My Weakness

After awhile of fighting the villain's leader and two other villains they eventually ran away going into hiding.

Mysterion recovered not long before. I was so worried about him... It's insane how he heals himself... It's never explained how but it's true, even if he sees to have died.. He always comes back.

Fastpass ended up taking me to my house so no one could see where I lived.

I unlocked my door walking inside closing it from behind. I sighed taking my hair out of my bun fluffing up my curly hair. I took off my shirt wearing a small tank top underneath. I took off my pants putting on short athletic shorts. I see dried up blood still on my body.. I went to the kitchen washing my arms and face under the sink.

Shortly after I hear a knock at my door.

I tensed up breathing hard.

I walk up to the door with full caution.

I slowly open the door and peek.

I see someone I've never met before.

"Can I help you?"

"I... Came to say... Thank you."

I tensed recognizing the voice.

"Human kite?"

"Can I come in before anyone sees me?"

"Uh y-yeah..."

When he walked in I locked the door.

"W-what are you doing here?"

I wanted to make sure you got home safely.

"Human kite you...."

"You can call me Kyle now...." he said cutting me off.

I tensed up feeling embarrassed..

"I'm sorry, I forgot. Uhh Kyle. Why are you really here?"

He walking up to me.

"I wanted to thank you...for saving my life like three times now.."

I looked up at him feeling my face heat up slightly.

"We are a team. If I have to save your life again I will..."

He looked deeper in my eyes.

"I'd do the same for you."

I felt my mouth slightly gap getting mesmerized by his emerald green eyes.

"Jess... I'm sorry I didn't... Help you with Craig. I tried but... That guy saw me and prevented me from getting to you.. He saw I was getting more and more angry. I thought you and Craig were dying I was trying so hard to defeat him I got so....blinded."

"Hey... I had just the right amount of luck. Me and him are fine."

I see him looked down ashamed.

"I just... Cant believe... I promised you I'd protect you.. But turns out... It's the other way around. I was so blinded by rage I didn't realize the whole place was coming down. I would have died if you weren't there."

"Kyle.. That's why I'm here..to help all of you."

I hear him lightly chuckle.

"Man, how did we get so lucky?"

I smiled sweetly at him.

"You saved my life."

I slowly grabbed both his hands.

He tensed looking down at my hands then back in my eyes.

I slowly look up at him feeling my stomach butterfly. I stood on my tip toes slowly pressing my lips on his so softly.

I felt him tense badly putting taking his hands out of mine putting them on my arms pushing me away.

I look up at him feeling my face heat up feeling embarrassed.

"Jess.. I....I'm sorry I... Can't."

I look away ashamed.

"Oh my god... No, I'm sorry Kyle I...kinda...like you. I can't help it, your the one who gave me hope all these months. When others gave up hope I thought of you giving me the faith I needed. You saved me even though you hurt yourself so badly just to save my life I... Risked my life to make sure you were okay even though I was in critical condition. I.."

I tensed when he put his finger on my lips. My eyes widen looking up at him.

"Jess.. I can't be seen with you.. because... Your my weakness."

I tensed up taken back a bit.

"W-what?"

"I found out a long time ago.. I get reckless when I'm with you or your in danger..if I get closer to you I'm....afraid.. I'll lose you for sure.

I felt tears come as I felt a knot form in my throat and stomach.

"Kyle..." I breathed out.

He slowly turned around walked away.

"I'm sorry... You don't deserve this." He said not looking at me.

I walked up to him hugging him from behind.

"No matter where, no matter when and no matter how bad it is.. I'll always be there for you Kyle.. You are my hero and always will be."

I hear him choke up.

"Jess I... Have to go. I'm sorry."

I felt more tears come.

"Kyle please, don't go."

I felt him walk out of my grasp.

He went to the door. When he did he looked back at me. I could see his eyes blood shot red holding back tears. I felt tears fall off my face with my eyebrow raise up and mouth gap open.

He grit his teeth looking at me in pain and with that he left without saying anything else.

I breathed out hard.

'I can't believe he rejected me...'
