She stood before me - an expectant look meeting my eyes. Waiting.

I could tell she knew. It was a secret that wasnt much of a secret when someone knew your heart.

“Uh…” how was i going to say this? “Ms. Ryan?”

“You can stop Tony”

Yeah. She knew.

“How long have you been The Exploder? The whole time we have been dating?”

I pulled my mask down and met her eyes. She was the smartest woman i had ever met. And ive saved super scientists.

“Yeah. Since i was 15. I was exposed to a toxic material and it gave me super jumping powers.”

She smiled at me. Grabbing my wrist she pulled me toward her. What now, i thought. Kiss, sure. But how do i protect her from all the assassins?
