As Oliver and I sat down to watch TV, there was a knock on the door. "Is that the pizza guy?" I asked as Oliver sprang up to get the door. When he opened the door, a girl stepped in. Oliver shut the door behind her. She was about Oliver's height with straight, long black hair and blue eyes. She had on a gray short-sleeved t-shirt, and jeans with white converses. Although her outfit was plain she was cute.
She smiled at me when she saw me. "You must be Kaz. I'm Raven. Oliver's…"
"Girlfriend," Oliver finished. He was smiling and acting giddy.
Girlfriend? Am I dreaming? I stood up and walked over to her and touched her arm. She gave me a weird look. "What are you doing?" She asked.
"Making sure you're real," I replied.
Oliver removed my arm. "Okay, she's real."
I smiled at her. "Nice to meet you, Raven. But can you give Oliver and me a minute alone?"
She nodded. She was about to go on the terrace when she turned back around. "Oh, by the way, from the way Oliver talks about your superpowers they are awesome." She turned back around and went to the terrace.
HE TOLD HER ABOUT MY POWERS? When she left, I turned to Oliver. "How could you just throw Skylar away like that? She's only been gone a few months and you just turn around and find someone else and forget about her?" I asked angrily.
Oliver sighed. "Kaz, It's not like that. Look, it devastated me when she left. It devastated all of us. But, I had time to think about our relationship. I realized that nothing really happened between us. Sure, we went on a few dates but we never kissed or anything like that. I do still miss her a lot. But, I've moved on. A few weeks after she left, I went to the park to think. I met Raven and it all went up from there. I'm sorry I didn't tell you guys about her. I was going to; I was just waiting for the right time. Raven's amazing and she likes me for me", he explained.
I nodded. "Okay, I get it. I forgive you for not mentioning her. But, you broke the superhero code and told her about my powers."
He nodded. "Yeah, I told her about all of us." WHAT?
"Oliver. Why did you do that?"
Oliver gave me a look. "Isn't it obvious? I trust her. A lot. She swore not to tell a living soul. Besides, she already knew about Chase and Bree. Everybody does", he defended.
I felt my anger level going down. "Fine. As long as she doesn't tell anybody else it's cool. You know what, I'm happy you found someone."
Oliver smiled. "Thanks Kaz. So is it cool if she hangs out with us?"he asked.
"Why not?"
We went out on the terrace and found Raven and Chase talking at a table on the terrace. "Hurry up and rescue her dude. He might be boring her to death," I said out of the corner of my mouth. Oliver didn't respond. He just stood there staring at both of them. I think he was jealous. We both came up to them. They didn't notice us.
"You know, I've always thought that out of you, Bree, and Adam that you have the coolest powers. Sure, Adam has super strength and Bree has super speed but your powers are way cooler." Raven said.
Chase smiled. "Really? Thanks. So, do you want to see my newest invention?"
Oliver cleared his throat. They both looked up. Raven smiled when she saw us.
"Hey, guys."
Oliver told Chase, "Raven and Kaz and I have plans." Chase nodded.
Raven got up. "Nice meeting you Chase. I got to go. We can look at your new invention another day."
He nodded and smiled. "Nice meeting you too."
Oliver and Raven walked away and I was about to join them when I decided to talk to Chase. Chase turned towards me. "Did you see that? She actually wants to see my inventions and she said I'm her favorite!" he exclaimed. He was very excited.
"Yeah. I wonder what's wrong with her."
Chase gave me a look. "There's nothing wrong with her. She's amazing. We are actually alike. We are both smart, we both love science, and we like the same movies and TV shows. Plus, she's beautiful."
I sighed. I suddenly saw the problem. I sat down. "Chase, look. She's dating Oliver."
Chase sighed. "I know but I can't wish my feelings away. Don't worry. I'm not going to try to sabotage them or anything. It's just that I've never met anyone like her."
I nodded. "I know. She's dating Oliver. I wonder why she is dating him you said you two were alike. Oliver isn't really like you."
He nodded. "True."
"Anyways, just try to back off a little. You saw Oliver. I think he realized what was going on and he got afraid."
Chase nodded. "I get what you're saying. Like I said, it's going to be hard to just forget about my feelings." I was about to turn around to go inside, but I thought of something.
"Chase, I won't tell Oliver about any of this."
He smiled. "Thanks. I really appreciate it."
I decided to change the subject. "Do you want to watch baseball?"
He laughed. "Sorry, Kaz. I'm lonely but not that desperate." I smiled and walked away to go hang out with Oliver and Raven.
