044; an almost boyfriend

Sofia's POV:

"Awwww!" I heard a voice say as I woke up from my sleep and saw Tate and Alexa looking over my body.

"What?" I asked them.

"You and Daniel are so cute." Alexa smiled and pointed at the boy still fast asleep in my lap.

"Let us be." I say before closing my eyes and and pulling Daniel into a hug. He must have woken up because he hugs be back harder.

"Morning Sof." he says in his morning voice, which butterflies flap around in my stomach.

"Are you guys going to get up, your blocking the path to the bathroom." Jack argued with us and we both looked at him with frowns, getting an eye roll in response.

"You guys do know we are meeting Jade in ten right?" Alexa asked us as she was brushing her hair and putting it dutch braids.

"Wait what?" I ask finally sitting up in the floor.

"Yeah, she came in here like 20 minutes ago. We would have woke you up but you were too cute." Tate said as she put on a pair of shoes.

"Great. Come on let's get ready." I say to Daniel and we both help each other up, getting ready for the day.

I found some exercise shorts and a nice big t-shirt to where. It was simple and nice for whatever we were going to be thrown into today.

Once everyone was ready, we all made our way out of the cabin and followed Alexa to where Jade was suppose to meet us apparently.

She led us to a huge outside auditorium. There were huge steps, maybe about three to four of them leading to the center of the place, which held wood for a bonfire.

"I feel like I'm in Percy Jackson." I say before I look at Daniel and he rolls his eyes, holding in a laugh, mentioning the book again.

"There she is come on." Alexa said as she walked over to Jade who was in the center and waved at us.

"Glad to see your all up. Should we get started?" she smiled at us.

"So there are more kids here like us?" Jack asked as we all sat on benches around Jade. We all asked her questions and she would answer us.

"Everyone here is like you. I think we have ages from 7 to 29. All struck by lightning." Jade said as she thought about her answer.

"How does the lightning thing even work? How did it give us these powers?" I ask her and everyone listened closely to her answer.

"When someone gets hit by lighting, which weirdly can happen often, it can do one of two things. One it changes your genetics and gives you two select abilities along with a corresponding color. The other option is, well you die."

"Well thank god we didn't die, am I right." Corbyn said nodding his head and putting his hand up for Jack to high five it.

Jack shook his head and ignored Corbyn, "How do the powers work?"

"Everyone has two powers. We've narrowed it down to a list of twenty powers you could possibly develop. When you get your first power your body will give you a color which is the color your eyes light up when you use one of your abilities. The color represents how dangerous you are." Jade said as she looked across our faces. I think I understand this, but it was a lot of information.

"What colors can you get?" Tate asked even though she doesn't relate to any of this.

"There's yellow, orange, green, blue, purple, and red. Each one representing a different level of danger, like I said before." Jade said to us as she moved her hands along with her sentences.
