Puberty For Superheroes.

Chapter 45 - Elizabeth Goodwin

"We need to talk," Jace said bluntly. His blonde hair seemed darker with the light off in the hallway, his blue eyes deep like the ocean, and his fine body tone filled the doorframe like he was in a picture frame.

"Who is it?" Liz said coldly. She was laying on her stomach, wrapped up in her cozy blanket on her bed while texting her best friend, Emma, and also Ashton. She didn't bother looking who was at the door, she knew who it was, she was just being sassy.

Jace walked into her room, sitting down next to her on the bed and looked down at his sister, "I did some research in Mother Nature, and Joseph Walker guy. I couldn't find the exact location of Mother Nature's program, but I know that it's close to the border of Canada and America. Apparently she started the program when her best friend turned bad, and she has a child?!"

"Oh, come in." Elizabeth barked sarcastically. She flipped her frizzy blonde hair over her shoulder, rolling her eyes at her brother. She put her phone down, locking it and placing it on her pillow. She slowly sat up, pulling her blanket closer to her tiny frame.

"Don't push it, Lizzy," Jace warned. "Do you want to hear about the program or do you want me to go back to my job in America?" He narrowed his blue eyes at her, challenging his sister like they were playing a game.

"Sorry sorry! Continue, please." She quickly said, regretting being sassy with her brother.

"Anywho, I think her kid is around your age but I don't know for sure. I tried to find her child but I found nothing, so I went back doing research on Mother Nature's program. I wanted to get an interview with her when I came back to England but I heard she went back to the States. Just my luck." Jace grumbled.

"So how many of her students passed her program to be superheroes?"

"Nine out of ten become Superheroes. Just like high school there's that one kid that gets picked on and that turns bad for revenge. But I know you'll do great. Plus her program is letting her students go home on holidays to see family and keeping phone lines in the dorms." He said joyfully. He smiled brightly and chuckled, slowly laying down on Elizabeth's bed to gaze up at the ceiling with his deep blue eyes.

"Well that's good," Liz pushed her blanket off her shoulders and floated above her brother, so they made eye contact. "I get to call you every night and if her program is on the border of America then the time difference won't be so bad, you know?"

All he did was nod at her. With Elizabeth flying above her older brother, it was like they were eye and eye while standing, but deep down Jace preferred her to fly. He enjoyed seeing her flying like she had nothing to hold her down.

They stayed like that for a moment, Jace laying on the bed and Liz floating above him. Elizabeth's dark blue eyes stayed glue to her brother's deep blue, ocean eyes. She missed him dearly; she missed watching television together, making a mess in the kitchen when trying to make a snack, having deep conversations up all night, trail rides and shopping.

"Hey Lizzy?"

"Yeah?"

"Can I go with you to see the Lockets this weekend?" Jace asked softly, like he was soothing a baby. His Adams apple bobbed up and down, he clenched and unclenched his jaw; he was nervous.

"Yes, I don't see why not. Plus you can help me with the hard chores." Liz smirked, trying to get out of half her chores.

"The chores aren't hard over at the Lockets Lizzy, you're just being lazy." He narrowed his eyes at her, definitely knowing what plan she was cooking up. Even so, he knew Liz would pull a trick like that and he would end up doing all the chores anyhow.

"Guilty as charged." She laughed and flew out of her room, going downstairs.

Jace sighed, sitting up on the bed. Right when he stood up, Elizabeth's phone went off, and Jace couldn't help himself to see who the message was from. He picked up her phone and gazed down at the screen, it was from Emma. Jace only read the first thing he saw;

Lizcapper_13 - I'll b right back, Jace is here.

Emma_theif32 - your lucky u have a hot bro

Emma_theif32 - hurryyyyyyyyyy back here!!! I need attention!

Jace frowned and put Elizabeth's phone back. He knew he was good looking but having his sister's friends, whom were thirteen year olds, drool over him was a bit creepy.

He loitered out of his sister's room, dragging himself downstairs to make a desert for himself. When he passed the living room he saw Liz eating from a pint of vanilla ice cream. He quickly got a spoon from the kitchen and plopped himself down by his sister, digging into the ice cream while watching Dr Strange.
