From the corner of my eye I see red and blue sirens dancing back and forth. Shit. I stumble forward in an attempt to escape before I fall to the ground.

"AHH!!" I hear a scream of agony coming from the damn ginger as he gets shot trying to run away. I smile a little as everything just goes black.

—————————————————————————

I slam the door open angrily and shove my hands into my pockets. The ginger slowly follows behind me and I start to remember what happened. I hold my wound as I start to get pissed off at myself before I realize... My Aunt. SHIT! I can't go home she's going to..... I start pacing my the room when I feel a hard grasp on my shoulder.

"Where are you going?" The ginger asks calmly.

"I- don't know..." then I realize, "heyyyy ginger, I know we just had a fight and got in trouble with the police and also found something cool about both of us but, can I stay with you?" He looks at me with a confused expression slightly tainted with anger. I start to realize what I just said and look at the tv we're walking by.

"Two teenagers have showed signs of having superpowers. One Fire, One Water. From what we saw these are what the teenagers look like" Two photos pop up of- shit. "Their names are Oaklynn Ryans and Haruto Tillian." Fluffy Ginger stops in his tracks and turns to the screen.

"Oh fuck." He says.

"Soooo can I stay-" I start getting dragged by Haruto— I think that's his name — to somewhere I don't recognize.

"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME LOOK WHAT HAPPENED NOW!!! CAN MY LIFE GET ANY WORSE?!?" Haruto screamed as I lay on his couch eating poptarts.

"You're being too loud were going to get caught if you don't shut up."

"ITS YOUR FAULT SO SHUT UP!"

"Well if you didn't walk up to me then this wouldn't be a problem" I snap as I nibble at the pop tart.

He plops on the couch with his hands buried in his face. I turn to him and watch him whine. "Why couldn't we go to your apartment..?"

"My Aunt."

"Right" Haruto looks at his hands and shivers. "I have powers, I have FUCKING POWERS" He shouts loudly.

"Yup." I finish my pop tart and lick my fingers. "Delicious."

"The only good food I have, and you eat it" He glares.

"You should've asked for some."

"I'm not hungry."

"I can order shit for us because, technology."

"What-"

"Technologyyy" I chuckle and give him jazz hands. Haruto looks kinda disappointed; well, I tried.

"So where am I sleeping..?" I sadly ask.

"Either sleep with me or on the couch."

"What if I don't want either?" I ask calmly with a smirk.

"Then leave"

"Damn alright.... I'll sleep with you then." I lay my head back on the silk and smooth couch and close my eyes thinking about what my aunt would say if she ever saw me again. I'm screwed...

"So no TV then..?" I questioned him. I look back down at the blank and depressed looking television waiting desperately to be turned on.

"It doesn't work." Haruto turns to me with a bitchy face. I start looking through my phone for some tv's to buy him since I'm going to be staying here for.... a while.

"What are you doing?" He asks as he leans over to look at my phone.

"Buying you a new television. Do you have a phone?"

"No, and don't do that!" He screeches as I buy him both a phone and a new television. I look slightly down at the delivery date and it says it's coming tomorrow, great.

"You bought it anyways, you rich or something..?" He asks annoyed.

"My parents were actors so I get the money that they earned."

"Were..? What happened?"

"I'll tell you later I don't want to talk about it..." I look back down on my phone and go to Netflix. "Let's watch shows for now, Okay?"

"Okay..." he replies in an upset tone.
—————————————————————————

I cook the chicken in a rough pan I found in Haruto's kitchen. Beans fizzle in a pot beside it. I sense someone behind me before I remember Haruto's here, standing behind me, watching me cook our dinner.

"All I've had for the past few months was ramen and box pizza, thanks for this..." he says in a surprisingly calm tone.

I turn towards him and smile, "no problem.." I turn back around and continue cooking the food.

A couple minutes pass and Haruto's and I sit down and start eating, I see sparkles in his eyes when I look up. I guess he likes it. I continue eating.
—————————————————————————
I lay down in bed and start thinking about my day as Haruto lies down next to me. I turn away from him and scoot closer to the edge of the bed. I hope this is all a dream... I close my eyes and slowly, but surely, fall asleep....
