Nat is the definition of a bitch. With Hypnosis. She doesn't like being wrong either. After being kidnapped by superhumans that want her on their team but bore her with their sob stories and make her feel upset. She makes a wicked decision to prove...
I woke up crying with a concerned Nick hovering over me. 'Nightmare?' He asked. 'Nightmare.' I confirmed. 'Well as you're back now I was wondering if you could give me a favour. You see for my class I'm doing photography and could really use a model.' He asked shyly. 'Sure' I croaked, rubbing my eyes. 'Meet me here in 10min. Is there anything you want me to wear?' I asked untangling myself from my sheets. 'Nah, I'll be back in 10.' Nick said going through my wall. Creepy.
I put on a black tee and some worn out jeans. Simply brushing my hair and washing my face I applied raspberry gloss to my lips and foundation over my tear stains. Then I made my bed and waited for Nick. A minute before he was expected he came drifting through my wall. 'C'mon I wanna take you somewhere.' He said and beckoned me to follow. We exited the building and hopped in a black SUV waiting at the door.
The car trip took 5 hours. Though it did go incredibly fast. From catchy songs, to toilet stops, to Maccas drive thru's we had the time of our lives. Almost making me forget about the horrible things. Almost.
We arrived at sunset to wherever we were. Nick took out some fairy lights and placed them in my hands. 'Just hold them close to your face and stand over there.' He instructed pointing to a couple of metres away there was an open space of concrete. He positioned his camera and took a picture. 'Perfect ' He grinned, beckoning for me to look.

'We traveled all this way to take one picture!' I exclaimed laughing. 'Yup' Nick said smiling warmly. 'Well I also wanted to chat' he admitted.
'Well go ahead' I said smiling as I sinking feeling built in my stomach. 'I know you aren't okay. It was a stupid idea and point you tried to prove and while you may have convinced some people, minus me, Rebecca and Bucky I know you did awful things when you were with the other group. I know you are too scared to admit this and are acting that you're alright when you really aren't.' He blurted. My smile faltered.
'Can I trust you?' I whispered, accepting defeat. 'Yes' said Nick confidently.
'Well I did do bad things.' I admitted. 'Oh there were these twins. Two beautiful girls, no older than 10. They were gorgeous. I killed them the first week I was there. Then I killed their parents the next week.' I said as tears ran down my face. I lent on Nicks shoulder. ' I killed so many people. I killed orphans and adults and family. I killed my neighbours, brother, teacher, best friend and parents.' I sobbed, burying my head in Nicks chest as he stroked my hair. 'I didn't cry though. I didn't make a sound. I didn't even apologise or say I loved them as I shot them.' I said choking on tears.
'I put myself in a stupid situation because I hated the way you called me a bitch, even though it was true. I hated how you took me away. That day I saved my class from an intruder and was eligible for a detention. You took away me happiness and made me scared. I was scared to think as Rebecca could hear me, I was scared as you could come through my walls. Bucky was spying on me, I knew it. When you all attacked me I was terrified. I couldn't stop you until you hurt me. My powers couldn't save me. So I laughed and acted like a didn't care. I put myself in a locked deal that ruined me. And now you guys, the people I wanted to get away from I have to rely on as I killed everybody else.' I gasped taking a breath. I had told Nick more than intended. My numb heart now ached with regret, horror and realisation. I bawled out my eyeballs.
Nick kissed me on the forehead and pulled me into a hug. 'What do I do Nick', I wailed, hugging him back.
'I'm sorry' he murmured. 'I'm so sorry. You aren't a bitch. And you aren't alone. It will be ok'. He said also tearing up.
We just sat there and cried. Then we drove home in silence. Not stopping once.
Once I got home I took a shower and went straight to bed.
