I had been training for almost five months now in Josh's private lab. Just me, Kaylee and Josh. I hate to admit it but i was actually having a load of fun. I could walk around without gloves and easily summon a nuclear blast when i wanted too. I had also come to know Josh quite well and maybe, sort of, developed a small crush on him. Small. Anyway, i was super excited when he spoke to me one after noon.

I had just finished a training session. It was kind of like a version of red light green light. Kaylee would say "Green" and i would blast an object, then when she said "Red" i would stop. I know, it seems stupid but it was good for me to have sharper reflexes. Anyway, I finished and was feeling pretty exhausted. I entered the main room where Josh watched me train. 

"Nice work, Bomb." He said and we fist bumped. 

"Thanks Josh." I said. "I've been really working on my control."

"And you've improved a lot." Josh noted, then he sort of smiled at me. 

"You do anything tonight?" He asked.

"No, just going to home with Kaylee to drown in popcorn and binge watch Marvel, the usual." I answered.

"Nice." Josh said back. "Since you've been working so hard, i was wondering if you wanted to go to dinner with me. At Food Gear, tonight. Just for fun." And my heart skipped a beat. Food Gear was my favorite restaurant, it's steam punk themed which means everyone is wearing fancy old time clothing with mechanics decorating it. I was so excited i could barely talk.

"Y-yes! That's sounds great! I'll-I'll be there at food gear-to have dinner-with-with ya!' I stammered.

"Sweet." Josh grinned. "I'll pick you up at 8:00." 

"I will be there at my house. Because where else would i be." I laughed nervously and waved before running to Kaylee. I dragged her into the car and we raced home. I told her about Josh's invitation and our dinner at Food Gear as we drove. We were able to pull together a pretty great steam punk outfit and Kaylee was beaming when we finished. 

I was so excited to go and i practically squeal when i saw a motorcycle pull into our driveway. Josh hopped off in his steampunk outfit with that signature grin of his.

I smiled and greeted Josh at the door. 

"Aye, steampunk suits you." Josh said.

"You don't look so bad yourself." I responded. The Josh extended his arm to me and with a ridiculous accent he said.

"After you, me lady." And i laughed happily then took his hand.

"Who knew a scientist could drive a motorcycle." I said climbing on.

"Im full of surprises." Josh retorted before getting on in front of me. "You'd better hold on." He added, so i awkwardly rapped my arms around his waist. Then, the engine roared and we zoomed away.
