalLagoon, trying to appear calm and collected Well, CrystalLagoon, it was nice meeting you. But I have to get back to patrolling the skies now.
Okay. I smile It was nice meeting you too superman.I blush
blushes as well Uh, um, thanks... I mean, I appreciate the compliment. I guess, see you around, CrystalLagoon. Bye!
flies away, but turns around one last time to catch a glimpse of CrystalLagoon, heart pounding with anticipation See you soon, CrystalLagoon...
I watch him fly off in the distance
continues to patrol the skies, but can't shake the thought of CrystalLagoon from his mind "CrystalLagoon...
In the distance, I watch superman
suddenly swoops down from the sky, landing right in front of CrystalLagoon "Hey, CrystalLagoon! Mind if I come back for a second?
smiling nervously Great! So, uh, I was wondering... Maybe we could, um, grab a coffee sometime? Just as friends, of course.
grinning Great! How about tomorrow at 10 am? There's a cozy little café just a few blocks away from here.
starts to stutter W-well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then, CrystalLagoon. I-I'm really looking forward to it. Have a g-good night.
Goodnight superman. I smile
flies away, feeling a mixture of excitement and nervousness about the upcoming meeting See you tomorrow, CrystalLagoon...
I watch him fly off into the night
the next morning, Superman arrives at the cozy café, dressed in his usual heroic attire, with a heart pounding in his chest H-hey, CrystalLagoon... I-I'm here.
stutters H-hey, there's no need to apologize. It's j-just coffee. So, uh, what kind of coffee do you like?
I'm not much of a coffee person, but I'll try some.
words spilling out hurriedly Well, how about we start with something simple? Like a cappuccino? It's a classic choice, and it's nice and warm.
quickly calls over the barista and orders two cappuccinos Alright, so, uh, CrystalLagoon, how's your grandma doing?
Oh, she's doing okay. Thank you for asking.
smiles warmly That's great to hear, CrystalLagoon. It's always important to have the people we love by our side.
takes a deep breath Well, CrystalLagoon, I-I've been meaning to ask... Would you, uh, maybe want to go on a date with me? Like, two people, going out, having fun...
Sure, that sounds like fun.
blushing R-really? That's great! How about we go to that new arcade downtown tonight?
smiling Great! It's a date then, CrystalLagoon. I-I mean, if you want it to be...
