“You didn’t make us do anything,” Chloe said. “We wanted to go.”

“Yeah, you can’t force me!” Sandro said. He flexed his tiny arm muscles. “No one can force me to do anything. Except my mom.”

“Yeah?” I asked. I took a bite of the cupcake. It was delicious.

“Yeah, we’re good, bro,” Sandro said. “But if you’re grounded, you should probably loan me some of your video games. You can borrow some comics from me in exchange.” He added, “But if you want to feel down, that’s okay too. I get down sometimes myself. Hanging out with you guys always makes me feel better.”

I had expected Sandro and Chloe to be mad at me for getting them involved in such a big mess—but they weren’t. They were comforting me, like they always did.

“Are you sure you two still want to be my friends?”

“Duh,” Sandro said. “I don’t share cupcakes with just anyone.”

“Of course, Peter,” Chloe said. “It’s not like we got grounded.”

“You two are my best friends,” I confessed. “Sometimes I worry that my crummy powers will mess that up.”

“That’s not how friendship works, Peter,” Chloe said. “We’d be your friends whether you have dumb powers, superpowers, or a big, rainbow unicorn horn.”

“You should see if you can grow a rainbow unicorn horn. I bet they grant wishes!” said Sandro, his eyes growing wide thinking about it.

Chloe pointed to the little bit of chocolate deliciousness that was sitting in front of me. “Finish that,” she said. “And let’s come up with a plan to get your brother and sister to stop bothering you—but a plan without supervillains.”

I ate the rest of the cupcake. I already felt better, thanks to my friends.
