When you were a teenager, you had been in an accident that resulted in you gaining superpowers. It wasn't something you ever thought possible to happen to you, very few people in the world known to have powers. You had tried to keep it a secret, not ready to be given the responsibility of being a hero but it wasn't long before you had to use your powers, letting everyone know that you weren't the normal teenager that everyone had believed you were. Some people thought it was cool to be a superhero, but they didn't really understand it and for the most part everyone feared you. Your parents kicked you out, and even your school dismissed you, for fear of you hurting their other students. You became an outsider and for years you were alone without anyone that cared or understood, not until you met Diana.

More heroes were getting known around the world, and you had been aware of Wonder Woman, but you never thought you'd meet her. She happened to be in town when you were fighting crime and together you saved the day. She was the first person who understood what you were going through, understood what the responsibility on your shoulders felt like. For the first time ever, you felt like you belonged.

The two of you became quick friends and she helped you adapt to being a real hero, how to use your powers for good and how to weigh up the stress of fighting crime and having a normal life. She gave you everything you had needed since you first got your powers.

You headed to her office with the best bouquet of flowers that you could find. You struggled to open the door and carry the vase, but you managed to get into the room. Diana looked up from her computer, cocking an eyebrow at you.

"Y/N?" She questioned.

"Hi Diana," you smiled, placing the vase on her table, although the flowers overwhelmed everything else on the desk. "I got you some flowers."

"What are these for?" She asked. "They are beautiful."

You bit your lip, worried about how to tell her about the gratitude that you had for her.

"You have done so much for me," you smiled softly. "I never thought that I could be accepted anywhere but you have provided me a safe place and I am beyond grateful that you have been there for me when I have needed someone."

Diana's fingers toyed with the petals of one of the flowers, before smiling up at you.

"You have no reason to thank me. Everyone deserves kindness but the fear of the unknown seems to control people. It shall be okay though; people's eyes are opening now to see one another for who they are without the fear of who they are."

"I know the world is getting better but I am still grateful to have you there for me when I had no one else."
