Workout showoffs (Vance)

Later that evening, after finishing our homework and dinner, the guys and I decided to go to the local gym. It would be a good opportunity to practice our superpowers. 

Plus, we wanted to get buffed up so we could show other people that they can't push us around.

We already went home and changed our clothes so we can get ready to have some fun working out. With our dufflebags full of protein bars, wrapped up hamburgers, and water bottles, Tekmen and I entered the gym.

The gym was located in a business centre. You know, when there are a few other small businesses around it? That's the place that was surrounding the gym.

After checking in at the front desk, the guys and I got to working out. Jeremy and I went over to the bench press and started lifting 50 ppund weights.

Spencer was lifting himself up and down on a workout machine that strengthens your back muscles.

Vince was obviously on a treadmill, pushing the speed button as he began to run on it. Using his superspeed of course.

Gerard and Zack were busy lifting dumbbell weights while on a workout bench. After three minutes, the guys and I took a break.

Crowding around each other, we wolfed down our burgers, and ate our protein bars. As we drank some water, we noticed that Spencer wasn't drinking any water.

Spencer apparently forgot his water bottle at home so he went over to the water jug and filled up a plastic cup.

He stood there getting water from the water machine before another guy bumped into him. Spencer's water spilled on his shirt. 

"Watch where you're going, man." Spencer answered. Our blue haired friend looked a little surprised when he saw that the guy who bumped into him was a buff guy. He was high school age and was wearing a sweatshirt.

But even with the sweatshirt, we could tell that he was muscular.  His brown hair was long and messy, plus, he was 5,12. All of us were either 5,9 to 5,10. Vince was 5,8 heh heh.

"You should watch where you're going, punk", buff guy responded truffle as he walked past Spencer, who stood ther feeling kinda small.

"Who's he callin' a punk?" Spencer muttered under his breath as he watched the guy get on one of the machines.

Soon, Vicky and Lisa showed up. Vicky, as usual, wore her pink sweatpants along with Lisa. Lisa, again, as usual, was smiling and staring at Jeremy as he lifted himself on a machine.

"Vicky, what are you doing here?" Jeremy asked as he wiped his black sleek hair with a towel. "Lisa and I came here so we could work out. Working out isn't just for guys, you know." Vicky answered as she hopped on a treadmill.

After working out for a few extra minutes, Tekmen and I decided to leave. Vicky and Lisa chose to stay, but it was obvious that Lisa wanted to tag along just to be with Jeremy.

"What's with Lisa staring at me with that bothersome mushy look in her eyes all the time?" Jeremy complained.

"Isn't it obvious, man? She has a crush on you?" Spencer said flatly. He was still thinking about the buff guy who made him feel weak.

After we all climbed in to a green minivan that was apparently Gerard's dad's van, we pulled out of the centre's parking lot.

We told him that we felt the same way when we saw him. "But neither of you guys came face to face with him. He was like Hulk Junior or something."

That buff guy at the gym was kinda intimidating because of his big muscles. Either he was using muscle build and protein powders, or he's taking steroids.

Anyway, the guys and I went home, changed our clothes, and went back out again. We chose to head over to Gerard's house.

Once we were in the Nelson house, Gerard had us follow him up to his room. We all flew up the stairs with the exception of Vince superspeeding on the wall.

When we finally were in his room, Gerard locked the door. We all sat down and started comparing notes as to what we knew about getting buff.

It would take time, but then again, we're all superteens, so it could happen much faster than usual.
