Good part. Ellie needs to stop assuming how Jay is feeling. Looking forward to that talk. Keep it coming!

Pretty Woman??? That was cute. smile

I was surprised when Jack Olsen called, although in retrospect that was a reasonable development and I feel like I should have seen that coming.

As for Jay's and Ellie's developing relationship, communication seems to continue to be problematic. Jay's problems with his dad and his past and Ellie trying to figure out how to do the super-with-normal thing.

Very enjoyable.

Great part, Beth! clap

“No,” I shook my head emphatically. “Absolutely not.”

“Why not? It says here it’s an accurate retelling of the events of the Prometheus launch.”

“Clearly you’ve never been to school in Metropolis,” I said, rolling my eyes. “We’ve watched it every year on the anniversary of the launch. And do you know how annoying it is to go home and be told exactly where the movie deviated from what actually happened?”
Flashback. Flashback! And would it have been before or after the revelation?

Their hesitant cuddling was so sweet.

And it’s not like Ellie had a problem with using her powers in front of me. She hated doing mundane tasks like dishes or cleaning or making coffee or anything else at a normal speed, and was constantly rushing through them. I teased her a lot about that too, I realized. Was she bothered by that after all?

Thinking about it even more, I realized that although she had no problem with using her speed, there were other abilities she had that I rarely, if ever, saw. When was the last time I had seen her use her strength? Or fly? We had flown to Smallville for Christmas, but that was almost two months ago now. Whenever we were together, we usually walked to get around. Ellie had no use for a car, and I had yet to get one, so walking was basically our only option besides a cab. I had never really questioned that behavior. I liked to walk, so it wasn’t a problem for me, but did Ellie maybe think that I wouldn’t like to fly with her?
Hm... Hm... This is good stuff, Beth. And he realizes that they have to talk clap

I shut the phone, and let myself into my building. I took the stairs two at a time to get to my third floor apartment. The key turned easily in the lock, and I swung my door open. Ellie was already there, sitting on my sofa with her hands folded in her lap. She must have heard me coming, as she was looking unwaveringly at me as soon as I had opened the door.

“Hey,” I said.

“Hey,” she replied quietly.

It was time for our talk.
*runs around screaming at the cliffhanger sad

Oh, and I don't remember blush but does Jack Olsen know? He did set up the NIA connection for the Superheros, but as for the rest... Fidelity has just been so long ago frown

Sigh... so true. Perhaps that will be covered in their talk. wink

Actually, I was surprised too when Jay's phone rang. wink It was one of those things that just happened as I wrote it.

Don't feel bad, Michael, I never told you. laugh We'll find out more about that later.

Thanks everyone once again for the comments. I'll probably keep the posting schedule at Fri morning (my time wink ) for now and at least until I can get some internet set up.

Just dropping in to say I'm really enjoying this series! I'm especially enjoying how Jay is developing--it's uplifting to watch him put a life together and figure out who he is.

Great work! thumbsup
