THE INBETWEEN

CHAPTER 3

PROGRESS>>>

Days rolled by, I and victory got to know each other very well, sang a couple of songs together at school, talked about a lot of things, I taught her everything she needs to know about her powers

----------
"so, you think victory should be your girlfriend?" great asked
I looked into his eyes "no, why? "
"dude, she's head over heels in love with you and you're asking me? "

I laughed "great, you're funny, yeah she's cute, cool and all, but I don't think she's in love with me "
TJ patted my back, "but you are"
"what do you mean I am" I asked
"you're not the kind of guy that keep secrets from us though, you leave your phone unlocked at night, and I go through your calculator" he laughed
"his what now? "great asked
"yeah, my what?" I repeated
"don't pretend, your secret diary obviously ,I see what you've been typing"

"okay wait, we'll talk about it later I promise" I said
TJ burst into laughter "I was just kidding, I don't even know your password, but you gave yourself away"

I smiled "fine what if I like her, we only kissed once, twice, thrice, I can't count, almost every time we go on a date "
"nice to hear" great said and walked to the front door

Then I stared at TJ "what do you know? "
"I know nothing" he said
"really?"
"just keep your powers safe" he whispered

I stared at him"you know? "
"am I that dumb? "
"how did you know? "

He sat beside me" I found out last year at camp, when you battled ghosts while the others were asleep "
"oh"
"yeah" he nodded
"please keep this as a secret"
"I will, I'm even surprised great hasn't found out about it yet"

"found out about what? "great appeared
"nothing, and how did you get here, weren't you at the front door? " I asked

Great grinned "I was,then I found out both of you were talking without me so decided to spy on you, only to find out I haven't found out about something yet, so what is it? "
"well... " TJ wanted to say but I quickly communicated with him through my mind
"don't tell him " I said

"well? "great persisted
"well, that progress has a crush on victory" he whispered

Great gawked "really "
I nodded "yeah, but I'm afraid she doesn't like me back"

Great laughed" then you're talking to the right person, you can call me great the love expert"
"love expert? That's new, I thought you loved being called great the scientist "

"that was until he solved a few relationship problems and declared himself the love expert" TJ said

"ever wondered why he doesn't have a girlfriend yet? " I asked and we all laughed

"I don't have a girlfriend cause I haven't found the right one yet, I need someone who's just like me"
"we know, smart,weird, creepy, you know, full you" I said

Then someone walked into the class, I stared at him and he looked back at me

"isn't that Mc abnormal?" I asked
"a celebrity always recognizes another celeb" TJ said
"we should become celebs too then" great replied
"guys be real" I laughed

Then;
"hey, boss man" Mc abnormal called and walked to my seat
"hey, big bro, what's up? " I stood up and walked to him also, we stopped halfway and shook hands, then he bowed
"what's this bro" I smiled
"literally you're a big man of course, so I, the lesser one have to greet you specially "
I laughed" nice meeting you here, I didn't know one of my favorites attends this school "
"now you know, I'm Samuel "
"you know me already, but call me progress ,nice meeting you "
"I'm not a pastor but remain blessed" he said and the class laughed

"so we hang out sometime? "I asked
"sure"
Then we shook hands, bro fisted(you know), hugged, and he left with his friends

"like we said, when a celebrity meets another, it's always drama " great said
"you know, we should start dancing on social media "TJ suggested
"maybe TikTok"
"or instagram"

"we should "I said "it will boost my career in the Music Industry "
"and maybe add some girls to the group" TJ said

Then we looked at all the girls in , sall were looking at us, I could feel their heart beats

"yeah, like victory and Ruth " I replied
"that's nice"
"we'll talk about it after school "
"okay sure" TJ agreed
