Mahlia spent the rest of the day in Amy's room avoiding Colby because she was too embarrassed

she didn't tell Amy about what happened though

"can we go down stairs im so hungry." Amy begs

"can you get some for me." Mahlia says trying to avoid Colby because she knew he'd be down there

"no. get it urself." Amy pulls Mahlias hand and Mahlia yells because she was painting her nails and Amy smudged them

not caring Amy brought her down to the fridge

"hey Mahl." Colby said from the table

Mahlia got super nervous, "hi Colby." she looked down at the ground

"what on earth was that?" Amy looked at the two, "why are you guys talking like you just met."

the pair didn't reply to Amy


Colby's POV

Mahlia has been ignoring me the whole day

i think i really messed things up

she gave so many signs that she liked me then just ran off. i gave so many signs that i also like her aswell.

she finally came down stairs at 3pm, i need to get her to talk to me. because we both know we like each-other come on. or does she? does she not know i'm crazy over her. the whole time she hated me. i didn't hate her for a second.

when she and Amy came down she ignored me completely.

"hey Mahl." i tried to break the silence

"hi Colby." she looked straight back at the ground

maybe she is just embarrassed?

when Amy left with her food i finally got the courage to say something, "why are you ignoring me? i'm still me. i'm still ur bestfriend."

she didn't even know how to make eye contact with me. she looked guilty. what would she be feeling guilty about?

Mahlias POV

i felt so guilty.

what if he finds out i'm a superheroe, i don't wanna hurt him. if they go back to being villains i'll be expected to fight him and i couldn't do that. but if i didn't i'd be kicked out of my job. is he really more important to me than my job?

Colby would never want to be anything but a villain but how could i blame him, i don't want to be anything but a superhero.

"why are you ignoring me? i'm still me. i'm still ur bestfriend." Colby looks up at me

"i'm sorry it's just you and me can't happen. ever." i saw his eyes sadden in confusion

"why not? it's like your not telling me something." Colby sat their fiddling his fingers

he was right.

i was hiding the fact that i'm a superhero and when he finds out he's never gonna speak to me again, i try to think of an answer to his question but can't.
