Disclaimer: First, I forgot to do this in Meet Boji, I do not own Mighty Med, Disney XD does. I also do not own Pearl by Katy Perry. Second, I am so glad to have another story coming! I really want some reviews, so I would like to say, Meet Boji might sound interesting, or it might not. I will tell you that you will love the OCs and hopefully like the story. Though, if you don't review, that won't stop me from making stories, so don't worry those who can't review. (I am one of you, I have no idea how to review someone else's story, though I would like to. I also don't know about PMing, so if you want to say something to me, please write it in the reviews, because chances are if you PM me I won't know what to do, or even receive the PM, if that's how PMing even works.) Third, I have seen some writers not write a songfic, but suggest a song to listen to while reading a story. I will try this sometimes. Let's start. I recommend listening to Katy Perry's song, Pearl, while reading this story. Here's the story!
Oliver's POV:
A recent attack had left a group of four heroes very injured. I was working hard, along with many other doctors and nurses, to heal them. It would take awhile, but they would be back to normal, I could tell. There was one thing that had me perplexed, though. These particular heroes were only supposed to be guarding Mighty Med. They had been attacked for no apparent reason, not for saving someone or something. No one even knew who the villain was, we would have to ask once the heroes came to consciousness.
I looked around and saw Skylar staring at the injured heroes. I knew she felt bad she couldn't be there to help them, but everyone else used common sense to know she could be injured much worse than these four. I remembered her reaction to not being allowed to be a part of the Guards of Mighty Med. It had made her feel worthless, and I had done everything I could to cheer her up. I hated seeing her unhappy. Unfortunately, I was too busy to go over there and talk to Skylar. I heard her sigh and leave the room. I shook the bad thoughts out of my head. There would be time for Skylar, later.
Skylar's POV:
I didn't know whether to feel angry, hurt, or frustrated. Ever since I had lost my powers everyone treated me like some Normo kid! Even Oliver and Kaz had a place, and they're Normos! Me, no. I don't have a place at Mighty Med, one and only superhero hospital, you know why? Because, when I lost my powers I was no longer considered a hero!
Oliver's POV:
Finally, I got a work break. Well, sort of. Kaz saw how much I wanted to talk to Skylar, so he offered to take over my shift. He's a good friend. I found her walking down the hall, probably back to her room.
"Skylar, wait!" I cried.
She spun around, surprised. She probably thought she was alone. "Umm, Oliver." said Skylar, "What are you doing here? Aren't you working a shift?"
"Uh, yes- I mean, no, I mean, Kaz took over for me." I shook my head. My brain hated my mouth for getting tongue tied whenever I looked into Skylar's eyes. "I wanted to talk to you." I said, trying to pretend like the last twelve words I had said never happened, "Are you okay."
"Yeah, I'm fine." said Skylar, but her voice gave her away. It shook in the way of someone holding back their emotions.
"Skylar," I said, softly, "I know your situation isn't... ideal, but I promised I would get your powers back, and I will."
"Well, what am I supposed to do until then!" cried Skylar. She let her frustration and hurt and anger flow out. "Sit around here and act invisible!"
I stared, in shock, at her outburst. It wasn't the first time this had happened, but she had never been so blunt to how she was feeling, and she had never turned on me. Some other doctor, sure. But never me. "Skylar, please understand!" I cried. "I can't just bring back your powers whenever I want, and if I could, I would! I don't have a cure yet, and I still have other patients to take care of!"
Skylar clenched her fists and took a deep breath. "Well, then," she said, softly, "I guess I'll keep on being a nobody until that day comes."
She then turned and walked off. I was horrified. Was that really what she thought of her self? How could she not see how special and amazing she was? How could she not see that someone did need her? Me! I hoped she was speaking from anger. I hoped this whole conversation could just disappear.
Skylar's POV:
I felt terrible. Oliver had been looking out for me, trying to make me feel better! And I pushed him away. What kind of a friend was I? I knew that without him and Kaz, my life would be miserable. I wanted to apologize, but something held me back. I couldn't face him, or anyone for that matter. Going over what I had said, in my head, I knew it was all true. Denial and facades kept me feeling okay, but saying it out loud made me think about it. What if I never got my powers back? What if I spend the rest of my life, waiting in this stupid hospital in vain? What if Kaz and Oliver move, and I'm left alone? Someday, someday soon, I would have to do something. I would have to leave the hospital.
Kaz's POV:
Oliver came back into the main office, looking miserable.
"Hey, what's wrong? Did you ask Skylar out? Did she reject you?" I teased.
"No," Oliver sighed, "I didn't ask her out, but she did kind of reject me."
I was deeply confused. I teased Oliver all the time, but I didn't actually mean it. I had my suspicions that Skylar liked Oliver. He's a good guy. She would be lucky to have a guy like Oliver. I never thought she could say anything to make Oliver feel this bad.
"Hey," said Boji, walking in. I was still getting used to her hanging around us. It sometimes felt weird to strike up conversations with a wolf.
"H-hey Boji." I mumbled nervously. But her attention was not on me.
"You look like someone got your tail stuck in a doorway, what's wrong?" she asked Oliver.
"My what stuck in a what?!" asked Oliver.
"Whoops! cried Boji. "That's something we say on REBMA. It means, 'you look really sad.'"
The canine superhero was still adjusting to speaking normally, much like Skylar.
"Well, Boji." started Oliver, "Skylar feels really bad about losing her powers, and it's all my fault!"
"What did you do?" asked Boji.
"Well, I…" Oliver trailed off, unable to finish his sentence.
"Exactly." said Boji, "You did nothing to make this your fault. In fact, of all of us, you are probably the best to Skylar! You never make her feel like an outcast for not having powers!" Boji shot a look at me. She had heard about the "Fantasy League of Heroes" incident. "You always include her and make her feel special and needed! You are just doing your job. You have done nothing wrong." I was surprised by how passionate Boji was about the topic.
"Boji," Oliver said, "I…want her to be happy. I-I love her."
"Oh," said Boji. We thought Boji would be surprised, but what came next surprised us. "I know that. You humans are so weird. When Fang liked me, he came right out and said it. Us wolves-we don't waste time."
Our mouths hung open. How did she know?!
"Oh, please." said Boji, "Oliver, you reek of love for Skylar. Plus, those expressive eyes of yours never fail me."
"Thanks a lot, Mom." mumbled Oliver.
"I feel that she does like you, if not as a girlfriend, as a friend. She did not mean what she said. Go to her, Oliver, she'll make things right." Boji said.
Boji's speech was inspirational. I could tell that Oliver felt much better. "Yeah!" I cried. "Go to her Oliver. Boji's right! She cares about us. She cares about you. Figure out what's on her mind. Of all people, I know you can make this right!"
"I will!" yelled Oliver, "I will go to her. The Skylar in the hallway was not the Skylar I know and love. I will help her through this. Just wait and see!" Boji jumped up and down excitedly.
Horace walked up to us. "Why are you celebrating talking to Skylar, when you could just talk to Skylar?"
Classic Horace, I thought.
"...Oh," said Boji.
"I should be going." said Oliver.
"Yeah, you should." said Horace.
And with that, Oliver sped off down the hall to Skylar's room.
How was that? Boji's speech really made me feel pumped while I was writing, did it make you feel pumped reading? Poor Skylar. I tried to blend the perfect balance of comedy and drama into this chapter. Did I do well? Please review! Be back soon.
