"I'M BORED!!" I yelled from my sitting position in the living room. The large plasma TV was playing a New York Giants football match and I was too scared to change the channel, Ben might seriously not like that.

Ben Grimm literally terrified the living day lights out of me, his skin was basically bits and pieces of rock. If he so much as patted you too hard on the head you could bleed, and I felt horrible for feeling like this cause I knew he hated being viewed as a monster.

But what could I do?

Pretend he was what he wasn't?? I just pray I get used to the sight of him in the morning.....
"Go and train then!" Susan yelled back from only God-knows-where.

"If I train one more time I think I'll choke someone in their sleep" I mumbled. Then on an afterthought added, "-probably Johnny"

Jonathan Lowell Spencer Storm a.k.a Johnny Storm (Ya I know his full name) was practically the most arrogant, egotistical, self-centered guy to ever plague the earth. But that still didn't stop him from being so irresistibly HOT, I mean their should be a law against that!! Anytime he gets too close I can practically feel myself blushing and I couldn't blame it on my powers anymore because I know he knows I have a thing for him. And that was all it was, a thing, it'll pass...surely....

Sue and Reed on the other hand.....well, their were as normal as any married couple was supposed to be. Sue is awesome but can be soooooooo bossy, and Reed...just doesn't act like he knows I'm around. Except for when I have to go train he ignores me 97% of the time. I don't mind, but it does get lonely in here, with no one to talk to but a disembodied voice...Curby I think his name was.

"Hey! What's the name of Reeds computer voice thing again?" I yelled from my seat.
"Herbey? I think it was" Ben's voice rumbled from down the corridor, as he made his way into the living room with a year's supply of food. I tried as much as possible not to let any physical emotion show.

"No, I thinks it Queby" Sue said as she strolled into the room and sat next to Ben. "With a Q" she added.

"I think it starts with a 'C' sound, you know cur-" I pronounced.

"Your all wrong" The computerized voice chimned, scaring me witless. " My name is H.E.R.B.I.E. although Master Grimm got it right his spelling was off by two letters"

"oooooooh" all three of us cooed.
"Why are all you guys sounding like birds?" Johnny voice came from the elevator at the other end of the room. He had a redhead clinging to the shoulders of his leather jacket, and this one had more makeup on then the last on who happen to be Johnny's longest relationship. Or, Lady Gaga, as we called her which was an insult to Miss Gaga.

"If anyone needs me I'll be in my room. Cmon Fifi" he said to the girl who was grinning like a fool. I hate her.

They walked off blissfully, and I was almost tempted to blast both of them with my power if not for the fact that I knew Johnny could fully neutralize it.

I felt a slight gentle tap on my right arm and refrained from jumping put of my skin when I turned and saw Ben's face right in front of me grinning. "Green isn't a good colour on you sweetheart"

I smirked at that remark, "He wished"

"Ben leave her alone, she's too young for does feeling" Susan said with a book on her lap, I'm sure it must've been Twilight: New Moon, that was her favorite book for she loved the part where Bella was heart broken......Don't ask.

"Cmon she's almost 18, Suzy" Ben said

"The key word being almost"

"I'm sitting right h-..." I said causally, and as usual no one was listening.

 I got up and walked to my room to shut myself off from the rest of the world, when I saw Johnny (whose room just so 'happened' to be directly opposite mine) giggling in the corner with Fifi, who was pressed to the wall end. She was looking at the ground while saying something, then all of a sudden he looked up, stared straight at me....and winked.

 OH that cheeky devil! I silently fumed. Turning directions I marched back to the living room, to the opposite elevator, and went straight up to have a little one on one with Reed, again.

As the door opened I heard Herbie's voice finish telling Reed about my coming up and his berely audible grunt of reply.

"Hey Reed?"

No reply....

"Reeeeeeed" I dragged out the syllable, I walked over to the table he was hunched over and waved my hand in front of him. "Hello? Earth to Reed Richards, Voctor Von Doom is attacking!"

"HUN!? What did you say!?" He instantly raised his head from what he was doing and stretched his neck 3 feet towards me, and let me be the first to tell you how cool and disgusting that is...

a) COOL-Because he can do that,

and b) DISGUSTING-...because he can do that.

"Ya! Didn't you hear all the screams of agony and Doom's bloodthirsty cry of power?" I decided on a plan to get me out of the building and I just prayed Herbie would keep his mouth shut.

