It was a superhero film. I never liked super heroes, but Matt did. At the end when they dropped hints for a sequel before the screen went black, I stood on wobbly, cold legs.

I both loved and despised Jess.He was better looking, more popular with girls, and probably smarter than me too.Being a preteen was hard for everyone in at least some aspects. But, he took everything away from me in an instant.Peering over my locker, I felt like a peeping tom, etching the sight of my best friend kissing the one I loved most into permanent memory.No one was more beautiful than Kelly. Although I had never spoken to her, I knew that I loved her.Instead of confron...
