Excuses

I began panicking. Sure she really cared about me and even looked up to Sarah before the reveal but nobody else knew besides me and the other heroes. Even her family didn't know. Wiggling out of bed I held my hands up to her, "Look I need to sort things out okay? You don't say a thing to anybody!"

The excited Asian was already jumping through hero photos before gasping and showing me a picture, "Holy shit she's Scarlet! She looks the exact same at home, the glasses and clothes and everything are a strangely good cover."

I focused and imagined Mia completely dedicated to me, enough to keep this secret to the grave. Seeing her eyes soften I smiled, "I will be right back."

"Okay, babe."

Sneaking out of the room I found Sarah still watching TV, head lazily leaned back before turning to me and arching her signature eyebrow, "If you keep doing this I'm going to have to set a rule or something." I realized I had walked out in my briefs and sighed before sitting beside her. "No I'm serious, you need to-"

"Mia knows." Sarah froze and looked at me with confusion and a bit of worry. "She saw you done up looking like Scarlet and without your glasses and put two and two together. Your work at the lab, things going missing, scheduling."

Sarah sat in silence occasionally looking at my barely clothed body and turned the TV off. I knew to stay silent and let her process. "How long?"

"I don't-"

"How long?" Sarah dropped the remote forcefully and held her head in her hands. "She's been kissing up to me the past little bit, I thought it was because she liked you. I didn't know." She turned to me frowning, "She does like you right? It's not some weird thing to get to me?"

I shook my head, "She didn't click until she saw you like this and talked about today with the formula stuff. I told you being your roommate and personal photographer was a bit too much on both ends." Yeah I lied, but I was **** to save a friendship.

Sarah nodded and a long silence followed. Eventually she spoke up again. "Do you like this girl?"

"W-what?"

No longer was the expression my best friend, I could see Scarlet looking at me. "How much do you like this girl?"

"A lot. I'm amazed she liked me back. She's gorgeous and incredibly smart and sweet." I admitted holding back that she also was begging to become my ultimate fantasy girl.

The fierce expression turned defeated and Sarah nodded frowning, "Then I guess we run with it. But if you two break up I'm erasing her memory of us to be safe. I hate to do it but I- hell we can't afford people to find out. We had enough of a scare today with your safety and nobody knows about me. That's more than I'm willing to deal with already." Another awkward silence before I felt her eyes on my briefs again and she arched her eyebrow at me, "Okay maybe you should go to bed and not get too comfortable walking around practically naked shall we? Your nice to look at but I like the whole friend thing we have." Startled at her comment I turned back to her and realized she had been watching my ass as I walked away. Caught she blushed and faked a hand in front of her face. Returning to bed a half asleep Mia cuddled back into me and I passed out quickly.

5 Days Ago (Saturday)

If I knew the events over the few days would snowball how they would then obviously I would change them, I hope we all know this. I didn't mean to make Kia a mega slut for a day, or to make Nadia have some cheating fetish with a taste for my cum. Hell besides Sarah I didn't really intend any of the girls to fixate on getting their dosage. Deep down I told myself at the time I was feeding Sarah to keep my perverted desires in check, but now I know I just wanted to cross the barrier in our friendship past platonic without risking changing her. After seeing her on Friday eat the pasta Greg had made was a bit of a reality check at what really was happening and I had planned today to take responsibility for anything I had done in stupidity prior.

Mia had given me a nice relaxing blowjob to wake me up and we cuddled and kissed for a bit in bed before finally showering together and entering the living room. It was a bit late, close to noon. On the kitchen island were several take out containers and my heart sank when I saw most of them containing barely touched alfredo pasta. Mia jumped when the door slammed open, Sarah carrying four take out containers while balancing her phone on her shoulder, "No this isn't the same recipe you used the past two days. Me and my roommate both ordered from here the past two days and it was heaven and now it's...it's just pasta! You can't tell me nothing has changed, I know it has!" Dropping the take out containers onto the counter she tossed the phone, "Bitch hung up on me!"

Both of us were in shock and Sarah apparently was too angry to notice. "Uh, Sarah. You're scaring Mia."

