Chapter 3

Smash dropped me off at my house after 3 bus rides and 2 trains. He walked me up to my door and sighed.

"Are you sure you know how to get to your house from here? Or wherever you need to go, like a secret hideout or something?" I asked. He chuckled slightly at my choice of words.

"Yea, I know where to go from here. Are you sure you'll be okay alone?" I could hear the worry in his voice. 

"Of course! My parents should be home soon," I lied. "I'll be fine,"

"Are you absolutely sure? Because I could stay if I need to. I don't really have a schedule to keep," I smiled at him. Did he want to stay with me?

"Well, as much as I would love to invite you in, I think my parents would completely freak out if they found me with a superhero in my living room," I laughed. Smash nodded in understanding.

"I guess I'll see you around, then," he told me, looking at the floor.

"Yeah," I sighed. I wasn't going to lie, he was attractive. "Thanks, again. I honestly can't thank you enough. I was scared I would die in there,"

"Fallen Angel is a bit of a lunatic. He needs some help..." he trailed off. We stood awkwardly on my doorstep for a few moments, looking at our feet. 

"I'll see you, then," I said.

"Yup. This isn't the last of me. Where there is a damsel in distress, I'll be there. Where there is a lost cat in a tree, I'll be there! Where there is any crime, I'll! Be! There!" He waltzed down my steps, arms open wide, practically screaming about how he would never rest until there was no crime left.

"Okay, okay!" I whisper-yelled. "Just keep it down! I don't want the neighbors yelling at me!"

"Alrighty, then," Smash said as he slowly walked down the sidewalk. "Until next time," I nodded at him, waiting for him to actually leave. He blew a kiss my way, making me blush a crimson red. I quickly went inside my house, hoping he didn't see how red my face was. Once I closed the door behind me, I leaned against it and slid to the floor, hugging myself. I was just abducted, told that a creep was video taping me, almost died, then was saved by some guy named Smash who had super strength and taken home by him. Then, he blew me a kiss. 

What was I getting into?

I walked into my room, glad to finally be home. The familiar red and black walls brought a sense of comfort to me. I flopped onto my bed, trying to take in all of today's events.
