2: Powers gone wrong pt.2

She smiled. "Sure"

We got off the rocks and started walking towards the hotel. After some miles I could see it through the palms.

"That over there is the hotel. Silly me, I forgot to show you that earlier. Should've tought you're not from here. Pretty white for the heat over here at the beach"

I laughed. "Yeah, but it's ok, no need to apologize"

We kept walking and I tightened the grip on our hands, making her stop for a second but shrugging it off. I loosened my grip only to tighten it again and wait for her reaction. A smug smile appeared on her face without looking at me and gave back the tightness.

"Ow" she said laughing and pulling her hand away

I looked at my hand and placed it on my cheek. "Yikes!" My hand was getting hot again. "I really need to control this" she giggled a bit and looked front.

"Oh we're here. Guess I should get going. Good night Pete"

"Good night"

I entered my room, which my parents forgot to lock, and slid on some pijamas.

"Time to sleep"

"I can't sleep"

I kept thinking about what had happened. I met Lexie, had a weird meeting with a 'we-dont-know-if-its-true-mermaid' and got some firebending powers. Like, this is weird man. Expet for Lexie, she seems like a sweet girl, she helped me and gave me a small tour of the town. God I can't wait for tomorrow... I yawned and fell asleep...

"Mother of God! Lexie! What are you doing up there!?"

"Wha- Oh my God mom???? Why are you upside down???"

I looked around and all my room was backwards.

"Lexie... You're on the roof..."

I looked at myself and I was kind of levitating.

"Oh my God make this stop, make this stop, make this st- AAAAAAA! Oof" I fell on my bed and looked at myself. "What just happened...?"

"I don't know dear but..."

"Oh oh... need to run" I ran to the bathroom and threw up. I was highly affected by heights. Not only scared of, but got easily sick because of it.

"Hay mija" my mom said. "You're going to be... fine" she hesitated.

"Thanks mom..." I said, not sure if it was on a sarcastic tone or in a sick one. Whichever worked best.

We got breakfast and a knock was heard. "Hey it's me Peter"

I oppened the door. "Hey Pete" i said dizzy.

"Are you ok?"

"No... let's talk about it outside"

We went to the same rock as yesterday and I explained to Pete what happened. "-And so I fell on the bed and went to throw up because I'm highly affected by heights"

"Weird, but it's just like my fire thing. Like, we're both scared of them and at some point, we got affected by it"

"Hmmm... you may be right"

"And, today I woke up a sweating mess... this 'fire powers' are pretty out of control"

"Tell me abo- oh oh oh oh!" Suddenly I started to lift from the rock. "Pete! Oh my god, oh my god!"

"Lexie!"

He grabbed my hand but the rest of my body kept going up. "Pete, I'm slipping"

"Hold on!"

My hand started to slip until we broke apart, I close my eyes tightly and waited for the worst.

"Pfffff" Pete started laughing loudly.

"What?" I oppened one eye, only to see that I stopped going up. I only elevated to a certain height, but when I looked down, Pete was far, far away from me, which made me concious about the height.

"Make it stop, make it stop, make it stop......." Nothing. I closed my eyes again trying to hold back the feeling of nausea.

Drop.

"PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETE!!!!"

I fell down on something but it surley wasn't sand. I looked and saw Peter below me.

"Are you ok?" He asked.

I fell on top of Peter as he tryed to catch me.

"Yeah..." I moved my hips away from him so that he could sit.

"Can you stand up?"

I tried to stand but failed thanks to my dizziness.

"Come here"

I took his hands and he carried me piggy back to my room were I sat on my bed.

"I feel terrible... I hate heights..."

He chuckled. "I'll bring you something to eat, it will help you gain focus"

"Thanks" I said laying down on my bed.

When I came back to Lexie's room she was sound asleep. Adorable.

I shook her a couple of times trying to wake her up.

"Lexieeee..." I whispered, no answer.

I got closer to her ear. "Hey Lexie, wake up" whispering again.

Her eyes flickered open. "Hey..." she rubbed her eyes.

"How are you feeling?"

"Better"

"That's great" I handed her the plate with soop I made for her but my hand got hot and boiled the soop.

She let out a small scream when some of it spilled on her leg.

"I-i'm sorry!"

"I-it's ok"

I placed the soop on the table again and sat besides her letting a long sigh. "It's fine, really. I mean, not even one of us likes their powers, they kinda suck you know. You can control the thing you're most afraid of, and I can float up to god knows where... it's kind of terrifing..."

"Yeah it is..." i said looking at the ceiling

She layed down. "Besides, it's a lot to take in...this... superpowers thing... I just need some rest..."

"Me too" i said, flopping into the bed besides her. "Me too..."

Ana: and done! This is just an experiment so idk if i'll keep this up
