What Happened To Me!?

This Is Bad! So SO BAD!

Elliot's POV

I was waiting by my father's bed while he lays down and tries to get some rest. William put him in his bed, but he left immediately, as if he didn't care for his well being. I still did though, even though after the argument that we had earlier, well, before the 'incident'...

Did he really mean what he said about Mother, about her leaving us for someone else and just leaving me here? I know I remember her being in my childhood from the age of four, was it all just imaginary? I also remember we were having some kind of funeral, so why was he saying that she left us? Was it a lie? Was her dying a lie? I'm so confused!

Also, when he wakes up, would he still do what he threatened me to do, send me to Science Camp for a week straight? And banning me from the kitchen? I really hope not! Half of me hoped that he would forget about the whole argument from this morning, and forget about the 'superpower' thing that I somehow got.

Yes, I said superpowers!

You might be thinking 'BuT ELliE, ONly fIVe YeAR OlDs bELieVE iN SuPERpoWerS!'

Well, I WASN'T hallucintating, that's for sure! So I don't know what you would call that if superpowers were fake!

And I'm VERY sure that I wasn't on drugs or something!

Or was the white liquid some kind of drugs-

NO YOU IDIOT! Your father wouldn't have LITERAL liquid drugs in his lab and leave it out in the OPEN! And plus, you were the idiot that drank it in the first place!

Yeah, you're right, I remember...

But I guess the only explanation would be that I have superpowers. This would be a GIANT discovery for humans and stuff, that normal people could could have superhuman strenth!

Or even laser eyes!

Or you could even breath underwater!

Or you could FLY!

Think of all the possibilities with the superpowers that I figured out! I could amaze people with this kind of stuff, and I can finally stop being labeled as the 'Famous Scientist's Son' or 'Next Greatest Scientist', and I could now be labeled as 'First Human To Ever Have Superpowers'!

Okay, I could shorten the name a bit, but you get the point!

But, then again....

I don't want to get caught by some weird scientists and get them to experiment on me like I was some kind of lab rat. Even worse...

What if it could be my own FATHER!

My own father experimenting on me, that sounds like an absolute NIGHTMARE! My won father degrading me to a lab rat or something, and not even caring about my own feelings about that.

Not like he ever did.

I mean, all the people that usually have superpowers in movies usually hide them from other people until SOMEONE somehow finds them out by exposing themselves by accident. I just think that they're just stupid, so I will do the complete opposite!

I bet I'll be able to keep my powers a secret for a whole MONTH!

After that, NOBODY would be able to suspect a thing that's different from me, and I can develop my own powers secretly and then use it to save the world! Easy peasy!

But then saving the world would be SOOO much work!

Alright, nevermind that, I have to wait for my father to wake up, so I can hopefully explain to him what happened earlier. His fingers were shaking a little bit, so it was a sign that he WASN'T dead, thank the lord! I really didn't want to lose ANOTHER parent!