"Wh-..wa" he tried to talked but I didn't let him get a word out.

"No no no no! Do not worry yourself" I lead him to a microscope looking thing on another table 5 feet away. Okay, his butt and legs were sitted on the chair but his torso, chest and head stretched to follow my movement. I just hope I don't break him. "I will take care of everything! I'll just use alittle bit of my powers on Doom and he'll be gone slickdy-split!

Good God! I cannot beleive I just used that word! I forced a fake smile on my face as Reed looked me staright in the eye. I looked away.

"Nice try" he just said, and looked throught the microscope.

"Cmon Reed! I just want to-" I looked down at him "aaaaand your not listening to me anymore"

No reply...

"Gosh! How does Susan stand you?" I wispered harshly.

"Very poorly," she replied. "The ironic part is that I still do" she walked over to the table where Reeds head is over and kissed him.

"I always wondered why you stayed" he replied shyly.

"I wonder the same thing"

"Hahahahahaha!!!!" I and Ben erupted in howls of laughter.

Reed just smirked and began twisting knobs on the microscope.

"So......" after I'd laughed my fill I began walking towards the elevator. Meybe if they didn't see me leaving....

"Hold it right there" Susan voice ordered. Damn!

"What!" I actually yelled in anger. Susan gave me a look of pure shock, half from my outburst and half at the fact that I could even get angry.

"Herbie, tell Johnny to get up here" she said quietly.

"Yes Mrs Richard" Herbie said obediently, he used to call her Miss Storm then Miss Susan and now she was trying her best to make him just her Susan.

"If you hadn't noticed, his gonna be kinda busy" I reasoned.

"Not to busy to beat you up I hope" she replied ever so calmly.

Wow...I did not see that coming, I'll be honest with you. I smiled despite myself at what might possibly be going through her head.

"And what, might I ask, do you mean by that?" I had a wide grin on my face as I asked.

"I mean what I meant when I said what I said." Is that sentence even correct?

"Uuuuuhm....okay?" I stood where I was awkwardly, looking from Susan who would stop staring at me to Reed who wouldn't even look at me. Then finally Ben who gave me a sympathetic look which made me really uneasy.

"What do you want?" an irritable Johnny's voice sounded through the whole lab.

"Johnny? Remember when we made you first try your powers? What did we do?"

"You guys put me in an ultra-heat poof chamber-like thing and made me go crazy with my powers" He answered, then said "Is that what you called me to-"

"How hot did you get?" Susan continued to talk, never taking a gaze off me.

Johnny noticed that his sister wasn't in the mood so he kept shut and answered the question. "Anything above 209 degrees"

"Herbie can you project the image of that day for her to see pls?"

"Sure thing Mrs. Reed" The images that came up took my breath away. It was like I was standing there that very day, Johnny was in a chamber right to my left, then all of the sudden the angle changed and I was standing right next to Holographic Johnny. That when my breathing changed, standing so close to Johnny, any form of him, made my heart go into overdrive. Focus! I screamed at myself. I first saw Johnny's hand catch on fire, then his whole right arm, then the body just lit up. Then my whole focus shifted to the sexy-ass grin he had on, gosh!, his guy is just damn to sexy.

Next thing I knew something big, hard, and painful hit me square in the face. I flew back and land hard on the floor. "What the-!?"

"Next thing another bolt hit me on my right arm, damn that hurt!

"What the HELL IS GOING ON!" I used my powers to create a blockade, and more invisible objects kept hitting it. My brain worked quickly then I realized that the holographic image of Johnny was a distraction- and a pretty good one, point to Susan.

Maybe this was their way of testing if I was worthy to leave the building, and if I could prove myself here...well, who knows?

I looked at the Fantastic Four taking there battle stance, Grimm hit his hand on the floor to make his strength know, Sue slowly turned invisible. Reed just sat by his table but looked ready at a moments notice and Johnny lend back against a table with a cocky grin. They'd obviously gone over forms of attack while I was busy drooling. Johnny catch my eyes, smirked and grinned. As if saying ' I knew you liked me, but I didn't know I was sexy enough to make you gawked" I shot him back a look that replied "In your dreams, get over your self!"

Now for those of you who have wondered what my powers actually are....let me be the first to say. It. Is. AWSOME!

Can you guess?
