Faith POV
I slowly exit my house, closing the door quietly, not with my usual slam, due to the fact that it was extremely early. I walk to my car, a classic Toyota and open the door. Getting in, I drive off towards the small park which was situated on the other side of town. The reason for my endeavours lie in my friend, Charlotte. She was meeting a group of her friends and wanted me to meet them too, for some reason. Not that I don't like her friends, but models always make me feel fat. Charlotte is a female model who has appeared in multiple magazines across the globe and yet is content to have me, an average Joe, as a friend. I hope it's not for publicity as that would make me really annoyed.
I make it to the small park with 5 minutes to spare, so I walk slowly towards our rendezvous. Since I moved here, I had stumbled across the tiny park one night when I felt like the world was crashing down on my shoulders. I had been bullied at my Uni and almost dropped out if not for Charlotte keeping me focused on my dream, being a film director. I passed film with a distinction, I now work for Warner Bros on their action movies, my speciality. Even though I am terrified stiff of violence, I love violent films.
I finally make it to the tree in which I had my nervous breakdown under and sit on the dew-stricken grass. My coat barely covers my butt so a tiny bit gets wet. I glance up at the sun which has only just began it's journey into the sky, which was bright crimson, like a red wave. I loved sun-rises, they meant a start of something new, a chance to forgive and forget. I must have zoned out as the next thing I know, Charlotte is waving her hand impatiently in my face.
"Hey. HEY!" I jump, hitting my head against the tree. Charlotte laughs at me as I nurse my probably bruised head. I sometimes wonder if I am just a clown to her. She extends her hand down to me, her finger-nails finely coloured to represent the sea, she had told me that that was what they were shooting for a while. I graciously accept it, letting her help me to my feet. I feel a tad under-dressed compared to Charlotte, who had worn this.(Check Multi-Media section)
I was in a pair of jeans and a plain red t-shirt covered with a black leather jacket. She smiled at me with her perfect teeth, making me un-intentionality feel like dirt under her pristine finger-nails. I fake a smile, putting on the mask I always wear when I feel slightly hurt. It happens so often that I have begun to not notice when I do it, the mask has become another part of my personality. Charlotte had always noticed it at first, but now not even she noticed it.
"Where are your friends I'm supposed to be meeting?" I ask her, seeing as we are the only life in the park, beside a few birds and the occasional squirrel. She shook her head sadly.
"I un-invited them once I learnt of your 'History'" She added the air quotations, but I must have given off a confused expression as she elaborated, " They were that group back in your Uni who.." She left it there, not needing to explain further. I was glad that Charlotte cared that little bit about my emotional well-being.
"So what are we going to do then?" Charlotte shrugs to my question, the same one poised on her lips, yet I beat her to the punch.
We are about to trade options when a loud laugh echoes from behind us, a cruel sadistic laugh that I knew all-to-well.
"Well if it isn't Faithless" spoke the leader of the trio that had made my life in Uni a living hell. Her name was Nina Patel, a slim athletic girl who was the number one at Uni. Beside her stood her two little lap dogs, Sofia and Mia, twins who wanted to look more like Nina than each other. I give them all a death stare but remain quiet, looking over to Charlotte for an explanation. Charlotte just shrugs, not sure of their intentions.
"We didn't know you ditched us to hang out with Faithless here Charlotte" She lays a hand on my shoulder which I shake off like it's the plague, which to me, it was. Before I know it Charlotte and I have been surrounded by the trio and our backs are pressed into the tree, mine so hard that I thought that tree impressions would show on my back for weeks after.
"I always wanted to catch up Faithless,maybe we should start now" that statement is accompanied by a punch to my lower abdomen, causing air to be knocked out of me. I double over, trying to get oxygen back into my lungs. What I guess is an elbow crashes onto my back, knocking me onto the ground. I hear Charlotte screaming something but it is so high-pitched that only dogs could hear it.
"Leave now Charlotte, or do you want to end up like your 'Friend' here?" I hear the temptation in the question, even in my wounded state, I didn't want Charlotte to get hurt.
"Go" I barely whisper, but it comes out loud enough that Charlotte hears it. She nods and runs, leaving me with the terrible three-some. I brace myself for another punch when a loud booming voice echoes across the park.
"Leave the girl alone" We all look to see a man, wearing a pink suit, pink gloves,pink boots, pink hair-extensions and a black mask is hovering two feet away from us, his feet barely off the ground. He has short-ish brown hair which swoops from the right side of his head to the left. I can barely make out his blue eyes, but once I do, I can not stop staring at him. The other girls stare also, but with their mouths open at the super-hero that stands before them. I sit up, back resting against the tree while the un-known super-hero provides a perfect distraction from myself. The voice sounds so familiar, yet from what was eluding me.
Finally the silence is broken by Nina who says, " Who are you then?" Even me, a novice at love, can hear the flirty way she said those four words, snaking them around her tongue before releasing them with the charm only a popular girl possesses.
"My name is Super Luv" He replies. I glance down at his chest, seeing the black heart with 'SL' in pink. A lightning bolt runs behind the heart, the top and tip of the bolt the only part seen, the rest is obscured by the heart. The girls laugh, the name hilarious to them. I smile, the name seemed like pure gold to me at that moment.
"Hey, wait a minute. Why should we leave the girl, she's our friend" I hear the disdain in the word friend, like it hurt her just to utter those words about me. I involuntarily shudder, which does not go un-noticed. He looks over at me, I quickly shake my head, before ceasing when Nina looks down at me.
"I don't think so, for I watched you hit this girl and scare her friend" as he finishes that statement of fact, Nina launches forward, landing a punch on the not-ready super-hero. He moves back a couple of feet before punching her with his gloved fist. He must have super-strength or something as she flew into the tree I sat under, I barely rolled out of the way when her unconscious body's crashed where I had been sat. The twins stared, a mixture of fear and anger playing on their identical faces, before breathing out a battle-cry and punching Super Luv with all their might, knocking the super-hero to the ground. He lies there, groaning at the combined force of both twins protecting their leader.
They then both turn on me, anger boiling in their green eyes. I barely roll out of the way of Mia's punch when a pink mist picks me up and soon the world is moving so fast past me. I look up, seeing the masked face of Super Luv, his hands the ones that hold me so tight. He had saved me. Finally we stop at Venice beach, a quiet secluded place at the popular beach. He sets me down carefully, looking me over for any major injuries. He sees none and is about to fly off when I quickly say one thing to him.
"Thanks" I quietly say, he nods before flying off like a pink comet. I almost cry as he leaves, not wanting him to go. I had felt pure safety in his arms, a safety I now craved like a drug. Super Luv was my drug.
