Feeling

As soon as our teared skin touched

His mind flooded like a river into mine.

My body felt every moment of joy
Every tear he had ever cried I cried.
Every moment of pain he'd ever experienced jolted through my body sending me sprawling to the ground.
I screamed at every nightmare he'd ever had flashed through my eyes like a movie.
I relived every moment of his life.

Finally it stopped
I stumble back up and face him he stood emotionless, I know he must be confused. Why hadn't  he felt any emotions like I had?

And I know he was seeing my memories

My secrets that I've never shared.

I watched his eyes become his own and he glanced at me with a confused and worried expression painted on his face.

"You.." he stammered backing away.

I looked away.

"You killed them" he whispered

I nodded knowing lying would make no difference after he just saw what happened.

"You killed my family" he said rage filling his eyes to the brim.

I looked at my feet.

"I want to undo our bond" he said glancing at his healing palm.

I shook my head dejectedly.
"We can't do that" I replied

He looks at me shocked.

"The only way Is.." I trail off waiting for him to remember.

"To kill you" he said cringing as I think about the time I killed his parents.

Every memory I replay replayed in his head as well.

"Goodbye Gwen" he said pulling his gun out of his belt.

I raised my hands awaiting impact.

He dropped the gun and it clattered  to the ground noisily.

"Stop" he groaned holding his head

I realise he could sense how I feel and he could see my perspective unwillingly.
If he shot me it would be like he was shooting himself.

"Stop!" He groaned again as I thought about the fun times we had.

"You killed my family you must die" he said trying to block me out.

I thought about the first time we met.

I had been walking down the street when I dropped my car keys down the drain. We spent the rest of the night trying to get them out.

"Stop!!" He screamed

I sighed emptying my thoughts.

He straightened up and looked to the gun.

"If I can't kill you, I'm going to make someone else do it" he whispered before running off into an alley.

And that's why I don't make friends anymore.
They never heed my warnings.
And they always end up more messed up than before.
