Superman And His Strength

Kent

This school seems kind of weird like ever since I've arrived, all the girls keep drooling over me. Not in a good way either. They just stare at me like mindless drones and it's really creepy.

So, today during free period, I walked down the hallway with my black hoodie and I kept my head low so no one could see me. The girls started staring as usual and I could feel it even when I couldn't see them so I looked up. And they all screamed and ran away in a jiffy. I held my stomach and doubled over laughing as I removed my Halloween mask that scared them.

I would love to see them try and stare at me now.

The day's about to get over and as that girl, Lane had said, something did spread about me but it wasn't anything that I cared about. They spread a rumor about me dating this girl named Sarah in our school; needless to say it was just a rumor. This girl did try to flirt with me on numerous occasions but I really didn't give a damn. I'm not interested in relationships, I was quite interested a while ago but now, I really don't feel it. But what I did feel was sad that those idiots actually took time and effort to spread the rumor in such a horrendous way. It was quite brutal really, the pics they got and god knows what false evidence they must've used. I feel really bad that their effort had gone to vain. But what I felt even worse for was the fact that this was done to me not because I harmed them or anything but just because I talked to Lane.

But this girl Lane is something different when I first heard of her, I thought of her as this sweet girl who happens to be bullied. Nothing new there, but how can one conversation completely change the way you view a person? She seems really extraordinary as a person and it makes me feel sad that no one else sees her as that. She tries so hard to blend into the school but she can't see the bright light that follows her. It's almost impossible to miss it. But yet she is the one who is targeted in our school. Maybe I don't know much and maybe it's not my place to tell but I have a very strong and uncontrollable urge to go wipe the smug smiles that the 'Fantastic Four' wear on their faces after they see someone fall. I'm really waiting for the moment they fall so we all can look at them with the same smug smile except on our faces instead.

School's over and I'm walking down the hallway when I pass a locker and the thing that makes it stand out is its color. It has the word 'Nerd' spray painted in black on it. I feel bile rise up in my throat and I really want to punch Sean's face as I see him walk a few feet further than me whistling with a black spray paint can. I am about three seconds away from reaching him when my best friend Gavin pulls me back.

"He's not worth it." Is Gavin what says, I think.

But that's not what I think. I think about how much more she is worth. I think about her happiness and the value of that. And how all of this can't even be put into an equation that could have a mathematical solution.

I push the thought away, for now. But I have an idea for this problem and it may not be a solution...

What if I brought out who Sean really is?

Or bring down the 'Fantastic Four'?

After all, they aren't contributing anything good to our society.
