"So what exactly happened when and after you saved me?" Stephanie stood in front of Sportacus, waiting for answers. She was eager to know.
Staring at the floor, Sportacus responded, "Robbie showed up with gun gun, threatening me to leave or he would kill you. I pleaded to bring you home first, and he let me. When we were alone in the room, while you were on the bed, I took the chance to fight with Robbie. I taped him up with some duct tape you had on your desk, and now he's been thrown in jail for kidnapping and attempted murder. He thought I was going to let him go. Anough about that, though. You feeling well?"
"Uhh," Steph nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine, but I feel so guilty.."
"Why?" Trixie asked, not realizing Steph was speaking to Sportacus.
Shaking her head, Stephanie shrugged the subject off, "Nothing, nevermind."
The gang decided it was too nice out to stay in, so Ziggy created the idea to go rake some leaves outside. The park needed to be raked before playing anymore basketball or soccer. Stephanie was going to stay behind, but decided she needed some fresh air after being in water for so long.
Reaching the park, Sportacus called for rakes and his airship dropped one for each person. Ziggy, Pixel, Trixie, Stephanie, Stingy, and Sportacus began to rake in different directions. Leave were everywhere, for they had fallen overnight. Autumn was near an end, but the sun kept shining and warming everyone. Stephanie raked near a big oak tree. She found nature amazing, but wished winter wouldn't come. Winter meant chilly nights alone, drinking hot cocoa and wishing for someone to snuggle up with.
"Stephanie," Sportacus approached her, "don't move." He took a leave off of her head and stated, "These things will cover you if you aren't careful."
With that said, Stephanie's mind brought up a cute idea. She picked up a pile of leaves when Sportacus' back was turned and threw the leaves on him. Turning around laughing, Sportacus shook the foliage off.
"Oh yeah?" Sportacus challenged while picking up a handful of leaves.
Stephanie ran behind the tree, giggling and yelling, "No! No, you can't get me."
Trixie, Pixel, Stingy, and Ziggy left the two flirtacious people alone to their playful fighting as they, themselves, continued raking. Sportacus rounded the tree and threw the leaves on top of Stephanie's head. She laughed as she ran to a rather large leave pile.
"Sportacus," She teased, "I'll throw this whole pile on you if you don't stay back!"
Chuckling, Sportacus added, "And then you'll shake the tree to make sure all the leaves fall on me, right?"
"I don't have your strength, Sporty-Sport."
Walking over to Stephanie, Sportacus playfully tried to push her into the leave pile. She pushed on his chest, forcing him back a few inches. Not giving up, Sportacus gently moved closer to Stephanie, causing her to plop into the large pile of leaves.
Stephanie grinned gleefully, "Thanks for making me part of nature, Sportacus."
"Anytime," He retorted.
Holding out her hand, Stephanie wanted Sportacus to help her out of the leave pile. Taking his favorite girl's hand, Sportacus was surprised to feel Stephanie pulling him down into the pile with her. Landing next to Steph, he stared at her shaking body. She had started shaking from laughing so hard!
After she finally stopped laughing, Stephanie gazed at the sky. Sportacus smiled at the sound of his friends having fun raking. Staring lovingly at Stephanie's beautiful face, he wanted to fly. His heart raced with emotions he knew existed, but never believed to until he felt them. Inching closer to his love, Sportacus wanted to take the chance.
Pixel knew exactly what was going to happen, or what was supposed to happen any minute, so he advised the gang to stay out of the Superhero's way.
"Stephanie.." Sportacus whispered in Steph's ear, making her shudder in expectation.
Pulling himself onto Stephanie, Sportacus slightly smiled at the sight of her shocked face. Somewhere in Stephanie's mind, she knew this was going to happen. Softly, Sport placed his tender lips onto Stephanie's. A long awaited task finally accomplished.
Blood rushed to Stephanie's face, making her blush like crazy. She had been kissed before, but not by the one true man she had loved from the beginning. Placing her hand on the back of Sportacus' shoulder, she deepened the kiss. Her hero was certainly pleasing, for everything he did with his lips on hers made butterflies grow indefinately.
Leaves floated swiftly through the air, falling like shooting stars onto Sportacus and Stephanie. This was their moment of Heaven..
"Oooooooooh!" Stingy peered his head around the oak tree and taunted the lovers, "You guys are smootchin'!"
Breaking the lip massage, Stephanie pushed Sportacus off of her. She didn't realize everyone was still in the park, and for some reason it scared her.
"Wait, Stephanie, Where are you going?" Sportacus queried Stephanie as she started to saunter away.
Only one words escaped her mouth before she began to cry, "Away."
"Sorry, Sportacus," Stingy appologized, lowering his head.
Trixie stood next to Stingy and shouted at him, "You should've kept your mouth quiet!"
Sadly, Sportacus said, "Don't worry.. I'll talk to her. But Stingy, next time, behave yourself please."

The only reason Stehpanie had once again ran away was fear. She feared loving Sportacus, even after everything that happened to them. She didn't want them to end up fighting or backstabbing one another. Fact was, she would never hurt her Sportacus. She loved him..Truly, Madly, Deeply loved him. The only escape was back to her Uncle's house. Sitting upon a tree branch, high above the ground behind her home, Stephanie told herself to hide out for awhile and figure things out. A talk was in order for Sportacus, she knew he deserved a chance, but her fear still dwelled in the remains of her unbroken soul.
If only she could stop giving her hero drama to deal with.. It wasn't her fault, but her feelings. Stephanie's heart was ready to take a chance and confess its love to Sportacus, but it wanted reassurance that nothing bad would ever happen again. Stephanie wanted safety as much as love. She knew Sportacus could provide both love and safety, but her question was whether or not he'd be able to handle both. All her life, Stephanie had never known Sportacus to love anyone...Until recently. What if he couldn't handle a relationship?
What if she couldn't?
