Superman

"Ah, it sure is a beautiful day today," I said to Gaia with a bright smile on my face.

Everything just seemed so much brighter today, the birds chirping, the sky looking so bright today, and even the shower seemed so much nicer.

"Oh, what makes you say so, dear?" Gaia asks while chuckling

"it's just an enjoyable day" I reply, grinning "

"Does it have anything to do with that boy that- ". Had

"I'll get it," I say, but Gaia gets ahead of me and says.

"That's okay dear". She opens the door and the expression on her face changes; she seemed shocked and scared. I slowly walk in defensive mode up to her to check who it is at the door once I see what, or rather who she was seeing...

It is Grayson at the door. I feel the butterflies in my stomach flutter, and I get excited "Hi" I greet him, and I do not even try to hide my excitement

"hey" he says, just as excited with a grin. His smiles always get me; he just looks so perfect.

" I couldn't stop thinking about you so I couldn't wait to see you, I hope I didn't come at a bad time"

I couldn't stop thinking about you, too; I say in my head

"No, not at all, it's always good to see you" I know it's very cringy and cheesy, but he does things to me and makes me feel things I haven't felt before. I would follow him into a fire right now.

"wonderful let's take a walk," he says while extending his arm.

“By the way you are looking rather marvellous today”

“You don’t too bad yourself Mr Lucero”

“You know what the one perk of will be when being with me?”

“No, tell me”

“I never look bad”

We laugh and I roll my eyes at that. When we stop laughing, we have that electrifying eye contact again “Your eyes are the most beautiful thing in this realm”

“Says the man with the golden eyes” I say blushing

“If my eyes are golden then yours are diamonds baby”

“Yeah right, “I say rolling my eyes

“Aria, I’m giving you a compliment that you more than anything deserves. Accept it because you are more than any compliment I could ever give”

I look at him and he has the most serious face

"You are an angel baby girl," he says while touching my face and he leans in for a kiss putting his hands on my hips and pulling me closer to him. His lips feel so soft with his stubble feeling a little rough; his tongue is gentle at first; then he gets rougher and more demanding; he smells like a mix between a forest and almonds; his mouth tastes minty.

He pushes me onto the tree and puts my legs on his hips; the kiss is passionate and needy. I moan into the kiss as he slips his hand into my shirt. The sparks and fireworks flying in my mind, it feels like electricity lighting my body. We kiss till we are breathless, till we cannot anymore.

We are both panting breathing into each other's faces, my face in his hands; we stay in that position for so long; exchanging air being in arms makes me feel so secure and warm, his forest-like smell comforting me.

"We should probably head back we've been gone for so long" as he says that I look up at the rest of the park and we are so far and I immediately get lazy and make a face, he laughs.

"Getting sluggish love?" he asks

"Ugh how did we walk all the way" he laughs harder

"Don't worry love I'll carry you" Now it is my turn to laugh

"Yeah sure superman," I say sarcastically.

I start to walk back, and I am suddenly whooshed from my feet.

"What are you doing!?" I scream at him, and he chuckles. His chest vibrates. He looks so dreamy when he laughs,

"And we're here princess" huh

"what how did you walk so fast from all the way there?" I ask worryingly,

"As you said honey, I'm superman" as he flexes his arms and winks. I roll my eyes and scoff

"What time of day is it now?"

"Oh, it is midday" oh no

"Shit, shit, shit oh my gosh" I'm having a mini panic attack

"Princess what's wrong, breath, breath princess" he holds my arms with a worried face trying to calm me down and we do breathing exercises

"I'm late for my job interview thingy," I tell him, and he lets out a sigh of relief

"Is that it babe" His calling me babe makes me have a tingly sensation

"What do you mean is that it? it'll be a bad first impression? I will look irresponsible, immature and nobody will take me seriously

"Ugh don't worry about it I'll take you and explain the situation" this guy, though.

"What! That is a terrible idea I will go alone" he stands right in front of me, holds my hands, and says, "do you trust me? "Before I can think about it, I find myself saying

"Of course, I do" oh okay, wow I cannot believe I mean it.

"Great so let's go"

We arrive at the records office reception and fill out some forms. My hands get clammy and sweaty from nervousness when the receptionist calls my name. We walk to the reception desk,

"You are aria Valentio?" I clear my throat before I answer

"Yes I am" it comes out coarse and dry. Before I could explain anything, I feel a cold hand on the small of my back. The receptionist's composure and professionalism are knocked off; she looks frightened and nervous, so I look behind me and I see Grayson

"Tori get miss Valentio another interview slot please" he has changed, to her he looks so tall and dominant like a leader, which is different, but I kind of like it

"Right away, sir" I suddenly feel like I didn't really know him. We all have different sides to us.

"See I told you to trust me," he says with his world-famous smile

"Thanks a lot, I appreciate it" I really do

"anytime, any day princess" I get on my tippy toes to kiss him on the cheek, and he chuckles, then grabs my hips, bringing me closer to him and kissing me. I put my hands around his neck, and we walked out and continued making out in the middle of the parking lot.

"I should get home princess; do you need a ride home? "

"With what?" He grins and looks back at his car. Where did that come from?

"shall we princess" I nod and move with him. His car is a black convertible sports car with purple lights on the edges. It is a cool car. He starts the car and I feel the wheels moving so I look out and the car hovers. I might have lost memory, but I know that cars are not supposed to hover. He sees my amazed face and laughs,

“I thought we just teleported here,” I say

"Hold on tight princess I don't really need it, but I like its look. People from your realm make interesting things"

I am still dumbfounded by this car. The car blitzes through until I get home. I feel like I just rode a rollercoaster; my stomach is jumbled up, and I do not think I can stand up without vomiting right now.

"You okay princess?"

I nod, unable to speak. Grayson laughs at me and says, “Get used to it. It is a magic world princess, literally”
