Chapter 3 Experimentation
The next several weeks passed by uneventfully: I continued to experiment with my power (when nobody was looking, of course), and Alex remained as suspicious as ever. Especially when my literary preferences changed dramatically; instead of my usual science magazines, historical fiction, and stuff like that, I started reading comic books, trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do with this, I guess. They didn't help much, but they were fun to read.
I stumbled across one early on that had a character with telekinesis, just like me, and she could use her telekinesis to levitate herself off the ground, almost like flying. I didn't think about it much at the time, but I guess I never fully dismissed the idea.
So, one day I decided to try it. I went out to the back of the house, made sure that nobody was looking (of course), closed my eyes, and concentrated hard on pulling myself upwards….
That didn't work, so I tried concentrating on pushing the ground away from me….
And it worked; I opened my eyes and saw that I was just about level with the roof of our two-story house, so I lowered myself onto the roof, instead of going all the way back down.
I was so excited, I almost yelled for joy. I was finally getting somewhere, finally starting to understand this. I felt like I was flying again.
And that's when I saw Alex watching me from the treehouse in the backyard, a look of shock on her face.

A/N: Sorry the chapter's so short, guys. There just wasn't much I could do with it. Don't worry, they will get more interesting. I still want reviews, though.
