Challenge #57 - Arresting Behavior
Title: Superheroes
Author: Foreverbm
Timeline: Brian and Michael's childhood.
Condom(s): Two to Michael
They ran down the street, the shop owner’s loud voice following them, threatening to call the cops on little shits of kids that stole his fruit.
They giggled as they reached Michael’s backyard and dived into the cubby house, wiping away the juice from the oranges that was running down their chins with the back of their sleeves.
They settled on the old mattresses; Michael flicking through the latest issue of Captain Astro.
“Do you think there are real life super-heroes Brian?”
“They’re make believe Mikey!”
He saw the hurt in his best friend’s eyes and instantly regretted his words.
“I don’t think so!” Michael sighed, feeling so much younger than his friend.
He wished he was more like him, full of confidence, ready to fight for what he believed in.
“I’ll be your super-hero if you want Mikey!”
Brian jumped up; donning the batman cape Debbie had given Michael for his last birthday.
Michael laughed putting on the matching mask.
“I think these super-heroes need some more fruit!” Brian declared, running out the door, Michael at his heels.
This time they weren’t so lucky. They had some explaining to do when the cops bought them home an hour later.
