*Sue's POV*

"I bet there's gonna be a lot of hot girls there," my brother, Johnny, said as he trailed behind me and into the Marvel High main office. Marvel High was a boarding school for heroes. Well, not just heroes. There was some people here without powers, but it's where all the young heroes went to learn and such.

"Johnny," I groaned.

"And they'll be all over Torch here when he shows them his awesome power," Johnny continued, ignoring me completely, as always.

"No they won't because you're not aloud to use your powers in school unless authorized. You could get suspended, you know," I told him.

"Sue, when have I ever followed rules?"

I rolled my eyes and shook my head and kept walking. Johnny continued to ramble on and on about getting hot girls and using his powers and hanging with all the cool kids and blah blah blah. I learned to tune him out.

Unfortunately, I was so out of it that I ran into someone.

"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry," I said quickly and looked up at the stranger. He was a fairly tall man with black hair. He gave me an awkward smile. "H-Hi."

"Hi," he said. "It's okay, I wasn't really paying attention where I was going either," he said. We just looked at each other for another moment before the stranger snapped out of his trance. "My name is Reed, by the way. Reed Richards. My superhero name is Mr. Fantastic and I can stretch any part of my body like a rubber band."

"Sue Storm. I'm known as the Invisible Woman because I can turn invisible," I said. "This is my brother, Johnny, known as the Human Torch because he can light himself on fire."

"I can show you if you want," Johnny said, his eyes on one of Reed's friends. A pretty girl about my height with short, curly black hair.

"No thanks," she said, rolling her eyes. "My names Margaret, but everyone calls me Maggie. I'm friends with Reed. My hero name is Elementalist because I can control elements, such as fire."

"Nice to meet you, Maggie," I said and shook her hand. I noticed Reed's other friend. A bigger boy who was slightly balding.

"My names Ben, known as The Thing when I'm not inside this little force field they have over the school," he said and shook my hand.

Oh yeah! I forgot to explain that. The school has an invisible force field around it that contains some powers. For example, one person that I know, his names Bruce Banner. When he's angry, he turns into this big green thing called The Hulk. Inside Marvel High, he can't do that.

"Nice to meet you three," I said. "I hope I get to see you more often."

"Me too," Reed said. "I mean see you, not me. Obviously, I sort of see myself every day-"

"Reed," Maggie chuckled. "You're babbling."

Reed nodded and gave me another awkward smile before saying goodbye and the three friends left. Johnny let out a laugh.

"What a nerd," he said, but I ignored him. I wanted to see Reed Richards more often.

*Reed's POV*

"What a jerk," Maggie muttered as we walked away from the Storms.

"I don't know. I kind of liked her," Ben said.

"Not Susan! Johnny. I've heard all about him. He's the player type. He never uses his powers for anything but himself. Reed, are you okay?"

I had barley been listening. I was lost in the thought of Susan Storm. She was beautiful. The most beautiful girl I have ever seen. I couldn't get her out of my mind.
