Melissa had already halfway stood up when he said yes. Then she dropped back down in surprise. An Epic just said yes to her. When every single other normal boy had said no. Her, a mousy, boyish, small girl. "B-because..." [I]Because that Freak from ENTV promised me money?[/i] "I saw you fighting last night. On the television."

Her hands tightened on her book. The boy in front of her was Vice, the hero with a burning arm. He fought monsters. Killed monsters. "I told my friends I knew you, because you come in here when I work." She readjusted her glasses. "They dared me to bring you to prom if I knew you so well." [I]And one of then must have called ENTV, because Gecko found me outside and promised me money if I could get them a scoop. [/i]"S-So I had to ask you."
