Roles Reversed (Season 3/Part 1)

4.

Instantaneously, Billy was worried. As soon as he heard his scared girlfriend on the phone, and was interrupted by the abrupt sound of the dial tone, he knew something was wrong. Billy searched around for y/n, anywhere he could think of.

Passing of streets, her house and even his, no luck. He didn't want to stop. He had to continue but sleep defeated him for now. It was the middle of the night when he finally fell asleep. His last stop was the lake, lovers lake. Memories flooded his mind.

-flashback
"Come on... an empty, quiet lake. It's all to our selves." Billy exaggerated his hands as he tried to convince y/n to swim with him.
"Fuck it, you're right... No one's here anyways." Y/n responded as she stripped her clothes away. Billy didn't expect her to become fully nude, but he didn't oblige either. He ran in after her, her body swimming into the water first. He felt happy, alive even. He swam out with y/n as stared at her perfect appearance. The bottom of her pony tail slightly dripping with water. The moon light peeking off of her facial features, making her eyes gleam effortlessly. She was beautiful... His beautiful girlfriend.
"I love you." Billy whispered, almost surprised by himself. Did he mean to say it, was it an accident? Y/n looked at him shocked for a moment but a quick smirk clung to her lips.
"I love you." She said in between the biggest smile you've ever seen. Deep down y/n couldn't believe she was in love. Yet, your heart can't lie about the truth.
-End flashback

The fond memory was from months ago. They had gone to the lake many times since, it was there spot. They had been officially dating for four months then. It was only three months ago, how time flies by. That was the last thing he remembered thinking before he drifted into sleep, on accident.

Y/n + flayed pov

The best way I can explain my circumstance, is that I'll black out and be somewhere completely different. I don't even feel like me. Once I wake up, wherever I am, I'll look around and see people I know or a familiar place but I can't do much. For instance, I was at the pool today. I don't remember how I got here or when. So, I walked up to the stand and sat in my chair. What else am I supposed to do? I feel awful and hot, more than usual. As if the sun is torching my skin. Did someone drug me? I swear that's what it feels like. Everything around me is too much, too bright, too loud... What's happening to me?!

I couldn't take the heat anymore so I ran into the locker room. The showers will surely cool me off. I slide down the wall and let the water fall over my face. This feels better than the heat outside. Maybe I'm just sick. How did I even get home last night? I remember my motorcycle was busted. I can't comprehend anything. God my heads killing me.

A part of my arm is still burning. I view it and see, what looks like, black veins cover my upper arm. What the fuck? I touch it and scream in pain. I swear I can see flashes of some monster... some...thing. I knew it had to be aliens... Are they taking me over? What the hell is going on!?
"Y/n?" A hear my name being said. I don't plan on getting up, I feel like I can't do anything. Heather leans down to my size.
"Take me to him." I hear Heather say.
"What?" I ask, utterly confused.
"I asked if you're hurt. I heard screaming. Do you need an ambulance?" Heather asks. I seriously can't control my thoughts or actions. Something is forcing me to think and do things. As if I'm looking through a window, viewing what it's making me do. All I can do is see it. It makes me grab Heather by the throat and knock her out.

Whatever 'it' is, made me take Heather. It waited til after the pool closed. Taking her car was the most reasonable solution, since my motorcycle was smashed and well, not here. We ended up at the warehouse again. Exactly where I once was taken and forced to be. I had to lay her on the ground, so she can be taken over too. Guess I'm building an army.
"Don't be afraid, it'll be over soon. Just stay very still." It said through me. I untaped her mouth. We both heard the screeching sound of the monster, but I wasn't able to view it. I feel like a murderer... Is she going to die? Suddenly, it makes me turn my head to the left of me. I'm extremely confused, I felt like I could see something or someone there but there was no one. This thing was way too concerned on it, however.

Max & El

Max and El played a simple game of spin the bottle. This time the rules were different. The girls used El's powers for their advantage. So, they'd spin a bottle around names and whoever it landed on, she'd spy on. Why not? The young girls just wanted to have some innocent fun. That is until El became scared by the unknown. As they spun the bottle around the many names, it landed on y/n. To them known as Billy's cool girlfriend. She was popular, nice to most and mean to the ones who deserved it. Like a role model to Max, she wanted to be as badass as y/n was.

El was ready and prepared, even though Max warned her about 'noises'. Saying if she saw something crazy or confusing to jump out immediately. To younger minds, it was all pure innocence. To the eldest ones, it was funny.

As soon as she went into her trance, she noticed y/n's motorcycle. It was completely wrecked. Then she saw a red car, parked beside it. Once her vision takes her to the next place, she's way too curious. She hears grunting and groaning. If Max heard this, she'd probably leave, assuming the worst.

El notices a sweaty y/n as she stands up before Heather's body. Heather was tied down, on the ground. Y/n stared at El, as if she could see her. That immediately startled El so she jumped out of her trance and back into reality. She hyperventilated in fear. Max questioned her as blood ran down El's nose.
