Lab rats: Secretly Super

chapter 2

"So he has an alter ego named Spike?" I asked Leo once he came to pick me up from my class to nutrition like always.

He nodded and responded "I know! I can't wait to meet him but let's just hope he's not like your crazy alter ego Explosiva"

Leo and I shuttered at once when we walked out of class headed to the cafeteria.

It was currently nutrition, or breakfast, and we were meeting Adam, Bree, and Chase there right now.

Looking down one last time at my outfit I was currently wearing (a shoulderless long sleeve purple top with blue jeans and black combat boots, and hair up in a bun) I walked inside behind Leo meeting up with the three.

"Hey guys" Leo and I greeted in unison as they smiled back at us brightly.

First day of school is always the best feeling since it's one of your first somethings.

I bet Tasha made them all take a picture together before they left, typical Tasha.

"Okay you guys, that's Principal Perry. She has the temperament of a junk yard dog stuffed into a really bad pant suit." Leo said pointing over to a cubby woman about 4'8 with red hair and scary anger issues.

She looked over to Freddie Jason and shrieked "Hey you, no tongue rings in school! Don't try to hide it, I will take a metal detector to your face"

Breathing in deeply I sighed and said "it took me a year to kiss up to her so she could avoid me"

Bree looked over at one of the 'cute' guys and gushed looking off into the distance "This is it! My chance for romance. On T.V. the girl always drops her books and the cute guy with soulful eyes picks them up"

My eyes widened and I tapped her shoulder saying "Bree..." but it was too late.

Mr. Smith, my history teacher, slipped on her fallen books making the papers in his hands go everywhere.

When he got up Bree mumbled "Sorry, I'm new" as I helped Mr. Smith up and hand him back his papers.

After that little encounter Leo continued "Okay, your social life is determined where you sit. We can't sit at 'the cool' table," looking over to where the cheerleaders were sitting I rolled my eyes but I noticed the three look over at the table like it was gold.

Leo continued pointing at another table "but we can be cool table adjacent."

"F.Y.I. Adam just sat down at the cool table."

Leo panicked and rushed over to the cool table where Adam was making the girls laugh by placing two oranges over his eyes.

That right there is really sad, nothing else to do with their lives but laugh at a guy who covers his face with oranges.

"What! He can't sit there! That's where the football players sit with the cheerleaders, and they pride themselves on finding clever places to stuff your pudding cup." Leo explained panicked.

I placed a hand over his shoulder calming him down just a little bit.

"Those girls are actually talking to him." Chase said amazed.

"They can't talk about shapes and colors forever. See ya." He waved off making me gasp in shock.

This is why I don't like getting involved with guys, there will always be prettier girls gaining attention from the guy even if he's taken.

Not that he's taken or anything but let's just wait.

"There's a reason those girls talked to Adam. It's because most of them are all airheads" I mumbled over to Bree shaking my head in shame.
