Every day was the same routine. Wake up, go to school, play basketball, come home and do homework. It was a fairly normal life for a teenager, though, some days, he wished for more excitement.
But he promised his parents that he wouldn't use his powers.
He could still pass. No one even suspected that he was a mutant. All he had to do was hide in plain sight, and he'd be alright.
No one was hunting him, like the other mutants. No one hated and feared him. Thanks to his parents influence, he wasn't even listed as one of the 198.
As long as no one knew who and what he really was, he was safe. As long as he hid that part of himself from the world, nothing bad would ever happen to him. As long as he didn't take a chance, it couldn't fall apart on him. And as long as he continued to do be the son that his parents wanted him to be, he'd be loved.

He'd just never be himself.
