What If I Told You I'm From Space?

What Did I Do?...

I sat in my classroom with my head buried in my textbook. I was panicking after the incident in the hall. That girl must know something's up now. I'm such an idiot! And to make everything worse, her black and teal hair was still in my mind.
      "Celton, you alright?" Asked Gohan. I looked up and freaked out a little bit more.
      "What are you doing here, shouldn't you be in class?!" I exclaimed quietly.
      "Celton, class doesn't start for 20 minutes. The teacher isn't even here," Gohan said. I looked at my watch, and then let my head fall into my book again as he proved right. "I saw what happened in the hall."
      "Great, now everyone knows I have extreme speed and perfect reflexes," I groaned. Gohan patted my shoulder a little to try and relax me.
     "Look, if anyone confronts you about it, just say it was dumb luck," Gohan told me. "I'm gonna head to my class now, just take a deep breath and relax. Everything is fine." Gohan walked away, and I took a deep breath. I started trying to think more clearly as my classmates began to trickle into the classroom. As long as I don't see her again today it will all be fine. And of course as I say that, I look to the door and see her walking into class.
     "Shit shit shit..." I mumbled under my breath. She walked up to a desk far above mine and luckily didn't seem to notice me. I took another deep breath as I just focused on the class lecture. Throughout the rest of the day, I was able to avoid anyone asking questions. It was like this morning hadn't even happened. The end of the day came quickly, and I started walking at a brisk pace to leave the school. Just a few more steps and I would be able to forget this morning happened.
     "Hey!" I heard a girl call out. Shit. I looked back hesitantly, and who else would it have been than the girl I ran into this morning. Shit!
     "It's Celton right?" She asked me. Shit, she knows my name!
     "Y-y-yeah," I stuttered.
     "I wanted to say thank you for catching me in the hall this morning," she said.
     "Oh, i-i-it was just d-dumb luck," I said quickly. Why am I not turning away? Why am I stuck in her eyes?
     "Dumb luck or not, I appreciate it," she said. "My name's Claire."
     "Nice t-to meet you Claire," I said, shaking in my boots.
     "I was also wondering if you'd like to go for some coffee with me?" She asked. Did she just ask me out?!
     "Oh, um... sure," I said. Oh my Kami I said yes. I said yes?! Why the hell did I say yes?!
     "Perfect, let's go then," Claire said.
     "W-Wait now?!" I exclaimed.
     "Of course, now come on," Claire said with a smile. She started walking down the sidewalk, and I audibly gulped as I reluctantly caught up with her. We walked side by side for a bit down the street, and the whole time I was trying to calm myself down. It's alright Celton, it's just coffee and then you can go about your day. Her hand suddenly grabbed mine and I froze up to the point that I almost fell over.
     "You ok?" She asked me with a little laugh.
     "Y-y-yeah, I'm f-f-fine," I said shakily. Claire laughed a little and walked backwards out into the crosswalk.
     "Come on Celton, lighten up a little," she said endearingly. I looked up to her again, just as I heard the sound of a truck horn. I could see out of the corner of my eye a speeding semi-truck.
     "CLAIRE!" I shouted. My body moved all on its own. In a split second I had gone from one side of the street to the other, just as the truck roared past behind me. The wind rushed past me, as I realized what I had done.
     "Celton... how did you do that?" Claire asked. I slowly looked down and saw that I was holding Claire in my arms. I stood her back up and started backing away from her.
     "I-I-I-I..." I stuttered as my heart pounded in my chest. In a panic I turned and started running towards the city's edge.
     "Celton, wait!" I heard Claire call out. I didn't stop running until I was out of the city, from which I took off flying at full speed towards Gohan's house. It didn't take me long to reach the mountainside home, and Gohan had rushed out to meet me.
     "Celton! What's going on?" He asked me.
     "Stupidstupidstupidstupid..." I mumbled incoherently.
     "Hey, calm down. What's wrong?" He asked again. I looked up with a bit of panic as I tried to control my breathing again.
     "I'm pretty sure she thinks I'm a superhero now..." I said.
