You sigh in defeat as you catch another glimpse of the news playing on the television. There he is yet again being the world renowned ladies man that he has apparently "given up". You fall back onto the couch and bring your knees to your chest as you continue to watch the news. You could just feel your heart breaking more and more in your chest. You squeeze your legs trying not to cry. You knew about Johnny's past and when he asked you out he swore up and down that he "changed" because he "loved you".
Well now you could clearly see that it was all a lie. Everything you did with him was an act. You were just another girl who fell for his damn charm. These poisonous thoughts finally eroded the dam causing tears to fall down your face like waterfalls. You loved him. You still do but it hurts. It hurts knowing he does not feel the same way. It hurts knowing you were just another girl that he could check off his list.
You would leave and run from the heartache but Reed told you to stay here. Heck Johnny was not even supposed to leave the Baxter building but like everyone knows Johnny does not listen very well. The stream of tears has slowed as the ache in your chest seems to grow. Your emotions slowly start slipping from your control and your powers start to show.
You were on the spacecraft when the cloud hit it and like the other your DNA was also altered. The funny thing is while Johnny got fire, you got ice. Polar opposites.
Your powers slowly start spreading out from your spot on the couch freezing everything. Maybe you and Johnny just were not meant to be and your powers just helped prove that fact. As you continue to get lost further and further in your poisonous thoughts you did not notice Ben enter the room.
The ice has finally encased the room and traveled down the hall. Ben was the first to notice the creeping layer of ice and followed it to see if you were alright.
"(Y/N)? (Y/N)? Are you alright?" Ben questions as he slowly approaches the frozen living room.
When he gets no answer he travels further into the room where he sees you sitting on the couch, curled into a ball, watching television.
"(Y/N)?" Ben calls again.
Still no answer. He walks up to you and finally sees what you are watching. Ben curses under his breath upon seeing the arrogant asshole on the screen. He turns his gaze from the television to you trying once again to approach and comfort you.
"(Y/N), I know he is an asshole but you have to stop. Your powers are freezing everything. I am here for you. And the moment I see him I will kill him but for now you just have to reign in your emotions, okay?" Ben tries to reason.
But before Ben can get any closer the ice changes form. What once was just a smooth sheet covering the ground is now a spike sticking up out of the ground in Ben's face preventing him from coming any closer to you. Many more spikes seem to rise and surround you, as if to protect you from any more pain. Ben stares at the spike in his face with surprise and worry.
"Reed! Sue! Get in here!" Ben yells backing away from the ice spike.
As Reed and Sue rush to Ben they notice all of the ice. They share a concerned look before picking up the pace. Gasps fill the air when they finally see the current state of the living room.
"What happened?" Reed questions as he stands next to Ben gazing at you, who has been his friend for years.
"She is watching the news," Ben answers voice full of anger. "More specifically Johnny on the news."
"Oh no," Sue gasps quickly pulling up the news feed on her phone. The three gather around the phone hoping for figure out what idiotic thing the jackass is doing now. As the news continues Reed and Sue finally understand the reason behind the ice.
