Power of the mind

At Caleb's

"Em, can I come in?"

It was Charlie. He was probably disappointed in me, because I'm weak. It's hard to take control over yourself when your brain explode of chaos.

He opened slowly my chamber door and closed it after he came in. He searched a place next to me.

"I'm sorry that I hurted you." I explained.

"It's okay we all have our bad days." He tried to comfort me.

This wasn't just a bad day. This was a nightmare. I hurt my brothers, the only people who could help me, the only people who would understand how hard it is. I whished I had a different force. Maybe travelling in time to correct my mistakes.

"You are not the only one who experienced disadvantage of his powers." Charlie begin.

I frowned and looked into his eyes.

"Do you know how annoying it is to hear everyone's thoughts? Especially in a house with six. Everything that I hear is mixed up. It's so chaotic, sometimes I couldn't hear my own thoughts." He sighed heavy.

It must be hard for him, but he was able to escape his power. There was a reason why he wears those headphones every time.

"Although I escape my power a lot, I am grateful that I have them. I score straight A's every damn day." He laughed.

I smiled at him. Charlie was so kind to me.

"Alexander's hunches aren't always right, because it's hard to guess scenes and persons you have never met before. I have heard all his predictions, it even makes me anxious. Noah had difficult times too. If you want to know that, you should ask himself. "

After Charlie left my room to rest, someone else knocked on my door. 

"Emilia, you wanna go out, tonight?" Alexander asked carefully.

I wasn't in the mood.

"I'm sorry that I was so mean to you, but I just wanna protect you, you are the only sister I have. Either way we could all use some fun, after... what happened." He apologized.

This was something different.

"Guess what, I've already seen you dancing at Caleb's." He added. 

Friday evening at Caleb's. It was a bar with a large dancefloor. As always there were a lot of people dancing. Legally Noah was the only one who could go in, but he used his power, as usual, to let us in. Only Charlie wasn't with us. He doesn't like crowded places, it's to chaotic for him. He was still pretty young, next week he would turn 14. The way he acted and spoke just made him grown up.

It was the first time in months, my brothers let me do my thing. I could do whatever they wanted without them noticing, because they were too busy with other things. And with things I meant 'Women'.

Noah was dancing with a brown-haired girl. She was much older than him I knew that for sure. Their hands went on places I didn't even wanted to know. We will never know if she was willing to dance with Noah or if he influenced her. If he influenced her, I'm pretty sure you could call it rape. But Noah wasn't ugly, he actually looked very handsome. Even without his powers he could attract many woman, maybe even man.

Alex and Ethan were kissing with their girlfriend. I guess her name was Jade. I thought it was weird to share the same girl. Clearly I wasn't the only one thinking that. They didn't seen her very often, but when they did, they couldn't keep their hands to themselves.

I was dancing alone in the middle of the crowd. Until a good looking guy came over to me. He was a tall black guy with light brown eyes.

"I'm Felix, what's your name?" he asked loud enough to be understandable.

"Emilia." I answered with a smile.

He placed his hands on my hips and moved on the music. I putted my arms around his neck. I didn't know it was that easy. He pulled me closer to his chest. My good sense wasn't okay with the fact that I was dancing with a total stranger, but it felt nice.

Behind Felix, there was a middle aged man staring at us. He was standing against the wall, with a beer in his hand. His left eye was green and his right was blue. It almost looked like it didn't matched. He was a total creep, so I ignored him. 

Felix putted his lips on mine. It felt like I was sedated, like this was something I was dreaming. He withdrew, panic in his eyes. I frowned.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

While he opened his mouth, blood came out of it. I opened my eyes wide, almost shocked. The blood runed down over his white T-shirt, all the way down to the ground.

This was my fault. I tried to searched for help. But I couldn't find my brothers. The boy felt down in his own blood.

I ran away to the bathroom. There was so much light. As soon I looked into the mirror I saw myself standing covered in blood.

"Emilia!"

It was a voice I knew. Alexander was standing in front of me, Ethan came after him.

"She is panicking!" Screamed Alex.

He pulled me close.

"I killed someone... He is dead, laying down... blood everywhere..." I started.

"Em, calm down." Ethan tried to comfort me.

I showed them my hands covered in blood. Wait, my hands were clean. There was no blood.

"Did you erase my memory?" I asked Ethan.

"No! I don't even know what happened." He answered.
