My Past, Is Haunting Me...
Chapter 1 - Friends?
"I'm gonna stand strong
Nothing's stopping me
I'll be loud you'll hear me now
I'm gonna stand tall
Take it to the top I'll be free
Can't bring me down" - Stand - Meg Donelly, Trevor Tordjman
A/N: I don't own The Incredibles, neither the song. I only own my Original Characters. Written in Dora's P.O.V!
So, there my life goes. Being someone, who needs to hide her powers. I'm able to do some lightning. And it's pretty hard to hide it. You can believe me. I supposed to use my power to help peoples, because I'm a super, but instead of this, I'm stuck in this high school.
It's just an endless circle, isn't it? High school, stucking inside, not really knowing what to do, because your mind dosen't that smart.
Kind of rude, from me, not introducing myself. My name is Dora. Yeah, you may know that I'm a super, also, an illegal child. This has been stucked to my name. Whenever someone hears that I'm a Parr, they say that, I'm an illegal child. Like they would guess that I'm a super! Always getting scared of these little nicknames. But I don't care about it.
This day was differenter that the others. My friend, Sophie, and I sat outside the school. It was spring. I could feel it in the air. My eyes came across a boy. Never saw him. Maybe he is a new student. But he was pretty fine, to be honest. Okay, not developing any crushes. I don't want a failed love life, what my mother had, back in her teen life.
No, I don't know much about her teen side. But she made sure of knowing the deepest love stuff. How she fought for the love she still feels today, towards dad. It's bizarre sometimes, but I think it's kindda cute, to fight for someone.
"Earth to Dora." I saw Sophie hand waving, in front of my eyes.
I have blinked a few times, then turned to her. What is this strange feeling? I feel it shaking me. I just couldn't sit with clear head anymore. My life is already a big earthquake, I don't need another one, dragged down because of my feelings!
"Blacking out... Sorry." I said.
"So you have been cheking him out." She answered with a grin on her face, while pointing at him.
"Quit from it, it's useless to hope." I sighed.
Well, I'm just as hopeless, as my mother was. Crazy to think at it. When my mother was at this age, she had me. Already. How she had the life in front of her, and picked me, instead of it. I really hope one day I can understand how hard this choice is, and thank it to her.
I went to my locker, with a deep sigh. I just dared to look at the other way, when my eyey have met his eyes. He has beautiful brown eyes. It made me feel nerveous, a little. I tried to look away or something, but it didn't really worked that well.
"Look at our new couple... Maybe could be something?" Sophie whispered.
"Damn it, Sophie. Quit from it." I laughed.
It was quite boring. The school. I waited all along for the bell to ring. I just wanna go home and do nothing. Yeah, same thing at home.
We were outside of the school. Waiting for Sophie's mother to pick her up. I don't live that far from school, so I rather walk. Again, I dared to take a look around the school, when I saw him comming out. I smiled. Tried not to look creepy. Watching how he walked down the stairs, and started to walk on the way, we were standing. But he went towards, and turned around, when he saw me looking at me. I got a little smile from him.
"He looked at me..." I gasped.
"Don't you dare to black out again!" Sophie said, while she tried not to laugh.
Her mother came to pick her up. Not soon after that, I got home. Throwed my bag on my bad, quickly, and... I did nothing unordinary. Nobody were home. I was kindda surprised. Mom always supposed to be home. I don't get it.
I was scrolling on the social network accounts, when I saw a notification. I was really hoping in that, he found one of my profile, and added me on it.
And it was him! I was so happy! Quickly added him back. Got to know his name, finally...
Wilbur Robinson.
I kept scrolling down on his page. I kept this way crazy. I didn't even realize myself, being so connected to my phone. I didn't even realized my mother comming into the room, with a smile on her face.
"So you are crushing on somebody? Checking his profile out?" Mother asked.
"How?!" I freaked out.
"You are so busy to your phone. Remember what I always say to you..." Mother sighed.
"When I was at your age, I had the love of my life, and even you." I finnished her sentence.
"Come downstairs, you don't wanna miss dinner." She gotten up, and walked out of my room.
It was rough! I sighed, while turning on my back with a smile on my face. Why is this feeling so... strange? So a super can fall in love whenever they want to, it dosen't really has to be another super... Who knows, hey?
I went down for dinner. I thought mom will make fun of me, but she didn't. I felt a little better. I just kept my mind thinking of him. What made me blush, a lot. Realizing that my face is covered in red, I tried to brush my hair, to cover my face. Just way back, my mother did.
