"Looks like we have a clear morning today." Gear said to Static.

The two superheroes were on patrol, looking for any criminal activity whether from normal people or bangbabies in Dakota city. But on this clear monday morning, no criminal activity was going on within the city.

"I think we can actually go to school today." Gear continued.

Usually Static and Gear patrol the city every morning, weekdays and weekends. In every morning there will always be something going wrong in the community and because of that both of them would usually miss their first few classes at school. But since there wasn't anything for them to do, Gear thought it would be great to go to school and not miss another day.

"you think so?" Static asked nervously.

"Yeah! and its a good day to set our plan into motion!" Gear cheered.

"That's what I was afraid of..." Static sighed.

Static quickly started to fly away at a considerable speed.

"whoa! wait up." Gear yelled out after him.

Static was thinking about what Gear had suggested, about setting the plan into motion. Virgil and Richie have both started building strong feelings for their close friends Daisy and Freda. When they both told each other about their growing feelings, they thought of the idea to confess to the girls on the same day so they would both build up courage to do it. Since today was a good day to do it, Gear wanted to give it a shot.

"Hey! Static, what's wrong?" Gear caught up to Static and grabbed his sleeve to stop him.

"I don't know, I'm kinda nervous about the whole thing." Static confessed.

"Dude, I'm doing this with you. I'm nervous too, but I rather give this relationship thing a shot. We've never had a girlfriend before and this is the first time we both wanted to chase after a girl." Gear said. " We have to make the most of our 16 year."

"But... what if they reject us?"

" That's a risk we will have to take." Gear closed his eyes and looked down at the ground.

Static started getting mad at himself because now he is bringing his best friend's mood and confidence down. He gave himself a mental slap in the face and straighten himself up.

"You're right! We should do our best!" Static pumped his fist in the air." Besides what girl wouldn't want to be with Static and Gear?!"

Gear looked up at him and smiled." Alright, my man!"

Static and Gear high fived each other and started flying to their school. They landed a mile away from the actual school so they would be able to change back into their normal casual selves.

"Well, it feels great to be out of uniform for awhile." Richie stretched.

"kinda, I'm actually not looking forward to class. well, except science class."

"That's because it's your favorite subject." Richie laughed. "Like math is to me."

They were just about at the school gate when they both spotted Freda and Daisy walking and talking to each other as they were walking to school.

Virgil and Richie took a huge gulp as they watched them.

They both waited until Freda and Daisy were at the school to watch them separate since they both had different homeroom classes.

"well, here I go V. I wish you luck." Richie patted his shoulder as he started walking toward the direction Daisy went.

"You too.." Virgil whispered to himself.

Virgil then started walking to the school and into the building toward the lockers, he didn't need to pick anything up from his locker, that is just where Freda had walked to. He usually had his things in his backpack. At the middle of the hall, he saw Freda at her locker, picking out the books to take with her. Virgil looked around and over his shoulder to see if anyone was around. He noticed the whole hallway was empty, this comforted him a bit.

He started walking toward her. She shut her locker as he just approached her.

"oh hi, Virgil." Freda smiled.

Virgil was just stunned by her smile, and the way her nice long hair fell onto her shoulders. He was amazed at how she can make every move graceful and lovely without evening trying.

"Oh...umm... yeah,hi Freda." Virgil smiled back as he snapped out of it.

"We should be going to class now, do you want to walk me there?" She laughed.

"Sure I don't mind...But I like to tell you something first."

"Oh really? what is it?" She asked.

Virgil was looking at her the whole time but now he started to look down at the ground as his heart started racing, and face started feeling hot.

" I... um... I just wanted to say... that I... " he stuttered." That is... I mean..."

" virgil, are you ok?" Freda stepped closer as she placed her hand on his forehead." I think you might be getting a fever. I think you should see the nurse."

Virgil calmed himself down as he grabbed her hand from his head and just held it there at eye level.

"huh?" Freda said.

"No, I don't need to see the nurse." Virgil said as he placed his other hand on top of hers. "I'm like this because of you, this is how you make me feel."

"what?"

"We have been friends for a very long time and before I knew it I was enjoying being around you more and more. I like to spend more time with you and to get to know you better than I do now. Freda, I wanted to ask you if you want to be my girlfriend." Virgil looked into her eyes with his soft chocolate brown eyes." Would you be my girlfriend?"

Freda just looked at him wide eyed, she was rendered speechless, she didn't know to say. Virgil was hoping that she became speechless because of how touched she was by his words.

"Virgil...I...I'm sorry!" Freda said as she yanked her hand for his soft grasp and started slow running down the hall toward her classroom.

Virgil just stood there with his hand still extended out as if he was reaching out to her. Virgil's heart broke in two from the rejection and almost had a tear run down his face but he rubbed his eyes with his arm before that happened.

"why...?" Virgil asked himself as he placed his hand to his chest. He started slowly walking toward his classroom.