Sarah snapped to and her anger faded into pleading, "Look I'm sorry, but you can vouch for me here. You got the pasta from the same place as I did right? Down the street, normal alfredo special. Nothing else. So why is it when I got a craving for the sauce that it tastes like shitty pasta now? I ordered from almost ten other pasta shops nearby and the same thing. I mean a few are pretty good but I want that sauce!"

I pulled Mia close to me and scanned the mess in the kitchen again in horror. "Maybe it was a lucky batch. Freak accident. They make their sauce from scratch probably. Is it so bad that you got to have it two times in your life?"

The dark haired super woman looked at me with a fierce aggression, "Yeah, Mike. Why do you think I got all these fucking pastas? I need it! And if they can't figure out how to get me that sauce then I can figure it out on my own!" With that she stormed into her bedroom.

There was a brief silence before Mia quietly spoke, "Well that was scary."

"Sorry," I apologized, throwing away whatever pasta we couldn't realistically save, "She's not normally like this. I might have fucked up."

"Oh?" Mia said walking back up to me to whisper, "Power thing?"

"Yeah," I looked at her door making sure it was closed before whispering. "Okay I'm weird and sometimes a perv just a warning."

"Yeah, and I love it get to the point," Mia giggled.

"Okay well I was carrying pasta something came over me when I heard my conservative neighbor just getting herself royally fucked and I jerked off into the sauce. Before I could throw it out she took it from me and ate it. Told me how much she enjoyed it so as a sick joke and to get my best friend kink out of my system I gave her more cum pasta last night."

Mia's eyes widened before laughing hysterically, "There's no way! You gave your roommate, a superhero, Scarlet a cum guzzling addiction?"

"What? No, I just-"

"Came in her food twice thinking how hot it would be for her to crave and enjoy it?" Mia finished.

"Fuck! My power!" I felt guilty. I swore I wouldn't use it on her and now she was addicted to the taste of my cum. To the point where she was getting aggressive.

"Do you see what I mean now about holding back and making things worse?" the old nagging Mia prodded. "I don't know why you don't just give in, make you both friends with benefits and keep any frustration from building up."

"She's been my best friend for most of my life!" I hissed, "And you expect me to be cool with just making her cool with us fucking whenever?"

Mia shrugged and threw out the pastas, "Nature of the power. She has put you in danger as Scarlet and you chose to stay understanding that's just part of the deal being her friend. You might have trouble having platonic relations with women from here on, especially monogamous relations. That's your end of the deal now. You can tell her or you can let it happen on its own terms. Up to you."

Frowning I had grabbed a paper and wrote the names of four women, then six. Nadia had a similar reaction to my cum and also seemed keen on practicing sex with other guys favoring me. Kia was mostly solved, she just was attracted to me and enjoyed teasing me and knew we had amazing sex yesterday. Mia was my girlfriend which she wanted already, but I had made her incredibly loyal and devoted to the point of keeping our identities a secret to the grave. Realizing the danger in that I turned to Mia and focused on just understanding how important it was to keep our secrets. Mia looked over at Sarah's door and looked a lot more bothered than before. "What's wrong?"

"I like you a lot," Mia started nervously, "And I get this whole relationship with a super is going to get weird but Sarah really scared me there. We need to figure something out there or I don't feel comfortable coming here anymore." Thank god, weird consequence of wording was solved at least for her now. Her enjoying teasing me was fine especially as my girlfriend. That then left the weird encounter in the garage with the hot milf and her daughter. All I had said was good morning and hoped she didn't get mad about us fucking. Was that also why it seemed only Sarah got mad at Kia for being loud yesterday or were they still gone? Still probably harmless.

That left Sarah. The amount of times he thought crude things about his friend the past two days was hard to keep up. However the obvious one was making her obsessed with the taste of my cum. She also seemed flirtier, and weirdly comfortable with appreciating each others bodies. Besides the cum issue the other ones seemed okay and innocent at least. It was either time to come clean and explain why she was obsessed with pasta sauce, or to lie and free her of her craving. Either way she wasn't coming out of this happy.
