Being the gentleman that he was, Megamind thought it was only appropriate to pick up Roxanne and walk her to school. He rang the doorbell and waited patiently. He lit up when he saw her, and didn't waste any time throwing his arms around her and giving her a kiss. She smiled against his lips, and then giggled when they parted.

"Good morning, beautiful," he said happily.

"Good morning," she chuckled, feeling a little giddy about his presence. She interlocked her peach fingers with his blue ones and walked off her porch and in the direction of the school.

"So how did your parents take the news?" Megamind asked after a few minutes. Roxanne didn't have any intentions of keeping her relationship with him a secret from anyone, including her mom and dad.

"My dad took it better than my mom," she told him. "She was worried that you would try to take advantage of me or something. I don't know where she got that from."

The alien was shocked. Did she really think he would…?

"Roxanne, I would never-"

"Oh, I know!" she quickly cut him off. "I didn't believe her or anything. I spent like half an hour trying to convince her that you aren't like that."

"And did she believe you?"

Roxanne shrugged. "I don't know. Honestly, she might not ever be okay with us being together."

Megamind's stomach flipped.

"But remember," she continued, stopping in the middle of the sidewalk and facing him. "it doesn't matter what other people think." She gave him a peck on the lips.

He smiled adoringly and kissed her again, slower and deeper this time. It probably would have lasted longer, but the sound of teenage girls whooping and cheering forced the couple to break it off.

"Hey, Roxanne!" Tammy called from the driver's seat of a now parked car.

With her body still close to Megamind's, Roxanne waved at her friend shyly, her face bright red with embarrassment. She noticed that Holly and Jen were giggling in the backseat and blushed even more.

Megamind smiled at how cute that was.

"Aww, they're so adorable!" Holly squealed.

"Do you two need a ride?" Tammy offered.

The unusual couple exchanged glances, then shook their heads in unison.

"No thanks," Roxanne said politely, taking Megamind's hand. "We'll walk."

"Okay then. See you at school!"

"You didn't want a ride?" her boyfriend asked when girls drove off.

"Nope," she said. "I want to walk with you."

She smiled at him and they continued walking.

Tammy never failed to spread new quickly. Half of the students already knew that Megamind and Roxanne were dating by the time they walked through the door. Still hand-in-hand, the two of them strolled through the hall like they didn't give a damn what the others had to say, because they didn't! They found entertainment in the gaping mouths and wide eyes, sometimes waving at people who looked really confused. They could hear what their peers were saying, wondering what she saw in him, and how he got her to like him. Roxanne had all the answers, and what they said about her and Megamind didn't matter as long as she could be with him.
