?Trigga, do you not have class today?? Morgan asked. It was funny that she never used my real name, and there was a time I thought she didn?t even know it. What I really needed to concentrate on now was her question, not how she asked it. I opened my eyes to see the world clearer than I had ever seen it before. As I sat up I looked around as if I had just awoken from a deep sleep.
?Yeah, what time is it?? I said as I peered down at my watch. It was 11:00am
?It?s eleven.? Morgan answered looking at her phone. I had been under the sun for nearly two hours?
?Shit? I have class. You girls leaving?? I asked as I didn?t think them staying out here very healthy. ?Wait, you don?t have Monday classes, right??
?Nah. We?re going to go grab some lunch though.? Laura answered me this time. The last semester of senior year was hard, but it was kind of laid back. I remember preparing for this moment; the semester where I?d only have one hard class and few easy ones for credits. My next class was ballroom dancing. I know it sounded lame, but what guy would pass up dancing with girls. It was the easiest class of my life, and it helped me stretch out a bit. After that I?d have my Genetics class, and then I?d have work. As much as I feared that class, I knew it was a requirement for my major: Biology.
?Alright then,? I said as I got up with a stretch. The strange thing about standing up was that I felt like I was barely weighted down. It was as if I could feel the whole world beneath me. It was as if I was on some drug, yet I felt so almighty. Everything around me seemed like it was going at slower pace than my mind captured it? at least until I realized I needed to say goodbye. ?I?ll see you girl later. I gotta dance.? Once I said that, Laura?s eyes lit up.
?And you have to dance with me tomorrow.? She stated, as I didn?t just have one, but two dance classes. I enjoyed Latin dance class, but sometimes it was more of a workout than I wanted.
?Of course. I gotta dance with other girls though. People are starting to think we have a thing together.?
?They can think what they want baby? Laura joked as I walked way and laughed. I waved the trio goodbye before heading to my room as quickly as possible. It was kind of awkward to walk across campus without a shirt, but I dealt with it. Once I arrived there, there was a lot I had to do. The first thing I did was grab my dancing shoes and a stick of gum. I needed fresh breath if I was going to be face to face with some girl I barely even knew. I almost forgot to grab my backpack, and went toward my bed to go get it. It looked like Naje had gone through it. It was opened and some of my books were scattered around it.
?I?m gonna get him back, watch.? I said to myself as I quickly stuffed my books into the bag. I stuck the stick of gum into my mouth and chewed it rapidly. I looked at my watch to see that it was 11:05. I still had plenty of time. This power was starting to be amazing, if only I had my phone and debit card. I hoped to get them in the mail tomorrow if anything. It would be good to buy what I would need to help me practice my powers. Since I had the time to, I started to clean up the room. I had even organized our games DVDs, only to come across what I knew I?d find while doing it. I felt so fucking smart, and things would only get better. Looking down at my find, I smirked. It was Smallville Season 1. If I had the similar powers to Clark Kent, then watching his experiences might help me out a bit. I placed the DVD case onto my bed before doing more cleaning and in only ten minutes the room was cleaned. It sucked that I?d have to go to classes and then work before getting to watch some episodes, but I could wait.
It was 11:15 now, and I was contemplating going into class late. The temptation was strong, but I just sighed and changed into cargo shorts, and a black shirt. It would help soak up some rays. After looking in the mirror, I headed out. My dance class was a good distance away from my dorm, but I had the time to walk. I wondered what the others were up to, but then just shrugged it off. I just hoped they weren?t doing something that was? Suddenly I froze up as I felt as if I had done something horribly wrong. What was it though? What did I do? The feeling seemed to go away as mysteriously as it showed up; it kind of felt like yesterday, when I was talking to Wayman. I guessed it was a bad side effect to the powers and continued walking. I?d have to mention that to Floyd. Other than that weird moment and Nicole, today was turning out to be great.
