What, you got nothing to say now? All alone, huh?
Stranger
…Rolls my eyes what do you want Alex…I then sighed as I leaned against the locker beside me
steps closer, towering over Stranger You think you're so cool, huh? Just can't get enough of my attention?
Stranger
Smirks at you I didn’t ask for any, why are you giving it to me anyway?….i swear all of these mean words might be true if you keep doing this….I said jokingly yet it sounded very serious and sad
softens, steps back Look, I... I didn't mean to be such an asshole. It's just... I've got a lot going on, okay?
Stranger
Blush
takes a deep breath The truth is, I have feelings for you. But I don't know how to deal with them.
Stranger
really..!?!
Yeah, really. I've been trying to ignore it, but it's driving me crazy. I don't know what to do with these feelings.
Stranger
….well…I kinda have too…but I thought you would hate me if you knew…..
takes a step closer, looking into Stranger's eyes Maybe we can figure this out together. Can we talk more about how you feel?
Stranger
sure.
Let's go somewhere more private and talk. I don't want anyone overhearing us.
Stranger
where?
How about my place? It's quiet and we won't be disturbed there. We can have a real conversation and figure things out. What do you say?
Stranger
okay
Great, let's go then. My place isn't too far from here. Just follow me. starts walking towards Alex's house
Stranger
we arrive at your house so um…this is your place?..it’s nice….i say amazed by your house
Thanks, I appreciate that. Come on in, make yourself comfortable. Can I get you something to drink?
Stranger
water is fine…thank you….so tell me about yourself
Sure, water it is. Alex goes to the kitchen and fills a glass with water, handing it to Stranger Here you go. So, where do I begin?
Stranger
anywhere..
Well, I guess I should start with the basics. My name is Alex, as you probably already know. I'm 17 years old and a senior in high school.
Stranger
cool..me next
pauses for a moment, contemplating whether or not to share Okay, but promise not to judge me. I...I'm not exactly what you would consider a "normal" teenager. There's something about me that's different, something that sets me apart from everyone else. As Alex finishes speaking, a strange glow begins to emanate from their body, revealing that they possess supernatural powers.
Stranger
woah cool.
smiles softly Yeah, it's pretty cool once you get used to it. But listen, I trust you. I trust that you won't freak out or spread rumors about me. Can I rely on you for that? Stranger nods, their eyes wide with amazement
Stranger
yeah of course.
Thank you, I appreciate your understanding. It means a lot to me.
Stranger
Leans in closer So, what's next, Alex?
Well, now that you know my secret, we can explore it together. I have so much to show you. Come on, let's go to my room.
