The New Hero in Town(Max Thunderman x OC)

Part 6

I woke up and took a shower. I washed my face while i was in the shower.  I brushed my teeth. I dried and brushed my hair. I got dressed and did my make up because of how puffy my eyes were. I left my room and head to the door. My arms were sore from cutting so much. I was about to leave when i saw something, more like someone that surprised me. Max was waiting by the door.

"I usually leave with Phoebe but she has her friend soooo," Max said.

"I don't mind you walking with me," I said. 

We walked in silence for a while.

"So, don't you have super powers?" Max asked

"Yeah, they are elemental powers. I have super strength from my mom and a high IQ from my dad," I said.

"Even though your parents put you through hell, you still call them mom and dad?"

"No matter what they put me through, they are still my parents," I replied. He nodded.

"What are all you hobbies?"

"I paint, sketch, color, write, sing, and train," I said," How about you?"

"Nothing much, i train quite a bit. I used to want to be evil but i changed course and become a hero. Now Phoebe and I work together on defeating villains," max said.

"Oh," i said," I used to just stay in my room and work. My parents didn't allow me out of my room unless i had to go to work or school." He gave me a look of sympathy.

"Please don't give me that look," I told him," I hate it when people look at me like that." He nodded. We got to school and then separated. I went to my locker. I opened the door and some notes came out. I shoved them in my backpack, deciding to read them later. I went through the day as usual. I had to go back to work today. My boss gave me a couple day off, due to the incident.

After school, i went to my locker to see Max waiting there. I packed my stuff and we walked home together.

"So, one of your powers is super strength," Max said.

"Yes," i said

"Then why don't you fight back?" He questioned.

"I don't have that good of control over my powers. Up until i was 14 my powers grew, so i never got a real chance to take full control over them. If i tried to fight back, i'm afraid my other powers will show. So, i just let myself get beat up. Plus, i'm used to it, i mean-" I stopped myself, i can't tell him, i don't fully trust him yet. Why is he so easy to talk to? I mentally slapped myself," anyway."

"have you ever dated before," he asked. I nodded.

"See, i have, but it ended," he said.

"Same," I said, holding back tears. Memories flashed back through my mind. There was one of HIM hitting me, and then HIM kissing that slut cheerleader. She knew we were dating, she didn't care. I was stopped in my tracks by Max hugging me. I snapped back into reality, noticing that i started crying. Damn it, why can't i ever hold back my tears.
